Did an on the spot ying-yang tramp stamp in 2009 while my fathers health in Michigan was failing. My first trip to SF after wanting to go since a teenager, I was 58 at the time. Been sober and clean since 1983, and needed to do SOMETHING to memorialize my trip to the Mecca. Seeing the dude at the corner of Haight and Ashbury smoking a doobie and joining in was out of the question, but while passing this shop it hit me. We had just seen people doing Tai Chi in the park and I had also been learning the form, so the symbol was speaking to me. Staff was incredible about fitting me in, and price was more than fair. Clean place, and great surroundings. Incredible flash book of some great ink art. Would seriously go back when in town again...PS..got back to Michigan and my father died 5 days later. The Ying-yang energy got me through. Thanks folks for being there.

I thought he was nice but when I did not like his third touch up pen demo on my 24 yr old ankle butterfly I needed redone he said "this was supposed to be a quick tattoo" he also touched my upper thigh twice with his hand and I feel that all businesses should be professional so did not like that. A tattoo is forever so when I felt rushed I apologized and left he said "what a waste of time" I was there 10 maybe 15 mins max. It was that guys fault I did not like the first pen marks because he kept drawing a new butterfly that did not cover the old one. If u want to be sexually harassed and treated like dirt tattoo here. Skanky and rude.

This shop is awesome. I love the combination of store/tattoo shop. My gf and I went in knowing exactly what we wanted. The guys were really cool about making sure we got what we were looking for. Pricing seems pretty standard and since we both got 2 tattoos each they cut us a slight deal. Everyone was really professional and the shop is clean. My big tattoo took a couple hours but I felt very comfortable sitting while it was done. They know how to make a customer happy. I also got my second nose piercing there and the piercer, Wes, was really cool. He helped me calm my nerves and did a great job.

last month, nef pierced my lip and today i went back to get a wrist tattoo. i didnt have a preference as to did it bc i have never met any of them but tommy was available! i am sooo glad that he did it. it looks awesome and it didnt hurt that bad. he was pretty quick. nef even recognized me from the last time i had come in which is pretty weird bc im pretty normal looking lol. anyway, definiitely come by here if you want to get to know some awesome people and get an awesome tat or piercing. they are reasonable on pricing but not so low you think they are bad. 5+ stars!

By far the best tattoo shop Ive been to, all around. Im from Jacksonville, Fl, here visiting, when I randomly decided to get a second piercing for my nose. We walked in and the staff was super nice and helped me a lot with my nerves. The pricing was great (the reason we chose this place). Our piercer Wes was super calming and really nice, he made the whole process a bit less intimidating. And he pierced so fast, I barely felt it. And its perfect! Im so happy with my new piercing. Thank you guys (: see you next time Im in SF!!

My experience was awesome here. A gentleman by the name of Wes pierced my nose and he made me feel extremely relaxed. He also made us laugh a lot. The nice young woman that greeted us at the register and explained the process was very nice and helpful. I do not know here name but she has green hair. I will totally go back here and get something else done. Thank you so much for making my experience so comfortable & fun. One that I will never forget!!! D.Kelley, Orlando, FL

Got my first cartilage piercing here a while back. Im not a big fan of needles so I was nervous. The man who pierced my ear was super friendly and helped me choose the exact spot I wanted. He made a few jokes and helped me calm down. They went over aftercare and my piercing turned out perfect. The best part is the price. Its reasonable and each day of the week they have a piercing special where a certain piercing costs less. This is now my go to place!

My girlfriend and I went in as walk-ins yesterday and we couldnt be more satisfied! Our artists were Nick and Machy. Nick had great customer service, was extremely talented, and really knew his stuff. Machy was great at keeping a relaxing atmosphere and drew up an awesome little design for me. The store itself is very clean and all employees are professional. Definitely would go back again.

I decided to pop in and inquire about the cost of two tattoo ideas I had. I end up leaving 45mins later with two new tattoos that I truly love. Alex is very precise and even though he gave me a hard time about one of my design choices he was able to recreate the look and did an excellent job of creating fine dark lines.I definitely plan on going back for more!

The people that work here are great and are willing to answer questions to make you feel at ease about your new piercing or tattoo. I got my tongue pierced here when they had a special for it on Saturday and it was just $35! It was a great deal and the piercer was very professional and made sure I understood how to clean and care for my piercing.

Got my nostril pierced here back in December by Wes! He was super sweet and patient. My friend had huge nerves, but he talked her through it and pierced both of our noses! I was a walk-in on a Monday night, so there was a promotional price and they were still super quick with us! So in love with my piercing all these months later, thanks Wes

Great relaxed atmosphere. I went in with the idea for a tattoo and Nicholas the tattoo artist ran with it and drew up a sketch of something I loved. Ducked out for an ice-cream to think about it, then went back and got it. I love it. This is my second tattoo and I found this one much more relaxing and the staff were very friendly.

As someone who gets faint at needles I was nervous about getting my lip pierced. The piercer was very reassuring and calmed me as well as anyone could, and the studio had a relaxed atmosphere. The procedure itself was quick and I got to lie down afterwards with a glass of water until I felt good to go. The piercing looks great.

My experience at Haight Ashbury Tattoo and Piercing was great. I made an appointment 5 days in advance. Walked in and discussed with my artist. It took him about 20 minutes to draw up my tattoo (keep in mind it was all script) and 40 minutes to tatt me up. Overall, a great experience - short and sweet.

My favorite place to get a piercing, they are so nice here. I got my ears pieced here a couple of times and the guy that helped me were so cool and I didnt even feel a thing when they did my piercings. They are super clean and fast with the service. Time for a new piercing soon. :)
