By far one of the best tattoo experiences I’ve ever had. I treated myself for Valentine’s Day and walked in to such a friendly, welcoming vibe. Ruben was amazing — from the stencil placement to the shading, he absolutely nailed the vision I had for my first chest piece. I’m obsessed with how it turned out. I also got to meet the owner, who was incredibly sweet. The goodie bag with aftercare products and instructions was such a thoughtful touch and made the whole experience feel even more personal. Thank you all so much. I’ll definitely be back soon.
On today's visit to the shop, ha, DJ did this beautiful tattoo on my arm. initially went in for something I saw up for grabs on the shops Facebook story, but made changes and DJ accommodated with no hesitation and I absolutely love the outcome. He was very professional and clean, knew he stuff for sure. And made sure I was absolutely getting the tattoo I wanted. Will most Definitely be booking again soon.
Everyone in this shop is friendly. We went in for piercings. From the lady at the front desk (I hate I didn’t get her name) to Brian, the piercer. Brian is a WHOLE vibe and I truly enjoy it while he was doing the piercings! I like that he actually talks and engages with his clients! I’ll sure sure be back to get more from him!
