My daughter had her ears pierced by Misty at Fat Kat last weekend and it was a wonderful experience. Misty took her time with her and explained everything she was going to do. She was so thorough with her measurements to make sure they were perfect on each side. Everything at Fat Kat is so clean and sanitary. Misty was great about giving us after care instructions. When it was all over my daughter was so happy. She had been to one of those piercing shops at the mall and said she’ll never go back there. This is where she’ll get any other piercings because it was such a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Fat Kat for any piercings you want. Misty is the BEST!

My wife had her septum clicker STUCK. We called the Fat Kat and talked to Misty who was available and told us to come by immediately. In less than a minute after sitting down she had the piercing out. Misty was super sweet and helpful, go check her out!!

Wonderful place with very talented crew. I got my second pair of ears lobes pierced today and I have a fear of needles, misty took wonderful care of me. Misty told me exactly how to take care of my new piercings. Everything was clean, everyone was so sweet. I’m getting my ears pierced again on the second along with my navel.

I got my very first piercing, a septum piercing, done by Tom and it was a really great first experience! Due to covid, my husband wasn’t able to come inside with me so I had to get the piercing done alone. But I’m really appreciative of how seriously they took social distancing and cleaning measures to combat the virus. I felt very safe there. Tom was very quick and made me feel well taken care of. I was in and out in 20 minutes and I absolutely love my new piercing!

I recently got a piercing here and can not think of enough amazing things to say! My piercer was awesome and made me feel super comfortable. They were very clean and informative as to how to take care of the piercing. Following their instructions everything is healing perfectly. I could not be happier and highly recommend!

I could honestly say I’m a regular customer when it comes to getting piercings at this place . The piercers know what they’re doing and they make me feel comfortable but I must say please **INVEST IN BETTER PIERCING JEWELRY . I feel every single time I come in I get a cheap piece of metal that fall apart within a few days and I have return to get it replaced another expense out of my pocket. I have even heard a piercer once said their jewelry is cheap and that’s not a nice to hear because I know it’s a fact. I would be more happy to get more piercings at this place but I can’t afford to waste more money on replacements.

Trying to get my little sisters ears pierced was a nightmare, calling shop after shop they had ridiculous policies, and expensive! Fat Kat took care of us and also, got us in same day with a 20 min wait. It was clean, and Misty(I think that was her name) was very sweet to my sister, guided her thru the cleaning and healing process, and my sis is super happy with her ears :)Thank yall so much ! Ill be coming by for my septum soon

Lauren took care of us. This want my first tattoo at all... But it was the first for my 17yr old kids that wanted to do something special for our bond. Even tho its small, it means so much to us. Lauren helped to make their wish and dream a reality. She was extremely professional in helping our vision come to life. I was so impressed with her skill and attentiveness, that I plan on coming back with my wife soon. Thank you so much Fat Kat, and a huge thank you to Lauren. Thank you so much. The kids love their tattoos.

I was lied to about availability. I was told that they were doing piercings and that we didnt need an appointment and that they were available until 12a.m. I was 5 mins away and as soon as I arrived I was told that they started a 6 hour tattoo and that there was no availability. I wish they told me the truth instead of lying and wasting my time. 1 out of 5 stars very ghetto would not recommend.

Made a last minute appointment for me and my best friends to get matching tattoos. Kaitlin Medders reached out before the appointment and had a design template prepared when we arrived. The shop was clean and practicing social distancing. Kaitlin was super nice to me and my friends (tattoo virgins) and created a beautiful tattoo for each of us. We 100% recommend coming to Fat Kat Tattoo and getting a tattoo with Kaitlin!

I saw Misty for my first cartilage piercing and would highly recommend her. Needles always make me light headed, but Misty made the process quick and easy. She went above and beyond to make sure I was okay afterwards. It was a great experience and I will be going back for any future piercing needs.

I really loved my experience there! It was my first tattoo and I didn’t know what to expect in terms of pain. But it wasn’t bad at all! The establishment was VERY clean and I was delighted to see just how cautious they were about cleanliness. The staff were very professional and nice and I felt right at home. The price was a good deal and the quality was amazing! I will definitely be returning for any future tattoos.Thank you again Fat Kat!

