I went in for advice and a jewelry downsizing. First dude squeezed the crap out of my lip with way too much pressure trying to get the ball off. He finally gets it off with pliers which were way more comfortable than his hands. I heard him say something about a taper, then he proceeds to ram a big rod in my 16 gauge hole that is only 3 months old-which I repeated to him 3 times before this point. That shot even more immense pain in my lip seeing as he just ripped my piercing. He finally realized that its not going to work so I told him to put the old one back in. He pulls out what he rammed in there and I immediately feel blood running down my face. He then took about 5 more minutes trying to get the ball back on my old piece of jewelry all the while I noticed his hands are shaking as if he has Parkinsons disease. Dont you need a steady hand to be a piercer anyway??? Plus Im sure him shoving that taper or whatever in my piercing is going to set me back to start the healing process all over if it doesnt just reject all together or get infected from all the trauma. Im still over here bleeding and in pain with a swollen lip. Plus after he got the ball back on he had the nerve to say "no charge".

Do not go here. Me and my friends got our first tattoos here, which by the way were very small simple tattoos, and it was a horrible experience. First off they didnt even shave the spot they were going to tattoo nor did they wrap our tattoos before we left. They did not give us any directions to go by for the healing process. The artist free handed an outline around my friends tattoo without asking if she wanted it, he didnt even finish the whole outline and let her leave like that. He tried to say it would fade, which we know now it wont so she has to redo her tattoo completely. He screwed up on mine by marking outside of the tattoo I was supposed to get and the lines are scribbly. And after a couple days parts of my tattoo faded. Was not at all worth the money and when looking for advice I have been told my multiple tattoo shops that they have seen many of flesh tones customers come asking for a redo or fix on theirs because of how bad it turned out. Many people say they dont know how this shop is still running and I completely agree. Dont waste your money here because its likely youll just have to pay to get it fixed somewhere else.

I went with my girlfriend so she could get a tattoo done by Cheezy Chili. It wasnt too busy and he was able to work us into his schedule. He kept a conversation going throughout the tattoo, which I like from a tattoo artist. He engaged both me and my girlfriend which I thought was very respectful. Cheezy talked with her and made sure that the design was 100% what she wanted before he started, and listened to all of the recommendations she gave him. The tattoo turned out great and she thoroughly enjoys it. It is healing normally, and will be a great finished piece. I would definitely go back to this place.

Stay away. They have an apprentice Kayla that they let schedule an appointment and tattoo by herself with no one there to over see. My niece went and her tattoo is horrible. Every line is blown out and not smooth. If she used an outline then she cant follow it. I have pics to prove it is sad. Dont trust a man who is sleeping with his apprentice.

Got a tattoo from fleshtones in wood river, they were very efficient in a laid back atmosphere. The artists name was Rianna and she seemed very knowledgeable in her craft. Overall was a very good experience and the work I got done turned out very nice.

Treated great and not gouged for a Simple job. I will definitely be back. Chris treated us like he wanted us there even though he was swamped.

I wouldnt get anything done here, especially by Kitten. It cant be sanitary to tattoo anyone with as many STDs as she has.

James Lowery

Excellent tattoo work and cover-ups. I highly recommend Wil Berkley - great design and real work of art.
