Report
Had three piercings done here- two with Chance and one with Matthew. Both are very professional and I felt safe with both of them. Relatively high prices- but I do not at all regret spending the bit extra for the service I've received, as all three piercings were placed perfectly and are healing very well so far. Far cheaper to get it done right the first time than have to return for re-piercing in the future. Highly recommend for any piercing needs. Will be returning for several more in future.

This is the only place I go for my piercing and tattoo needs. Their staff are knowledgeable, friendly, and occasionally hilarious. The quality of their work is great. They offer high quality jewelry, and don't try to sell you anything you're not looking for. Just fantastic overall.

I went there on new year's eve to get a tattoo. Found my design. Called them for a walk-in and got there the same day. I got my tattoo done in about an hour. I felt welcomed by the reception lady and the tattoo artist April did a great job getting the design onto my arm. Great experience. Would recommend.

Had my first ever tattoo at The Fall. My artist was Duygu. The facility was very clean and I was well taken care of from start to finish. My tattoo is absolutely exquisite and I could not have been more impressed with my experience. Duygu was warm and friendly, and she made my first tattoo experience an amazing one.
