The desk guy gave me a super green artist and I thought it would be ok with such a simple tattoo. I was wrong. The artist must've been fresh off grapefruits because that is the trauma he did to my leg. Super painful, still an open wound an entire week later. I've been asking around if this can happen and no this is not normal! Update: had a dr look at it and was given antibiotics for a tissue infection

Would NOT recommend. After flying in from a long flight today with only two days in town, we…read morearrived at the shop at 445pm. Excited. We were told that it would only take 30minutes to wait to be attended to. We waited patiently and checked in periodically at every point we kept being assured they were just about take us. "30minutes more" we were told every 30minutes. It's been 3 hours. As time wore us down i fell asleep in their waiting room. We are just leaving now only for them to tell us that they were closing and we couldn't be taken care of together as intended for a very small non-detailed tattoo of puzzle pieces together. They asked that we take two separate artists for a tattoo that requires the same hand. We were being rushed to now work with little time. Mind you, we were the only Black people waiting for a tattoo in their establishment. Take that as you will. If staff would've been transparent as we checked in several times we could've left and been on our way. Again, would not recommend especially to other Black folks. It's important to feel valued and respected as a customer just as much as any other respectful paying customer. SHOUT OUT TO SOUTHERN MAGNETIC Tattoo tho! After feeling deflated and disrespected we quickly googled and found these folks. They answered and managed to make time for us. They were extremely kind, patient, and cool. Great tattoos. Veterans in the game. Customer service makes all the difference. I don't care how good an artist you are. How you treat people matters. Especially when getting artwork on your body that will last a lifetime.

It was a Saturday and I wanted a tiny tattoo just wording no graphic or shading. Very basic but I wanted the line to be really fine so it was definitely some precision line work. I went to another shop first that was booked up and they suggested Upper Hand Tattoo because Saturday is their walkins only day. We drove over around 4pm and waited about a half hour. They had I believe three artists working through the customers. Within the Russian tattoo artist roulette I was up next when Bob was available. I'd been admiring some of his US Navy themed tattoo sketches all along the walls so j was happy to get him! He looked over my idea and suggested a slightly different approach because we knew my idea wouldn't fit properly in the location I'd chosen. After some tweaking he came back to me with a new idea that I loved even more. Minutes later he had me paying the front desk girl (cash only friends) and I was ready. Pricing was reasonable too, exactly what I was expecting it to be. Once at his station he carefully laid out his tools and unwrapped the needles from their protective sealed wrappers right in front my eyes. Everything was very professional and he was also cool to talk to. He was really quick which I appreciated since it was on the inside of my wrist (ouch!) yet he was not too quick to make mistakes. It came out perfectly and I love it! I'll post a photo later

The…read morepiercers always come off as confident and trusting, and I've never had any issues with the healing process or jewelry. The facility is also very clean. My only con about this business that keeps me second guessing is pricing. Prices are available online when you book your appointment, however you are HIGHLY up charged once everything is said and done. I originally went in to have my industrial and three small cartilage diamonds placed back in (NOT pierced) as they were too small to do it myself. Pricing online shows $20. I figured I would spend maybe $30-$40 with tip. I ended up paying $75 which is significantly more than getting an entire piercing! Additionally, I had to wait 20-25 minutes after my appointment time to be seen. I'm usually fine with waiting, but I don't like how online it states if you show up 10 min past your appointment time, you may be charged full price and need to reschedule. I can't help but feel taken advantage of.
