Amazing service! Super friendly and sweet. Danielle, the piercer there, was super helpful and calmly explained everything along the way. She offers assistance even after the pierce is complete and is super supportive about answering any questions. Would highly recommend this business to anyone.

Danielle is an amazing piercer and a great educator. Been going to her for years (yes, because she’s that good) and bringing people who’ve wanted new piercings or had failed piercings. She is so efficient I barely feel anything and it’s over. She is such a smooth piercer.She is great at answering questions, providing easy-to-follow aftercare instructions, and has an amazing selection of surgical grade titanium and real gold (and white gold) jewelry. Highly recommend this true professional at her craft.

Alex is incredible! This shop is clean and beautiful. The communication from start to finish for my piece was excellent and I will never go anywhere else for future work.

Danielle has done 5 piercings for me. Nose, Monroe, Tragus, Conch and Daith. She is so warm and has a super relaxing energy about her. I do not do well with new environments and some shops make you feel like an outsider. This is not the case with Lake Street. Everyone is so welcoming to everyone, no matter what your experience level is. I just got a 4 hour piece and Alex did an amazing job on my arm. I went in with an idea of what I wanted and he custom drew my artwork so it is all my own. The session was super relaxing and he made me very comfortable. Appointments are kinda far out for them right now, but I promise you, it is absolutely WORTH IT!!

I was nervous about getting my septum pierced but Danielle was amazing and talked me through the entire process. She helped calm me, told me what to expect during the process and what to expect for healing. She has SEVERAL options of top of the line jewelry on hand for any type of piercing, the knowledge and professionalism to do it all, great chair side manner and most importantly was EXTREMELY clean and sterile! I am not disappointed and will definitely be returning to her.

Great service and super friendly! :) but earrings are supppper overpriced! I looked up the ears that I purchased that were $80 EACH! found them later sold as a SET for $60.00 and the ones I purchased from them are already bent and jewel fell off one of them. Wish they didnt make you buy their jewelry or at least price it close to what they are.

Danielle at Lake Street Tattoo & Piercing was awesome! I had my nose pierced for the first time and she made it a very comfortable experience with her professionalism and patience in helping pick out the perfect jewelry. It was clean, quick and the vibe here is very positive. I highly recommend!!

I was here yesterday to get my ears pierced by Danielle. Everything was spotless and I received a ton of helpful information. Danielle helped me pick earrings that suited me, sterilized everything before hand, and walked me through the differences in earing quality, composition, and materials. I would happily come back here to buy from them again as Danielle was extremely professional and wants to provide the best service and products possible.

Review №13

I’ve had my last three piercings done here, 2 brand new and one a year ago, and each time was the best experience with piercings I’ve had. Danielle is extremely knowledgeable and professional. She made sure the anatomy of my ear was compatible with the piercings I wanted and then explained everything step by step through the process. I also love that she autoclaves everything right in the room, so you know everything is sterile. My last piercing healed so nicely and I’m sure my new ones will too. I’ll always go to Danielle for future piercings.

Danielle always takes care of her customers and make them feel special. Shes always taking the time to make sure you get exactly what you want. She sells quality jewelry from respectable vendors and always has your best interest in mind. Personally, I havent been pierced there, but Danielle has been able to take my poorly done piercings and heal them. She has trouble shooted all of my piercings and I cannot thank her enough for that. Fantastic human. Cannot praise her enough for the work she does. She has become a reliable resource for me and many of my friends.

Got my tattoo there a little over a year ago and forgot to leave a review. Couldn’t of been happier with the whole experience. I covered up an older tattoo and was super impressed with the skill and work of the new tattoo. Super clean and the shop is extremely great. Was able to get my work done by the owner and was very pleased with the whole experience. Will definitely be going back.

