Reviews of Screaming Needle Tattoo & Body Piercing Studios
I got my nose and ears pierced here, and had such a great experience I came back for a tattoo! All were great, Andrew did my piercings, he was calm and relaxed which helped me. A lot of people said in reviews he needed better bedside manner, but I thought he was great. Quick and easy, got in and out. Jeff did a tattoo of my two dogs, and worked so hard on the design and his linework was great, he was fun to talk to while he worked and did a great job. Would def recommend!
We had such a great experience! It's the best place to get your tattoo let alone your first one. They are so supportive, patient and caring. Skott did an amazing job with anything that was thrown at him and adjusting the concept to making it perfect!
I got two piercings on my ear. Receptionist was fabulous! She was so nice and welcoming. Andrew the guy who did my piercings was pretty "cold" he didn't really talk me through what he was doing. Didn't ask how I felt just kind of shoved the needle in and that's it. He did a great job, just needs to work on "bedside manner"
Update: both of my piercings rejected. Which I have never had happen before
I didn't get to fill out a form at the front desk so I'm just going to put it on this. First of all, I got my double helix piercings here back in September and had a pretty good experience. The place was super clean and I decided to come back here for my eyebrow and tragus. I haven't had any problems with them and again had an amazing experience. I had Jonny pierce me and he did an amazing job. I will definitely be coming back again.
First off, Andrew is the man.
I went here a week ago with my sister, who had previously gotten piercings from him. The 2 for $30 deal is a steal. Andrew was very informative, quick & personable throughout the entire experience.
Also, he has a portrait in his office of him chillin, smokin a pipe, (not in an egotistical manner) & idk why but it added to the experience 🤣
My first time getting a piercing. Was told they provide the ear rings. They only had two options: one orb shape but a bigger diameter rod which was not recommend by the worker, or small diamond faced option. I chose the diamond option and since they can’t be take out for 4-6 weeks to heal, I’ve been snagging them on all my clothes, and pillows and it’s causing a great deal of pain. Would love to see a small orb option so this doesn’t happen when I’m sleeping or changing shirts.
My 9 year old daughter just had her ears pierced at screaming needle on Plainfield and it was LITERALLY the best experience any of my kids or myself have ever had!! He did so h a fast easy pain free job and my daughter was worried for nothing ..I would never go anywhere else for another piercing and I would recommend them to everyone!!!
Scott turned my tatto into reality. I walked in with A picture and told him what I wanted to change about it and Scott nailed it. I will definitely be going back.
Lovely job with the piercings! With proper care I’ve always had a smooth healing process from all the piercings I’ve had here! Quick and efficient setup that covers all the information you need and gets it done fast. Always helpful with any issues that popped up afterwards. My go too for any peircing.
Toast did my tattoo today and I’m so happy with how it turned out. Very clean and nice environment in the tattoo shop. Get some good laughs aswell. I will definitely be coming back to him to get my leg tattoo done .
Had both of my nips done and Andrew was FANTASTIC! Be prepared for a long wait on Tuesdays because of their two for one deal. And watch out for teenage girls who can’t tell the difference between silver and diamonds.
Younger guy who did my 4 piercings (two lower and 2 helix) did it super quick, super efficiently. I barely felt them and I have a low pain tolerance. Thank you sm!!
I've gone there 2 different times for the 2 for $30. Each time I have had great experiences. The receptionist were amazing. The artist did an amazing job. He was patient and very kind.
Got my first tattoo here. Receptionist was friendly and Shane put my anxiety at ease. Very thorough and professional. Tattoo looks great!
Went for the Tuesday special and I am absolutely thrilled! Everything was running smoothly and was clean and nice Andrew was quick and kind. I will definitely be returning for sure!
Andrew did an amazing job with my piercing. I was nervous as I’m prone to fainting, but it was easy and pain free.
so professional and well done here! i will continue to only trust them with my piercings
Got some piercings done, and they were quick, comforting, and professional and they answered all questions and concerns along with directions on how to care for the new piercings
Absolutely very welcoming! I've been here for piercings and just recently a tattoo. Front desk is also very friendly, and very detailed.
Tattoo artist are very realistic and honest. If something won't work they'll let you know. They're also cheap for their service. I 100% recommend for anyone who wants to get something done on a whim.
Very clean and friendly environment! Their artists and very talented. I only go to Screaming Needle for all my piercings and tattoos. They also have really good BOGO deals on Tuesday’s! I highly recommend ☺️
I normally go to art n soul in Kalamazoo. But they are not doing any oral piercings at the moment. I drove an hour and thirty mins one way to go to this establishment. I have a few critics. I went in for my Ashley piercing. I called the day before and was given the basic info cost ,jewelry option and up charge for gems etc. I went in on a Wednesday around 3:30 they weren’t to busy. No to the critics. 1. I paid before service. 2. Wasn’t able to leave a tip on a card. 3. None of the employees were wearing masks. 4. I did not get to see placement prior to piercing. 5. I did not get to see piercing after done. 6. No prep Andrew was very nice good vibe but there was no counting no breathing nothing. So I left shaking. 7. I know lip piercings are supposed to swell but mine did immediately and my lip is swallowing the jewelry. I have no idea what gauge was used and I didn’t see any set up. 8. I wanted to do the up charge and get a gem bar but I didn’t get the option to choose my jewelry. In total I have 14 piercings and 5 tattoos so I am not new to the game. I probably won’t go back to this establishment due to my experience. The studio was clean and well lit and the staff was friendly but my experience wasn’t great. The pictures are day 2.
