Burning Hearts Tattoo Co. 2357 Whitney Avenue, Hamden, CT 06518

"I had my septum pierced in December of 2022. Corey made the experience so easy, calm, and comfortable. Not only are they extremely informative and knowledgeable, but also approachable and kind. Everyone in the shop is this way for that matter. I was so pleased with my first experience here, that when my Mom expressed interest in getting her earlobes pierced again, we made an appointment at Burning Hearts to see Corey. And again to no surprise, the experience was lovely. Corey made sure to help us work within our budget and was super helpful with jewelry choice. My Mom left the shop extremely happy with her new piercings and the overall experience. Thanks Burning Hearts, you guys rule!"

"Got a nose piercing from Carlos a couple days ago and had a great experience! Place is extremely clean and really welcoming. Overall awesome experience. Carlos was super nice and made my roommate and I feel really comfortable. Looking forward to coming back in the near future. Seriously great place!"

"Will be returning! Nicholas is a very talented artist and treated me with care and compassion while at my visit to the shop. I felt confident in his abilities and also felt very comfortable. His work is beautiful! Looking forward to working with him in the future. Thanks for having me!"

"Corey is an amazing piercer! They were informative, friendly, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. Highly recommend them! The entire shop was amazing and truly can’t wait to get more piercings done!"

"Found this place on a whim and could not have been more lucky. I got my nose pierced here yesterday and I’m still thinking about how great the whole process was. The thing that stands out above all is the seriousness in which they take their cleanliness. I’ve been to several tattoo shops in the state and this place blows them all out of the water. I work in health care and am so impressed by Carlos’ knowledge of the sterilization process and the clinical yet welcoming feel of the parlor as a whole. Carlos was amazing from start to finish; he made me feel calm and his expertise shone through his work. I didn’t feel like a client he was just trying to get in and out- he took his time explaining every step including aftercare, answering all my questions, and assuring me anyone at the shop could help me should I have any concerns in the weeks to come. I’m so happy with my new piercing and will absolutely be back for more piercings and tattoos in the future! Thank you!"
