Reviews of Electric Tattoo Parlor , Piercing, and Tattoo Removal. (Tattoo Shop)

Katy S

My husband and I have both gotten multiple tattoos here (from Devin and Krissy) and we couldn't be happier! Already planning on coming back for more!

Thaddeus James

Called a few shops about getting my daughter's nose pierced and I felt the most comfortable with Electric after talking to Ian on the phone. He was very professional and did an amazing job throughout the whole process. I was impressed with his attention to detail and he was very knowledgeable in answering our questions. We will definitely recommend Ian and Electric in the future.

It’s been a long time since I’ve gotten a tattoo so I did my research on local shops. First impression on stopping in was super clean and friendly! I placed a deposit and made an appointment. I emailed what I wanted, came in at set time and Steve was ready. Super professional and I felt very comfortable working with him. I wanted a tattoo of “Winnie the Pooh” and he went above and beyond! I’m super appreciative and will recommend this local business in a heart beat. Thanks so much for my new addition. It’s perfect.

Dan Marquis

I decided to go in for my very first tattoo, and when I started talking about the guitar design, the staff directed me to Devin Stubbs as "the guitar guy." He immediately made me feel comfortable and seemed really excited to help me design the tattoo I had in mind. Throughout the entire process, he was fun to talk to and he put together exactly what I wanted and told me that I could ask any questions that I had as we went through since I was new to the process. Also, he knows more about guitars and their history than anyone I think I've ever met, so it was a fun day of guitar talk. I love the final result, and I couldn't be happier with my tattoo or my experience with Devin!

Double D Reviews

Easily a collection of the best artists in the Chicagoland area. I've been seeing Tom for my work for a long time and couldn't be any happier. It's an extremely clean and professional environment. Having been to a variety of other shops, some parlors carry a certain stigma with them. This place undoes all those stereotypes. Professional, clean, and family friendly. Family friendly? Why would that matter you ask? It's simple. The shop has a piercing staff that is outstanding. It's best to avoid mall kiosks for piercings as they almost never have any training or knowledge of how to do it properly. This place changes all of that. They have a very thorough understanding of what to do, and are very sterile and professional. Don't bring your kid to a mall, bring them here. Any tattoo style you want, they can accommodate. Seriously, do yourself a favor and stop by!

Ania Flaim

Have been here twice already and both times my experience has been excellent. First time I walked in I wanted my tattoo that same day and I was able to make that happen since he had an opening in his schedule (Brian). The second time I went in there was most recently and was very furtunay to meet Teddi. I wanted a tribute to my dad who recently passed and I didn't know exactly what I wanted but explained to her I wanted a butterfly but did not want it to be free standing. I made an appointment for a couple days later and walked in to be amazed to what she created for me. She is a total badass and everything about her was awesome. I highly would recommend her to anyone I know.

Lyric Roberts

Wonderful experience. Spent a long time calling shops all over trying to find somewhere available to Pierce my cheeks same day before I found this amazing shop. Got my cheeks done that day by Ian Whiskers. He spent plenty of time making sure everything was even and symmetrical, everything was very sterile, and I absolutely loved the experience there. 10/10 will recommend to everyone looking to get a piercing done.

Eric Johnson

5 stars

julie oswald

Brought my daughter to Ian a couple times and was so thrilled with how he handled her fears by walking her through every step while sharing stories of his own body piercings and such.

Nathan Varas

They are all nice i told them i am nervous around needles, when i was getting my eyebrow pierced and the lady took great care of me and walked me through it. She was very cool and nice. I would reccomend getting a piercing here.

Hugo Duran

My new tattoo is great i really recomend this place very professional and quick Billy do a great job i my first tattoo

Max Tenison

Great people and Great tattoos

Chelsea Lingl

Nate is phenomenal. Super fun and easy to talk to. Fastest artist I've ever known! I came to him when I lived in Illinois and even though I live 2.5 hours away now, he's still worth the trip to me. Will always come back to him!

Samantha Madej

Wish 1/10 of a star was an option. worst customer service I've ever experienced.

cs

So disappointed in the tattoo removal job! I end up with scares & discolored skin, not what I was promised! 3 x $150 each session... And no apology or offer for compensation. Do not go there for tattoo removal! The worst!

All Things Danae

Awesome place, awesome artists!!!!

