The guy in the front was VERY rude and impersonable. The only reason Im giving 3 stars is because thw guy who actually did the peircing was awesome, insightful, helpful, and kind. Thank you Mr. Peircing guy!!!
Jay did my forward helix piercings and he was great. Kind, easy going, personable, and professional. Piercings didnt hurt at all. The shop is nice and clean. I will definitely go back for all my future piercings. Thank you!!!
I mean...I could have saved $100 and bought a piercing gun from Amazon for $12... instead I paid $100 for piercing my ears with super expensive $5 earrings. Get a biiig sign and put prices on it ..EDIT: Its not a big deal. Just would be nice to know how much Im paying before I have to pay. Again, I would have chosen Amazon because $60 is wild for ear holes.
Jay was great to work with. It was my first time getting a facial piercing and I was very nervous. He explained everything that he was doing and made sure I was comfortable. I love my piercing!
I had an appointment with Jay to get my dermal anchors removed and it was the best experience I could have hoped for! He was super professional, easy to talk to, and walked me through every part of the process to put me at ease. Every employee I interacted with was very welcoming and friendly today, especially the girl working the front counter and the one whom I talked to after. (I didnt catch their names) I definitely recommend this shop and will be a return customer myself. You all rock!
My fiance and I went in for tattoos this evening and the tattoo artist Jesse was awesome! He made us feel included in the whole process and transformed our idea into a beautiful tattoo. I would 100% recommend him. He was also a great conversationalist and we genuinely enjoyed talking to him!
Gotten a lot done here over the years. Gotta say, walking in to a man with a blank stare & such blatant disregard for being any sort of helpful is…. Underwhelming at best. I can understand if you’re tired or overworked, but it really seems like he hates his job or doesn’t want to help me as a customer. Can’t tell.
They messed up my friends septum’s piecing by putting it too high. They also said she couldn’t have a ring and only horse shoe, even though the other place we went to get it removed said she could have had a ring. They where nice and mine came out ok but at least say you were wrong and give the money back.
The staff was super helpful and took great care to sanitize the skin and the equipment used. Cant avoid pain completely with this kind of thing, but it was done and over with really quickly! Lobes barely hurt at all. Theyre taking walk ins now, but appointments are recommended to avoid long waits
I have social anxiety and i struggle with human interaction, especially 18+. the lady working front was super kind to me and led me through everything despite me having no idea what i was doing and showing up 45 minutes before close. jay slipped me in last minute and was extremely professional and led me through the whole process, which only took around 10 minutes for my septum. interactions like this gave me more confidence to be able to do things by myself as i’ve always struggled with this. 10/10 service and incredible people working there :)
I was able to make an appointment with Tribal Rites Longmont location that day. I ended up getting my nipples pierced and my piercer, Jay, was super welcoming, friendly, professional and made it a relatively painless experience. The shop was clean and the staff was kind. Absolutely recommend.
I went last week to get my nipples pierced by Jay, he was incredibly professional and accommodating. This was truly the best piercing experience Ive ever had, so much easier than when I had my nipples pierced the last time. The process was so smooth, he put the jewelry in when he pierced them so it was very fast and easy. Couldnt recommend more! Thanks Jay.
Had my rook piercing done by Jay. He made sure I had a great experience. He’s meticulous about following COVID precautions and cleanliness, friendly, professional and just a fun guy to be around. I will definitely be back for more work.Ian at the front was super efficient and a pleasure to chat with. they both even helped to sort out a misunderstanding I had at another location. Highly recommend!
I have gotten multiple piercings here and they are great and always put you at ease. Definitely coming back for more!
I came in last week to get help putting my septum back in and to get my nipples pierced and Mo was so awesome! She made me feel totally comfortable and like we had been friends forever and walked through the whole experience with me. You can tell she really cares about her clients. The girl working at the front desk was super nice too, all in all a great experience from the moment I walked in the door!
