“My experience here was amazing! Everyone was so nice and made me feel very comfortable. I love how my tattoo came out. Thank you to Natascha!“

“What a great experience. This was my first time here but my family has been before. I will not go anywhere else again. Byron was mine and my daughter tattoo artist and I will request him every time. What a sweet, kind and pretty funny man.
Thank you again for making this experience great for my daughter and I. Maybe one day my daughter will become a tattoo artist.“

“This shop is so cute and welcoming. I’ve gotten a few little tattoos by Jesica and I’m in love with how they turned out. She is patient, attentive, and creates beautiful blackwork designs.“

“Sheawn did my second lobes and industrial!! He was very knowledgeable about the piercings and walked me through the process. Very funny and cool, definitely get pierced up by Sheawn!!“

“The experience was wonderful the artist was great very professional. Definitely will be booking again“

“I’ve had multiple tattoos done by Jamie, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. She’s incredibly talented, professional, and genuinely an awesome person to work with. Every time I come in, she takes the time to listen to my ideas, offers great input, and makes sure everything is exactly how I want it.

The shop is always clean and welcoming, and Jamie’s attention to detail is second to none. Every tattoo she’s done for me has turned out even better than I imagined. I constantly get compliments on her work, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

If you’re looking for a tattoo artist who’s skilled, professional, and makes the entire experience enjoyable, I highly recommend Jamie. I’ll definitely be back for more!“

“Rikki made me feel so comfortable getting my piercings! She was super informative, patient, and kind. Would absolutely get pierced by her again!“

“I spent a lot of time looking for a good artist to get my first tattoo(s) done and Skyler was amazing at making that happen!!

She was so friendly ( and fun, as was everyone in the shop! ) and great to work with! The designs I wanted came out looking perfect and even tho these were normally painful spots I almost didn't feel a thing ( which I'm sure part of it is thanks to her light hand )

I'm glad I trusted her to do my firsts!! :)“

“Took my 6 year old to get her ears pierced. Brad was SO good with her. She was shaking with nerves (she was so brave) but he did well distracting her. Definitely coming back for her second holes & my youngest to get hers done!“

“The coolest! I stopped by as a walk-in needing help with my earlobe piercings, and she gave me excellent advice. Never once did I feel stupid for asking beginner questions, and I walked out of there hoping I get a chance to come back sometime!“

“Absolutely phenomenal tattoo shop. Shaun is a master and an artist that runs a beautiful shop. I’ve done multiple sessions with Shaun and really have a good time. His line and attention to do detail in his trade along with his creativeness really sets my tattoo apart from others I’ve had done.
Now- I’m having Shaun work on my sleeve and fix all the mistakes on my old tattoos.

Couldn’t recommend Shaun and Raleigh Tattoo Company enough. Fantastic place where the quality of the work pays for itself.“

“I'm so glad I discovered MJ - I'll never go anywhere else for as long as I live in the area. His office is clean and fun and he is so easy to talk to. His work is stunning. 100% agree with everyone else's reviews - he is a GOOD guy and is an excellent choice for anyone who has ever felt uncomfortable or weirded out with any other tattoo artist.“

“I've been tattooed by Hannah several times now and she's consistently been warm, friendly, and very professional. She does amazing work and the studio is a very chill and queer-friendly space. Highly recommend her services.“

“Preeya did an amazing job on my brows. Perfect shape and very calming atmosphere.

Note: I have a scar on my left brow which the microblading didn't hide. I'm okay with that, I've had that forever.“

“I got my knuckles done by Ray and I loved it! Such a good job and he's willing to fix my other set of knuckles done by another artist for me. Both him and his wife are very nice and very talented. Highly highly recommend!“

“I had an amazing experience with Stylez! He did an incredible job bringing my vision to life, even though I know I was being a bit particular. He was patient, understanding, and nailed exactly what I wanted. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work, and the overall atmosphere was great. On top of that, the conversation made the whole experience even better—I felt like I was chatting with an old friend. Highly recommend!”“

“I absolutely love my tattoo. Ken was great. I showed him my idea design and he made it even better! He was kind and very informative. The session was comfortable and smooth. Definitely will be back for my next tattoo.“

“I love the work Nadir does - he has an incredible eye, my style is black and gray realism - perfection.“

“Got my nostril pierced here and it healed great! Cory did my piercing and made the whole experience a lot less nerve wracking especially since I’m super scared of needles!“

“Really nice place! I’ve gotten a few piercings here and every time they have come out nice and flawless. I’ve never had any issues with the jewelry or healing process. The workers are so kind great at what they do. Definitely will be back every time I want a piercing and plan to get a tattoo soon!“

“I just recently got my second tattoo from Nate at Femme Fatale. Nate does such amazing work. He listens and makes adjustments based on feedback, and draws upon his expertise to make an idea come to life. I couldn’t be more pleased.“

“I love how they do there job they don't be playing I love it in and out thank y'all Risk Takerz“

“I recently had my first tattoo done here on Monday, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I've been coming to this shop for my piercings for quite some time, and every visit has been positive. The staff is always professional, the pricing is fair, and I've consistently received excellent service.

Shannon was my tattoo artist, and he made my first tattoo experience comfortable and stress-free. He was professional, efficient, and attentive throughout the entire process, ensuring everything was set up properly and that I was comfortable from start to finish. He also took the time to bring my vision to life with great attention to detail, and the final result exceeded my expectations.

I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for quality work and outstanding customer service. I'll definitely be returning for my next tattoo.“
