My best friend wanted to get his eyebrow re-pierced and he found atmosphere tattoo online. We went…read morein on Wednesday afternoon and the piercer hadn't gotten there yet. So we came back about an hour or so later and ended up having to still wait a little bit but, they have a large, comfortable, and very clean waiting area! They also have water bottles available to customers, which I think is smart at any tattoo shop. Everyone was super nice. They run the facility very professionally. By the time the piercer got there, he had a few people waiting other than us but was great about taking his time with my friend. Chris was very nice, professional and extremely clean. He made sure to ask my friend what exactly he wanted and it was quick and painless and affordable! I am loyal to my tattoo artist but if I ever needed somewhere new to check out I would definitely go back. I plan on returning to that piercer to get my nose done! So if you're looking for a nearby trustworthy tattoo shop, definitely check them out. I'll share a few pictures of the waiting area. I did not get pictures during the piercing process because it's a pretty small room.

She was extremely professional and kind. Jade made my tattoo experience like no other, I will most definitely be back! Not to mention it felt like we were just girls catching up which is a bonus for an overstimulated mom! The tattoo had also been healing beautifully!

After calling around to a few tattoo and piercing shops in the Schaumburg area, I happened to call…read moreThe Piercery--and I'm so glad I did. Debbie answered the phone and immediately stood out. She took the time to thoroughly explain the Daith piercing to me, walking me through what to expect, how to prepare, and what aftercare would involve. Her patience and knowledge made me feel so comfortable and reassured that I decided to book with her right away. When I arrived, everything was just as she described--clean, professional, and welcoming. The entire experience exceeded my expectations. I'm already looking forward to coming back to get my other ear pierced. If you're considering a piercing and want someone who truly takes the time to educate and care for their clients, I highly recommend The Piercery. It's definitely a hidden gem in the area--totally worth the drive!

I'll admit, I originally planned to get pierced at Rowan Target. After talking with an experienced…read morefriend, she convinced me to go to a real piercing shop and I am so glad I listened. This piercing shop is located inside of a strip mall that is somewhat a journey to find. You walk in and are met with basically what looks like a flea market but indoors! Angels Body Piercing is right at the front. I was so extremely nervous because my main concern with any piercing is cleanliness and sterilization. The last thing I wanted was an infection. Maria was absolutely amazing. Very clean! Changes gloves and a whole wipe down between customers as they should. You're given hand sanitizer to clean your hands. Your ears are properly cleaned with an alcohol swab. All jewelry is packed in their own small sterile packages. My first piercing I had since I was a baby was uneven. Despite that, Maria was able to make my new piercing nice and even! The pain was not bad at all. The earrings are screwed on so they don't get undone. She was quick and so very kind to my nervousness. Maria truly is the best and I would recommend her to anyone. I also appreciate that when I asked a few questions, she made it a point to tell my friend and I that they cannot answer any questions over the phone about the piercings. The reason being is that no pictures or videos are suffice- they want you to come in so they can carefully examine it and direct you as accurate as possble (such as if you must go seek medical attention). This shows to me that they truly care about their customers and are not dismissive and this policy is very ethical! Overall, I loved my experience. I'll be the first to admit- I originally thought it was shady from looking at it at first and was going to back out. I'm glad I didn't because they are all wonderful and they know what they're doing. I guess my only note would be the price point. I referred to their website which was great that it stated $25 per ear, with extra cost for different earrings. I chose to upgrade which added another $15 per ear. No problem. The only issue is that there's an additional cost if you use credit card, I wish this was disclosed on their website. About $10 for both ears. I also had thought that the piercing came along with the care kit that some places usually provide. That was another $25. Plus tip, which I felt was well deserved. All in all, it cost $127.80 which was way higher than I anticipated. Still, it was a great service, and I love my second ear piercing. I have no regrets. Please come support Angels Body Piercing! Ask for Maria, she is the best!

Greetings! What do…read moreyou know about the local legends in the Northwest Suburbs.? Today's installment features Bead World, an absolute gem and what I truly love about local small business owners. I first learned about Bead World when our daughter got her ears pierced for the first time. Bobby was everything this over protective father needed to allay any first piercing jitters that I had... Our daughter had her second piercings done at Bead World and suffice to say that Bobby is a consummate professional in the world of piercing. He explained the entire process, focused on sterilization techniques, and put our minds at ease in every way possible. He is truly gifted for this role. The shop is spotless and the piercing process took place with precision. Aside from the piercing aspect of Bead World, the namesake hobby of beading is well represented as far as this beading noob can discern. Theres something for everyone at Bead World...so you'll never know what you'll find. Last time I was there I bought a spectacular totem pole! Hats off to this family-run neighborhood gem! Until next time...tk

On the rework for my old tattoo, there was more pain than on the first one-- being scar tissue and what not. Andrew was dope and talked me through it, he came in clutch when I needed it! Thanks dude. The line work on my new piece is so pretty! He took his time setting up and following sanitation processes, which I loved. They use these dope bandages, similar to what they stick an IV on you with in the ER, I don't recall the proper name. Anyway, this guy's got a great hand and was super gentle, and super chill. I read reviews regarding bad customer service, and I mean, I didn't get that at all. One guy there, I didn't catch his name, was super extroverted and i would dare say bordered on social butterfly level, while everyone else seemed more introverted. You know what, that's okay, not everyone has to be extroverted. I enjoyed my experience a lot. And can't wait to go back. Thanks y'all!
