Left this place feeling really sad and disappointed. Felt like I got scammed. I was uncharged for jewelry without my knowledge because apparently the earrings that normally come included with the piercings had ran out…. Even though there were hundreds of earrings available for purchase so I find that hard to believe. Also, the price point of “$25 for piercings including jewelry” is misleading when it comes to getting your doubles pierced. Normally you pay for the pair if it’s not on your cartilage when it comes to earrings but here he charged per ear. Would not return sadly. Wanted to like this place.

I would love to talk to establishment owners about how this shop illegally raises their listed prices, after placing jewelry into your body and then aggressively demands the raised fee. I will be contacting law enforcement / filing a complaint if my concern isn’t addressed. Shady practices don’t come here. I was told I would be paying $25 for jewelry/piercing then charged extra for the artist choosing to use a different more expensive type of jewelry due to them being “out of the cheaper one”, which I find hard to believe given that they waited until after the piercing was in and then aggressively demanded $170 for piercing two teens ears which should have cost $100. You took advantage of a woman with her teen nieces shame on you. The law explicitly states that the price must not be "represented in any manner calculated or tending to mislead or deceive an actual or prospective purchaser". You’re stealing and I hope nobody supports this place.

I normally give the piercer 5 stars because he has done a few of my piercings and I love them but recently I talked him up to my little sister and we went in to get her other side of her nose pierced. She went in and we thought it looked even. He didn’t tell her to take a deep breath and also pierced it with a labre jewelry. The gage was too big and she now has to wait for it to close a little before her regular piercer to fix it. It felt a little rushed and lazy and I get that we paid $25 for it but still. I am highly disappointed because I had never been done wrong in that shop and I have talked him up to a lot of people. I feel like if you are getting a one and done he is amazing. I just wish it would have worked out well for my little sister…

I made an appointment on a leap of faith. Turned out great. Nothing super special about the place, but I did like that there are private spaces for piercings and tattoos. I only discribed what I wanted for my tattoo and Madison had drawings ready when I got there. She some how brought my vision to life without much modification. The detail turned out great. I love my tattoo to commemorate an amazing trip to Peru.

Patient with questions, knowledgeable with answers, considerate with care and accomodations. Will definitely come back if I get more piercings, need jewelry, or if I end up with more tattoos, I'm certain they'd help me out and get it done for a great price. Shop is clearly clean, to the extent that even the fish tank in there is clean and full of happy fish.

Excellent experience! I needed help cleaning I piercing that I had gotten at a different studio. They helped me and gave tips on how to clean it at home as well. And they didn’t charge me for the visit! Will be back for any piercing needs or new piercings!!

I hate leaving negative reviews on small businesses but my piercing experience here was pretty botched. In early May, I got an eyebrow and septum done at ABSOLUTE INK and while my eyebrow turned out nice (though I wasn’t informed I’d need to downsize after four to six weeks) my septum was deviously bad. At the time, I didn’t know much about septum piercings, but apparently they’re supposed to hit this “sweet spot” up at the tip of your nose w/ very little cartilage, and the dude who pierced me went straight through the cartilage at the bottom, hurt real bad, but worse yet, it left the jewelry looking real goofy. Attached a photo for reference.
