The studio itself is so cute, super clean & has such a warm feminine welcoming vibe. Everyone was beyond sweet and made me feel really comfortable. Salem did my back dermals & they ended up being more difficult than expected (superrr painful) but she was extremely patient & handled everything with so much care & compassion. I've been having a rough few months mentally & I got these to cheer myself up so it meant a lot :) You can tell they truly care about their clients and creating a safe environment. I would definitely recommend to anyone. I wish they allowed videos bc Id love to promote!!! people need to know about this gem of a place

W ent two months ago to get a jewelry change done. Pretty sure they put the wrong size in since it…read morestill hurts. Messaged them about coming in and was told to come in. Let them know I'd be coming after work (literally told them I get off at 7:15 in Elgin) she said sounds good. Yesterday I get there at 7:45 and they were gone! No one was there. Called and sent them a fb message. Not once did anyone mention they stop taking walk in at 7:30pm. I drove 25 min each way. Gas is around $5 a gallon. Their response was even crazier. Blaming being short staffed on Sunday but that was irrelevant. Then also told me I have to pay for new jewelry even if it is their fault on sizing. I wanted to love them so bad. The shop is so cute and the girls are sweet. But the lack of communication is ridiculous. Especially since I messaged them before 7:30pm yesterday to say I'm coming!

Being from the area I've known about Ink 180 from chatter in the community and the awesome work…read morethey do for those looking to turn their lives around, so when looking to get my daith & cartilage pierced I knew I wanted to come here to help with their cause. Lisa was so incredibly welcoming, sweet, and knowledgeable. I've never had anything other than my lobes pierced before, so I didn't know what to expect. She made me feel so comfortable during the entire process and I'm so happy with how my new piercings turned out! Thank you Lisa & Ink 180!

I went to PMA for a double daith piercing. I was nervous when I walked in but something about the…read moreplace set me at ease. Gregory Charles was extremely professional, articulate, thorough, friendly, and honest. He expressed concern that my ears were shaped in a way that could change the way the piercing fit. I got them specifically as a hail Mary trying to help my migraines so how they looked was not my primary concern. He was very clear that there is no evidence that daith piercings help migraines. Greg was patient, spent a lot of time going back and forth with me deciding if I should get the piercing, and then choosing the right jewelry. Getting pierced was not nearly as scary or painful as people make it seem. Yes, the daith is uncomfortable to get pierced, and pain is different for everyone, but it was like a 5/10 for me maybe, and I'm not *that* tough. They are SO serious about being clean and sanitary that when I was leaving I dropped my hair clip on the floor. They picked it up for me and *sanitized it before giving it back*. I was done and leaving and it was just a hair clip. But that's how much they care. All these reviews about how clean and sanitary they are are not just hype. This place really lived up the the reviews. The jewelry was WAY MORE expensive than I expected. But, for the quality of experience I paid the higher prices. I felt kind of stuck to spend more money since you have to leave a daith in for a year so you want to like the ring you choose. But, no regrets. :) Parking is easy. Staff is friendly. The waiting room is comfy. The entire experience was great. I'm going back and bringing my boyfriend to get pierced too. Fan for life. :)

From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff was so knowledgeable, patient, and kind--they really put me at ease. You have to put down a deposit while booking an appointment and it later goes towards the cost of the tattoo. I saw Bobby for my tattoo, and he was amazing! Professional, down to earth, and made me feel completely comfortable in the chair. The shop itself is clean and welcoming, and they even had the aftercare lotion available for just $5, which made things so easy. I couldn't have asked for a better first tattoo experience. Highly recommend this shop and especially Bobby!

He helps you to feel at ease. Yesterday I got pierced for the 2nd time by him. The first time was to repierce my belly button after a tummy tuck. When I first went to have it done he educated me on how it was too soon to do it and my body would probably reject it. He advised me to come back in a few months and see if it could be done then. I did just that and he pierced it beautifully. No rejection. Yesterday I had him add a piercing to each ear. He patiently listened while I thought over and over about exactly where I wanted them. (Move it a little this way, move it a little that way) It is possible that I went with the original location that he chose. They look great.

At one point he even had the nerve to WALK to the speedway which is a half mile at least down the road. Said he would do a free touch up but when I came back to get it touched up he got all whiny and then said he would only do the touch up while doing a new tattoo and even says he doesn't really like the design I showed for the new tattoo. So unhappy with the service I've gone and had the tattoo re done elsewhere because every time I looked at it I would get irritated and the memory of Dan Coralto effing me over.
