Joey has done work on me and many of my friends and the feeling you leave his shop with is pride and satisfaction every time. University ink has apprised some of the cleanest shops with the most rounded artists i have had the pleasure of knowing. I cannot give a higher recommendation to anyone looking for World Class body art than University Ink Tattoo.

I have gotten over 20 tattoos at University Ink from Leanna and Whitney and I cannot say enough good things about this shop! They are professional and incredibly talented artists. The prices are reasonable and they are more than happy to work with you. I will always recommend this shop!!

This place is really great to go to. Its not that expensive. I got my belly button pierced there yesterday and the piercing process was really fast, they just didnt stick with the 4 oclock schedule. But other than that its great .

Alex Perritt is such a talented artist. Ive had 3 of my tattoos done by him and will continue going back. My husband and I actually travel almost 4 hours to get tattooed by him. Very easy going guy, not the typical hardened tattooer that Im used to. Made me feel super at ease and his line work is 👌👌👌👍!!!

I think the mans name who helped us was Joey. He was super kind and personable as well as very clean and quick. His lines are clean. Havent gone to him for anything but script so far, but he did a great job with lettering. Overall great experience. The ladies at the front are very kind as well.

Emily Rahn is a true artist that just also happens to be an expert with a tattoo gun. Her shading, artistic sensibility, and attention to detail combine to make her one of the best in her field that Ive ever had the pleasure to work with.Shes also really nice and has good taste in music. 😊😊

We went to Joey for a personalized tattoo. The tattoo is very unique, with tight lines and detail. I HIGHLY recommend University Ink! Very professional, the staff is friendly, fun to be around, and the place is very clean and comfortable.

If I could give a lower rating, trust me I would. Went in and got my belly button pierced here, after about a week or so of pain anytime I moved in any sort of way I decided to go to my normal piercer (because University Ink was closed). The top part kept trying to embed in my skin, and I was hoping I could figure out what was wrong, anyways got to Lucky 7 in Monroe (they were absolute god sends in this horror show) and spoke with the woman behind the desk. She asked what I had been cleaning it with while I waited for the piercer, showed her the bottle that University Ink sold me and she was appalled. So much show, we took it to the other workers, and they were equally disgusted. It was pure chemicals, to the point that we couldnt even find everything that was in it. Like there wasnt an ingredients list. Also, I was told from Lucky 7 that I was meant to be taking Tylenol to help with the swelling and that I should have been told that to start with, but university ink didnt tell me anything. Anyways, got to the piercer and was told I needed to take it out ASAP. So she did it for me, and we threw the jewelry away because somehow it was already looking gross? It hasnt even been more than 2 weeks so the woman at Lucky 7 was even concerned for the piece of jewelry used. She told me the piercer pierced me wrong, and then she educated me on how to clean for my now wound. She was also extremely concerned that I might need to go to the hospital for the sheer ignorance of the woman who pierced me. They advised me of how long I should wait before getting it pierced again,and everything of the sort. Its had time to heal and now Ive got two scars from the thing. The scars have literally pushed me past the point of anger. Ill never return here, and honestly would advise that no one else does either. Lucky 7 is so much better, and definitely worth the drive. Theyve done almost all my piercings, and from here on our will continue to be the only ones piercing me.

Went to University Ink to get a cartilage (helix) pericing. The employee doing my piercing fiddled with the piercing for about 5-7 mins after puncturing my ear & after that preceded to tell me that the needle “hadn’t gone all the way through”. She then reprieved the same hole, which was very painful, & caused my ear to bleed severely. It also tooo her a significant amount of time to put the ring in my ear. That day i also got two other lobe percibes which went fine until the rings she put in cake out the following day. I bought the saltwater spray to clea my piercings but wasn’t given clear instructions on how to clean the pericing. My cartilage pericing, which i have been cleaning at least 3 times a day had only gotten more irritated & i have now taken the ring out for fear for infection. Poor service but the girl at the front desk was very nice. Would not recommend this place to anyone for a pericing.
