Sloan is THE single most talented artist Ive ever had the pleasure of working with. Ive had tattoos done by several artists in the past, and she is the only person Ive returned to. I still dont believe shes only been tattooing for a year, and I cannot wait until shes the most renowned artist in the High Country, and maybe even the state. Shes also incredibly kind and gracious and such a joy to spend the day with. I would literally put myself into a lifetime of debt to continue getting my work done by her. It would be absolutely worth it. I constantly look forward to the next piece shell do for me. I cant wait until we finish my sleeve and every other piece we do together.
I received my second tattoo here yesterday (Oct. 6, 21) and wow was it so much fun! My tattoo artist Sloan (@NAOLS on Instagram, check out her work!) was absolutely lovely and such a blast to talk to while she did my tattoo. Everyone who came in was lovely, it was just such a great and cozy environment that welcomed me and my goofy questions. You really can’t ask for a better place to get tattooed, and especially for the price. Worth every penny and second!
This was a very professional appointment. I walked in and was immediately attended to. The workers were all very nice and social which made me feel much more comfortable. The piercing process was easy and my piercer talked me through everything, making sure I was calm and knew what was going on. This was amazing and not to mention, the prices were incredible. I paid $30 for a nose piercing including the titanium jewelry used. Highly recommend.
Sloan was my artist and she did an amazing job! I would definitely recommend her. I got a small jelly fish near my collar bone, and she took the time to make sure I liked the placement and size of the tattoo. She was super patient with all of my requests and questions, and she really took her time! I’m super happy with my experience and my tattoo
Chelsea was my piercer and was absolutely amazing! She was very clean and walked me through the entire process. I will definitely be going back
AMAZING! best place i have ever gone to for a piercing and i have been to quite a few places. the employees were amazing, the jewelry selection was 10/10, the price is also so affordable. i am very impressed and will be going back! if you haven’t given this place a go for piercings then please do!
I got 2 small tattoos done by Sloan (@naols on instagram) and I’m so happy with her work! As an autistic person who is easily overstimulated, she was kind and accommodating to my needs. I could tell how much effort she put into the pieces and she was so pleasant the entire time. I’ll definitely be going back to her for every tattoo I get!
Noble is great! Just got a tattoo there a few days ago and I love it--the artists are super talented. Sloan did my piece and she was amazing, super friendly and really great with her work. Highly recommend!
Got a tattoo from Sloan here of a pokemon, done SO WELL, and she asked my input on everything about the design. Honestly, very clean shop, very good artists and relaxed environment. I travel 2 hours to go here and really its the only place I really want to go. PHENOMENAL ART.
I had my tattoo done by Sloan. I got a little palm tree on my pinky. She was super friendly and definitely calmed my nerves. She did a great job with the tattoo, it’s super thin and outlined really well which I like for finger tattoos. She wasn’t using too much pressure so it didn’t hurt as bad as some other tattoos I’ve gotten. I highly recommend going to her :)
I’ve been to Noble three times within the past couple weeks and it’s been amazing every time!! Chelsea did a great job on all of my piercings (navel, conch, nostril, industrial) and made me feel very comfortable throughout the process. Sloan did an absolutely AMAZING job on the tattoo I got on Sunday, whipping up the perfect design on short notice & gave me my favorite tattooing experience so far- she really took her time & put a lot of work into giving me exactly what I wanted. I will definitely be going back to her for more soon :) Overall I absolutely love Noble and I recommend it to anyone that comes to Boone !!
Ive gotten piercings at Noble before and had good experiences, so I wanted to have my first tattoo done there. Had the consultation over a month in advance with Georgia (had looked into her work and really liked it), put down the payment for a small, simple forearm tattoo (no shading or color, just an outline) over some scars, explained that it had a lot of meaning to me. All was well and appointment was booked. Today I arrived for my appointment, only for the artist to have not only booked another appt for the same time, but had me down for the wrong day AND a completely wrong tattoo. The artist barely seemed concerned and offered to try and squeeze me in before they closed, but I was no longer comfortable with the idea of her tattooing me, especially in a rush and because of the importance this had to me. I got my money back, but I’m still very surprised and disappointed by how unprofessional this was. I definitely will not be coming back for any services in the future. :(
Sloan did a rib tattoo for me and was amazing. She made sure that it looked amazing and the writing was perfect. She also touched up a bad tattoo I had. I got so many compliments on it and was told it looked amazing after she fixed it. Highly recommend!
