Ive had great experiences each time Ive been! The last two times I worked with Dez and he was amazing! For a new artist, his work was and is great and I ended up getting two new pieces within a week from him. Definitely will be going back!

Let me start off by saying I am EXTREMELY clumsy. Im probably the last person who needs a piercing on their face however I always wanted my nostril pierced. So I came here. Not only were they SUPER nice about how anxious and nervous I was, but when the inevitable happened and my stud was pulled out and jewelry was lost they helped me get a new one AND put it in not once but TWICE in the past 4 months with absolutely NO question or judgment. They have answered any questions Ive had via messenger and even let me come by to check out my concern over an irritation bump. Again no judgment and completely professional. Long review but they have offered a lot of help in the past 4 months.

Heavy Metal tattoo is a great shop! I am so happy with the excellent work! Cant wait for my next session with Chris to finish this sleeve!! So much talent in one place. Heavy Metal delivers on all the details. Thank you!!

Love this place! Incredible artists there and the staff are awesome! Definitely recommend this place to everyone 💯

Outstanding artists, customer service, would personally recommend this tattoo shop to anyone looking for a tattoo or a piercing. Spencer the owner is very outgoing and will put your ideas onto paper to make it into some great artwork.

I choose Heavy Metal Tattoo while asking for a clean place and a great tattoo artist. I started my sleeve process with Angela “Lala” and I am so happy with the results. You enter as a client and leave as a friend. I highly recommend it because they are professional, a lot of talent in the building and very important it is clean and safe.

Very clean....it was my first tattoo and my artist was John. He made me feel calm and answered all the questions i asked. I will be going back to him for my next tattoo. Very satisfied.

I went here to get a tattoo and i was able to get exactly what i wanted and i was able to get it the same day. The artist was very professional and clean.

Dez was amazing...loved his work will be going again to him

Just got a much needed tattoo from Sonia here. Awesome atmosphere and she was great! Will visit again.

Nice people, got us in and out quick for piercings.

Spencer runs a nice, clean, and professional shop. Spencer is great with piercings! He has also done a lot of tattoos for my husband and me, good clean line work and shading. The other artists in the shop do fantastic work.

The Staff was very kind and did a VERY good job at explaining everything to me!!Very clean!I would so recommend this to anyone!

I had my labret done and it couldnt have gone any smoother. Spencer takes care of his customers by being polite, confident and does not skip the necessary steps to doing a body piercing. I am new to this region of North Carolina so if you are looking for a good place stop on by. If you are nervous, he is more than happy to explain how he will do your piercing step by step. Please make sure if you really want a piercing to book your appointment on the website first.

Got another daith loving it. Thanks Spencer

Chris was wonderful!! My tattoo turned out great!! Nice clean shop!!

They got back to me and set up an appointment quickly. They are very personable, and answer any questions that you may have.

Angie is AMAZING! We couldnt ask for a more talented artist and I mean ARTIST everything she does is art. No one else will ever touch me again!

Really awesome artist and was quick with my appointment actually got done before the time.. Very clean and easy going. Recommend them for your piercings and tattoos.. Ill definitely be going back for some ink

Great place. I reccomed this place highly . The staff is awesome. The only place I .go

Defiantly recommend Heavy metal tattoo and piercing! Angela ( Lala ) did my tattoos and my boyfriends and we love them. Her art work is amazing and beautiful and exactly what we wanted ! We Will definitely be going back to her for all our other tattoos.

Great place this is where I got my first tattoo

Had my tattoo done by Angela. This is the absolute best tattoo i’ve ever had. I’m so in love with it. Everyone was so nice and it was such a welcoming place. Very clean and professional! Come here for your tattoo needs! 😍

My tattoos were done by Angela and she is the BEST!!! Her artwork is amazing, shes super friendly and is there for you even after you leave the shop. My piercings and my daughters piercing were done by Spencer and he did a great job. Very clean looking and straight. Everyone in their shop is super friendly and very knowledgeable about what they do. I WILL NOT go anywhere else for tattoos or piercings and neither should you!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

Absolutely Unbelievable,Came Into Town Looking To Get A Small Tat,I Am On The Road Alot Cause I Am Entertainer,I Call They Say Sure First Come I Show Up First With No One Else There And They Say They Have No Time To Do It,Now Remenber They Just Said Sure Come On First Come,Well Fools They Are Cause I Give Real Tips And Money Is No Option,Very Disappointed Thanks For Waisting My Time.

Chris did a great job, and was very professional. I really appreciate the work put into my rose. Awesome work!

