Reviews of Iron Age Studios (Tattoo Shop)

austin backues

Carson did an amazing job on my first tattoo. Took less time than he estimated and ended up being cheaper too!

Jake Cox

Had a great experience great staff direct and confident established tattoo shop for good reason they produce happy customers would recommend to at least 4 out of 5 friends for the ability to compromise and help new or old customers with custom pieces to their liking

Christa Gayle

Jason at Iron Age Studio did an incredible job on my sternum tattoo. He was very patient and gentle!

Tracy Lloyd

If you want a piercing Caleb is your go to guy! He has done my piercings for years! If you want it done right come here!

Josh Chapman does amazing work! Some very awesome tattoos come out of this place!

jonathon ashley

I have had three tattoos done by Trevor Collis. The last two I traveled over 500 miles to have done and it was completely worth it. Trevor is a gifted tattoo artist. His work is of the highest quality . He is professional,ethical,and he has a stellar personality . Google his name and if you like his work make an appoinment. You will not regret it.

My cousin got a tattoo there, it was nice. Music is weird tho.

Candace Williams

This is the first place I thought of when I decided to get my nose pierced 2 years ago and I'm glad I did. Caleb is great at making customers feel comfortable and going through every step of what he's going to do before shoving a needle in you. He's very patient and if nervous, will wait til you're ready. I just recently went back because my ring fell out and nose was starting to close. Caleb was just as good as he was 2 years ago.

Jenn Gardiner

I had an appointment to get a tattoo done that I have been deciding on for 5 years. The artists name was Jason Bane. EXCELLENT Work! I am working on finishing up a sleeve and Jason will absolutely be the one I have finish it. I was really impressed with the time he took to make sure that it was perfect! Thank you!!! LOVE IT!!!

Disclosure: I used to work as a receptionist at Iron Age The tattoo artists are very talented and knowledgable in their work. They charge fair prices for cleanly done tattoos in a safe environment, made to last a lifetime. The artists will give suggestions and advice on placement, coloring, and design from their years of experience. As for the piercings, Caleb Steffes offers the best possible service for his clients. He takes care with placement of piercings and with practicing an aseptic technique. He is passionate about good piercings, safe healing, and sparkly gems. I was a client of Iron Age for a couple years before working there and I continue being one now.

Jana Schmuke

I took my daughter (10) to get her ears pierced for the first time today. Caleb and staff were terrific with her. Caleb chatted with her and talked her through what he was doing. She loves them! And I’m so glad that she had such a great experience!

Sommersito

If there was a 6 star review this would be it. I'm not familiar with the other employees there, but I had the pleasure of dealing with Caleb Steffes. This guy was awesome. Super friendly, knowledgable, and was able to help me calm down a little bit. Honestly just seemed like a genuinely friendly guy. Highly recommend this location. Friendly staff, clean establishment, and a fantastic price. Don't hesitate to visit this place, I can bet you won't regret it. Thanks again!

Tikeesha Calhoun

They're always so cool and positive.

Sue Jackson

Quick service for walk-in. Love my tattoo!

Adrienne Cook

The best place to go get tattoos or piercings! I got my first tattoo from here and my belly re pierced here. The prices are on the higher end of the spectrum but it's totally worth it for the service you get. Went yesterday to get my belly button re pierced & Caleb was AWESOME. Hands down one of the best piercing experiences I ever had. They are very knowledgeable on everything when it comes to tattoos and piercings.

KC Weasel

Great people with amazing talent. Everyone there treats you like family. Highly recommend.

Melanie King

I had my second tattoo done here with Katy. She was awesome. It was a smaller and simpler tattoo, but I didn’t know exactly what I wanted. She drew up an image and I absolutely loved it! I would highly recommend her!

Mitch Balogh

This is a great shop where you will get a superb piece of art. I recommend them to everyone I talk to about tattoos. Everyone on here bitching about prices are just cheap people that shouldn't be getting tattooed. Tattoos are an investment that will last forever. Great job Iron Age Studios!

