I would talk to the artist and let them know what I was interested in having done and made an appointment for sometime in the future when they had an opening. Today I got lucky and got to have it done right away! Everything is always clean and the artists are nice and always make sure they're on the same page with you. All protocols are followed. I have never felt like they rushed through getting ready and I really appreciate it! I'm adding some photos to this review. These are some of the tattoos my daughters and I have and they were all done here! These people are artists! I've taken in some very basic ideas of what I want and they come up with some really cool ideas. I've had some people say they would feel uncomfortable since they're older - they feel like they wouldn't fit in. I'm 65 years Ike and I have never felt uncomfortable, or like I didn't belong. They're professionals doing their craft! I'll definitely be back when I'm ready for another one!

Julie was so chill and thorough and answered any questions I had. I really appreciated the amount of detail and info she gave me as she was doing her thing. I always like to know what exactly someone is doing step-by-step and that's exactly what Julie did for me without having to ask. After giving our IDs, Julie went in the back to prep the room while we signed the paperwork. I went first and then my friend went shortly after. While we paid I noticed there were some cleaning sprays which I needed to get more of. They highly recommended this bottle I got saying it'll last a long time but to only spray up to 3x instead of what the bottle says 3-6x per day because it will dry it out. I loved that they didn't try to push me to buy it I just knew I needed it! When I got home I scanned it on the Yuka app (scan beauty products and food and they'll tell you how clean it's made or if it has any bad ingredients) and it scored 100/100 which I've only seen on a few items so I'm so so so happy I decided to get it! I have two more piercings I wanna get done and I will definitely come back for Julie!

Awesome news! Enigma has a cosmetic tattoo artist now!!! Grace is super nice, super informative & (…read morebest of all in cosmetic tattoos) GENTLE! I got lip blushing done. When thinking of getting something like your lips/ eyes/ anything facial & usually sensitive done, don't think about your body tattoos & how that felt. Grace has & utilizes a numbing cream ( works VERY well). I literally fell asleep while procedure was being done. It's a 2 session job, but now, fully done & totally healed, I'm super very happy with it!! They don't line too much outside of the lips because that would probably look super unnatural, but right to the edge of my lip line has given my lips the little bit of boost in volume and the colors that I really like especially when wearing no makeup at all. You get an absolute chance with Grace to help design the color that she's going to be applying ( She recommended that I bring along my favorite lipstick). This is not nearly as "ouchy" or intense as you might imagine. As I previously mentioned, the numbing cream works super well! Just relax and it's done before you know it! The color seems very very bright at first, but it does mute out quite a bit as the healing process sets in. I, as a thin-lipped individual () not only enjoyed the color, but the subtle ( albeit temporary) volume boost it gives. I realize they were mainly swollen a bit from the "trauma" of the "blushing", but ( in my experience) with disappointingly short lived lip filler, this lasted almost as long & healed up quickly & easily. There will be a bit of chapping and peeling between your first and second appointment, but that's just the lips healing out. Just use some lip balm diligently day and night ( Grace will give you the "accessories") and you'll be ready to show it off in no time! I would recommend Grace to do ANY of the cosmetic tattooing she can do because I can see what a great & careful professional she is. Enigma 's a great spot for tattoos in general, now they've added the aesthetic angle the public has increasingly asked for. Thankfully they put on a trained & experienced aesthetics professional. Grace is amazing!

Walked in on a Friday for my first tattoo (two modest Chinese characters on my chest) and a frenum…read more(male genital) piercing. A little over an hour later, walked out with two new body mods that I am extremely proud of for a price that was both affordable ($190 combined) and well worth the service I got. Tattoo artist Miss Morgan did a fantastic job with a first-time client. She worked quickly and put my mind at ease. Pain on a scale of 1 to 10 was about a 4, with a few twinges of 5 as she approached the bonier parts of my sternum, and many stretches where it was a 3 or even nonexistent. From start-to-finish, it took less than forty minutes, and possibly half that time. When she said "You're done." I was pleasantly surprised. Now I have two Chinese characters that are personally meaningful to me on my chest forever. Most important, I am certain I made the right decision. Based on the much more intricate designs on their walls and their heavily-inked clientele (which means a lot of repeat business), I don't think you can go wrong with any artist here, but if this is you first tattoo and you are nervous, consider asking for Miss Morgan by name. I could not be happier with her work, and she had a fantastic bedside manner. Piercing was done by Caleb, who does all of their piercings, I believe. I'm not shy about my body, but if you are and you want to get pierced in an area that isn't visible to the public, you should know that Caleb is courteous, professional, and very good at what he does. He helped me decide between a Prince Albert and a frenum based on what I was looking for and his expertise without steering me either way forcefully. I previously had a Prince Albert, but opted for the frenum this time, and I am extremely pleased with the result. It's still healing, and will be for some time, but the initial excitement and pride of getting this done still hasn't worn off. The pain was about a 7 on a scale of 1 to 10, but Caleb worked so quickly and efficiently that I barely noticed it after a very intense less than one second period. If you are male and reading this while thinking of getting a piercing down there, my advice is to do it (you can remove them and they will heal without much notice or any damage). Professional service matters, and Caleb provided it like it was second nature, probably because he's done this many many times before. Both appointments were walk-ins on a Friday afternoon. Note that there can be a bit of a wait, since I do not believe they take appointments on the weekend, but only for the tattoo. There was almost no wait for the piercing (just 20 minutes or so for them to prep the area after seeing another client). I had been thinking about getting both procedures done for a long time, and I'm extremely pleased that I did not have to wait an excessive amount of time to get them done. Overall, this is a very professional and affordable shop, and I would recommend it heavily to anyone thinking of getting a tattoo or piercing, especially if this is your first one. If I could give this place a sixth star, I would.

I told him I was on my way and I got there, there were some individuals being helped by him but he acknowledged me and helped. I spoke with him and he listened and helped me and looked over with jewelry with me. I felt bad because I assumed I was holding up others that came in behind me but a young lady stepped up and helped so he could be more attentive. He told me someone would be coming up and there was a nice lady Bayle that helped me. She was amazing and very detailed and she tried to see if my piercing was still open but it closed up. She told me about aftercare but it was completely different than the place I went to before which I appreciated. She told me what would go with my face and nose shape and also helped with letting me know if some would turn which would cause irritation. She gave a lot of little words of advice even if I don't come back since I don't work in St. Louis. I am happy I didn't stay at the former place. I will definitely come back to her and Simeon at the front was amazing. I will recommend piercings here most definitely.
