“I've been a faithful Evolved customer for over 20 years now. Mike Kerin has done all of my tattoos, and when he moved away for a while, I chose to stop getting tattoos instead of letting anyone else do them. Now that he's back, I'm feral for the return to ink and awesomeness. Even though I now live up near Cleveland, I make the 2+ hour drive just to see him. Currently, he's resurrecting a phoenix I had done 20ish years ago. It's freaking gorgeous and I cannot recommend him enough. The facility itself is clean, safety focused, and has a great vibe. I haven't interacted with any staff that I don't end up totally vibing with. This place deserves its status as numero uno in the Columbus tattoo scene.“

“I’ve been coming to RJ for years, and there’s reasons for that. He’s not only a great artist, he’s a great dude who takes pride in his work.“

“Working with Jordan Rookus on a geo tat. Very professional and accommodating. Able to take a few thoughts and ideas of mine and turn it into something 10 times better than I imagined. Big fan. Looking forward to scheduling the rest of our sessions to finish my sleeve.“

“I can’t say enough super nice, detailed, on time and respectful. And I’m in love with my tattoo being waiting for years to have it. I’m glad he was able to make it come true. Blessing Roa“

“Evolved is the best place to go in the Columbus area! Just got my third tattoo from an Evolved artist and I couldn't be happier. I got a watercolor piece from Charity and it's amazing! Not only do I have a permanent masterpiece but Charity is also a joy to work with. She's genuinely interested in making it a great experience and making sure you love your tattoo. I can't recommend her and Evolved enough.“

“I cannot recommend Milly at Pressure Ink enough! She took my vision and turned it into something even more beautiful than I imagined. Her talent, creativity, and passion for her work are evident in every detail of the tattoo.

Not only is she incredibly skilled, but her pricing is fair, and she truly takes the time to make sure you’re comfortable and happy throughout the entire process. My tattoo has a very special meaning to me, and she honored that in a way I’ll cherish forever.

This isn’t my first tattoo from Milly—I have multiple pieces by her—and I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with my skin. Every experience has been exceptional, and I leave happier every single time. If you’re looking for an artist who genuinely cares about her clients and delivers amazing work, Milly at Pressure Ink is the one.“

“The shop is clean and inviting. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Jester Morningstar took the designs concepts my wife and I had and elevated them beyond our expectations. Her tattoo skills are awesome. It was and easy sit to get the tattoos completed. Highly recommend Jester Morningstar for your tattoo needs.“

“Maddy did a great job on a simple arm tattoo I wanted last minute…she took her time and made sure the placement was perfect. She made sure I was comfortable and the atmosphere was great with the other clients and artists. All the artist are very supportive of each other and you can tell they want the clients to leave happy. Overall a great experience!!!“

“Well tomorrow I head in for my 3rd price from the studio, but my second from Kade. I have been raving about him since I got my first from him, this time it is the cover up that I have for almost 10 years now. He is funny, and amazingly talented. I felt no real pain (but that is just me and his lighter touch). He is now my only artist unless I want something he can't do. There was actually not a lot of plasma or anything as the tattoo healed, I was impressed, not sure if that was him or my skin or both.“

“I've never gone anywhere else for a tattoo, and never will. Caleb Ledley is world-class. Ask about photorealistic dog portraits, because I've never seen better.“

“Always a nice time here. Never left less than amazed by the work I've received. Tattoos are reasonably priced, the colors are beautiful and they make sure your comfortable as can be when in that much pain. Zak has been my go to for a few years now and I would be hard pressed to go else where. Ive come in with very specific things and I've had him come up with a few right on the spot from a half idea I had. Never ceases to amaze!“