I had jay as my piercer and he was great! Super nice and the process of the piercing was perfect! He made sure to get it direct on with matching the piercing on the other side of my nose! Definitely will go to him the next piercing I get! Thank youuuuu:)
They were great customer service wise, but my friend ended up with a wonky septum piercing and immediately took it out.
My tattoo came out great colorful and vibrant. Mason was very chill about the whole thing letting me take breaks often. Very chill place.
I had an appointment with Jay for my septum piercing. The facility was so clean, and the protocols that Jay followed in the shop regarding covid were so professional. His shop area was clean and tidy. He was so kind and reassuring, and made the process smoothe and easy!Thank you Jay!
Mo does a great job piercing. Would highly recommend having her do any of your piercings.
I went to get my septum re-pierced and Mo was amazing! She was super sweet and very skilled. I will be going back to her for any piercings I get in the future.
Guy who tattooed me only drew one option for my tattoo, acted bothered the whole time and didnt even remember what I wanted. I paid in advance for him to design my tattoo, and instead he did ONE drawing on the spot at the appointment. Super rude, if youre a girl they give off a why are you here vibe.
Went in the other day for jewelry changes. Great quality pieces and very nice and kind workers.
Very pleased with Jays work. cool dude and very understanding highly recommend!
I got my Daith piercing a few hours ago and had a fantastic experience. I didnt catch the name of the lady behind the counter but she and Jay were both very friendly and professional. They explained my options for available jewelry, and it was a very short wait before I was called back. Jay explained everything he was doing as he was doing it so there were no surprises, and the piercing itself was relatively painless. I had to trust his judgment for the placement since I couldnt see the initial marks, but its absolutely perfect and he did a great job - it looks like it was meant to be there! I honestly could not be more thrilled with it and will definitely return for future piercings.People who have left poor reviews for this shop seem to be, for the most part, people who didnt follow directions, people who didnt do proper research, or people who dont want to pay for services rendered. Ignore the naysayers, if you want a piercing in Longmont Tribal Rites is the place to go!
Take your money to the one in Fort collins its owned by better people. I brought an ID in for my son to the Longmont tribal rites branche they didnt like the one I brought so they turned me away and then kept my money. They are lying thieves. They offered to give it to me on a gift card and I only agreed to get it that way thinking I could use it in Fort collins but he said I couldnt do that it had to be used at one of his locations he doesnt deserve my money after lying so I asked for a refund and he wouldnt give me one even though they turned me away. Dont go to any owned by Mike hell steal your money and then blame you for it.
I love this place and I think they have the best jewelry selection on the front range. I’ve been into this location before and had a great experience with everyone that works there. Unfortunately, today (11/15) there were two employees working in the shop. The woman at the front desk was super great and helpful. However, the other gentleman working was unnecessarily jumping in with a negative confrontational attitude regarding the jewelry we were interested in purchasing. Ultimately, his overbearing attitude led us to leave and not purchase from this place I’ve loved for years. Bummed about this experience
Staff are really sweet
Clean and professional. Got both lobes done. No pain and great aftercare info.
I had a larger arm tattoo that has taken 8 visits to both the Longmont and Westminster locations. Every single visit has been such an amazing experience!!! Not only has my artist Nate been such a pleasure to work with, but every interaction I have seen in the shops has been extremely professional. Every visit, the staff members have made me feel like family. I would highly recommend using Tribal Rites for any tattoos or piercings!!! Thank you all for making my experience WONDERFUL!!!
Front desk gave me the wrong size gauge because they didnt measure my size
I had my septum pierced yesterday, and I could not have been more pleased. They answered my countless questions, were so patient and did an absolutely amazing job. Thank you sooo much guys! I will be doing all my piercings here from now on!!