David Sawyer

Steve Simms did an excellent job. Thank you.

Megan Szamlewski

I had a great experience here! The shop was well kept, great layout and everyone was extremely friendly. Every artist/staff member was extremely talented, as it showed in their work stations. I have found my place for all my tattoos! Krissy did an amazing job, she took my ideas and put her own spin on it as I told her to. The outcome was everything I wanted and more. I would highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone

chuck addis

Waste your time and money somewhere else. Ridiculous.

Liz Booth

My daughter and I were way over-charged here. She had a 10 minute simple black ink tattoo and was charged $100.00. My took 45 minutes and I was charged $200.00. Totally outrageous!!!

james grocke

Amazing setting, beautiful shop, great artists! Ask for Nate.

Tony Wash

Great place, talented artists, clean and professional. I send all my family and friends their way.

Colt M1889

Great place to get your ink. I've gotten 2 tats from both Tom and Steve. Both trips were an excellent experience. You can't go wrong with the folks at Electric Tattoo

Andrew Marquez

Amazing artists and wonderful people to meet. Best place I've gotten a tattoo from so far. Definitely coming back for another

Tess Bendewald

Went in for a consultation and Bryan booked me an appointment for the next day. He heard me out and drew up exactly what I envisioned. I could not be happier and the overall experience was great. The shop as a whole is very clean, professional and welcoming. They have a great selection of very diverse artists and great rates for the amazing work each person puts out.

Terri Dalton

Steve is a great artist and the shop is spotless.

Brandi McGuigan

The tattoo artist Teddi was awesome. She did an amazing job on my full arm tattoo. Great line work and awesome watercolor work. Very personable and easy to talk to. Overall great experience.

Shannon Ross

Iran was incredible! Walked in really nervous and his goofy yet entertaining personality was great. Ian explained everything step by step which was huge. The place is immaculate and he ensured I was present and aware of the sterilization process. He made it known that he was available 24/7 if I had any concerns regarding the piercings. I'd definitely recommend!

Dennis Dunn

Without a doubt the best tattoo shop around and honestly it’s as exciting as Christmas when tattoo day comes when heading to ETP. You cannot go wrong with any artist there. Tom and Meagan only employee the best in their craft and everyone comes away with art they are proud to wear. My wife and I have been customers since they opened their doors and will always treasure the experience and the art from our visits to Electric Tattoo Parlor. Hope to be adding more soon.

Brendan Golden

This is a new shop, but those chairs are filled with people who know what they are doing and have the experience to back it. The facility is VERY clean and comfortable. With the low partitions, you get a great shop feel and everyone is able to chat and hang out. Makes for a nice open and airy atmosphere. This past Sunday was my second appt with Tom [owner] who finished my back tattoo. He took his time to make sure I was comfortable with the ideas he had and followed through perfectly! It is great to find a shop that not only produces great work, but also has the passion and caring for the art they produce! Do yourself a favor and check these people out!

Errin Watson

Steve was wonderful. Took good care of me and gave me an amazing piece of art. I couldn't be happier. Very clean, and professional studio.

Nick

Great place. Me and the wife got matching tattoos with Teddy, she was awesome.

Christina Wolski

To anyone looking for a good place search no longer! Electric Tattoo Parlor is the best!!! I love this place! Everyone is very nice! I went in originally to check the place out because I found out my artist Nate Bjork (formerly at Top Notch) had moved on to this place. So I thought I'd drop in and see him and talk about my next piece but, I had next to no clue what exactly or where I wanted it even though most of my answers to his questions at first were I don't know or I'm not sure he still booked my appointment told me to email him or stop by with ideas and we could toss them around and figure something out. I came back with some reference type stuff examples of what I was thinking he took the time out (even though he was busy) to talk to me and said he'd draw something up. I had already had some work done by him in the past and it is great still looks amazing and is exactly what I wanted. This time was different I gave him more of an opportunity to show how talented he really is. What he drew up for it was amazing the stencil looked great and I was very excited! This tattoo came out better than I could have imaged! The shading and outline is perfect! I have never seen such incredible detail and such a realistic look to a tattoo. I am getting compliments everywhere I go and I always recommend Nate and this place! While I was getting my tattoo my sister had her cartilage pierced by Meagan who was very nice to her and even explained everything she was doing. Even though I didn't get my nose piercing there Meagan offered to help me change the backing of mine to the shorter, after healing post. Everything was very clean and she was fast I was very impressed. Over all this place is very clean and has a nice environment and very casting staff. I will definitely be returning and I will make sure to recommend this place to everyone!!!