Got my first tattoo after 21 years here a few weeks ago. Turned out great. Skot is an awesome artist! Will definitely be coming back for more work. The entire process was great. They were quick to get me in for a consult and had appointment times available within the next week.
Another great experience at Screaming Needle! Everyone was very kind and professional, and I love the way my piercings came out! Very quick and mostly painless! 10/10 recommend!
Andrew is hands down the best! My previous piercer charged more and did a terrible job that all of my piercings rejected. Andrew has done all of my current piercings and I definitely plan on going back for more. They are clean and kind!
Lainey was super kind on the phone and in person with my questions. Piercer Andrew was also very kind and explained everything well, including after care and upon request rechecked my piercing to assure me it was as it should be! So appreciative, highly recommend 😊 …
Toast was amazing and did a fantastic job on this memorial piece for my little sister. I would 100% recommend Toast as an artist for anyone looking to get a tattoo done. This is it fully healed.
Friendly staff, somewhat long waiting time but a very swift service.
Incredible experience!! Walked in and immediately was greeted by the most friendly lady. Basically zero wait time, Andrew was super helpful because I was indecisive as to what side to do what. Got my nose and tragus pierced - no pain and I was in & out in no time! A mom and her two little girls were leaving as I got there and no tears from either one after getting their ears pierced. Highly recommend Screaming Needle and Andrew in particular!!
Impulse tat with a close friend of mine that I worked with. We couldn't find a place with an opening and I called this location and was told to drop in and maybe we could be squeezed in. Turned out the appt that was originally scheduled never showed, or had the wrong date.....whatever the reason we were able to get right in.
Toast was awesome, real easy to talk to, very down to earth. Absolutely loved the experience.
I went here for the first time a couple months ago. I got a second nostril piercing and the jewelry switched out on the first one. I then went back later to get my daith and conch pierced, and my industrial jewelry changed.
Andrew was amazing both times. Sure, he doesn’t chat you up, but I am not a chatty person by nature and I found his mannerisms comforting. He was self-assured and I trusted him instantly.
I’d recommend him 110%. He knows what he’s doing and doesn’t waste time. I’ll come back time and time again. :)
I got my first tattoo from Cori and she is amazing!!! So light-handed and made my experience so awesome. I will definitely go to her whenever I need something done!! Love her!
I went in for the 2 for 30 deal on Tuesday to get my helix and tragus pierced! It was a professional, sanitary, and safe environment, and the staff at the front desk were fast, informative, and precise! Andrew, the piercer, was ready immediately, and he got it all done within 5 minutes! Very fast, efficient, and talented! Of course, there were a lot of people there due to the great Tuesday deal, but they visibly went through customers at a timely manner! Thank you for the new piercings-- I'll be coming again soon!
I have went to the Plainfield location three times now during the 2 for 30$ piercing deal on Tuesday. Andrew is a really nice person, but over time, the more I have educated myself on piercings and piercing etiquette the more I realized how many things are done wrong.
I have gotten a forward helix, conch, two helix, and a septum and side of nose piercing there. The septum is the only one that has healed okay. I got three of my piercings pierced with hoops, and every one got a bump or got infected and split skin. If a piercing shop offers hoops as an option for a first piercing, they most likely don’t know what they’re doing, or only offer it because it’s a popular option. They pierce with the wrong jewelry a good 85% of the time. Two of my piercings got infected because I had a butterfly back earring put in my outer cartilage, which is horrible for so many reasons, and a lip stud put in my forward helix that I can’t get it out, it’s super infected so I have to go somewhere else to get it taken care of. One of my helix piercings was pierced crooked. To be honest, it’s not at all unsanitary, it’s just they mess up so bad with using cheap jewelry and the wrong type of jewelry. Also I feel like they should not have the 2 for 30 because they only have one piercer, no one else, and he does probably 50-100 piercings just on Tuesday. That’s too much stress on one person, and probably why he messes up sometimes, I would too if I was in his position. It’s severely understaffed and it shows.
Maggs did my tattoo today and was professional and gave me the best !!! i will return the best!!!!
Absolutely love my new tattoo! I went to a different tattoo shop before this and they did not want to work with me or my design. The two ladies at the front wanted to help and figure out my design / get me in for the tattoo the same day!
