If your hygiene is that terrible, it's scary to think about tattoo procedures. I just walked in about 10 min ago. No one was at the desk. I said "hello" a few times, no one answered. So I left. But I don't think I would have stayed anyway due to the horrible smell.

Blake Thomas Kennedy is a danger to the public and this profession. Even though traces had been…read moremade and agreed upon, and only two colors requested, BTK changed the design and color scheme when I was laid back. He took a break half way through the session to take rips of pot and I saw that he had changed everything. I of course was upset and expressed this. He took extreme offense and told me I needed to be okay with being his canvas and that I had no right to question his art. He told me if I wasn't satisfied I didn't have to pay. Blake, mad at me for not liking what he'd done so far did a terrible job on the second half of the tattoo, nowhere matching the skills shown in his portfolio. Of course, he was high already, and even later purchased and consumed mushrooms and acid from a dealer who came into the shop. I didn't like his being inebriated when working on me, but he kept going out and smoking more insisting it would make his work stronger. He got so stoned that he slipped in an area at a point and instead of creatively fixing the patch just blacked the area out. At end, things could not have looked more different than what I asked for; he was even trying to add a background. I told him I didn't like the work and he insisted I pay, and in the end even got an extra $200 out of me because he considered the work to be over-time, thinking he deserved a large tip and somehow making me feel like the ass in this scenario- disturbing skill for manipulation. I was obviously a push-over with all of this, and the only good I can take from the experience is that I've toughened up. What really hit the hardest was when he told me to follow his social media so I could see the public's response to his work, not caring that me, who has it on my body didn't like the work. I did follow the page just to see, and of course only the strong side of the tattoo was shown; not the slop he did in second half. Amazingly, this guy Blake Thomas Kennedy had the nerve to speak poorly of me in his post, saying I was unappreciative and using other, stronger words. He asked me to follow so that he could further insult me when out of the room and unable to fight back. BTK's actions are that of a coward, con-artist, crackhead, and complete child Later I had issues with the tattoo not healing well, and Blake Thomas Kennedy would not respond to my emails, social media posts, or calls to the shop. The man has no care for his clients. I still have pain in the tattoo and have been told by doctors the artist was working too deeply on sensitive nerves and permanently damaged them. Searching BTK has alerted me that he's lost his job at multiple shops for doing this to people. He even tattooed a dead child onto someone instead of the portrait client requested be copied. Also, he was arrested for a DUI 8/18/2025 in Beaufort, SC Don't support this sub-human. He clearly only cares about himself and has a complete lack of regard for others. Take a moment to see how he writes back to other client reviews on Google, or what he posts to his Facebook mocking clients with a violent, responsibility-lacking attitude. Lastly, he spent the whole tattoo time whining about his life and playing the same song on repeat... In summary: there's just nothing good about being around BTK
