With so many shops to pick from it’s tough I know. The stunt bike and shop dog chilling out front attracted me to it. I met Weezy and gave him a couple ideas and he drew up something I’d never think of. He’s done my almost entire sleeve now and he will continue to be my dude for the remainder of my Tattoo journey. Really amazing shop everyone in there is great. Go in and see my boy Weezy the man’s so good at what he does.
I was a walk-in initially planning to get a small flash type piece, but when I mentioned to Morgan that I’ve been wanting to get a pin up, he was eager and excited to make this happen for me. He was absolutely phenomenal, communicative, and did such amazing work. I am so incredibly happy with my new tattoo.
Walked in with a group of friends and Nick was able to accommodate all of us. He was personable and kind — a few gals were getting their first tattoos and he eased all their nerves. I love my new tattoo and would happily get tattooed by Nick again!