Koire Black

I wish I could give this place no stars they are completed inconsiderate and pay no attention to detail. I have a Ashley piericing and I have had to go in twice and now a third time because the piercer gave me an inadequate bar that was to small for my lip now it’s swollen over and I’m in complete pain I can’t even sleep. The piercer didn’t want to give me a longer bar solely because he didn’t want it to “stick out” completely disregarding THE DANGERS OF GIVING ME SOMETHING FAR TO SMALL FOR MY LIP! Now I have to endure even more pain to get this piericing removed and I expect a full $50 refund. Go to BLACK PEARL! These people are not were you wanna go, yes they get a lot of business and that’s pretty much because they are in the delmar loop, save your money their prices are high and their service is only in THEIR BEST INTEREST not yours. I will never go to this place again and I will recommend to all my friends and family to not go here. I don’t understand how you are a professional and only care about the appearance of the piericing and not the actual healing processs I’m concerned for other people of color to go to this shop. they don’t deserve any stars.

Macallan Lay

The service here sucks. I came in to buy jewelry for my nostril piercing and they charged me 40 bucks for jewelry that doesn't even fit in my nose. Without even asking the gauge of my nose, they gave me a hoop that's way too big, and a flat back stud that won't even fit in my nose because the part attached to the jewel is way too short. As if this wasn't enough, the counter girl isn't friendly at all, and neither are any of the artists for that matter. I've had two tattoos done here by Caleb Quales, and although he does good work, he's way overpriced. I highly recommend checking out tower classic in tower grove. The guys there are nice AND reasonable. Don't waste your money here.

kirsten

I just got an amazing tattoo done by Bane. He was super amazing and so kind. He was very clear on what was happening throughout the tattoo process, and made sure I was completely comfortable. I highly recommend going to Iron Age. I also was a walk in client, and I got in immediately around 5:30 on a Friday. Highly recommend and will be coming back for more!

Ashley Burns

Morgan was great! Super happy with my tattoo!!

Shane Snyder

My wife and I each got a large tatoo from Trevor Collis. He was extremely professional and a hell of a nice guy. We are so happy with our tattoos, as Trevor truly took our concepts and made them works of art. We have recently moved to Phoenix, but when we decide to get more ink, we will come back to Saint Louis for him.

Don Madden

I got my ink from christian. He was a great guy and did a awesome job. The entire staff was totally professional and made me feel welcome for my first tat. Thanks so much.

Carly Backues

Went in for my first tattoo today and it was hand-drawn right in front of me, just as beautifully as I had in mind. Great, reasonable pricing as well! Would highly recommend to anyone!!

IamChiriga garrett

My son went for a tattoo. Very professional. Over priced for just a quote $200 but i wanted ir done right. So far a month went by with no issues. Would definitely recommend

Shaye Danna

I went here with my boyfriend for his birthday in August and everyone was super cool and nice. Both of our Tattoos turned out great. We will definitely be returning for more!

K D

I've had my second tattoo done here. This time was for a piercing. The staff is always friendly and professional. They really make you feel at ease.

BILLY WALKER

Go See Jason Bane!! He is AMAZING to work with.. & a Super Talented Artist...

LaTonya Bowens

This review is not in reference to the artwork itself, but the customer service needs major improvements. Being a new customer trying to schedule an appointment in advance was complete chaos. Then the one artist, Chappy that is highly recommended, is booked until February. Unfortunately, I would rather go somewhere else that values new customers!!

jenny bennett

I've had a couple tats here, and several piercings.

Britni Carignan

Polite knowledgeable staff. Sterile technique better than some than in medical settings. I got my cartilage re-pierced. Didn't see anything on the tattoo side of things but I'd wager from the look of things the shop is ran well all around.

Michael Roesch

Jason Bane is the guy for you. He did a great job. The shading was amazing as well as the color.

Aimée Keener

Amazing place! Great staff!! Such wonderfully talented artists!

Britt Dwyer

If you want a top notch Tattoo, then this is THE place!!! Jason did some amazing work on my right arm. I'm very, very happy with all of his work.........very talented and nice guy!!!

