Pete Escobedo (owner?) met with me twice today while I tried redeem a gift certificate my wife…read morepurchased on 04/18/2023 (see photo) as a birthday gift for me. Pete informed me that it was his policy that he will not honor this gift certificate-nor would he honor ANYONES' gift certificate, regardless of the amount, once a year from the purchase date has passed. He further informed my wife and I that this happens frequently and that "he cannot make an exception for anyone otherwise everyone would want an exception." After learning that state and federal consumer protection laws require a business to honor gift certificates for five years from the date of purchase of said certificate, I, out of respect for him, went back for a second visit and asked him if he would honor the gift certificate given the consumer protection laws. Pete responded by telling me I was threatening him and also told me I was being recorded on video. I was completely calm throughout the interaction, and also made a recording. He then told me that "he didn't have time for this" and asked me to leave the premises. He also stated I should never return. I would never purchase a gift certificate from this business nor this individual. His work appears to be great. It's unfortunate we could not come to some agreement, as I tried multiple times. He informed me that if I don't like his policy, I should sue him. Unfortunately his policy does not supersede state or federal law. During this interaction, Pete also moved into my personal space. I let him know that I had recorded the interaction as well. His physical presence made me uncomfortable as I was ordered off the premises for requesting the redemption of a gift certificate. The video and audio recording serves as verification of his words and actions as well as my calm approach despite him claiming I had threatened him. DO NOT BUY GIFT CERTIFICATES FROM THIS PLACE EVER!!! Did I mention he also said they are non-transferable to any other person? The business only accepts cash as well, and after 1 year, you can wipe yourself with for life's gifts certificates, so give cash instead!

His jewelry prices are extremely expensive and I've dropped a pretty penny on many pieces. My daughter wanted her jewelry changed with a surgical steel earring she brought. He refused saying he won't put something like that in her ear. He even told me that he didn't do our piercings. Don't know what crawled up his a** but we won't be back.

0/10 recommend Divine Tattoo. I went here on Tuesday of this week to get my tongue pierced and oh…read moremy god I regret it. I am writing this review today because I went back in to the shop to have the owner look at it and his response was "I am not a piercer so I can't tell you anything." So ask yourself before you go here and get pierced by them "Do I want to get messed up permanently or do I want to go some place where I can get my cute new piercing and not go through hell?" The lady at this shop went through my muscle and was darn near close to hitting one of my main veins in my tongue. All the owner said was "she was trying to miss the webbing". Look at my tongue which now has permanent muscle damage. Thank you Divine I appreciate your owner not giving an F about his business. One last thing, one of his employees told him he'd answer the phone and the owner said right in front of me and my boyfriend and other clients "F that phone" so if you want to go here, be my guest just know you are more likely to have permanent damage done to you at this particular shop.

My butterfly is still beautiful and she tells me, so is hers.
