I got a walk-in the other day, small black line piece.
Positives: Great work on the art. Its been two days and has healed up really nicely so far. I don't see any splotching or fading so far. They were able to fit me in at a moments notice as well, but it didn't feel like a rush job.
Negative: After care procedures leave something to be desired. My artist didn't have any proper bandages so I left with a bit of paper towel stuck to me with tape. That and the bench I was on wasn't covered, which may not be standard, but it definitely makes the space feel cleaner.
I thought it was a bit pricey for the size considering I provided the art as well. It was ~$250 with tip for a piece that took less than 45 minutes. Not super mad at that, because you definitely pay for what you get, but I think $200 would have been more reasonable.
All-in-all not bad. Somethings could do for an improvement, but it isn't a bad place to get a simple tat.

All the guys here are super talented, knowledgeable and they're obsessed with keeping a sterile environment. I've gotten 2 large custom pieces done by Marko, I was well taken care of, comfortable and couldn't imagine going to anyone else for my tattoos. Marko emphasizes using techniques and colors that will look great for years and years, highly recommended.

This place is getting worse. I had previously 2 tattoos here. It was the best.
Last month I went for lion tattoo, with βChanceβ . I paid well with generous tip. Hell, this guy painted very ugly tattoo with a lot of shades.
I told him several times to watch it during the procedure. He never listen. Finally after 2 week I went Bach and showed all the wrong shades and disfiguring lines on the tattoo, he was still arrogant and dismissive. I offered to pay additional money for correction. He accepted after a lot of arguments. Please if you go for tattoos, since they are very arrogant, watch them while they do it.

I walked in the shop and it was very clean.
David was very friendly as he greeted me. He asked me what I wanted and showed me different styles. I agreed on one and then I changed my mind, he was fine with it. He went in the back and sanitized everything. He asked if I wanted to watch TV or listen to music. Once he started, he kept asking me if I alright. The experience was great and I love my tattoo.

I have been going to Marko here for years and I am always pleased with my tattoos! He is always super knowledgeable and lets me know what will look best OVER TIME which is so important because no one wants tattoos that wonβt look good in years. He is always a friendly and punctual. The only place I trust with my ink!
