“I had my septum pierced by Ash today. I went in terrified due to a former attempt at a septum piercing that left me with severe pain. The other person pierced my cartilage and then turned around and shoved it back through the other side because the first time it was crooked. Ash was an excellent communicator and extremely knowledgeable about piercing. He explained to me that I have a deviated septum which makes it difficult to find the “sweet spot”… and then he took his time finding the exact right spot to pierce me. I was absolutely anxious and a nervous wreck but I was committed to getting it done for spiritual purposes. Well, he nailed it. It didn’t even hurt. At ALL. I love it. It ended up exactly how I want it. Ash, you know your stuff. I highly recommend this person for your piercings. Seriously. Excellent care and precise art. Thank you. ?“

“Hey, I just had one of the best tattoo experiences I’ve ever had. I’ve had many over the years and this is the first I’ve felt compelled to review. Andrew Baker, thank you for the respect, the candor, the amazing art, the timely manner, but mostly just the all around sense of professionalism. You really blew me away from the get. Just asking for my consent to touch my arm. Thank you and kudos. It’s the little things that matter and make a person stand out. You nailed it.“

“Phenomenal artists and work! Great, relaxing environment, and will definitely be going back for more work!“

“So i live in WA. We came to visit. After having breakfast we up and decided we’re going to get a tattoo. So im 37 never had a tattoo before. So we went across the street to Martian Arts and it was a good vide as we walked in. Jerry was so kind patient and over all helpful. Im 37 but when i tell you i hate i hate pain. A little pinch will bring tears to my eyes. I finally found the courage to do it and i did. It was so smooth it just left like a itch. Wasn’t painful at all. To be clear i only had 5 letters done behind my ear vertical down my neck. Basic letters at that. So nothing too crazy. When i tell you it took him longer to set up and sanitize than getting my tattoo done. It went so well that i end up getting another tattoo in the same area but it was just a small heart. 10/10 would recommend and i will be getting another tattoo and this is where i will be coming. Its worth that 3 hr drive. Thank you Jerry keep up the good work. See you next time. And to whomever reading this looking for recommendations, do it. Go here you will not regret it!“

“I am beyond pleased with my first tattoo ?. Shae was super patient and explained what she was doing. Atmosphere so relaxing, clean, pleasant, which made for a positive experience.“

“I had the BEST experience here with Shy. She did an outstanding job on my tattoo! She made the entire experience so comfy, kept a great conversation and was so considerate to anything I needed. You could tell the vibe of the place was very collaborative and friendly and I would highly recommend seeing anyone from anatomy tattoo if you’re looking!!!“

“These young ladies are so friendly and work with an honest and professional attitude while being extremely competent in their craft. I called Meraki to schedule a laser tattoo removal session and received an appointment in an extremely reasonable amount of time. The staff took very good care of me and allowed me to proceed with my treatment at my own pace. Would recommend to anyone you know.“

“I walked by on a whim, stomach full of Thai food, close to closing at freaks and geeks and Jason the owner took fantastic care of me. I was in at 6:40, with a 9:40 flight, and Jason gave me exactly the tattoo (my first) I’ve been wanting all done by 7:35. He was super nice and did an excellent job!“

“I just had my second custom tattoo done by Court yesterday and I am so in love.
Last year, Court did a custom Mt. Hood tattoo on me as well as touched it up, and it healed so perfectly I’m obsessed with it.
I strayed and went to three different Portland shops for three different tattoos before returning to Court for another custom and safe to say I will not be going to anyone else again.
Court is the way to go - friendliness, comfort, availability, talent, price, cleanliness, and so accommodating.
Highly recommend!!!!!! Thanks again Court

“Got my first tattoo recently from Backpack and I LOVE IT. Working with him to design it was awesome, he totally listened to what I was hoping for and had some great ideas to make it even better. I love love love the end result so much. The studio was clean and professional and all the artists and staff were so wonderful. I can’t wait to come back for another one!“

“I’ve been following Seven for a few years now and knew that I wanted a piece of her art with me but was initially a little nervous as I’ve never gotten a tattoo before. Fortunately, I was in good hands as Seven was very welcoming and accommodating for a beginner like me! She informed me of each step she took so I knew exactly what was happening and made friendly convo even as I was nervously rambling. I went to the skeletal themed flash day and fell in love with all of her designs, ended up picking the Lynx jaw one, and before I knew it I had an incredibly beautiful piece on me. She’s experienced, clean, and quick with an almost painless method (no, really, it didn’t hurt nearly as bad as I was expecting). I’m definitely returning once this one heals as she’s one of the best with a unique art style. Thank you Seven and Rosewater for my first ever tattoo!“

“Parker sets a high yet standard precedent for all tattoo services! She is very warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in to when you leave. I not only leave with a piece that is beautiful, but feel safe and comfortable during the entire tattoo process. Again and again, I cannot recommend Parker and Midnight Studios enough. Thank you for everything!“

“Say did a tattoo for me and I recommend 1000% . great work, professionalism and the staff/atmosphere is really chill. Look no further when it comes to quality of art work for a great price. Thanks!“

“I can't say enough good things about Justin as a tattoo artist and as a person. I came to him with a deeply meaningful piece, and he treated it with the care and attention it deserved. He took my vision and turned it into something even more beautiful than I imagined.

He was patient, professional, and genuinely passionate about making sure I left with something I would love forever. The environment was clean, and I felt comfortable throughout the entire process.

Thank you, Justin, for bringing my vision to life in the most perfect way.“

“Tanya has done all of the work on my arms. She's great to work with as all of her policies are very clear, as is her work flow, and pricing. She'll also provide her expertise on how tattoos will age and change over time, which I think is an underrated gift.“

“awesome experience at Gold Sparrow with our artist Jake. The shop is extremely clean, beautiful and there's something special there the way the artists support one another and their clients. They keep space for walk-ins daily and have thousands of Mr. Flash pieces. Can't wait to go back!“

“Heather has done 2 tattoos for me and I'll definitely be back. She is friendly, professional, and talented.“

“I stopped by a few months back to speak with Tessa about a custom chest tattoo.Tessa was amazing from the start! Friendly, professional, and confident. I had a general idea of what I wanted but also hoped for an artist to come up with their own unique design.Tessa asked me lots of questions about my idea and was able to take my semi vague idea and turn it into a beautiful piece that was well thought out! Thank you Tessa and I’m so excited to come back for more!Services: Tattoos“
