Tony's Tattoos & Body Piercing

Honestly , this was a horrible experience. I went in with my Boyfriend to get a tattoo , his first tattoo but I I have a few already . As we walked in this guy barely acknowledges us then finally after maybe 15 minutes decides to ask why I'm there . After the whole run down my boyfriend got a tattoo simple looks ok line works not that great but ok, fine . Now for my tattoo I wanted a tiny rocket with a few stars around it , maybe the size of a quarter, very simple I have several other tattoos much more complex which came out exactly how I wanted . I literally emailed him my tattoo I wanted which he proceeded to print out and stenciled exactly that on me . Never once did he say he would not be able to do it the same or anything like that so I believed it would look exactly like what he stenciled on me . Well I was wrong when he finished the tattoo which he clearly rushed Because other people walked in I was horrified . The line work looks like a two year old did it. It is so shaky and there's random dots and lines where he just dragged the needle when it shoul have been lifted and things missing . When I told him I was unhappy he says I have to come back tomorrow cause he is busy. So whatever I come back the next day and say how unhappy I am and he Barely even looks at my tattoo . He had the original picture there and was holding it yet wouldn't look at mine which was missing things and not straight and just a mess . He tried saying that he's not a copy machine and I don't expect that but don't stencil something on someone that you are not capable of doing . He laughs in my face the whole time then when I brought up the messy line work he said I was moving which did not happen at all and then he tried blaming it on the position I was in which he told me to sit in that position and I would have kindly repositioned if he asked . Tony was my artist . I am most upset about how he put what I wanted on me when testing placement then tattooed something that looks like he tattooed it with his eyes closed on me and also I'm very unhappy how he treated me when I told him how upset I was with the work he put on me , I don't appreciate being laughed at when he put a permanent embarrassment on me . For your own sake do not get a tattoo from him. Clearly he's okay with his name being on this tattoo

Review: I went to Tony's Tattoos & Body Piercing to have the jewelry in my nose piercing changed. The "professional piercer" who changed my jewelry did not follow sanitization procedures--he did not wash his hands before applying gloves; he did not clean the area of the piercing; he used a tool that was taken from a drawer and was in no way sanitized; and he inserted a piece of jewelry that was also stored loosely in the same drawer, and which was not contained in any protective packaging whatsoever. The service he agreed to provide was to remove the jewelry I had in and to replace it with a new item I purchased. However, when he removed my jewelry he did so improperly, and sent a piece of it flying across the room. He inserted the new piece and returned the remaining half of my original ring to me. I asked him where the other piece was, and he said it was lost. I asked him to find it, but he did not. He was unprepared to handle this type of jewelry and attempted to blame me for his having lost it. I reminded him that it was my property and asked him how he would attempt to rectify the situation. He began to raise his voice at me, and then threw the money he had charged for this service on the table towards me. I felt threatened and tried to speak up for myself, asking what he could do to replace it. He continued yelling and cursing at me, and demanded I leave in foul language. At this point I was afraid that he would physically assault me, so I hurried out of the store. On my way out he continued to insult and curse at me.Desired Settlement: I would like Tony's Tattoos & Body Piercing to replace my lost jewelry with an exact replica, or to refund me for its cost in full.