The woman with colored hair was gorgeous I went in for my bridge piercing I really wish I got her number
I went in with my 16 year old daughter to get her nostril pierced. We got there right when they opened but they were already very busy. Despite that, the ladies at the front desk were awesome and got us our paperwork and on the list very quickly. We only waited about 15 minutes total and the staff member that did her piercing was very nice and professional. Would definitely go back.
The people there have always been so nice to me and the piercings are always done super quick. They definitely know what they're doing. The only thing is that it seems like they put my septum a little too high but I also know nothing about septums.
All my tattoos been done by Archie, he is the best.
Great environment. Megan was amazing and sweet handling everything up front. I've had 2 tattoo appointments done with Eden and both experiences made me excited to schedule more. Incredible work. I'll definitely be returning in the future.
Toast is awesome. I tell everyone to go to him and he is an awesome artist. All the staff there is super friendly!
Andrew is hands down the best there is. He is beyond talented at what he does and makes you feel so comfortable about any piercing you are getting. He is absolutely the only person I trust with my piercings.
We had our girls ears pierced and they were great! We were told first come first serve for piercings, but we were in and out in an hour. I'm glad I called ahead because they ask for a birth certificate for minors and I wouldn't have thought to bring them.
Friendly staff. Experienced artist good at getting your design out of your head and onto your body!
i went here to get my second ear piercing two days ago and the service was amazing. the lady that pierced my ears was Zarah and she was very nice and calming and talked me through the process. it was only $50 which isn’t bad for the good quality. i’m definitely going again to get my nose pierced
Great experience. Highly talented artists here who can translate what you want into a masterpiece that you can have forever. Love em
Nate was my tattoo artist. This was my first tattoo and he made sure I was comfortable and okay at every step. He kept talking to me thru every step and I'm so grateful for it
Got my septum done by Andrew and it was great! He was efficient and knew exactly what he was doing so I felt comfortable. I was in and out in 10 minutes. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for piercings.
Archie is the best artist in this place, he takes his time and doesn't take all your money, great service, fair prices, privacy for those intimate tatts
I did the 2 for $30 twice for my 3rd lobe, rook and helix. It went great pretty painless but it was a very fast setting and more of a "I'm here to do a job and get it done" so it felt very unpersonal and rushed but it was Tuesday and they have the deal so maybe they were just trying to get through everyone
Got my nose done today and it was affordable, quick, and easy. I recommend going close to when they open. Sometimes they get really busy after 3 or so. Chris B did my piercing and was very welcoming and kind. The front desk workers were kind as well. Clean environment.
Went Saturday night they were kind of busy but got me in (walk in) in a timely manner. Super professional and friendly staff. I got my nipples and nose pierced and Andrew made the whole experience comfortable for me. Definitely recommend and would go back. Thank you guys for being awesome!
Took my 11 month old today. First - they take children under 1. Second - Extremely clean and professional staff. The gentleman who pierced my daughter's ear was very cool, patient and was very good to work with. Did a walk in and it was very fast. I would HIGHLY recommend this place. Again clean, friendly and fast. $50 for my daughter's ears. Not to bad
My best friend and I got matching tattoos here and they are perfect! So cute, I was so happy. Cori did our tattoos and she was seriously the best, made us feel super comfortable, and we had fun getting them. Will definitely come here again!
I've learning to love my imperfections and Screaming Needle (Andrew) made that a possibility! I have a deviated septum and have been searching for the perfect place to get it done. It was an awesome and clean environment. I will definitely be going there for any piercings I get in the future!
Honestly the cleanest, professional place. Will continue to have them be my piercing peeps! They are great! The guy I have had each time, is friendly and very good. Go see these guys!!
There’s not a single bad thing I can say about this place. First time getting a tattoo from here and I was impressed they took me in super fast on Halloween which tends to be super busy I’m sure and I was just a walk in. Cori did amazing beautiful work and all in a timely fashion she was easy to work with and helped customize my tattoo she was very kind and I connected well with her and the other staff i felt very at home ,welcome and comfortable will recommend 10/10 and will request Cori again they were also very clean and followed all protocol for a safe environment love love LOVE THIS PLACE
My daughter and I went in together. She got her septum pierced, and I got a horizontal eyebrow piercing. Both great experiences. Andrew was amazing friendly, polite, professional, knowledgeable!
Needed some surgical grade earrings to replace a set I lost. The staff was helpful in removing my current jewelry and installing my new set, and the price was very reasonable. Had to wait a while, but not terrible for a walk-in.
Very professional and quick and clean. Walked in on Tuesday night got the 2 for $30 special and enjoying them. Andrew is very understanding and talks you through everything love both piercings thank you
I got my nose and doubles (ears) pierced here. My piercer wasn’t super friendly maybe just a bad day but I was nervous so it didn’t really help that he didn’t talk much. He marked my ears but didn’t let me check to see if I liked it. They are a bit uneven but with certain earrings it’s not as bad. He also didn’t mark my nose he just went right into it with a needle. It is in a good spot but I would’ve liked to approve it first. The bad thing about my nose piercing is that it was red for a very long time and when the redness died down, a keloid appeared. I haven’t been able to get rid of it since it got here. I’ve tried many things such as the cleaner that they sell, sea salt water, etc... I’m not sure if it’s the jewelry or something but I’m not impressed with that.