Friendly staff made it a really enjoyable experience, Colin paid a lot of attention to detail and i love the outcome!! Really good prices as well. (Raised look on tattoo is bc its an hour old, not infection)
I’ve been coming to noble for all my tattoos for the past couple months and I absolutely love it!! I usually see colin and he does great but this time I saw a young lady named Sloan and she killed it!!! Nearly crushed her foot trying to save me from falling off the chair lolllllll. Overall thought she was super quick and thorough, clean straight lines, and she works with you during the tattoo making sure you get every single detail the way you envisioned. Truly talented artist and such a pleasant person to be spending 5-7 hours with 💕
Got my ears pierced here roughly 4 weeks ago. Extremely friendly atmosphere, and my piercer was very understanding of my anxiety/trembling, and it only took a few minutes. They also gave me a paper with clear instructions on how to care for the piercings while they heal for 6-8 weeks, and I have had no problems so far. Overall an amazing experience!
Throughout my experience everyone was very friendly and welcoming as soon as I walked in including my artist Sloan her work was everything I could’ve wished and asked her I will be coming back
Just got my septum pierced here, excellent experience! :) They were very kind, professional, and did an awesome job! Love the atmosphere inside too, super cool and very clean.
Took my daughter here for her 17th birthday gift. She got an industrial and a nose piercing. The piercer was fantastic! Very informative, let you know exactly what she was doing, was very professional and pain was very minimal. Infact, she was so good, I got a tragus and daith piercing myself. Aftercare was explained throughly and they even do free jewelry exchanges! Highly recommend for piercings.
I got tattoo’d by Sloan here and she did an absolutely AMAZING JOB. So talented and LOVED the end results.
Sloan gave me and my friend amazing tattoos. she made me feel comfortable and kept checking up on me and my friend making sure we were ok.
Piercer was very nice and professional, and took barely any time at all. I got a nostril piercing and it was $25 plus tip and was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Overall very good environment for a piercing/tattoo place and awesome staff, very happy with my experience
The piercing wait list is a complete joke. Have been on it more than once for them to say “we won’t have time to get to you”. Well okay, why did you tell me you would have time and to go ahead and put my name on the list? I had to call to find out, they didn’t call me and let me know. Almost 2 hours wasted waiting for them to call me in. I live 30 minutes from town so there’s no way I could go home and wait.
Sloan did such an amazing job on my tattoo i absolutely love it and i’m requesting her next time !!!
I went in on Friday, August 20th and scheduled an appointment for 5pm on Tuesday August 24th. Once I went in for my appointment I was embarrassed at the door and was informed that they didn’t even take appointments and that I could wait but that there was no promise that they would get to me that day. The woman who took my name had her photo on the wall, so I assumed I’d be well taken care of. How does an employee have their photo on the wall and still not understand the business? Why did they tell me to come in Tuesday at 5 if there wasn’t even an option for appointments? Complete and utter waste of time.
Chelsea pierced my nose and it was so quick and easy! She’s very nice, friendly, and professional. Would definitely recommend getting a piercing there!
Staff was incredibly kind, Annie tattooed me and overall good experience would do again
Shannon did my second tattoo, took the pic I gave him and designed it. It is beautiful!! Chelsea also fixed my belly button piercing and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. If you want a tattoo or piercing, check them out. Everyone was amazing and I can’t wait to get my next tattoo!!
Sloan did amazing work! I got a small full color paint brush tattoo and it looks so realistic, Im very happy with it. She has a light hand, so the pain was minimal. The shop is friendly and very cleanly and safe.
Very kind and accommodating. Fit me in the same day I called. Love the work.
Great walk-in experience for some simple work. Good vibes.
She did great! talked me through the whole thing! I got my daith done:) Alison did it
Got a memorial tattoo for my mom and a BFF tattoo as well. This shop was very clean and the people who own and run it are very knowledgeable and nice. My tattoos turned out amazing. Id drive the 8 hours just to go back and get more. Thank you guys!
Ive gotten 2 ear piercings as well as a nose piercing here and have nothing but positive things to say about this place. Great prices, very knowledgable and friendly staff, and just a fun experience every time! Best piercing shop in town no doubt!
Great staff, Chelsea pierced my wifes ears about 20 mins ago. She was professional and very nice. I highly recommend them for your tattoo and piercing needs!
They are very nice friendly people and they do their best to get you in and out in a timely manner.
