Awesome experience. Social media correspondence was great, I explained that we were a group of 8 coming into town for a birthday celebration and a few of us were looking at getting tattoos. Myself and another had ideas for the pieces we wanted, the other ladies were game day decisions! We all got exactly what we came for! The shop was clean, everyone we met with was great! Bruce was stellar - he wanted to see my other tattoos to keep with the same/similar lines and shading techniques. Noelle did great work of my friend's tattoos, and was super easy to hangout with. We were a large-ish group, and kind of loud but the shop was accommodating and made our experience wonderful. They were honest about pricing and expectations. I'd definitely make the 8 hour drive for future work.

The staff was very friendly, and they allow walk-ins. Ish took my design and made it so much better. All for a great price.

First tattoo experience. Tyler did an awesome job. Bit of a wait so best to make an appointment but…read morewe love our tattoos!

If you're from out of town BEWARE. This place will overcharge you and take advantage of you simply…read morebecause you're from out of town. While Martin is a great artist and I have no complaints about my tattoo itself, I will say, that in my opinion, he is a thief. I was charged $572 for a 3 hour tattoo. A three hour tattoo at $150 an hour comes to a total cost of $450 + tax. While I believe in paying for quality, I did feel like he 'milked the clock' to increase his profit. My tattoo is simple and did not require three hours, especially from a talented and experienced artist. The reason I feel like I was stolen from is because I paid $110 as a deposit to hold my spot. I received an invoice that states it is a DEPOSIT. Since it's a deposit I was under the impression that the $110 would come off the total of the tattoo. That's the way it works in most businesses and how the deposits were applied in previous tattoos I've had done. When Martin finished my tattoo I was told by Tyler, who handled the check-out process, that the $110 would in fact come off the total. Since it was a three hour tattoo the total came to $450+ tax. My balance was to be $340 + tax. Instead my card was charged $462. With the $110 deposit I ended up paying $572 total! I was not given a receipt and I had the tattoo done on the day I was heading back home from my vacation. It was not until I got back home that I realized that I had been overcharged. I called the tattoo studio to explain the error. I spoke to an artist that told me the deposit should have come off the total. I was told to email Martin and everything would be fine and the charge would be taken off. By then I had been told a few times that I had paid a deposit that was to come off of the balance and had hope that this 'error' would be corrected. I was wrong. After several emails back and forth I was told that they did not overcharge me. That, in their opinion, they had given me a deal because Martin normally charges $200 an hour. Their Facebook page clearly states $150 an hour and I was told that he charges $150. I was never told I was receiving a 'deal' in any of the emails that were exchanged prior to me entering their studio to have my tattoo done, nor during or after the work. Also, as I stated above, my invoice for the $110 clearly states it's a deposit. The dictionary defines a deposit as 'a sum payable as a first installment on the purchase of something or as a pledge for a contract, the balance being payable later'. I was also told in those email exchanges discussing the overcharge, that Martin doesn't work at the studio and just came in to do my tattoo. That is a clear lie as he is put forth as the owner of the studio. One room, which is clearly his work area, has his face on the walls. During the time he was doing my tattoo he went on a "smoke break" and came back reeking of weed. Then proceeded to say things to hint at the fact that he was high. In my opinion, that is completely unprofessional behavior from a business owner. I did check reviews before I decided on this studio but I should've done more digging or research into this business and their practices. The rude, condescending, sarcastic replies regarding bad or less than stellar reviews were clearly present online, on multiple platforms. When I mentioned that in an email some of those replies or the whole review was then removed. But there are many still out there. So, behaving unprofessionally is common practice for this business. I fully expect some of the same behavior in response to this review. I just want out-of-towners to beware. There are many talented tattoo artists out there, who are also trust worthy and professional. Unfortunately, that is not the case with Martin and his studio.
