Sean worked on a back piece for me which took a little over 25 hours. The sessions were spread from November to April of the next year. This was my first tattoo and Sean answered every question I had about the process along the way, easing any anxiety I had - which is very reasonable considering the cost and permanent nature of the process. The pricing is great compared to other artists in the region and Sean worked with me throughout to work around my busy schedule as a graduate student. His facility is clean, in the process of being renovated, and he uses top quality tools to perform his job. Sean also worked with me to help develop the idea for my tattoo. I had some rough images and ideas of what I wanted and Sean took the time to flush out these ideas in a way that made sense to me, always making rough sketches to ensure there was no miscommunication between us. Even after the initial consultation, each time I had a session we would review the overall concept and also improvise along the way as the piece developed. Overall this was a fantastic experience as my first tattoo and I am very happy with how it turned out. Thanks Sean for the awesome work of art!

My best friend and I went here together to get our first tattoos. My friend got two and I got one. Sean was patient and kind to us and we got along wonderfully. He gave us a substantial discount, which we were very appreciative of. He told us each step of the process and we watched him sterilize. His quality of work is fantastic and he and his wife Carrie operate a very clean and safe business. When my friends foot faded a bit, even though foot touch ups are typically not done, Sean did it for free. I would recommend this place to all of my friends and my future tattoos will only be done by Sean!

I wouldnt go anywhere but Dragonsbane for a tattoo or piercing in the Lafayette area. Why? Because the quality of the work is excellent, the owners are friendly, informative, patient & more than competent... and the shop is clean, safe and comfortable. Both Sean and Carrie are down to earth people who have never displayed the all-too-common tattoo elitist attitude. No pretentiousness here. Just great, creative ink and expertly wielded piercing needles.

Ive been coming to the studio for a couple years now. Sean and Carrie are always welcoming and make you feel like family. The work is high quality and worth every penny. Ive got upwards of 13 tattoos from Sean and have always had a great experience. I come in as a customer but left with a great friend. I cannot say enough about the excellent treatment by Sean and his wife. I get asked about my art on a regular basis and will always recommend Sean.

My brother passed away last year and my mom and sisters wanted tattoos in remembrance... Sean gave us a great group discount and very graciously stayed late. While we were there We decided we wanted piercings as well... Carrie was great! They are both compassionate and passionate with their art and customers! Sean is very upfront about his services and payments, touch-ups, etc... I have gotten another Tattoo and plan on others!!! Thank You Sean!

Horrible customer service!!! The lady is nice, but Sean is awful! He had 2 weeks to draw my tattoo and never got back to me! I emailed him only once and called 2 DAYS before I was due for the tattoo with no word just to hear him say "Tell her to leave me alone. Itll be done when its done! Im busy!" Taking my business elsewhere, even if it costs more, its worth it not to put up with that drama.

Just got a triple in my lower lip. She took her time and made it perfect. Her prices are amazing for her work. I have some more ideas, and plan to come back soon. I should have come to them sooner, they have multiple payment options and a clean/family friendly shop. This shop is at the top of my list for piercing. I wanted to hug her after it was all done!

I got my septum pierced here about a week and a half a go with Carrie! She pierced me so quickly and i the perfect spot. I havent had any swelling or any issues besides being a little tender but thats with any piercing :). I truly couldnt be more happy with my piercing and with my experience with Carrie 10 out of 10.

Got my cartilage pierced here, cleaned it all the time still wasnt healing and was always swollen. After 6 months I decided to change the jewelry in hopes it would help, it did and no more swelling. Same thing happened when my boyfriend got his ears pierced here.

Sean did bio-mechanical half sleeve around my iron cross and tribal and pretty much free handed the whole thing. I was amazed with Seans work. Very talented! Very professional and extremely sanitary! I will def be going back for my next piece!

I went there to get my helix piercing done. She was very amazing and she goes through what you need to do with your piercing very well. You have so many choices when you go there and the service is amazing!

I have gotten a few piercings there. My nose and my trages. The woman was super professional and kind. She explained everything and the process was very fast and clean.

Sean did an awesome job at covering up a tattoo on my foot and was very patient with me even though I was extremely restless and tense.
