    The 1-Star is for the very good piercing artist in the studio. He did my eyebrow, and I was very…read moreexcited about it and loved it he did a great job! The tattoo artist on the other hand, is a narcissist, and a cant-make-no-mistake attitude. As you will see with the pictures below, he failed miserably. Stating that "if I waited for it to heal, the colors would subside and the picture he stenciled would come out truly looking like the picture I gave him. This is completely now true. Afterwards I asked for my money back,, and obviously the money back ($80) he held for the next session. Of which I think he. Would have easily given me back to help with my lasering. But he denied this, stating that what I signed was a legally binding contract. What that clearly means, is if he messed up, you still have to pay him. Rest assured, my lawyer will be on top of this. Even if it was for a measly $300. I think I deserved it all back. Here are my pictures, I'll let you decide... If I were you, I'd choose someone else like Amber Downing, Brock or Dustin in Decorah. If you want a silly emoticon, then go to Juno at Eternal Ink. His attitude towards me was disgusting, narcissistic, unapologetic, and rude. If I could upload the conversation I recorded between us, trust me I would. Lastly, he told me I was superimposing her face/head... And I agreed. Yes I was. Here's the definition of superimposing: **Superimposing a tattoo involves digitally adding a tattoo design onto a photograph of a person's skin, creating a realistic mock-up before the actual tattoo is applied. This technique allows individuals to visualize how a tattoo would look on their body and experiment with different designs and placements. It's also used for creating cover-up designs or adding details to existing tattoos. So to this understanding, I wanted the dog superimposed because it would have showed her likeness. A "realistic mock-up". I think the guy has lost his touch, and his nerve while considering all the bullshit he put me through and making me feel like I didn't go to Art School at UNI and then Kansas City Art Institute.

    I got my ears re-pierced at Eternal Ink Tattoos Inc. about a week ago; one lobe piercing on each…read moreear. I had them pierced before but hadn't worn earrings in over five years, so they had closed up. From the moment I arrived, the owner (who also did my piercings) was welcoming and professional. I was a little nervous because my previous piercing experience elsewhere wasn't great; it was painful and not done well. But this time it was a completely different experience! The owner was super friendly, made me feel comfortable, and was incredibly skilled. The process was so quick and painless that I didn't even realize he was done until he told me! Now, a week later, I've had no pain, no issues, and I'm so happy with my piercings. If you're looking for a great place to get pierced, I highly recommend Eternal Ink Tattoos Inc. The owner genuinely cares about his customers and ensures a great experience!

    Eternal Ink Tattoos & Body Piercing - This is what I wanted it to look like. A simple white Lab, in some trees. With a banner and ribbon below it.

    This place is located on the lower level of Thunder Ridge Mall. You basically walk into a deserted…read moremall (which adds to the ambiance) and inside is this cool retro looking barber shop. I arrived a couple of minutes early and Laura was finishing up a man's haircut. He and his buddy were finishing up (complimentary) beer. They appeared to really enjoy the place. Laura did a hot neck shave when she finished the gentleman's cut - apparently that is included with all men's cuts. The place is very cool. The decor is super retro, but not junky at all. The chairs are huge and comfortable. This is a barber shop, but she does offer other services, too. I went in for a color and cut. I showed Laura pictures of what I was hoping for, acknowledging that my hair wasn't quite the length or color of the girl in the photos I asked Laura her thoughts on doing something similar. She didn't even hesitate and was very confident. Laura is easy to chat with and super laid back. When Laura finished with my hair I was VERY pleased with the results. She clearly listened to what I wanted and was able to make it a reality. I was very pleased with the service and the price - I'll definitely return. **note that this is a tattoo and barber shop, but as of time of writing, there is not currently a tattoo artist there**

    What a solid little barbershop! Miss Laura was a saint and was able to get me in between two…read moreappointments (they offer online appointments). For only $20 I got a great haircut, exactly the way I wanted it, and a perfect fade (which is much easier said than done). Family friendly environment, old-time barbershop vibe, and I would definitely recommend for any male haircuts. Well done!
