Skin City Tattoo and Body Piercing

I can only speak of my experience with Steve the piercer on staff that day. He seemed annoyed as hell and unhappy to be there. I tried to take a picture or video and he wasn’t having it. I didn’t think it was a big deal or unprofessional to snap a picture during a piercing (ear). I’ve done it a few times at other shops, I had my collar bone pierced twice and my wrist pierced as well and a few others, I recorded during all occasions. My friend had her EAR pierced here and he freaked out over me trying to take a video or a picture. He totally ruined our experience! I will not be going to him or taking any of my friends here.

I come from out of state just to get inked here. Third time here and this place is always professional and clean. Great artists but Joe, your the best.

Seems like a decent place for tattoos. Wouldn’t suggest it for piercings.
This place is close to my work so I figured I’d stop in and finally get an ear piece I’d been wanting. When I got there there was no piercer around. I was told the person was on lunch and would be back shortly. I ended up waiting forty minutes before I gave up. A few weeks later I called to see if someone would be there when I stopped in. We started talking and I found out that they wouldn’t do the piercing I wanted (I don’t really hold this against them, I wanted to do a surface piercing on my arm). A few days after that I went back into the shop to do a different surface piercing. This time someone was there but they had no bars and only one dermal anchor.
Overall just not worth the hassle. If you’re in the area I’d suggest going the extra 15 minutes over to Adorn. Which is actually what they themselves suggested I do.

I have been going to Skin City for a little over 4 years now. I was first recommended to go see Caitlyn from my now wife. I have gotten tattooed by Caitlyn and Joe. I have been more than pleased with the work from both. Caitlyn actually referred me to Joe, he is does more of the style that I am into. My wife has been going to Caitlyn for about 5 years, she does some amazing work. Joe has never let me down on any of my work, everything has been outstanding. Joe has just started my chest piece, I am excited to see the finished product.
The shop is always super clean, which is a big deal to me because of my background. The stations are cleaned before and after each customer to prevent any biohazard cross contamination. This is probably one of the cleanest if not the cleanest tattoo shops I have been in.
Joe, Caitlyn, and the other artists have always been friendly with myself and the other customers that I have seen.
I highly recommend Skin City if you are looking for great artists and a clean and friendly environment.

I went In with high hopes for skin city. But soon after I walked in I was very disappointed. The guy working at the front was not very friendly. We thought that was bad but then we met the tattoo artist Caitlyn she was even ruder. She hardly said a word to us and did not seem excited to do our tattoo at all, granted it was a basic tattoo but I expected some kind of small talk or excitement but there was none. It was my worst experience at a shop. And that was visit one. On the second visit we went in for a touch up. We got there a little early and when Caitlyn looked at the tattoo she said it didn’t even need to be touched up but she guesses she’ll touch it up but next time it’ll just grow in. This time the customer service was even worse never again will we go to skin city, and never would I recommend them. The tattoo quality was eh okay but the experience was terrible.

A professional and comfortable environment. I was recommended by a friend to see Caitlynn and I was definitely not disappointed. I plan on being a loyal Skin City client for as long as they’ll have me. The artwork I now have thanks to them is worth every minute of the drive I make to get there.

I’m so happy with my experience here at Skin City. They are professional, and very clean. Steve did my piercing, he’s a very chill guy. I’m going to him for ALL my future piercings. Its four weeks later and my piercings are healing beautifully. I highly recommend him, I’ve been to many shops and this one is incredibly clean and professional. Decent prices too!

Aaaaaaaaaah-​mazing I loved my experience, Caitlynn is super stellar and my adornment looks just as superb today as it did the day I got it. I’ll be back, a few more times
I love her work space, you can tell she’s great, because she proudly displays her past work, a few of which are on both my sisters and my brother in law. So, yes, we love Caitlynn. Go get your next piece done by her, you won’t be sorry!

My first tattoo done by Caitlynn. Thank you so much for your amazing work. I will definitely be coming back!

The shop was very clean and organized. Marcelo did an amazing job helping me get the exact tattoo that I wanted! I will definitely be going back to him soon

I started going here about 2 years ago for piercings and I finally got a tattoo from Catlin and let me tell you, she is super sweet and has such awesome work! I love my piece, it was 5 big stars and some swirls with smaller accent stars and it’s amazing. Great price, and awesome experience! I highly recommend her!

