Blue Scarab Tattoos and Body Piercings

Walked in to get a nose piercing on the fly....The lady who helped me fill out papers, etc. was very friendly.  Mike was about 20 min. late, no biggie, I was nervous as hell anyway, so it gave me time to settle whatever contents I had  left in my tummy....Mike was very patient....thank goodness he had a sense of humor......So, if you want to get your nose speared, head on over to Blue Scarab Tattoos!

I came here to get a nose piercing. I came on a weekday and only one other person was waiting. But I still had a bit of a wait. But only because the piercer wasn't in yet. But that's my fault, I should've checked before hand.

The girl at the counter was nice. No 'tude. She even came back to the room at one point for support since I came alone. But by then, the process was basically over. I still appreciated the gesture though.

The actual piercing went fine.

The only problem I had was when I came back to them to change out the jewelry.. I had gotten a stud at first, and when I came back, I wanted a hoop. But I was told that that wasn't possible, because they didn't pierce me with the possibility of having different types of jewelry. (Which I have discovered to be false. When I got my nose repierced, I got it done in the exact same place, and I have a hoop now) So, I ended getting another stud. But this eventually pushed itself out because it had no back. I don't know why I let them talk me into that one. Once it fell out, I just left it out..

Anyway, at the time of the piercing, everything went smoothly enough. It was just the afterwards I had issues with..

We went to Las Vegas for our sons 21st birthday and there was Tattoo Expo at Mandalay Bay so we decided to check it out. I am so glad I did! We met Keith and crew and loved them! Keith does GREAT work and I have gotten more compliments on my tattoo. He is by far the best tattoo artist I have came across. He did my whole tatt free hand and it is incredible!! Looks like the next time I need some work done I will be flying out to Maryland from CA. Keith, if you are reading this....you ROCK buddy!!
