    To say my tattoo journey has been incredible because of Dawn is an understatement. I always dreamed of having a sleeve, but once I started working with her, I knew a full body of work was my destiny. Dawn truly listens—she could see my vision even when I struggled to put it into words. From just a few unclear thoughts, she created exactly what I was hoping for. At 56, Dawn has given me a level of self-confidence I never expected, and for the first time, I am not ashamed of my body

    Got my first tattoo - I could never commit to design until I lost someone very close to me and i instantly knew I wanted to get a tattoo. I found Dawn at Vigilante on reddit she was very friendly and helpful in getting things set up - I did book a few months out (not uncommon for tattoo shops). The day of Dawn was amazing and her work looks awesome. Now that I broke the seal when I decide on the next one, Vigilante will be my first call.

    Thank you!
