Very clean! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They were great about being accommodating of my allergies that are odd and very specific. I love my new piercing and will hopefully be back for more soon!

Delia is the best. I was running late due to a stressful situation. She stayed a bit after closing just to help me put in some (actually, a lot of) pain in the neck earrings. Our conversation was the best! If you want polite, affordable, and down to earth, go here!

I stopped in to East Coast this past weekend for a septum piercing with Delia. I knew I was going to get lightheaded and told her so. She was so kind to me! She made sure I had water and pointed the fan at me, she even gave me a lollipop! Ive been wanting my septum pierced for so long but have held off because I knew how my body would react, Delia made me feel so much better about the whole thing. My piercing didnt hurt at all and looks great, thank you!

I came in for an eyebrow piercing 5 months ago expecting Joshua to pierce me as he was the only piercer on the website. When I got there a woman who I didnt see mentioned on their website was preparing to pierce me instead. I went along with it instead of speaking up because of my anxiety but i wish I brought it up to Joshua who was at the front desk. She pierced me and proceeded to drop the ball of the piercing on the floor before putting it back on my piercing. Thats really when I shouldve said something but I was too nervous and just paid and left. It turns out it was pierced too shallow because it never healed and I had to take it out today because it was a pain. So now Ill have to wait for it to heal and get it repierced elsewhere :(

Me and my friend showed up thirty minutes before close and they were still willing to accommodate both of us. I almost backed out because I was being a baby and they still let me come back once I chickened out even though it was 20 minutes after closing time. All three piercings came out great. We will both be coming back for more in the future.

Great experience. Josh was funny and professional, he made the piercing an easy experience. Shop was clean and Covid protocols were clearly spelled out. My piercing is perfect and looks exactly like I wanted. All around, an awesome experience. Recommend 10/10.

Kellz and I had been communicating on Instagram for a few weeks and I finally made my appointment.I was getting a memorial tattoo for my Dad and it was a big risk for me to go to someone that I had never been to before but his tattoos on his Instagram were great.Kellz listened to what I wanted and gave me the best memorial tattoo I could have asked for. Hes gentle with the tattoo gun and doesnt gouge, my skin doesnt even really look irritated. Ive already talked to him about my next tattoo and I will definitely be back! 😁

This place is awesome! Their COVID protocols are really reliable - everything was quick and clean but the piercer still took her time and was super careful. I got my septum pierced here and was super nervous as I have a low pain tolerance and have heard some nasty septum piercing stories, but it was 1) so painless, Tatiana did an amazing job 2) really even and perfectly placed 3) healing so well! Im on week three and im shocked by how nicely its healing *knock on wood* and 4) really affordable!! anywho, love this place! 5 stars all around:))))

Ive had Tatiana pierce myself and my daughter quite a few times now. She is by far the best out there! Very direct, down to business and professional all of my piercing have healed faster than previous piercings. Also cant beat the price! Go she her shes great!

Review №13

I was very pleased with my visit. I got my first piercing (aside from my ears) here yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. The system they have in place for covid is great and if you don’t mind waiting, this is the place to go. Prices are great too! Tatiana was very clean, very professional, easy to talk to and she got me in and out as fast as she could without rushing. She even talked me through it so I would not work myself up and I plan to come back and have another piercing done! 10/10 would recommend this place to friends and family!

Review №17

The artist was talented and the location was definitely strict with covid rules(in a safe way).However, we drove over an hour to get here (coming from a funeral) and once we arrived, we got an email asking us to come later than our set appointment. We wouldve canceled all together, rather than waiting 45 minutes, but we had already given a $100 non-refundable deposit. That was red flag number one. Upon sitting down in my chair, I put my arm in somebody elses ink. Red flag number two. But, I couldnt afford to lose my deposit and go somewhere else. The artist recleaned the area and began working. Upon leaving, it definitely looked overworked. There were spots you could tell that had been gone back over and appeared like deep divots in my skin. I continued to care for it carefully (cleaning on schedule, unscented anti bacterial soap, unscented lotion). This is my 6th and smallest tattoo and I have never had any issues before, I usually heal fast and I know how it should look healing. It never began to rise above the skin as they normally do when healing. It appeared to get deeper each day and it got red and inflamed around the area. In day two small pustules began popping up. However, I have now been prescribed a steroid lotion as my tattoo looks infected, and an artist I had look at it closer to home believes it is going to scar in some areas. Im devastated as this was a tattoo to remember my Dad, who passed this month, that my cousin and I both got. Its in a visible space on my wrist so I cant even get it covered up, as I dont want something large there.When you call the shop itll ring the first time (they wont answer), and when you call back, the line rings busy. Almost as if they unhook the phone. There is never an option to leave a voicemail. Upon messaging, the artist will occasionally reply but usually leaves you on read.Definitely do your research before selecting this location.