Carla Hall

Got my bicep tattooed by Jason Stubblefield. Love it! The staff was very friendly and took the time to answer all my questions. The price is a bit high but well worth it! Great quality work.

Troy Cooper

Everyone was awesome. Chris B. Hooked me up with my first but not my last Tat

Robert Clark

I have three pieces from artists working at this shop. I love them all and get compliments regularly. As in most tattoo shops, the artists are transient but this place seems to be more stable. Conveniently located in the Loop, there are many places to go while you wait and afterward.

DJ

These guys do an awesome job! My 17 year old son had his second tattoo they're my 1 9 year old son has had three there and we are very pleased. These guys rock don't know why all the haters are out there!

Pam Butler

Kerry Soraci made my first tattoo experience great. She worked with my idea's and came up with exactly what I was wanting. The personal care and attention was awesome.

Matt Roche

Went in for my first tattoo, and couldn't be happier. Everyone from the receptionist to the artist were very professional and friendly. I highly recommend having Jason James do your tattoos, super friendly and awesome guy to talk too and was also very informative to me since it was my first tattoo. Very impressed and please. Will forsure be back.

Tess Cooper

The shop was so clean! I went in for a simple little semicolon, and the receptionist was suppper nice and got me back right away. We arrived at the shop a half hour after it opened (which probably is why the wait was short). Morgan was my artist and took the time to make sure the design was straight (she even printed off another stencil and took the time to wipe off and repositon!). Great experience! Would DEFINITELY recommend.

Nikki Q

Caleb is amazing at what he does. He is super professional, passionate, and clean with his work. I first came to Iron Age to have him look at a piercing I had done from another shop that concerned me and he was very helpful. The piercing turned out to be way too deep and Caleb recommend to take it out to have the area heal and to come back in a couple of months. Time went by and I came back to Iron Age to get my piercing redone and I'm so happy with how it turned out. It isn't crooked or anything. I can't wait to come back when the area has healed to change the jewelry. If you want a piercing done, I 100% recommend going to Caleb Steffes.

Scott Lake

My son went here one night this past year with some friends after a night of celebrating at Three Kings Pub downstreet. His buddy got a shamrock tattoo on his butt and received much ribbing from his friends. I was told it was a great experience for the entire group! I'll kick my son's tail if he ever gets one.

Jasmine Scott

Carson did an absolutely amazing job on my fineline magnolias. Keep getting compliments everywhere I go. Super friendly and clean. Probably will continue to get tattoo work from him!

Shawn M

Very professional... They do amazing ink... Relaxed ambiance... Only thing I wish is that they had a bigger selection of jewelry eg. More styles and varieties of earrings.

Beyond Beauty

I have had many tattoos done here over the years, below I have included just a few done at Iron Age. The dolphin pictured I had done when I was 18 years old at Iron Age and I am now 39. These artist and this studio do amazing work that withstand time. I have gone to other places and most times end up with deep regret and back at Iron Age asking them to fix whatever I had done elsewhere. I HIGHLY recommend Iron Age for quality life long artistry.

Diana Sussman Tockstein

Iron Age was super duper clean, professional, and kind. It was my first tattoo and my tattooist, Jason, was very accommodating. He talked to me throughout the whole thing and he worked with what I wanted. The price was more than fair for the quality. I would recommend Iron Age to anyone who is looking for a quality tattoo experience !

Joss Hay

Super friendly service. Everyone who works there takes a lot of pride in their art. You might find cheaper shops but you'll struggle to find a better experience

Eboni Valentine

Love going here, super friendly and decent prices. Only shop I really go to now.

Nathan Reed

Saw one of the artists put on a tattoo slightly off center on the back of one of my friends. It was pretty funny. She did good work other then that.

GINGER MILLER

Had my first tattoo today. Greeted with a smile and lots of help. Justin was amazing. I wanted a memorial tattoo and Justin took care of it completely. Very nice work and wonderful personality. Thanks!!