Kameron Cichy

Have had 2 tattoos from here and this place is great! Awesome staff, fair pricing, and great work. Highly recommend any of the artists there if you are looking for a great piece of artwork.

Michal Les

Dev works here so

Joe Klemencic

Teddi is an awesome body artist!

Steffanie Mercier

Amazing first experience. Clean, organized parlor and wonderful vibe from all the talented staff. My artist, Krissy, was awesome! Her work is beautiful and her personality is fantastically charming. Loved her. I cannot stop looking at my new tattoo, it is perfect. Definitely going back for my husbands tattoo and more for myself.

TheTestudine

Ian was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable.

Nicole Baker

Devin did am amazing cover up

Monica Ortiz

Ian was great with our girls, we took them in to get their ears pierced. Very expensive, but worth every penny! They were so happy and it was no where near as painful as Claire's. Extremely clean, extremely friendly! But please note, if you bring your child in bring their birth certificate, your photo ID and something with their name and picture like a class photo. They take this very seriously, and that made me extremely comfortable.

Crystal Bennett

My niece and I got piercings today with Ian, we are truly happy with our piercings, and the service that was provided. We will be coming back!

Christopher Inman

Very clean and professional!

Michael Hopfner

Got new art done by Krissy and it is amazing!! Thank you so much!!! Definitely check them out for your next tattoo!!

Chelsey Novak

Best of the best

Danielle Rubach

Ian did an amazing job of piercing my sisters nose. The parlor itself was extremely clean and sanitary. 100% Recommended for piercings from my experience!

Bob Gangloff

Devin has done my work for years, and has great attention to detail.

Sin Van V

I have been to a handful of tattoo shops but after going here I found my home. Everyone there is extremely talented and so genuine. This by far is the best shop in the burbs!!!!

Kathy Holstein

So professional! So clean! Really incredible artists!

Gosia Choragwicka

I fail to understand why there has to be a piercer in the shop in order to simply purchase a set of gauges. Shouldn't the prices already be marked for all the products available for purchase? Wasted my time going out of my way to buy something that they can't sell.

Kristin

Great shop and great artists.

rebecca meier

This place was amazingly clean and the staff members were friendly, professional and true artists. Bryan Von Holst was the tattoo artist and and he applied to my inside wrist his interpretation and work from the Wildflower album from Tom Petty. It's absolutely beautiful! It's only been a week and I already received compliments. Ask for Bryan!

Jaci Pena

Amazing, perfectionist, friendly artist Teddi Garson gave me a piece ive been dreaming of. Only downside was the minimum price of 100$ my piece was worth maybe half that. But no complaints otherwise, highly recommend. And will continue to recommend.

Nicole Fox

The piercer Ian pierced my daith SO wrong it’s been a month and it is already migrating out of my ear. I understand that it is a hard piercing to do but you are a so called “professional”. Never coming back here again.

Reid Smith

Nate was my artist. Completely professional, willing to fit me in, work ethic like a champ. Did fantastic work, and I let him choose the color scheme and border, the shading is amazing. If I were recommending an artist, he is it. Thanks, Nate. I will be back for future endeavors

Sophie Machen

I had the best tattoo experience ever! Krissy was so awesome, and was gracious with every little change I wanted to make. She was patient, as it was my first tattoo, and very understanding about everything. She walked me through the whole process, and made me feel comfortable. I loved how the parlor was so open and airy. The openness was really cool because Tom would come over sometimes during the session and watch the progress. It was clean, and the atmosphere was laid back and comfortable. I could not be happier with the way my tattoo turned out, and I will most definitely be coming back here in the future!

Chris Cochrane

Very professional very nice work on tattoos and piercings. Me and my daughter went in for her first piercing and I have to say they were so good and very understanding I would recommend to anyone.

Sadie Ryan

Absolutely adore this place

Mandy

As soon as i walked in i was greeted by a young lady very nice and very accepting. I myself have never had a tatoo so i am always nervous when walkin in to parlors like these afraid of judgement. But this place is sooo nice and took the time to answer questions i had. Ill be having my first tatoo here :D