Preface: I have not been tattooed here (yet), but have an appointment to begin my sleeve early April, 2020.This is the type of Tattoo shop I like. Laid back, comfortable, music playing, and friendly, accommodating people. I’ve been here previously to get my son’s ears re pierced and they were great with him (9yo at the time. This place welcomes well behaved children, and there didn’t seem to be any inappropriate imagery in the lobby area, so in terms of a kid friendly tattoo/piercing studio this is about as good as it gets.The store seems fairly small, but seemed clean. All portfolios and cards are laid out to front so you can see all they offer at one time. The Front desk receptionist was very friendly and immediately referred me to a specific artist based on the design I have in mind. Her recommendation was sound, and I booked an appointment that day with DJ to get the sleeve started.If you prefer your tattoo shops more casual and relaxed, while maintaining cleanliness and professionalism, this could be your place. I will update this review when I’ve gotten my tattoo started.

Ive had two experiences here i took my daughter to get her lip pierced and to get my wife a tattoo. Unfortunately due to recent scaring my wife could not get the tattoo that she wanted. Brian was very professional and explained about her scars needing more healing time before tattoos can be done to prevent poor setting. I took advantage of the opening and got one. It was a great experience. We talked the whole time and joked around. He was extremely professional and I plan on going back for one more before I move out of state. He even gave us the name of a friend where we are going to get more later on.

Spencer(owner)is a nice guy,acts professional and does good work.I had a issue with a tattoo he done years ago and he seen I wasnt happy with it and fixed it for free!

Took my niece to get her septum pierced. Everyone was great, prices reasonable, shop was very clean!

Great work really seasoned artist. So happy with my ink!

Angela is simply the best and so very talented and gifted! Shes done all three of my tattoos and I cant wait until the next one!

Super nice loved it. Down to earth people and Im going back for my tattoos n piercings

Angela is amazing!!!!! She took my idea and made it better than I could ever imagine & The owner Spencer is also cool dude! I wish I could give 10 stars!

Tattoo turned out better than expected! Ask for Chris he does a great job!

Angela did all of my tattoos. (2 of 3 but the one she didnt do she had to touch up) . The entire place is very clean. Angela is an awesome artist and her colors pop.

Clean shop. Great artists.

Chris merker is a great artist. Very friendly. Would highly recommend.

I have been going here for a long time and I have never had a complaint about it! Every current artist here has done at least one piece of mine. This is also where I have gotten all of my piercings done. They are very sanitary, careful and informative with tattoos/piercings. For piercings they have a wide variety of jewelry. I always recommend Heavy Metal.

Very clean and professional with a great sense of humor

Clean very friendly atmosphere and the talent of these artist are amazing.

I love this shop everyone there is great. Best place to get a tattoo.

Angela has done two tattoos for me & Ive already booked another appointment! She is awesome and does great work 😊

Awesome staff

Awesome! Cool people and I got a special and amazing tattoo thanks to Angela Evans 😁

This place is great! The employees are awesome. Ive had piercings done by Spencer and I love them! His selection of jewelry leaves options for everyone and he has great quality stuff! I also recently had a tattoo done by Brian and it is beyond perfect. My best one yet hands down. Will always recommend!!

Angela LaLa took what was in my head and made it real which made me very happy.

Very gentle

Good place for getting Tattoos and piercings! Friendly Staff

Ive gotten my first tattoo since moving here in the foothills of NC, Angela Evans did an amazing job on my design, and I plan on coming back for more in the future.

Amazing artists and great place

Fantastic customer service and personable employees

Angela did my first tattoo and that very same day I booked my second with her. I love her work and shes really great and easy to talk to!

I had Spencer do my industrial bar! He was very understanding with me being nervous, did very well and Im vwry pleased with it. I HIGHLY recommend!!!!!

Awesome very nice and informative! Highly recommend

SPENCER and the whole crew are great .Had Spencer do a cover for me and he his the man .Would recommend this shop to anyone !!!

Great artists, super clean

Spencer does good work and is great place to go I highly recommend it for piercings or tattoos

Brian is an absolutely INCREDIBLE artist!! He does exactly what the customer asks for. He is professional, sweet, clean, and very skilled!!! I always recommend him to anyone looking for top notch, high quality work. If you bring in a picture and ask him to tattoo this on me make sure every detail is what you want, because every detail will be added from the design you bring in. He is very meticulous, detailed, and thorough so if he does a bad job it is because the art you brought in was bad art that was essentially transcribed on to your skin.

Ask for Darvis aka DJ for quality tattoos at a respectable price! He did praying hands on my neck about 3 weeks ago and they came out great! The healing process was great because he takes care of his customers! He made sure I was comfortable before doing the tattoo (do to the fact that I had to bend my neck the whole time). Call and ask for him, you’ll be satisfied for sure!