The artist that’s actually doing your tattoo will usually be nice and respectful to you at least until you leave that is. The other artist don’t care if your bringing the shop the work in business or not they will be extremely rude and short to you even tho they are overcharging out the a**. I got twice the amount of colorful detailed cover up work At TRUE LOVE TATTOOS AND IRON CLAD TATTOOS for literally less than what I paid for here at Fat Kats for a small 5 letter cursive name that’s smaller in length than an index finger and me and not even 3/4 of an inch in tall letters. It took 20 mins and they charged me 90 I got about 3/4 of a half sleeve of really COLORFUL & DETAILED COVERUP WORK FOR 220 at TRUE LOVE TATTOOS. I don’t recommend this shop at all if your big on respect and disrespect. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND:::::IRON CLAD TATTTOOS&TRUE LOVE TATTOOS

Review №25

I just called to ask 2 simple questions about a piercing. The woman on the phone was extremely unprofessional and unhelpful regarding my genuine questions. She made me feel as if I was an absolutely bother. The woman ended the conversation with “I literally cannot do anything for you.” I don’t think I’ve ever been spoken to that rudely. If you’re in a job or position you hate, there is no need to make your customers/patients/consumers feel terrible for their needs. Will not be going here or recommending it to any of my friends.

Honestly words cant even express the experience my Husband and I had yesterday when we got our tattoo. First and foremost all the employees at the shop are so nice and Amazing. We had the pleasure of having Chris as our Artist and his work is breath taking and AMAZING! The atmosphere at the shop is something I have never experienced before. Its laid back I will admit I was nervous at first but all that went away really quick! Your made to feel like your at home, comfortable. Great conversation and just simply amazing! Yesterday at the shop was an experience Ill never forget as not only did my husband and I have amazing pieces of art done by an amazing artist we also had the pleasure of meeting Scott ( I do believe is his name, sorry I forget names lol) hes the husband of the shop manager Misty which is so sweet and amazing as well! We had along conversation with Scott as my husband got a tattoo of a dragon holding my cancer ribbon as Im fighting my battle. Scott talked to me about alot of things and before he left he asked if he could pray with me and for me. Scott, myself,my husband and Chris stood outside in a circle with arms around one another as he prayed for me! Something youd never think would happen especially at a tattoo shop right?! However if youve never been to Fat Kat tattoo shop I can beyond promise you that your missing out on some of the best Artist, and just down to earth Amazing people in general! Thanks again Chris, Missy and all of you for an amazing experience Ill never forget. We will be back soon️

Review №55

So I went here about 3 time the first time I was very satisfied and it made me come back because I was so pleased with the work but the last two times It was very unpleasant there is actually only one good tattoo person here and he has an owl tattoo he is very good but every time I go he’s never there but the last two times I went here there are two females here that said I have sensitive skin to make up for the bad work as if my skin has something to with the fact that they scarred me and I came back the second time I came and they acted like they couldn’t help they just told me “I’m sorry you have sensitive skin just give it a couple weeks and it should be fine” I wasn’t happy but I came back and didn’t go to the same person went to someone else in there and I thought they would be better but it wasn’t I just got it I been washing it daily and taking care of it but it’s got real nasty. With scars and I keep washing it and stuff but I see no sign of it being better (but every other time I got a tattoo this has never happened up until this point) and not only that the customer service is bad and everyone seems mad when your in there but I would never recommend this tattoo shop to others

I went into Fat Kat Tattoo on a spur the moment trip in a rush on a late Saturday night. They were quick to get started, walked me through the consent sheet and pricing. Leo was my artist and he did a great job on my tattoo and got me going quickly as I was in a hurry. I appreciate the ink. Thank you, Fat Kat tattoo.

My friend and I came in today to get piercings done. She was incredibly nervous, but Tom did a great job of easing her through the process. He was cracking jokes and made things fun. I wanted an old piercing re-done and he was actually able to stretch the existing hole without having to re-pierce it - saving me money. The shop was also very clean and the other staff were nice as well. 10/10 would recommend!

I would highly recommend this place to get your tattoo done!!! I am an Indian looking to get my tattoo done in Sanskrit language. I was initially skeptical due to having a tattoo in a different language but Katlyn was the artist who has done my tattoo and she did a tremendous job. I am extremely happy with her and work and received plenty of compliments. I would say the best tattoo place in Jax!!

I went there today because I got a piercing about a month ago from a complete different company. The piercing was sinking into my ear lobe. I went there to see if they could help me and the piercer (young blond woman) was extremely helpful. She helped me and gave me a new piercing. 10/10 recommend!! The woman was very patient and caring !!

