“My friend and I got our first tattoos here about a month ago. Lucas was great even from the exchange of emails he was so friendly. My friend and I searched lots of places and we chose this one because of their great customer service and value. Everything went smoothly and GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. I was lightheaded after and they were great. I laid down and they put cold towels on me and offered me Lucas’ moms cookies. Made me feel so comfortable and amazing. Lastly, I love my tattoo and so does my friend. It was a great experience and I will definitely be back!” – Geraldine Cifuentes

“This is an amazing place to get your tattoos done at! I highly recommend going here. Just yesterday I went for my first ever tattoo appointment and everything leading up to it was so smooth as they were very patient and friendly while booking my appointment. They answered all of my many questions and were very accommodating towards what I had in mind for my tattoos. When I walked into the studio there were proper procedures in place for COVID and everything looked very clean and safe. I had Jeff as my tattoo artist and he was very kind and helpful in making me comfortable and making sure the placements and designs were exactly what I wanted. The whole experience was very enjoyable and in the future I will definitely only go here for my tattoos!” – Kate Mayhew

“I got my memorial tattoo (for my Dad who passed away a month ago) from Natalie. I cannot thank her enough. She was 100% professional, welcoming, easy to talk to and super reassuring when I asked her to move the placement like four times. Not to mention her work is fantastic, super clean lines for my script. Everything was super clean, and I felt very safe. I am incredibly happy how my tattoo turned out, and I am so grateful.” – Sara Cartwright

Vincent was the artist that did my tattoo and I am so obsessed and in love with it! They are also great at explaining after-care and what they recommend. I felt so comfortable here, it was everything I ever hoped it to be.” – Alaina Rose
