Reviews of Vermont Custom Tattoo and Piercing

Alyssa Shaw

Justin is an incredible artist and person, I highly highly recommend them! I had a tattoo done today and they absolutely killed it! Not to mention how kind and personable they are! Pricing is super reasonable and respond time was super quick! Go to Justin, you won’t regret it!!

I drove 6 hours from Maine to get my first tattoos here and was not let down. It was an amazing experience. Justin is a great artist and was so friendly and helpful. Everything came out perfect and I could not be happier! They even got me in 30 minutes earlier than my appointment! Definitely recommend!

I had a vertical hood piercing done here about 10 years ago and it started to migrate so the piercer (I don't recall it being Julie) removed it and waited for it to heal and repierced it (at no additional cost to me). I still have it and had no issues with healing. She was as gentle as she could be during the process. Recently I had a triple helix piercing done out of state but I lost a few balls. I went in today and Julie hooked me up! She ended up replacing 7 pieces of jewelry in my ears and she was extremely gentle as well. Julie is very personable and great to talk to. Once her arm is healed and she can pierce again I am definitely going back for another piercing and this will be the only place I go from now on. Thanks so much!

Ellie Dombrowski

I got piercing done here and it was super great! Really clean and professional

Evan Eleck

Extremely nice staff. The shop was clean and felt like a safe place. Very happy with my first tattoos!

Lily Merchant

Julie is awesome and even came to visit me at my work days after my piercing just because she’s so sweet! Super fast appointment and inexpensive ear piercings. Been there twice now for multiple piercings and can’t wait to go back. My brother also got three tattoos there and loves them!

Claire P

Got my septum pierced here and it won't heal, I've been told it was pierced in the wrong spot. Disappointing and additionally the piercer also pierced my friends septum but hers was placed correctly and healed well. Just seems like there are some inconsistencies in her work but I'm hoping to return over summer and get help with mine as the women was very nice and professional.

Charlotte Gehan

I got a tattoo from Mary and had an excellent time! The tattoo was across my ribs and the entire process was absolutely lovely. Mary was super understanding of my initial issues deciding a font, and reassured me of her proficiency in small details which she definitely delivered on. She was extremely light handed and absolutely prioritized my privacy and comfort, which was incredible. Overall, the vibe in the shop was super accepting. I would totally recommend Mary as a tattoo artist, though all the art I saw in the shop was incredibly cool and creative. I also got pierced by Julie a few months prior, which went awesome as well. Vermont Custom is my go-to for tattoos and piercings!

Beck Brandal

Highly recommend this place for piercings ! Julie was phenomenal with my septum, my girlfriends nipple piercings and my best friends labret and nose piercing! She did them so smoothly and was very calm when we were super nervous. She told us that we can always call her if we have any questions and if we wanted to get any of our piercings changed she was more than happy to do that for us. She made sure we knew how long it will take for them to heel and how to clean them. I will be going back for any piercings I want in the future.

Jessica Hamel

I brought my daughter in last night for her first tattoo. They had a cancellation and allowed me to get one too. Joe was really nice and very professional. He made the whole experience very special since we decided to get matching tattoos...She also got her tongue pierced while we were there and Julie was wonderful, very quick and gentle. We will definitely be back.

Windsor Smith

Got my nose pierced here and a tattoo done by Justin. He is a PHENOMENAL artist and has such reasonable prices. I'm in love with my tattoo. He works super quickly and has incredible linework. Never going anywhere else for a tattoo!!

Audrey Rodriguez

Fantastic shop with a great atmosphere! Each time I’ve gone has been a good experience. Most recently, I got a small tattoo done by Mary, and I’m absolutely obsessed with it. She helped me coming up with the design, and it came out exactly how I pictured it. It’s only been a few days but it’s already healing well and looks amazing. Love this shop, will definitely be getting more tattoos done here.

Bailey Alvarado

They were so professional and clean. And they made sure all customers were safe and wearing masks. Julie was the best, she walked me through the process of getting my nose piercings. Im definitely returning for future piercings. I highly recommend Julie.

Sarah Pierce

Had the most amazing experience at Vermont Custom Tattoo this evening. It was very clean and everyone was so welcoming. We had the pleasure of working with Mary for my Son’s first tattoo and mine. She was amazing. Mary is very talented and the tattoos she did on us were above and beyond our expectations! Very talented and highly recommended her.

Kenan Elkaz

Came in early for my appointment at Noon. Communication was amazing, I talked to my artist Justin via email and they handled precautions for covid-19 very professionally keeping under 10 people in the shop at all times. Everything was cleaned constantly tools and work space included. Friendly conversation all around. You could tell this group of people really enjoy their jobs and working with each other. Will be back for future tattoos seeing as my touch up and tattoo came out beautifully. Best shop in Burlington hands down.