Walk in appointment at 10:30 pm on a Saturday night. Staff was very accommodating and professional. Very clean establishment all around, tattoo machine assembled in plain sight and needles opened from new packaging and installed in machine in plain sight.

I had a great experience with Chris, who handled my nostril piercing. In true amateur fashion, I didnt have enough to eat before getting my piercing and became faint directly after the stud was in place. Chris was extremely kind (as was the front desk lady) and had me rest for several minutes with a Coke before letting me leave. He talked me through my dizziness and made me feel comfortable and safe. Thanks!

Very professionally and helped me be at ease getting my belly button pierced again.

I am in Jacksonville for vacation for the week and decided that I wanted to get a tattoo while I was here. Fat Kat Tattoo was able to get me in when I scheduled the appointment almost immediately. Barrett did an amazing job and was very personable and professional for my entire experience. I got a fantastic tattoo to commemorate my graduation from school that I could not be more pleased with. I would absolutely recommend Fat Kat tattoo to anyone. Thank you guys for ending my vacation on an extremely positive note.

UNPROFESSIONAL STAFF. I went to this establishment looking to get a tattoo that was gonna cost around $300 to $400. I only had a picture on my phone to go by as to an idea of what I wanted. The artist who would be doing the tattoo was in the back and couldnt be bothered to come up to the counter and speak with me about it. The girl at the counter should him the picture on my phone and all I heard was Christ!. Then he said it would cost by the hour. He still didnt come out to discuss the tattoo with me. I figured Ill take a chance and went ahead and paid a deposit of $50.00. I even sent the artist Edwin a few pictures of designs that I liked and never got a response back. I decided to cancel the session so I politely asked for my deposit back and Edwin said it would be no problem. I went into the store and asked for my deposit back and I was told that the person I was to talk to was out and no one knew when she would return. I even suggested using the deposit for a piercing but they wouldnt except that. Im not waiting for them to give me my money back and I have already disputed the transaction with my bank. DO NOT GO HERE. DO NOT USE CASH. VERY SHADY.

I loved everything about getting a piercing done here. And they are reasonably priced! I went in to get a set piercing yesterday and was greeted by a wonderful blonde lady, who also did my piercing. I didn’t catch her name. After filling out paper work and reading over the legalities I was taken back in less than 10 mins. She was very friendly and made sure I understood the process and aftercare. Within 3 mins I was done with no pain or bleeding. This was the best piercing experience I have ever had! I’m so glad I chose to go to fat kat tattoo over grimewerks tattoo!

I was referred to this place and I decided to get a sentimental tat from there. Walked in the door and I kid you not, I walked right back out. The customer service was BEYOND TERRIBLE!! If you want a tat, go somewhere else!!! The absolute WORST tat shop Ive ever been in!!!! I felt rushed, unwelcome, and they showed NO respect for me at all. The only thing that could be done to fix how I feel, is to CLOSE this shop. Since you dont seem to want to do tats anyway...

As a first timer I had an idea, walked in on a Friday afternoon, and explained it to Tom. He sketched it out on his iPad device, drew it up, and had it ready to go an hour later. Needless to say I got what I wanted, everyone was friendly, studio is clean and Im stoked with my finished product. Gotta see how it finishes out but the detail was awesome as of now. Highly recommend.

Me, my grandmother, and sister all got tattoos here. I have multiple tattoos from multiple places but wow. I am never going anywhere else. The professionalism displayed by Tom at Fat Kat on beach Blvd was incredible. He made sure we were all comfortable, happy with our designs, and clear what we were getting and where. His artwork was unbelievable and he was clearly an absolute pro. On all the other tattoos I have gotten Ive scarred immediately and noticably. But with Tom I didnt scar at all. He is a true professional with a steady hand. I will definitely return.

Terrible customer service. We left and went somewhere else and rain into four people that were going in as we were leaving.

Review №97

I went in after 2 weeks of dealing with a piercing that was improperly pierced at a different shop dealing with total hell with a piercing from a different shop. They examined it and gave me advice and led the way on a smart decision to let the fresh piercing close and to get it redone due to the fact that it won’t heal and if it does it won’t heal properly due to it being done wrong AT ANOTHER SHOP. They were very helpful clean and professional. I’ll definitely e going back to get my piercing redone correctly and any tattoos I plan on getting will be done at this shop. They’ve won my heart in my shop choice. I’d refer anyone I know with any wants or needs or tattoos or piercings. I also wanna addd that there were 3 people being tattooed and they looked very comfortable. I cannot wait to go back!
