I had Nick re-outline a tattoo for me. We discussed how I want to have it finished and I put a deposit on having his work on display at the tattoo expo NH. When I arrive at the Expo, he tells me that he can’t do what I want him to do and I lose $150 deposit. I would never recommend him to anybody. Unless you have a drawing to present to him, he cannot do it. Apparently he is just a tracer, not an artist.

This place is really open and quite a large store. Thankfully I read the reviews before coming here because I was shocked to see how many people bring their dogs. Left my service dog at home because I was not about to have her attacked by some pet (very common thing with people who bring there dogs or fake service dogs anywhere) and as soon as we walk in… guess what, a dog was there. For a place that does tattoos and piercings you would think they need to be sterile. The staff become dog babysitters and we had to all listen to a dog scream and cry while their owner was in the room being pierced. Not 100% the staffs fault but pets shouldn’t be allowed anyways. How can the staff do their jobs when they need to babysit?? Even in the reviews people complement this place for watching and holding their dogs while they get their piercing or tattoo done. So ridiculous.
♿️ was told by staff via messaging that the doors were accessible with an elevator. Sadly there was no handicap parking and the doors were a nightmare to open. However the elevator was working properly and very clean.
Other than the handicap parking and dog watching service the staff was very nice and friendly. As many people have said Jen is very sweet and very talented.

I always raved about this piercing shop. nothing good but experiences, BUT a few months ago i went in and bought $80 worth of new jewelry that they said would fit my piercings. I chose to change it out myself to avoid spending extra, but when i got home with the Jewelry, none of it fit my piercings except for one, which was a hoop for my labret. I called the store asking if i could come back and get different jewelry because it was the incorrect gauge, but i was told that they wouldn’t be able to exchange it. The only solution i was given was to go in and pay extra to have the piercers change out my jewelry. i opted not to. later on, the labret ring ended up splitting my lip open.

Jen is amazing!! I brought my puppy Remy in and everyone loved him the employees held him while I was getting new nose ring placed. I brought my friend Rebecca for her nose piercing for her birthday. I adore the staff there!!! My next trip there will be getting a meaningless tattoo on my neck covered. I told the staff " Ty will be back with Remy soon." I was told they'll be counting down the days! I love in Maine and I wouldn't go anywhere else!!! They deserve 1 million stars!⭐x million.
Felling grateful,
Jennifer Best

Absolutely loved my piercing visit! Just went back for a downsize and Sabrina was 100% amazing! I felt comfortable, no pain, and reassured as I knew my hardware was sterilized.

Jen is amazing. I was nervous about the process and she put me at ease about my piercings. She was patient and explained what she was doing. Would recommend to anyone who wants a body piercing

Jen is a highly skilled piercer, providing me with an exceptional experience. Her professionalism and meticulous attention to detail put me at ease when I visited Spider Bite to get my nose pierced. When I decided to get my conch pierced, I knew without a doubt that I wanted Jen to perform the procedure again. Despite the line of people waiting to be pierced, she patiently explained the procedure to me and answered all my questions. Her apprentice, Claire, also displayed expertise by offering valuable advice on jewelry selection and sizing.
Cleanliness: The room where Jen performs her piercing services is exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and organized.

I always gave myself my own piercings ( double nostrils, septum & helix with no issues and are fully healed). When I wanted my belly pierced the skin was too thick to do myself so I came here. It took 16 MONTHS to fully heal with exceptional aftercare. Two years later I came back to get my nipples pierced for the same reason. I had the same piercer from my belly peircing and she pierced the AREOLAs of my nipples and id gladly include pictures as proof but my review would get taken down. Its been exactly a year and they still discharge and are red and irritated with the same exceptional aftercare. Safe to say I will never go back and if 0 star rating was possible Id give it that. Went to another shop to get my conch done last month and have had zero issues with it healing.
Cleanliness: The only piercing shop to give me an infection not once but twice.

I recently moved to the area and this will for sure be my default shop. I went last year and unfortunately don’t remember the piercer’s name, but I needed to re-pierce a previously damaged piercing (my fault, ripped it out!) and the piercer was phenomenal with accommodating the scar tissue and figuring out a great new placement.
Came this week for Claire’s apprentice piercing special and I could hardly believe she was an apprentice. Super well informed and communicative. My conch looks great and was a breeze to get. Her mentor, Jen, was also present and fantastic.
Everyone from the piercers to the front staff has a great vibe and were friendly and helpful. I think it says a lot that I went a year apart with different people and had the same positive experience. Kudos to this shop!

