He also provides amazing priced as everything is cheaper than anywhere else and the discounts that are provided for getting multiple piercings are even better the vibe here was amazing and he provided perfect service read more

100% best place to take your kid to get a simple ear piercing. Clean, friendly, and super accommodating. Thank you! ​​

Super happy with my new and special tattoo. Henry at Shooting Ink in Grass Valley has a gentle touch and an artist eye and hand. He explains and listens. A content client! read more

Look at this bad ass tattoo my hubby just got! Henry was quick and the placement is top notch. It blends well with his other collection and it was exactly what he had in mind. He was easy to work with. 10/10. read more

Shooting Ink Tattoo And Piercing - Look at this bad ass fucking tattoo my hubby just got! - Tattoo Near Me - Grass Valley, California

Actually, my husband, Don, used this business. Henry did this tattoo a couple of years back. I am attaching 3 pics. The fish went well but I guess it took longer than he thought. His wife came into the shop, sat very near me and waited. All that was left to be done was the little boy and the fishing line going to the fish. You can see what the end result was. I find the work very disappointing. You be the judge. read more

Looking on here I'm actually surprised that this guy has as good reviews aS he actually does. A lot of my friends have gone to him and I have also got a tattoo from him along time ago. I absolutely do not recommend his work his lines are shaky and his shading is always weird. I'm not saying this because I am an artist. But I am saying it because a tattoos on your body for the rest of your life and I don't think that his tattoos are of good quality or are worth the amount that he charges for them. I do not think he is a bad person, but I really do not recommend his work read more

I booked an appt here as a buddy had said it was an ok shop. Spoke about what I wanted. I made it very clear I had printed art ready to use. I scheduled time off of work then the day of the appt I called to confirm only to be told I didn't have an appt by a very surly irritated sounding guy who was quite rude as he went on about how I didn't send my art online. My phone had been broken and in shop being fixed for 5 days. Seems like such a simple communication issue and not really worth being rude about. I'll be finding another shop with nicer people and better art. read more

Absolutely amazing shop, he was totally patient and walked me through every step of the way. My favorite tattoo I've gotten. Thank you so much, Shooting Ink! read more

My daughter had her ears pierced, and I had my nose re-pierced (the hole closed 15 years ago). Henry was professional, knowledgeable, and thoroughly explained every step of the procedures as well as aftercare. The shop was clean, even the bathroom (hey, that's important!). Henry used carefully sanitary practices throughout, and we left very satisfied customers. I don't plan on more piercings, but would most definitely return here. I'm considering a tattoo, and since he was meticulous with the piercings, I would check in with him for that, too. read more

Great place super clean and thorough explanation of what to expect. Henry was extremely patient and knowledgeable with our kids, both 6 year olds getting their ears pierced. Thank you for the great service! read more

My mom, daughters and I went in for some piercings and hoop removal for my youngest. My mom and I got tragus piercings and my old daughter her second lobe piercings and nose piercing. We felt super comfortable from the moment we walked in. Not only is the shop impeccably clean and inviting but Henry is very thorough and personable. He fully explained the procedures to us each time. The piercings all went great and he was wonderful with my 10 year old getting her hoops out. I highly recommend this shop for piercings and will be heading back soon for a tat. Thanks, Henry!! read more

I got my nose pierced today by Henry. When I entered the shop (as a minor with a parent), we were greeted with a clean, large, and comfortable air conditioned space. Henry explained the procedure and aftercare in a timely and thorough manner. I also received a paper restating all he said to be sure everything was clear. He made sure everything was clean and sterile throughout, and made sure I was confident in my ability to care for it properly. He was overall a nice guy too, which is important in a sense to he's holding a needle to your face! Would 100% go back in the future for another piercing!! read more

Ii had a tattoo idea and went to Henry for a consultation. His input and alterations to the sketch I brought in kept the original feeling and definitely improved it. He also was able to fit me into his schedule quickly. I was throughout impressed by his coloring, detail, and professionalism. I couldn't be happier and can't wait to add to butterfly piece! I'm planning on adding a dragonfly and some art deco floral pieces as soon I can. read more

After humming and hawing over having a tattoo in Japanese calligraphy form on my forearm for over a year, I dropped by the shop. Henry was busy doing a massive full-color tattoo on a guy.. So I dropped off a printout of what I wanted and where it should be placed and my tel#.... He called back and set an appointment that day. Done! Very fast, very neatly done, super clean and some wild conversation! I'm extremely pleased and highly recommend the shop! read more

This shop is the BEST. Henry did my tattoo, he was funny, thorough, honest, and crazy talented. The shop is so clean and organized. I would rate it 150 out of ten. My tattoo looks great and I would never go anywhere else again. GREAT JOB SHOOTING INK! :) read more

I had a memorial tattoo done for my mom and dad done by Henry. He had me completely at ease. He stopped periodically so I could sit up and stretch. The price was very reasonable in my opinion. His shop was clean. My tattoo looked exactly as I wanted it to. I WILL be going back there for another tattoo. I highly recommend going to see him. Thank you so much Henry! I love my tattoo read more

Horrible service. I got my tounge done over a year ago and still and not recive the correct bar. He kept saying he would call and never did. It took me going in with my boyfrind before his even made a meserment and still failed to call. He also gave me the wrong balls for the tounge ring. On top of that he kept talking shit on every artist in town claiming " he was the only one that did original work" Bullshit. read more

Just had a piercing that was fast, easy, and relatively painless. Henry not only makes the process comfortable and easy (which is because of his professionalism), but is extraordinarily fair and reasonable in his pricing. I'll definitely be back. read more

Just got my snake bites pierced by the owner and they turned out great. He was super friendly and has great prices. Highly recommend them!

Henry, the owner, does a great job. He is very clean and professional. I had him do a lower arm sleeve of vines and flowers going down to my knuckles and it turned out great. I will be going back soon to get some more work done! read more