Staff is great! I strongly recommend this place. Ive been to a couple of different shops over the past couple of years and I will definitely be making this my #1. I came in looking for some help with my ear piercings because they were extremely irritated, Jay was super friendly and honest which is very important in a piercer. I have 13 ear piercings and all but three were flared up and he took the time to talk to me and set up a plan to see if there was any way I could keep them since I was worried I would have to take them all out. Its been a couple of weeks since I went in and my ears are doing so much better. All of them would bleed and had keloids, my oldest is 4 years old and I have been trying to heal them ever since. Ive tried everything and been to various piercers, and I am finally seeing results. 10/10 recommend this shop, Jay is great and friendly, im sure everyone else is too.
My daughter got her ears pierced by Jay and we were very happy with our experience. As other reviewers mentioned, it is fantastic that they use sterile, single use needles at Tribal Rites.
I was visiting CO for the first time and I went to the Longmont location as a walk-in dead set on an inner lip tattoo. Mason was my artist and he had never done one before but was very much up for the challenge! He was so nice and easy to talk to. It was an extremely clean environment and I was very comfortable. Needless to say, he killed it. It came out SO good and i was in love. Go to Mason!!
I normally dont write reviews, but here we go: I went to change out my nose piercing yesterday. I picked out what I liked, the very aloof desk boy broke the gold ball I had chosen. So he asked if I would like the gold disk, I said that was fine (it was still cute enough). Instillation went okay, and I was on my way. Next morning I noticed the disk was missing luckily I had my old stud in my bag and put it back in. It cant be that hard to put a nose ring in. I would not recommend them, I would rather drive to Fort Collins and go to the real Tribal Rites.
I went in to get a septum piercing tonight.. The shop was very clean and I felt very comfortable. The piercer (I don’t remember his name) explained the healing process, how to clean it, and the piercing process. The piercing went super fast and was basically painless. I will definitely be going back!
Clean, friendly staff, great services. Nuff said.
Friendly employees. Nice work they all do.
Not impressed. The ladys in my family took a day to get my cousins ears pierced (shes 8 almost 9) we had been told it opens at 12 on Sunday but it opens at 1. We walk in and the lady who was helping us was not friendly and looked stoned out of her mind. Then she said she needed to see some kind of ID for my cousin who is 8, My cousin is homeschooled and doesnt have one. My cousins mom could have brought her birth certificate if someone would have told her when she called. Again, Not impressed. So morel of the story. We have an 8 year old with a broken heart. We Do not plan on coming back.After my cousin and Mike (the owner) emailed back and forth everything got figured out and we came back today got my cousins ears pierced. J did an amazing job. Thank you tribal rites tattoo for making everything right.
I got my daith done here and the guy who did it was super nice.
Ok place for getting piercings. Ive gotten my ears pierced a few times here. The place is a little too gothic in my taste. Staff not super friendly in my opinion but they get the job done. Easy to make appointments online.
I believe you would be better off going somewhere else.My girl got work there and i have way better work done in a jail cell..Horrible..
Simply went in to look at jewelry, they had a small selection and were unhelpful. Then one of us was told to leave do to over capacity though we were there before others. Unprofessional and curt, definitely would not recommend
I love how friendly everyone is and the atmosphere is chill. The gentleman that did my semicolon was awesome. He noticed I used to be a cutter and said anytime that urge might come along come see him for small tatts to help get through those feelings. Hands down coolest dude.
Covid has the world in shambles but I felt very comfortable in this establishment during these times. They took every precaution possible including a low & controlled amount of people in the shop. Hand sanitizer at the door, masks of course. They had a system for ensuring that iPad and iPad stylus where clean for each guest. I got a septum piercing everything went as it should. Clean & professional, delightful staff, and a friendly atmosphere. This is the spot to go for piercings in town
Christian has done multiple tattoos on me now and i am very impressed by the work completed. He is very professional about the entire process and has a great attitude always! He took the time to explain carefully about the things that come with having very visible tattoos that i wanted on my knuckles and hand. After being tattooed by multiple places and people i have finally found my go to spot and artist. I love coming in for appointments because everyone on the staff is very kind and nicely mannered. From the front counter to the artists this is an A1 shop. Would highly recommend!