Everyone there is super nice are careful and caring. Always feel welcome and is a safe clean place. Great prices and work. Mike D has done all my work and will continue to be my artist until one of us quits!
Clean, friendly, and very professional! First experience ever walking into a piercing or tattoo business. My daughter had her nose pierced, they were very thorough about paperwork and procedures.
We were just in and got small tattoos and everything was explained and they made sure everything was perfect and just the way we wanted! So happy with our experience! We will definitely be back!!
The facility was clean; however, the person at the front desk was somewhat friendly but seemed clueless to all our questions. The piercer (Andrew) was friendly upon greeting us but his overall personality was dry and rude. I was a little nervous and tried making a little humor and he was just dry. My daughter also received a piercing as well and her experience and feelings were the same. Because of his bedside manor we chose NOT to leave him a tip. I called the next day (Andrew answered the phone) w/ a question regarding my piercing and his tone and words were the EXACT same dry/rude.
My cheek piercings are crooked and so is my septum piercing that I got done there but the service was nice two of the four piercings I got are healing well. My cheeks on the other hand are irritated and acting up
Very professional and very nice. I recommend Skot! He does incredible work!
So clean! They are amazing. So professional. I was so impressed. The whole experience was fast and it was probably the best piercing experience of my life. I will be coming back! Thanks, everyone. 😌🤗 …
Tattoo and my kids is very happy with the work Scott did, thank you so much Scott for make his first experience really good.
Very friendly staff and very clean place! They open up the needles in front of you as well as being very attentive for your needs. I got Chris who did an amazing job and I love my tattoo! I can honestly say I had a prime first experience
Ask for Dom....he did a beautiful job and is very enjoyable to talk to!
I got my septum pierced here and had no complications, but recently got nipple piercings. I came in for a consultation because my left piercing is pierced partly through the areola. Andrew said it was just swelling and I was being "nit-picky." Of course I'm nit-picky about my piercings not being the same! It's very disappointing that I'm going to have to take my piercing out and get it repierced instead of getting it correctly done the first time.
They made me feel very comfortable. I walked in there pretty indecisive and I left feeling confident about my decision with which tattoo I wanted. The tattoo artist did a great job & was compassionate with helping me relax and get it done as fast as possible. I really enjoyed my experience there.
I got my tattoo over a, year ago great and best place to go very friendly and they made my tattoo my own style going be going there soon get my daughter name and to hearts symbols my kids
I went there and got my snake bite lip piercings on July 6th with my boyfriend. It was quick and professional. Very clean. Definetly my favorite shop in Grand Rapids for tattoos and piercings
Toast did an awesome job on my tattoo, very happy with it!
Got my nose pierced here. Great place. Very friendly and professional. Everything was clean and sterile. Would highly recommend.
They were fast, efficient and super nice to all of their customers. Andrew was my piercer, and he made me feel comfortable and confident. Highly recommend this place
First tattoo experience: They have a friendly and inviting staff. The sketch reflected exactly what I wanted (it's a custom only shop.) I was told that I could come back in for touch ups, which I did. I'm happy with the final results.
Just took my daughter in for her septum and nose piercing for her birthday. Andrew was very professional and made it easy for her. Thanks for the good service!
Nice updates. However IF you know your having a "great sale" bringing in a receptionist would be wise! I'm 100% sure you could ask for a volunteer for trade in a piercing. :)
I had a great experience getting my first tattoo here. Mike D helped create a custom design. It turned out more awesome and beautiful than I could have imagined. Will likely be back for more and highly recommend Mike D.
I've seen this places work and it's clean with excellent attention to detail ! Plus the owner Mike is a stand up guy.
My piercer was very nice and professional. They even quoted my tattoo while I got pierced. 2ed time I've gone to them, and will go again. High recommendation
Jeff did an awesome job. Everyone here is great and knows how to treat people.
Wonderful experience. The artists here are incredible and very fair. Love my tattoos! I worked specifically with Nate for my tattoos. He is an incredible artist, friendly, and fair with pricing and touch ups.
My best friend and I got our tattoos here and they turned out great! We both walked in and got each a small tattoo on our ankle from Jeff. Everything was amazing and clean and would highly recommend the artist.
Got a tat yesterday and i am more than impressed, its 100% better than i could have ever expected. My plan is to sleeve both arms and i know for sure ill be back to see joey very soon. I highly recommend this location. Friendly staff and always very professional. a pleasure to do business with. Not much else to say. This place rocks !
Really like this place I highly recommend it. When it comes getting piercing here they really do care about the clients health never once been dissapdisapp in the work. I like the way Makayla does her peircing. Best places I have ever been
Awesome experience every time. The only place I'll ever get pierced or tatted.
