The place is called New Skool Tattoos but this is a piercing review. I wasn’t even going to write this review but I felt compelled to let people know of my particular experience after about a year later. I went in to get my septum pierced, and the piercer was friendly and warned me that it might not be straight because it’s a hard piercing (beforehand). However during the piercing there wasn’t much talking and it was rather fast. The piercing was very painful and make a loud pop noise. It was somewhat straight, but I got up and saw the ring was so low it basically touched my upper lip, it also rested flat against my philtrum. He remarked that it was just the ring and I could change it later and at least it was straight. I was wrongly trusting and listened to him that it was indeed a good placement. I should have done more research on my own. I came to find out septum piercings are supposed to go through the sweet spot which is the thin flap of skin between the hard cartilages in your nose. My septum was pierced straight through the thick cartilage in my lower nose. This caused more pain, longer healing time, inability to flip up inside my nose (also piercing was visible from the side of my nose), if I wanted to stretch my septum it would have ripped right through the bottom of my nose, and the piercing looked terrible resting against my lip and it moved of course whenever I talked. I went back and got it removed and told him it was too low, and I was told it was just my nose, and that I had to tell him if I had wanted it higher up (unbelievable, telling the piercer how to properly place a piercing?) I wasn’t even given a tissue on my way out as my nose started to bleed. Now I can’t speak for this place as a tattoo shop, they might be great for that. But if you want a piercing, especially a septum piercing I highly suggest going somewhere else where the piercer is more skilled about placement. I went here because I live in flat rock and it was the closest shop, and he gave me the speech about he’s been doing piercings for x amount of years on the phone so I trusted his judgment of where placement should be without question, when I should have known beforehand septum’s go in the sweet spot not through hard nose cartilages. I felt like I had to warn people especially since over a year later and after lots of research and looking at different shops I had my septum re-pierced at Pangea piercing in ann arbor. It was more expensive, but it was a totally different experience. I was talked through the whole procedure, he (Kenny) marked my nose, actually took time to feel around for my sweet spot, he didn’t use hard clamps and the actual piercing was completely painless with no “pop” noise, and afterwards there was no pain either. When I had my septum done at New Skool tattoo my whole front set of teeth hurt and I could barely talk. I have been unable to find my original picture showing the first time I got my septum done at New Skool Tattoos but if I do I will come back and upload my new piercing and my piercing from New Skool Tattoos to show the huge difference. My new septum piercing is high up, doesn’t even touch anywhere near my top lip or mouth area at all, and is perfectly centered. I’ve talked to quite a few other piercers about my experience at New skool tattoos and it was unanimous that it was pierced incorrectly in the wrong spot.

First, let me say that I spent months looking for a shop with a group of artists I trusted to start and finish an entire sleeve for me. I found that place and more. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The artist I chose was Phil. This guy is brilliant. His work is second to none. Fair prices and he has dozens of awards for his work. He is extremely personable and easy to talk/joke with during the entire session. I cannot wait to have more work done and I highly suggest anyone looking for high caliber work to check this place out. Also, remember kiddies, always tip your artist.

I just got my first tattoo there this past Friday night. The staff was very friendly and informative, the artist (Phil) was amazing, both in the work done, and in conversing with me. Took me as a late walk-in with no hassle whatsoever. Place was very clean, very professional, and very comfortable. I would recommend anyone looking for work should go here, and if I get another one, I definitely will myself. I have received so many compliments on the piece, but especially on the colors. It was a fantastic job. If I could give a 6th star on this review, I gladly would. Brian E. Hart

I went in on a spur of the moment, drew out what I wanted, the artist added some approved "umph" design to it and I loved it. He talks to you while doing the tattoo and actually pays attention to how you feel while he draws on you. Had a few laughs and Ill be sure to come back soon! Like them. A lot!

Very professional and friendly staff. My wife and I have only been tattooed by Phil but would definitely trust the other artists. I love the work Phil does. I will be planning another visit soon.

Friendly but I got 3 words written on my arm and Ive never seen lines so uneven and different proportions for a tattoo. Go here for mediocre work.
