Kade has done my work. ?Clean environment and they will work with your budget to make you look cool AF!“

“We had booked out two full days at the shop to complete one tattoo and get two more new ones with Paul. We were traveling from the east coast, and our flights were cancelled due to the hurricane hours before our flight. The front desk was so helpful and kind, and worked with us to find a solution that works for them and us. My husband and I cannot express how quickly, empathically, and professionally this was handled. We already rescheduled and booked new flights. The artists here are super talented and we’re so excited to come out. Thank you again, Ironheart and Paul!