Got 2 ear piercings here in October, terrible job. The piercings healed fine but they were pierced at a downward angle, causing my earrings to point up and making it extremely difficult to get some earrings through the hole
I took my daughter for her first nose piercing here and Chelsea is AWESOME!! She was so nice and clean and talked her through the whole thing. Great place. Merry Christmas Chelsea! Sorry forgot to tell you before we left!
Great place and very clean and Chelsea is really nice and makes you feel at ease..she did a few piercings for me
I wanted a cartilage piercing but I’m terrified of needles. The ladies at Noble were so sweet and cheered me on the whole time! Chelsea did an amazing job and was very quick and precise! One of the other ladies even held my hand so I wouldn’t be nervous! Best place in Boone!
The chick that does the piercings is amazing very professional and polite done a perfect job no pain at all would definitely recommend this place everyone was awesome
They are so kind and did such a great job with my piercing. I got my ears pierced for the first time and was a little nervous about it. Chelsea eased all my fears and made it to be such a wonderful experience. I highly recommend them!
Tattoos and piercings are from good quality artists.
I got my nipples pierced here and I almost passed out but not only were the ladies here super sweet they helped me feel better the whole way. The lady who did the piercings was super respectful and fun to talk to. Highly recommend visiting!!
I cant remember our piercer’s name but she was so awesome and professional! she answered all our questions and we all love our new piercings! great place:))
Everyone is awesome very helpful its not expensive and you would think going in there to get a tattoo or piercing would hurt horribly bad but they make it feel less so I love going there and will continue to do so
Absolutely the best experience I couldve had, being new to tattoos. About three months ago I got one on my bicep. Waited to review, because I wanted to see how well the tattoo held up (which it did!).First time around, I walked in with my tattoo already laid out and ready to go.Went back in day before yesterday for my second tattoo, this time a custom piece, by Colin. Had a quick consultation a couple weeks ago where I had brought in other tattoos that I liked, and basically told him I want this, this and this from these, and then of course add your own style to it. He took some time last week to get the outline drawn up.Was blown away by what he came up with, and it felt just as epic to get put on.Not only are the tattoos awesome, but the overall experience was super chill and casual, and I can tell that Colin absolutely knows what hes doing and loves it. It easily put down any first tattoo nerves that I had the first time around, and then this second time was just as great. While Colin is the main person Ive worked with as the artist for both of my tattoos, the whole team is super friendly, and Im certain that theyre at the same standard!Cant wait for the third time!
The kindest folks in Boone! Extremely welcoming, calming atmosphere. Have gotten several piercings from them in the past few years, all amazing quality. Allison is so wonderful! Highly recommend.
Best Tattoo shop I drive 2 hours just to get it done here. So friendly and professional. Make sure you ask for Jerry.
By far my favourite piercing and tattoo shop in town. Great jewelry selection. Super helpful and accommodating staff, Ive been coming here for the past year religiously, I work a block away so now my staff has started using Noble as their #1 go-to. Love the owners tattoo styles, its different from what youd usually expect around Boone. All the artist there have a refreshing vibe that makes me hopeful the shop will be around for a good, long time. Yeah, its a small shop but Im always SO impressed how Nikki and Allison are able to hold back the chaos while still being respectful and professional, MAD RESPECT YALL. Cant wait to get more artistic wounds from you guys in the future 💜
Colin and Allison are awesome! Clean shop. Professionalism without stuffiness. A great experience. Get your ink here!
They have done a total of 5 piercings for me now and each time they have been so fast but also patient. I’ve had times when two piercings were being done and they waited until I was ready for the second one before continuing. They also can answer any question you throw at them (even the dumb ones). They’re really greatly priced and a great shop too. Everything is clean and organized. They are following COVID guidelines amazingly in order to keep their customers and themselves safe. I can’t say enough great things about them!
Chelsey was amazing! So patient and friendly! Very welcoming and professional. Extremely clean. Best place hands down to get piercings!
Definitely going back!
I got my nose periced so good
Such a great experience!! If you’re looking to get piercings, look no further. Allison is the best and I HIGHLY recommend her!! She’s such a calming presence and walks you through everything!!
The best shop in Boone NC. Allison, and Colin are amazing,
Chesla and her helper was super sweet today and did a great job with my daughter and my piercing. I would recommend her to anyone. She is super fast.
Took less then 10 mins.
Very friendly and helpful! Very clean place! I would highly recommend them! Allison done great piercing my nose! Love it!
