Amazing experience and I love my tattoo! I got a medium size flash from Kiersten. She was great to work with and did a fantastic job. The people working there were super nice and it was easy to get an appointment. I’ll definitely be going back!

This review has been a long time coming. I HATE my tattoo. It's not even close to what I asked for.
During the consultation I had given my price range at around $300. But I was shown by the artist a gorgeous tattoo on google that she said would cost between 400-500+ and during the consultation I told her I did not care about my budget If I can get a tattoo close to the quality of the reference. THIS WAS NOT WRITTEN DOWN, during the conversation and she argued with me at the appt about what I had said I wanted.
Because the appt was non refundable and we were talking in front of other clients and people I was extremely Embarrassed and told her that I was okay with the art but I wanted thin line work to match the same quality of the reference. She promised me everything, and more. But the tattoo came out looking inconsistent and odd. Plus I ended up paying over 400 because I said I would for a tattoo like the reference....
I also told her I did not care if we only did the line work for the tattoo if the end result needed more time I was willing to get it started. But she finished the tattoo with thick lines and heavy shading. While tattooing other staff looked at it and had blank face expressions and nothing much to say, and she did not even want to take a picture of it. Horrible I just want to cover it up!!

I am pretty sure I can't express how please I was with the experience in words but I'll try.
Steven is by far the most professional tattoo artist I have ever met. I had been tattooed before, many years ago, and have not been touched in 20 years. Steven worked with me on my idea and offered solutions to make it even better. His design was amazing. He was funny, professional, understanding, and just a great PERSON. Wow! I cannot wait to go back! I will update with pictures when it is 100% complete and healed.

Booking was done easily, whoever is running the instagram account is very responsive and it was appreciated! I had an appointment with Josh, who was very accommodating and professional. The work under my collar bones looks great! At an affordable price, I would definitely recommend.

John was great! Super nice and talented. This was my second tattoo and I was looking around for an artist/shop, but many were reluctant to do anything on my darker skin. However, John was very professional, worked on my design idea and came up with something great! It turned out beautiful and it's waaaay better than my first one. I highly recommend!

They do great work here. I have two tattoos from here and I am very pleased with both of them. Steve was helped a great deal with transforming the ideas in my head into a tattoo, and I could not be happier with how it turned out.

It has been my home base for tattoo work for many years now. I've also gained from professional to personal relationship with the owner and other artists. Whenever I am there making an appointment or getting tattooed the energy feels like home.
