I recently visited the shop on Saturday and I have to say I enjoyed my experience. The shop is really nice and the staff are amazing. It is very clean and professional. I was tattooed by Travis and I was so pleased with the work as always. I have had two other pieces done by him prior and I am very impressed with his talent. I give him an idea and he always delivers with the design. I would highly recommend him and the shop. If you are thinking of getting anything done please consider them you won’t be disappointed.

I love the energy in this place! I got my septum done here and heard amazing things about the place, so I decided to go. Not only was Ian such a fun person to be around but he was very knowledgeable about everything and made me feel comfortable about my first facial piercing. It was also so clean, neat and organized inside I felt like luxury! Highly recommend this place and will for sure be coming back for anything else I wanna get in the future and recommending them to others.

I don’t normally leave reviews, but these days I believe it’s extremely important to support small businesses especially when they are worth bragging about. When I walked in I was greeted by Ian, who was more than helpful answering all my questions regarding the nose piercing I was interested in getting (but kinda scared). He was knowledgeable, patient and made me feel very comfortable. Did I mention how clean and COVID compliant they are from touch less hand washing station and continuously wiping everything down ... I just knew I went to the right place. I loved my experience and my new nose piercing. Thank you for such a great experience Ian, you have surely gained a customer and word of mouth recommendation from me any chance I can.

Holy greatness. If you’re needing ANY piercings done, THIS is the place to get it done! Ian was more thank knowledgable and experienced and it absolutely shows. We were insanely comfortable with our entire experience. This place isn’t you’re regular run of the mill tattoo and piercing shop, this place is luxury. With any new piercing or tattoo, you want the best of the best and this was just that. Options from true diamonds, golds etc. We WILL be back for another service. Give them a follow, their tattoo artists are insanely talented and their work proves such! Can’t wait to come back!

I was having my first tattoo done, and didnt really know what to expect.. I decided to go with TyEsha because she came highly recommend. I was a nervous wreck but the minute I walked in, I immediately felt at ease. Everyone was so welcoming and really nice! They really went out of their was to make me feel comfortable. The fact that the whole place even SMELLED really clean was so reassuring that they were actually taking the time to be safe, and in these COVID times, its crucial! TyEsha did an amazing job on my tattoo!! It looked so vibrant and colorful... so real!! I couldnt be happier with the overall experience and highly recommend this place! We will definitely be going back for more tattoos!

Better Days Body Art is absolutely top notch. If you need piercing, tattoos, or anything else in that nature this is the place to go. When you pull up you know you are going to a top notch place. Then you walk in and your blown away. Everyone there is so friendly. Ian is amazing he answers all questions, helps with everything, and really takes his time with you. Hes not going to do anything that wont look right or pierce right. I have been to many places and Better Days Body Art is number one by far. They will be the only shop I go to for now on. They earned my business and my respect. Thank yall so very much.

They have such a professional shop that makes everyone feel comfortable. They even clean the counter after every customer. This is definitely a premier shop in Killeen.

I followed Marlo and Ian from their previous place of business and I am so happy I did!! My girl Marlo ALWAYS does amazing work. She is the only one I trust to do my tattoos. She just finished a tribute to my late dog that could’ve been cliche, but she added an extra little surprise to the design that made it both unique and perfect. Go to Marlo for your tattoos, she will not steer you wrong! Ian is by far the best body piercer I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He has an incredible selection of high quality jewelry and will go through each piece you are interested in with you and just by talking to you he gets a feel of which piece is perfect for you. He already knew the piece I was going to choose before I even chose it yesterday, he’s that good!! He is also incredibly friendly and patiently answers any and all questions you might have to put you at ease. The shop is beautiful, calming, HUGE, and clean. I can’t wait to go see them again for my next piercing and tattoo. You will not be sorry I promise!!

Ian is amazing! He is care free, very gentle and so funny. I originally went in and got my naval pierced and immediately felt comfortable enough to have him correct the gauge size for my nipples.A few weeks went and I loved my jewelry so much I went back for septum and nose jewelry, I even found a pineapple piece I just had to have in my ear and he pierced it on the spot, I am so in love with it!! He was so patient and so helpful while I looked at everything and made my mind up.I will absolutely be going back for the quality and the service! Thank you Ian.

I honestly have had amazing experiences everytime, their energy is great. All my piercings have been done by Ian, Tyesha is a trustworthy artist who truly has made lovely work for me, Travis did a family tattoo with my sister which was incredible and Juan does beautiful details with a great hand! This is the shop to go to for quality work and a memorable experience from the moment you enter! Looking forward to my session with Marlo!

Followed my top notch piercer to his very own shop! I was in this building years ago when it was under different ownership and it was not ADA friendly... Ian made sure it was this time around! If you are in a wheelchair you can now get onto the porch and the doorways and halls are spacious too. Being in a wheelchair means I have to verify accessibility before I go anywhere and it was nice coming to this shop already knowing Ian took care of those needs! Anyhow if you need a piercing with HIGH QUALITY jewelry, this is the place. Ive also been tattooed by Marlo who is also now at this shop! 5 stars across the board!