I decided to get my first Tattoo finally and came here based on very positive recommendations. The place was very clean and presentable. The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. Dom did an AWESOME job at making me feel comfortable and I have received compliments from everyone. I will definitely be going back for my next one and highly recommend this location.
I have had several tattoos done here my last three have been done by Miss Cori. A very talented artist with a light touch. I highly recommend this is establishment and Miss Cori as your artist.
Very friendly and o showed them what I wanted and they made it lot better then. Copy I showed them and they make u feel comfortable too I would say first tattoo go here
Had my nose pierced here for the umpteenth time. I always choose Screaming Needle because the shop is very clean, the staff is professional, and their piercing prices are very reasonable.
Both of my daughters have gotten multiple piercings there. The shop is clean and the staff are nice.
Went here for my first tattoo, and came back for a second! They were knowledgable, and friendly, and were very open and helpful with my design! I've had the tattoos now for about a year, and they look just as good as the day I got them!
Clean place nice atmosphere I think I was in there a total of under 10 minutes to get my nose pierced
Even though it was busy still got my 2 peircing in decent time. I got snake bites and they look sooooo good. I am extactic. They look beautiful 😍 💗! …
I went here for my second tatto per recommendation and I was able to just walk in and get it done. Staff was helpful and the shop was very clean and professional. Jeff was my artist and he did an amazing job, and was able to get it done quickly. I highly recommend this shop and Jeff.
The staff was really nice. The guy who did (I don't remember his name) my piercings was informative and kind. I'd definitely go back for more piercings.
Got my septum pierced today by Andrew, it was really quick and didn't hurt too bad! 10/10 would reccomend :)
Andrew helped put me at ease after I told him I was anxious. The whole piercing process went extremely smooth. I would go back to him in a heartbeat! Thank you so much!
Writing a new review as the general manager reached out and happily fixed my tattoo Ryan messed up. The outcome this time around was MUCH better. 🙂 Thanks Chris …
I went here I like this place, very friendly,fast. Butt... I got my angel bites done here and one is pierced lower. Like its very noticeable. I kinda like it but sometimes I wish it was straight. Going back for belly and septum
Just got a new tattoo and have been to several places but this by far was best great service friendly and reasonably priced this is my new tattoo shop DOM did an amazing job on my tat i absolutely love it thx
This place is the best! Kevin did several piercings for me today and I have to say he is the best I’ve ever gone to. It was the smooth and as close to pain free as you can get.
I’ve gone to Kevin at the Allendale location for almost of my piercings, and he’s great! He’s professional, especially when you’re getting intimidating piercings. He’s great, I don’t think I’ll ever go anywhere else as long as I live around here!
These people are always so professional! I've been through twice for different piercings and they take extreme caution dealing with each client! Thanks y'all!
The manager is an outstanding guy and gave me and my brother a free tattoo for our experience. I will definitely be getting my next tattoo from Screaming Needle. Amazing customer service.
Great service and value. I feel that they are a safe place for tattoos and piercings.
Love everything about this business. Great people. Only reason it's 4 stars is because I've had a couple crooked piercings. Besides that, all good things.
Scott did an AMAZING job with our tattoos! As silly as these seem, the memories tied along with them mean a lot to us, and they turned out better than we could have hoped. Thank you!!
Screaming needle is the best place to go. Everyone in my family, even my friends, and I go there ALL the time. They are so clean, very professional, and have talented artists and piercers :) wouldn’t want them to change a thing.
Awesome experience from walking in the door and being treated great by Bubbles, the girl at the front. Got us worked in to get our ink and worked with us and our artist to make sure everything was what we wanted and it worked! Then we went back into a squeaky clean studio and sat while Toast did his magic. Great personalities and amazing artists. We highly recommend this place and will go back again for sure! Thank you!
Archie was awesome! Came into town for work. Walked in and was in the chair within 15 min and the finished piece was exactly what I wanted. The staff was very personable as well. Great experience. Highly recommended
Quick, professional, quality work. I walked in for a septum piercing and was in and out in like 10 mins. Andrew was great!
The staff vary friendly. This is the only place ill get my piercings at. Had no issues with them
I went here for my first tattoo and I do not regret it! The staff are down to earth, helpful, professional, and really make you feel welcomed. Stephanie (front desk) was amazing and I was so thankful for her wise, honest opinion. Scott did my tattoo and he was friendly, funny, super experienced in his work, and did an awesome job!
*note that they probably only do walk ins so at times they can be busy and you just have to be patient and understanding
Best place in town to get a tattoo! Staff is very friendly, the artists crack jokes and conversant, keeping things fun while doing a tattoo. Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the work. Definitely recommend if your looking to get quality tattoos!
Friendly staff they're very helpful when you have questions.
Their piercers know what they're doing and are very quick.
I've never had a tattoo done here but I can speak for anyone wanting to get a piercing here. If you want one go here. They're fast, friendly and will help you with any questions or concerns.
