I've had absolutely amazing tattoo work done by Cristian. The shop is always SO clean and their safety/health standards are extremely high. I definitely recommend this shop.

Called ahead to make sure they had a piercer on-duty, and Joey took care of me with the most gentle and kind approach for a tragus. Super clean shop with the nicest people. Would definitely come back again when I am in the area!

I came in to get a naval piercing and left with that and a tattoo. It's all great vibes and energy here ! The staff is so professional and friendly. The environment is completely clean and sterile. I have a deeper skin tone and was very worried about finding an artist who would be able to efficiently tattoo me! Thank you so much Benny for the tattoo I'll be back soon for more. Extra special thanks to Joey for taking his time to ensure proper placement and well as efficient aftercare instructions along with a card with recommended gauge sizes for when I'm ready to replace the ring. Great job Salt & Light! Thanks so much for an epic experience !

I connected with these folks to get my first tattoo situation together, and they were so kind and accommodating from the very start. Super chill and friendly vibes, and all the artists there were very welcoming. Good inventory of piercing items too. I requested work from Gonzo, and I had a really awesome experience! He was very gentle, and efficient. Will most DEFINITELY be back!

I've gotten a nostril and septum piercing here; Joey did my septum and he had a very calming, professional presence. He explained the piercing and healing process thoroughly, which was very comforting if you're like me and need to understand how things work ANDY (Moth)! free-handed the lovely strawberry vine tattoo, he was so sweet and attentive to make sure I got exactly what I wanted with the design and consulted me about every detail he wanted to add. Love love loved the experience and his creativity ! Most recently I got my first "realism" style tattoo by Gonzo. He really took the time to make sure the stencil was perfectly placed, and he was so patient with me. Also he'll serenade you when ur writhing in pain :D *all healed beautifully!* Cannot recommend this place enough shoutout all u guys for being so sweet

This spot came highly recommended from friends but mostly my trusted niece. She came here to get her eyebrow piercing and raved about their services. With several locations, we preferred the Tempe location. Super easy to schedule an appointment online and quick forms to complete before your appointment. I opted to get my nose pierced and potentially two more ear piercings. The selection of jewelry varies from affordable to really high end solid gold. The receptionist was so knowledgeable and wonderful at making suggestions for my choices. Love her style and she was spot on in matching my vibe. I loved being able to mix my metals of gold, silver and rose gold. For me, I wanted higher quality and fashionable pieces so my total was over $700 with the piercings and jewelry. They also had MDW sale discount of 20% but that eventually went as my tip to my piercer Josh. He is super cool and very thorough. Made me feel comfortable and laughing. My niece had Aubrilynn and loved her. As for the piercing, it is not painful at all. If you can take waxing or plucking, it's easy peasy! There is a little soreness on my left ear but it went away after treating myself to Taiwanese pancakes and jelly tea. You should purchase the saline solution to keep your piercings clean. Accessories are the exclamation point to your outfit. So if you're up for it, get pierced here with any of their incredible staff. To me, overdressed is a myth invented by those who have never been fabulous.

You can immediately tell they care about their craft and their clients. Vania was so kind and warm -- she made me feel comfortable right away, which meant a lot because I was honestly a little overwhelmed (in the best way). The energy in the studio is just amazing. The amazing Manuel Flores did my two tragus piercings with the utmost care and precision. He explained everything clearly, made sure the placement was perfect, and was so gentle and professional throughout the entire process. Chancla did my tattoo and gave the BEST advice and recommendations on placement. I trusted their guidance completely, and I'm so glad I did -- it came out even better than I imagined. This was truly the best experience I've ever had getting tattoos and piercings. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!

I will absolutely be coming back to get some other piercings I want once these are healed. Experience 10/10 which I cant say about other places near by.
