    My husband and I went In a few weeks ago, gave them a design for two tattoos, they booked a week out, which is crazy fast, we had an awesome experience, the shop was spotless, the guys were really nice, the tattoos are awesome. Jake did my husband's, and the other guy did mine ? I can't remember his name. Will be back for more

    Highly recommend. Honest, clean, and thorough. Only place I will go to — I have referred family members and friends, after I’ve been asked ‘who I go to.’ They stand by that as well and have been back several times. Many single tattoos and full pieces I’ve had done here, beautifully finished.Services: Fine line tattoos

    (Update!!! They owner has responded and is dealing with the situation. He has verified that her views do not represent the company. Will for sure give them a chance and try them in the future with such an understanding owner.)

    One of the artists made a TikTok about not allowing numbing cream. Although i personally don’t use it it just shows the disregard for their customers comfort and happiness. Stated in the video that the tattoo had to be “earned” but a tattoo is earned the moment you paid for it in my opinion. It’s really a shame because i was looking into new tattoos parlors and this isn’t too far away from where i am. Disappointing.