It was a well cleaned place with amazing workers. The piercing turned out amazing and is healing amazing!!! The only thing is that my card was declined and it took forever to fix but it all turned out fine
5 stars for being a true tattoo shop, taking walk ins and being so good and passionate about what you do to draw up a tat on the spot. What I wanted was simple lettering and I got art! Something several other places couldn’t comply with. Life is not always planned and neither were tats back in the day. You want one, go find a dude and get it. Freehand and personable, thanks for a great experience dudes! I’ll be back
Absolutely loved my experience here. Great little tattoo I got done the artist was amazing, very easy to talk to also used his knowledge of the art to take the picture I brought and made it his. Love it
Xavier did my nose piercing and I was very nervous. He made me feel really comfortable and was very patient. The girl (I didn’t get her name) that helped us when we walked in was also extremely helpful and knowledgeable! I would recommend them time and time again!
I got a helix piercing done here yesterday by Xavier (went cause of his reviews); both him and Jasmin were professional. I was very nervous about getting it done, but I’m starting to enjoy it. My ear was red for only about an hour after getting it done, and Tribal Rites provides a helpful after-care pamphlet. Overall nice experience. I plan to go back for a check in, in 3 months, as advised. Thank you!Hope this helps another nervous person.
Tribal Rites is awesome! The people are so friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They invite scrutiny, are willing to answer anything, and are super fun!
Awful customer service!!!! Piercer talked over any thing I tried to explain. Over priced as well!! In all well not refer or go back to
This was my first tattoo and I immediately felt at ease with the staff. They were friendly and made the atmosphere very comfortable; it felt just like family! I showed Christian a picture of the tattoo that I wanted and he immediately sketched the exact thing! I got the tattoo on my foot and the lines are clean and crisp, the lady there even helped calm me down before hand. I would recommend anyone looking for a tattoo to go in and look at the artwork, itll speak for itself!
Nate and his crew are amazing. Rad folks who know their stuff and no BS! Great work by these peeps.
I have been tattooed by several artist, David is by far the best I have ever had. David is creative, caring, and put everything he has into his work! I Continuously get compliments on all the tattoos hes done. I have referred almost all family members to him and all are just as happy with his work as I am. I met him at another tattoo shop, and have followed him to Tribal Rites. I will not let anyone but David tattoo me in the future.
I have came in several times to change my nose then my lip ring out very professional and timidly mannard now coming in for my first tattoo thank u guys still waiting for the manager to put the 5 dollars on my account i dont like the one in longmont they are useless i paid 15 dollars in 2 days and rhey can only give back 5 ill never go back to u guys again horrible phone service how do i know u called your boss she needs to call and let me know she did it
Quick n painful. ;)
There was a snow storm and my friend was in town from Georgia. I called ahead to find out if they could pierce my friend’s ears. They said yes as long as we arrived by 7:30, the piercer said. We arrived at 7:29 and my friend started filling out the paperwork and as she was signing her name at the end, the lady at the front said the piercer wasn’t going to do it anymore. No explanation. Just no. I will never support Tribal Rites again. Very unprofessional and I will share this experience.
Great people and wonderful service. The wife thought she needed two ear piercings but found that her old piercings were still open. Just a couple of studs took care of things. Very honest, they could of done the piercing for a lot more. Highly recommend!
Awesome staff! Super friendly people and really helped make the experience great. Everyone was super helpful and the guy who did my piercing was fun to talk to and made it a lot less painful than it would have been otherwise.
Just got my nose pierced by Xavier and they look AMAZING! Super clean shop, really friendly environment, and very well priced! I will definitely be returning! Thanks so so much Xavier! I look forward to seeing you again! Also I didnt catch the guys name at the counter (blonde hair with glasses) but he was incredibly nice and had great customer service! Thanks again guys!!!!
Tribal Rites in general has always been an awesome experience. Tonight was probably my 30th time getting tattooed by Christian. He has done all my tattoos over the past 10 years. He is a dedicated artist and its been an honor watching him grow tremendously in his passion for tattooing. Its always a memory and great experience getting tattooed. I would recommend anyone to get work done by him.
