You'll hear the puppy borks before going it. I thought it was cute. It is nice and clean there, and I had no issues getting checked in. I am not from Atlanta, but I really liked Emily's style and was going to be in ATL for a concert. I sent her what I wanted, a simple palm sized symbol I wanted on my hip, and she showed me a couple of designs. I picked one and we were quick to get started. She had no problems repositioning my stencil after I changed my mind. It was exactly how you want your appointment to go. In addition to being super communicative and easy to work with, she had the lightest hands I've ever experienced. Easy line pulls and as little pain I've ever felt. It was almost magical. It's been almost a month and my tat is healed up lovely.

Highly recommend for anyone wanting ink in Atlanta or anywhere else. I'd travel in a second for his talent!!

They were extremely diligent in their adherence to sterilization protocols and examination of my initial piercings. Because of Randy's careful examination of my ears, only one ear needed a full re-pierce and the other ear just needed a slight stretch in the piercing. It was much less painful this time around than it was 20 years ago (w/a piercing gun at Claire's!). I had such a great experience here I would definitely return and get additional piercings! My ears healed well (different experience than the first time) and I'm excited to wear earring again!

I came back after a month and got them changed out with no fuss in about 5 minutes. They answered my questions happily and were thorough in their responses. Love the vibes. My jewelry swap (didn't need to downsize after all) hurt quite a lot but I'm unsure if that was because they still weren't ready. The piercer did feel a bit rough when handling them but when I voiced the pain they slowed down and were more gentle.

We wanted to get fine line Star Wars themed tattoos -- we provided the image and they advised to make the image a little bigger so the lines won't look shriveled over time. We agreed with their recommendation and got to the table with not much of wait. Everyone was very inviting, the place itself looked really cool and eclectic. I immediately thought of coming back for a flash deal if we were ever in town again! Very clean, very sterile, and very friendly -- so why one less star?? Unfortunately both our fine line tattoos have faded by the end of the week. The pressure didn't feel deep enough for either of us and the line work is VERY light. We already want them touched up but since we're not from the area, we'd have to find another artist. BUT that shouldn't take away fully from the good experience! Maybe if we weren't leaving to the airport after this, we would've been able to speak up and say to go a smidge thicker. Or perhaps we should've visited in the beginning of our trip so we can return for touch ups at the end of our trip after the first couple of days of healing. Not sure. But still good vibes here!

The woman at the front desk who was very unapproachable with a bunch of facial piercings was the reason I could not return to the shop. I called in a panic because I was not given a heads up. They just told me they would walk me through the aftercare process. I have several tattoos from this artist and it was very unfair because of one person that I was denied to retouch. Her opinion will hurt her business & her coworkers. I worked in the Beauty business for nearly 30 years. This is not how any client should be treated.

I stopped by early in my trip to check availability and not surprisingly there wasn't much. The books were booked but they told me that an artist did walks-ins on Saturdays at 3pm and to come in around then. Being super anxious I got there about 2:45pm that day and found out someone else was even more anxious because the appointment was gone. Bummed, because I really had my hopes up I then talked to another artist, Hank who asked me what I was trying to get done. Ironically, he did a lot of sketch designs and I was looking for just that kind of tattoo. He knew the tattoo wouldn't take too long and agreed to take me the next day which happened to be Easter Sunday. Hank was amazing. While I can't say it was completely painless because I don't think any tattoo ever is or will be, overall the complete process was. He drew my design essentially overnight. When I came in the next day he showed it to me, and the thing I love about tattooing and art in general is what I had in my head of what it was going to be like wasn't exactly what he drew, but I loved his vision so I changed nothing but the overall size of the tattoo and we went to work. He gave me great instructions afterwards and it never turned red at all. It looked perfect the entire time. The healing process was amazing. I live in Florida but will absolutely make any trip to see Hank for future tattoos because it's absolutely worth it.

His initial measurements for the stencil were spot on and the design fits perfectly on my upper arm and chest. Danny was very intuitive in translating a my loose ideas for a piece to a practical design. He was methodical and careful in executing the actual tattoo work. It was well thought out. The result looks great and elicits compliments from people who see it. His work of a traditional Japanese tattoo (a dragon) was bold lines with artistically applied fill colors and shading. The design is clear, even from a distance. Danny is experienced in applying tattoos and well versed in Japanese lore, and will patiently explain the meanings of the various symbology used in traditional Japanese tattoos. 848 Tattoo was great about scheduling, letting me know well in advance of any schedule change (only once) and flexible for my schedule change (only once). The 848 Tattoo shop is impeccably clean, uses temporary needle sets, always provides new covers for the tattoo work furniture, and is well-lit. Very safe and hygienic. I would highly recommend 848 Tattoo Studio to anyone serious about getting a high quality, professional tattoo design--especially traditional Japanese designs, which are his specialty. Just looking at all the pictures and designs on the shop's walls made me want to get more done.

Sending example pictures and ideas. I knew the elements I liked and wanted but didn't know how to bring them all together and what would work on my shoulder. He patiently listened to all my ideas and was able to string them together in an original design. I'm super stoked by the final result. If you're looking for a piece of art then take your time and go with someone that specializes in this style. He is devoted to this art form and developing his craft. It's rare to see someone so devoted to something, but he clearly loves the art and process. Communicate if there's something you exactly want, but also know that if you give Danny some space for his artistic ideas you won't be disappointed.