Kyra Sinclair

I came in to get two small tattoos, one in my moms handwriting on my forearm and a small Gemini symbol behind my ear for my brother. I had Justin! He was kind and gentle and made me feel very comfortable with placing it and it was pretty much painless. Pain level 4/10 so fabulous job Justin!! I love my tattoos and would highly recommend this shop🙂

Vanessa Swann

It’s been years since I had gotten a piercing about 15years. Julie was absolutely amazing so understanding and very patient with me. She even checked my earring gage when I asked her if she could let me know what it was, also checked if my belly ring was still open.

Taylor Gartland

I've gotten 2 tattoos and 1 piercing here and I won't go anywhere else! the staff is amazing and friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing and so clean! I'm at a high risk of infection so I'm always super nervous about both tattoos and piercings but I have never had a problem with the work done here. I went back to have my nose checked because I had a small reaction and they looked at it and talked me through everything. So great!!

Jewels Vermont

Wonderful experience! We went in for three people getting piercings totaling five actual piercings. They do walk ins for piercings so we figured we would have to wait at least an hour to be seen but we only waited 10 minutes which was wonderful! She had all three of us done and out the door in less then thirty minutes! Very clean and sterile atmosphere and equipment! I will definitely be returning here for any future piercings or tattoos!

Stephanie Menard

I highly recommend Vermont Custom Tattoo And Piercing. The staff is very Friendly, Professional and attentive to detail. This is the only place I brought my Daughter for all of her Ear piercings. The owner is amazing! He told my Daughter that she can earn a free piercing of her choice if she gets straight A's (and possibly a few B's) on her report card! Great Incentive For Students to Do Better Academically!

Lee Kyler

My wife and I each got a tattoo. Justin was super professional, kind, and did phenomenal work - just exactly what we wanted. We look forward to returning to him again soon!

Robyn Kent

After five tattoos here and a couple of piercings here, I am finally writing a review! Everyone I have dealt with has been amazing. Super friendly, everything in the studio is clean, organised and everyone is welcoming and puts you right at ease. The real star of the show is Joe who has done all of my tattoos. He just gets it. No matter how big or how small the tattoo or how vague and weird your design he spends the time to get the artwork right and makes the process of getting the tattoo as... I won't go so far as painless, but as near as he can manage. I won't go anywhere else to get work done. It's not always a given that your tattoo artist cares just as much about your tattoo (now and what it'll end up looking like in ten or twenty years) as you do, but every hour I spend with Joe proves that he really does. Cannot speak more highly of this place!

Katherine Yoder

Julie has done all of my body piercings - from nips to septum and plenty in between - over the last 15 or so years, starting when she was back at Body Art. It's always a comfort to be welcomed with a smile and the comfortable, relaxed atmosphere of the shop. Never had a single issue with any of my piercings healing properly and Julie is always my first recommendation to friends looking for a little body bling.

Julia Bamford

My partner has gotten all of his piercings done here (tongue, dermal, and industrial), and they all have turned out great. I went in last week for a cartilage piercing and my piercer, Hunter, was amazing. Very friendly, and quick with the needle! I plan on coming back in the future.

Joshua Trinidad

Very friendly, professional staff. Very happy with my piercing! Thank you!

Jenna Kate

Julie - thank you for the easiest piercing experience! I can’t wait tell all of my friends to get their piercings from you! Love always, Led Zeppelin girl from Atlanta ❤️

Marjorie Brown

Joe Demers was absolutely amazing, such a delight to meet a great person and fantastic artist. Julie has done many of my piercings and always delivered with the best service imaginable. Joe will be my go to tattoo artist from now on. Great place

Valerie Thurston

Mary is incredibly talented. I wanted to cover a forearm tattoo and she drew a custom design for me. I just got finished with a two hour session with her. She was focused and creative, and she was sensitive to how I was doing. I highly recommend her and Vermont Custom Tattoo in general!

Effie Davis

It was awesome! She did the piercings quick and as painless as possible. We were informed about every aspect of the tatto before getting it. She even told us what is best to take care of it and could sell it to you right there. I got my Daith piercings here and love them. Only one complaint... on ear is a little different angled than the other but that was cause by an awkward angle. Other than that they are amazing. Going there for my future piercings!!

Luna Crowley

I'm not even sure where to start with how positive of an experience my sister and I had with Mary. There was a miscommunication about scheduling and to make it work, Mary came in 2 hours before the shop techincally opened to give my sister and I our tattoos. Moreover, she is so kind, willing, and clearly loves and is very talented at what she does. I personally have 3 other rather large tattoos and I told Mary that I could have fallen asleep while she was tatting me. She is light handed, quick, and creates crisp beautiful work. My sister and I had been looking for the right artist for our tattoo for around a year, and when we found Mary, we knew it was right. Will absolutely be coming back to Mary for more work, and ten fold reccomend her for anyone looking to get scripture tattoos.

