I had an awesome experience getting tattooed here, and I am extremely happy with how it came out. Everything was clean, and a very comfortable environment. Parking was easy

Absolutely awesome! Monica did mine as a walk in, she did perfect! Jim did my sons and it is honestly the best work I’ve seen in quite some time. Will definitely be back!!

I had a great time sitting for a tattoo with the shop's apprentice, Ash! He was incredibly attentive to my needs and open to all and any suggestions I brought up about the tattoo. This was only my third tattoo and Ash made sure to talk me through the entire process, how the colors might change over time, and was incredibly thorough with his instructions for aftercare! I can't wait to go back to The Dead Whale for my next tattoos!

The studio is clean and bright and the staff is warm and welcoming. Jim T colored in a tattoo that is a memorial for my mom and did an amazing job. She would’ve loved it 💙. He also did a tattoo last seen for my best friend and helped her pick the perfect placement and gave her a really cool tattoo. I highly recommended him!!!

I got tattooed by Ash and had an amazing experience. From the beginning of the process, they were enthusiastic about the design concept. As we developed the idea, they were incredibly patient with me as I made minuscule adjustments and they are very knowledgable about what would / would not look good / is realistic in terms of color color and detailing. Getting the tattoo, they were so much fun to banter with, excellent company, beautiful shop space, and I couldn't be happier with how the cheetah came out! Go get a tattoo from them

My brother, mother and I went to Dead Whale for various tattoos. Jim and Noel are great artists and very friendly people. Both were very patient and they made sure that the design and placement were exactly to our liking. I highly recommend this place to anybody looking for a tattoo they will forever enjoy.

Best tattoo place ever. Clean, professional and the artwork provided by the artists is amazing. Jim is so highly talented. He can take the idea you have in your mind and make it come to life. Looking forward to my next appointment.

Not sure where to begin, Jim is a very talented artist with amazing skills . The dead whale is a very clean and a great atmosphere. Doesnt feel or look like a typical tattoo shop and it is very cozy. We drive a long way to see Jim and have been for many years, if it's your first tattoo or many, look no further. I highly recommend you go there . Thanks Jim

The Dead Whale was awesome for my first tattoo! I had a great experience with Noel. He was really helpful and very good at what he does. He was very good at calming nerves and giving his opinion when needed. I highly recommend for anyone, especially first tattoos!