I got a nostril piercing with Danielle and it was a wonderful experience. The shop was clean and very inviting upon first glance!Danielle is very professional and passionate about her craft. She offers absolutely beautiful jewelry! I had a hard time picking just one! The piercing process was so smooth and I felt so comfortable with her the entire time. She explained everything very well and walked me through the whole process.I am definitely going to return to Danielle if I ever want another piercing. She also sells jewelry without getting a piercing and I’m going to have to come back for some of those lovely pieces!

Review №23

Just got a helix and a forward helix piercing with Danielle. She is so sweet and easy to talk to! She explained everything before she did it, which was so helpful because I was nervous ahead of time. She made sure to look at my ear anatomy first so she could best determine the placement of the piercings on my ear specifically. She even talked about the price and best jewelry for each piercing before hand! Also, she explained the cleaning process of the jewelry and of my ear so I felt safe with the piercing. She is so nice she even recommended me a place near my university I can go to if I need to downsize jewelry in a couple months. Overall a GREAT experience and a professional piercer that I already recommended to friends, and that I will definitely come back to!

A couple friends and I went to get piercings yesterday. Danielle could not have been more knowledgeable and considerate of all the piercings that we had done. The jewelry that was available was adorable and exactly what my friends and I were looking for. I will definitely be coming back to this shop for my future piercings.

A nice little shop. Clean and well maintained. Good atmosphere with original work and some fun other artist collectables that gives a great flavor of what the shop is about. Tina is awesome. She did my idea justice. I came in with simple paw prints from my dogs and she put depth and flavor on them. Glad I had the chance to work with her.

Stopped by today to get a septum piercing with Danielle. She was nice, knowledgeable, clean, careful, everything you should look for in a piercer. She answered all the questions I had, even a couple about an unrelated piercing. She was able to reopen my old septum piercing which saved me time and money. All in all a great piercer in a really neat shop.

So nice and convenient to have a shop in the area that has such a great employee.I have gotten 2 piercings on my nose, my conch and my rook pierced with her and there is more to come. She is super sweet and really talks you through everything and gives you her opinion on what would look best based on what you want.I got my sister in law to go, and she was also very pleased with her work that she will be returning for more !!I myself will also most definitely continue to get my piercings with her!

Danielle was incredibly professional and thorough! She explained each part of the piercing process as we went. I felt very comfortable and safe the entire time. The shop is very clean and I loved the atmosphere too! Tons of cool art to look at. Lots of jewelry options available, I was expecting to have to go with something plain but I actually got some beautiful opals that I absolutely love! I am visiting from another city and Danielle even offered to get me in touch with safe, reputable piercers in my area if needed. Would definitely recommend piercings by Danielle and this shop.

Came with a friend who was getting a piercing and have to say that Danielle is so knowledgeable and honest. I had questions on metals and also tattoo inks (Im allergic to SO MUCH) and she was just so helpful. I will definitely be coming to her to get my next piercing done and want to come here for my first tattoo, thanks to her recommendations. Thank you, Danielle!!(The shop is also so beautiful!)

This place provided a lovely and comfortable experience. We were looking to get a nipple piercing and were able to do it with Lake Street without an appointment. Danielle provided our services and explained the procedure as well as the aftercare with detail. I was impressed with how caring and experienced she was. She also went as far as giving me her card so that I could contact her if I am worried with the piercing and offered to refer me to another body piercing spot in my hometown of Amsterdam. I definitely recommend this place. Five stars for sure. - Marijn from Amsterdam

I love this tattoo and piercing shop! Alex was great with doing my three new tattoos, and also tattoos for my friends who were visiting from out of town. His attention to detail is the best hands down! One of my out of town friends talked to Danielle about her nose piercing and was so impressed with Danielle, she bought new nose jewelry. I too really liked Danielle with her patient and thorough explanation of getting a nose piecing so much that I got my nose pierced by Danielle! Love how clean and friendly this shop is. Ill be back!

I’ve never had a better experience at a tattoo and piercing shop! The shop is very clean & it’s a friendly and comfortable atmosphere.

