Review of Electric Crayon Tattoo Co.
Electric Crayon Tattoo Co. is a tattoo and body piercing shop located in Aurora, Colorado. The shop offers a range of tattoo and piercing services, including custom designs and cover-ups. The shop has a welcoming atmosphere and is staffed by experienced tattoo artists and piercers.
The shop has received mixed reviews from customers. Some customers have praised the shop for its talented artists and quality work. One customer mentioned that they have been getting tattoos from Steve Smith since 2014 and hold the shop and Steve in a special place in their heart. They also mentioned that the shop has clean lines, beautiful work, and great vibes. Another customer praised Bri for being an amazing piercer who is kind and helpful.
However, other customers have had negative experiences at the shop. One customer mentioned that they received a sloppy and almost unreadable tattoo from Steve after being told it would take between 2-3 hours. They felt that Steve didn't care about their piece because it wasn't his original art. Another customer mentioned that they had a poor experience with their nose and daith piercings. They felt that the piercer didn't talk them through the daith piercing and their ear canal immediately filled with blood. They also mentioned that the shop recommended washing the piercings with soap on q-tips, which caused the skin around both piercings to become extremely dry and their piercings don't feel clean at all.
The shop's prices have also been a point of contention for some customers. One customer mentioned that they felt they were taken advantage of because they came in as a walk-in and were charged $250 for a tattoo that took less than an hour. Another customer mentioned that they felt the shop was overpriced for the work they received.
Overall, Electric Crayon Tattoo Co. has a range of talented artists and piercers, but customers should be aware of the mixed reviews and pricing concerns before choosing to get a tattoo or piercing at the shop.

Definitely will recommend John (Tatoo) and Javi (piercings). The business is clean and the staff are very professional, calm and comical. You will feel relaxed and love your art work and piercings. You will come back!!

I haven't gotten any ink here, but I'm four piercings in at this place, and anything else I get done will definitely be here. Krysten and Amber are both great piercers, and are really good at putting you at ease for your piercing. The shop itself is clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.

I had a bad experience here. I got a wrist tattoo my first tattoo here and the tattoo is too high on my wrist so now ill have to keep getting it touch up as it will fade a lot faster. no after care instructions. And when I tried to make a appointment to go back I kept getting mixed information at first no response and then I call and I am told I have to come in to schedule an appointment. I am now going to someone else who will actually respond back to me and give me what I want. I also went here for a nose piercing that is now infected! I will never be back here again!

Each artist at this shop works very hard and meets their clients needs. I love getting my tattoos here by Antonio & piercings by Javi. Everything is very clean and it’s a nice environment compared to other shops. Javi is fast and proficient when working and makes you feel comfortable.

I have been tatted there and I recently took my sister. The artists are amazing and professional. The work is awesome and they don't charge an arm and a leg!

The artists are just that, ARTISTS. The work delivered from the people at The Electric Crayon Tattoo is nothing short of brilliant, beautiful and amazing!
A small group of multi talented individuals who take pride and passion in the tattoo art that you will receive in this shop.
I recommend making an appointment and a consultation, as these guys book up for a reason. Johnny B. Is my artist, but the other artists are extraordinary as well!
If you want a $25 tattoo or a "deal from a friend who tattoos in his uncles garage" This is not the place for you. In other words, you get what you pay for, so make a good decision when selecting a tattoo artist.

I am from Florida, and in Colorado for a Fast Pitch tournament. Me and some of the girls wanted tattoos and piercing. After reading many reviews of local shops we choose Electric Crayon. This place is great! The shop is cool, the artists are amazing! We had Steve Jr. and he even stayed after close for us and was super kind and funny! He did an awesome job, my best tattoo so far! (This was my 4th) i am in town until Monday, and If I have time I will be going back for my 5 th! If your from out of state like me and looking to get a tattoo, go to Steve Jr.!
