I've come to Black Cloud twice now for a third ear lobe piercing and a small nostril stud. Both…read morevisits with the piercers were great!! They have always been friendly and easy to talk to. They make the process as quick as possible and keep everything sanitized. The service and jewelry are all at great prices as well. I would have rated 5/5 stars but I noticed that they frequently tell customers inaccurate waiting times. Of course, a waiting time is never guaranteed but they often under quote the wait. I, along with customers to had entered the store after me, were told that the wait would be about 20 minutes but each time it was at least one hour or more, especially if there are others waiting in front of you. I had a dinner reservation that I was luckily able to push back at the last minute due to this. This was the only con I personally experienced here! I would absolutely recommend visiting Black Cloud for any of your piercings! Just keep in mind that if there are a few others ahead of you, the wait time will probably a little longer than 20 minutes!

POOR experience!!! This place is terrible. Poor customer service. I was ripped off. I went in to…read moreget ink touched up and colored in of a tattoo I already have. I was not told the price till my appointment. They wanted 600 dollars. Right now I should have walked out and got my deposit back. I finally negotiated the amount down to get some of my arm tattooed. They literally charged me three hundred and sixty dollars. Including tax to only get very little color shaded in and outlined. I paid less than that to get my half sleeve tattooed. Not only was Leilani not professional but she tried to charge me more before I caught her doing what she did. I thought she was nice at first. Ohhh was I wrong. She told me my tattoo looked horrible and we can make it look a lot better for this price. The lady who tattooed me was nice and I could tell was uncomfortable with the pricing that she was not in control of. Leilani wife of Al was not at all concerned about my experience. I was very unhappy with my results. I would never recommend anyone to you guys. I have already persuaded several people to not go there. You guys need to go back up north. People in the south are real hard working people that don't appreciate getting walked on. You guys are not fair. Stop thinking you guys are sooo cool that you can over price people. Hey college kids don't go there you will get ripped off. There are a lot of better places to go to that will give you a better experience and a fair price. Go see nacho. Love him!!! Excellent work and skin stations in Monroe. I am very disappointed in this place. I was hoping I would meet real people who care about the experience and want repeat customers. I never felt that at all and I have a lot of tattoos and experience and this place is be far the worst place I ever have gone to get a tattoo. They don't even deserve one star. No one should pay 150 for an hour with anyone to get a tattoo. I don't care if you have been in tv. You guys are awful and I hope you lose business and people read my review.

Took my daughter here for a belly button piercing for the first time. And I have to say that the…read morejob was done professionally and quickly. The setting was on spot and centered very well. No infection and it was a clean and almost "her words" painless process. I would recommend this place because it was very clean and very professional. I saw some of the skin art being done and I have to say that I will be getting my next tat there. Prices are fair and the artistes there are really above what I expected. Don't think I will be going anywhere else. I am set to take my other daughter there soon to do the same thing. Trust me when I say that the woman in charge of the piercings is very professional and kind and very thoughtful of her customers. And she will go above and beyond your expectations. Go see them! You will not be disappointed.

I had already read rave reviews about her and her work, so I felt super comfortable with her! Not once did I question the sanitation of the environment or any of their methods. She was very informative and knowledgeable and explained everything I needed to know. This is my second nostril piercing, so she took extra time and care into lining up the two piercings as much as possible. She did a fantastic job! Detailed aftercare instructions were provided (LITHA - leave it the hell alone!) I can't be happier and I highly recommend Tee for any of your body piercing needs!!
