Went to Oddity Tattoo on advice from a friend. checked out the tats online and the artists and made an appointment with Nate. Nate took my basic design and turned it into something great.
Have had the tat only a few hours and getting loads of great comments. Store was clean neat and organized. Artists were all nice and have their own style.
Being from Canada i wanted to make sure it was good before i started and would recommend Oddity to anyone. Love my new tat.

I really, really enjoyed the experience I had being tattooed here. I'd never been tattooed before, and my tattoo isn't that small; about the size of a man's palm. Matt Helmer was incredibly communicative with me before my appointment because I live in another state, and was visiting; he sent me several sketches and then we reviewed a finalized one before we began.
This was my first tattoo, so I have no comparison, but it was really a pleasant experience overall; everyone was very friendly and answered my questions, and despite the post-tattoo high (endorphins, let me tell you) they made sure I had what I needed going forward to care for it.
The tattoo is now about six weeks old, and it's beautiful; fully healed and absolutely gorgeous. I will absolutely be going back the next time I'm in Florida.

Oddity tattoo is the best tattoo shop I’ve been to!! They are very clean and professional... Everyone is really cool and friendly. Ambo is working on my sleeve and he’s been amazing. He’s very patient and clearly communicates expectations. He makes sure I’m getting the best tattoo!!

My family and I were in Siesta Key over Christmas break and got two tattoos with Jesse. At first I was a bit concerned because he took a very long time to draw out the design after I was asked to send the pics the day before so that he could have them ready. After meeting Jesse and seeing his work the wait was worth it! He is a very detailed artist and gave me exactly what I wanted and with minimal discomfort. The facility was the cleanest I have ever seen! I highly recommend Oddity and Jesse for your next tattoo.

Matt Norris did my tat a few days ago and it came out absolutely incredible! He is the guy to go to if you are looking for highly skilled, detailed artwork. I couldn’t recommend a better artist.

Their shop is extremely VISUALLY APPEALING, GREAT ATMOSPHERE, FRESH MUSIC, VERY CLEAN, and you can tell the artists there really enjoy what they're doing. I have gotten tattoos from both Scott and Vince. Both who I really enjoyed working with. I love how the shop helped me figured out which artist would be best suited for my specific tattoo. I had to schedule Vince out a couple weeks in advance because my tattoo involved black and gray realism and he TRULY DELIVERED! During the course of that time we emailed back and forth on what I wanted to see done, and what he thought would be most visually appealing as a tattoo. He even worked late past shop hours to get 'er done :P I see myself continuing to work with Vince because this was the first black and gray tattoo I had gotten and now I just want more to round my piece off seeing what can actually be done, the DEPTH and ATTENTION TO DETAIL is amazing. All in all I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this shop and they are WORTH THE EXTRA DOLLAR compared to other shops. Your tattoo will be on you for the rest of your life, might as well do it right the first time. I hope to get many other tattoos done from this shop. I wish this review allowed me to post a photo so you can see what I actually got, because I am that STOAKED about it. AWESOME!

The artists here were SO accommodating! They spent time to make sure that it was exactly what we wanted. Before we started they cleaned everything, including the chair. This was after we saw them clean up after their last client. Our tattoos are gorgeous and very linear for what we were doing. Everything was perfect!

We came in with a group of 7 ladies ranging in age from 15 to 72 years old. All but 1 for their first tattoo. We wanted matching tattoos all done the same day since we were visiting from different states. Oddity went above and beyond to make that happen for us! We all left very happy customers!

I got my first tattoo about a month ago by Matt! I was really nervous and had been researching all the shops in Sarasota and Bradenton. I had heard really good things about Oddity so I thought i'd give it a shot. I just walked in without an appointment and it wasn't a problem! I had multiple pictures of what I sort of wanted but I couldn't find one that completely matched the idea in my head. In about 45 minutes I had a drawn up sketch of EXACTLY what I was picturing. Service was great and quality is amazing. I am in love with my tattoo and I will definitely be back!
