Fantastic artists! Ive worked with Liz specifically and she has been amazing. Takes time to get colors, shaping, and lines perfect. Would highly recommend.

For a walk in type of tattoo place ..its decent.

I had a really great session and at a fraction of the cost iron brush quoted me! I 100% recommend this shop they made me feel comfortable and the guy even distracted me through conversation while I got my first tattoo on my ribs (painful!!) lol! everyone is so friendly, the prices are super reasonable, and the guy I saw has been doing it close to 30 years if I remember right so he knows his stuff! I was also allowed to watch my boyfriends tattoo session the day before to get an idea of what it would be like! They were very professional and didn’t even comment on my constant squirming and face scrunching😂. The tattoo looks really good exactly how I wanted it and I watch him take every tool out of a sealed steril bag!

Love this place! Called in soon after they opened to see if I could do a walk-in tattoo. They told me to come in the shop to talk type of tattoo, location, etc. Lizz was able to fit me into her schedule that same day in a matter of an hour and knocked out an awesome little corn tattoo I had in mind. Fun atmosphere (which makes getting a tattoo less nerve-wracking for some)! Awesome results and a fair quote as well-thanks Lizz!!

Travis is the guy. Knocked out most my arm on walk ins. Good clean detailed work and excellent why B&G. Overall positive environment and great tattooing film everything Ive seen.

Very friendly people, clean place, did great line work, very accommodating, and professional.

Very hygienic and were able to help me and my friends quickly and were knowledgeable.

I got my very first tattoo here a few months ago and it was the best experience I could’ve imagined! I can’t remember the artist, maybe Derek? Anyways, he was amazing! He made sure I felt comfortable and showed me how it looked when the needle would be going into my arm. He made conversation the whole time as well! I made the mistake of getting my next tattoo somewhere else in lincoln (will not say where) and now I will be going back to Big O to get it fixed! My experience with Big O was amazing!

Derrick has no manners and is unprofessional and not appropriate. He needs to learn how to talk to people asking for help. His actions were uncalled for and unappreciated. I will never do business here. Less then one star rated if I could.

These guys are always professional and informative. Theyre not pushy or rushed, and Matt is probably the smoothest piercer Ive had. Def going back 👍

I got a floral tattoo yesterday from Lizz, and I’m already ready to go back to her and get another tattoo.

I’ve had 4 tattoos done here, 3 of them by Lizz and everytime they blew me away with their skill— would highly recommend!

Lizz is a bada$$Great work!

They make sure everything is sterilized and go to go. They show you your jewelry passed the sanitation process. And they are very kind.

Let me start by saying TRAVIS IS THE MAN🤙🏻!!! Stumbled into this shop yesterday after I had got blown off for the millionth time by Ty Smith. (Which I will now have big o finish a piece that ty smith won’t) The team was quick to help and super friendly. Travis was my artist and he did absolutely way more than I was expecting. I love my new piece and the line work is beautiful. Nice thick straight lines! I will be coming back for many many more years to come. Treat your customers right and you will see a return! Respect the hell out of these guys!

Customer service is exceptional. I would recommend this place to get a tattoo a piercing. Or any tattoo lotions or jewelry for any piercing that you may need. Theyre really helpful in getting you whatever you might need tools for your piercings.

Best place to get a tattoo.Thanks Traves for the second tattoo✌

Clean with friendly staff and the shop is beautiful

Very professional and sanitary! Love all my work I have gotten here!

Liz was great, I loved how she improved our design and she has a gentle touch.

Really happy with the work they do here. Would recommend to any of my friends who are interested in getting something done.

I came in at 1pm on a Monday for a walk in and Travis got me in right away. I was suprised at the sizing he had in mind given the price he quoted me. I was throughly impressed. Professional and clean. Great quality work and all the staff in the shop made me feel very comfortable. Pricing was legit. Will definitely be returning for future ink!

Incredibly friendly atmosphere. I took my daughter to get her nose pierced and she forgot her ID. They accommodated our schedule after we ran back to get it. EVERYONE there was incredibly outgoing and relaxed. Id recommend this place to anyone.

Mark does an amazing job on piercings

Hella professional people who do a great job

Charge too much for peircing and tells people the wrong price

Great service! Tony was super nice.

Very nice, did great work on my tattoo for a reasonable price.

I made an appointment with Derek for a tattoo. I was nervous since it was my first and on a very visible area. It turns out that having someone skilled is important but equally important is someone who was understanding. I lost the number of times Derek made adjustments to the drawing, and I felt bad. At one point I even thought, I should just pay for his time and leave. But Derek didnt seem to think anything of it and kept listening and making adjustments accordingly. I ended up with a tattoo that I truly love. Thank you Derek!

