“My husband and I had the most incredible experience with Krystal! She did my husband’s very first tattoo along with our wedding ring tattoos for our 20th anniversary and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better artist.
From the moment we walked in, Krystal was kind, welcoming. She took her time, and made sure we felt completely comfortable every step of the way. Her professionalism really stood out, but what made the experience extra special was how personable and genuine she is. Our wedding ring tattoos are not only beautifully done, but they hold so much meaning for us—and she treated that meaning with the care and respect it deserved. The lines are clean, the detail is perfect, and the whole process felt thoughtful and intentional.
If you’re looking for a talented, professional, and truly gifted tattoo artist, Krystal is the one.“

Cannot speak enough praises for their care and thoroughness with their work. And you get stickers after you get tatted!“
