Killjoy tattoo
“Let me start by saying my husband and I have tattoos from all over the United States, some of them are from very popular/expensive artists. Nate is the only person we each have several tattoos from because his work is so impressive.
The studio is immaculate. The staff is friendly and genuinely excited to share their art with you. Sometimes you will be disappointed by their advice but it’s 100% because they know what they are doing. You may not be thrilled that they don’t want to do the tiniest tattoo known to man but they are honest and care what their work looks like in a few years. I have had more comments on how beautiful my tattoos are than I can count. The work is nothing short of perfection.
Because of all of these reasons when my sweet, gorgeous, baby girl told me she wanted a tattoo for her 18th birthday there wasn’t a soul in the world I was going to trust other than Nate. Of course, she also wanted something giant! So I didn’t care how far out we had to book it, I was scheduling her with Nate. That was the only option and he fit us in to a cancellation.
Nate went above and beyond. Knowing this was her first tattoo he made sure to explain everything thoroughly from before the appointment to follow up care. He talked about the importance of eating a good meal, what clothes to wear to the appointment, everything an 18 year old isn’t going to think of. He made multiple versions of the design to make sure he had the perfect one. He checked on her the whole time to make sure she was comfortable and doing ok. He made sure she got a food break and he kept her laughing through the pain. He followed up the next day to see how she was doing and if she had any questions.
Could not ask for a better experience!!! Nate is knowledgeable, extremely talented, and takes pride in his work. I would recommend anyone in his shop because I know he is teaching his apprentices all the right qualities and skills. You can’t go wrong with this shop.”