All due respect to them for making sure that a woman is not pregnant before tattooing/piercing, but you’ve gotta do better than pointing at a woman’s non-pregnant belly and asking “is that a baby bump?” Ask any woman out there: major self esteem killer right there. Come on man… Find any other way to generally ask if there are any medical conditions, pregnancy, etc. As to their work, I can’t speak on it.

Absolutely stellar shop. I am so brand loyal to this wonderful establishment. They’ve pierced my helix, and my friends have gotten lobes, helixes, nipples, tongue and nostril piercings here. My whole friend group loves to get together for new tattoos/piercings every so often and of course we go to Spiderbite! Also the first shop to give me jewelry that consistently keeps my piercings healthy. Staff are all patient, helpful, engaged and seem excited to be working here! Top place in NH!!

Check out the photos. As I have learned more about this, I’ve found that the jewelry they greedily sold to me wasn’t even safe for healing or appropriate as an initial piercing, they won’t care about your health or wellbeing, they just want your cash and will then act like you’re trash. Don’t trust these people.
I’m just absolutely baffled by my experience. I went to get my first two piercings in my life. Loved the experience at first, everyone was great. I tipped generously and thanked everyone. Three weeks later my body decided to reject the piercing and my ears swoll up so large that I had to go to urgent care and the doctor told me I need to remove the piercing. This is my bodies fault, not Spider-Bite’s. This is where things get dicey, the $240 gold snake I purchased literally snapped in half at the post when it was removed. A single tiny gold earring is simply not worth $240 and I was really splurging on this. I knew I was over paying but I figured it would be quality and I really liked it. So I went home from the doctor with my antibiotics, steroids, giant ears, and broken overpriced earring. I was pretty distraught but I decided to try and call and see what would happen. The really nice guy on the phone showed a lot of sympathy and said that he’d speak to the manager. I spent $475 there for two piercings. My only request was that I be able to return the earring for a refund and that they speak to the manufacturer and get it replaced *with a new earring from the manufacturer, not the literal earring from my ear, which I figured was clear but I’ve edited this for clarity* on their end so they could sell it to someone else. He asked the manager and they agreed. Told me to come in with the earring. I was so pleased, I was telling my friends and family what an upstanding business this was. How wrong I ended up being. When I showed up the only thing they said they would do was repair the earring. I can’t wear earrings, the quality was already sub-par and I was told a refurbished unit was the best they can do. That isn’t true. Sure, the manufacturer made the product— but your company is marking up the price wildly and then not even standing behind the product. Even with the $240 being refunded you would have made a couple hundred off of me, and I got nothing out of the deal. If you’re selling a product that doesn’t last, it’s the cost of doing business to do the right thing. You should have refunded me and dealt with the manufacturer, but instead decided to rob me of hundreds of dollars for literally nothing. It’s wrong. I will never stop telling everyone I know about this, and this town ain’t that big. Absolutely immoral. The lobby was full of people about to buy. I can’t fathom why you need to rip me off, and I’ll never return.
Edit in response to my calls not only being ignored but also this ridiculous essay they decided to write instead of just returning my calls. This absolute trash establishment not only refuses to stand behind their products, or so much as return a phone call. The “response” here is absolute nonsense and I would never recommend anyone spend money here. Management responding this way is just another layer of arrogant disrespect. I would check all the other reviews that share my experience before coming to this terrible establishment. They are crooked thieves who don’t even respond. The fact that I wrote the review prior to them responding is due to the fact that they were blatantly ignoring me. I wouldn’t put your health, cash, or time in these unprofessional clown’s hands. The mark up on this jewelry is absurd for the level of absolute disrespect they deem appropriate.
I hope yall go out of business.

The people at this business will charge you insane prices and proceed to disrespect you beyond belief. I wouldn’t send my worst enemy here. Steer clear. Also, shop around a bit. They are preying on local people and you’d be better off going to a quality establishment elsewhere.