Chris did a great job on my tattoosDefinitely will be going back.

Great place for a custom tattoo! Angela did and amazing job on my American Flag!!

I don’t know the shop individually but I know dj who just started there! He is a very talented tattoo artist but not only is his work great but he has a great personality which goes a long way with me! One of the most reasons why no one else will ever tattoo me and he skills of course!! He’s great highly recommend him to anyone!

Spencer done amazing work! Thank you!

Great artists, amazing work, and friendly atmosphere!!! My artist for this tattoo is Chris Merker, awesomeness!!!

I am super pleased by my experience here! Everyone was super nice and my tattoo looks awesome. I will definitely be back and am already telling a couple people to come here for their tattoos. Special thanks to Spencer for the tattoo and awesome service! Y’all rock!

Lady with owl tattoo was awful.

Spencer was amazing today when I went in to get my daith piercing done today. I was super nervous because of a bad experience it wasn’t nearly as painful as I had worked it up to be but he was so patient with me. Thank you!

Very inviting environment. Went and got my ears done by Spencer and he was great. He let me watch the sanitation process so I knew what went on. I highly reccommend!

Angela Evans did an amazing job on my owl family tattoo!

Very clean and professional environment. Great artists who are very knowledgeable and helpful with all tattoo and piercing inquiries. They have a very large selection of top quality jewelry and artists that specialize in many different styles of tattooing. Highly recommend going to Heavy Metal for your tattoo and piercing needs.

Great Experience. The man who pierced my nose was very friendly and obviously knew what he was doing. He was very clean and everything was sterile. The price was great. I would definitely recommend.

Angela is amazing and her work is 💯

Best place ever I took my daughter for her tattoo and they was the best and the piece was great we will be going back to get more very soon my daughter is so happy with her tattoo

Had a very good experience here. The tattoo artists are all genuine/nice people who are very good at what they do. Thanks DJ for giving me my first tattoo!!

Chris the artist and Spencer the piercer both are awesome, cleanness experience and definitely will come back for the next inks or/and piercings! Thank you!!

Angela does amazing work. She really shines when you let her go wild with an idea. Shop is clean and the rest of the staff is very welcoming.

Awesome shop amazing artwork

I thought this place was very cool and the people were nice!

Clean shop, friendly artists and short wait times for tattoos or piercings.

Best tattoo and piercing place ever. I tried them on my self and they were amazing ...... I was impressed with the great care and precautions they took for cleanliness and both her nose ring and ear bar look amazing

Spencer, the owner, is so super helpful. He will listen to all of your ideas and put them into ink just like you imagined. Hes also the best peircer Ive ever been to. No skin trauma at all and very little pain. I 100% recommend him.

Went in saturday for a tattoo to cover mastectomy.Spencer was honest told me he wanted to draw it up for me he wants it to be great so come yesterday i was so nervous but he went out of his way to make me comfy including moving all his equipment to do it in another room so i had more privacy. not gonna lie hurt like dickens but the experience and work was beautiful. He went out of his way to make it perfect. i would reccommend him to anyone thank you spencer!

Very professional and clean! I was seen promptly and my piercing looks great. Will be back for any future work and I highly recommend to anyone considering any tattoos or piercings.

Spencer is a very friendly guy, I felt very comfortable and at home in his shop. The tattoo I got was just what I wanted and his prices are very reasonable. I will be going to him for all my future work! Highly recommended!

Very clean, friendly place with fabulous artists and easy going vibe. Chris Merker did a wonderful piece for my collection. I will be a repeat client and highly recommend.

Didnt hurt at all. Healing nicely nose pierced

Kerri was amazing!!!!

DJ Stacy is great! He does all my tattoos. Shop is nice and clean and everyone is very friendly.

Clean place.. Looks like they do great work and they are cool yet professional folks

DJ Stacy does great work. Chill vibe. Highly recommend.

They made me feel so comfortable before I got my piercing. They even hyped me up. In my head i was so scared but it didn’t hurt a bit. I recommend going here. Very friendly environment.

I have had a lot of work done here, tattoos and piercings. I get stopped a lot in public by people telling me how awesome my ink is. When they ask, I tell them Heavy Metal and brag about how great, clean, professional, and what great prices they have. I will always come back for ink and piercings everytime I need one. I am from Myrtle Beach and these guys top any of the shops down there. Love this place!

Just got this big ass tribal tattoo covered up by Brian after I was turned away at 6 other tattoo shops. Looks awesome and cant wait to get more work done by him in a few weeks. Hes the go to guy period!

Me and my lil sis got matching tats today! The work was great, the store was clean and the price is affordable for the quality of work