(I've gotten 8 piercings here)
The staff was wonderful, welcoming and extremely helpful. I had two piercings done. The environment was clean and sterile. The piercer was great and it didn’t really hurt too bad!
This has always been the best shop I've been at. Even the older crew was amazing. I haven't had anymore done since the last one I got a few years back. They always hired the best artists. I know the originals are gone since then, so i know they wouldn't have left it to a crew any less talented then they are
Got my septum and belly button done here on the two for Tuesday special with my cousin. The staff friendly and very clean and professional. I can’t say anything about the tattoos cause I’ve never gotten one there, but it’s a great place to get piercings.
The past two times I've been here for my piercings I've had nothing but positive experiences. The staff are super friendly and welcoming and the environment is clean. Their 2 for 30$ deal on Tuesdays is great and the walk-in service is super convenient. Screaming Needle definitely stands out from other shops and I strongly recommend.
The wife and I got tattoos on the inside of our left middle fingers. It was an awesome experience and we'll never regret getting our tats from Screaming Needle. The artist that did our work stayed after for a bit just to do our tattoos. Great place.
Been here a few times for both tattoos and piercings. Staff is always professional. And it's one of the cleanest tattoo shops I've ever been in.
Came in with a group of three for a Walk-In and got in immediately, awesome service, great tattoos at very reasonable prices!
Just got my second tattoo here. Awesome staff to include the artists I've had.
Andrew is a skilled, knowledgeable, and professional piercer. I would recommend him any day!
Excellent customer service. They were all extremely nice and it was super quick!
Loved it. Very clean and friendly. While i was waiting the lady at the desk was awesome and very chatty. Awesome all the way around. Keep up the amazing work team!
Laid-back but professional. Ink looks great. And I have a tattoo on a difficult location on some fragile skin. And he did a wonderful job. I would definitely recommend them.
The piercer here is the best i been going for a long time and would never switch! Hes gente and will be completely honest about anything hes great! Thank you
I have gone here for my helix, tragus, rook, and anti-tragus piercings, and the service is so quick! It's awesome! This is my piercing place now! ☺️
Had my back dimples pierced here. Good price and they healed nice. Have the guy pierce you
I got a few piercings and they were SO knowledgeable and super nice! Everything was very clean and the staff was amazing! 10/10 recommend!
Went in for the two fit $30 piercing deal. Front desk lady was nice and helpful. The piercer seem knowledgeable and was pretty quick. Gave some background on the piercing my wife was getting. Overall took about 10 minutes to get in and out
I went to get a piercing fixed, and Andrew was great! only charged me for the jewelry. I've gotten other piercings here, and a tattoo. wonderful place, with a great atmosphere!
Got multiple piercings here and had a great expieriance! The staff is super friendly, especially when you're a little nervous!! Also the prices are phenominal!
Best tattoo I've ever gotten I'm beyond elated with Jerry's work and would highly recommend him to anyone on the fence.
I had a super experience ! Nate is a expert at his art! I told him I was also thinking of a arrow design next. I'm ready in about a week & will be giving him a call. Can't wait!✌🏻️ …
I got my dermal done here and it was my 2nd dermal in the same spot. It's been 4 months and it healed so well I would recommend this place to anyone! Clean, she explained in detail the process before hand and how to care for it after. Very pleased.
Best Tattoo shop in town!!! Very clean with great artists
i got my nose pierced here by andrew. he did a good job with the piercing, it healed well and everything too. but the people there aren’t overly friendly in my opinion. i felt really out of place here and the environment wasn’t super welcoming. andrew wasn’t very friendly and said maybe 5 words to me the whole time. i don’t expect a full on conversation or anything but maybe just ease the tension and nervousness, ya know? and i am really afraid of needles as well, so when he was doing it i did my best not to move but i was almost shaking, and when he got the needle in my nose, i let out a deep breath and a laugh because i was relieved it was over, and he was just kinda rude towards the fact that i was nervous. getting a piercing is a exciting and nerve wracking experience and you want to feel comfortable when getting it done, and i didn’t feel very comfortable here. they do good work but i think they should improve the environment and make it more friendly.
Extremely fast service. I'm a newb so I was pleasantly surprised that the piercing room was like an exam room. Had no qualms about the place whatsoever.
Andrew was my piercer, he was very nice & he made me very comfortable. I got my medusa & septum pierced & the piercings went very quick and weren't as painful. 😊 …
The amount of detail and care that they put into my piece left me in awe. Thank you so much guys! I will definitely be back.
Amazing artist and staff. They do awesome work. Definitely have a customer for life!
Very clean and friendly. The man who pierced my daughter's ears made us both feel very comfortable and he did a great job.
I got my doubles (ears) pierced here for the first time, and I had a great experience. I loved the staff, and the environment. The reason why it's a four instead of a five is because my piercings did come somewhat uneven, but I wanted to get the process over quick, so I didn't check before he pierced. It personally doesn't bother me, but for the future, I will definitely double check.
