I am OVER THE MOON about my tattoo and experience. I got a large piece for my first one. The finished product exceeded every expectation I had. Bruce was AMAZING in his attention to detail and made a simple drawing into an absolute masterpiece. I could not be more pleased. I will certainly be back for the next one!
Permanent tattoos are something that goes with us to the end, so for me, picking the right shop and artist is important. After thorough research, I walked into Gary’s with only a basic concept of what I wanted. The staff were friendly and professional. Preston was extremely patient and took the time to help me bring the little ideas I had together and even adding some of his own. Preston’s designs were purely out of the box. He is an amazing artist! I highly recommend him!!!
My friend and i just got our matching tattoos and the experience was amazing. He made us feel comfortable, carried on a good conversation, and we had some laughs. He did an amazing job on my friend and i, my boyfriend decided to get one. It was his first one. We were definitely impressed by Preston. Everyone is nice and genuine! We definitely recommend this place for your tattoo thoughts!
My friends and I went to get our noses pierced and Stephanie was great! Very supportive and great communication during the process of the piercing and clear aftercare instructions. The process was fast and sanitary. A welcoming and clean environment! Ten out of Ten!
This was my first tattoo and I was undecided on what to get. Preston Rivera was patient and worked with me to get one that was truly meaningful to me. It is perfect!!! He even made sure that I knew how to care for it. He is very talented, a great artist! He will be doing my next one!! Check him out!!!
GREAT first tattoo experience with Preston! Super professional and really nice! Loved the outcome! Will definitely be going back! 😊👌
Got nose pierced & it was a very clean facility & nice staff. Very professional, visited a tattoo parlor in laurinburg NC just yesterday & got a cartilage piercing & hubby got nose pierced & the staff was very rude, didnt seem to know what he was doing. Changed prices after we already drove there. Ur facility gets a 100 compared to that one & I hope this cartilage piercing turns out to be ok for me.
I had the worse experience the lady upfront told me i couldn’t get my piercing done no I d I said cool my sister can sign she said no I d I said ok funny anybody can sign if you don’t have your id what a waste of my time I will never return
Upon arrival white guy with thick beard was extremely rude. Too many talented shops in the area to deal with such disrespect. He must think we’re in the 1920’s.
Preston gave me my first tattoo and I LOVE IT!!!! Great experience and I will definitely be back!
Piercer (Stephanie I believe her name is) was very nice and explains all details of the process and aftercare. Everybody there was very professional and shop was very clean.
Nice people! Fair price for nose piercing. Clean and professional.
Came her with my mom to get a piercing and she loves it. Workers are very friendly 10/10 recommend
Got tattooed by Preston, very professional, amazing design and even better finished product
May was so great! She pierced my tongue and it was amazing. I was super scared, but she was so nice. Helped me after it was healed with resizing and helped me totally understand my aftercare. Love, Will return!
I had some work done by Preston. Great work, clean, and professional.
Stephanie did my nose piercing, she was very friendly and professional
I loved their piercing tech!!! Definitely recommend!
Good experienced staff
Warm welcoming, not awkward at all, nice guys, no appointment needed . Thank you!
My first tattoos were a satisfying experience. :)
Got my belly button pierced. Best service ever! Quick and easy. The instructions are clear and also written out. I got lightheaded and instead of rushing me out the door they sat with me on the couch and gave me a bottle of water and a cookie. Definitely would recommend going here. The prices are very reasonable and they take care of you.
I have gotten quite a few piercings, from 4 different locations throughout my life, and this was the worst experience Ive had yet. I received two piercings from the female piercer, Mae, septum and smiley. The first time I went to get my septum done, it was honestly a good experience. The piercing was straight, a price I was expecting, and she gave the usual advice on how to to keep it clean and so forth. But the second experience is what made me decide to never return. I finally went and got my smiley done, and as soon as I walked in and said hello something was off. She didnt even ask how I was doing, and her entire attitude was cold and short. I figured hey, my septum turned out good, everyone has days when they dont feel like talking so much, thats why I didnt leave right away. The process was clean and fast as usual, virtually painless as well. But upon looking at it, and especially after its healed, it is RIDICULOUSLY crooked. As well as that, I asked if she knew the best mouthwash to get for it, and she responded that she didnt know and to look at the ingredients. After that I paid and left, happy that I was pierced but hindsight 20/20, I should have left before it was done and gone to a different shop. I am not sure if it was some weird personal issue or what, but I am extremely disappointed in the lack of professionalism and common decency. To apprentice for years and make something so crooked it couldnt be an accident. I would not ever recommend this shop to ANY person, friend or foe, looking to get pierced.
Bruce was amazing!
Best Experience Ever! Mae was extremely sweet and did an absolutely amazing job and she was very helpful and went into detail on how to clean my industrial! DEFINITELY WOULD RECOMMEND. I’m definitely coming back!
I got a tattoo and a nose piercing. They go above and beyond to make sure you are happy and like your tattoo and piercing. The work is very professional and I love my piercing placement and my tattoo. Will go there again and recommend highly!!
My husband called and made an appointment to have a tattoo done. We arrived 5 minutes before our scheduled time of 6:30. We walked in and approached the desk where there were 2 girls sitting, one was semi nice and the other was just plain rude to us. We told them we had an appointment in which case the one girl informed us that she didnt know if the tattoo artist would be able to get to us tonight but shed check and see. She goes into a room where the tattoo artist is sitting and chatting with 2 girls and comes back and tells us he may be able to do my husbands tattoo but hes got another appointment at 7:30 so for us to sit down and wait. So we sit, frustrated of course that weve made an appointment and driven 40 minutes to get this tattoo and now are being told we may or may not be able to be seen. The guy tattoo artist is laughing and talking to 2 girls in the tattoo room with the door closed, they are all having a good time in there doing whatever they are doing, not discussing tattoos or piercings or anything closely related to a tattoo. They are in there taking pictures because I can hear their conversation and I keep hearing one of the girls telling that tattoo artist to smile. So we sit there on the couch while the 2 girls up front joke and have a good time also, nobody tells us how long its going to be nor does anyone in the place say another word to us. We waited another 35 minutes and then got up and walked out. VERY VERY disappointing!! We will NOT being going back!
Great clean tattoo! piercing shop with friendly creative staff!! I will go back again!!
Sydney. The piercer was Awesome. She made my friend and myself feel extremely comfortable. I went in and got my Vch and nipples done in one sitting. She was fast and gave great instructions. I would definitely recommend 😆

Thomas and the staff were down to earth and friendly. Prices were great. Love the environment and will only go there from now on. My tatoo is a wonderful piece of art.
The first 4 were great so now planning 5 and 6.
MAE(MAY) WAS EXCELLENT!!! SHE KEPT ME CALM. VERY STERN AND EXTREMELY DETAILED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS TO TAKE CARE OF MY PIERCING!!!! AWESOME!!!!

In response to the negative experience posted from google user. Skin Grafix takes great pride in how we treat our customers. Our business was built on great customer sevice and high quailty tattooing. Could be why we are so busy as you say. We have never degraded any customer and never will. We are constantly told by our clients that we are hands down the friendliest and most professional shop in Goldsboro. WE invite anyone reading these posts to come in and see for yourself.
I love it there. ive got two tattoos from there and that will be the only place i do go to get any work!!