I went in to get new jewelry and Matt is the one that helped me! He is amazing, the best customer service Ive had at a tattoo shop, he gave me options instead of trying to just sell me jewelry and get me out the door fast as possible... which made me even more interested in buying from this place! Thank you so much Matt! Ill be back soon!I wanted to add on here for a more recent review. I got my septum pierced today and Mark did it! I love it! He did a great job at being calm since I was anxious and explaining everything. Ive had my fair share of piercings, he was one of the best Ive had pierce me. Thank you so much Mark! And thank you for being a perfectionist!

10/10 would recommend. Travis did an amazing job with my tattoo! I walked in with a concept, and he delivered tenfold. I am in love with it, and he paid close attention to detailing!

LOOOOOVED THIS PLACE! My mom and I got matching tattoos and they turned out great! They helped us place them better and they were so fun during the process. Recommend for sure!

Super professional and high quality service. Would definitely recommend

Im so glad I went to Big O/ Onyx for my septum piercing! Matt was very knowledgeable and very welcoming! He told me everything every step of the way of what he was doing and why. He then gave me recommendations for jewelery. Everyone there was so friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Big O/ Onyx to anyone!

The wait wasnt long. The people were nice. It was clean and everything was very professional. The cost was reasonable and I love my tattoo. They took a drawing I brought in and were able to shrink it down for me. I had Derek work on my ankle, he was amazing!

Got some piercings done! Great quality, customer service and awesome awesome sense of humor! Thanks Matt!

Honestly made my first time such a great experience! I will honestly come back for more!

Took my daughter here to get her nose pierced. So professional and personable. Expert piercing and care instructions!

Mark is always super patient and helpful!!!

Vast piercing knowledge, very helpful and friendly, goes above and beyond.

The service was great! They made sure that I liked the initial sketch. They were also very patience and the pricing was great! I would definitely recommend getting a tattoo here!

Ease of scheduling, artist was understanding, lucked out and had parking out front. Reasonable prices. Clean and sanitary working environment. Solid.

The person that did my septum piercing we very nice and he was also funny!I like how it turned out!

Mark did an amazing job with my piercing!! I definitely recommend using him. He made us feel comfortable and I will be coming back again!!

Great place. Its always very clean and the people are super nice and know what theyre doing. Ive had my tattoo and multiple piercings done here. Highly recommended!!!

I always enjoy my time at the Big O. Staff is always polite and helpful. The shop is always clean and Ink is always Pro. Thanks Big O Tatoo. 17 year Customer 0 Complaints.

Excellent place to get a piercing. Love mine, placing is perfect. They are professional, extremely clean and sanitary. Matt is very informative and knowledgeable.

Extremely clean and very friendly! You can tell they know what theyre doing, are very educated on how to pierce properly, and how to be clean in every aspect of it. Also with top of the line jewelry. Im very picky with this stuff and would highly recommend!

Came in as a walk-in with an idea for what I wanted in my head, and Travis was able to put it perfectly down on paper for me. Turned out great!

I just went in tonight to get my nose pierced, Mark did a fantastic job! I went in about 40 minutes before closing and he was able to fit me in before they closed. He made the whole process really easy! The piercing looks great and Ill definitely be back

One of the piercers was very sweet and kind and had a great personality. made me feel completely comfortable without being worried or nervous. EXCEPT my piercing I wanted is NOT in the spot I wanted it. I wanted my daith done and the entry hole is all the way inside my ear not in the front of the flap. wondered why my ring was so big and thats why...

Love love love this pleas 13/10 recommend. I am never going any where else. The staff is so nice and professional. So glad I made the decision to get pierced here and hopefully soon tattooed.

Ive gotten a few tattoos and piercings here and I love the people that work here. Theyre very clean and professional, always explaining everything before they do it. They definitely have a customer for life!

I previously got my cartilage pierced (with bad results) at another place in town, and had to take it out when it didnt heal and continued to give me pain after several months. After talking to Matt about my concerns with trying again, I was impressed with how friendly and knowledgeable he was about piercings, and decided to go for it. My new cartilage piercing was pain-free within 24 hrs, has not gotten inflamed or infected, and looks amazing. I fully recommend him for your piercing needs!

I recently got my nose peirced by matt and he was amazing ! I was a little nervous at first but he talked through everything and made sure i understood every step. Reasonable prices and very sanitary, highly recommended!

My daughter wanted a second ear piercing. We worked with Matt who was very friendly and professional. He did a great job of putting her at ease while explaining the entire process. Very clean and excellent procedures.

Mark is a talented piercing artist who make my experience very pleasant. Cleanest piercing parlor I have ever been to, and I would highly recommend to all for their body piercing needs. He ensured my comfort and his cleanliness every step of the way.

