Michelle gave me my tattoo! She had to cover a difficult scar and I must say you can’t even tell now. My tattoo looks beautiful. I liked it so much that I went back for a cover up tattoo and it also turned out well. She took my ideas and made them even better. She also is great at just drawing freehand.My experience with her overall was wonderful. I’ll definitely go back again sometime.I also met other employees and artists and everyone there is really cool!I definitely recommend them !

My friend and I went in with very simple tattoo requests. We paid way more than they were worth, and he even slipped and put a line where there shouldn’t have been. Left a review on their Facebook page and the artist was EXTREMELY rude and even tried to attack me personally saying I have a “selfish generation z way of thinking”.

I love this place!! I’ve gotten two tattoos from this place and both of them were exactly what I wanted:) The staff is so nice and helped my friends and I get the perfect tattoo. The process was really quick and we didn’t have to wait at all! Gerald has done both of my tattoos and I will continue to go to him because they are always perfect if not better:) He is hilarious and makes you feel very comfortable! If you’re like me and you like small tattoos with thin lines definitely go here!! I’ll be back for another very soon:))

I got my first non-traditional ear piercing today at External Ink - a very feared cartilage piercing- and my piercer, Jon did a super fantastic job with it! It didnt hurt more than a second! It was easier than a flu shot, and I love the placement of it. Jon gave super detailed verbal directions for caring for my piercing, as well as a written set of instructions (because who actually remembers directions that are given out loud). Overall I was extremely pleased with my experience, and I will be sure to come back for more tiny holes in my body!

No one in the shop, not even the piercer, wore a mask. Very worrisome. He marked and pierced my nose way too quick and didn’t even ask if I liked the placement before piercing it. Additionally, he gave no warning before putting the needle through. Don’t recommend.

I originally posted about how no one there wears a mask. I had to bring my daughter back in there because her earring came out. When I brought her in I asked the piercer if he could put on a mask and actually brought and extra one along with me. He went on to say that wearing masks is against his religion and that he also has a license to carry a gun and if he were to wear a mask he could get arrested. Yes he said that! I held my tongue. He put the earring back in her ear, brushed off what he said, and I thought all was well. I get home and clean her ears and found that there is an extra hole. I asked him if he was going through the same hole and he said yes. He did not. That meant that he basically pierced my daughter’s ear again so she has two holes!I got the manager on the phone and he started to talk about the masks! At this point that is my secondary concern!!!!! But I will say what it boils down to is this. It doesn’t matter what you believe about wearing masks; it matters what those around you believe about wearing masks. Because we aren’t being asked to wear masks to protect ourselves, we are asked to wear masks to protect others. So when people see you not wearing a mask, those who agree with you might think you are smart and free. But those who believe the reasons government officials and scientists give us for wearing masks, those people look at you and think — ”that person doesn’t care if I die.” I’m a person who is immune compromised. I brought my infant in to your establishment. It is what is and it will never happen again!

This was one of the best experiences for something new. They did an amazing job explaining every step and made sure I knew what was going to happen. I had the pleasure of meeting artist Dave. He did an amazing job on my tattoos and comforted me through. I would recommend this to anyone thinking of getting a tattoo or wants to get another one!

I went there as a walk-in and had John do my second lobe piercing. He was very fast and efficient, professional, and calming. Definitely made it a great experience and answered any questions that I had. Really great place! Definitely coming back for my other piercings!

I got my first tattoo here and had a great experience! I am not a fan of needles so I was slightly anxious about that, but the artist Michelle was so awesome I barely even thought about it! I would absolutely recommend Eternal Ink and specifically Michelle, although Im sure all of the artists here are just as great as she is!

Go in there on a Saturday and they have an apprentice piercer and an artist Michele who can’t even do a small color tattoo.mediocre establishment at best.

Review №18

This place doesn’t deserve nearly as many stars as it has, they are dirty, showcases, tools, all visibly unsanitary & it smells like cigarettes as soon as you walk in. Worst of all, NONE OF THEIR EMPLOYEES WEAR MASKS EVEN WHEN THEY’RE INCHES AWAY FROM YOUR FACE DOING A PIERCING... DO NOT COME HERE!!!!

I have 2 piercings and a tattoo done at eternal ink over the years and have always been super happy! Roberta is the best with piercings and I have never had issues with any of her piercings. I highly recommend her! Dave did a supernatural tattoo for me and my two friends about 5 years ago and they turned out perfectly! Everyone there is always super friendly!

Today, we took my 8 year old daughter to get her ears pierced for her birthday. We walked in and immediately noticed how clean and neat everything was. Roberta was great - she greeted us, reviewed all the paperwork and things we needed to know. Everything was sterile and VERY professional. She reviewed how to take care of my daughters ears once we get home and let us know to come back if we have any troubles. She does everything according to State Laws. Do not go to the mall - they are not held by any standards and their methods are not approved.I recommend Eternal Ink to anyone who wants piercing. Awesome!!

I came here on vacation and my mom and I decided to get our nose pierced. Roberta did an amazing job!! I had an awful nose piercing experience years ago so I was pretty nervous but she explained everything and was so quick it was almost painless. I wish I lived closer so all my future tattoos and piercings could be done here. Thank you Roberta !!

Went in as a walk in to get a tattoo on my hand. There was only one artist there Michelle, she acted like it was a problem to want a color tattoo let alone a tattoo period. Seemed miserable to be there and had a terrible unprofessional attitude. Would ask for anyone but her if you go there.

I will not go anywhere else to get a tattoo. If you want to work with a great artist and get an excellent tattoo, this is the place. Dave was fantastic. Ive gotten 3 tattoos from him and have absolutely loved all of them.

Been knowing Jerry for 15+ years. Only did 1 many years ago but he takes pride in his work. So if looking for the best go to him or take his referral knowing you got peace of mind with a permanent new body mark

Review №38

The piercer was rude and rushed a lot. He marked the piercing and went right into piercing it instead of letting me see the spot. You should be showing the customer the placement before piercing! Especially since its on the face!

Me and my friends got piercings there. Understaffed, pricey, unsanitary, and gave no aftercare instructions. My friend even passed out and they didn’t even have water to give her. Kind of a ridiculous place

I highly recommend Eternal Ink tattoo! I’ve been coming here for years. Jon does my piercings and Michelle does my tattoos. The staff (Jon, Jerry, Michelle, & John) are all friendly, outgoing, welcoming, very knowledgeable about their work etc. Every piercing I have has all be done by Jon. (2 helix, forward helix, snug, rook, tragus, tongue, nipples, Christina, VCH, lip, nose & navel). All healed wonderfully, no rejection or complications. I was thoroughly instructed on aftercare for each and every piercing along with an aftercare guide on paper. Everything was sanitized, packaged needles are always shown to me and opened in front of me before use, he’s always been very quick and precise with all of my piercings.Michelle is my go-to tattoo artist (they’re all amazing artists btw). Michelle is very patient with my requests and she’s very understanding. I have a handful of tattoos done by Michelle at which are all very clean, great line work & lettering, excellent healing, she’s light handed, very precise and the list goes on.I’ve highly recommend coming here for both tattoos and piercings . Great staff as a whole. Fair pricing.Thanks again, Talia.
