This was my daughter's first time getting a tattoo and I believe it was the best experience I could've asked for! Her tattoo artist, Alyssa Nichols, was super informative and really helped me understand what she wanted with her choice of tattoo. They even had a cute ceremony at the end where she rung a bell for getting her first tattoo! We will absolutely be returning for her next tattoo. Also the availability was super convenient and the atmosphere of the parlor was extremely warm and welcoming with snacks+waters. Please give this women owned business some love they deserve it all!
Alyssa was amazing! She answered all my questions and was very kind and patient throughout the whole process and did amazing on my tattoos. The environment in general was also very welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be going back for my next one!
I had such an amazing experience here. The shop was super clean and very inviting. Alyssa blew me away with how detailed she made my tattoo. This was such a special piece and she truly made my dream come true. I could not recommend this shop enough!
