I've got some credibility on this predatory website and today I'm going to use it. Turnpike tattoo has been in business for 2 decades. I got the second tattoo I've ever had in my life here about 15 years ago by Kelly Doty. A lot of great artists started out at this shop.

I'm sure this entire review is against the rules but at least our business isn't paying Yelp to remove our bad reviews like everyone else is. Here are some tattoos I've done recently.
