This place is the best place to get piercings at. I got my nipples done here last week by Ricardo and thought I had a problem with one. Today I came back to address it. And Ian helped me out with getting a bigger bar in for it to heal better. On top of great service and prices, LGBTQ+ friendly is a big plus! 100/10 would come back for more piercings!

Great tattoos and great people! Good prices and can tatt any style. I would definitely recommend

Nice piercer, felt very comfortable getting my nipple pierced here. He was very helpful with our questions about previous piercings and advice on aftercare.

Came here to get my daith pierced, and I’m so glad I did! The shop is very clean, and everyone there is very professional. The piercer (I’m so sorry I forgot your name) was super sweet and fun to talk to. He gave me the option of choosing to have a curved barbell or horseshoe ring (as you can see in the photo, I chose the ring). And it only cost me $35 (before tip)!!!!!! I’m still mind blown, that is SUCH a good price compared to other places. If I ever need another piercing I am DEFINITELY coming back here.

Awesome place. Staff is cool & friendly. Id recommend getting your tattoos there.

Great artist work here. Definitely check it out. Had several tattoos done here.

I got my septum done there right? It was a little later at night and there were quite a few people there but that didnt bother me. Anyways the guy who did my septum was super friendly. He took his time, didnt rush anything. He let me pick out either the hoop or the bullring. When I was all finished it wasnt crooked or anything and it wasnt excessively bleeding. Ive had it for a few weeks now and it looks really nice :) The price made sense so no problems there either.

Fantastic...Dons didnt even even answer their phone...these dudes were pleasant and had me on ma way in a jiffy...outstanding!

I had gone before to get my nose done he was very good at piercing it and about 4 weeks ago I got my tongue done

Came here to get my monroe and they didnt even ask if it was okay if the trainee pierced me. He pierced it crooked and even asked the owner if it looked okay after.....

These people know their stuff, Ive gotten 3 piercings here so far and each time was seemless. They are thorough with explaining and answering any questions I had and I would absolutely recommend this to any one of my friends/family. Thanks guys!

Nice people. Good pricing

From the terrible customer service at the consultation to the non-professionalism of the artists when trying to communicate with them. I had an all around bad experience with this shop.

My two friends went there and one of them got the other side of her nose peirced and it’s been bleeding from inside and out and they didn’t go over any cleaning instructions. my other friend got her tongue pierced and they as well did not go over cleaning and healing procedures.

Great prices, clean and professional!

Love this place Rick and his team is wonderful and do really good work the tattoos are cool and the piercings are great they have very good customer service

I got my nose pierced here, and had a great experience! The whole process took about twenty minutes from the time I walked in to the time I walked out. I was well informed about post-piercing procedures and very pleased with the kindness of my piercer.

I got my nose pierced here 2 months ago and it healed beautifully! the studio is super clean and the piercer was very professional. I just returned to get my triples on my earlobes today. definitely would recommend!

Everyone was very nice and informative. Special thanks to Darnell. I finally got not just my 1st tattoo but 2nd one to. Im very happy with my anime tattoos. ^_^

TC was great. Thank you. I love it!!!

An excellent place to paint your skin from the feet to the head.

I got my first tattoo here & it came out so good i love it so much! he did a rly great job on it & im definitely coming back for my next tattoos

Chill af. Good prices. Love it. 🤘💋🖤

Luis was amazing! Also the guy that did an ear piercing was awesome too!! Thanks guys!!

Heard about a special they were running which was $25/each for any piercing over a week time span. Went late around 9pm, the line was long but the employee doing the piercings was really efficient and quick. He made the process extremely smooth and comfortable. I would definitely recommend going back for more. I was also able to take a look at some of the art work of the tattoo artists and may go back to get some ink.

There a lot of people that go there so be prepared to for the line but its worth the wait

Helped my Daughter out really fast

I cant say enough good things about this shop. Always very professional.

By far the best piercing place !! I got both my doubles and triples pierced and the guy who did them was super nice and gentle. I had a small issue with one of them but he made sure to fix it and that I was 100% happy with the piercings. Can’t recommend this place enough!!!

Clean place, great art. A friend of mine got his inner forearm tattooed here and it looks stunning. Personally I just got my ear pierced here, was in and out in maybe 7 minutes. Very professional and impressive.

Omg just wanted to say how amazed I was in getting my 1st tattoo. Luis did an excellent job, he took his time an explain to me the process before he began so I can be aware, I showed him what I wanted and he helped create my idea into a master piece. The pain of a tattoo for what I got wasnt painful in a scale from 1-10 and ten being the worst I say for me one and if you ever had kids believe me you got this. The atmosphere of the place is really welcoming and very professional and clean honestly I was amazed. I highly recommend this place definitely going back and highly recommend Luis.

Very friendly staff very clean.

Friendly busy shop with great artists

Clean shop, with a professional and friendly staff. Super happy with my tattoo, thanks again!

They got tattoo removal services. They use VanishNow which is non laser. Wish they accepted credit cards.

Great place. Staff is very friendly and gentle. Great prices. No wait times

I got my nose pierced by Ricky, who was very nice and it was quick and painless. My two friends got tattoos done by Stefano & Darny who were very nice. We talked and laughed and they made us feel very comfortable with the whole process. Amazing work, and amazing artists. Definitely recommend going there for any tattoo/piercings!!!

