I described my tattoo to a gentleman on the phone around my wrist lettering I explained that I wanted to add to the tattoo and possibly fill in the lettering and that I wanted to come in the same day rather than come in for a consultation. The gentleman was a very rude and ended the conversation with he's not interested. I feel like it was very unprofessional and very rude. Do not go to this place my opinion not every customer knows exactly how things should or should not be done but for you to just end the conversation is very very rude and unprofessional made me feel like not even wanting to get a tattoo thanks guy on the phone. When he said he wasn't interested when getting off the phone I asked what do you mean you're not interested in his response was I don't have to tell you I would not recommend this place and I didn't even so much just get through the front door.

The best piercer in Northern VA. Super clean, very knowledgeable, and extremely detail-oriented…read more Piercings are something you live with for life, so you really have to love them. Lora is truly the best -- highly recommend. I used to have very low piercings and they looked terrible. I tried getting stacked piercings at Rowan, but the nurse (piercer) didn't really know what they were doing. My ears were poked multiple times, nothing was lined up, and it just looked off. Even though I paid a lot, I ended up taking them out. Then I went to Lora -- she immediately understood what I wanted, walked me through everything, and gave thoughtful recommendations. The result looks SO much better. I honestly wish I had found her earlier. Do not go to places that use piercing guns or devices -- they don't follow your markings properly. Go to Lora.

I've been going to Patriots for around 8 years now and they have never disappointed me. The…read moreservices i've received are; lobe piercings, nostril piercing, industrial piercing, shin tattoo, inner forearm tattoo, hip bone tattoo, and a front thigh tattoo. In addition, Patriots is my first to recommend when someone mentions seeking tattoos or piercings. I have numerous friends who also have tattoos from this shop. Following given care instructions, I've had great healing experiences with my tattoos and piercings. I've been to various tattoo artists and piercers here, my personal favorite has been Mauricio, tattoo artist. Curt is the shop manager and he's great, friendly and always welcoming. I'll continue to seek services at this studio in the future!

I recently moved out of the area but I enjoyed my experience so much I'd consider flying back to get future work done by him.

I had about eight lobe piercings that needed to be put back in after a procedure and she did them swiftly and with a few design changes that looked wonderful.

Over a long holiday weekend I realized my piercing was embedded and was honestly a little panicked about it. I went in the minute they opened and she brought me right back and fixed it and placed a longer post until it healed a bit. I was able to book an appt on booksy to get it shortened back up after healing. It was just all in all a great experience and I highly recommend her! If I ever get brave enough to pierce something else, Kendall is my girl!

He took care to make sure everything was clean before, during and after my visit. When I had to return two weeks later because I accidentally ripped it out, he was very careful and knew what to do when it started bleeding as he put the stud back in. Again, he was as quick and clean as possible. I would recommend them for piercings. That said, while waiting for my initial visit, there was a LOT of cuss words being thrown around so if you don't care to hear that, avoid this place.
