Epic Tattoo and Body Piercing

Just went here for the first time two days ago for a lip piercing. I’ve never had any piercings done besides 3 in each ear and those were all done at the mall, so this was a big (pleasant) change.
On the outside, it doesn’t look like much but inside it’s a really nice, comfortable atmosphere. I was helped by Dan immediately and he told me everything, and I mean everything, that’s associated with my piercing.
He kept me comfortable and relaxed the whole time which is definitely something I didn’t expect from anywhere. It made the whole procedure a lot less painful and the most important part was that the place was clean, including the needles and jewelry used in piercing.
I can’t say anything about the tattoos as I haven’t had the opportunity to have one done, but I can’t wait to and I’ve already heard great things about the artist there.
Also, I’d say the prices are just right. It was only $ 25 to get my lip pierced, which is a lot lower than the price at other places in the area that I was actually kind of scared to go to.
In summary, it’s a great place and I can’t wait to go back for more.

If someone is going to stick a needle into my skin over and over and permanently draw a design on my body, I better trust them to do it right and do it well.
And I think that’s the best thing I can say about Epic Tattoo and Body Piercing in Davenport. They do it right and they do it well.
Tattoo artist — and I mean artist very literally — Aaron Schmidt is as good as they come. He cares about his work. He will take time to sit with you — as he’s done twice with me — to come up with a completely original design that is exactly to your specifications. Besides that, he can also offer suggestions to make your tattoo look better.
Additionally, he knows how to make you comfortable as he works. Let’s get one thing straight — you get a tattoo, it’s going to hurt a bit. And the couple tattoos Aaron has done on me have been fairly painful. But he knows that different people respond differently to it and adapts to make sure you’re comfortable, whether it’s by keeping you talking or just plowing through quickly to get it over with.
Piercer/​owner Dan Bruce makes sure his shop is clean and welcoming. While I’ve not had the pleasure of being pierced by him, he seems to know what he’s doing and in watching him work, I’ve seen him take every precaution he possibly could.
One con — sort of. They’re a bit pricey. That said, I figure with tattoos and piercings, you pay for quality. And the quality here is great.
Long story short, if you’re thinking about getting some ink or a piece of metal shoved through your body, this is the place to do it.
