phenomenal experience amazing cover up attention to detail great crew comfortable atmosphere

My experience with artistic encounters was phenomenal. JD did an amazing cover up of an old tattoo that I had lost part of due to some road rash in a motorcycle accident years ago. His attention to detail and ability to make my physical aesthetics match the art work made me more that pleased. Great job JD... as for the rest of the shop Billy Jack... you have a great crew. Everyone made me feel as comfortable as they could In an uncomfortable situation... great job

Good Service Friendly Staff Professional

Got my first tattoo here. They took good care of me before, during and after getting my tattoo. Billy Jack and his assistant Ana (sorry if I get it wrong) made me feel welcome and were engaging and having conversation w me which made it more personal and relieved that the place I chose to get my first tattoo were professional, friendly. Not to mention I did travel quite a bit. Love from Yakima, WA, thank you guys. I love my tattooπŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Poor Customer Service Unprofessional Attitude

my tattoo artist was good at their job on tattooing but attitude was why im putting 3 stars. went twice and was a first timer so i wasn’t expecting much since ive worked customer service, but i wasn’t approached at while i went to the counter to ask questions eventually they came and we did our discussion of business and left happy with a great work. Went back a second time because like i said they did great tattooing but i saw that they did the same thing to another customer and threw the book at him to look at-mind you he didn’t approach rudely or seemed to be intimidating for them to do that-so I left after seeing that. take this with a grain of salt if you’d like.

Favorite Shop Talented Artists Great Atmosphere

This shop is by far my favorite shop and I've been to alot. Shop is run by the man, the myth, the LEGEND Mr Billyjack Gunter. All my work has been done by Colin who is an amazingly talented and dedicated artist. Overall all the people there do wonderful work and it is a great atmosphere. Maybe just don't be a Karen and you shouldn't have any issues 😜

Friendly Staff Talented Artists Pricey but Worth It

First time here, and I will be back. There was no crowds, the staff was super friendly, helpful, and artistic. My tattoo artist, Dom, was super informative, pleasant, and detailed in her work. I am super happy with my piece. They may be considered pricey, but it was well worth it.

Great Service Fast Piercing Friendly Staff

I walked in on a whim to get my second holes in my ears. This was about two weeks ago. I was immediately greeted, filled out my paperwork, and was back with the piercer within 15 min. This was by far my best piercing experience- she was very fast and friendly, it was nearly painless! My ears were just a tiny bit sore right after, and I have had zero pain since. My holes are almost all healed already. I wish I could remember the name of the woman who pierced me, she was lovely and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for new holes. I remember that she has a bee tattoo and a cute little snake who lives in her booth.

Micah was phenomenal! I've been to several tattoo shops all over the country and he's one of the best I've ever worked with. Will definitely be back.
