This shop is super clean! I have been to this shop twice for art by Casey Livingston and he has always taken my needs into deep consideration and only done what I am comfortable doing in a session. His work heals great and is absolutely beautiful. Great conversation as well! He also does free touch ups on his work if for any reason you’d like more shading after it’s healed. (Please use your common sense when getting tattoos anywhere. The after care is your responsibility for the way a tattoo heals not the artist’s.)
The only reason I’m giving this 2 stars is because this place was beautiful and super clean and everyone is super talented except for Casey. They have an artist named Casey Livingston who claims he’s been tattooing for 6 years which I incredibly doubt. I have attached a picture of my “cover up” we sat there and talked about how we were gonna cover this tattoo for an hour. He said he could cover it up with some roses and that it would all work out. He gets done and it didn’t cover ANYTHING and goes “well there’s only so much I can do with floral” like if you couldn’t cover it don’t say you could and then screw up my arm. He didn’t apologize and didn’t even offer to fix it and when I asked him about it he said he’d need to charge me for the fix even tho it was his mistake.. He also advertises that he does “free touch ups” but when I asked him to touch up my elbow piece he did that has faded and obviously his fault (which I have NEVER had happen with a tattoo) he told me I’d need to pay to get a touch up. I have NEVER seen an Artist charge for touch ups. I also tried to talk again to him about the poorly done cover up and I was BLOCKED so now I’m stuck with some terrible tattoo that I’m gonna have to pay to get fixed when he should’ve just fixed it in the first place. DO NOT GO TO CASEY
Me and my wife love coming to this place. These guys know what they’re doing even if we’re not sure what we want. They always have great recommendations and great professionalism. We’ve recieved tattoos by Ricardo and Sergio they’re both amazing artist I highly recommend them!
