Always love going to Vintage Karma! All the artists are so talented and kind! I posted a picture of my mom's tattoo and 2 of mine. I absolutely love this place!

Had a large leg piece done, two 6 hour sittings. Everyone was great, went out of their way to make me comfortable. I had to reschedule my second sitting due to a death in the family, had no trouble at all getting it set up. Highly recommend them.

Ainslie helped my confidence so much. I have a very large scar on my arm and people ALWAYS asked what happened. I was so self conscious. Ainslie is professional and caring and took time to listen to my concerns and research tattooing a scar the size of mine. With the cover up, not a single has noticed I have a scar and I ALWAYS get compliments on my work. I can’t wait to go back for some more work! Thanks Ainslie? You’re the best

Got my very first tattoo done here by Tash and it was awesome! She explained the whole process to me extremely well. She knew I was nervous and was super nice about it. Even though I got a smaller tattoo, she let me know if I needed a break to just let her know. Even used her tattoo gun with a little water at first so I could feel it to make sure I would be okay with it. Some of the other artists were joking around with us and the whole place was just super friendly and had a great vibe to it. And the tattoo itself is beautiful and turned out even better than I imagined.. Couldn't have asked for a better experience with my first tattoo. Highly recommend and will definitely be back for more in the future!!!

The best place to get tattooed! I have gotten some amazing tattoos there. One tattoo by Caleb and three by Killian. All the artists are all super talented and Laura is always so kind. They also have an amazing little shop out front with the best socks on the planet. You should definitely go there. 😊

I had been waiting for one of the artists to open their books for some time when I got an email to their listserv about an apprentice, Kris Evans. I look through her Instagram feed (peechfuhz) and couldn't believe this was "apprentice" work. I immediately contacted Kris to start a conversation about my first piece with her, and I was gobsmacked by the way she elevated my original thoughts to a new level.
We are halfway through the next tattoo, and Kris again took a rough concept and created a work of art! Kris is a joy to work with, being careful to explain everything and being perceptive and attentive in asking/suggesting a short break.
She has exceptional communication skills, finding that vision in her clients' concepts and bringing her art school training and immense artistic talent to bring a living work of art into being. Kris is nothing short of amazing, clearly an excellent addition to Ainslie, Caleb, and Killian.

Great attention to detail, very clean and comfortable environment. My artist Killian was fantastic. Worked diligently to get the piece exactly how I wanted and knocked it out quickly but precisely. Would highly recommend this shop.

Ainsley is working on my cover up. Done an amazing job both times. The other artists have beautiful portfolios and do great work. Would recommend 100% over the other shops I've been to!

I went in after seeing all the wonderful reviews and I was definitely not disappointed! Everybody was super friendly. Caleb did my tattoo and it came out way better than I imagined it would! I gave him some creative control and he did not disappoint. This is definitely my go to place from now on!

I love this shop! I have had all of my tattoos done here. Laura, who handles the scheduling and curates a cool curio shop, is great, even if she can't draw. The artists are all great and fun to work with. It's a cute place that feels super clean.