Ray Matthew Wolf

Caleb is the nicest piercer out there, will always go to him for all my piercings. I recommend highly.

Abby Fazzino

Brought my mom for her birthday- we had an awesome time and Katy did an amazing job giving us tattoos that matched exactly. I also have a tattoo by Miss Morgan that I love and Caleb has done most of my piercings. I would recommend that anyone go here! It's incredibly professional and they're crazy about everything being clean.

Jennifer Thompson

Katy was awesome and worked fast but still looked amazing. My best tattoo yet!

DJ Noji

We took our art in to Carson. He did it fast and it was amazing!!!

Suz Yancey

Exceptionally happy with my tattoo. Clean shop, almost no wait when I walked in on a Friday at noon. I had a guest artist, so I can't help with recommending an artist that's always there.

Layne Volkart

Got a faux snug and has caused me nothing but trouble. Everywhere I go to help me with the troubles this has caused laugh when I tell them who pierced it. Don’t recommend.

G Clark

Keno is so helpful, friendly and SO talented!

Linda Me

Morgan did a so-so job on a very simple tattoo on me and a bad job on the same simple design on my boyfriend. I will never go back.

TYS526 music

First actual shop experience. Laid back atmosphere polite staff. Carson did a great job and faster then I expected

Meg Llyons

I've been to Iron Age for two of my tattoos now. I went a few years ago for my first one and the artist did not have much of a personality and was rude. The second time I came in Bayle the receptionist was beyond rude as well and not professional at all. I asked her several questions and she acted like I was a nuisance & like my questions were dumb. The second time I came in I liked the tattoo at first and took good care of it but as it was healing it started to scar due to the artist going too deep into my skin and it's been almost 4 months since I got it done and the skin is still raised over my tattoo and there's some areas where the lines are not filled colored in, I'm really disappointed. Iron Age is really over priced for what you get and the work isn't that great. I decided to go the second time bc I haven't been able to find an artist I really like in my area yet and since I already got one at Iron Age before & really wanted another tattoo I went again. I will not be coming back due to the reasons listed.

Andrea Goering

Got a tattoo here over a month ago. First tattoo and it was an amazing experience! Everyone was very friendly! Shop was clean and Chris did amazing work! They don't rush the work, but they are considerate of your time. It was great! I am from KC and would consider coming back herr again if I decide to get another tattoo.

Jeni Streck

Always clean and professional

Karla Jordan

Best place hands down, Moegan is amazing and so talented. The environment is very welcoming and staff is friendly. This is th 2nd tattoo I've gotten there and going back for a 3rd soon.

Dylan Long

Great staff. Very professional. Also very clean. Haven't had a bad experience

trica H

Love my birds I got here , very friendly and clean place.

Caleb Cechota

Very good and precise work!! Carson did my first one and I recommend him, he's friendly and pricing is great!!! very good service, will come back again :)

Octavia Newson

Ive gotten piercings from here multiple times always great customer service and great work

Kayla Zeller

I give Iron Age five stars because the work I have received, has always been really good. It is expensive, but tattoos are expensive; especially good tattoos! I have had more tattoos done here, than piercings . The piercing prices are more than fair! The atmosphere is laid back and super clean. I would absolutely set up an appointment beforehand, or get there when they open. It is always busy. I have spent more hours than I can count getting tattooed here. I have no idea what people are talking about when they say the pricing is not fair. Pretty much $100 an hour with walk ins. I think there is more fluctuation depending on color, design, etc. Or, if you are having someone who only tattoos clients, rather than walk ins. I could not fathom why anyone who had such a horrible experience receiving something permanent placed on their body, would later decide to patron again. And as far as piercings go, I personally would only let Caleb handle my piercings! He is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Maybe some of the tattooers are not personable enough... However, keep in mind that you are an adult, getting a tattoo; not your hair done. If "bedside manner" is relevant to you, then just like anything else in life, you should do your research and shop around before you decide to spend your time, money, and energy on an individual. As far as the work goes, it is extremely good. Anyone saying otherwise is just being ridiculous. 99% of my tattoos are from Iron Age, and I receive so many compliments on an almost daily basis.

