Sooooooo storytime…read more.. I've been wanting my ears pierced since I was in middle school. So many of my peers had them and I wanted them as well. Beyond my attempt to "fit in", I always felt it looked cool. Well, having pretty strict, traditional parents, I wasn't allowed to have any piercings or tattoos. After moving out for college, I eventually got the courage to get a tattoo and now I have so many, I've lost count. But I never got the strength to get my ears pierced. I was told that I was too old now to have them. I was also slightly traumatized from my childhood of being yelled at every time I would ask to get my ears pierced. I still would never want judgement from my parents or want them to think different of me, but I finally found the strength. I went into 2023 saying that this was the year that I was finally going to do the things I've been wanting to do for the longest. Prior to my arrival, I planned to go to a location that uses a piercing gun, until I researched that needle piercings are much better for several reasons. It was then that I looked up tattoo shops near me and this location came up. Coincidentally, my wife's friend got pierced here before, so it felt like fate. My Piercing Experience: This shop is cool. I was then greeted by the staff and asked what services I wanted and given consent forms to sign as well as pricing options. For me, one ear lobe is $50. Both ear lobes is $75. I then picked out what earrings I wanted for the piercing ($10/earring). Once called back, my piercer Bryt, was super cool and super friendly. She explained the process and the healing process. She even gave me some breathing tips that would help calm my nerves during the piercing. I know it sounds crazy, but I truly hate needles. Once she cleaned my earlobes, she placed spots on my ear with marker to mark the location of the hole that would go in my ear. Once I confirmed and she took a second look, it was time to go. She did it so fast, I barely event felt them. It felt like a toddler thumping my ears. LOL. Once leaving, she offered the sterilizing solution, which they sell for $15 in store. Overall, I truly enjoyed my experience. If you're considering getting pierced or getting your child pierced, go see Bryt. She's the best!

I called this shop on Thursday, June 25, 2026, and Aarahm answered the phone. He asked me a couple…read moreof questions about what I wanted--a simple jewelry change on dermals I've had since 2013. He told me he would be at Saints and Sinners until 7:30 p.m. I arrived at 6:30 p.m. and was met by Princess Aarahm sitting at the front with his belly out. From our interaction, he came across as very sassy, awkward, and unprofessional. I said, "I believe I spoke to you on the phone." He explained that changing my dermals would cost anywhere from $10 to $20 per dermal, depending on how difficult they were to change, and that each piece of jewelry would cost $20. When he opened his mouth to speak to me, I was met with the most foul odor I have ever endured. To make matters worse, he had mustard, or some kind of offensive sauce, on his beard. I should have known right then that he had absolutely no idea what he was doing or how to do what I needed. I already had jewelry for one of my dermals. He then said the change could cost about $100. Not that it would be $100--just that it could be, depending on how hard it was for him to unscrew the dermal tops and whether he needed to use tools. I then asked him how long he had been doing dermals. He informed me that he had been doing them since 2004 and then refused to do my jewelry change simply because I asked about his experience. I guess he assumed I was worried about the price, but I was actually concerned about getting an infection from someone who appeared to be a beginner in the piercing world. The fact that he said he didn't know whether he would need tools told me everything I needed to know. Fortunately, I was able to find another piercing shop that changed both of my dermal tops for a total of $30. The process was quick, straightforward, and completed without any issues. I then went to @saintsandsinnersatl and saw @aarahmp listed in the bio. I visited his page to look at his work and found only one photo of dermals, posted in September 2020. I don't know who allowed him to alter their body like that, but if I were the person with those microdermals, I would sue. I wish I could give Princess Aarahm zero stars, but unfortunately, the lowest rating is one.

I went to Virtue & Vice to get my ears re-pierced after having them pierced 20 years ago. I had a…read morephenomenal experience at V&V from start to finish. They were extremely diligent in their adherence to sterilization protocols and examination of my initial piercings. Because of Randy's careful examination of my ears, only one ear needed a full re-pierce and the other ear just needed a slight stretch in the piercing. It was much less painful this time around than it was 20 years ago (w/a piercing gun at Claire's!). I had such a great experience here I would definitely return and get additional piercings! My ears healed well (different experience than the first time) and I'm excited to wear earring again!