Very clean, inviting (not intimidating), SUPER friendly & knowledgeable staff. I had 2 rook piercings done, I will definitely be returning for my nxt piercings.
Andrew pierced my daughter's septum and he was gentle. Bring your birth certificate if u r 16
I got my first piercing yesterday. (My navel) and it was a very pleasent experience. Staff were all very nice and willing to help. The young man who actually did my piercing was very quick, and overall it was virtually painless. It was very cheap for the piercing and the crystal ring. Very pleased with Screaming Needle and very happy with my beautiful piercing!
I got my nose pierced here and it was so quick and didn't hurt at all.
The man who did my piercing was very friendly, funny and alone made it worth it.
When their for a piercing change. They were great! Quick and simple, would definitely recommend.
I went there to get my ears pierced but there piercing lady said that she had a special tool to tey be for redoing them and it worked and she is the most knowledgable person I have gone to and will always go to she knows her stuff and is really nice and explains things well
My daughter got her nose pierced here. They were professional and clean.
Toast was absolutely FABULOUS! I'm so pleased with my new ink! He took my idea and totally made it work beautifully! Already planning my next one!
I got a piercing here and it got infected right away even though I kept it clean, but for tattoos they're amazing
Friendly fast and clean. Went with my girl today to get pierced by Andrew. He was prepared Nd didnt try to rush you out the door.
I got my nose done here. The staff was very nice and I have had no problems with my nose piercing!!
I have got most of my piercings done here! They are quick and do a great job!!!
I’ve had all 15 piercings done here and I never had a problem. Andrew is fantastic at what he does
Very fast and easy. Piercing done perfectly!!
Septum and it was fast and clean i was more worried than anything they was so nice and very gentle will be back
Best place in all of Michigan to get wicked awesome ink. Archie,Andrew,and everyone there are super professional and bar none the best artist around
Thank you Mike for all your employees and atmosphere at SCREAMING NEEDLE TATTOO.
Got in for an appointment fast, price was kind of steep but good work all together.
I've had a couple tattoos done,had a piercing done,then my daughter's 18 birthday she got her first tattoo.All of my tats are amazing,and my daughter is ready for number two..thanks to u the artists and staff..Oh and prices unbearable. Tip them big,they've earned it
Always impressed!
Joey does all of my tattoos (currently working on a full leg) & he is always honest about what he thinks would look good, look better or wouldn't really fit with my theme.
People are very nice & professional.
I've been here twice now for piercings and had a great experience both times! I would definitely recommend them.
First time being there it was a whole new world ......Lol Andrew is the man I thought I was gonna die....didn't show it... I stuck it to the man and got my nose pierced!!! 😎😂 …
Super professional and charismatic. All the artists make you feel comfortable and are all very talented. Ask as many questions as you need and they'll never make you feel silly about it (like some places can).
I've gotten a tattoo and 2 piercings from Screaming Needle and they're very clean and professional. They do a great job
Just got a tattoo today from Cori. She is great I will be coming back to see her. Amazing work....
The best studio. It's clean the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. Andrew is the best piercer.
Me and my mom had great service from Archie! He gave us the best mother daughter tattoos! Also the receptionist, Stephanie, is the SWEETEST!! We felt very welcomed! Thanks for everything, guys. We'll be back, for sure!
Andrew is an amazing piercer. The wait was a little long (it was a two for Tuesday of course) but the nose and belly button piercing took like max 2 minutes and I was out.
Andrew is the best! Thanks for a quick & educational piercing experience.
Got a Billie Eilish tattoo and i’m in love!
Had some decent tattoos done here.
Great customer service and great with people I hope to go back there again sometime soon
They definitely have some of the best artists in town! Thank you T Bone (Terry Johnson) for the great art!
I love the work they do and I always been happy to go there and get me a tattoo 🤠😂😂 …
My tattoo was very detailed and done really well and fast on sensitive skin, very professional
Nice place. Sterilization of equipment. I had work done here as well as two of my kids.
Not a creepy tattoo shop like some places I have been. Clean and bright inside the shop. My sister and I went to get piercings and Andrew did a great job. You saw him wipe down everything before and after use, and was very easy to talk to.
I also have gotten a tattoo here. Joey did my tattoo and did a awesome job! Black and gray rose and I receive compliments on it on a daily basis. He was friendly and put up with me even when I was starting to wimp out out of the tattoo.He gives great input to ensure that you get a sweet tattoo. Pretty much will only be going to screaming needle for my tattoos and piercings.
I walked in today without an appointment after having an unpleasant experience at another place. First, Ashton at the front desk was amazing making sure that we got exactly what we wanted. She was so helpful and great to work with. Dom did my actual work and he did an amazing job. He also was professional but also super easy going and fun. The tattoo looks amazing. Terry worked on my brother and his tattoo also came out amazing. We will come back again and request both of them. From my previous experience of dating someone who owned a shop and knowing the rules and regulations....they are spot on with it all. If you are looking for a clean, fun, professional place that does amazing work look no further. It takes a lot to really impress me and I was super impressed.
