    Carrie did a great job with conch piercings in both of my ears. The store is very clean, and she is super professional and knowledgeable. She also had a wide selection of rings and changed out my four helix piercings for me. One of my best experiences, and I have nine other piercings. Will absolutely come here for future piercing needs. Cannot recommend highly enough.

    I have a total of 16 tattoos, 14 of which I got at Physical Graffiti (my first, and last 13). Recently the owner Paul has been tattooing me, and let me say not only does he do great work (as you can see in the pics), but his methods will assure you that it is one of a kind. After each tattoo done he takes the image, stamps it sold out, and he will never put it on anyone again. In addition, he will listen and come up with stuff if you want him to do a custom design…with events going on in my life, I was telling him I was looking for a tattoo to symbolize my new journey in life, gave him some time, and he came up with the “good luck,” idea tailored to my story and journey, with a eye looking to the future and one looking at the past from where I came. In addition he adds the little details free handed to make it that much more personal, if you look on the bass guitar of the one tattoo, he freehanded my old cover band’s initials on there, as well as matching up the blue to the bass I used to play when in the band. The work is exceptional, and quality, that said, remember you get what you pay for, and have to expect that some work takes time and money. The Purple Monster took about 4 hours in the chair, but it was worth every minute, and every penny! When it comes to tattoos the value is in the quality and longevity of the artwork, the color on my oldest tattoos still show the same without any fading or damage after 6 years. Physical Graffiti is a clean, family run shop. It’s casual feel always makes you feel welcome. I will always go back. In addition know that whatever you decide on getting, they are honest, and knowledgeable, trust me when I say that Paul has kept me from making some poor choices with ink, weather it be size, or just a design in general. Tattoos are an expensive hobby, but when you get work like this done you get the assurance of something that you won’t regret…as someone who is into tattoos, I’ve seen some that have been butchered because people choose the cheapest, remember like I said earlier, you get what you pay for, so Do It Right, and choose Physical Graffiti

    I went in to have my ears re-pierced. Carrie was absolutely wonderful! She was super friendly and awesome! She's well informed on the aftercare and explains it clearly. Once my first set is healed, I will be making plans to return for my second set. Also the Mastiff picture was very cute. 15/10!

    Carrie is so unbelievably nice and skilled at piercing. Before coming I was really nervous to get the piercing but they really did a great job of calming me down and in the end it even felt painless because of how good the atmosphere was. I had even come back because one of the balls on my septum piercing fell off (embarrassing, sorry about that) and I didn't know how to get it back on and Carrie was willing to help every step of the way. They had also supplied me with instructions to clean and supplies. Amazing service all the way through and I will be back again eventually.

    I came here with my mom to get lobe piercings and Carrie took such great care of us! Will definitely be coming back for future piercings with Carrie! :)

    I have been going to Physical Graffiti since I was 18, I am now 25 and have received (7+) piercings through the years. 1) In 2018, I received a double helix piercing. One of the piercings was put on too tightly by Carrie and as a result of being new to piercings, I had to remove the piercing because swollen, tender, and with poor blood circulation. I kept the 1 healed helix. 2) I received a jewelry replacement (only) for the 1 healed helix piercing that was pierced with a 20g (I'm assuming because it's small) and wanted a simple jewelry change.When I went in, Carrie jammed a 16g piercing into the hole. I believed the initial discomfort was from never having changed the original cute diamond stud but after 2 weeks, it didn't settle so I took it out. This was in December 2022. Since then, the "healed" helix has had intermittent pain, redness, and tenderness since the incident with Carrie having been agitated by the "stretching" of the piercing by the large gauge. Before this, my helix was so comfortable I'd forget that I had it. I do not believe that Carrie is a bad piercer, but I do believe that she is hasty. This could be due to her many years of piercing and knowledge, but no professional is above checking-in with their client and not rushing services.

    Mixed feelings. Came here for a piercing. Maybe Carrie was having a bad day?? Not super friendly and a tad rude. Not really hard to be nice when the customer is paying for a service after all. And NO PHOTOS ALLOWED. WHATS THE POINT!! Took the excitement out of the whole experience. The piercing is cute though which is why I'm giving 2 stars. Update: amending to 1 star for the unbelievable reply. Not even sure who this artist is referring to but they have the wrong person and should not be judgemental towards children.

    Got belly piercing today and I absolutely loved it! My piercer, Carrie, was great and made the entire process so comfortable!! Definitely would recommend this shop and I’ll definitely be coming back to get some ear piercings. I’m excited for my current piercing to heal!!

    Carrie, the piercer, is FANTASTIC. She gives such great personal attention to each customer. She's gentle, careful, intentional, and definitely knows what she's doing! A piercing virtuoso! I wouldn't go anywhere else!

    Went in for a Medusa piercing. Everyone in there was great! Paul was funny and very helpful. Carrie was amazing… so sweet and very knowledgeable. My lip is healing very nicely and I’m planning my next trip soon! Clean shop, full of staff that has tons of experience, and it shows. Would def recommend.

    Love this place! I arrive and there were 4 people waiting for piercings before me. I only waited 30 minutes! Carrie is quick. The piercing barely hurt, the price was more than fair and I was sent home with a cleaning kit. Would definitely go back. 10/10

    Carrie is the absolute best. Her honesty and expert knowledge is unmatched. Two days after getting two cartilage piercings from her and I have zero swelling, zero pain, and perfect healing. She gives you a goodie bag with aftercare so you don't have to worry about a thing. Looking forward to more piercings with Carrie, as she is the only person I trust. Don't shop around for a piercing/tattoo shop- physical graffiti is the best in the business :)

    I just had my septum pierced by Carrie it was super quick nearly painless and she was super professional the whole time. this had been my first piercing in a very long time and I felt completely at ease. I will 100% highly recommend her to any of my friends looking to get a piercing!

  • 5/5 Jenna Z. 1 year ago on Google
    I’ve been going to Carrie for years for all my piercings (I have many lol) and she truly is the best. The shop is clean and welcoming and Carrie is a great piercer; she walks you though the process before, during, after and educates you on what to expect after the piercing and provides you with free aftercare products!! 1000/10 recommend!
