“attempting to reach out to someone through the reviews as I haven’t had any luck contacting anyone. (this place is amazing and tattoos are very well done) however I purchased a certificate of $400 about 3 weeks ago and haven’t received it my boyfriends hoping to go tomorrow and this was supposed to cover it. i’ve tried calling,
emailing, dming via instagram so im not sure what else to do hoping you guys see this so we can get it sorted“

“My favorite tattoo parlor. I’ve now been tattooed by Jayme and Vanessa and both artists are amazing. You can tell they love their art, and take great pride in their work. It’s always a great atmosphere, great music, great chats, and great tattoos. The bookshop is adorable too. I will always recommend!“

“Been going to Amanda for over 10 years, every tattoo has been with them, have a full sleeve and full torso tattoo with them. Has been an amazing experience!“

“From the moment I walked into Ink+Opal, I knew I was in the right place. The studio is clean, modern, and has a welcoming atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. But what truly elevated my experience was Hayley, the incredibly talented tattoo artist who brought my vision to life.
I had a complex design in mind, one that required both precision and artistic flair. Hayley listened attentively to my ideas, offering helpful suggestions and insights without ever overshadowing my vision. She expertly translated my somewhat vague description into a stunning piece of art, meticulously crafting each line and detail.
Her skill is undeniable. Hayley's hand is steady and precise, her technique flawless. The entire process was comfortable and professional; she checked in frequently to ensure my comfort level and patiently answered all my questions. Her passion for her craft is evident in every aspect of her work, from the initial consultation to the final touches.
Beyond her technical skills, Hayley is a true artist. She possesses an intuitive understanding of design and composition, managing to seamlessly blend my ideas with her own creative input to create a truly unique and breathtaking tattoo. The result is far beyond what I had initially imagined.
But what truly sets Hayley apart is her kindness and professionalism. She created a safe and supportive environment, making the entire experience enjoyable and relaxing. I felt completely comfortable and confident in her abilities throughout the entire process.
If you're looking for a high-quality tattoo experience with an artist who is both incredibly talented and genuinely caring, look no further than Ink+Opal and Hayley. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering getting tattooed, and I can't wait to return for my next piece. Five stars isn't enough to express my gratitude and admiration for their amazing work.“

“Jesse is the man.
It was my first tattoo ever. Created a custom design and showed it to Jesse he did the work above and beyond. So happy with the service and how amazing the tattoo turned out❤.“

“Danielle is absolutely amazing!! She did my double helix piercing painless and bad answers to every one of my questions!! Gave great support and feedback, will for sure visit again! I DM’ed her about my concerns and she perfectly answered and explained any questions, issues and concerns! She’s awesome would get pierced by her again!“

“I can’t recommend this studio enough! I’ve had tattoos done here by Kyle and Josh, plus my nose and septum pierced by Kyle, and every experience has been absolutely amazing.

Kyle is incredibly talented, has such a light hand when tattooing, and always makes you feel comfortable from start to finish. Great sense of humour and super welcoming to talk to! He also takes the time to explain the whole process, including how everything is single use and sterile, which really shows how much he cares about his clients and the work he does.

Josh did one of my tattoos and was just as awesome! Super friendly, great sense of humour, and awesome to chat with. The whole studio has such a welcoming atmosphere. Amazing artists, great vibes, and quality work every time. Highly recommend!“

“I love this place!
My daughter has had every piercing here and they have been amazing 🤩 but yesterday I had the most epic tattoo experience of my life. And I have a few of them.. (srsly)
Yesterday my daughter (16) finally decided she was ready for her first tattoo
She chose a cute mother daughter kitty cat one and it didn't take much to convince me..
We called and they were so sweet and able to fit us in literally right away with Holden and when we got there we were met with all the familiar faces from years past and met Holden who was so accommodating and kind and funny!
I just can't even explain the atmosphere and energy! It was the most relaxing & calming but fun I've ever had getting a tattoo .. I smiled and laughed the entire time!
He was gentle and chill and we both had a great visit .. all the way down to the 3 of us bursting out in song together simultaneously ❤

Best tattoo experience ever and I think the playlist was also a big help! Shoutout to whoever was in charge of that!

And I am SOOO HAPPY with the results!!

Thank you Holden 🤩🤟🏼“

“Best gal. Been going here for years. Pretty good prices which is great considering inflation right now“

“Had a great time getting tatted by their newest artist, Mitt! The whole shop was a vibe“

“Jeff was great to work with, excellent design, very friendly and well executed artwork!“

“Went to see Alessia on a friend's recommendation and wasn't disappointed. She took my idea and made it awesome, I'll be back! 🤘“

“I went in for a spontaneous lobe piercing as I was walking through the mall and ended up walking out with my seconds and thirds! Brock was my piercer and he was amazing. I walked right in and he answered all my questions. He took not even 10 minutes for all 4 piercings, perfect for me because I was a bit nervous. Not sure why there's so many bad reviews about him, couldn't have been more professional!“

“Kieran was so good at taking all my crazy ideas and making it into a beautiful piece of art! So much talent!“