Skin City always does a great job. Thanks again Joe, I am very happy with the work done!

Caitlyn is amazing. Every time I have gone in I am greeted by the staff warmly and not with a standard «yeah.you need something» attitude. Caitlyn has amazing skills and after my second good size piece I am sending my wife in to meet her as well as my niece. Nothing but rave reviews from me!!!

Came here to get my nose pierced. I was greeted my I believe his name was Steve or Steven, He was also the one who did my piercing. He was very nice, and he did a good job. I got to watch him sanitize everything so I knew it was legit. I’m glad I went here! I will be back if I need to get anything else done! :)
Anyone looking for a nose piercing they charge $ 45 basic nose piercing $ 55 with the cleaning solution. :)

Great place! Walked in today, got exactly what I was looking for. Joe gave me my tattoo and was a super cool guy! I will definitely be back for more.

A friend and I walked in today to see if there were any appointments for 2 small tattoos. Joe greeted us and made time for our tattoos. We waited less than 10 minutes before our tattoos were drawn up and we were filling out paperwork. It was all very quick! He was very friendly. He joked and talked with us as we got our tattoos. The lines were nice and clean and we both got exactly what we wanted.
For walking in without appointments we got excellent service and felt welcomed and appreciated.
The shop was very clean and everyone was friendly. We had a great experience and will be going back for all future work.
I would definitely recommend!

In between 2 stars and 5 stars. I got my right sleeve done by Joe there a couple of years ago. I think he is an amazing artist. However things started changing that I wasn’t ok with. I would schedule many appointments with him, show up for them and wait in his parking lot with him nowhere to be found. Every time, I would text asking where he’s at and I’d get an excuse that he thought it was at a different time, or a different day. Finally, after about the 5^th or 6^th time (In a row) I was stood up, I recorded the voice mail sent to me with the scheduled day and time. I would then play that on his voice mail.
I am a big fan of his art, and maybe he has gotten back into being a great business man. However, during my stretch and the time he did my sleeve, it seemed as if his love of tattooing was going away. I was afraid he’d start giving me a mediocre tattoo.
Ultimately, it was one of his own employees who directed me to another artist. I have been with this guy for over 2 years now and am very pleased with his work and his drive to be a great artist.

My wife went in today to get the top to her dermal removed.
I called ahead of time, and they told me it would be free of charge. After the top to the dermal was removed, the piercer informed her it would be ten dollars. Not a lot of money, but after being told it was going to be free, it’s still a bit of a rip off.
The piercer was rude and seemed misinformed. She was also rude to my six year old daughter.
My wife ran out to the car to get a new top to put into the dermal, and the tattoo artist that was working called my wife a «bitch».
Later, the piercer wasn’t going to take our debit card, and threatened to call the police, because my name (her husband) was on the card and she had no other way to pay other than to run to the bank. Of course the reason she only had one form of payment was because she wasn’t expecting to pay.
Don’t bother with these dirtbags. Piercing and tattooing is such a common skill you can go anywhere and get both work done AND customer service.

I have 7 tattoos all from a few different tattoo artists in the surrounding area, and the one person I continue to come back to and refer to anyone looking for a great artist to go to is Caitlynn at skin city. Her work… Beautiful. The variety of colors and crazy good detail, her pieces are just amazing.
A friend referred me, and after seeing all of her tattoos done by Caitlynn, I’m now a faithful client.
Not only is her work great, but she is just super personable and makes you feel absolutely comfortable even when you know you’re going in for hours of pain.
The place is really clean and has really cool décor, so you’re definitely not bored while you’re waiting your turn.
I’ve also been pierced here, for those who are reading based on piercings: I got my second nostril piercing and it was near perfectly painless. Definitely trust worthy on the cleanliness too. I don’t remember the piercers name though, sorry!
5 stars for Caitlynn and skin city.

I’ve been going here for a few years now, and I have always had good experiences. Joe N. Is my favorite artist, but tonight Marcelo did a fairly big piece for me.
He was accommodating and kind, and did a wonderful job. I had a hibiscus and some scroll work done, and it’s absolutely beautiful!
I’ve had two piercings done there as well, and they are super clean for both tattoo and piercing, and incredibly professional yet still very personable.
If you’re a newbie or old hat, you should really go here!
