    Wes has done a majority of my tattoos and he always does a flawless job! I always leave happy and ready to return for more ink!

    I have had several tattoos done at Burning Hearts Tattoo over the years including a detailed family tree, matching tattoos with my sons, and a new one on my forearm. They ALL came out great. I highly recommend.

    Wes did an amazing job on my fine line tattoos. I couldn’t be happier with them! He was super cool and I will definitely try to book with him in the future! I was a walk-in this time, but Wes was nice enough to see me between other clients which I really appreciated!
