Getting a Conch piercing here was absolutely amazing! Nerissa made the experience super easy and stress free.

Huge thanks to Lake Monster for my recent tattoo they did. I had a cover up that I needed done and they were very understanding and compassionate. Greg was very kind and professional and was able to perfectly cover up a name that was haunting me and replace it with something dedicated to my children. Narissa is a doll and always has a sweet tone and smile on her face. This is my second tattoo with them and my 10+ piercing with them and they are ranked high above the rest. Reed is a true artist and my next one I will definitely get on the wait list for him.If in doubt about a tattoo or piercing they are experts and will take care of not only you but your body and wallet as well. Thank you guys for helping me get rid of the last reminder I had of a painful past. You have a life long patron and tahoe local here.

Aside from being very clean a few parking spaces out front with lots of parking in the rear. Everyone there is really nice and helpful... Definitely great artists! And great work! Ive been going for about 3 years and will continue to go there for my ink.

Nerissa! 🖤 Super fun and sweet. Experienced and quick with a soft touch and a lot of knowledge. I appreciate your time and services; it was great working with you and look forward to more of your skilled work in the future 😀👍🏼

Made me feel welcome and comfortable for my first tattoo. Experience was painless with an artistic result at a reasonable price. Thanks Greg!

The artists are kind and fun. A super inviting atmosphere with consistent and high quality work allows me to believe it is the only place for me to get my tattoos done. Thanks!

Everyone was super friendly and everything went by smoothly. The pircer talked me through the whole thing. Over all a great experience. 10/10 would recommend

Greg did an amazing job was scared to get my fist tattoo but Greg made it something I wanna do more of now. Greg was very patient and a genuinely great guy very talented and artistic. Will definitely be getting another tattoo here.

My husband and I have been getting tattooed by Reed for over 1 1/2 years now. He is talented, creative, knowledgeable and friendly. He and his wife Nerissa (who does all the piercings and is also equally awesome) own the shop and have been there for over 15 years. They have become friends and we couldn’t be happier with all of the work we’ve had done. Greg also tattoos in this shop and does a great job as well. Reed and Greg do different styles so between the two of them, they really do cover a large amount of styles. Really can’t go wrong with either one for tattoo work. If you’re looking to get quality work done, this is the place to go! We get so many compliments on our tattoos and always tell our tattoo admirers about Lake Monster!

I was with Greg and I dont sit the best with tattoos we found out but he was so patient and so understanding he did so good with my tattoo!! I showed some Inspo photos and he drew up something so much more beautiful then I even imagined. Cant wait to get my next tattoo there!!

Worst tattoo shop Ive ever been to. We were on vacation and we get tattoos ever vacation apot we go and this was the worst experience s we have had. The artist talked with his boss instead of drawing our tattoo took over and hour and a half to get out tattoo drawn wouldnt give.price til done. Our daughter got blood poisoning from her tattoo artist and they wont do a damn thing about it and has dr proofnirs from the tattoo. I personally have 12 and this was my 13th and it makes me not want to get a tattoo again. Its been 2 weeks since we have been back and pure are still not healing correctly they went way too deep and we have scaring for ever, dont go.here they are the worst tattoo shop ever. Even too!

Great talented artists, I booked an appointment for a sleeve and had a great consultation with Reed. Very excited to get started with him, very professional, polite guy.

Great time with great work.

Got my double, my cartilage and my younger sisters ear pierced here. Very professional and I highly recommend it to everyone thinking about getting any piercings. All my next piercing will happen here.

3rd time here I love it! piercings are amazing too and she is amazing with her customers! Lots of choices to make I will be back...

My friend got a tattoo here. Very professional beautiful tattoo!!

For what you get here, I am extremely happy with their prices. Reed does my work and I love the dude. He is a genuine, down to earth guy just like every other employee at this shop. If youre looking for ink, or piercings, and want a great atmosphere of welcomed people, this is your place to stop in the lake Tahoe area. Keep it up guys! :)

2nd session in. Looking nice!! Love this place

Just got my septum done today! I wouldnt recommend anywhere else in town. Narissa was fast, calming, and sweet. She explained everything thoroughly and simply and really made the experience a positive one. Will be coming back when I get another piercing for sure :)

Had a great time at this shop. The entire staff was super friendly and accommodating, with lots of great tips and info on the Tahoe area. I would love to visit again!

My boyfriend got a tattoo here the same day I had my septum pierced. Amazing experience for us both & some of the friendliest staff Ive ever met! Definitely worth it.

Ive been going here for years. Reed, Nerissa, and Greg are absolutely phenomenal. They are highly skilled, very professional, and the cleanliness of their shop cant be matched. I moved out of Tahoe years ago, and have been driving back to get work done here, as no other place Ive been to compares.

Lake Monster Tattoo is awesome! Definitely the best shop for tattoos or piercings in Tahoe. Ive checked out all the shops in the area (which were all total crap! Dont waste your time!) The work is incredible and the staff is super friendly. I will definitely make the 3.5 hour trip for future work.

This place is always busy, it seems!!! Great customer service, too. Thank you Reed, for the most excellent dragon tattoo! I love it! I waited months to get it done, and its perfect!

Every experience I’ve had with Nerissa, Reed, and Greg has been wonderful. Highly recommend!

Awesome tattoo Lawrence! Highly recommended and I will see you again when I come back west. Hamish or Wallace Thanks You!

Amazing!!!!!!!!! I love Reed and Nuriza, I have a lot of tattoos done by Reed, you cannot go wrong with Lake Monster Tattoo, they are always so clean and personable, best tattoo shop in town

Very friendly staff, Lawrence was awesome! These guys are seriously the best. Will definitely come back here for my next tattoo.

Awesome parlor stopped in for a consultation. Everyone super nice and down to earth. Made appointments for my wife & I. Looking forward to returning!

Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable. Took my daughter to get her nose pierced and she had a great experience!

Such a great place highly professional Im defending going back.

Took my 8 year old here to get her ears pierced. Nerissa was awesome, super friendly, and quick! Highly recommend.

I absolutely loved it Nerissa did my nose piercing and she made me feel super comfortable and the piercing looks amazing

Reed does a really good job on details.

Got my nose pierced back in 2016 and I loved it, it didnt hurt, and super nice.

Nice, clean, very friendly staff, excellent service and awesome artists. I highly recommend this place.

Great artist, great atmosphere, clean, and easy to work with.

Greg did my cover up for me and was more then hospitable when I had a hard time with it... I’ll be back

I am ten years old and got my double piecing done for Christmas at lake monster Nerrissa was very professional and the piecing didnt hurt a bit. When I get my cartilage pierced I will defiantly go back to lake monster. THANK YOU NETTISSA!!!!!!

Reed is so informative, helpful and just amazing! Youd be a fool to go to another tattoo studio in town!

Friendly staff, skilled tattoo artists and piercer, and a decent jewelry selection.

I do not trust anyone else to do my tattoos or piercing. Lake Monster Is by far the best place to go.

Nice friendly staff

Reed does the best work

Awesome and friendly service.

Great. Artists

Great place

Best place ever

Best in South Lake Tahoe!

Friendly and professional!