AMAZING!!!! Tatiana did my daughter and my piercings and she is absolutely amazing. She puts you at ease and talks to your throughout the piercing process and makes you feel comfortable to the point where you feel youve know her forever. East Coast is where its at for getting professional piercings by Tati highly recommended.

East coast is by far one of the best shops I have been to. I will only go here for my tattoos and piercings. They’re all so friendly and professional and also sarcastic and fun. They make the experience truly amazing. Calvin did my most recent tattoo and he was amazing and the piercer did an amazing job and was friendly and fun! Also a very clean shop! Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Josh went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable with our piercings. He was very thorough in explaining each step of the process. Josh was so friendly and spent time with us to make us feel at ease. His shop is fresh and new, and is exceptionally clean. We will definitely be back for any other piercings and tattoos!

Review №29

Tatiana did my nose piercing uneven from my other one & it was lopsided in my nose, she treated me very rudely when addressed to her and trying to discuss a repiercing. Don’t think she should be piercing here, her work & attitude are both completely unprofessional and she seems to have a history of bad piercings for reviews. The piercing was so awful it was taken out immediately. It is clear they are unable to take criticism as every negative review is responded with sarcasm and very rudely.

Tatiana is an excellent piercer. She is professional, informative and friendly.

Review №31

I went In thinking I needed a new nose ring because mine was too long. Josh told me that it could just be adjusted and wouldn’t hang out of my nostril anymore! He adjusted it for me instead if making the money on a new nose ring. Thanks for being awesome!

Review №32

The piercer, Tatiana put my tongue piercing in completely wrong.. I had to go to another place to get it taken out. They were shocked how horribly done my tongue was. You could tell it was pierced diagonally and not straight. In my opinion she shouldn’t be piercing tongues anymore.

I just walked into the shop on Sunday...(after reading reviews of past customers who actually had work done at the shop)... I was very happy to be accommodated on the spot. I needed my Monroe redone after letting it fully close after removing it for a medical procedure back in February. I was so pleased by both the professionalism of the staff and cleanliness of the shop.When I was done I enquired about getting a tattoo done next time I’m in town.Please don’t be deterred by poor reviews written by people who never had work done in the shop. I stand by my 5 star review and will 100% return for more work.

Review №35

I’m not sure what the 2:30 is in reference to.My friend and I both got piercings here about 2 months ago.I have never been to a piercing place where you don’t choose your earrings. (My friend and I both have quite a few piercings. )The earrings used are obviously low quality- I took very good care of my piercing but they would not heal, while hers got infected very quickly. I had to change the earrings out, and still they are not healing well.I got another piercing at a different place only a few months before these and it healed in about 2 weeks.These piercings are going on 3 months and still are painful/swollen.

Review №38

Very rude, we were told to call back at a certain time by the tattoo artist. We called back when we were told and the piercer was very rude and told us we couldnt book an appointment although the tattoo artist said we could. We tried explaining that and she was telling us she was just the piercer and didnt know anything, yet told us we couldnt book an appointment for tattoos.

East did amazing work for 2 of my tattoos. I saw someone write about customer service not being great and I dont believe that is true. Ive met 3 of the guys there including East and they all have a dry sense of humor, thats all. Compared to other tattoo shops, they provided the best service Ive experienced.

Got snake bite piercings here a few years ago and the piercer was awesome about it didn’t mind when I asked if he could tell me when he was putting the needle in I’m writing the review now as I am currently thinking about when I should book a slot to come in to get a tattoo highly recommend East Coast super friendly and amazing at what they do

Review №44

I absolutely love this place, and honestly dont know what Im going to do for my piercings when I leave to go back to Washington. Ive gotten my septum and bellybutton done here; Josh is the best piercer I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. Hes personable, professional, and super funny! He always makes sure youre happy with where he marks your piercing before he sticks the needle through, and jokes around to help you calm down if youre nervous. Not to mention his pup is the best pup in the world???? 10/10, if I could give them more stars I would. Cant wait for my next piercing!

