The staff was very unprofessional when it came to my septum piercing. My nose bled terribly and the piercer tried to blame my movement but she pierced my septum twice, making me have to feel the pain twice as much. I had to make a scene to get a free nose ring because I was so frustrated with the results. It looked crooked and amateur. I only went because I got my first piercing there but I dont know the current owners. I wouldnt go back for a piercing. The guy is pretty cool but the woman does most of the work. I was not pleased with her performance or personality.

The blond hair lady that works in the front is VERY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL!!! The place is overly priced!!! Idk what is the lady problem but she couldn’t be working in customer service if she has such a bad attitude!! I’ll NEVER step foot back into that place!!

I was calling around to see how much a specific piercing was and the guy on the phone told me they cant discuss prices over the phone its “store policy”. I have never heard of that because especially if Im trying to price a piercing not tattoo 🤦🏻‍♂️

The woman that works here have a very terrible attitude I wanted to get a tattoo but since the tatoo guy had a client, I couldnt talk to him so this woman seem like she was having a bad day became very rude went I tried to ask if theres a specific time I could come back because of her I wouldnt go back are recommended anyone to. All I wanted was the availability of tattoo artists

I cant say enough about this place! 18 months ago I had 4 piercings done. Saturday evening I decided to join the world of ink.... without an appointment I was able to share my vision and they made it better and made it happen in less than an hour... Beast mode! As a newbie to the ink world I found the owner and the artist to be professional, patient, and courteous.... I couldnt be more pleased w the outcome. Originally I vowed one tattoo and thats it. I am now in the process of designing my 2nd and it will undoubtedly be done by Evolution.

Got my tattoo this week. I like it. BUT, I was charged $100 for something that should of been less. I know I had the option to walk out. I didnt because this was a random thing.The guy was cool. Just because of the price I wouldnt go back. Best of luck!

The piercer is horrible. Definitely shouldnt have a license. Unable to insert basic nose jewelry. Pulled and tugged at my nose for 20 mins. Eventually told her to stop and left without the jewelry in. Just a red swollen nose.Re their response: There was no bump in my nose before she tried jammed the ring in nor was i in pain. Thank you for emphasizing that all she had to do was insert the new ring or repierce if need be and she couldnt even do that. But frankly, if I had simply looked through the reviews on here, I would have seen that its established that she in fact, is not a good piercer; so that is definitely on me!

Today I took both my boys to get their ears pierced and Evolution had a clean set up, was very professional, and we had a great experience. The Piercer got the boys to trust him and feel comfortable! We were able to laugh with the staff! I would recommend going! The ear piercings cost 10$ for each with a decent looking ear ring. They gave me directions with a paper on how to care for them!

Tattoo artist is horrible, had to go to another to another tattoo parlor, to get the horrible work that was done fixed, and I never went back to evolution.

Review №17

Do NOT get pierced here. Piercings that should be minimally painful are drawn out and end up hurting much more than usual. I saw them use piercing guns for lobe piercings—what reputable piercer uses a piercing gun for anything???? The piercer I had also gives out terrible aftercare advice, telling people to buy Bactine and other stuff that will just aggravate your piercing. I have never left a review of anything before, but their practices are irresponsible and ignorant at best, and dangerous at worst. While I was here someone actually came in with an infected piercing they had gotten here (the same one I had gotten moments before...), obviously not a good sign. Please, listen to all the negative piercing reviews and go somewhere that actually knows what they’re doing!

This review is not for the tattoo artist! He does amazing work!Worst place to go to for piercings!!!! DO NOT GET PIERCED HERE!!!!! Very unprofessional! Lack of knowledge! I went to get the snake eyes and when I called them because the jewelry was too tight and my tongue had no room to heal they told me it was normal to leave it like that because in a month it will go back to normal....It is NOT NORMAL for my tongue to swallow the piercing!!!! You literally hardly can not see the silver balls in my tongue! I asked if they could switch it out and they said no because it’s not recommended!! Now I’m on my way to a different tattoo shop and have to pay more money to get my issue resolved!!!I also contacted the BBB!

Lady who pierces has slippery fingers... She got my piercing through straight, but she still dropped the back. It fell onto my lap. I thought of demanding a refund then and there. This is after a lot of painful tugging and pulling. I decided not to make a scene. Im giving 3 stars because she didnt mess me up. But some of my friends cant say the same 👀.

I got my ears pierced for a reasonable price, $10 each. The shop was clean and I think they did a good job with the piercings. However, I wish they had given me any advice on how to care for them afterwards.
