I’ve known the crew at Monster Ink for some time and have followed them through their journey of starting the business. Both my wife and I have been customers, and we plan on having our daughter get her ears pierced when she is old enough. Great environment, feels like a true studio where all their artists’ work is on display on the walls and in cases. The owner, Taylor, is as professional as they get and is willing to help anybody at any level of body art and modification. Thank you again for the experience!

I would give this place way more stars if I could!
I worked with Marcus to get my conch done and to put in new jewelry for my other piercing.

Absolutely amazing person! He walked me through the entire process and made sure I was doing good! He was honest and very down to earth about everything and he was very knowledgeable!

Highly recommend!

Marcus was wonderful! Answered all my questions, and the process was quick and as painless as it could be. Place was super clean. Definitely will be back.

First ear piercing for my daughter went insanely well thanks to Brenna and the staff for making everything go so smoothly! The studio was clean, vinyl was rockin at a calming volume and start to finish went perfectly, Brenna took her time marking and explaining everything to my daughter before she did anything and that made her so comfortable, and she didn’t even cry!! I loved that the flat back stud was the only choice too because my daughter hasn’t had that annoying irritation we all had to endure as kids with the long stud to the neck lol. Best experience, thank you MonsterInk!

My daughter wanted her ears pierced and as soon as we got the right paperwork it was great! Haylee says Marcus was super nice and she wants to give him 10 stars! She’s so happy! She now is telling everyone even the dog that she has earrings in so they need to be careful 🤣