I highly recommend her for piercings!!

Came as a walk-in for a piercing and Danielle was the bomb! She was so nice and made me feel very comfortable in getting the re-piercing that I needed. She was very informative on the area she was doing. I also loved how she didn’t use clamps for my piercing. Thinking about getting my nose done next and I will definitely return to her. Jewelry used is also super cute!! The place is very nice and very clean, the area for piercing is well maintained and sterile. Easy location to get to from Round Lake.#SupportThisSmallBusiness

Loved my experience and outcome of my first tattoo. Tina was fantastic - artistic, responsive and put me at ease. . She rendered an example with the water color effect I was going for, and I was thrilled with the end result. Totally enjoyed the process as we connected / talked the entire time, and I chose not to look until she was finished. Bravo Tina! The space is bright, clean, and has a great vibe. Highly recommend!

I was so impressed with the friendliness of the staff, the quality of work that I saw being done, and the knowledge that the owner had. I didn’t have anything done but brought my husband and friend in for piercings, and Danielle was happy to accommodate them. My friend was anxious about getting pierced and Danielle took her time, explained the process thoroughly, clearly and discussed options for jewelry. She even ended up customizing something for her!Super clean and kick ass decor too!FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY.

I went in because I was having hard time removing a pair of screw-in cartilage piercings (not from Danielle). Danielle was great, she was concerned about the after care instructions I had been given and the type of rings that I had purchased to replace the stuck pair. She explained the reasoning behind her recommendation, which was to purchase a pair of titanium rings instead, and helped me put them in.I will definitely go back to Danielle for purchasing different earrings in the future and if I want any new piercings. Definitely recommend!

Tina has done my last four tattoos. Shes extremely talented, thorough, and a genuinely nice person.The shop itself is about as awesome as you can imagine for tattoos and piercings. Ive yet to be tattooed by the other artist, Alex.Id give Tina and Lake Street Tattoos more stars if I could. If youre thinking about a tattoo - dont hesitate to check them out. :)Edit;Tina no longer works here. I’ve never had a tattoo from Alex or their new guy, so take this review with a grain of salt. I’ll be following Tina to her new place.I wanted to take my review down because it is no longer relevant with Tina having moved on, but it will not let me.

When it comes to tattooing, experience counts. Nobody wants to be practiced on. I sure wouldn’t!Lake Street Tattoo has that old skool been around forever vibe. I like that in someone that will permanently draw on my skin.They say practice makes perfect but F that. I want perfect out of the box. I found the place right here in the burbs.

Absolutely love the new shop! Alex and Tina are fantastic to be around. Alex takes your idea and completely exceeds all expectations on what you want your piece to be. My latest and most sentimental piece of my cat Leo was worked on last night. You can tell he took a lot of time and effort into his work to not only make the piece exactly what I wanted but to also express his own stunning artistry with it. Im so happy to have met with Alex and proud to call him my artist. Im super excited for our next sessions to finish this artwork and my dinosaur piece!!

Review №82

Danielle was informative & understanding--good 1st time experience *but* my 2nd visit was the polar opposite :(When I came back 2mos later to purchase some nose rings, she didnt have certain ones in stock; so she verbally quoted me on *three* Id picked out that day for $75. I waited over 4mos to hear her jewelry order [that included that one I liked] was in.None of the 3 Id picked were special order. And her order wasnt just my nose ring. The wait was explained as the jewelry being ^handmade.THEN, the inexcuseable happened:Later when the last one of the three I liked arrived, Id forgotten what the jewelry piece looked like; and I wasnt hot on it after seeing it again 4mos later.. She was NOT AMUSED w hearing this, and gotten curt, butI was *still* buying the other two--what you & I would think less than $75 for 3… NOPEWhen I asked how much, mustve forgot about her quoting me 4mos prior as $75 for my 3.With irritation, she took a second & looked down & said, $75I wont go there again OR refer ppl. Not cool at all
