After researching shops to get pierced at, Danbury Tattoo came up and i saw that it had 5 stars so I read the reviews and I called them. They said the price was 40 dollars for jewelry plus piercing so I picked my two best friends up and we went. Immediately upon walking in, we were very unsure. The jewelry was in an open basket and all thrown in together. The man said my friend could pick up the jewelry which was red flag number two. We asked the price of jewelry and he said 15 bucks, even Claires is more expensive. Red flag 3. But we went along with it anyway. We went to the back room and my one of my friends got the bottom of her belly button done and while he was piercing, he dropped the needle and then pierced her, which was red flag 4. And she had to put the jewelry in herself - what kind of shop lets a customer touch the jewelry and then put it in their own body? Honestly she may as well have pierced it herself; I guess essentially she did. Red flag 5. My other friend got the top of her belly button with no problems, thank god. So then I hopped up and let him clean and mark my ear. I was getting my second lobe piercing and I already had my nose done which didnt hurt hardly at all so I thought itd be a breeze. Nope. By far the worst piercing Ive ever endured. It was a bloody and painful mess and it took him so long to pierce it. And after he was done he told us to clean it with rubbing alcohol and hand soap. Red flag 6. And a few weeks later one of the people I went with, who has a bunch of piercings and knows how to take care of them, told me her belly button got really infected from the jewelry. And then my ear started bleeding again and was painful and I got a keloid even after it was healed. I dont know if I will be returning, 2/3 of us got infections. Not a good statistic. Id rather drive 2 and a half hours to Black Diamond Piercing where they run like a doctors office and everything is sterile. I would not reccomend this establishment to anybody.

I was looking for a local piercing shop to buy new lip studs from. I read the amazing reviews for Danbury Tattoo & Piercing, and thought theyd be a great place to buy from. I have a severe nickel allergy, so my needs are a tiny bit unusual and I need a good shop to buy from. I went in, and asked to view their 16g labret studs. I specified that I had a nickel allergy, and it needed to be nickel free. The employee proceeded to tell me that all of their rings and studs were "surgical stainless steel" and that they were all totally nickel free. I am incredibly disappointed in this blatant lack of knowledge [and either accidental or intentional lie] in what I assumed was a great shop. Literally ALL stainless steel of any kind contains nickel- up to a pretty high percentage. Its important for a shop to know what materials theyre putting into their clients bodies. If I had been less knowledgeable, I would have ended up paying for items that would have made me sick. I expect good knowledge and accurate information, and apparently Danbury Tattoo & Piercing doesnt provide that. Im super disappointed. Also: In another review I saw that someone apparently gave a bad review after mistakenly going to a different shop, and I want to explicitly say that I went to the right place, as I was careful about it.

I have had 2 tattoo experiences with Danbury Tattoo and both were great I had a tattoo done with MikeyVee in there location that was located on Germantown road and I had a cover up tattoo done by E.T. in there Mill Plain location both places were not only clean and welcoming but both artist did an amazing job and were EXTREMELY detailed and thorough. They took there time and explained the entire process to me and made sure I had the proper at home supplies for caring for my new tattoo. The entire staff was extremely friendly and welcoming in both locations. The shops were not only clean but they also opened every needle and razor being used on me in front of me and made sure my skin was thoroughly clean before and after the process.they made sure every time I had proper I.D. on me and to me this is important and shows a lot about how they run there shops. I highly recommend Danbury Tattoo to everyone I know that wants a tattoo or piercing . I can not say enough about this place and honestly have had nothing but GREAT experiences here. Clean, professional,thorough and they also made me feel comfortable. They know there stuff GREAT PLACE !!!! Happy with both of my tattoos and how they healed wouldnt go anywhere else .

Over the last year I have gotten 3 very large tattoos (40+hours) done at Danbury Tattoo. I have always walked out of the shop blown away at the quality of work done by Eric. His ability to take whats in my head, draw it out and then tattoo it is grade A stuff. I was also very impressed with his attention to small details and his suggested improvements to help my tattoos look there best. With me specifically, he suggested slight tweaks to the tattoos orientation and placement on my arm and back which I am very happy with. He was also very good at helping me pick out secondary colors that helped make everything pop. Additionally, the shop has always provided me with top notch customer service during the entire tattoo process; from conceptional design through healing, and I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in getting some work done.

I had a very pleasant experience here today! I just moved into the area and me and my mom were looking for a place for me to start adding piercings to my ear. When we got in here, my mom loved the home-y aspect and I loved how everything was explained throughout the process. I got my second lobes pierced on both sides and my piercer (I dont know what her name is, but her hair was blue on the bottom and she was really nice!) showed me the jewelry and the needles in sterilized packaging and showed me her throwing away the needles after they were done. I was in and out in less than 20 minutes, and I will definitely be coming back to continue my ear project and probably tattoos once Im older. Thank you guys!

I had an experience at Danbury Tattoo that caused me concern for a bit, but I must say that the owners behind Danbury Tattoo are as good as it gets. They went above and beyond with concern for me and I cant say enough about that kind of professionalism and care for their customers. I am very impressed with what they did for me and I will be back and recommend Danbury Tattoo to anyone looking to get inked. Thank you Eric for your kindness and best of luck to you and your crew and thank you for all the local sponsorship as well. I hope people will understand how important it is to do business with reputable businesses like you.

Danbury Tattoo is the best! I have and multiple tattoos from the artists there and every one has come out awesome. The artists are friendly, knowledgeable, and talented. They want your tattoo to look great because they take pride in their work. The shop is clean, welcoming, and smoke free. Every time Ive had work done the tattoo stations were clean and everything was opened in front of me to show it was new. This has become the only shop I go to and I highly recommend it.
