Let me first start off by saying if you're looking for a CLEAN, chill, super fun, eclectic , fun and friendly atmosphere to get your tattoos, piercings or gifts for the art collective than Blue Bird Tattoo Studio is for you!
I have been following Missi Blue's work for YEARS and have always admired and adored her art and dreamt than when I was ready for a tattoo that she'd be the one to do it.
Well fast forward a few years, I finally decided on something I wanted (a full wood land animal sleeve at that) and sent Missi a request on booking day and she chose to tattoo me and let me tell you, WHAT AN HONOR!
I'm still in process of finishing up the sleeve and I couldn't in my wildest dreams have come up with a drawing as perfect as what she came up for me. I told her my idea and she completely ran with it and exceeded expectations and than some. I talked to her some about her process and if you're looking for an artist who truly puts forth her best work, Missi is the person for you. She research's every piece even if she is relatively knowledgeable on the animal / subject she's tattooing she still does research and that makes me respect her even more. I can't wait to finish my sleeve as I get so many compliments every time I'm out. And I always tell them who's the best in the biz.
I don't have much experience with her other artists there but from the work I've seen they are equally as amazing and really bring a wonderful vibe to the team!
Now, let me move on to the admin staff. Vicky and Becca are so much fun and two is the nicest gals you've ever met. They both have bright and infectious smiles, are not only incredibly kind and compassionate but are just so personable and feel like an old friend you've known your entire life. To them, they are working a job but also a part of a family. You can truly tell they enjoy what they do and where they work. And that makes a complete difference in the customer service world.
Now onto Jill aka Piercings by Stitcher, she is so super sweet, fun and is super knowledgeable about her profession. It's very quite clear based upon my own personal experience that unlike other "professional piercers" Jill WILL NOT pierce you if she does not think you have the appropriate anatomy. For example, years ago I went to another shop to get my belly button done. They just went ahead and pierced me and used a hoop at that, not a barbell like you're supposed too and it ended up rejecting really bad and they essentially pierced my actual stomach. It was so incredibly painful and now I have an awful keloid scar. I asked Jill if she could redo it and she said told me that the people that pierced me should've been honest and tell me that my anatomy wouldn't have held up. I just didn't have the little flap of skin that one needs for a navel piercing. And she said she would not Re pierce it and where she could've easily lied and taken my money and pierced me like the last people did, she didn't because she genuinely cares about her customers and I respect her immensely for that. I've been pierced 3X now by Jill and she's amazing. She's also fun and bubbly and a total light this world needs. The other amazing part, she is by walk in appointments only! So no appointment needed!!