Kristen Carpenter

My daughter got a nose piercing from a super nice and knowledgeable employee....sorry cant recall his name.. .we will be going back next week for mine!

Tyler Bristow

Really friendly staff, work was bomb, totally going again

Rob

Got my first tattoo here 12 years ago. Great people, great art, great times!

Paula Johnson

Got my daith pierced almost painlessly! Wholeheartedly recommend!

Steve Orban

Carson did a tattoo for my 16 year old son. He was very professional, and the tattoo turned out amazing. It was worth the drive all the way from Amana, Iowa!

Sharoyah Davis

So I walk in the receptionist was awesome. When it was time for me to get the piercing the guy says "come on", and thinking umm am I suppose to follow him?? No hi? He doesn't even look at me... his head is down... just says "sit... he says right or left..." I POINT TO MY RIGHT EAR! But since he doesn't look at me starts to take the needle out open the alcohol swab and proceeds to wipe my nose... I jump back and go what are you doing, im getting my ears pierced, he looks up at me... takes the gloves off...and walks out... never apologizing... The receptionist comes back and like hey sorry your after her... I was fine with the mistake, but the guy was absolutely rude!!! I just walked out the shop!

Lisa Robinson

Got an awesome Tattoo here!!

Rebecca Wolter

Biggest waste of money! I will say that the staff was extremely friendly and comforting, but everything is overpriced. I went there because my friend wanted to get a piercing even though I knew prices were high. I got 4 piercings for $250. It’s been 2 weeks and all of the jewelry has broken and fallen out, since I got the cheaper prices jewelry they won’t replace it for free.

Cassandra Hinton

Katy is so awesome and gentle!!! She did mine and my best friend who was visiting from out of town last year and I didn't get a chance to write a review. Just went back for another one! Katy tells you each step she's doing making the experience less painful! I will be back for another one real soon.

Jordan Turner

So a last minute idea turned into the most wonderful tattoo experience! We were in the area for dinner and I’ve been itching to get the tattoo I’ve been wanting for the last several months. We walked in and were greeted by an awesome lady who helped me get checked in and the design process was super easy. Chris, the tattoo artist helped me to get the size, color and detail work nailed down and stenciled my desired design out. He explained everything from why certain colors should be avoided to what the process entailed. He was SO gentle and super fun! I have not had a better experience thus far. Put it this way, I live in NE and look forward to several more tattoos at Iron Age. My tattoo is amazing and I couldn’t be happier, Chris is an expert water color artist!

James Christian

Great artists and reasonable prices.

Jessica Gates

No complaints here. They seems to take care of us everytime we come into the shop.

Thriving Survivor

Great connection with everyone. felt my idea was understood and my time was valued by the staff

Dice Mofo

A lady there by the name of Katy botched one of the letters on my tattoo. The "I" is way off and slanted. She also had zero personality. Regret going there.

Laurie Lang

Happy with the tattoo I received and I had no wait time during the weekday.

Carla Poe

No Customer Service very rude

Susan Skinner

They did an amazing job on my brother's tattoo! They always do such a great job. Everyone is so friendly and there is a ton to do in walking distance if there is a wait. I've gotten two tattoos here myself and will definitely return for the next one! Thank you!

Erica Zamudio-Ahl

Went here to get my ear pierced along with my friends 9 year old daughter and he did so great with her! Great experience, very clean, very professional. I'll be going back!

Beth Burkey

I got my Helix pierced there, and they were so sweet and kind! I recommend Caleb, he was very sweet, and explained to me the entire process. THEY USE NEEDLES!!! I know that was the big thing I was looking for, and, yes they do use needles. the jewelry was very inexpensive and my total was approximately $70! Very inexpensive! If you are in Missouri looking for a place to get a piercing, I HIGHLY recommend Iron Age Studios! Thanks for the amazing experience!

mcpretti

Got my first piercing (besides ears) done here yesterday by Caleb. He is awesome!! I was so scared but his bubbling personality made me feel comfortable. He talked me thru the whole process, told me how to breathe n everything. Way better than what I was imagining! Though he cant make it painless, it was quick & easy. And the little pinch of pain wasnt that bad anyway. If you're a scaredy cat like me or just looking for a CLEAN space with friendly, professional staff, I definitely recommend Iron Age. The receptionist makes checking in & out a breeze, too! Excellent customer service from beginning to end!

