"Edgar pierced my daughter’s ear cartilage. Located in Skin Illustrations tattoo shop across from main JoCo Library. Very friendly, made lots of jokes and small talk, putting daughter and me at ease which reduces anxiety and pain. Ensured exact spot she wanted, using a small hoop to demonstrate. Less costly yet far more Hygienic/Safe/experienced than at the mall: $40 for cartilage piercing included small surgical steel post, I didn’t ask the price of ear lobes or having two at once, but I would recommend Edgar over the mall for standard ear piercing too. Provides after care instructions (inexpensive products available at any drugstore) and help if any reactions or problems occur later. Walk in 12-8 pm.
Bring photo ID; ages 16&17 must also bring a parent with ID, & a notarized permission form. Bank next door will notarize Edgar’s/Skin Illustrations’ forms for free; if you miss that bank’s biz hours, CapFed customers can access a notary til 7pm at their Shawnee Target & Prairie village hen house locations.
If bringing a young child along, I suggest headphones for them, as Edgar’s vocab is anti-establishment. 😉"
"Everyone was nice and polite while I was getting my piercing. I also received free advice on a future piercing that I've been thinking about."

"It was awesome everybody was really kind and Good help in the tattoo artist Todd was perfect . He was an awesome artist did great work"
"After looking multiple places, we picked Skin Illustrations-Tattoos to get my daughter's ears pierced. The piercer was very sweet with her, even getting her water when she looked a little pale post-piercing. It was very affordable and the option was given to use a piercing 'gun' or a needle. We were very happy with our choice."
"My wife (who now has 5 tattoos) brought me here for my first tattoo ever. We were lucky enough to get Lance and we walked out super happy. My wife said that it was the most pleasant tattoo experience she's ever had and that Lance paid attention to detail like no artist ever has before. All that attention to detail for only $80! Which was way less than I expected so I made sure to tip the rest. Lance is a great dude and will make you super comfortable."
