I got a helix piercing. My piercer (Meg? Im ashamed, I dont recall her name) was great! She was really nice, super quick, it barely hurt while in the chair. She was experienced enough to identify scar tissue in my ear that would have caused problems & to change the piercing location. Gave me all the after care instructions.

Riley did my nose piercing and it didnt hurt whatsoever. So professional and fast. She made me feel calm about getting the piercing because the first time I had gotten it at tattoo nation and they put it in a completely wrong spot. I will be going to Riley from now on. 🙂

I’m very disappointed with Axis Tattoos. My wife’s friends recommended us to bring our daughters in for a tattoo. None of the artists were nice to my daughters all my girls wanted were simple sunflowers and butterflies. They’ve never had a tattoo before. They went inside the shop they asked for assistance and nobody helped them. And some one with bright neon colored hair looked at my daughters with disgust and told them that nobody can tattoo them and they’ll be closed for a month? My daughters found out that their friend got a tattoo from axis and told them they’re not closed at all they’re still opened. Why lie about being closed if you don’t wanna tattoo my girls it’s easier to say that you can’t do it or you’re booked? My neighbor has been going to Axis for 3 years and this is how you treat my daughters? What a joke.

About two months ago I got an orbital piercing by Riley. The piercing never healed correctly, despite my constant cleaning it with wound wash. I went to a different piercer to have it removed because it was just so painful. The other piercer told me that the post was the wrong length and was squeezing my ear, causing it to sink into my ear at both ends. I should have known to wait, since Riley admitted to being hung over that day and had injured her thumb the night before. Now I have huge open wounds on both sides of my ear.

Cindy is the best artist Ive had in years, shes fantastic. I cant speak for the other artists but I would imagine they are more than qualified to give you the tattoo you want. Remember, good tattoos are never cheap and cheap tattoos are never good. I will be back!

I came to Axis Tattoo for my very first tattoo in August 2020, and have been going since. Im currently working on a Horror sleeve with Cindy, she is very professional and a true artist. Shes been able to take ideas and make some fantastic tattoos! I will definitely continue working with Cindy and I highly recommend her; first timer or not. Axis Tattoo shop is very clean and the staff are always very friendly, definitely worth checking out! This review was long overdue...

My experience was wonderful with tattoo artist Michael Casarez. He did some of the best work I have ever seen, and it was a cover up piece to top it off. Thank you again for your amazing work. I am embarrassed to post the original tattoo but you deserve the recognition for your unbelievable work. It was very affordable too.

Megan did my nostril piercing and 3 weeks later did my 13yo daughters double helix.This was my daughters very first (and second) piercing. Megan made great suggestions on placement due to ear shape. And even though I couldnt go into the room with my daughter (Rona), I could see through the window into Megans space. She took great care of her!Shes super sweet and thorough in explaining everything including aftercare. Shes also quick! BING, BANG, DONE!The shop was also clean and quiet. Other artists smiled and said hi. We felt very comfortable during our visits.I wouldnt hesitate one second to refer my friends to Axis!

Me and some close friends have had several different services preformed here and we have had nothing but great experiences! Today Riley helped me and a friend in a spur of the moment piercing venture and yet again we had another very positive experience! Riley was incredibly thorough on after care instructions and talked me through the process as it was done (I was pretty nervous this time around). Really the only shop I truly trust especially in the area we live. Thanks again Riley!

Guess they specialize in piercings and thats about it. They couldnt attempt to freehand a simple black cat silhouette without NEEDING to print it and trace.I guess when Im ready for my prince albert I know where to go...

Review №34

Great service and incredible artists at a fair price, theyll even make deals if you come in with several people. Its cash only, but they have their own ATM. Theyll work with any design you give them to get you a perfect tattoo, and theyll even draw up anything you can imagine and give it their own special flare like in my case. I highly suggest this place for any tattoo or piercing you need.

Review №47

The piercer Riley has the personality of a rock. No bedside manner if any. Constantly acts like he has something better to be doing than answering your questions and giving you a sense of security that hes confident in his skills. Because he does not. Im sure the tattoo work is great at Axis, but if you need to get a solid piercing, find someone else. Id give 1/2 a star if possible.

Im a person that wants to be pierced but not a big needle fan, yes the struggle is real lol. My artist if I can call her that was amazing calmed the nerves and was quick clean and fun. I will be going back again once I work up the nerve! I got a beautiful lip piercing called the Medusa I believe and I love it! I also took my child because well Im a Mom and she was kind enough to understood my need to have him near for his safety and she asked him to sit near the door and assured Mom was going to be fine.

Got piercings done by Meg today. It was the 1st time going there because they had amazing reviews. The shop was super clean and it even smelled clean when you entered the shop. Everyone was extremely nice. Meg was amazing. She explained everything before she started and after she was done. She made me feel really comfortable. I will definitely go back for future piercings or my next tattoo! :)

I highly recommend Adam, very professional and a true artist who takes pride in his work!

Review №68

Very Happy!!! My friend and I left another shop because of how we were treated and he didnt even want to do the tattoo we were asking for. He wanted to change it so he didnt have to tattoo a circle. It was a smiley face. It should be a circle. He ended up being very rude and we left and came here. Don was patience and attentive!!! He drew up exactly what we wanted!!! He was very friendly and was a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend him for future tattoos. My friend and I were really happy that we got what we wanted and was treated the way we deserved to be treated as a paying customer.

Went in for my wife to get nose piercing. Excited and ready to pay and get it done. Up front we asked nicely how they clean their needles, looking for an answer about their procedure. Legit question of a tattoo parlor we never been to. Person up front rudely asked if we were serious by our question. If you cant anwser how you keep your parlor clean, Im not giving you my business. Ill also advise anyone else to stay away. Work on your customer service. Im glad your business is doing so well you dont need paying customers. Thanks for ruining our afternoon.

Review №73

Went to Axis in Corpus Christi in May 2019 for a small piece on my inner wrist/forearm. Place was easy to find, clean and spacious. There was some initial disagreement about the placement of the tattoo as the artist Roy Castillo was concerned that the details of the piece would not show properly. I never felt that he was being disrespectful or dismissive, just giving me his opinion. He also asked me several times during the work if I was okay as apparently wrist tattoos are supposed to hurt more. Matthew who was doing some work in the adjacent booth, also came by several times to see how the tattoo was progressing Piece came out beautifully, healed very well with very minimal scarring.Thanks Roy and Axis Tattoo, from your Caribbean customer.

Review №93

I can only speak for their piercing services. Don’t go to Axis. I had my nose pierced and was initially content with it. But then I got a stress bump on my piercing and decided to check out Phat Tat because the woman who pierced my nose at Axis (Meagan) was not very warm or friendly. After being to Phat Tat for a consult and to let Sammi fix my flawed set up, I wish I had gone to her from the beginning.Turns out Meagan put my ring in the wrong place. She angled it wrong so that a stud doesn’t even lay right... it’s crooked. She put the cheapest imaginable hoop in my nose. And her after-care instructions were poor.But all is right now thanks to Sammi over at Phat Tat.