Michelle Aery

Awesome tattooist here but very pricey!!!!

Alex Webb

Fun, funky shop in a great part of town. I've only gone for small ink and they've been friendly, clean, and high quality, but I think they over charge slightly based on location and name. Definitely good artists, but you may find better value (same quality, lower price) elsewhere.

Glenda Fenton

My daughter and I each got a tattoo from Iron Age today. Cammeron and Kino both did an amazing job. Pricing was definitely fair for the quality of work that you get. I will be going back for sure!!

corrina sanders

Got tattooed and it was done too deep. Left a bruse and a gash in my tattoo and just looks like a scar now ☹️

Michele Malawy

Son's 1st tattoo. KAV cool guy & did a great job!

D Rittendale

“Customer service” is a big fat ZERO. Haley is what is wrong with todays youth. To be argumentative with a customer is never acceptable. She is a bad representative for any company. There are so many other places to go in St. Louis for these services…

Xander L

Wonderful help from the employees, they helped with a mess up from another business. Real life saver at the time

Robert Darroch

Great tattoo! Chris was professional and engaging. Highly recommend...

Sockfood1

It's very loud and cramped there, not a very nice place to get a tattoo in my opinion

drejthc

Took my daughter here for her first tat. Bane was absolutely wonderful. He took his time explaining everything to her and getting her input. He took great care to make sure she was on thru it all.

Camille LeAnne

I have gotten my first piercing other than my ears yesterday at Iron Age and let me tell you that I had a great experience so far. I had gotten my belly buttoned pierced by Caleb, who was very kind and was very professional and he assured that I will have a awesome experience. Everyone was very nice there and the made sure that I had all of the proper information for the aftercare. I am very pleased with my piercing and my decision to go with Iron Age. As for the price, I paid $60 for it and it was worth it. Hopefully I wont have anything go wrong with my healing.

Gabrielle Brooks

Great for tattoos; Horrid for piercings. For my 18th birthday in December, I went to Iron Age Studios to get my navel pierced. I had wanted a belly button piercing for years and could finally get one. I thought it went great, the piercer was quick and friendly. The area around the site since then has been pink, but I was assured it was just light scarring and would fade as it healed. Well a few days ago, my boyfriend and I returned to Iron Age to get tattoos. Another service friendly visit; however, right before I left I asked another piercer there if he would know when the pink would fade... One look at it and he says, "Whoa, who did that to you?! That should've come out yesterday." Apparently it was too shallow, by an 1/4 of an inch..?! It was nearing necrosis. So he took it out and told me to come back in a month to have him repierce it. Needless to say, I am devastated. Now I am left with a scar half the size of my actual navel. But I had my tattoo done by Kerry. I love that.

Che B

Carson was so amazing! I told him this was my first tattoo and he was understanding and took his time with me! I definitely will be going back to him but everyone was very nice there. #2

Jason Caesar

Best place to get a tattoo or body piercing in St Louis.

Krystal Zimmerman

I had an amazing tattoo artist. The process was quick and easy. Very pleasant customer service. A little pricey, but it's worth it . I'll give it a 10/10.

cedric offutt

Courteous receptionist, comfortable waiting area, very professional. Most importantly my tattoo was great! Pricing more than reasonable. Ill be back again for sure

Allison S

I've always come here for my piercings. Always a good experience. Clean, professional. Caleb is fantastic!

Kate -

You can get the same quality tattoo elsewhere for cheaper

Trevelyan von Zeplund

Fantastic tattoo and peircing place. Their peircer Kaleb takes sterile conditions very seriously, along with being an excellent peircing artist. This is one of the best places to go for tattooing or peircing.