Awesome first time experience at Tribal Rites Longmont. Christian did a phenomenal job with my tattoo. Amazing design, amazing artistic work. Chatted with me the entire time to help me get though the 5 hr session. Would definitely go back.
When I was first looking into getting a tattoo most people I talked to told me to go to Tribal Rites and after some research, I found myself at Nates chair completely comfortable and ready to tell him what I wanted. A week later I had my first tattoo! He also did my second tattoo and I couldnt love them more! Thank you Nate for being so supportive and just all around amazing! Much love for this shop!
I got my first piece with Jesse Wilson. Amazing artist, super straight forward dude who helped me make my tattoo perfect. Listened to lots of cool stories while getting my tattoo which made time go by quicker. Great shop with great people.
Tribal Rites in Longmont is the only shop I will go too. The Staff there is WONDERFUL! Nate has done all of my artwork and does a fabulous job! They create such a good atmosphere and everyone is helpful and friendly. The shop is clean and well take care of. Ive gotten 5 different piercings there and they are perfect. I will continue to go as long as they are open!
I would give the piercer 5 stars because his service was great. He answered our questions and it was a good experience. The problem was the guy who we talked to in the beginning. He was VERY rude and judgmental towards my husband and I. He asked for my husbands ID like questioning if he had one. And we waited for a good 15 minutes to get taken care of. People walked in and his attention to them was opposite to ours and that made us feel unwanted. We were going to walk out but in that the piercer called us back.
David Ronin took on a memorial tattoo for me as a walk-in customer. He looked at a picture and sketched up a design and was tattooing me within the hour. He did an excellent job, and seemed to really understand the importance of the tat to me, and my need to have one immediately, given Id just talked to the Denver homicide detectives about my murdered best friend hours prior to walking in. Im commissioning him for the rest of my tattoo work (full sleeves and huge leg pieces). He sold me on Tribal Rites
I got my nose pierced by Xavier who was a very cool dude! also everyone there was pretty informative, my mom came in with a few questions and there wasnt any confusion, I think actually visiting and talking to everyone actually made her feel more comfortable, now she is considering a tattoo she might want! also the place was incredibly clean and the process was very fast!
Jay was super great with piercing my cartilage in my ear. Relatively painless.
Got a tattoo done by Horace, hes quite the character. The tattoo was simple, probably a bore to do for a tattoo artist, but Horace did an excellent job. It turned out better than I anticipated thanks to his skill. The rest of the staff were absolutely lovely, very talkative and friendly.
Very nice! Staff very helpful. My Artist was on point. Totally satisfied! Clean and lots to choose from. Will be a repeat for me. Recommended highly.
A couple weeks ago my dermal was rejecting really bad and I went in to see the dermal specialist, Liz. She was amazing and quickly and painlessly took out my dermal and helped me get rid of that problem. My apologies, I forget her name, but the girl at the front desk was super helpful as well in helping me find jewelry and I actually ended up getting a beautiful opal belly ring with her help. I will totally be coming back when I want a new dermal or jewelry! They were Amazing!Side note: sorry ladies it took so long to follow up :)
Every time I come into the store I feel very welcome. The piercers are very friendly and are happy to answer any questions I ever have. They explain and make sure your confident in taking care of your piercing and what to look for (swelling and such). I got my snug done about a week ago. He did an amazing job. I am always very happy and excited every time I leave the shop. Will always come back!!
I got three piercings there, one is a surface piercing. Im going to get one more from them tonight! They have a guy who works there (Chris) who is pretty cool and does the piercings. I had a good time, the lady at the front is kinda grumpy and pregnant, but dont let that turn u away!!! Its an awesome place to get stabbed and implanted.
Wasted $20 booking an online appointment with them! Never again. I’ll take my business elsewhere.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyable environment, conversation, and music. Jesse did an amazing job; I will definitely be going back to him when I decide to get my next tattoo!