Ryan just did a piece for me and there is no other words to describe is work other than amazing! Would definitely recomend going in if you want professional work done!

Mark and Matt are very professional and kind during the piercing process. Big O is the only place I want my teenage daughter to go to, because of the sterile techniques they use and quality of their products. This February, Mark did a nice job putting in my forward helix. He answered all my questions, taking his time to explain each step, as well as after care. Plus,Their products have ZERO reactions to our sensitive ears, well worth paying more for.

This place is amazing, I was super nervous going to a tattoo shop for the first time but Mark made me feel so at ease and welcomed I cant wait to go back and get more work done!

I recently got an incredibly precise tattoo done by Lizz, and it is absolutely PERFECT. Not only did she take her time in drawing up this insane design, but the way she aligned the placement, looked it over, and just wanting it to be right is WHY I choose Big O Tattoo! The entire staff are incredibly fun and nice and genuine people. Thank you Lizz for an incredible experience, making me comfortable, and letting me take a few breaks in between! You’re the sweetest!

Awesome place. Super friendly. Helped me book an appt within a reasonable time. Cant wait to get my tattoo.

I love Lizz! Great service and at a great price.

I will not go back to this place nor recommend it to anyone, and heres why:I scheduled an appointment two days early and put a $60 deposit down for 8:30. The lady told me the $60 wouldnt count towards the price of the actual tattoo. The day of, the guy was running late and they moved us to 9. We got there 10 minutes early and my friend forgot his id, and the artist (Mike was his name I believe) was short with us about it, but he was the one who was late and moved us back. It took me ten minutes to get the id and then we got started. He told us he didnt have time to do the full design (which was very small, would have taken like ten extra minutes at most) and we agreed that would be fine. We were getting the word OREO on my friend in smaller lettering. The tat turned out fine (nothing special), but it was very small (about 3.5 inches long) and not the full design, and the artist charged me $120 for a simple four letters, and he knew we were college kids who probably couldnt afford that much. My friend said she got a bigger tattoo with more design at Iron Brush for $80. I was very disappointed with this experience and will not recommend nor go back.

Big O Tattoo is a clean and professional shop. All new and sterile consumables used. Tim did a great job and had good ideas. Will be back to complete the art.

Amazing service!! My best friend and I got pierced by Mark. He was super cool and educated us about the piercing we were getting. Thanks Mark!!!!!!!!

Love this place! Great people!

Best place. BJ is the man. Go to him for the best tats. Mark was a good guy too. Will get my piercings here.Got both of my Tragus piercings done here! Hurt for the second the needle went in, but after, nothing. A little itching from healing, but that’s normal. So happy with Matt and Mark

Derick did a FANTASTIC job on my ink and now I have another tattoo artist that I can go to. THANK YOU

Always an amazing experience here the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, BJ is the absolute best ! He always exceeds my expectations and is truly an amazing artist his work speaks for itself.

This place is always rad. Good, clean work. Good staff. Ill be going back again and again.

This place is good! Prices are a little higher than Id like to see, but the jewelry is good quality!

Do not come here this is the worst tattoo place Ive ever been to the owner will not let you contribute on the drawing argue your vision for your own tattoo and is completely rude again this is the worst tattoo place Ive ever been to and I have over 10 tattoos every one of them the artist worked with me on my tattoo !!Big O tattoo is awful!! On top of the rude personnel (Owner), they scheduled me for a tattoo did not have the time to complete it had me come in on another day and I could not make it they kept my deposit. Do not give this place your money. You will just have the money stolen from you!!

Liz is so nice, helpful & professional. She also does fantastic work.

I when in to Big Os not sure what to expect. But all i can say is just WOW the shop is so beautiful. The art and tattoo pictures on the walls are just so amazing. So Im already blown away with the shop and then i start talking to the guys. They are so kind and knowledgeable, the put up with all my questions. (I hate to admit it but i didnt do any of my own research) I wanted to get a Jacobs ladder done, six of them to be exact. And the were down to make it happen. Ive always to get this piercing and it was the fist one Ive ever done. So i order the jewelry and wait what seems like forever for them to get in (not the shops fault btw) and then the day came.I was so excited, i got in and layed down. My piercer was very verbal and nothing was a surprise or unexpected. He told me when he was gonna clamp and when the needle was going to go through. Now for the record i was ready for it to hurt, but i was not ready for it to hurt THAT much. And im embarrassed but i straight up kicked my guy, mid pierce. And you know what he was so kind and understanding, he supported me and encouraged me. I was roaring all kind of obscenity and the encouragement never stopped. He really blew up my ego and as i came out of the room having the whole shop gave me praise and did make me feel ashamed for having poor pain tolerance. I felt cared about and like a close friend, Not a customer. And if that wasnt enough i have called several times afterwards with questions about aftercare and the dos and donts and each and every time they remember me by name and patiently answer all my questions.So in short, if your a veteran there experience cant be beat, and if youre a newbe then their hearts will make big o tattoos your permanent place.

