This place is great, my artist was Zach and he was super helpful at listening to what I wanted and providing his own knowledge and expertise to find the best placement and design for my tattoos. He was also pretty quick and efficient and great to talk to. If I get another Ill definitely be coming back to him. Im very satisfied with my tattoos!

Have visited several times now. The shop is always clean, and quiet. The staff is kind & professional. Kyle does great work. He is always through. He talks you through the whole process, makes sure you are happy with the placement of your piercings & makes it as comfortable of a process as he can. I would highly reccomend him for anyone looking to add a piercing!

Super awesome experience getting a double nostril piercing. Kyle, the piercer, is so professional and everything is very clean. I received a piercing aftercare pamphlet that had a lot of helpful information as well. Will definitely be going back for another in the future.

I just had my very first visit to Venom Ink today. I was lucky enough to grab a last minute appointment with Teresa and I can not thank her enough! This was my longest session and largest tattoo to date. I was sooooo nervous beforehand, but after arriving the nerves settled quickly. The shop is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Teresas studio was spacious, spotless and very comfortable. She was so professional and super kind throughout our entire six hour session. Even feeding me pizza for lunch! The finished product was better than anything I could have hoped for. Teresas work is IMPECCABLE. Thank you thank you thank you!

The studio was welcoming and fun to look around. Chad was easy and funny but professional and caring. I enjoyed the long day and my artwork of my boy is the greatest. I cant wait to spend another long day with Chad getting more. Thank you Chad from the bottom of my heart for putting that beautiful piece of art on me. Ill treasure it always!

Review №18

I got my septum pierced by Kyle 3 weeks ago, and the experience was great. He was everything I read about in other reviews...thoughtful, kind, ready to answer all questions, moved at my pace, and never made me feel pressured or uncomfortable. This was my first non-earlobe piercing, and my first time getting pierced at a real place (aka not the mall), so I understandably a little nervous. I was also afraid I might pass out. Kyle was really helpful, and chatted with me throughout the whole process. As a young woman trying something new alone, it was really a great experience. Thank you Kyle!

Kyle is the most patient and kind person with piercings. No matter how many piercings I’ve had, I’m such a baby with any needles. Kyle took his time with me, and he has a very calming presence about him which made it a great experience!

I had my bottom lip done by Kyle and he was very professional, took his time, made sure it was gonna be in the perfect spot to not hit my teeth..which Ive never once had anyone bother checking that sorta thing and Ive had my bottom lip pierced once before (snake bites) and had my munroe done 3 times now. He also did my hubbys eyebrow and covered the scar perfectly he has on his eyebrow with the piercing. He was very friendly and attentive to any and every question we had and we had a wonderful experience!! Definitely reccomend this guy for ur piercings! Thanks Kyle!!

Just had Josh Anderson do a tattoo on my forearm. I struggled to put words to what i was looking for, but he turned my words into an amazing tattoo giving me beyond what I had imagined. Hes a professional at what he does, safe and clean. Josh is a incredible artist and the whole shop atmosphere has an extremely professional and relaxing feel to it. It was even awesome to have the legend/owner Chad come in and say that my new tattoo looked awesome! Definitely recommend to anyone wanting real art on there skin!

Review №41

High quality service. Artists know what they are doing; very professional, and give good advice about tattoos. A friend of mine gets theirs done here and recommended that I get mine there. I came in with ideas as to what I wanted, and they matched me with an artist, Zach. He looked over what I brought, gave me an idea how long each would take, costs, and which ones to avoid as a first tattoo.

Review №47

I had my labret and septum pierced here by Kyle. He couldnt have made the experience more relaxing or enjoyable. Its never fun having a needle stuck through your lip or your nose but he made it as easy as possible. He was also incredibly knowledgeable and willing to share every bit of information I needed to know. Im planning on going here in the future for my tattoos. The entire staff is so friendly and their work is amazing. I cant wait to return!

Review №48

Went there for piercings with Kyle. He kept my daughter at ease for her first time getting a cartridge piercing. An excellent experience and a definite recommendation for anyone looking to add a few holes to their ears, eyebrows or anything else. I had been in before to get jewelery and knew they ran an excellent, clean and knowledgeable facility.This should be your first and only stop for piercing needs.

Teresa did an amazing job with the remembrance piece I did for my mom. I threw ideas at her for it, and she made something so amazing and perfect that I cried. I still need to get it finished, however this was because of my own time restraints.I havent found a shop I was willing to say is where I will only go, but I can say this now. I would rather make the long drive here than go ANYWHERE else.

My experience at Venom Ink was nothing short of fantastic. Zack is not only an amazing artist but also a genuinely nice person whom I will gladly be giving more of my money to in the not too distant future. If you are currently on the fence about getting a tattoo or are undecided on where to go I highly recommend you give this shop (and Zack) a try. You wont be disappointed!

I love this place because of tattoo artist here. They are amazing artist in and out side of tattoos. Not only that they are always good to talk to. My wife has gotten 5 tattoos now from Liz and they have all come out amazing! I have gotten 3 from Chad now and I am so pleased with his work on my realistic lions that I want Chad to do my sleeve and back piece and no one else. My wife and I both agree that we wont go get a tattoo from anyone else besides Chad or Liz. So GO check them out before you make a mistake and go somewhere else.

Just had my fourth tattoo done, first time at Venom Ink. My artist was Dan Man Hands Kelley and there are not enough positive things to say about my experience. It is absolutely clear through looking at his past work, and in his methods when working with me from start to finish, that Dan is a master of his craft. Seeing someone who loves their job is always fantastic, but when they are also exceptional at what they do, you know youre in good hands. He laid out a very fair price right up front, made sure I had eaten and would let him know if I started feeling any ill effects, double checked I was satisfied with the stencil and placement before and after application, and gave me more detailed advice on how to properly care for the tattoo in the healing phase than any other artist Ive ever been to. Thorough from start to finish, impressive collection of work, and a good guy to boot. Ive already signed up for my next tattoo and Dan is the only one Im going to let handle my large project pieces. I recommend him on a professional and personal level.TL;DR- Amazing work, very fair pricing, highly recommended. Ask for Dan Kelley.

Review №63

I was referred to them for their fantastic artists by a friend. I sent a picture of my grandfather from the 60s and they said they couldnt do it because it wasnt clear enough. You could see facial features and was in good shape for the age and time. They said no. after trying to brighten up the picture via editing I decided to try again and send the picture to them through email, days pass and I am just ignored. Pathetic display of creative ability and just being able to make it happen by eye. Weak sauce.

Review №73

Very friendly, yet I had issues with the piercing during the healing process. I cleaned it daily and didnt change the labret. The person who pierced my cartilage told me that he put in a longer labret just in case it swelled during healing. A month later I woke up to find the ball of the labret stuck inside my ear, it was painful and had to be removed. Once I got it removed I looked at the labret and it was barely a centimeter long. He gave me a tiny labret instead of the long one that he promised. It healed up fine after removing the labret and its fine now. Yet the piercing mishap gave me a behind my ear around the piercing hole due to infection build up because of the baby sized jewelry.Other than that it was fine and Im happy with how it looks today ig

Venom Ink posted a photo of a friend of mine but in those photos were my 1 year old and due to the negativity and hatred in the post and the thousands of shares the post got I feel uncomfortable with the fact that my son is in these photos. I asked them to take the photo down and they refused and said that the photo with my son it is public domain. This is an integrity issue. Harassing a customer publicly due to a dispute about the final amount due is extremely inappropriate.