Kody Ihnat

I went with my friend to get her ears pierced. She was very nervous, but they were soothing and professional and did a great job. There was very little pain and she loves how they look.

Aleeyah Thompson

Immediately greeted with a smile! The reception people are super friendly and make you less nervous while waiting. Got my tattoo done by Jason Stubblefield, and it looks amazing! He was super friendly, kept me laughing the whole time and made my design better than the picture I brought in. Overall it was a very personable experience!

Melinda Hoffman

Went in today for a simple tattoo and the line work is SH!T! Absolutely do NOT recommend Kristian.

Gabriella Berkley

I have had tattoos and piercings done here. And let me tell you, you're not going to find a better artist than Jason James!!! His works is clean and fantastic. His hand is light, and he's just a nice guy. He enjoys his work and the proof is on my skin. I've have several tattoos done before him and he is the ONLY artist I've gone back to. He is my tattoo artist and I recommend him as often as I can. If you're considering getting tatted here ask for this dude, he's awesome. Thanks Jason!!!

T.H.A.T Paranormal

Great place to get tattoo, friendly staff, if you are not sure you can send idea in to them they will help you and quote you a price.. Going back for sure

Anh Nguyen

Went in for a nose piercing and only waited for around 25 minutes as a walk-in, which wasn't bad at all given that the store was starting to fill up. Caleb was super nice and made the entire experience comfortable. He was knowledgeable and quick. It didn't last more than 15 minutes getting the actual piercing and it was a nice clean environment. Super sanitary and everything. Would recommend going here for your piercing needs!

Chayse Vaughan

Caleb, the piercer, went above and beyond! 10/10 would recommend!!

Goddess Webster

Morgan was my artist and she did an amazing job. She suggested that I move my tattoo higher. The placement is perfect !!!!! The place is clean and the staff are friendly.

Amber O'Toole

I have two tattoos from here and I absolutely love them!

Sarah Grellner

Rude, arrogant waaay over priced for what they do the work is poor quality I would not recommend

Shantavia Mills

Loved it!! 1st tattoo and everything was so freaking awesome! Everything was so neat and clean. Everyone was extremely friendly and all smiles.

LaMecka Truman

Caleb is the best! He was patient, informative and personable.

Elias Baldridge

I have gotten all of my tattoos from here. Great service. Reasonable prices. Great staff. Friendly.

Stlbeen

Went in 4 days in a row and they couldn’t even give me a lip tat that takes 10 minutes would not recommend this place if u want a lip tat go to a more established tattoo parlor

abbie lee

I’ve went here a total of 3 times now, and this is the best tattoo/piercing shop I’ve ever stepped foot in. Super clean, Hayley the receptionist is super kind and knowledgeable. I’ve went to miss Morgan for all 3 tats and she is the best! I would recommend this place to anyone.

Denys Finder

Less than a week ago I visited Iron Age to get my first tattoo. My tattoo artist, Katy, was super friendly, patient, and helpful. Since it was my first tattoo, I was quite nervous and anxious. She put a lot of efforts into perfecting the design I chose. I would personally recommend Katy. The place by itself is pretty neat. The stuff is friendly and so are the other artists working there. It all creates an illusion of a great atmosphere. If I were to get another tattoo, I would come back to this place.

Erik C

Been getting tattoo'd here for 4+ years now. Have had near every artist tattoo me. Everyone is super nice and talented at what they do. This shop is also my go to for piercings. Very clean and professional shop and will have my business for many many years to come.

Chie Chie

Awesome atmosphere, work quality, and team. Artists and piercers are extremely friendly and the facility cleanliness and professionalism is almost medical while still having a great vibe. Prices on jewelry are a little high and it isn't the cheapest place for tattoos or piercings, but its still normal. When considering the quality, Iron Age is the best value you can get.

Libby Liston

Went in on a whim to get my first tattoo and was with a friend who got a piercing. The people were very nice and hospitable. They let me stand with my friend for his piercing and and let him sit with me for my tattoo. A very clean environment, very professional. Only complaint is that it was a little pricy.

