Even though I did not have the anatomy to do the piercing I wanted, Lauren and everyone was amazing and I'm so glad they didn't just "make it work" and have it looks bad or not heal properly. I'll definitely be thinking of something else to get and will be back!

I had such an amazing experience with Lauren! incredibly professional, kind, and made the whole piercing process so comfortable. Explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt at ease the entire time. The piercing was quick, precise, and turned out perfect. I couldn’t be happier with both the results and the care I received. I highly recommend Lauren if you’re looking for a safe, professional, and positive piercing experience!

After my first tattoo at another shop being a bad experience, I was on a mission to find a high quality, professional tattoo shop. Crow’s Nest has exceeded my expectations. Every 👏🏼single 👏🏼person👏🏼 at Crow’s Nest is friendly, professional, and as an added bonus, just really cool 😎 and down to earth. I enjoy spending time there during my tattoos; it’s such a relaxing, chill environment with an amazingly witty and sweet staff. The level of talent in that shop is phenomenal. There are brilliant artists for every style. I appreciate their patience and care as they listen to ensure that you receive exactly what you intended. With the information I have given during a consultation I have not once been disappointed in the design presented to me. Gentle Josh and Tori match the style of tattoos that I prefer on my body, and both of them have done beautiful work on me. I’ve worked with Tori most recently, her artistic ability blows my mind. Everything she has done on me and others have been absolutely gorgeous ❤️. The crows nest is lucky to have her and the rest of the staff. I can go to my appointments with confidence that my tattoo is going to look phenomenal every time. Tori is also someone I don’t mind sitting close to for 7 1/2 hours straight, which I don’t say about everyone 😂 I’ve received my last four tattoos there, and I’m sure there will be many more to come 😉

I got tattooed by Sierra last weekend and had such a great experience! She made me feel super comfortable and was easy to talk to and get along with! The studio was immaculate and so beautiful. The vibes were 10/10 and I can't wait to go back in a couple weeks and have it finished! 🖤