Ive gotten 3 different tattoos here, and honestly I openly recommend this shop to anyone who wants to get good ink. Prices are definitely fair for the quality, all the artists are kind and amazing at their job, and the atmosphere is just chill. And of course, everything is very sanitary and clean. All in all, its a great shop.

I called ahead a few days before i wanted to get a helix piercing and they said i could just walk in and id be all set. The day comes when i want to go and get it done, and the lights are dimmed in the store and the door is locked, but someone was sitting inside. I went online to check the hours and it said it was open until 8pm that night; it was 6:30 when i got there. I then called and asked what time they were open until that night and whoever picked up rudely hung up on me.Ive never been here before but i sure as hell will never even consider this place ever again. Not after some horrible customer service!

This is one of the worst places I have ever been too!!! I had called ahead of time to see if they would be open to get a helix piercing and the man said he only does walk - ins and the last piercing he would do was at 7:00 and I get there at 5:30 and I walk up to he door and the lights were dim and the door was locked and I tried to call again to see if I heard them wrong and no one answered... the next day I call again and they say once again the last piercing they will do is at 5:00 and I get there at 2:30 and go up and all the lights are off and and the door is locked and the open sign is off!! I call once again to see if I was wrong and there was no answer!! And I look inside and there was a dog lying on the couch... no food no water!!! And there was Wendy’s cup and food!!! I will never consider going to this place ever again!!

Review №55

Went to get a cartilage piercing. The man who worked here told us yes he could do the piercing and to go inside and wait, he would be right in. Well, we went in. There was not one customer there and no other artists there as well. We sat and waited for approximately a half hour, as this man sat on the porch and ignored us. Eventually another person came up on the porch and he just sat there talking to him. He could see us thru the window and kept looking back at us. We finally got up and left. Apparently he did not want our money or he did not find us worthy of his services. As we walked by him, oh, Im so sorry. Such a shame because we went to East Coast last year for a piercing and a female tattoo artist was so pleasant and did a great job, this is why we went back. Whatever, we went to Tattoo Agony in Pelham. This artist was a gentleman and wanted our business. The piercing from Agony Tattoo is great. I will never go back to East Coast and I will not recommend it to friends and family. I felt like we were being judged and just not worthy of this mans time.

Review №58

Ive gotten 6 piercings from Josh in the last two months. Second lobe piercings, two cartilage, a conch, and a daith. Josh is really funny, explains what hes doing and is really quick and smooth with the needle. AND theres a dog in the shop - a beautiful pittie bulldog mix named GypsyWith my last and most recent piercing - the daith part of my ear is very small which makes an already tricky piercing a little trickier. He had a tough time getting the needle through at a tough angle, and I ended up passing out for a few seconds (this is known to happen with daith piercings!) My point here is how he and his apprentice knew exactly what to do and moved quickly to make sure I didnt fall, laid the chair back, and tried to cool me down until the dizziness wore off. It only took a few minutes and we all chatted and joked around until I felt well enough to leave.Bottom line: 13/10 would recommend Josh and East Coast for any piercing!

I went here for a daith piercing, so Josh did it. He accommodated my medical issues (I have a fainting disorder). The place was clean, Josh walked me through each step of the piercing, and it was very affordable. I walked in and was out within 15 minutes. In a few weeks I will be very excited to get my other side done!

Review №62

I went in there super excited to set up an appointment for a cover up. I hate to give a terrible review. There are very talented artists here so my review is not aimed at everyone. I dont know the gentlemans name that I talked, but he was not friendly at all. I came in and greeted him, and not knowing I stood in front of the TV. He makes a hand gesture telling me to move out of the way. He looked like he couldnt be bothered with what I had to say. Then I asked if he had any suggestions for cover up ideas. He says Here is a suggestion you need to have an idea of what you want Well I asked for a suggestion because I know cover ups are limited to certain ideas. Needless to say that one encounter was enough to turn me away from making an appointment.

I found these guys to be very unhelpful. I emailed from THEIR website to see if they had experience with white tattoos and about how much they cost. They emailed me back that I have to call or come into the shop. That is a $50 deposit that goes toward your tattoo. Then they told me any other questions to CALL the shop.Why do they have a form to email them on their website if they want people to call? And they never answered my question so I am going to assume they dont have the experience needed. Customer service is not their strong suit apparently.