Jackie Adams

Caleb was the best he was gentle. And made me very comfortable even after i told him a few personal things that happen to me when i get nervous I'll def be a returning customer #SeptumPiercing

Erica Rose

My 11 year old daughter went here to get her ears pierced for her birthday, her piercer was Caleb and he was so kind to her and made it painless. I would definitely recommend Iron Age to anyone.

rat bastian

Great experience!!! I was a walk-in, had about an hour and a half wait which wasn't bad at all since they were busy (and there's plenty to do around the area anyway). Morgan was my artist and she did a wonderful job! Very professional and friendly, chatted with my friends and I for the short duration of the process. Price was very reasonable, place was clean, all around awesome

Andy Perez

Got in and got out for septum piercing. Very nice staff here too. Helped me with any questions I had.

Went there a while back for an arm piece, lettering was mediocre. The shop has national hype but it's work by the artists from what I've seen is average at best. Pass on this place. The owner is all about tattoo history etc. The artists seem bored and unmotivated. You feel like your wasting their time. A corporate atmosphere.

cool place, it's on the loop which makes the ambiance, I got three triangle alchemy symbols on my hip they looked great until I realized that one of the triangles was a little crooked but other than that a pretty wickedly awesome place.

I got my septum pierced here by Caleb, and I absolutely love it! He did a great job, and talked to me the entire time making sure I knew what was going on. I will definitely go back to Iron Age for more piercings

Cris Gable

My sister and I came here to get a tat together. Chris was our tattoo artist. He was absolutely fantastic! The tats came out amazing and don't even hurt at all. We are so impressed with this place, from the really sweet receptionist to Chris, the whole experience was awesome! We will definitely be back!

I went with my sister to get our noses pierced. We ended up working with Caleb. He was an absolute joy. Very calm and positive energy. He clearly knew what he was doing and was great about giving his expert opinion while still being open to our input. He was very careful about keeping things clean and very informed about the jewelry (I work with MRIs so I have to have surgical grade metals). We were walk ins and we're seen with only a little waiting around 4pm but the place was quickly getting busy. I would 100% go back to Caleb. My only qualm is parking was a pain, but that's life on Delmar these days.

Kino does amazing work, and was kind enough to do it! Well worth the trip.

Jade Moersch

The staff are super friendly and professional. Caleb is by far the best piercer I've ever met and the coolest dude in the Loop. Definitely seeing by if your looking for friendly staff and a quick stick

Christina Hune

I got my tattoo done from Jason James he did awesome job

Lissha Westmoreland

Told me it would be impossible to have the beginning letters of my kids added through a heartbeat as a tat, tried to tell me to do something else like a heart. When I said I didn't want a heart the artist got an attitude with me, very rude. I went somewhere else and had the tattoo done within 15 mins. They let me pick the font, size if the tat. It looks amazing. These guys couldn't do it. Apparently.

Decided to pop in for a tattoo while on a road trip with some friends. All four of us got tattoos and we're able to get in and out with no problems. The staff was friendly and the prices were pretty normal. Everybody's tattoo turned out great! The shop is pretty neat inside too! Overall great place to get some ink!

Everett Lawson

Great place for a tatoo

Karen Halbert

I love the work I have had done at Iron Age. I have had 4 visits here, 4 tats and 4 different artists....and love each piece! Here's my newest

Kierra Haskell

I just got my conch pierced by Caleb Steffes. It didn’t hurt during the piercing at all and my piercing looks and feels awesome! Will definitely be back for more piercings!

David Bolus

Trevor is a true artist. He transformed an old, thematically outdated tattoo into something new and vibrant. I want even more done.

Brandi Tate

Had all my ink and piercing done here. Always satisfied with quality of work.

Went to get a helix piercing, my wait was not too long but it is best to go when they first open, since this is a very popular tattoo shop in St. Louis. My piercer, Caleb, had great conversation and distracted from the pain of the piercing. The shop is clean and very stylish.
