Most authentic tattoo place I've been. Tyler was my tattooist. Great work very professional and a lot of fun to have him do your tattoo. I've had 4 tattoo artist. Tyler was the best. I will go back to him. Even from RI.

Don't bother going to this location if you expect your artist to show you examples of their previous work. It takes acquired skill , from trial and error for an artist to be good at what they do.
To conclude the staff is Highly unprofessional and not recommended.

Decent place - quick service - lots of loiterers out front - not sure what was going on but overall, if needing another piercing or ink, will go again.

Had 5 piercing with no issues. Always professional and friendly. The entire staff is amazing, service is fast and any questions I ever ask they answer honestly. I plan on making this my spot for all my art work I want done.

I think my piercer was Carl? He is a MAGICIAN. I have had my nose unsuccessfully pierced twice and it HURT. Carl did it in no time at all, it barely hurt. I'm hopeful this one will be the piercing I can change out regularly after it heals. I've also had a tattoo done by James, years ago, and it was very clean and professional. Would definitely go back.

people let me tell ya bout the best experience I've had getting work done!
I was lucky to get work done by Tyler. He was incredibly communicative, gave expert advice and worked with me to finish out part of my half-sleeve. He was kind and friendly. Honestly, for this session, I was the most calm I have ever been with any of my pieces. Pain was minimal, results are BEAUTIFUL.
The space was clean, warm and comforting. there is clearly a home feel.
The entire experience was wonderful. The check in was quick and efficient, all COVID-19 guidelines were followed.
Tyler and other staff had great conversations with me, which has not been my experience with other artists/shops.
Seriously, if you are in the mid-south area and looking for beautiful work, a great atmosphere and wonderful people, come to Illusion Ink!

Mike did a fantastic job on my tattoo for my deceased son. He made my heart smile. I was nervous but, he talk to me all the way through the process. Great guy and I will be back.

FRONT STAFF WAS SUPER FRIENDLY. But my piercer Chris was not. CUSTOMER SERVICE is everything. My piercer was not friendly, he didn’t greet me or even ask how i was doing , all he said was “lay on the table” then “get up slowly” . For one i was so nervous to get a belly ring , he did nothing but say “slow your breathing down so the piercing won’t mess up” then he was moving super fast… I believe that if a customer is nervous about whatever it should be your job to try to smooth them and put their mind at ease as much as you can. I do like my belly ring BUT i wish i saw the other reviews beforehand and my boyfriend said he wish i told him because he would NOT have recommend this place . I drove 28mins for poor service from the piercer . Maybe it’s because the color of my skin. But you have to know in a place of business you will encounter all race and backgrounds and if you only want specific people ,let it be known but don’t give a paying customer shitty service. I normally don’t even leave reviews weather they are good or bad, but this was a must especially because i saw reviews AFTER the fact of bad experience with the same piercer.
