My friend and i went for piercings, and after quite a bit of searching, we settled on SkinLab, which was an awful mistake. From the atmosphere of the place to the way its managed, everything appears to be unorganized, and for a tattoo/piercing joint, unsanitary. All of this was immediately clear when we got there, but we decided to go through with it, anyway. But things only went downhill from there. The piercer seemed unsettled, to the point he had difficulty setting one of my friends piercings--it took nearly a good ten minutes for that piercing alone. To make things worse, he got up and left halfway through, so he could go give somebody a ride...not exactly professional. Even after we were finished, things felt off. The cleaning advice we were given seems completely inaccurate, and this morning, one of my friends piercings already looked infected. Needless to say, we dont plan on going back.

I went to this shop to get a piercing reopened on the recommendation of a friend. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly, and above all talented. R___, the owner and piercer, worked with me on pricing, and I ended up getting a better deal then any other shop I got quoted at. The environment is a bit intimidating, having graffiti-style air brushed murals in every private room (the oddest being clown themed (Not-ICP)), but the shop policies on sterilization, use of top-end equipment, and super talented staff more then make up for it. I have been looking for a shop to do my first tat in a couple months, and these guys have my business for as long as I live in Arizona!!

Went to get filler done for a tattoo on my face. Guy rushed me, Im pretty sure he was also an apprentice as he was also very unprofessional. had the machine set up before he even drew it or gave me a price. He drew it up and I was unsure of it, so he kept saying "the quicker you sit down the quicker we can get it done", kept trying to stop me from changing my mind on it. I paid $80 for barely anything, I couldve just done it myself with my machine in the mirror at my house. Then he hit on my friend and made her extremely uncomfortable. I definitely wont be going back. Ill make sure nobody I know, goes there.

iANTI WHITE ANTI GERMAN TATTOO PARLOR. I have dozens of Eagle tattos from different cultures and artists. I called ahead of time to get a German Eagle to add to my motiff. This Eagle had a very small swazi in it. (The Sawzi is an Ancient symbol going back thousands of years). Upon arrival manager denied service to over the image. He was not willing to budge. This is proof of anti German bigotry and discrimination and anti free speech. If I wanted a Star of David or a Christian symbol I would not have been a censored this way. I dont recommend this parlor.

Dont let the outside fool you- This place is quiet,clean and well kept! The employees were VERY friendly and knowledgeable. I was in and out in about 20 minutes as there were a few ladies before me. My piercer (Ronny) wiped down my room, washed and gloved his hands and asked me how and where exactly I wanted my piercing. I was very nervous (I hate needles) but he made me comfortable and it was REALLY not that bad. He was done in a second with no lingering pain and I will certainly be back for another once this one has healed a bit more :) Highly recommended!

Dont go to this place. I had my daith pierced and the guy ronny screwed it up. I had no issues with it healing but he pierced it so superficially that I am going to have to have it repierced after i let this hole heal. Its been 2month since i got it and and the skin is so thin that you can see the metal of the hoop through the outer part. I went to another piercer to see of that is normal and they said no not at all that is extremely poorly done. $60 and months of healing totally wasted.

Ronny is the best piercer in the whole state of Arizona! Ive been to him twice to get my nose done and my industrial redone and he was nothing shy of perfection! It was little to no pain at all and he does every job with safety and cleanliness first always. I tell my coworkers, family and anyone I can about Skinlab! This will be the one and only place I get a piercing at. Everything is clean, quiet and Ronny is very informative and just a delight! Everyone needs to go to him.

Absolutely loved the work that I got done. Rose was my tattoo artist and she was very friendly and inviting. She made sure I was comfortable and was able to continue. Great customer service and very clean and organized. I honestly couldnt be more happy with my tattoo. It was my very first tattoo and Ill definitely come back for my second! ❤️ Not sure how to add pictures but if I knew how to I would.

This weekend I took my daughter to get her 1st tattoo for her Birthday on Saturday night. We checked @ for our options & I was surprised to find the Skin lab tattoo was 1 of 2 locations in the Southern Tempe area that were open later than 6 or 8 p.m. Skin Lab Tattoo stay open till midnight on the weekend, We were pleased with our choice.

Great Place ! In December I got my first two piercings (belly&tongue) from here they were great people very clean which made me really happy. My piercings have not had any problems and they healed very well thanks to the great tips they gave me while i was there. I will be back soon to get my nose pierced ! Thanks Skin Lab ( :

I got my nose pierced here and I am more than pleased with the results. I was very nervous because it was my first piercing that wasnt on my ears, but the environment was very sanitary and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. The piercer, Ronny, did an amazing job and I will definitely come back again.

Horrible place. my friend went in and got a tattoo done . and it looks nothing like the picture . it looks like a cross between and pissed off pop tart and the kool aid man . it may be small but it deff left a hug impression on her and myself . please get better artist .

most amazing place ive been to. much better than HTC for sure. Ronny is an amazing piercer and takes his time to make sure that the piercing is okay instead of rushing. I recently got my nose pierced and im more than happy with my results!!!!! Thank you Ronny!

Everyone there was kind and comforting and everything went well while piercing my nipples. Its now been 2 months and one is perfect. Unfortunately the other one is actually right below the nipple rather than right behind it. So that is a little frustrating.

Saw me shortly after I walked in. No wait. Was in and out within 20 minutes! (which is great cause I was on my lunch) But Ronny was the one who pierced me! Definitely will be back for more piercings and maybe tattoos in the future!!

This place is great! I met with Ronny and Anthony, and they were really great to me. Anthony did excellent work on my tattoo. Ronny got me some new body jewelry and I couldnt be happier! Thanks, guys!