I got two tattoos here both done by Luis. Very professional and kind! Also got a Medusa piercing that went very smooth. Tattoos are healing well. Glad I came here! Will definitely be back.

It was a great place to get my first tattoo they really have clean line work and they really make you comfortable

The guys there were very nice! The piercer was very friendly and personable (but not in a creepy way). He did a great job at making me feel relaxed. When I left they gave me a fun calendar and pen. I havent gotten any of my tattoos done there but I am definitely considering it!

Ive gotten several tattoos from almost every artist that creates art here and I have ZERO complaints about any of them!Brainstorming ideas and seeing it come to life on paper is nothing short of easy for these guys to do! The tattoo process itself is always as comfortable as they can make it. Very well kept studio and professional artists here at Chi- Town Effects!

Got a Tattoo from Jesse he did a nice job, and was very easy going and funny to talk to. The environment and Atmosphere has good vibes would definitely recommend this place! Thanks Chi-Town Effects!

Went to get an industrial piercing. Not only did the piercer not make me feel comfortable, I asked him to wait until I took a deep breath and could pierce on the exhale. Which he did not do. Then also pierced the hole on the top way too far back. It was very close to my scalp and whenever I put glasses on, it would rest right on the piercing, which irritated it over and over. He also pierced the industrial way too high on the ear, where a lot of the barbell extended from each side. Ive had issues with them and piercings before, this is the last time Ill ever go there for piercings.

Most professional, knowledgeable tattoo shop I have ever been to. Very friendly staff, every artist has their own tattoo style which to me is a plus. I definitely recommend this place, Ricky is my guy he is very talented! He specializes in realistic black and grey work, he is also an award winning artist!!!

I got my septum pierced here about a month ago and I love it! The piercer was very nice and very helpful when it came to answering questions. He did a great job and it healed painlessly and perfectly.

Darnell, is a great guy and awesome at his work and art. My buddy and I came in from dinner last night because being veterans we love tattoos on a whim, not only did darnell do perfect work he made each tattoo look amazing! He has a customer for life right here!

I love love this place will definitely recommend. The people there are really nice and friendly and do an amazing job

I got my nose pierced here December 18th. Was really nervous but he kept me calm and it was really fast. Definitely coming back and would recommend. Didnt hurt at all.

Ive been bringing my daughters here for many years for nose and bellybutton piercings. This place is sanitary. We have always been well informed on the after care procedures and had products available to purchase to care for piercings.

Best tattoo shop in town!! Ive done tattoos and piercings had no problem with any of them. I always recommend this shop to everyone. Thanks Rick for your awesome job 😁

Very great place, staff was friendly, got in and out just getting pierced, and was a reasonable price and professional

Money mike does amazing work. These guys all are awesome. Had many tattoos done here and will keep going back. Totally satsifed.

Darnell did a great job on my sister and my tattoos last night.Great artists and super friendlyWill be coming back again!

Friendly and professional staff. Went to get my neices nose pierced and my sons ear and they did good to put them at ease. Recommend.

Piercer extremely helpful and professional! Will always recommend this shop

Rick the owner and every member of his staff are highly qualified they are a blast to be around easy to talk to joke around with this is my fourth tatoo and I would not go anywhere else I got a rose tattoo my mother passed away and it is for her and Rick did a beautiful job I would recommend them to anybody

I got my septum done here and it was a great experience. 10/10 if I could !

Darnell is a skilled artist. Everyone at CTE are professional and corteous. Im on my 2nd tat and Im definately coming back for more.

Love the environment and how welcomed they make you feel

Super cool. Let us walk in and get our tattoos right on the spot

Very clean professional shop, will be going again:)

I love this shop! great atmosphere great people been coming here since 2011 Im very pleased with all my work and the guys are all really cool Ricks an amazing artist and person. Chitown effects tattoo!

Rick was awesome. He did a great job and the piece healed perfectly without scabbing or scarring. I will 100% be returning.

I was amazed at how wonderful and kind everyone was. Especially Ricardo, he was amazing, and I will absolutely go back to him if I want another piercing!

The only place I will go. Matt is amazing. I love all my work and the beautiful colors he has put on me. I get stopped and complimented all the time. Love this place. Go here. Dooo eeeet!

Got a tattoo and 2 days after it was burning like crazy and started to scab real bad. 3 weeks later the yellow and white( that were supposed tp be at least) have big spota of skin off. Wont go back wont ever recommend. Also of you can tell the lining of the tattoo has staggered lines. You can see breaks rather than being smooth. I have other family that have gone and have great tattoos. Juet be careful who you get. Jesse was the name of my guy.

Very intricate and every artist is very talented. 5 stars

Best tattoo parlor ever.. so much talent

Great experience with my piercings! Very professional, will go back for more!

Im not to sure about the service but a few weeks ago I went in to get a lip piercing and they made me go get my information required and when I came back they were closed when it wasnt suppose to be if you want business you shouldnt drive people away by not being open during your hours very frustrating because it took a lot of gas I wouldnt recommend going unless you like wasting time and money
