After two day it started to split I told her and she said that they didn't have the regular piercing size only the small ones. Mmmm I asked why did you do it if you didn't have the right stuff. Regardless I pay $60. Had to wait months for it to heal then went back for my piercing again. Do you know that even though they knew that they was on the wrong they made me pay another $60 for the piercing again. After three days that piercing fell out yes the whole thing. Now it's been three months and still waiting for my piercing that cost me $120 and they not giving me any money back. I went to Florida on vacation and got it done there. Mmmm

I got my foot tattooed at this shop in 2013. It was a lily in remembrance of my mother who died…read morewhen I was eighteen surrounding my children's names. From the beginning the tattoo itched scabbed swelled and bled. It hurt and it looked bad. I went into the shop multiple times and no one could give me a clear answer. Messages on social media were ignored. Someone from the shop eventually suggested it might be an allergic reaction to metal in the red ink and gave me a home treatment plan with vitamin E, epson salt soaks and cocoa butter. I followed it for twenty weeks and my foot got worse. I was waking up with blood on my sheets from scratching in my sleep and people asked about it because it looked infected not because the tattoo looked good. I later moved to the West Coast and saw other tattoo artists who had zero connection to this shop. Multiple artists told me the work was done incorrectly and that poor technique and ink saturation were likely to blame. A dermatologist also confirmed it did not look like an allergy. The shop tried to say that other artists were probably trying to make them look bad but no one here even knows who they are and they had no reason to defend or criticize anyone in Pennsylvania. Sometimes mistakes happen. Most people understand that. What made this worse was that the shop refused to own anything. Instead they got frustrated that I was pointing out that something was wrong and treated it like an attack instead of a request for help. That reaction made the whole situation worse than it needed to be. It has now been thirteen years and my foot still itches daily, and splits open and bleeds randomly. I deal with it daily because the skin reacts constantly and that physical reminder is hard to ignore. For that reason I think about this shop every single day and not in a good way. Based on my experience I cannot recommend this place and I suggest staying far away.

That's as much as I had vetted him going in... To:dr: I will return due to the quality of the work, the vision and artistry he brings to his tattoos, and the consultation he does to make sure the final products are what you want them to be. Full backstory: I've had a tattoo for over 15 years that I hated. An ill conceived Japanese dragon had been made worse when I gave a different artist free reign to rework the design, and the resulting concept just wasn't me Finally went in to consult with Bill and he asked what I was looking for. I told him that, knowing how hard coverups can be, I was considering maybe an armor, biotech, or solar system tat could fix it. He looked at it and said he could fix it a lot of ways... what had a wanted if I could do it from scratch? So I told him I'd always loved the idea of a full Harry Potter themed sleeve or half sleeve. He asked me to put together some ideas and send them over for him to put together and make it art. So I did 7 months later and four sittings in, and my upper half sleeve is complete and the lower half is in design. His work ethic is phenomenal, he takes great pride, and his finished projects are stunning. Thanks so much! Gotta love the use of color throughout the tat... you truly cannot find the original design. Thanks so much Bill!!

Second to none. We can't stop coming back to this place for…read moreour tattoos and we won't. Hell, when we have to move away from the east coast we will undoubtedly make trips back to Wilmington to get tatted up again because we just don't trust anyone else now! While we've gotten tiny easy tattoos on vacation at other places, we will NOT go anywhere else for our more complicated and detailed tattoos. The artists we've used (Verb & J-Rock) just understand their clients. We explain what we want, we provide pictures, and they give us back a masterpiece. It's obvious they understand their clients' unique personalities and tailor their work to accentuate the vibe you give off (or try to give off.) The final product is always infinitely more amazing than we are able to picture in our minds beforehand. I really cannot say enough good things about this place. Some might say it's "pricey" here; we always expect to pay talented artists well as they deserve it and the finished product is more than worth it. If you're nervous about your new piece of art and want to ensure you're getting exactly what you've envisioned (actually better), go nowhere else other than Northern Lights.

After reading a ton of reviews and spending a few days checking out different shops in the area, I…read morecame across Ink and Lash LLC--and I'm glad I did. The reviews were consistently great, and the artwork posted online looked incredible, so I decided to book. I was able to get an appointment within just a few days. Don't let the storefront throw you off or make you second-guess anything. Once you're inside, it's every bit as professional as any top-tier shop you'll find. Scott is the sole artist and has been running this place for years, with plenty of experience from working at another shop before COVID shut it down. His workspace is clean, bright, sterile, and clearly well-maintained. Now for the most important part--the tattoo itself. Scott has a light touch (if you know, you know), and he doesn't rush the process. He takes his time, and it absolutely shows in the final result. His lines are crisp and straight, his shading is dialed in, and the overall quality speaks for itself. You can tell he's focused on doing it right, not just getting through appointments. On top of that, he's easy to talk to, keeps things relaxed, and has good music going while he works, which makes the whole experience even better. If you're anywhere near the area, I'd 100% recommend going to Scott. You won't regret it.

He can turn any thought you have into an amazing piece and make it come to life. He is also one of the "lightest hands" I've experienced when it comes to getting tattoo'd. Erik has done over half of all of my tattoos (some not pictured because I wanted to show his primary style) and it is the least amount of discomfort and pain I have experienced. The shop itself is kept very well. Always clean, always organized, and very welcoming comfortable. The other artists within FMT are also very friendly, courteous, and helpful in all aspects. I highly recommend FMT if you are looking for your next or first tattoo.
