10/10 I got an eyebrow piercing and a septum the piercings were quick but the 10/10 review comes from how cool the piercer was I almost passed out on my septum piercing and he was very cool about it and helped me out told me just to lay back gave me a lollipop 😂 and some water then I was all good the piercings turned out awesome as well nice placement and healing has been smooth as well

I got my bellybutton pierced by Katy and she did amazing! She checked to see if I had the right anatomy for it and advised me on what jewelry would be best for my comfort (in my case, a floating naval). She was sooo sweet and made the entire experience so comfortable for me and I love her oh so very much! I will be coming back to her for any future piercings! What a gem💎

This was my first time getting a piercing. I got my piercing done by Jeremy. And he was so kind and guided me through it. 10/10, lowkey thinking about getting other piercings from there. Depending on how this one turns out. (The blue is from the pen he used)

Ruby was very personable and caring. My wife got a tattoo to represent our beloved bulldog who passed away from cancer.

Ruby listened to what my wife wanted and exceeded every expectation. Ruby made this piece of body art come to life with a memory that will last forever for my wife.

The tattoo parlor was clean, well lit, & friendly.

My wife and I highly recommend Ruby!!!

Prices were a bit higher compared to some other places my wife and I have been for piercings, but we figured, "You get what you pay for," so we decided to spend the extra and see how it worked out for our daughters.

Both of my daughters got piercings, and the technician was super patient, knowledgeable, and kind to them. My oldest was getting her septum pierced for her birthday, and she was a nervous wreck—trepidation is an understatement. She even fainted after the piercing was done and the ball was secured. The technician reacted quickly with smelling salts and remained calm and professional the entire time.

I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough. The earrings my youngest daughter got have been doing well so far—this is our third attempt with a different material to avoid rejection, and so far, so good.

I can’t speak for the tattoo side of things, but as for the young woman who did my daughters’ piercings: 10/10.

Came in yesterday to get a double nose piercing. If ya'll are like me and your nostrils are uneven, I was still able to get perfect piercings on both sides. I wish I caught her name but she did a fantastic job. Taking the time to make sure I was comfortable with the placement and comfortable with the piercing. 11/10 would recommend and the piercer deserves a raise!!

He explained everything and we had a delightful conversation while he worked on both of our tattoos. Midway through the process, my wife decided she wanted a piercing as well and they fit her in with no waiting. Definitely recommend this shop and especially Duvan, the tattoo artist.
