I’VE BEEN GOING TO PEACOCKS FOR OVER 20 YEARS FOR TATTOOS. VERY CLEAN AND PROFESSIONALLY RUN BUSINESS. TODAY I TOOK MY OLDEST FOR A PIERCING. EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS NERVOUS, THE PIERCER WAS SUPER CALM AND ENCOURAGING. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOP FOR ANY FORM OF BODY ART. MIKE TOWNSEND “CLEAN PROFESSIONAL AND KIND.
