“Honestly it's the best $80 tattoo. Quality line work, the artist paid special care even though it was a gumball machine tattoo. Good line work and shading. A fun spontaneous thing to do“

“Don’t let the unassuming exterior fool you! This is an incredible piercing shop. It’s incredibly clean and there are so many jewelry options! I got my daith piercing done by Derek a couple weeks ago, and not only was it the most affordable and least painful piercing I’ve ever had, it has also been the easiest healing process! He took the time to really make sure that the placement was perfect, and I truly believe that Derek’s patience and passion for his art is the key to the best healing process. He’s super talented, and I would 100% come back to him!“

“Nathan is such an amazing artist very friendly and the atmosphere is very comfortable and relaxing overall such a great experience with element tattoo“

“Id gone to the Babcock location years ago and liked it, but my former artist is no longer there. I heard good things about StoneOak so figured to check it out. Justin is cold with the needle, hooked my girl up with piercings, and Nico mastered a thing of beauty on my arm. The entire staff is on point, professional, cool, upfront and real, talented and prices are fair. Check'em out people;)“

“When I first reached out to Jasmine, I was carrying the weight of a tattoo that never felt right—a mark meant to honor my beloved bird, Julius, but instead reminded me of loss more than love. Jasmine changed everything.

With compassion, patience, and extraordinary skill, she transformed that heartbreak into a masterpiece. The new tattoo isn’t just art—it’s Julius in flight, forever present in the beauty of every detail. The birds, the florals, the way the design breathes... every glance at it brings me peace and reminds me of how special he was. It's not just on my skin, it's etched into my soul.

The process felt like working with your best friend—the kind who just gets it. Jasmine listened like a kindred spirit and translated my emotions into something tangible and lasting. Her thoroughness and attention to detail made me feel so cared for, like this tattoo was just as personal to her as it was to me.

I recommend her to absolutely everyone. If you want a tattoo that speaks, heals, or honors someone you love—Jasmine is the one. I’ll return to her without question for future pieces, because it’s rare to find someone who tattoos with both heart and precision.“

The second one was a rose for my mom who had recently passed. The owner did this one and it is absolutely fabulous. I get compliments all the time on it.
