Customer service is everything when I go to an establishment and these guys were extremely rude. I went in there already having 1 labret piercing (that I got at a different shop) and I was looking to get another. The guy who pierced me was way horrible at it. I could tell because when I got my first piercing, I didnt even feel the needle go in -- there was absolutely no pain. This guy was a butcher in comparison. He grabbed my lip really hard and found it necessary to be very forceful and shove the needle in roughly. He obviously doesnt know what he is doing because if you know how to use a hollow needle, it does all the work for you. As a result of his roughness my piercing took a long time to heal and got infected, which absolutely did not happen when I got my other one put in. And my buddys also got infected to the point where he had to take them out! Also, the piercer was VERY rude. Not friendly at all, trying to rush us out, and told us all the care instructions in a extremely fast auctioneers voice because he didnt care if we actually knew the instructions, he just wanted to get us out of there. I have heard he does that with everyone and I really dont care for being treated like anything but a valued customer. Also, the woman at the front desk was very rude too. She made no move to greet us or ask what we needed or if we had any questions. She pretty much ignored us from the moment we walked in except when she gave me forms to fill out. Overall, the thing that bothered me most wasnt the lack of skill, but the blatant rudeness. I hate shops like this one because I want to feel like I am in a welcoming and comfortable environment when I am trusting someone to perform a body modification on me, and these guys just want your money and for you to get out. They were jerks and I would never go there again for a piercing, and not for my tattoos either.

Unfortunately I didnt have the best experience at DNA. I went to get my nipples re-pierced and my Philtrum pierced. The nipple piercings were not a bad experience, one was a lot more uncomfortable than the other. But the philtrum piercing was a bit of a bad experience since the jewelry was sitting crooked the first time he pierced it. Then he had me sit back down and I thought he was changing the jewelry or something but there was a lot of pain followed by the piercer telling me he had to clip a bit of skin for the piercing to sit correctly... This seemed odd to me. So that night I had the piercing done the philtrum jewelry came out while I was asleep, and one nipple ended up with a massive blood blister and it bled a lot more than what is normal for my body, since I had them done before and I barely even bruised or bled. I did contact the shop and was told I could get my jewelry put back in but I wasnt really interested in that, I asked for a refund and have still not received a reply.. which is upsetting since I have experienced situations where friends have been refunded for far less unfortunate situations. Oh well. Still a clean shop and Im sure others have better experiences... I understand that things can go wrong I just think taking responsibility is important. Especially since I have quite a lot of body mods and Ive never experienced any issues before...

I just went yesterday to get my cartilage pierced and I have to say the service was awesome. I went and and was given a thorough rundown on everything from what I was signing to how it would be pierced to the pros and cons of each type of earring they could pierce with. Both of them were extremely helpful and ready to give me an answer to all of the questions I asked without missing a beat. Neither minded answering questions about their own tattoos and piercings and experience. Absolutely no complaints. A+++

I went to DNA Ink to get my Diath piercing and had a great experience. Drew did my piecing but I wholly believe that the reassurance I received from the great gall upfront was what cinched it for me. The service was great, the place itself was comfortable and clean, and the procedure was accurately and beautifully placed. I love my new jewelry and I will go back very very soon to do the other side, for esthetic purposes other than migraine induced ones! Great experience!! ☆☆☆☆☆

I went there in March to get a double helix piercing and my first time there was great everyone was nice and when I sat down to get the piercing drew explained everything he was doing and showed me that everything was Starle and clean. Im going again to get a industrial piercing. DNA is probably the only place I trust to get a piercing.

I called them four times to try to get some more information about getting a tattoo and they never picked up. They lost my business I will not be trying to get in touch with them again

I have multiple tattoos from Scotty, my wife does as well. This is the only place we go for all our tattoos and piercings. Great people, amazing skill and quality work.

Totally awesome. I lost my ring in the cartilage in my ear. Bought a new ring and Drew put it back on and not to mention, they were closed. Thanks Drew.