All heald well I got 2 piercings 2 tattoos from them love it
Definitely ask for Kevin for your next piercing! He did an amazing job and was so calming and friendly during the process!
I stopped in to inquire about touching up my semi colon and have a little added around it, and they were very prompt at getting me in, and my artist, is truly an artist, as he free handed a heart around my semi colon. I was surprised by the extras he added, and am completely happy with how this turned out! It is more beautiful than I even imagined ! Thanks Archie!
Had my 8 months old ears pierced here. They did very well all things considered.
Very very happy with my new tattoo! Definitely recommend them for ink work and will be back for more!
Andrew pierced my 11 mos old, very patient, professional and moved quick! Great experience!!
Did the two piercings for $30. They got us in quickly and were kind and efficient
I haven't had any work done here recently but just wanted to leave a comment about how helpful and sweet Ashton is! I worked with her on ordering some custom jewlwery and her suggestions and assistance has been great. She's kept me updated every step of the way and is a great communicator. Looking forward to doing more business with her. :)
Andrew and Tabatha were super nice, and Andrew was 1000% most professional piercer we have ever dealt with
Andrew is a good piercer but just so everyone knows not everything is going to be perfect because you flinch. It's not his fault. And tell him where you would like it to be placed he will do his best.
The place is pretty chill. Fast, friendly. Shout out to Chris, thx for the R. E. B 💚 …
I got 2 tattoos done by Jeff and the entire staff is friendly and all the artist there do excellent work
Always a GREAT experience. Inside screaming needle is sooooooooo clean and inviting. I go there often for piercings and Andrew at the Plainfield location is so professional yet fun. I recommend Screaming Needle to anyone that asks about my piercings, and will always go there.
Had a double helix piercing. Andrew did an awesome job. Highly recommend Screaming Needle.
One wild week I still have one piercing though love the guy that did them he was so fast
Great place and great people! Got tattoo #3 from Joey great armband!! Got #4 from Little Mike (he did a Zelda Arm piece in bronze ink) Had to have that one touched up (for free) He wouldnt even take a tip for my touch up!! Going back in the next few days for tat #5 (FF10 tat) going to try to get Joey again! Great customer service and great work from people who really care what their customers think! I TELL EVERYONE to get work done here!
Didn't get a tattoo here my friend did, they did a good job.
perfect! i’m and out and nice staff!
Quick and friendly, clean. Would go for another piercing if I decided to get more.
Archie fixed/covered an old tattoo for me a while back and I had two piercings done by Andrew. I can't express how happy I am with both experiences! Archie is one hell of an artist and Andrew works quick and efficiently, which in my opinion is best when you're getting pierced. The receptionists are always a joy to talk to as well! You guys have a great thing going! Thank you so much!
Screaming Needle never fails to impress! Toast does awesome tattoos! Mother and daughter matching tattoos 😍 💕 …
Very clean place and nice staff. Would definitely recommend
I've got my septum, bridge and tounge done their! Always have done a great job!
Beautiful work they do there for tattoos I already have three tattoos from this place everything is perfect
Great service and great tattoo artists.
Dom did a cover up that is absolutely beautiful. Exactly what I wanted. I felt very comfortable with Dom and impressed with the artists ability to create something I'm proud of.
I had an amazing experience! Andrew was so nice and helpful. I've never felt so comfortable and relaxed
Great service, friendly staff, and they're willing to work with anything!
Got my belly button pierced here, the people were very friendly and it's a very nice environment
Clean and professional for getting my 5-year-old's ears pierced!
Only inquired about a cover up tattoo but seemed clean just took a long time for them to get to my questions
Awesome place, very clean, and they are all very friendly!! The only place I will go.

I really like my piercings but Andrew, the one who pierced me, was not very personable.
I don't believe I am at risk for any of the hepatitis here. Highly recommended
Dom did a great job on our two tattoos! thank you!
Shout out to Terry!! My mother recently passed away so I wanted a tattoo to always remind me of her! I chose a tiny hummingbird behind my ear (she loved hummingbirds). He tattooed the most beautiful hummingbird, I had tears in my eyes!! Super amazing Artist!! Thanks again, Terry!!!
Out of town truck driver, uber took me...I have lots of schedule...got.my ears.done...I will with out a doubt be back
Andrew was a great piercer and very nice.
Very professional and smooth process. Andrew was amazing and patient.
Love the atmosphere, but some of the staff at the Plainfield location have a tendency to come off as rude or condescending which made me feel kind of uncomfortable. But I will say that Ashton, who works behind the front desk, is wonderful, SUPER helpful, and willing to answer any questions you have. If anything, she made me feel better about being there.
They were all amazing. I can't wait to go back.
Had tattoo work and pierced here. Great place to visit and have work done
Cool people and they gave me exactly what I wanted! Very clean and professional as well!
