Grimm Tattoo

What can I say? I had a positive tattoo experience here. Danni was awesome! She took my idea, which included two cover ups, and brought it to life. I can always appreciate when an artist doesn't stencil but freehands with some sharpies. She not only was able to knock out the cover ups, but was able to make the test of the tattoo amazing. If you are considering a walk in tattoo, I highly recommend Danni. She was fun, nice, and most importantly, a great tattoo artist

Came to Grimm to get my nip pierced for my birthday and Damon was absolutely amazing!!! 12/10 would recommend, very informative making sure to explain the piercing process and the healing process as well. Comfortable, clean, and quick! It’s only been a few weeks but my piercing is doing great no issues :) 100% would get pierced here again.

I had an old tattoo on my upper rib from years back that I got out-of-state that I wanted to add more color and life to and I went into Grimm on a whim to see what could be done. I got paired with Danni and from the get-go she was awesome. It was her idea to do a cover up of some stars on the old tattoo and turn them into flowers, which I instantly loved. She drew her own design, I liked it, but then once the whole thing was done on my skin I was 10x even more wowed! I feel like I have a personal garden oasis on my side now, and thanks to Danni, it's now a tattoo I'm so proud of instead of one I'm constantly trying to hide.

Damon is the BEST for piercings! Our girls night out included nose piercings and a Monroe. Damon is such an incredible human and made the entire experience! He’s so kind, professional, thorough and just an all around good dude! Won’t go anywhere else- he’s the best!

I went in awhile ago with a friend to get her first tattoo. This was the only place she did research on but we went as I got one as well (I have multiple tattoos) and by far, my tattoo from here is my favorite because out of all my others, it's so clean and doesn't look like a hot mess. Hers was very beautiful and so clean as well and we loved it! Staff is amazing. My birthday is coming very soon and we are coming in for a piercing "party" with some girls we work with, i'm very excited. I will definitely be back for more, even will have some of my older tattoos fixed up here

I think it’s a great establishment with fine work but I am dissatisfied with my experience. went in to get a piece of jewelry put in my Monroe hole and I bought the jewelry there the hole was already there I just needed to have someone actually put in the earring for me bc I couldn’t and less than 24 hours not even maybe 12 hours it had fallen out and so i paid 30 dollars for an earring basically. Needless to say I’m back where I started lol but as far as the staff goes they were extremely helpful.

My 1st Tattoo @55 years old and no problems. The artist was top notch no issues and he was very informative

i LOVED damon hes an absolute sweetheart and made me feel so comfortable, very nice guy and great attitude will definitely return!

Got an industrial and both nostrils pierced. Damon did a very professional and quick job. Can't wait to go back for more!!!

Poor service, unprofessional, and inexperienced. Did not take the time to stencil the image. Used the color grey to shade. Used one needle to shade. Used one needle to thicken an outline. DID NOT USE VASELINE. (Check out story below)

I was really excited to get an american traditional heart tattoo with two of my closest friends. I showed one of the associates the tattoo we wanted and rather than take the image and take the time to trace it line by line, she printed it out and drew this (below). It definitely didn't match the image I gave her, but I was told that it was just for the outline and that it would not look like that. I trusted them and proceeded with the process.

I was told Rachel would be tattooing us and wanted to check out her portfolio beforehand. All of my other tattoos are american traditional so I was looking for someone who specializes in that style. She didn't have a hard copy, but she did have an Instagram. I didn't see any american traditional tattoos, so I decided to go with Todd who seemed to have a lot of experience in tattooing in that style by looking at his portfolio.

As we began the process, he stenciled the same heart tattoo and placed it on my arm and told me I would have to "wait 10 minutes for it to dry in order for him to begin tattooing". I have never known any artist to do that, but I didn't judge. Ten minutes later, he starts to tattoo me using NO VASELINE. I asked him if there was a reason that he wasn't using any Vaseline and he told me that "it's because using too much vaseline will make the ink go away". Todd's gloves were completely dry.

When I looked over to actually see the tattoo, the outline was way too thin. I asked him if he was going to thicken it and he asked if I wanted him too. I said, "yes, i'm looking for it to match the thickness of my other ones". He checked them out and literally used the same needle to go over the first outline twice and to start shading. I told him to stop at that point because I felt that he didn't know what he was doing. Rachel was the only other artist available so I asked if she could finish it.

I understand that this is a big no no in the tattoo world but at that point I just wanted what I paid for. Rachel was flexible and kind enough to finish it but she had also made a mistake by mixing the color grey to use for shading. At first I thought she was using white to give it some highlights like my other ones but she wasn't.

I wouldn't advise anyone to get a tattoo from Todd. I started to question his portfolio when I compared it to his wall of designs. One thing that stood out the most was that the anatomy in most of his animals and characters were off.

It was a very disappointing experience overall. I gave them one star for pricing but that's it. I was really upset to have to pay for something I did not ask for. It literally looks like a rock on my arm and nothing like a heart.
