“I just got a tattoo with Eli today and couldn’t be happier! Eli was very informative about the pros and cons of my selection, and ultimately guided me towards the tattoo that was best suited for me. He was very patient and genuinely wanted me to be happy with what I chose. I heavily recommend getting work done with Eli, and I will certainly be coming back for more in the future.“

“I’ve been to New Hope twice now for tattoos. Both have been amazing. They are very clean, knowledgeable, and kind. First time I had Noe who did an awesome job. He also did my boyfriend’s tattoo today! Second time I had Ram-he did a great job! He was very knowledgeable!! He steered me in the right direction with suggestions to make my tattoo last and look good long term. We chatted throughout the entire process and he is very kind and laid back. He is very patient and makes sure you are happy with placement, size, etc before beginning. I’ve been wanting this tattoo for a while and I’m so glad I finally got it done today with Ram! I will be going to him in the future for sure. Highly highly recommend Noe and Ram ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“10/10 recommend going to see Jules! She helped change out a piercing for me I got done at another shop & she was the sweetest & I have such cute jewelry now will definitely be going back to her for my future piercings!“

“Just got my doubles on my ear lobe and double cartilage piercings here and I'm so happy I chose this place. Everyone was super friendly and the place is really clean. I believe my piercers name was Anthony, I was kind of nervous so I forgot, but anyway he was super professional, knowledgeable, and explained every part of the process as well as detailed aftercare instructions and answered all of my questions. Will definitely come back for any other piercing needs!!“

“May be a simple piece, but Ceejay did an incredible job! Looks amazing and clean even during the healing process! I felt so welcomed here and everyone I spoke with/conversed with are so kind. Dusty and Anna were even kind enough to get me a smoothie, although dusty wouldn’t accept my money for it. Very kind people, will definitely be back for my next tattoo. Will be tempting not to come in just to play some pool however ?“

“Just come here! If you’ve been debating back & forth where to get your piercing/nervous or jittery just come here. Debbie made me feel so comfortable for my nose piercing, talked me through the entire thing. You can tell she knows her stuff! I’ll definitely be recommending all my family/friends here 10/10 SO happy!!

Cleanliness: CLEANEST PLACE“

“empire tattoo is absolutely amazing, they have very knowledgeable and friendly staff who are all so very talented! I highly recommend them!“

“Went here for a tattoo for my husband and had a wonderful experience with Jon. The artist was exceptionally skilled and very talented. Jon was kind, and willing to work with a piece that I had drawn for my husband. There were very fine line pieces that Jon captured perfectly, and he was also gracious in giving my husband a break when his arm got sore.This tattoo was very significant for us, so it was important for us to get this done right.Scheduling was a breeze, and the owner was courteous and willing to work with our schedule. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a clean, and professional tattoo experience in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.Side note, I was also very grateful they allowed me to watch The Golden Girls while I waited, lol.“

“The ABSOLUTE best! Mike is so kind and patient. He'll take the time to ensure you're happy with the design and placement before beginning. His work is always top notch, no matter the style. I have several pieces done by Mike and I frequently have strangers approach me to ask who did them! I love showing off his work and can't wait to get more in the future. Can't recommend him enough!!“

“I had a tattoo done in Hawaii about 9 years ago. And as I was looking at it . It needed some updating. I had gone by there shop a few times but never went in. There was a group of us that wanted to get some artwork done. So I went to check it out and 4 1/2 hours later I came home with an update tattoo. Everyone was surprised and liked the artwork. My wife and daughter made their appointment that day. Darrell did my work and would highly recommend him. The gentleman that did my wife and daughters did great job too . My daughter and I are going to have a day out and have some more artwork done.“

“I really enjoyed my haircuts there. Though now you need an appointment due to the pandemic.“

“I just got a hair cut and the guy victor did a really great job, so profesional and he knows how to take care of people!!! I’ll be back soon!!!“

“Alex pierced my daughter's ears. Very professional and patient. We will definitely return if she ever wants additional piercings!“

“I didn’t know where to get inked up here in Illinois and I had a hell of a time finding someone to cover up a name. Jermey took care of me. He did excellent work and the customer service was great. I said I wasn’t gonna get any more but now this place has me thinking again. Will post pictures when healed.“

“I got a tattoo today of my dog that passed away in May. I am so glad I got a tattoo that means so much to me at Wasted Youth Tattoo & PMA Piercing.

I was received by B Who was so phenomenal! Great customer service from beginning to the end of my session.

Tattoo was from Megan. I was so impressed by how she captured my dog's essence/soul.

10/10 would come here again and would absolutely recommend. Great staff. Clean and great environment.“
