Good to know before you book
- Fine-line and micro work here demands a clear reference — bring high-res images and expect a short consult before the needle.
- Traditional pieces tend to be quoted by piece, not hourly. Ask for flash sheets if you want a same-week appointment.
- Larger Japanese pieces are usually booked across multiple sittings — plan for at least two visits.
- Realism and portrait work depends heavily on reference quality — clean, well-lit source photos make the biggest difference.
- Colour-heavy pieces benefit from a structured touch-up visit 4–6 weeks after healing.

Absolutely amazing experience! It was my first time getting a tattoo and Kaitlyn was awesome - told me everything I needed to know and made me feel super comfortable about the process. They do their due diligence when it comes to being clean and making sure you get exactly what you want. Will be back for sure!! Also they are all super friendly and genuinely care about your experience as a whole.
I had an amazing experience here! The shop was clean & had a great atmosphere. Constantin went above and beyond to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted. He was very patient and professional, and worked with me to change up the design a little bit to exactly what I was envisioning. He took his time and not once through the process did I feel rushed or that he was rushing, even though it was getting late. Constantin has a very gentle hand and his fine line work is absolutely stunning! Every person that works here is so friendly and easy to have a conversation with. I feel like sometimes tattoo shops can be awkward and unwelcoming (in my experience) but this was by far the best tattoo experience I’ve had!! Even though it was a bit of a drive for me, I’d do it again to get another tattoo from Constantin! I am just so beyond happy with how my tattoo came out! 10/10 would recommend!! 😊
I came in with a very specific tattoo idea and Jesse absolutely blew it out of the water. He absolutely knows what he is talking about and I cannot recommend enough that you listen to your artists recommendations. Jesse did an insane amount of work in an impressively short amount of time while maintaining an extremely high quality of work. On top of allllll of that his pricing is beyond fair especially considering the amount of experience he brings to the table. Do NOT hesitate. I'll try to come back and add photos of the finished product after session 2
