Although the staff was nice, I would NEVER recommend this place ever!!!!! On March 17th 2017 I came here to get my Cartilage pierced. I typically go to a different place who does my piercings, so coming to Mee was on a whim because I was in the city with a friend when we decided to get piercings done. The owner is the one who did our piercings. Thankfully my friend did not have any trouble with her piercing, unlike me. We both video taped our sessions of us getting our piercings, and during her piercing, the owner answered the phone with his gloved hands and then finished putting her earring in without changing his gloves. I am disgusted. There are so many germs on phones and you could have caused infection! So unprofessional!! I had my Cartilage pierced. I have never had any issues with any of my other piercings in the past until I got my Cartilage pierced here. 3 days after my piercing, my ear started to swell pretty bad. I kept my piercing clean and used salt soaks and compresses but it kept getting worse. The 5th day, I went to my regular Ear Piercer and he had to remove the earring. I started to take an antibiotic the same day. My ear kept getting progressively worse, swelling and filling up with liquid. My ear has been throbbing, stinging and in severe pain. I then went to the ER at Lancaster General where they prescribed me a second antibiotic and it still didnt help. I went to my Family doctor later that week and he put me on my 3rd set of antibiotics and finally put me on pain killers because the pain was too intense. I finally went to an Ear, Nose and Throat Doctor this last week and got my 4th set of antibiotics and Steriods to help the inflammation!!!!!!!!! My Cartilage was so swollen that It hurt to do anything!!!!!!!!! This past Monday my ear Specialist put me under and opened up my ear and drained the bad infection. To add to all of that, TODAY (Thursday, April 13th), My Ear Doctor called me and told me my Ear cultures came back and I had a bad skin infection due to the piercing and had to be on yet a 5th set of antibiotics!!!!!!!!!! I rewatched the video my friend took when Mee pierced my ear and I believe that the infection came from the pliers he used to close the earring onto my ear. The pliers look like they needed cleaned. At this point I am beyond frustrated and angry because of all of the trauma and pain and wasted money I have had with this infection!!!!!! Sadly, my ear was so bad that it will never look the way it did before I got it pierced. To say I am upset is putting it mildly!!!! Do not EVER go here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had an excellent experience as a walk-in to get a nose piercing this past week. They were very sterile as far as I could see and Mee did everything quick and painlessly. I cant say he walked me through the process like some other piercers supposedly do, but before I knew it, we were done. My eyes watered a lot and Mee was so awesome in making sure I was comfortable and wiped them off for me. I also bled a little more than normal and he made sure I was all cleaned up before he even let me get up. I do have to say the only time I felt even a little bit of pain was when he was moving the piercing around to clean off the blood, but otherwise I was only sore a little after. He was very clear with aftercare procedures, answered all questions clearly and welcomed me back to change the piercing if I need to or if I have any questions. Everything was done just as I would have wanted and the price was just the same as most places as far as Im aware. Definitely will go back for any future piercings or tattoos.

Pierced my belly button, and it healed well and did not get infected. I have several friends who all went here to get their belly buttons pierced as well, and none of theirs got infected either. He changes the ring for you the first time after for free and shows you how to change it from there on out. He is very friendly and funny, and will help you clam down if you are nervous. Was not painful at all, and I was surprised that it was done when it was. He pierces it laying down which I think helps. I tell anyone getting a piercing to go here to get it done!

I received my second tattoo here! No appointment necessary and it was a holiday. They got me and 2 friends in all in the same day. We brought in pictures and he made them look perfect. He asked before adding additional color and was very entertaining. The price was perfect (and for people who are complaining about expensive tattoos... that means its going to be good, which it should be considering its permanent.) He has been tattooing for over 50 years and you could tell by the detail he was able to do. Definitely recommending this place to everyone!

WORST TATTOO EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!! My tattoo ended up infected, there is no color left in my skin at all. The edges look like someone took a ball point pen to it instead of nice neat edges. OVERPRICED!! I had to pay $100 for a tattoo that I have to get completely redone and the tattoo place wont even call me back to do anything about it. I have never had such an awful experience at any other tattoo place. I would NEVER go back to the place again and plan to let anyone else know to never step foot in there either.

After running out of, what seemed like the shadiest tattoo shop, my next stop was tattooing by mee! So glad I found this place, the place was clean and well maintained, the staff was fun and professional, and they have small privacy cubicles to get your work done!! I felt comfortable the entire time and would happily recommend this wonderful place to anyone looking to get a new tattoo! Thank you for the good service and the fun experience :)

I went here a couple months ago, planning on getting my industrial done with my dad and my friend. Mee is the one that i talked too, he told me that my ear wasnt developed enough to do it, Now i dont think anybody else would have done that! So instead i got my eyebrow done and i love it! When i Mee did it i wasnt really nervous at all It was so laid back, it was my first too. This is were i will be going for my future body mods.

Will only go to Mee for tattoos. Wonderful experience, super clean facility, and he has a great personality. He has great intuition about personality and style regarding individual tattoos and the people they are for. I suggest him to everyone I know and he does great quality work and stands by his product. :) Wonderful man, superb artist.

Just got my third tattoo here and compared to the other places I got mine done this is by far the best price and quality. I was expecting to pay a lot more for the quality I got so I have nothing to complain about! He was super nice and made me and my friends experience fun! Check this place out if you want an amazing tattoo!
