I looked around at a lot of different shops, read reviews, and scared myself to pieces watching nose piercings on YouTube. Then, I found No Name Tattoo and started reading reviews. I read a few that highly recommended Chino, so I figured Id call and ask my three good questions and my 10,000 ridiculous ones. I got Ken, the owner of the shop, and he put me at ease immediately. He had good answers for all 10,003 questions (including if Chino was working today). So, I decided to go find the shop and because Im a dufus about directions, Ken even offered to stand outside his shop and flag me down if need be. WHO DOES THAT? He went the extra ten miles with his customer service. The shop was easy to find, extremely clean, and for those of you offended by smoke smell- you will be happy to know there is none of that at this shop. Fresh as a daisy. First question Ken asked was if I was still nervous, and my answer of course was, YUP. But I thought it was extremely nice to ask and weirdly enough, it made me a lot less nervous. I filled out the paperwork and got to talk with both Ken and Chino who are extremely easy to talk with, fascinating and funny. By the time I was sitting in the chair, I was relaxed. I went with the hoop instead of a stud because thats my thing. Chino swabbed my nose, asked my name and *poof* pierced my nose. WHAT? THAT was what I was stressing about? Ken was totally right- dont watch the YouTube videos. Dont scare yourself like that. I highly recommend Chino and No Name Tattoos if youre looking to get a piercing. The price was fantastic, the guys were fantastic (oh, and I met Roxy at the end- shes a doll!) and the place was clean. Best of all, the piercing was just a pinch- 99% pain free. Thanks again Ken and Chino! You guys rock!

I have been to No Name Tattoo four times. The first was 4 years ago to get my belly button pierced. I had Bryan, and since he is no longer there, my view on him doesnt matter. However, the piercing was quick, clean, and very straight. The second was a year ago. I got my tragus and cartilage pierced. My artist was Chino, and he was incredibly patient with me, as I have a fear of needles. The piercings were quick, extremely clean, and very well placed. The third was about 6 months ago. I got my lobes double and triple pierced. My artist was Chino again. As before, the piercings were fast, very clean, and well placed. I manned up some, but he was very patient with me when I flinched away a time or two. The fourth was 7/2/2013. I got my nose pierced. History repeating itself...Chino was fast, incredibly clean, and perfectly placed...and this time there was no flinching :) I will not get a piercing from anyone other than Chino. I absolutely love No Name Tattoo. Their level of cleanliness is extremely important to me. I love that they take any tools out of the packaging in front of you. Between Chino and the man at the front desk (Im sorry I dont know your name), the environment is lovely. They do a wonderful job of making you feel comfortable, and that they value you as a customer. Thank you guys <3

The experience I had at NoName Tattoo was completely positive. From the moment I called to inquire about a tattoo to the time I left the studio with it, there was nothing I wouldve changed about it, Chino was my artist and was kind, understanding and very professional. My situation was delicate, as I had just lost my 14yr old daughter, whom was the light of my life, under very tragic circumstances. Chino designed a pretty bizarre tattoo at my request that would include a sandcrab playing a trombone. never once did he make my idea seem silly, he knew it meant alot to me. it was a very emotional day for me and i was worried id end up crying while he worked on my forearm, but i actually was able to close my eyes and listen to the wonderful music they played for me and i found myself smiling more than once.it was the first real moments of peace ive had in the last 4 months.i want him to know that. and the tattoo is so beautiful, i get several compliments on it daily. the shop was sparkling clean and all the policies shown to me were very safety orientated. everyday now i look at my forearm and i feel peace.it never bled, or leaked ink, just healed really well. its been 2 weeks now, its just a little itchy.i enjoyed chino very much & would like to say thank you for the awesome experience!

Reading these reviews made me want to put in my two cents. I too had the jerk with the long hair, thank God Ive forgotten his name or there would prob be more colorful language. Anyways, $150 for a butchered cross on my arm that I am honestly ashamed to show anyone. The two sides are not symmetrical at all, considering its a fleur de lis, its obvious when the points are at different heights, and when the line work touches? Please. No skill. The only thing I can vouch for is very clean, which is a big deal for me, so much so that even though the artist had steam shooting out of my ears, I understand that that is the artist, and not the business, but I would consider another tattoo from there, but I would be much more exact with what I wanted, but if the artist was that worthless, Id stop him and leave. Let someone else with some skill finish it before I have to have the whole thing redone.

I got my first tattoo here yesterday and i have to say i am very pleased with the whole experience i had! I found out about this place through a co-worker who got her first tattoo here when she turned 50! so i knewi could trust her! I found the environment to be very clean which was important to me! Everyone there was really nice and the guy who did my tattoo was awesome! He would do a little and then stop to make sure i was okay. I know if i ever get another tattoo or want another piercing i will go here! the guys who work here are nice and seem to like what they are doing, they are easy to talk to and joke around with. Their pricing on tattoos was reasonable too, which other places i checked out wasnt. i would recommend this place to anyone! also they want you to come back within 3 weeks to make sure the tattoo is healing good and they will see if any touch ups are needed!

My friends and I came in there to get some tattoos and whatnot, and there was one guy working. I have no idea what his name was but he had long dark hair and a terrible attitude. He had no respect and was very impatient. Not to mention, his prices were way too high. He wound up getting in a a little argument with my friend which really upset her and made the whole trip an extremely negative experience. Fortunately, the credit card reader was down and he suggested we go to a bank across the street. Upon leaving, we all made the decision not to return. I cant speak about all of the employees there, but this man was beyond rude. For the price he wanted us to pay, youd think he could at least make the experience slightly bearable. Im really glad he didnt end up putting a needle in me.
