Thanks for a great experience!

I came in to get a year-old helix piercing changed from a flat-backed stud to a hoop and was told…read moreit could be done. The studio where I got it done originally put the stud on very tight. Something was clearly wrong. Instead of stopping, I went through an incredibly painful removal and jewelry change process at Evil By The Needle. I was told constantly by employee they were "sorry this is so uncomfortable," as I was biting back curses and experienced pain much worse than the original piercing. I bled a considerable amount and experienced a lot of discharge that I haven't in months. It is clear now that it has not healed (and was under stress), but that was not the impression given as the employee lightheartedly told me that I could "get away" with a hoop being put on. Original jewelry was given to me uncleaned with blood on it in a bag. I hope I am wrong but I do not trust that this type of piercing will be done properly here in general. In trying to fix it, another studio let me know the way the piercing exited my ear made it so jewelry put too much pressure on it. Serious irritation resulted. I do not blame Evil By The Needle for the mistake of the previous studio, but they should not have moved forward putting in their jewelry, which was also far too large for my ear and the seam where the hoop closed did not meet. It was jagged enough to tear up my ear further. Helix piercings can easily have complications, but my situation was not helped by my experience here. Though it is not infected, I wish I had been told the seriousness of the situation and given advice on how to proceed. I needed to start over and let the area heal. Instead, a needlessly painful situation was furthered... and they let me shop at their studio for new jewelry to put in. I seriously urge anyone getting riskier piercings to look somewhere else for expertise and guidance on their proper handling. If you have concerns get a second opinion! Mistakes like this can be serious!

I've been holding off on this review for 5 years. But, that's how long I've had this horrible…read moretattoo on me; for 5 years now. 2 attempts to cover it up by other artists. 7 tattoo removal sessions. And 1 therapy sessions. I know it may sound silly, but this is permanently on my body. And 5 years later I'm still trying to get it off of me. The amount of time, pain, and money I've been through over this. As a fellow artist, and a person who previously had tattoos before coming in... stepping in there was one of my biggest regrets. I won't name this person but I still see their name pop up in reviews. I really hope you did better to those who came after me.

I have gotten multiple pieces of Art from Dave. It's Art not just a tattoo. My first was a…read moreportrait of my son. Second was a full color leg piece of a turkey in full strut. My third piece is a memorial half sleeve for my parents who have passed away. You pay for what you get and I cant recommend this shop ( especially Dave) for all your tattoo/Art needs. Be prepared to wait as he is in high demand. Usually takes 6 months to get started. This is all custom so don't expect to walk in and walk out with a new piece the same day. But it's worth the wait and the cost.

I'm planning to stop in again soon to get some irises added next to my lily of the valley.
