Have had 80% of my facial piercings here. I have had never had a problem from the piercers nor tattoo artists. A tiny shop with a mellow atmosphere, Tinta Maldita has been around Wilmington for awhile now, and locals know about how passionate the guys who work here are. Another plus side is they are very adamant about tattoo/piercing safety, and you’ll learns think or two about what and not to do after you have been needled up.
