As an overthinker, I'd been putting off getting my first tattoo for about, oh, five years, since I…read moredidn't know what the experience would be like and couldn't seem to find a person that made me feel confident. Lucky for me, I ran into Ron Rash, and I liked him so much that I requested an appointment five minutes later. Although the artists get a lot of the attention, I want to give a big shout-out to the person who runs the front desk. She represents the face of the business by being highly professional, warm, and organized. As a former front-desk person, I know how hard that work is and appreciate how much she put me at ease. Ron was also wonderful: his warm and calm presence relaxed me, and he gave me a tattoo that is so artistically well done that several friends have asked me for his name. Whether this is your first or seventh tattoo, Ron's artistry -- deeply naturalistic but with a bent of the fantastic -- will not disappoint.

Blake was so quick to respond, so easy going, and met with my husband to plan out the rest of his sleeve. Fast forward about a week and Blake had posted some awesome drawings saying he had some immediate openings to fill so I jumped on quick! He was so flexible, so easy going, and honestly just a genuine cool dude to spend a couple hours with. He charges a super fair hourly rate and his tattoos are flawless. He offered touch-ups for up to 6 months after my tattoo for free. I will definitely be coming back for more work in the near future!

In the drawing phase I did not communicate effectively what I was thinking so when he sent the artwork it was not my vision (beautiful, but not what I was looking for).

I very cautious about cleanliness and Chris makes it a top priority. The work was not rushed and healed beautifully. You always have his full attention for your time. I would whole heartedly recommend Chris to anyone looking!

Back in July, 2023, I went to My Religion Tattoo to have a "book" and the word "READ" tattooed on…read morethe back of my left hand, plus the word "PLAY" tattooed above the "musical note" I already had on the back of my right hand. The tattooist was Marcus. Everything looked fine when they were finished (Photos 1 & 2), and a month or so later I returned for a touch up on both words, as the lettering had begun to spread and lose definition. The book and note were fine. Shortly thereafter, though, I noticed some swelling on both words and went back to My Religion, where--as far as I can remember--I was told that some swelling was to be expected and to just wait. Flash forward several more months (I'm guessing December, 2023) and the "swelling" had become so prominent (Photos 3 & 4) that it interfered with a photoshoot I was involved with (Even makeup couldn't disguise it--it looked like embossed stationery!) And, as far as I can tell, it continues to get worse. So, later that month I returned again to My Religion and was told that what I was experiencing was probably due to an allergy to the red ink--of which I most certainly was not informed initially--and that nothing, really could be done about it. The "possibility" of laser surgery correcting it was mentioned. And, that was it. I asked my dermatologist about this and they said nothing could be done. I'm especially concerned that the words will eventually become unreadable! So, I have two complaints: One, Marcus should have mentioned that *some* people were allergic to the mercury in red ink, and I certainly would have considered a different color; and, two, some sympathy from the person I spoke in December with would have gone a long way toward mollifying me.

I reached out early july asking for a tattoo and had to wait days for a response. After I got a response we agreed on a date and a price and that day I sent $100 for a deposit. The day I was supposed to get the tattoo I was on my way to the shop and less than 30 minutes before my appointment he reached out and cancelled on me. I was upset but didn't make a big deal of it because I also understand people make mistakes and have their own lives. I said it was ok but I I told him I would just like a refund of the $100 I sent and he told me they don't do refunds but he can honor my deposit for another day after about a couple weeks of waiting for him to reply we finally agreed on a new date. I show up at the time he tells me to be there and he's not there yet at that point I just didn't want this guy to tattoo me. very inconsiderate of peoples time and money so definitely would not choose this guy For a tattoo I'm now out $100 and still don't have the tattoo I wanted.

But, my son offered and of course, I'm gonna get tatted. How hard can a simple bumblebee? Beautiful atmosphere but that's about it. I requested a bumblebee on my neck, right behind my ear. Risky spot but I was feeling bold! Again, how friggin hard is a bumblebee for a seasoned artist? LMAO!! Actually, LMAFO because this "bumblebee " looks like it has been ran over or hit my windshield! This jackass charged my son a 150.00 for this! Needless to say, I paid my son back! Since I'm not exactly sure who the asshole was that tattooed me (mistake 2). I'll be fair.... He is the person at the very first chair on the right side of the shop. It looked as if the other artists were actually putting out quality work and like a dummy, I just went with that adrenaline that you get to get a new tattoo! . I would actually stay clear of the "artist" in chair 1 on the right! LOL! You're gonna get something like this.... No doubt. My children in preschool drew better and colored their shit better than this "artist" (I mean artist in a very sarcastic way). If you choose to do a walk in, anywhere actually, be prepared for this type of outcome. Good and talented artists won't do walk-ins. They take pride in their abilities and want people to recognize great work. A great tattoo artist would NEVER EVER stamp their name to a horror like the one I'm posting! Do your homework, be patient, a good tattoo takes time. I definitely appreciate those that have put ink on me over the last 30 years! Some better than others, but NONE like this crap! I'm still kinda of laughing because, shame on me! I have to rate something but it's a hesitant "1".
