Floating Lotus

This wonderful group of people are so helpful and determined to get things right. I have gotten piercings all over the country and HTC in Phoenix Arizona WAS my favorite til going here. So here’s my story. I have wanted to get more tattoos that I have been waiting on to get and I have two I want to do as of this moment. One is a complete back piece and two is a small arm piece I want to cover up a scar. These are very important tattoos for me that have very deeply personal meanings to me. I am very particular about all my tattoos and don’t go just anywhere, but I saw how beautiful my sisters tattoos were and wanted to try out Floating Lotus. I have read several comments about Joe so I decided to go with him. He is going to do my arm tattoo for now and will be drawing it and doing it on the 5^th of January. I am so excited, the little kid in me is all impatient and giddy and can’t wait to see his work. Secondly I decided to get some piercings and as with tattoos I am super picky about piercers as well. The place is super clean and Sam at the front counter was super sweet and so nice. Very personable and fun. I LOOOOVE getting piercings since my first one in fifth grade, because of the adrenaline rushing through my system and the release of endorphins, so I was so excited. I asked for a septum and Monroe piercing, so she walked me back and I saw ALL of the equipment came from the packaging and was sterile, I chose a gem for my Monroe. Sam and Mike quickly and cleanly did my septum and Monroe. Other then tears from the nose piercing I really didn’t have much pain at all and they look so good. Bonus fact the day after, still no swelling, blood or plasma from the piercings. They don’t even hurt, unless I hit them by accident and I keep forgetting they are even there, unless I itch my nose or my cheek. Absolutely amazing for piercings. I will definately get more work done there and can’t wait to see my finished tattoo drawing. Kodos guys keep up the amazing work! A huge thanks to Sam, Mike and Joe for taking the time for me. I am one happy camper!

I go to Joey. He has done 3 of my tattoos and is currently working on my 4^th. He is the best. Mike is awesome, too, so definitely check out both of them.
The detail that they’re able to get into all their work is amazing. Incredibly reasonable in price, as well. I know him, so mine is lower than most would be but it’s still so worth it.
Today, I let their apprentice, Sam, give me a snug piercing. She’s awesome and very friendly. Does very clean work and you can tell she is excited to learn.
It is a very clean shop and very well maintained. It’s on Main St. In the same plaza as Hyatt’s. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. For piercings AND tattoos. Five stars no doubt. It’s also nice to be in a tattoo shop that doesn’t make you feel like you’re at a screamo concert and making a drunken mistake.
X’s and O’s!

Three first timers, Mike was great with his designs and work. Would definitely recommend

My wife and I went in, both first timers, and everyone was super helpful and accommodating. Prices are very fair. Clean shop, professional, and Mike is talented, friendly and interesting to talk to. I couldn’t be happier and will definitely go back in the future.

I could not be happier with Joe’s work. I came in wanting to get all of my passport stamps inked on my arm, and I wasn’t sure how doable it would be with all the teeny details and foreign characters. We’ve had two sessions so far (three stamps), with another appointment in July to hopefully bang out a big chunk of the other twenty-​nine.
The detail that Joe managed to get on these things is seriously incredible. It looks like they were actually just stamped on my arm, and I’ve had a few people ask if they were really a tattoo because they look so realistic, as if they just stamped my arm at the border instead of my passport. I have three other tattoos, but these are far and away my favorite. Even the colors match up perfectly to what is actually in my passport. It is killing me to have to wait to finish the rest.
Joe is also personable and fun to talk to, which makes the time go much faster. Everyone I’ve met in the shop (customers and employees alike) have been super cool and friendly. The strip-​mall exterior was a little unnerving but the inside of the shop is clean and welcoming.
