Got a nostril piercing done here. The guy was good with the needle, Ill give him that. However, when I went to change out the annoying "corkscrew" stud that the end of which kept jutting out of my nose w a simple ring, that same guy sold me a lame little semi ring because their jewelry selection is pretty lame. This ring was NOT what I wanted, cost me $10.00, and the guy was too lazy to help me with it citing his, fat fingers, that made him helping me, so he claimed, impossible. The additional ATM fee he told me I wouldnt be charged screwed up my checking account for a week. To top it off, he charged me $10.00 for this piece of junk gold painted ring that fell out numerous times just as he assured me it would not. We had a good laugh about this crappy experience over at ETERNAL PIERCING in Livonia as the fine professionals there helped me make an educated choice from a large selection of fine QUALITY jewlry that the guy there happily fitted me with. Never again will I go anywhere else. Just go to Eternal for your piercings.

This place is cool. Chill, awesome environment. Lots of comic and horror movie related artwork and action figures all over, and they usually have something cool playing on the TV (last time my friend and I went, Chucky was on). Ive been to Empire twice so far, and have had tattoos and piercings from John with great luck. Both he and Larry are awesome, easy-going guys and know what theyre doing. Its a small but clean and professional place. They take walk-ins and typically do $13 tattoo specials on Friday the 13th. My stuff has all healed (and is healing) extremely well. I recommend coming here for tattoos and/or piercings. Personally, Ive gotten John each time, and so have two of my close friends. Steady hand, easy pressure.

Id give it a 10 if I could! Honestly, the best experience Ive had at a tattoo parlor! They were so chill and laid back, and when Larry was drawing my tattoo up before hand, he came and asked me numerous questions to make sure he got the drawing JUST right. And let me tell you, the ink I now have on my body is the absolute best out of them all. It was the worstt 3 hours of pain in my life, but well worth every single minute!!! I love it and I will not be going anywhere else for future ink!! Larry Shelby is my go to guy from now on!

Walked in on a Sunday with a sketch drawn. I got a very reasonable price instantly as well as how long it would take. 45 minutes later paperwork, prep and ink I had my first tattoo. Awesome line work/replication. The quality of the tattoo is very good. Comfortable atmosphere that is very clean and importantly, well lit. Id recommend consulting them when looking for a talented crew with professional tools and a clean parlor for a reasonable price.

Went in for my first tattoo. Cross on my chest. Painful area but a basic cheap cross. First issue is the cross was off center. I wanted it right down the middle of heart.second, I paid $80 for it. For a cheap basic cross, other shops, artist, and even my tattoo artist friend who lives in another state said $40 max for it after I got it done. Third, the tattoo wasnt done enough to look good after it healed.

My experience here was nothing but phenomenal. Everything from the design of the shop to the professionalism of the employees, I was very surprised having very bad experiences with other shops, this was a change! My tattoo came out great, Larry Shelby was the artist who I scheduled with and I now have a new favorite artist. Im very pleased with my experience here.

Best tattoo shop in Michigan!! These guys do great work at an affordable cost and go out of their way to make sure the customer is happy and the tattoo looks the way they wanted. The main artist, Larry is the man and one of the best artist I have ever seen. They also have a large selection of jewelry thats cheaper to buy than at the mall.

I have had tattoos by a few different artists but now I wont go anywhere else. Larry has done ten of my tattoos and they are amazing. He has an eye for detail and cares about what his clients want. He makes sure that the design and detail are exactly what as desired. The prices are also very reasonable. I highly recommend this shop.

I absolutely love this place. I got two ear piercings by John and he did a fantastic job, you can tell he take pride in his work and John knows what he is doing. I felt comfortable and at ease. I trust his professionalism. If you want the best go to Empire Tattoo Studio these guys know their stuff. The best in Michigan. Thanks John

My experience at Empire Tattoo was amazing. I was really impressed with the shop (amazing decor and extremely clean) and the workers. They are all very nice and professional. Definitely the best shop around. Cant wait to go back for my next piece! If you want the best, this is the ONLY place to go!!!

Ive had a cover up done over the top of a hosed Tattoo. They came up with a great design, and matched the old tattoo up line work and all. Great cover up and great clean professional staff and facilities.

Good people, good art. Every time I go there with some abstract idea, Larry or John come up with exactly what I pictured, and I end up with just what I wanted. Cant go wrong here.

Great shop. I get all my work done here. The artists have many years or combined experience and the ownership is very professional. They will take care of you.

It was Friday the 13th and the wait time was long. I had patience and so did the staff. Very professional and courteous. I will be returning A+++++++++

I got my first tattoo on Friday the 13th here, I love it and they were more than happy to retouch it up for a cheap price.
