Heart-N-Soul Tattoo

I’ve gotten my nose and belly button pierced here. The shop is clean and has a nice bright and open feel. I don’t know about the tattoo side of things but the piercer has been very friendly, informative and efficient. He explained everything before it was happening and from what I could pick up was very sterile. :)

Jake rocks!!! His piercing technique make you hardly feel the piercing. Thanks Jake!!!

I’m from Reno. I was just visiting some family.
During our pedicures we decided to go get some piercings. My cousin and my aunt got their noses re pierced and I got my belly button re pierced. The first time was pretty awful. She pierced it crooked and it got extremely infected so I had to take it out.
This time he was really fast and ALMOST painless. It was a lot better than the last experience.
I didn’t get any ink although it was tempting, but I have a super awesome chest piece planned in April at Marked Studios.
If I’m ever in the area again I may consider here to work on my sleeve. The darn thing has been unfinished for 2 years.
The shop was pretty well lit. Typical tattoo shop. The music wasn’t really loud or inappropriate.
We’ll see how my piercing holds out in a few months. So far I would recommend these guys.
They were surprisingly open on a Sunday which was nice and we were in and out within 20 mins.
It was a little odd that the belly button piercing was cheaper than the nose ring.

Such a clean and nice environment! Going in a tattoo shop can be difficult because you never know what your going to get, but this place very quiet and peaceful unlike others i have been in! I first went here for a piercing and the piercing guy was awesome! I have since been back for a second one. I also went back and got a tattoo done by Chris. He was very friendly and made the whole process so easy! I would say they have decent prices, you pay for what you get and they do awesome work so its worth it! I have recommended them to family and friends!

Called Chris on a Wednesday to see if he has time to do a small wrist tattoo for me on Saturday. I was only in town that day and Chris was super very accommodating. Shop was open when I got there (early) and Jake and Chris were in good spirits. My tattoo was super easy for Chris but he still took time to make me feel comfortable, show me his sterilized equipment and crack several jokes. All in all I had a great hour that included approximately 4 seconds of intense pain. I love my little hourglass and plan to come back next year to have some color added to an older tattoo.

Got my tattoo done here almost a week ago. As soon as I walked in I was immediately greeted, and helped. I got a small tattoo their shop minimum is $ 50. I am happy with the results. The tattoo artist was nice, and fast! Before I knew it I was already done.

I have been going to Zoey and Jake for tattoos and piercings since the late 1990s and they are quite simply — awesome. They are knowledgable, talented, customer focused, the shop is immaculate and you leave the shop knowing you had the best of the best looking after you.
Driving from FL to Texas for my next ink is already on the calendar. I wouldn’t consider going to anyone else even though I will have to drive for two days to get to the shop.
They are great people and Im proud to promote their work…

My wife and daughter have been clients of Zoey for years for both body piercing and ink. Two years ago I joined them with my first tattoo, and earlier this year I had a second.
Why do we travel 40 miles to her business when we have several places we can go locally? Simply because she and Jake and their staff are the best at what they do. Everything from hygiene to artwork is first class.
We are about to move to Florida, and will drive two days to Zoey’s Texas business for all our future needs. They are just that good.
Oh, and yes, they are also great fun to be with.

So I’m from Hell-​A and I know my way around legit tattooing establishments. When I moved up here, in search of some new ink, I read reviews, got some suggestions from friends, and toured the shops in Yuba Shitty. Everyone told me to go to grass valley, anyone worth anything would be booked up here and everything else was crap.
I decided to see for myself and went into a few places. Some were rad, but not my style. Some were dirty looking and full of tweakers (no thanks), and one I went to with my mother-​in-​law for her tattoo (and they WAY overcharged her for really shitty work. also no thanks).
I finally stumbled upon Heart & Soul tattoo as the last place I was going to check out before I gave up and looked in Chico or Grass Valley. I walked in and was immediately greeted by Bobby, who would end up doing my tattoo, but I’m getting ahead of myself. I told him what I wanted and he showed me his work, and I liked his style, just what I had in mind. There wasn’t anyone else in the shop when I went in, but it was clean and had a nice feel to it (trust your instincts on this one). He agreed to draw something up for me.
He called me with my design on the day he said he would; I checked it out and loved it.
I went in and got it done a few days later and I couldn’t have had a better experience. He took his time and it shows in the detail. Even lines, great shading. This is my 6^th tattoo, and the first big piece, and I am stoked with both the quality of the work and the experience. Great work, Bobby! Great artwork, quality line-​work and I think I got a great price for the 5 hours that I was in there. Plus they put up with me dragging my kid with me.
When I was getting inked, a few more tattoo artists and piercers came in and they all seemed pretty cool. I got my side piece done and now I’ll be back for my sleeves. I am stoked I found a cool place to get work done. I can’t comment on anyone else in the shop, but Bobby does great work.
When you’re reading reviews for tattoos, check out the pictures. It will tell you a lot. A saw someone raving about tattoos from another shop and had these shitty flower sleeves. It looked like it was done by a kid. The chick might have been stoked, but the work sucked. I’m glad I did my research because I’m super happy with my tat, and get a bunch of compliments.

Had my nose pierced by Jake last week and he was awesome. He explained every step in detail and took his time to answer questions and make sure that the entire process was comfortable to me. Afterwards, care and cleaning of the piercing was explained plainly and simply, with a great handout to take home to remind me of the instructions I was given. The shop is clean and they are very friendly. I love my new piercing and look forward to a couple more with Jake as well as a couple of tattoos with Zoey.
