Darren, new artist to the team did amazing work. I couldn't have asked for a better idea for my tattoo (totally his idea!!). The work was smooth and relatively painless and the finished product blew me away!

So I finally got in contact with this shop after the artist refused to speak with me until I spoke with their booking manager when I asked "how much on average do you charge for a leg sleeve?"
I then reached out to the booking manager and this is how the conversation went.
-booking manager *me
-Amanda needs a minimum of 7-8 full-day sessions on a full-leg sleeve. Depending on the intricacy and size of the final designs, an additional session may
be needed.
-A full-day session is approx 6-8 hours a day with design time included within the sessions to ensure you're fully satisfied with the final designs :)
*Oh shoot that's a long time why 7-8 days I get the hours but that's allot of days
-Could take a shorter amount of sessions but just depends on the designs :)
-We could always start off with like a lower leg sleeve first and then see how much she's able to get done within that amount of time
*Well for the full sleeves if we do that time frame how much would the cost be on average?
-Her full-day rate is $1,600-$1,800 per session in which all we would need is a 50% deposit in order to reserve appointment dates.
***This equates to $12,800 dollars and they want $6,400 upfront to reserve an appointment not even at the first session.***
I would never pay that much for a tattoo mainly going through that much unessesarry pain 7-8 days of 6-8 hours of tattooing and your charging me 6400 do reserve an appointment is extortion and forces the person in a bind after they start. The time frame also causes unnecessary inflammation which damages the tattoo.
**Go anywhere else on island thousands of people do quality work you'll just have to wait a bit for an appointment 👍🏼

If you’re looking for a tattoo place, look no further cause this is your place. Communication was amazing and fast and booking was easy. 10/10 recommend booking here. I personally booked with Zeus and I could not be happier with my tattoo. He is extremely talented!

My fiancé Gabby and I flew in from California STRICTLY for a 2 day session @ Skin Design Tattoo w/ the Homie’s Zues and Christina Choi !! My girl and I were both ecstatic with their work! Zeus’ tribal pieces on my hands were impeccable. Christina tatted a lion on my throat-I was laying flat and the pattern was upside down, she killed it! She also did a custom Medusa hand piece for my girl that is definitely magazine/expo worthy. So appreciative to them all, from booking to ink, badass crew!! Recommend to everyone!!!

I had the pleasure of being tattooed by the great Robert Pho. The whole experience was amazing! Everyone at the shop was very friendly. Jesse was especially helpful with ensuring everything went smoothly. Will definitely go back to finish my sleeve!

Noiz did a phenomenal job, and I’m glad I found him. If you’re looking for dark themes, he is the go-to man.

I came in on pretty short notice and was able to book a session with a Ricky, his artistic ability and personality made the whole experience amazing. Would definitely recommend him, however every artist from this shop is amazingly talented and kind, the studio is beautiful and clean and the even the receptionist Jordy made me very comfortable and happy to be there. The piece I got was rather large and Ricky did it all in one session and it couldn’t have been done any better honestly. 11/10 for this place, don’t even bother anywhere else, this is the place to go.

My tattoo artist was Lynn, and she did a great job. She was very friendly and professional. Got 2 tattoos in 3 days, and now when it’s almost summer (and time to wear shorts lol) i always hear compliments from random people that those tattoos on my legs are awesome. Location is perfect, easy to get and the shop is very modern and has beautiful view. Highly recommend Lynn and this shop. Can send my tattoo pics if u will be interested!
