I’m a firm believer that when you find an artist you’re happy with you should stay loyal to him, and I’ve found mine in jimmy !!

Highly recommendPosted on Victoria Fitton2025-07-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’d been wanting a daith piercing for ages and had done some research on the best reviewed piercers in the area and the “Viper Pit” topped the list. Not actually knowing where the shop was located, I drove past today and decided to call in to see if they did “walk in’s”. Chris greeted me and luckily, was able to fit me in. Chris has a “gift” of making you feel immediately at ease. cracking jokes and asking questions. Before I knew it, my piercing was done! Chris was professional and obviously very experienced.The whole procedure was efficient and (almost) painless. I woke up this morning with no intention of getting a piercing, but I’m so glad i did. Already looking to return for a new tattoo. Thanks again for fitting me in Chris. The “mature” lady with the funny ears 🤣😂Posted on Natasza Kowalska2025-05-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
