Valley Of The Ink’d

I have a grand total of 15 tattoos, and another upcoming, all done by Jayden, and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else!! The atmosphere is absolutely amazing, my tattoos have all healed beautifully, and the piercings that she did when she offered them originally all healed wonderfully as well! I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else, nor do I ever plan to. Jayden and Erin are both amazing at what they do, and after almost 3 years of being tattooed by Jayden, I can confirm that Valley of the Ink’d is the most comfortable, friendly, and amazing place to receive a tattoo!!

I went to Valley of the inked and was tattooed by Jayden on March 23 2021. I was well aware that she was a newer artist with all of her certification. She explained how she can fill in with color, but is not able to shade color yet. Totally fine. So during the tattoo, it felt a little rough and painful, but I didn’t think much of it. From the moment we left, my skin looked a bit weird under the saniderm she gave me, and I just figured she may have gone a little heavy handed- nothing a touch up couldn’t fix. However, the tattoo leaked ink, blood, and other fluid tremendously. More than I’ve ever experienced with another tattoo. Six days after receiving the tattoo, the skin started to peel off and slip down my leg to reveal open flesh, pus, and fluid. I had to rush to urgent care to get it looked at. Throughout the day, more skin continued to fall off. After the Urgent care visit I have started to take care of it. I got my results back from them testing for infections and it is almost certain that there is evidence of heavy trauma by the needle to the skin after being heavily overworked to the point my skin died in that spot. After contacting them and sending them pictures about everything, they originally tried to shift the blame to me and stated it was likely an allergic reaction to the ink used or that I got something like cat dander into it. Then they just apologized and offered a touch up when it would eventually heal. (I politely declined). However, they have repeatedly underestimated the severity of the damage, and said it was merely irritated. It’s going to take MONTHS to heal. I wouldn’t suggest going here, it has taken a huge toll on my life. Every movement I make hurts, I have to be extra cautious of my everyday activities, and I have to stop doing things that I really enjoyed doing because it could be dangerous for the “tattoo”. My primary care physician is very worried about my skin’s integrity and health after the trauma I received after the tattoo. I’m on heavy antibiotics because everyone’s worried about if I contracted MRSA. My primary care physician is ordering blood tests to make sure I didn’t contract anything else. While the experience at the shop was nice, I didn’t expect to have to live with lasting, permanent tissue damage. This shouldn't have happened- newer artist or not.

Upon entering the atmosphere is of pure majik. Beautiful handmade jewelry. Bags of goodies were avaliable for free. The plants here in the windows were absolutely thriving! They felt so lively and vivacious!

I am very satisfied with their services! I brought my 8 year old in to get her ears peirced. They were very accommodating when they noticed her getting nervous. She was given stuffed animals who also had their ears done! They talked to her the entire time and explained what they were doing. She was so brave! She picked her earrings out. They have flat backs so no pin pokes to her head! The earing are slightly longer so they can swell and heal healthy. Her favorite part was holding her unicorn 🦄. Magical.
Thank you Valley Of The Ink'd!

I’ve gotten tattoos here from both Erin and Jayden and they do excellent work. They are both super nice and the shop is clean and professional. Can’t wait to go back! Totally recommend anyone looking for a tattoo to check them out!

Beautiful, bright, and clean shop. The artists, Erin and Jayden, are top notch! I am so happy with my work and have many friends in the area that are loyal customers! I love supporting women owned and run businesses.

Erin did an amazing job! My new tattoo is so beautiful and exactly what I wanted!!! Thank you for a wonderful experience and even more a beautiful tattoo!!!

I’ve known Erin since high school and knew she was the perfect one to do this tattoo for me! She did an amazing job and helped distract me and shared many stories and laughs during this experience. The atmosphere of the shop was perfect, so clean and calming! This was my 13th tattoo and by far the best experience I had! Can’t wait to come back for more!

Erin was so amazing. She was able to take me and my three sisters last minute to do memorial tattoos for our brother. Would definitely recommend and cannot wait to go back for more. 😊 Thanks again Erin!

Great place, bright & clean.
I just love my new tattoo. Done by artist Erin. Yes I will be going back.

I got both my ear lobes done, my piercer was incredibly nice and professional. Very knowledgeable and answered questions regarding other piercings I've been looking at doing as well. She Got them done quickly and painlessly. She mentioned that she's going to start as a tattoo apprentice soon and I'll definitely look at getting in with her when she starts! Thank you!
