Unprofessional Poor Communication Cancelled Appointment Long Wait Time Not Important

I had a very unprofessional experience with Josh Crotty a tattoo artist at this shop. I cant speak for any other tattoo artists here.

I have gotten two other tattoos from him in the past and wanted to finish my foot piece. After emailing back and forth for a month (July to august), then paying the deposit, I got scheduled for an appointment for two months later (October).

The day prior he cancelled via email. In an attempt to reschedule (again all via email) I was given two days that he had open, unfortunately I was not. He then stated I would need to wait until he has an opening in January..... When things changed in my availability I contacted him via email and then with the shop to possibly see if he was still available. I then received an email stating he is no longer going to do the tattoo and refunding my deposit.

It would have been nice if there was a different solution found. And to be honest, I feel as if my tattoo wasn't important like the other ones he had on his books.

Clean Professional Friendly Talented Artists Amazing Job Detail Oriented Worth the Money

Benchmark is clean, open, professional, incredibly friendly, and of course they have incredibly talented artists. Kyle Allen designed and applied my tattoo and he did an amazing job, and to top it off he was very friendly. He was very detail oriented and took in to account orientation, placement, etc.
I also had a chance to see Kyle James create a tattoo for another client, and he too was focused on the need of his client while making sure it would look amazing for years.
base price is 75$ and hourly rate 200$, but worth the money.
I will be back for more tattoos.

Talented Artist Reasonable Pricing Good Listener Funny

I saw Kyle James at benchmark tattoo. He did a beautiful floral piece on my left forearm and it is AMAZING!! Told him exactly what I wanted and he drew it up for me. It’s perfect! Listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. And he’s also funny as hell. Pricing isn’t unreasonable either! $300 for roughly 2 hours. Go book an appointment with him!

Safe and clean Professional Talented staff Great location

I've been to this place 5 times for myself, and I just love the work I've received. I've referred even 3 family members that have gotten tattoos they love as well. Safe clean & professional. Located in a really nice area in Duluth. Very talented staff that Kyle, the owner, has filled his studio with. I'll be back for more!!

Great Experience Helpful Staff Talented Artist

Very happy with my visit to Benchmark. It was my first time getting a tattoo and the whole staff was very helpful and kind. I was worried it would be an overwhelming experience but I felt at ease. Mike did a really great job on my wrist bands and made sure I was completely happy before proceeding.

Quality Work Professional Fun Flexible

I have had the pleasure of being tattooed by Erica, Mike, and now their apprentices Madison. Every single time, they have been professional, fun, and flexible! From the initial consultation (whether it's been in person or via email) to the moment I leave the shop, I have no doubt that I am receiving quality work and good advice! Even though I don't live in Duluth anymore, Benchmark will always be my go-to for tattoos!

Great Experience Talented Artists Long-lasting Tattoos

I could not be happier with the pieces I got here. I had SUCH a good experience. The artists were all so kind. Ashley Mae was amazing to work with. She was flexible and open to my ideas, but also put her own spin on the piece. It's been a few years since I've gotten my tattoos from here, and they still look so amazing. I get compliments on them all the time!

Talented Artist Creative Supports Other Artists Classy Tattoo Shop Welcoming Atmosphere Highly Recommended

I absolutely love love love my tattoo I got from Kyle! I get compliments on it all the time. Kyle is not only creative and a talented artist, he is open-minded & listens to his customers. I think it is awesome that he supports other artists with the art gallery in his shop! The art work changing on a monthly basis always makes it fun to stop in and see what's new! Benchmark is a very classy tattoo shop where anyone can walk through the doors and feel welcomed & comfortable. If you are looking for a new piece of art for your body or home, I highly recommend the Benchmark Tattoo and Gallery!
