I just went today to get a nose piercing and Mike was amazing. I was so nervous because I hate needles, right away he was joking around with me (he could probably tell I was nervous) and even when I went in the room he joked around. The piercing was fast and so painless. I also had in a belly button piercing done a while ago but I couldn’t get it out. I asked him if he could give it a try and he got it! Will definitely come back for more piercings done here.
I loved the atmosphere, I was getting my ears pierced for the first time yesterday (also my first piercing) and it was done so great! It really felt like it took 30 seconds! I was told when I could change it, how to take care of it, and it was just an awesome experience. The piercing barely hurt, and they were so precautious and made me feel so much more positive about getting it. My ears don't hurt at all, and it was just an amazing experience overall. If you're thinking about getting a piercing here, just do it! Most likely coming back if I ever wanna get another piercing!
Definitely recommend this shop! I’ve had several piercings done here, and Mike is awesome. He's funny, and I love his sarcasm! He explained everything, and wrote down what I’ll need to change out my jewelry to gauge wise in the future. Can’t beat the price for piercings either. The shop itself is cool, and the entire staff is super friendly. Definitely worth the drive out!
I love the atmosphere @ THE TAT CAVE It was my first time getting my nose pierced and Mike was my piercer and he made the entire process so much better, he’s very funny and has a way of making you feel welcome/very comfortable. He’s very knowledgeable and told me everything he was doing before he did it, very quick and surprisingly not painful at all. It’s been 3 days now my nose doesn’t hurt at all and is healing fine. Upon entering I was greeted with a smile definitely would recommend this place. I’ll definitely be returning for soon for a tattoo ????????
Been going to Kidd and the Tat Cave for every one of my tattoos and have nothing but a great experience and exceptional finished product every time! Kidd is an absolute professional and everyone in the Shop jokes around and has a great time there. Truly feel like a family friend every time I walk in. Excellent place for tattoos! Great place for piercings! I highly recommend Kidd and the Tat Cave to anyone and everyone who is thinking about getting a tattoo or a piercing!
I got a tattoo done when I turned 18 and it was a simple dragon tattoo on my hand/wrist I was told it would be like 180 or so. I had came in and everything was normal until he finished, it was less than 1 hour #1 I thought it was normal because it was first tattoo. Then he tells me it’ll be like 200 I had gave him 300$ in total 200 plus 20 for tip because I didn’t have change, #2 I asked for my change back and he acted like he didn’t hear me, i just wanted to get out of there so I didn’t ask for the money back again. He told me to come back for a retouch, but I never came back. My tattoo was not worth 300$, I didn’t even get it colored or detailed. It’s just the outline of a dragon and took less than an hour. I forgot to mention I’m Hispanic, I’ve gotten piercings here before but when I got my tattoo the vibe was off, different and I felt like I didn’t belong.
Great experience! Came in 10 min till close and they were super chill. Saturn did great. Got me and my two friends in and out in less than 10 min.
