I have never had a bad experience here -- not once in the two plus years I've been going here…read more Everyone is welcoming, friendly, and respectful. I see Brian specifically and I can't recommend him enough. I wish I would've been able to meet him sooner. He's covered up a few tattoos seamlessly and I've had a several more larger pieces done by him. They're absolutely beautiful, and something I am truly proud to wear for the rest of my life. I brought a friend to Brian to get her first tattoo and he walked her through everything with patience and respect, making her feel comfortable the whole time. A lot of times when I am out and about, people ask me where I got my tattoos done at and compliment the work he has done. Brian's level of talent is exceptful and reflects through his work. Each piece clearly shows the amount of hardwork, thought, and diligence put behind it. If you're looking for a tattoo shop that is welcoming, passionate about their work, and respectful, look no further and come on in. Below are a few pictures of the tattoos Brian has done for me.

See you then. 5 minutes later I got a call back from them saying that there's an opening, I said Bet, I'll be there in 10. My artist was Artt.
