Umbrella Ink

The person up front didn't tell me what I needed to bring, as a minor, so I had to have my birth certificate brought to the parlor which delayed the appointment. Also, I experienced a fairly bad ink blowout, which another artist told me about even after I sent a photo of my healed tattoo to Mary. She never mentioned anything though I voiced my concern about it; she said everything looked fine. Ink blowouts are caused by poor technique. It also does not match the design that the stencil was taken from, which is kind of baffling. Later I was told that Umbrella Ink is not a reputable place for tattoos. I wish I would have known before I got mine done!

I got a tattoo here about 5 years ago..So a late review but just wanted to say mine is a circular line work and was done perfectly and has aged perfectly. Great work..

I got my first tattoo today from Umbrella ink and I have to say I love it. The pricing was excellent, the staff was friendly and I feel like I'm only ever going to get a tattoo from Umbr ella. Light handed and efficiant, Umbrella tattoo has an A-plus in my book. :)

Went in for a tattoo, told the artist what I wanted, they had a week to draw it. Called me an hour& a half b4 the appointment wanting a picture. I told them from the get go I wanted them to draw it, not a photo to copy. And they didnt call the right phone number, called me, didnt leave a message instead of calling my wife who the tattoo was for when they took her # also. Isn't the point of a tattoo originality? Not copying. All that for a $20 deposit when they did nothing

Extremely helpful in doing a cover up tattoo that other shops did not want to do. Great work. Getting more soon.

Umbrella ink is the Premier Boutique tattoo shop of Northwest Indiana. From the time you come in the door to make your initial appointment till the time you leave after getting your fantastic tattoo you are literally treated like family. If you claim there's a better tattoo shop in Northwest Indiana I will call you a liar and I will fight you.

The lady upfront is so rude. I was disappointed with the place as soon as I walked in. No one greeted me and there was not much of a friendly atmosphere. The lady taking my name was condescending and seemed bothered I was even there. I ended up going to A.S.G. Tattoo in Valpo instead and I'm so glad I did. Much more friendly, amazing job, and the actual artist came out to talk to me about what I wanted.

Fantastic shop! Great atmosphere and artists. Lui really did a great job! Going back for many more sessions

the guy tattooing my moms foot showed up 15 minutes late didn't apologize or even greet us, he proceeded to smoke a cig then go in side and we followed he wasn't rude but he wasn't nice, he did not do what my mom asked for and he messed the sizing on the names which were traced on, so it should be a pretty simple task to follow lines, and he did not color the flower in like my mom wanted, felt dirty in there , would not recommend going there if you wanted a good tattoo.

I went in and they did a amazing job! I had louie, and he was quick and on point! I will be going back hopefully soon for another appointment!