Aaliyah Nelson

I got my nose pierced and the piercer, Julie, made me feel very comfortable and was very professional. I haven’t had any problems and it healed very well! i highly recommend.

Jenna Thweatt

Very helpful and ready to answer any questions you may have! My wife got a tattoo (her first!) and was understandablely nervous. They are there to help anyone who may get a little jittery/woozy/light-headed. You can also really tell they are a tight-knit group that function well together. It's a great place to get a tattoo or piercing!

G B

Absolutely great experience! Mary did 4 tattoos on 3 people. 2 “first tattoos” for one person. The pricing was very reasonable. Highly recommend this shop and I will definitely return for Mary to do more.

Caitlin Orton

I have NEVER had a bad experience in this awesome shop! Julie has done several of m piercings and I'm always so so so happy about them! She's super sweet and super fun and she will make you feel so comfortable!!! Keep rocking Julie!!!

Daviah Lawrence

I’ve been to other tattoo shops but this one keeps me coming back! I have gotten 5 tattoos there and plan on getting more. Great customer service and everyone made sure I felt welcomed. It was clean and the artist (Joe) was professional. Itching to be back in that chair!

Daniel Correia

Justin tattooed me a few days ago. Super quick qork for a QUALITY tattoo. He informed me on detailed care for the tattoo as it heals. Even told me he would like to see it after healing to make sure I'm satisfied with it. Great work and atmosphere all around.

Cassidy Peck

My sister and I went in to get cartilage piercings I was a little hesitant at first, but Julie was able to answer all my questions I had. When it came down to the piercing, one deep breath and it was over, she was quick and talked me through what she was doing the whole time. Would definitely go back to her for more piercings!

Kasey Mize

Decided to get some piercings during our girls weekend to Burlington! So glad we chose Vermont Custom! Professional, friendly, quick and cared about the quality of work. Really made us feel comfortable as well! Thanks!!

Dayle Sargeant

I have gone to Vermont custom for all my tattoos and piercings and would not go any place else. I recommend them to anyone looking to get something done. Everyone is so great at what they do. It does not matter if you are getting a huge detailed tattoo or a simple outline. Your experience is going to be great and so is your new body art.

Chantelle Fisher-McKone

I had my first ever tattoo done at Vermont Custom Tattoos with Joe Demers. It was a wonderful experience. The shop was professional and clean. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful even from when I first called for a consult. Joe Demers is an amazing artist and I absolutely love my tattoo. He took time with me before to make sure I was comfortable with the whole process down to the aftercare of the tattoo. Then made sure I was completely happy with the design (he designed a tattoo of my mountain bike!!) and placement of the tattoo. If I get another tattoo I will definitely have him do it!

Austin Chagnon

I've gotten both of my tattoos done here by Mary, and she does very beautiful work! Also Julie is a piercing genius! Highly recommend!

Ann Eckler

Wonderful 1st piercing for our 11 year old daughter! Staff was welcoming, kind and patient. Shop was very well kept and inviting. Thank you for a fantastic experience :) We will definitely be back!

Ashton Leach

I got my nose pierced here and couldn't have had a better experience! The staff was extremely kind, making sure the placement was where I wanted, and afterwards even gave me recommendations on places to visit while in Burlington. Studio was small, but very welcoming!

Jenn R

Love, love, love this place! Joe does an amazing job on tattoos. Joe, Julie, Justin and Mary are very personable, courteous and friendly. Highly recommend coming here.

Jonathan DeDell

Joe was phenomenal! Great to work with, professional, and an absolute beast of an artist! Blew me away with his complete control of color and shading. This is my second piece done by this shop and I know I will be back for more! Well worth my 2 hour drive for some of, if not, the best work in VT!

Gabrielle Hebert

The best piercing place in Burlington! Great atmosphere, friendly workers, and very clean! Julie is very knowledgable and is great with clients. I got my rook and tragus pierced here and will definitely be coming back for more.

Julie is incredible, the only lady I allow to pierce me now:) I've had my tragus, nipple, and rook pierced here and would never think to go anyplace else

My husband and I went to see Joe about a tattoo we wanted to commemorate our marriage. He used our words & ideas to create the most gorgeous piece of art that I am psyched to show off forever. Thanks Joe! We will be back!!!

Shelly T

This was a spur of the moment decision as we were visiting from out of town. Justin took care of us. He was very polite and professional.

Becky Solomon
