I had a great experience today at black hole body piercing. I came in for an industrial piercing!…read moreUnfortunately my ear anatomy wasn't well suited for that piercing but the employees there did an excellent job in educating and providing other alternatives.

My girlfriend and I went in to get matching tattoos. We wanted an 8 point star on each of our arms…read moreand each others initials on our fingers. We got in pretty quickly which was great! And price wasn't too bad either. Isaiah was our artist and he was so so great and friendly and talkative, also mentioning his MANY years as a professional artist, so we felt really good working with him. At the end of the appointment everything looked great, though my girlfriend and I both talked about how much our simple finger tattoos hurt. Now, about 2 weeks later, both of our star are tattoos look great...but the finger tattoos...... i've never seen finger tattoos turn out this way, especially after only 2 weeks when they should be freshly healed now. Pics down below .. but my girlfriend's finger tattoo is completely unacceptable. Isaiah dug sooo incredibly deep on hers the ink didn't even take. We were both very worried it would get infected because of how deep the would was. Mine looked great.. until the scab came off.. now it is nearly nonexistent... with each being around 50-100 (not including the arm tattoo) with tip being included. Disappointed to say the least. And we will NOT be going back for his free touch up's:)

Jared answered the phone when I first called before my trip into Portland to visit a friend,…read morebecause after searching some shops, New Rose seemed like the best! My friend and I were wanting matching plastic vampire teeth tattoos since it'd be Halloween weekend and he was so kind when I told him what we wanted and mentioned he hadn't finished his flash sheet so he'd add in the teeth, (spoiler, they were PERFECT). The day we were planning on coming in was their planned flash day so we knew we had to anticipate a potential wait. The rainy Portland weather was in our favor because, even though we were unable to make our way in at 10:30AM as he recommended, we ventured in at 3PM and still got a spot in line. Jared was great, adding the text I wanted to my flash, and even touching up a small hand/wrist tattoo that was poorly done by someone else in a different state prior. Truly, so thankful he answered the phone that day bc I got a great vibe from him. He was also able to successfully turn my "splotch" knuckle tattoo (my loving nickname for it) to a beautiful black skull that ACTUALLY STAYED PUT (it was the 4th attempt over an old scar I had and he was the only one to successfully have a tattoo stick on it without it looking weird once healed). Since Jared was short on time before an appt, Ali did my friends matching fangs and they both turned out amazingly. Overall, I now fully intend to make the journey from Sacramento to Portland anytime I want something done so I can specifically have him do it or his shop-mate that does phenomenal portrait style flash/tattoos (she was diagonal from us when we were there - blonde long hair and beanie). The shop was super clean, artists were all super friendly, front desk apprentice was easy on the eyes, what's not love? 100/10 could not recommend this place enough!

After a disappointing experience at Skin City Tattoo, walking into Dead Gods Tattoo was a…read morecompletely different experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt heard, unrushed, and like the artist genuinely cared about the work he was creating. Cameron did an incredible job. My tattoo turned out beautifully, and he was so gentle I honestly could have fallen asleep during the session. The shop itself felt extremely clean, the artists had a fun camaraderie with each other, and the overall vibe was welcoming and comfortable. I've spent years considering a back tattoo, and after this experience I felt confident enough in Cameron's artistry and professionalism to immediately book a consultation for a larger piece. Couldn't recommend him and the shop more.

The only bad complaint I have is a few days later I had a concern that I needed some advise on as it was my first tattoo, I left a message and NEVER got a call back, so that's pretty disappointing. I had to seek out advise elsewhere and I shouldn't have had to. I will most likely use the place again but a different artist as someone else there was recommended for it.

Such an excellent experience!…read more Travis and Miguel were just awesome!! After our original tattoo artist fell through and never showed up for our appointment, we were scrambling to find someone open the day after Christmas who would do walk ins. Luckily, Tron City was available and got us in quickly. They catered well to both of us. Me, a tattoo virgin who was totally scared, and my brother, who has had many tattoo before and was well experienced. Miguel was very kind and kept me calm and walked me through every step. Travis was thoughtful and really kept in mind my brothers other tattoos on his arm so the style didn't clash too much. I couldn't be happier with the process and the outcome. The vibe was nice and our frogs are so cute!! Thank you again.
