Tri-City piercing places? (newbie)

[lildonkey]

Don't have any piercings.. and was wondering what places around here to you guys recommend? I've never had a piercing just because they didn't apeal to me, but now i want one and don't know where to go... when i went with my girlfriend for hers at the port moody one... they had horrible customer service and made us wait 1 hour and then ended up telling us that they can't do it that day anymore..... it seems like they only cared about the people spending a lot on huge tattoos..

Are you talking about Sinister Skin? Cuz...that place rocks. I've known piercer Ryan for a couple years and he's awesome + super nice. I got most of my piercings there and everything turned out great, even got 2 free ones. First complaint I've heard about that place...if that is even the place ur talking about.

[lildonkey]

Yep, that would be the place.

[All!e]

dont go to sinister. serisouly. uck.

[All!e]

oh and dont go to seabreeze either. again, uck.


go downtown and go to sacred heart!

[mugsy]

yeah sinister is baaaaaad. i know of two people that got tattoos there and they didnt get wraped up afterwards... a tattoo is an opened wound, you should bandge it for about 10 hrs... maybe more....

tri-cities would be really hard to find a good place. head downtown. best place i know of is sacred heart in kits. front door lady can be a bit bitchy, but the service is great and are always ready to answer questions and so on.

Sacred Heart Tattoo is the shit man!! I don't remember who on FnK said Lindsey is the shit, so i decided to pay him a visit on boxing day and got my nipples pierced. He's really nice and good. He's kinda fruity but that's alright. I'm not sexist. And i just got my septum re-pierced. He works at the Nelson location on Wed,Thurs and Fri. If you don't want to wait till those days, go to www.sacredhearttattoo.ca and click on Lindsey and it'll show you his schedule. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!! If you want to stick to the tri-cities area, go to Fat City Piercings down at 12th Street. Ryan will help you out. Don't go to the wrong one though, cause next door is the Fat City Tattoo and they only do tattoos there.
Good Luck!

^^ Opps!! 12th Street, New West.

mugsy - The front lady at the Nelson location is damn friendly and helpful. Her name's Tannice. She's so nice that I gave her a $5 after getting my septum pierced. She looked so happy, she even asked me why I'm giving her a tip. Well, she works just as hard as the tattoo artists and piercers there so she derserves it.
