I have had 7 tattoos done here!! All 7 have been done by Hot Rod. My daughter has had 4 done by Hot Rod!! I absolutely love this man and I think he is the best artist around. I have seen him fix tattoos that others have screwed up and he has made them look 100% better.!! I dont know what people expect when they walk into a tattoo shop, but it isnt going to be a 4 star restaurant. He is down to earth and is a not BS guy. Simply put, he is real!! If you cant handle real then you are right, it isnt the place for you! I love the place and I love Hot Rod!! I will go back for any tattoo, anytime!!!

The guy was very rude. All I wanted was my nose to be pierced, he did it quickly i thought and next thing you know, its infected Ive had all my piercings done at Heroic Ink and I have never had an infected piercing but the day I was in ames I found out they arent open on mondays anymore so I go there and I wish I would have waited. I recommend Heroic ink to anyone please dont go to the Asylum

I have been there three times to get piercings. My fiancee, Kaleb, is best friends with the guy Chuck who is AMAZING. I dont understand what you guys are complaing about. All three of my piercings (monroe, lip, and navel) are all exactly what I wanted. They greeted me, chatted me up while piercing and I even hung around after to talk. They are great guys and completely hilarious! Big win,

The Asylum is cheap compared to other places, piercings are almost half price compared to others. Tattoos are one of those, "You get what you pay for" things. Many of my friends have ink from here, but I would go someplace else. When I got my nipples pierced, the chick didnt even say anything and made it really uncomfortable while I waited. Heroic Ink is where its at people!

Just got my first piercing today, and I could not have been more satisfied. Immediately helped, great prices, and a great ambiance. Being rather ambitious, I went for an industrial piercing, which has an overwhelming reputation for pain. To my surprise everything went smoothly and with minimal pain. I will surely go back for more!

I walked in, and I felt unwelcome and stared at. The waiting area is a pathetic two couches on the other side of the room and the girl at the desk was rude and didnt know anything about the appointments for the day. It took her 10 minutes to tell me the piercist was doing a tattoo until 7pm. Go to Lasting Impressions instead.

Absolutely terrible job. He couldnt sketch my design so he changed it on my body and did a terrible job. My fox looks like a weasle and the lines are wobbly and just terrible. The guy Kyle smoked weed to calm down before he started. My first and last experience with them.

My tattoo was porly done, was told that I would get to have it finished for no charge, event back for my second appointment and still had to wait over an hour for someone ahead of me. I had an appointment. Now Im going to Heroic ink instead see if they can fix this mess.

The WORST experience I have ever had. The women will make you feel like a child for asking questions to make a very informed adult decision. If you want to be shamed about your choice in ink and placement maybe consider here. I would give 0 stars if I could. STAY AWAY

Went in today, got a touch up done by dan. He was very nice and helpful with sketching up a tattoo afterwards. even gave me a deal on my touch up since it was so small (birdcage on my ring finger) also did a great job fixing mistakes left by original tattoo artist.

Berry was very unprofessional. When I didnt like his design, he threw a temper tantrum. When he finally, consented to fixing a tattoo that I hated, he was very rough and may have bruised behind my ear. All this from what turned out to be a mediocre artist. At best.

I get my ink done at the asylum by Berry. I love it. Ever where I go I honestly get stared at and complimented for my sleeve hes been doing. He keeps it real and gives you his ideas as well. BERRY at the asylum is where its at. Dan and HOT-ROD are awesome too.

The people were very nice! I had my tattoo done by Berry. Even though we dont have the same preferences in military branches. Lol. He did an awesome job and looking forward to contacting him for my next one when Im back home.

I have received two bad ass tattoos from Hot Rod. He helped me out with the design and they both turned out awesome. Hes a great artist and very good at giving you ideas and suggestions for your tattoo.

My friend and I walked in and they were able to get both of us right in. Our tattoos looked just like the pictures we gave them. I had Kyle and he was great! I very much enjoyed my experience.

Kyle is the coolest tattoo artist I have ever received work from. He is extremely friendly, funny, and talented. Now I only go to him
