⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Uplifting 5-Star Experience @ Wicked Needle

We had an extraordinary day at Wicked Needle, where the gifted Caleb Ledford helped us create lasting memories through the art of tattooing!

What a great experience!! The facility is well kept and the customer service was amazing. I got a small, fine line tattoo by a new(er) tattoo artist named Caleb.

All of the staff seemed friendly and respectful, I’ll definitely be going there again if I ever want another tattoo or piercing.

Very clean shop. They are very professional and willing to answer all questions. I have multiple tattoos from here. I absolutely love Miles he is amazing! My best friend and I had him draw us a special tattoo that was very personal to us, and he did an awesome job. Taking our ideas and making it into an amazing tattoo, then spending time reworking it until we were completely satisfied. Will continue to go here for all future work.