Some of the most professional and friendly people I know. And pricing doesnt kill you! Will always go to them
I had both nostrils pierced by Allison. I was a walk-in, but I only had to wait a couple of minutes for her to come downstairs. She was super clean and positioned them perfectly, and while it hurt a bit more than I expected (I had only had ear lobe and cartilage piercings up until today), it didnt hurt long. When she was done she showed me how to properly clean them. Very happy overall!
Had a small tattoo done on my wrist today by Jerry, he did a great job was very calm and friendly and I’m very happy! Will definitely be coming back for more tattoos in the future! Also price was very reasonable.
So I went almost two months ago to get my nipples pierced. Allison did them and she did an absolutely fantastic job. Went back today to get some rings put in and was just amazed by the punctuality and professional service. Will be back for more work soon!
What can I say but Amazing, it is always a pleasure to get tattooed by Colin at Noble Tattoos & Piercings. His attention to detail and positive attitude make it the Best in Boone.
This is going to be long, but it’s worth the read.I realize that I can’t speak for the entire shop, but I certainly would not recommend Jerry. I sent him a very detailed explanation of what i wanted in my tattoo, with pictures included, the day i made my appointment. (First three pictures are of description and inspiration pictures i emailed him). The next day, when I came in for my tattoo, I had to wait 40 minutes for him to read the email and draw out the tattoo. Compared to everything else this is a minuscule issue, but it was still annoying. All was well once the outline of my tattoo was done, but things went south quickly after that.He apparently remembered incorrectly me saying that i wanted a good bit of shading, and did not feel the need to verify this with me before putting it on my body. I also asked to only have the lavender purple in my tattoo and the rest non colored. He then instead of asking, assumed that the leaves on my lavender sprigs were supposed to be purple when they (i though obviously) were leaves. I could understand a male not knowing the anatomy of lavender but if he didnt know, he should have asked me what parts were purple!!! I thought i could trust my tattoo artist so i was not looking during the process and i did not notice the shading until it was done and caught the purple leaves after he had only finished one side. (Fourth picture is the tattoo i left Noble with after it had healed).Even after all of this, I wasnt going to post a negative review because technically it was a mistake (despite the fact that he should have verified every aspect of the tattoo with me before putting it on my body), and i could tell he felt bad about it. However afterwards, I found out he was either extremely wrong about, or lied about, how easy (or not) the process of fixing his mistakes would be. He told me i could get the purple leaves tattooed over with nude color once every month, 4 times total, and it would be like it never happened.LUCKILY i am not from Boone, so I went to consult with another artist in Greenville, NC when it came time for my first supposed touch up within the process of fixing my tattoo. I obviously was told by even the receptionist at the Greenville shop that you cannot take away from a tattoo, only add.I was also told that Jerry scarred my skin by going over my purple leaves with nude immediately after tattooing them purple. He was more worried about covering his ass than my wellbeing. Jerry even suggested and had me considering the quick fix of coloring the leaves in black, which would have looked absolutely terrible upon reflection. If I did live in Boone and followed Jerrys plan, I would probably have ended up with half of my lavender leaves very scarred and still purple tinted. What’s almost comical is that when I had asked Jerry about putting green over the purple, he said the colors would mix and make the leaves brown. Yet he told me nude could cover purple.But anyways, Thanks to the shop in Greenville, I now have green leaves in both sides, although the non-purple side is brighter while the ex-purple side is darker with purple around the edges still. (Fifth picture NOT JERRYS WORK) I am hopeful that the purple can be completely covered and the brightness of the green evened out after another session or two. However I will be stuck with the dark shading i never wanted and that doesnt even make sense in terms of light perspective forever, unfortunately. I walked into noble wanting a delicate, minimally shaded and minimally colored tattoo. I now have a very heavy and colored tattoo.At least after the work in Greenville, it now looks normal to others (who dont consider light perspective), and Im thrilled to almost no longer have purple leaves (no thanks to Jerry), but it’s still far from what I wanted. Which is what matters.I’ve seen proof that jerry can do good work.But if you are working with an even semi original idea, not 100% straight from a preexisting image, proceed with extreme caution.
Recently got my 2nd tattoo at this shop and it is extremely clean and the staff is very friendly and nice. Tyler did my last one and he did an excellent job. Would definitely return for another one. Thanks
My boyfriend and I are visiting Boone for the weekend and wanted to get some kind of souvenir since we’re celebrating his birthday and our anniversary, and tattoos were the perfect idea for us. We stopped by around 1 to put our names on a Walk-Ins list and were called around 4 to do the tattoos. Joe was our artist for both tattoos, a moth and a switchblade, and both turned out amazing. He was so personable and very talented. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The shop is on the smaller side but the friendliness of the artists makes up for it!!