I popped into this place for a piercing removal and I'm SO glad I came here and nowhere else…read more Needing a piercing removed before giving birth and being one who isn't up for enduring pain for ink & piercings like I was when I got it, I needed to find THEE best place to do it, not just any place. I had attempted to remove it myself and, TOTAL FAIL. I searched Yelp a number of times and kept returning to Virtue & Vice due to the reviews. One stipulation I had while on the hunt for this place was that I only wanted a female piercing tech. So I called Virtue & Vice telling them what I was looking for and asking if they would be able to accomodate. They were so helpful and patient! I asked a bunch of questions that were quickly answered and the gentleman that I spoke to even gave me the names of the female techs along with their availability. That call sealed the deal for me! While in the area one day I decided to pop into Virtue & Vice and finally tackle this task. HU: the parking lot is quite tight as the plaza is a small one. I didn't have an issue finding a spot but I can only imagine how it would be on a crazy day. The shop was bright and airy, and I was greeted so warmly upon entry by two young ladies at the front counter. I let them know what I was looking for and was told it'd be a 15 minute wait, easy peazy. After a few minutes one of the young ladies approached me asking if I'd accept a male tech assisting me so that I'd get in/out sooner. I declined and appreciated that they didn't push or question my decision to wait. Minutes later my technician Lena came and got me. She was such a sweetheart! She has the same name as one of my favorite people and Yelp CM so I knew she had good energy. When I tell you all that I tried removing the piercing myself about 4x? Why did Ms. Lena get it out (without pain!) within TWO minutes? It may not have even been two minutes. I coughed and boom, removed. I can't believe that I put it off for so long! Definitely returning for some new ink in the future.

Just a general cost is what I wanted & he fell right in line with my price range!! The shop is connected to the SHELL gas station on the corner of Old Norcross Rd & Sugarloaf- pretty unassuming store front, no doubt. But don't judge a book... I went to meet my friend & walked in. The place is clean & pretty cool with eclectic decore. The furniture needs covers or replacement, but I hope worn because of so many clients coming & going. There was 1 other client when I was there. My friend came out & her tattoo is so beautiful. She comes frequently & the work is always great with color saturation, great lines & clean work! I believe I'll come get mine done (saving up) for my birthday in Sept. more review to come.

I got my tattoo from one of the people who rent space there, someone with Whiskey Weasel Tattoos…read more They are an unbelievable artist whom I researched along with a number of other artists in the area. They were easily head and shoulders above the rest, so I chose them for my first tattoo. I went there as a walk-in at 12 o'clock sharp. The shop is clean and looks like every other tattoo parlor you will walk into. The front staff weren't helpful, so I made things happen for myself. I met the artist, and they were extremely accommodating, friendly, and easy to work with. We set a time, and I got my tattoo. The tattoo itself I am extremely happy with. I'm going to get plenty more tattoos, and I was sure I found my tattoo artist for as long as they worked in the area and I lived in the area. I already had ideas for my next tattoo, and they said it would be just as easy to start the process online, so when I was ready for my second one, I figured I would save them the headache of randomly walking in. My first concern was that it was April and their website still has Christmas specials that pop up as soon as you open it. It's not even a week until May, and if you go on there right now, their Christmas specials will still pop up. Anyway, I wrote an email and requested a consultation. A couple of days later, I got a response with someone named Samantha, asking me questions about the tattoo that I hadn't put in the initial communication. I responded and waited. And waited. I included the question of whether or not they were even interested in doing the tattoo, and I began to figure that maybe they didn't want to. I moved on. I began my search for another tattoo artist and was extremely fortunate to come across the most amazing person I will likely find in the Atlanta area. The communication was extraordinary. I had a consultation for the next day, and then an appointment for the next day to have my tattoo done. Then Samantha got back to me wanting to set up a consultation. I don't know if Whiskey Weasel Tattoos is a side hustle for the owners or if they have bad business sense, but between them and Wild Tribe, I would imagine they would want to work together to maximize their income. If you're going to use Whiskey Weasel, you'll get top notch ink. It's getting in that will be the challenge. Go to Wild Tribe in person and know what they look like so you can go find them yourself. You won't get in touch with them online and you'll be on your own if you go there expecting to be helped by the regular staff.

I…read moreoriginally came in a few years ago to have a VCH piercing redone after receiving one with incorrect placement elsewhere. The piercer was quick, gentle, and precise -- the placement was perfect, and I've had no issues since. During that first visit, I also fell in love with their jewelry selection. I had been on the hunt for unique, exotic nose rings, and Kolo definitely delivered. Yes, their pieces are a bit on the pricey side, but the quality and variety are absolutely worth it -- 10/10 every time. The receptionist is one of my favorite parts of the experience. She has amazing energy, always gives thoughtful suggestions, and shares her personal experiences in a way that makes you feel heard and cared for. The bald guy that works there is also really cool -- calm, professional, and always pleasant on the phone. What I love most about Kolo is that they truly know their craft. They take anatomy seriously and won't pierce you unless it's the right placement for your body. That type of honesty and expertise is rare. I recently made the mistake of stepping out for a $10 belly ring special somewhere else... and it went south fast. I came back to Kolo, and they saved the day. This place is forever my home for piercings and jewelry. Can't recommend them enough -- true professionals who care about what they do.
