I had planned a trip to Salem and wanted to make it special by getting my first tattoo here. I researched so many shops in the area, and this was the best one I came across. I walked in and was greeted by Edwin. He was very accommodating to me and I think I waited max 15 minutes to fill out the paperwork and for him to draw up the stencil. I was in and out within an hour tops. He made sure that I was comfortable and reassured me that if at any point I needed a break to just let him know. He explained everything during the tattooing process and aftercare. I can’t recommend any shop more.
I went here to get a very unique 3 paw prints to honor my 3 cats that had passed. Brianna aka Zombri was a Rockstar with the ink and needles. She nailed my vision perfectly and was a complete artist and professional every step of the process. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the talented artists here.
We came in on a whim to get similar but not matching tattoos to commerate our time in Salem. Everyone was so friendly, patient, and accommodating. It was a bright well lit studio. I felt comfortable, and our tattoos are amazing. Panda did mine and I love it. Such a great experience.