Got my tongue pierced by Mark, and he did a wonderful job! He was very helpful and friendly, making my experience at the shop very good!

Do not get a piercing from them!! Had my septum done and they put on to small of a ring so i had to go back in. When i did i asked for someone else to do it since i didnt want the guy who messed up in the first place to do it and the guy proceeded to yell at me and try and say he told be that if it was uncomfortable to come back in when all he did was say it was to tight. Mind you he also yelled at me saying he had been doing this for years. And if thats the case he should of known it swells so if it was to tight right away it was going to be a problem. Anyways he sat there and yelled at me saying humans make mistakes. So as i was leaving to go get it changed out else where (he said he was the only one who could do it) he yelled saying sorry for being human. Just save your self the time and pain and go somewhere else! I would give no stars if i could!

Went in to talk about some tattoos I want and they were very honest, made an appointment to have them done.

Very professional, clean environment with great energy

Shameful and unprofessional. Had to cancel my appointment due to the death of a client of mine and Big O will not refund me any of my $300 deposit even though I had agreed to a fee due to cancellation even after Ryan had admitted to not having done any preparatory work . Looks like we will be going to court. SMH

As far as I am concerned it is the best place to get a tattoo in Lincoln.

Great place to get exotic piercing

I love this place! I havent had any tattoo work done here.....yet, but hopefully I will in the coming months. My younger sister has had some gorgeous tattoo work done here and Ive personally seen some amazing work done. My family and myself have had quite a bit of piercings done here and have loved all that we have had done. Ive had piercings done by both Matt and Mark (thats both of their piercing guys). They are great guys with funny personalities who make you feel very at ease. They are very informative and make sure you know exactly how to care for your piercings. One of my piercings (my orbital) got infected while healing through no fault of my own or theirs. The reason it got infected is because I have a sweet dog whom I love so very much who refuses to sleep anywhere but in bed with me. It takes longer for a cartilage piercing to heal due to there being less blood in those areas (just an FYI). When I had awaken one morning after having had my piercing for a few months and noticed that it was really swollen I thought maybe it had something to do with my sleep apnea mask. Maybe it had been too tight or mabe it moved and cut off blood flow or something. I gave it a day to see if the swelling would go down. I kept cleaning it like I was supposed it and actually added extra cleanings to see if that would help. Next morning it was worse, I called the shop and spoke with Mark who had done that particular piercing and told him what was going on. He asked me if I had a dog who sleeps with me, I said yes he refuses to sleep anywhere else. He said that it sounds like it may just need to ne cleaned. I went in and he took the back off and cleaned it. I was shocked when he showed me that he had found 3 small dog hairs! He put a longer back on to give the swelling some room (it cost me all of $15). Within days my ear was back to normal. They guys here REALLY know their stuff! As long as you do as they tell you and you dont wait when you see theres a problem or issue they can usually fix it. Its when people wait for LONG periods of time and dont do as theyre told that these wonderful guys cant help. I always recommend Big O Tattoo to any and everyone to asks me where they should go for tattoos and piercings. There usually isnt hardly much of a wait for piercings but when it comes to scheduling for tattoos the artists can get pretty busy but they are well worth the wait!

The guys were super nice, Logan did great, very clean shop as well. Will be coming back for more!

Logan the artist does excellent work and puts his all in his work too.

Dope ass shop. Clean and professional with talented artists.

I stopped in while visiting from out of town for a small tattoo Id been wanting. The artist, BJ, was nice and squeezed me in at the end of the night even though he had to stay late to do it. He has quite a few awards/trophies for his work. The receptionist was also very nice. The place is clean. I would recommend Big Os for your next tattoo and I would definitely go back for future work if I lived in Lincoln.

Great place to get a bellybutton piercing the guy Mattwas very helpful and explained everything. Will definitely recommend to anyonw wanting a piercing

Fun employees & great quality work

Great place for great ink

Love this place, wouldnt go anywhere else!!

The guy who peirced my septum, peirced it at an angle so one hole is farther back then the other

Always great!

Great staff, and great artists!

Best cupcakes ever!

Truely amazing artists who know what they are doing. I have been to several shops, and I do not recommend anyone go anywhere else. BJ stays pretty booked, but he is so very much worth the wait. I absolutley love my tattoos and I constantly get compliments on it. I have had over 16 hours in BJs chair and every time he is very professional and get more than my moneys worth in beautiful art.

Awesome atmosphere and skilled artist.

Best tattoo place in town

Awesome place to get tatted

Always the nicest people!
