When I turned 50 I decided to add another piece of art to my body...I knew I wanted a buffalo skull…read morebut it took me 3 years to find an artist that I trusted to give me what I wanted... After hearing many great things about this tattoo parlor I stopped in and was connected with Ash (@ashcyclopedia on Instagram) and after about 10 minutes of talking ideas and concepts I just felt a comfort I have really never felt with a tattoo artist over the past 3 years during my search... I liked his thoughts based on my ideas and I booked an appointment... its been 5 days since I sat for my 2nd tattoo and I have no regrets... Ash did a helluva job and I couldn't be happier with the result... my base idea and the vision he brought to it have made this tattoo a stand out that I'm proud to wear... If you are looking to get some ink I STRONGLY recommend you make the time to stop by and discuss with the artists there and set that appointment... I'm pretty positive you'll be pleased with the result

10/10 do NOT recommend going to Trendsetters Bossier for any of your tattoo/ piercing needs…read more tonight they advertised on their facebook that they were doing specials. I went in to ask about it and in fact 2 people told me they were. I paid for my $20 tattoos and while i was waiting a woman came to the front and told us there were no deals going on. we had informed her that we already paid and if they were not going to honor their facebook post we just wanted a refund and we would be on our way. well when we said that she told us "we don't do refunds" so i just gave you $40 for a tattoo that apparently i can't get because "y'all aren't doing specials tonight" when in fact i was told in detail upon walking in that they were well when i demanded that she give me my money back she threatened to call the police and told me to "get out of her store" i just think that all of the workers at trendsetters bossier city should be on the same page about when they are and are not doing specials. customer service was terrible ESPECIALLY from their main piercer i believe her name was sunny. over all not a very pleasant experience to be sitting in a tattoo shop for 2+ hours and walking out with nothing and almost with less than i walked in with. if anyone is looking to get a tattoo or piercing i HIGHLY recommend not going to trendsetters bossier city unless you just want to walk out in a bad mood and with a bad tattoo. after writing all of this on a facebook post and tagging them they then proceeded to instead of handing the situation and asking what they could do to improve their service and/ or firing sunny A. they BLOCKED me on facebook because they could not handle the harsh truth i was saying about how badly they are running their store. trendsetters bossier honestly needs to do so much better! i would honestly give ZERO stars if i could!!! do NOT go here!!!

Went in late one night as a walk in for a nostril piercing. Despite their being several people in…read morethe waiting area, I was helped right away. I filled out my paperwork, showed my ID and only had to wait for the piercer to set up her station. Bobee ended up being my piercer and was very professional. She had a friend who was apprenticing that night and Bobee made sure to ask first if it was ok that her friend watched the process. I gladly agreed and was done with the whole process within about 15 minutes and I left completely satisfied. Now the kicker is a few days later when my piercing fell out. I was so afraid that my piercing would close up and called the shop asking for Bobee who happened to be out. I did get her personal number, sent her a text explaining my situation and she met me on her off day to save my piercing! I was so grateful for her willingness to work with me and she reminded me to make sure that I'm tightening the jewelry daily.

I have been a customer of Pens a Needles since they've opened. My mother and I have been following…read morethem around town since the beginning of time. We've been customers of Dubs since he was an apprentice. When they moved to Jordan, my mother, Fiancé, and I visited (without an appointment as many do) and were greeted by a very disgruntled young lady who was not kind or welcoming AT ALL. She huffed and puffed, asked what we wanted, said we could sit down, nobody was there, just wait. Some cop walked in- she was SUPER DUPER friendly with him- then Dub walked in and her demeanor completely changed. She introduced herself, "Hi, my names Jules- how can we help you today?" Wow! Talk about whiplash! So we focused our energy on Dub. He introduced me to Nila and showed me her work. I paid a deposit to hold an artist, but no appointment was ever booked, no artist time was used, and no design work was created. The artwork was entirely my own, and I simply decided to change the design before moving forward. Despite this, I was told my deposit was "forfeited" due solely to changing my design - even though no services had been provided and no work had begun. The shop refused to refund the deposit until I involved an attorney, at which point the money was returned. I'm sharing this so future clients understand how deposits are handled here. Transparency and fairness matter, especially in an industry built on trust. We even donated to Nila's benefit when her house burned down. This is how you treat the people in the community that build you back up? What a shame.
