Located on Haight Street, this store is filled with lots of out-of-towners, however, the busy retail atmosphere is only front of house. As you are led to the rooms in the back it becomes apparent that these folks mean business. I have never seen a cleaner shop. Have been both pierced and tattooed here and being a bit of a germaphobe, I loved this place. I have gotten four large pieces done here by Brian and I love them. People have stopped me on the street to comment on the work that he did on my arms. Staff behind the counter can be a bit annoying with the "too cool for school" attitude, but hey, I cut them a break because they are young and they do have to deal with Haight Street foot traffic all day. Also, there is a gal that tattoos at the shop who did a tattoo on a friend of mine that was a pin-up girl based on my likeness. It really looks like me. Can't remember her name, but I think she is the only gal at this shop.
