“Getting my first tattoo was intimidating, but Hunter at Lucky Gal is an absolute legend.I came in with a bunch of ideas, and Hunter was incredibly helpful in guiding my design. He gave me his honest opinion on what he thought would look best and which colors would go well together. He suggested where less is more so the design wouldn't look cluttered. I deeply appreciate an artist who uses their expertise to make sure the final piece looks amazing!The shop itself is an absolute trip. The decor is incredibly unique and funny—nothing prepares you for staring at a literal adult vibrator on the wall while getting inked.Hunter clearly loves what he does and is so nice. While we were working, we talked about the bar and arcade next door. After we finished, he was nice enough to take me over there and give me a full tour. It is such a cool, unique, horror-themed place filled with scary movie stuff and tons of characters like Freddy Krueger.If you want an honest, insanely talented artist and a memorable experience, go see Lucky Gal and make sure to ask for Hunter by name! I’ll definitely be back!”
