    My brother came into town and was leaving the day after Memorial Day. Justin took us in and gave us matching sibling tattoos last minute on Memorial Day! It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience for all of us I believe lol. Thanks, Justin you rock dude!

    Thank you guys so much. We had a great time getting to hang out with you. Shawn's (I hope I'm spelling your name right) linework was perfect and we both LOVE our new tattoos

    I seen a post in a facebook group about tattoos and a artist named boonie told me i can come get a tattoo from her at this shop …. Ok cool she even said id get a discounted price ,
    (Still was overcharged)
    The tattoo came out somewhat ok i wasnt happy with my results but it was decent
    days pass and i was in so much pain , ended up going to the hospital because i had clearly caught and infection and side of my tattoo had puss coming out turns out she gave me a staff infection and im just now getting my hospital bill
    Would highly recommend not going to her shes just going to do it quickly and overcharge you and not even respond to your messages after the fact 1/10 very disappointing

    I would recommend this shop to anyone I know. I’ve been going to Charlene for a few years now and she’s done multiple pieces on me that I have been extremely happy with! She is very professional, clean and listens to what you want. She’s also very friendly!! I get compliments on my butterflies every single day!

    I hear this is the place to go to…they stay so busy, they are all great artist, but Charlene is absolutely incredible. Not only is her artwork next-level, but her passion and spirit truly makes her more special. You can feel the love she pours into every piece, and it shows in the detail and care she gives. I hear she makes people feel comfortable, heard, and excited throughout the whole process.If you’re looking for someone who’s both insanely talented and genuinely beautiful inside and out this is your artist. Highly recommend! I can’t wait to get a small piece I want, and she’s definitely the one I am going to.

    One are my top favorite tattoo shops thus far and I've been to plenty in my ripe old age of 43 lol They care about their art, their clients and each other. They literally treat each other like family and I love that not to mention Charlene is the cover-up queen.. The other big plus that I love about them are the specials that they run and have quite often because they know even though we all wish we could get tattoos all the time we can't necessarily afford it so they think about the little people when they can and you guys are so appreciated because that's what originally brought me into the shop to begin with, It was those $31 palm size tattoos boy they'll get you every time lol lbs

    Edit: I stand by my original review below, but today an instagram video popped up from this shop where the artist was talking about the design being generated by Chat GPT. Like I said below, good vibes and nice people at the shop, but I won’t be going back, and had I known they use generative AI to any degree for their art, I wouldn’t have gone in the first place. Had to knock off a couple stars for that.

    Went in for a Friday the 13th special. It was a very long wait, but they said they’d call me when it was close to my turn, so I went home and hung out. Waited longer than expected but when you’ve got the best Friday the 13th deal in the city, a lot of people are gonna show out.

    Well worth the wait, the vibes inside were killer, my artist was dope and crushed it, and everyone working there was so patient and nice, especially considering they were dealing with well over a hundred people trying to get tattooed that day.

    Maybe their scheduling system could be better but honestly if I was in charge of it I would’ve fumbled it BAD. They crushed it, great experience and will absolutely be back again.

    They were super slammed with Friday the 13th special but everyone was super nice and great with communication during the entire process me and my girls hung out all night at the shop and we were the very last to get tatted finishing up at six in the morning. It was definitely an experience and worth the wait! The work we got done turned out amazing and definitely will be going back to get more work done! Thank you for making a girls night out memorable!!
