“I have nothing but good things to say about this shop and Spike. He is a true artist and is dedicated to his craft. His work is detailed and he is well educated on tattoo design and techniques. He takes his time with each piece and puts his all into his work. Not only is he a true artist, he is also respectful, on time, returns messages promptly and communicates regularly. I highly recommend him. He is currently working on a forearm piece. Once it is complete and healed I will post pictures.“

“Dave offered a very professionally kept and clean space where he operates as the sole artist within his shop - He ensures a clear yet noninvasive line of communication has been had about health and safety prior to creating his art, and takes plenty of time with the clients to be sure he's got their ideal vision down.Although I cannot say he does this EVERY TIME, I know that often he schedules a single client within a single day and no more to ensure that there is plenty of space for discussion, drawing, and the creation itself.Once all is said and done, Dave will go over basic healing expectations that other shops may not (such as over-hydrating and Adhesive Allergies!)If you consent to it and send a photo in later he is always proud to show his work, and see it's final (healed) product... The check in for how things are healing is my favorite, you can tell this is a space looking to progress, learn, and inspire.I watched Dave of Hand Eye Tattoo navigate through the pandemic and come out the other head with healthy and protected clients, his shop and expertise quickly became a novelty go-to suggestion I provide to the Wisconsin Traveler.*I would like to edit and add that the original Colored Pencil drawing was a draft from my childhood, I then brought it to Dave and asked he reworked it with me to fit the vision in my head... The black and white is his creation, and the full color is pictured on my skin. I'm so proud of how this turned out! Even after healing, it's set exactly how he said it would set, and he absolutely mentioned scenarios that may require a revisit or touchup in the future.A 10/10 experience.“

“Oh I just had the best time getting tattooed by Jaded. Her artwork is beautiful, she's delicate but thorough on sensitive areas of skin- I had no pain. Abraxas does scheduling and communications so if you reach out, Abraxas is your first point of contact. The whole shop is a fun group.Note- they have a 6% charge to use cards so bring cash- or use the ATM they have in the shop to save yourself a fee.“

“Saw Kelsey for this gorgeous lavender piece a few weeks ago. It’s healing amazing, and the line work is clean and so detailed! The atmosphere of the shop was great, and everyone who I spoke to was extremely kind and creative. Kelsey not only did an amazing job with the design but was more than accommodating when it came to some joint issues I have with my elbow during the tattoo. Highly reccomend this shop, and I hope to be back sometime!“

“I have come here many times for tattoos and piercings alike and have always had an amazing experience! Today I took my roommate for a quick piercing consult with John because his earring (from a different store) had been pushed into his earlobe which caused it to bleed and be super swollen. John was very helpful and kind throughout the process and solved his issue within 10 minutes! I highly recommend this place for any piercing or tattoo needs! The staff is super knowledgeable and kind, you won’t be disappointed!“

“I was admittedly a little wary of a tattoo shop in a mall, but was pleasantly surprised! The owner was very friendly and polite, talking with my friend and I while we waited. They are very time efficient. My friend and I were tattooed by Jasper and they were a delight to talk with and did amazing work. The tattoos were also a great deal. Very happy with my experience.“
