9525 Ackman Rd, Lake in the Hills“Ive been to a few Tattoo Shops. When I was going though different places to find a new location I cam across Creative Tattoo. I saw Chris's work and decided to give him a shot. I first walked in the place is wide open and inviting, loved the atmosphere. I was looking for a vader stitch tattoo. Sent the work to chris amd of course every new shop and artist your hesitant. But man i have to say he knocked ot out of the park and everybody loved it that was on 9/20. Just yesterday decided to get a zombie Micket Mouse done and again knocked it out of the park. If you havent been here you need to check them out. Chris, Chad, Dylan, Matt and Josh all do amazing work and they make you feel like you are part of the family. I found my new home.“
“My mom came for Jada and got wonderful service! Jada performed Ombré Brows (Micro Shading) on her and she is in love with the results. Jada was very professional and personable. It’s been over a year since she’s gotten them done and all she does is get a wax, every 3-4 weeks and they are still beautiful! Very happy client!!“

340 W Main St, Carpentersville“I've known at least 10 people who've been tattooed by Chris and each has raved about him, so when I was finally ready to get my first tattoo I knew exactly where I needed to go. Chris was SO kind, professional, clean, methodical, warm, and very patient with me as this was my first tattoo! His attention to detail from placement to actual tattoo blew my mind. Not to mention the tattoo studio itself was inviting and instantly made me feel comfortable. If you're someone who has never had a tattoo before or you already have a ton, Chris will 1000% make your first/next tattoo experience perfect all the way around!“

1211 W Algonquin Rd, Algonquin“Just finished getting a full arm tattoo at Fox Valley Tattoo, and I have one word: WOW. This place is next-level amazing. The entire process was quick, efficient, and honestly? Shockingly painless. I came in expecting to suffer a little (it’s a whole arm, after all!), but the artist made it feel like a breeze.
Not only did the tattoo turn out insanely clean with zero bleeding or blowouts, but the attention to detail was insane. Every line is crisp, every shade is smooth, and I walked out looking like a walking piece of art. He also touched up a previous tattoo that was messed up without hesitation saying “I was just in the neighborhood”.
And can we talk about the vibe? He was funny, personable, and genuinely awesome human. He made the experience feel more like hanging out with a friend than sitting through a long tattoo session.
If you’re thinking about getting inked big or small do yourself a favor and come to Fox Valley Tattoo. Don’t even think twice. This is where artistry meets comfort, and you walk out feeling like a rockstar.
Your skin deserves this kind of artistry.
Your soul deserves this kind of vibe.
And your wallet will thank you later.“

1540 Carlemont Dr # F, Crystal Lake“Loved it. Colin was great. Will definitely be back.
Update: I went back almost a year later. It was just as good an experience the second
time, if not better. Colin is so personable! I have terrible social anxiety, but he made me feel very comfortable, like an old friend. Tattoo turned out great, too. I trust him to make certain creative decisions. 10/10, will be back.“

216 E Chicago St, Elgin“I came in for a cover-up, and I’m honestly blown away by the results. The artist completely transformed my old tattoo into something I’m proud to show off. The detail, color, and creativity went above and beyond my expectations.
From start to finish, the experience was smooth — the shop was clean, the staff was welcoming, and my artist took the time to really listen to what I wanted. You’d never even know there was an old tattoo underneath!
If you’re thinking about getting a cover-up, I highly recommend Don Perry at Topnotch Tattoos. He is a true professional and masters of his craft. I’ll definitely be coming back for more work in the future.“