I was very nervous about getting my nose pierced for the first time. Although the piercer was nice, calm, and clean I ended up not liking where it was pierced. When I called days later to see what could be done to fix it they said its my too bad. I would have to take it out, wait for it to heal and get it re-pierced by paying all over again!!! I paid $75 initially!!! But since this is my face (and not an ear I can easily cover up) I will be taking my business elsewhere for my second nose piercing. I am extremely disappointed in their aftercare for customers. I will never be returning.
Me and my mom wanted to get cute matching mother-daughter tattoos, which were very simple (took us 20 minutes to get it done at another shop). We went over there, granted we were walk-ins, but we were told it would be a two hour wait for the tattoo artist we wanted. So we go across the street and eat and wait the time we were told to go back. We go back and both of that artists that were there had “left the shop for the day” and “there wouldn’t be any other artists until the next day.” Very unresponsible and uncommunicative and we will not be going back.
David is an amazing tattoo artist. I am a repeat customer and Ill continue to let him perform his amazing art on my skin. The shop environment is comfortable and warm.
5 stars, however they keep taking my money
I was tattooed by David Ronin. He is an amazing artist and I absolutely love my tattoo. I gave him the idea I wanted and he turned it into what I was really looking for he knew what I needed and did it. I would definitely go back and get another tattoo from him for sure.
Amazing experience!!! Highly recommend. Xavier did a beautiful triple forward helix piercing - such a gifted artist!
Got my ear cartilage pierced here. Twice. Just can’t do it, i always end up just letting it heal. But the staff are really nice. Recently got a tattoo, it was awesome
Ive been talking with Lauren at the Longmont shop about doing some eyelet piercings on my ears, and I have my jewelry all picked out. She helped me choose my size and style, and she also helped me update some of my jewelry for both my eyebrow and my ear. Lauren is patient, helpful, and super friendly just like everyone who has helped me at Tribal Rites - I really like that there are no pretentious attitudes at the shop. I cant wait to get my piercings done and buy some cool new earrings, there - they have great, unique jewelry. Thanks, all!
This place is the #1 place to go to in the area for good, safe and quick piercings.
I got my double helix piercing done by Kevin. He knew what he was doing and made the experience enjoyable and a LOT better than I thought it would be. My piercing was fairly painless and it was very quick. The place was clean and everyone was very helpful.
Got my second tattoo done here. Not only did the atmosphere in the studio feel great, Jesse did an amazing job on keeping me at ease during the process of tattooing on my ribcage. If it was not for the fact that Ill be leaving longmont soon, I would definitely come back to tribal rites tattoo.
Really good service, attentive and considerate staff for anyone nervous. Very clean place, would recommend it to anyone. Work is also very very good btw
I had a great experience at tribal rites. Jordy was very fun. He make you feel very comfortable and explains everything as he goes. He was super quick. I love my nose piercing and I will definitely go there again.
I came in for a quick ying yang symbol with my cousin to celebrate the passing of our friend on nov 9th and wow this place was amazing excellent staff and a very clean work environment. I would highly reccomend if you are looking for any sort of tattoo work in the Longmont or colorado area hit up tribal rights and ask for Mason Alexander this guy made my first tattoo experience an absolute blast I look forward to going back for more of his work the lettering he did for my cousins tattoo was crazy cool and Im just trying to decide what to get from them next. The staff are highly knowledgeable and qualified the only sad thing was having to leave the store and wait to go to back for more! My yin yang on my arm came out abousolutly solid all thanks to Mason this guy deserves a raise or at least some recognition for all his hard work he really knows how to treat customers and make it a very memorable time. 10/10 would definitely go again very affordable.
Xavier pierced my 7yo’s ears today, and he was fantastic. His calm demeanor helped put her at ease, and he explained the procedure in steps she understood. While he worked, they talked about school and Legos, and just like that, it was done! He made the process more comfortable and relaxed than I could have hoped. And he must’ve been super gentle with the actual piercing - she never yelped or twitched. Truly and excellent experience.