I was in Boone for about 36 hours and really wanted to get a tattoo as part of my journey. Not only was Noble able to get me right in, I now have an amazing spiderweb on my elbow that Jerry busted out in no time. Great tattoo shop with a chill atmosphere, great people and conversation. Their piercer had a steady flow of customers while I was there. I definitely will be back the next time I am in town and highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a tattoo in Boone. Peace
Jerry is great at what he does!
Such a nice place. They did my industrial and i’m in love. Friendly people, great prices and not a long wait. I seriously can’t wait to go back to get another piercing or a tattoo. Definitely recommend!
The owner of the shop did my tattoo and two I can’t wait to get more tattoos from him, Great tat’s
My husband and I came in as walk-ins. The staff there was very friendly and welcoming. They fit us right in. The atmosphere was great, and a very clean environment! Our tattoo artist was Gerardo (Jerry). He did such a great job, and in a timely manner. Little to no pain for both of our tattoos. We will definitely return next time were in Boone! Highly recommend!
Not the best place to get a piercing, but the tattoos are good.The piercings were sterile and done with a single use needle (all good!), however I was pierced with the wrong gauge needle and was given a butterfly back stud for healing, which is a big no no for any piercing other than lobes.I didn’t know any better at the time. Thankfully, it has healed well with no problems other than the hole now being too small for me to wear most cartilage jewelry. Live and learn.
Its a small shop but its great! I was a walk in for a double nostril piercing and didnt wait at all. She did it fast, and really well. Super happy with it! Also got my sons name tattooed on a pre-existing tattoo, and its wonderful! He did an excellent job! Im already lining up another tattoo with Amber. Im really happy to have found an affordable high quality tattoo shop near by.
Not only are the artists amazing to work with, but the artists are wonderfully skilled as well. I have been tattooed several times by a couple artists at Noble and I am pleased with their work. I will continue going to Noble for all my piercing and tattoo needs. I understand things may get a little hectic, but they do their very best to accommodate everyone and everything the person wants.
Very clean and organized. I walked in without an appointment and they were very accommodating. Amber is super chill and a great artist. I’ll definitely be going back soon.
A tiny shop. Good piercing selection and all piercings above the waist were only $20! Not a very personal experience but good for a quick piercing! I dont know how their tattooing is since ive never gotten one here.
I get all my piercings and tattoos here. Every artist is very talented and has a unique style. Extremely sanitary and safe. The piercer is skilled at all piercings and also does amazing tattoos. Friendly staff and knowledgeable about what they do!!
I’ve gotten three tattoos here so far and I love them all. I always stick with Amber, she’s an awesome artist who is extremely meticulous and really puts people at ease. I’ve taken several friends to Noble for their tattoos and we’ve all had a great experience. Awesome clean shop with a great environment.
Excellent tattoo shop. Very clean. Very professional. Very accommodating. I just got my 3rd tattoo from Colin. Hes a very talented artist and great at what he does!! Colin and Allison are both very friendly!! Extremely reasonable pricing. Highly recommend this shop. Looking forward to going back for another tattoo!!!!
I called in on a whim and they made time for me. Tattoo turned out awesome, Amber did a great job. Going back soon for another. Highly recommend.
It was a very nice experience for me. Joe was extremely nice and did a great job on my cover up tatoo. I will for sure be back to get another one. Very clean environment and friendly, sociable staff.
I’ve gotten 5 different piercings over the last year and they’ve all been amazing! Nikki is so friendly and does a wonderful job every time!!
Although we decided to get a set of matching tattoos last minute, we had called the shop to ask if they had any availability for a last minute appointment. They had told us over the phone that the tattoo could be done the next day and to stop in to go over design details so it would be prepared for the next day. We drove to the shop to go over the tattoo with an artist only to be told we couldn’t be fit into their day tomorrow and that we couldn’t get our tattoos. We had to frantically search around for another shop because we were under the impression that we had an appointment ready to go, and nearly couldn’t get them done. Very happy we switched shops to a more friendly, laid back environment.
I got my septum done here and the girl doing it was super nice. The whole atmosphere is great and it just seems clean compared to some of the other places Ive seen and been in.
The piercings that my daughter and I received look amazing! Allison was so sweet and professional that she put my daughter completely at ease through the whole process and made sure she understood how to take care of her new piercing before we left the shop.
