I got a tattoo from Justin on my trip to California for the first time had a great experience and I loved my finished tattoo!

The studio is super clean and is appointment only so not very many people inside. Yvonne does super clean work and is meticulous. This is the place to go to if you want professional ink done! You will be 100% satisfied

These guys (and girls) are great. They were very clean, very detailed and very personal. I went in with a friend in April of 2007 and we each got tattoos after making a schedule a couple weeks prior. He was also able to get piercings in his lips on the spot. Everything was very well done, and very well explained. Both came out great, I didn't need any touch-ups, and I definitely plan on returning for more despite now living five hours away!

Amazing experience. the artists working there were super helpful and chill and Justin did a fantastic job on my two tattoos. Would definitely come back to get tatted again even though I live in Chicago. Jody was great too even with everyone giving her a hard time.

I had the pleasure of being tattooed by Yvonne. She was a perfectionist and made me feel completely comfortable when getting my first tattoo. I had to wait quite a long time with COVID shut downs, but it was ultimately worth it. Yvonne emailed back and forth with me for months about the design and then walked me through her detailed process in person. As for the actual tattoo... the craftsmanship and clean lines are unparalleled and my healing process was so smooth. My tattoo actually never peeled which is a major credit to Yvonne's needlework and careful shading. My advice to you is book an appointment asap with Yvonne... you won't regret the experience and will leave with one of the best tattoos for the rest of your life.
