He provides very informative after care instructions. His mannerism is light hearted and makes you feel as comfortable as possible with a person that is about to put a hole in your body. ;) I cannot say enough about Jordan's talent for tattooing. I just bring him an idea and let him go with it. I trust him and his work implicitly. So far, I have spent quite a few hours in his chair and intend to sit for many more. This is a clean shop oozing with talent and awesome personalities. Do yourself a favor and just go here for your artwork. You will be happy that you made the right choice.

My first tattoo with Nikki was in 2005. I already had work done by other artists, which was okay,…read morebut I wanted something bold, striking, and original. I'm in the fashion industry so I'm particular about my body art. After consulting with Nikki, she knew exactly what I was looking for and after a few drawings we started. In the past 7 years, I've had 80+ hours of work done by Nikki, including both sleeves and a full back piece. She's done cover-up work and corrected tattoos from earlier artists. I've also had permanent eye-liner done by her, which looks natural. Each and every experience as been first class. The studio is clean and professional. I've always got the appointment times and days that I want and nothing is too difficult or too much trouble. Tattoos are permanent and I haven't regretted any of mine. I've recommended Nikki and Stacey to a number of my friends and clients, all of them have been more than satisfied. If you're looking for the best, you should give Nikki and Stacey serious consideration.

Before I got my first tattoo I spent a LOT of time researching who was the best. I even visited a…read morefew places first. My conclusion was that Nikki was the best. She is an hour from where I live, but quality over convenience was important to me. Now she has done each of my four tats and I am very pleased with her work and work ethic. Her studio is very nice and clean. I highly recommend her for any work that you may be considering.

I had already read rave reviews about her and her work, so I felt super comfortable with her! Not once did I question the sanitation of the environment or any of their methods. She was very informative and knowledgeable and explained everything I needed to know. This is my second nostril piercing, so she took extra time and care into lining up the two piercings as much as possible. She did a fantastic job! Detailed aftercare instructions were provided (LITHA - leave it the hell alone!) I can't be happier and I highly recommend Tee for any of your body piercing needs!!