I recently went here to get a few piercings. One in my nose and three in the cartilage of my ear. My artist was Ian Bell and let me just say, he is amazing. The shop itself is new but the artists are all very experienced and talented. It is very clean and they are very strict about their sanitary standards. Ian was wonderful at walking me through the process. He helped answer all of my questions and really calmed my nerves. He made sure to explain everything to me so I wasnt left guessing. When it came to actually piercing, he was very efficient and precise. I barely felt any of them. He was also very thorough in going over after care. Throughout the whole visit Ian was very friendly and upbeat. He has such a great spirit and a contagious energy... I highly recommend him!

Wow what an amazing experience! If you are in the search for a world-class piercing Artist Ian Bell is your guy! Super responsive, easy check in procedures, clean and sterile environment throughout the entire shop, very thorough in explaining the process and super funny and down to earth.

My daughter and I both got piercings from Ian, one nose and one tragus. He was very patient and professional while showing us all of the jewelry options they have. Ian was also very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, which put my teenage daughter and I at ease. I absolutely LOVE both piercings and can’t wait to get more! On a side note, I followed Marlo here for tattooing. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. She is an amazing person and tattoo artist! Oh, and their new space is beautiful, clean and just super cool!

Today was my 3rd time getting pierced by Ian and he never disappoints. He makes you feel comfortable and there is always good conversation. His jewelry selection is gorgeous, they are amazing quality and definitely worth the money. Most importantly his sanitation is always on point. All of my experiences have been quick and painless and my piercings have healed beautifully and I will definitely keep going back!

Review №32

Ian is amazing and he has the most beautiful jewelry selection. For some of us the healing process for a new piercing can be lengthy. It helps to have a beautiful piece of sparkly jewelry to look at instead of the plain titanium offered at every other shop. The piercing was fast and easy. Ill definitely be back to see him again soon!

I went in to get my 2nd tattoo from Travis, the first was done at another shop. This new shop is incredibly clean and COVID compliant. Travis is amazing and his work speaks for itself, very satisfied with the whole process from consultation to the actual tattoo itself! Travis worked with me even though I lived out of town. I highly recommend this studio and all the artists that work here, you can tell they truly care about each and every piece and person they work with!

Review №37

Travis and Ian are the best!! I’ve been coming to Travis for years now and this Houstonian knows what he’s doing! The work he does for me is always clean, spot on coloring, and he always knows what my vision is because he asks all the right questions on consult days! I had my first experience with Ian today and he was so helpful and informative! He helped with my jewelry issues (from another shop) and I plan to make an appointment ASAP to get my bad septum fixed (from another shop). Can’t thank y’all enough, Better Days will always have my business :)

Review №46

I was pierced by lan, the most safe and personable body art technician Ive ever seen. He sterilized in front of you so you know the instruments are sterile. He uses sterile gloves and lets you know what the piercing will feel like. My favorite thing is that he is so easy to talk to and he has great quality jewelry. None of that Claires junk and he wants you to follow up if you have any questions. I will definitely be going back for their tattoo artists and more piercings.The shop was hella clean and everyone wears masks. A must see!

The phrase save the best for last, comes to mind when I think about Ian Bell. I had the pleasure of stepping into Better Days Body Art which is a tattoo and piercing shop. Ian Bell is indeed the full package for piercers. He was highly recommended as being one of the best piercers in Kiilleen, and I must say he set the bar pretty high. His jewerly is very classy, elegant and the top of the line. He is very quick, extremely attentive and precise with his piercing techniques. Totally professional and a joy to interact with, and I can honestly say he stands by his work and his work stands for itself.

Spent nearly 7 hours at the shop yesterday. TyEsha Reels is awesome and the first part of my sleeve is looking amazing. These guys are taking Covid seriously, everything is so clean and I felt safer in there than pretty much any other business Ive been in for the past few months. Super highly recommended, and Ill be back in about 10 days for part 2 of my arm.

What a professional and sterile yet contemporary studio Ian Bell is running. I got a Ear piercing on my Tragus and the entire experience was great. From the covid steps required of clients upon entry (face mask and mandatory hand washing on entry) to the quality jewelry selection displayed and explained all the way to the final piercing and care/maintenance talk we had. I recommend this studio hands down.

Just got a half sleeve done by Ty’Esha, and I’m floored with the results. I came to her seeking a cover-up, and she exceeded my expectations with her original photorealistic piece. She’s extremely creative and always makes me feel heard. I 100% trust her to develop and execute designs I love, even if I myself am not exactly sure what I want. The facility is also very clean, professional, and personable. Honestly can’t believe I found such an amazing artist and shop in Killeen.

I have been wanting my cleavage piercing for 3 months. During my TX visit I decided to do it.. Today I called Better Days Body Art for an appointment. I was nervous and almost changed my mind. I met Ian Bell (piercing person) he calmed me down by talking to me and making me laugh. He assured me that when he finishes that I would love my piercing.. He was right, I am loving it and I got 2 piercing instead of one..What I LOVE about Ian is that his focus is only piercing.. Thank you Ian and Better Days Body Art
