Ink & Dagger Tattoo

This review is way passed due, but wanted to share my lovely experience at Ink & Dagger. Was able to come in and get scheduled within a reasonable amount of time, the actual tattoo was done by Michel who has a very steady hand. Everyone in the shop was super friendly, and it’s safe to say the ink itself healed very well thanks to the awesome artists at I&D! 👽✨

I recently got tattooed by Robert. It was a photorealistic pelican that coverers my entire side. When I went in for the consult I expected it to look good but had no idea how good it would look. It's INCREDIBLE! I'm so happy with the work. It took 3 sessions even though it should only have taken 2 (I tapped out in the second session) and Robert was extremely understanding and professional. The front desk staff was extremely courteous and helpful through every step of the process. The shop was extremely clean and up to standard. I could tell they take pride in cleanliness. Lastly, all the other artists there were great. Keeping up conversations and laughing and having a good time. Very much a family feel. Every time someone finishes a tattoo they walk around and show everyone and talk about it. It's a really nice feeling when you're in pain and having people walk by and say things like "aw man, that is sick! I love how you did this part. How did you get that to look that way? It really looks great!". Overall a great experience. I will tell everyone I hear talking about tattoos to check out Ink and Dagger.

Luis did a great job on my tattoo. The place is really cool and staff is super friendly.

I was referred to Ink and Dagger by a friend and neighbor and it was an awesome experience. Worked with Brian Bennet and was so impressed by his creativity and attention to detail. Spent a lot of time making sure the design was what I wanted and very focussed on my tattoo. I will be returning - likely sooner than later. Thanks so much for a great experience!

Terrible experience altogether. Went in for a potential coverup consultation with Brian to which he basically told me was impossible. Then to not have wasted this time for all, I told him about my idea for a rib tattoo. He told me that he would not put it on the ribs , even though I’ve already had a rib tattoo, because that skin would expand and contract too much. In my mind basically fat shaming me because I am an average size woman. I wear an 8 I am not fat by any means and never had issues with my other tattoo. He continued to suggest putting it on my thigh even though I told him I thought thigh tattoos were ugly and didn’t want that. I ended up letting my husband take my tattoo appoiNtment because I did not feel comfortable fighting Brian on this or losing my $200 deposit even though it would’ve been 3 weeks ahead. BIG MISTAKE. Brian beat my husbands skin up. He bled on multiple occasions while he was being tattooed. Now it is over a week and his tattoo is still scabbed over, discolored and bleeding. He has had 9 previous tattoos so my husband knows how to take care of his tattoos. We ended up going to the doctor and found out not only was his tattoo having a reaction, it was also severely infected. We will never come back to this studio. The only reason this is not a 1 star is because the girl at the front actually was nice and had a personality

Michel Parisey got that dog in him. No cap. If you want some clean traditional work from a dude who plays no games, this is your man. Professional, polite, converses well, just an all around radical dude. Family man too. I respect that. Got turned onto him from a homie and I’ll never let another man or woman touch my body with a tattoo gun. My guy be drippin his ink up old school too. Only dude in the shop still using on old school tattoo gun. So you know he comin with that heat. Fire. For real. Book this man.

This was my first tattoo, Ink & Dagger is phenomenal. Izzy did my tattoo or should I say artwork. Couldn't be happier, top notch all the way. Worth the wait definitely plan on going back and getting more added to the already killer tattoo.

Got rework done on an 8 year old tattoo by Matt Brumelow. The color didn't set very well, and not being a poor college kid anymore, I knew this needed some love. I could not be happier with the result! He was swift, professional and we talked the whole session. Watching him do the pre work on his tablet was awesome and the way he executed this, while being respectful of the old design, is amazing. I will definitely be going back to him for my future projects. Highly recommend this shop.

Had a long consult with my artist over the phone. Booked an appointment a month out. Two days before my appointment, got a call that the artist didn't feel like the right fit... or was having trouble. Shop suggested I look an artist with a portfolio of pieces that don't reflect the long artist consult I had.. nothing in the portfolio looks like what I wanted.

They did refund my deposit and sort of softly apologize for wasting a month of time I could have spent finding an artist.. so.. I guess there's that.

This shop is awesome! The joking and laughter between the artists gives the place a fun and friendly vibe. I sat for 3 sessions on a 1/2 sleeve piece with the incredibly talented Robert Beeman. He is a true artist! I am so happy with the the finished piece and can't wait to show his work off to to the world!
