Went to Infinite Image tattoo shop to get a simple Captain America shield but turned into a nearly…read morefull body likeness on my wrist. I was okay with the design but the artist took nearly 4 hours to complete the work in a small 3"x 3" area on my inner wrist. The area was over worked and in days infected to the point I had to go to the ER. They diagnosed it as localized cellulitis and I ended up on an antibiotic for 2 weeks. The tattoo healed on the surface but just looks like a smear of a tattoo 2 months later. I contacted the owner who seemed disinterested and never followed up to see how it healed.

PHENOMENAL EXPERIENCE! Where do I even begin? I came here to visit my bestfriend for all of 48…read morehours and we had the grand idea of getting the tattoos we've been plotting for years. If I could rate Panther a 10 out of 5 I would. I have a decent amount of tattoos, my entire back is covered, two rib tattoos and a half sleeve. Some of which were done from very well known artists that are now featured in TV shows. Panther gave me, by far, the best overall experience I've ever had. From quality work, to genuine conversation, or even just ensuring we felt comfortable with the healing process. ARTWORK- 5/5: We'll start here because that's what many people care about. Panther is an amazing artist. He pays very close attention to detail. Is very true to his work and cuts no corners. Even when you may think you're "finished" he'll connect with you and throw ideas here and there. You'll never leave the chair uncomfortable or dissatisfied. Great patience. Great vibe. Great dude. Super motivational throughout the process, if you're a first timer he'll be exceptional for you. If you're seasoned in the tattoo game, he's just as exceptional. To produce such quality work at such short notice tells you a lot about him. SERVICE- 5/5: We came in with an idea and Panther spoke with us and shot ideas, communicated back and forth with the pros and cons of particular placing, size, etc. Took the idea and essentially BOSS'd it out. Came out 1,000,000 times better than expected. Did a great job involving us throughout the journey; made us feel right as home. PROCESS- 5/5: I messaged them using Yelp because they were unavailable to answer the phone. Within minutes I got a response asking for more details on what I had in mind. After a couple back and forth we were encouraged to come into the shop and speak to Panther in person so we could make something happen. PRICING- 5/5: We sat down and discussed a vision, the cost came last. He's human just like the rest of us though so I'm 100% if you have a budget I wouldn't doubt you all can figure something out together. Never got the vibe of him being money hungry, charging more than what his work is worth, as many artists try to go. When we left I genuinely wished I had taken out more cash to tip him even more, he really deserved every dime I paid.

The studio is welcoming, clean and not at all intimidating, which helped tremendously. I worked with Amy as I'd seen her work online and loved her style.

14 Jan 2016 ~8PM…read more Ladies, if you have private piercings you want done or complicated ones you want done, STAY AWAY!!! I walked into Hammer and Sickle Tattoo and Piercing this evening. I was looking to finish a private piercing, you know ladies.. one of those that only your S.O. and doctor are allowed to see. Well, I walk in and am greeted by the guy that was supposedly to do my piercings. There were to be 6 microdermals to finish my design. Along with him were 2 other guys in the wide open shop. I'm not squirmish in mixed company but I saw that were were NO blinds on the windows in the shop and to make matters worse, NO dividers, floor blinds or anything to impart a little privacy for clientele that wish to have it. The piercer wanted to see what I previously had done and I made it quite clear that I was uncomfortable pulling my pants and skivvys down in front of other people in the room. I mean really? Would you feel comfortable dropping everything in front of 1 total stranger let alone 3 total strangers? I know it is 2016 but I still have standards of etiquette. Maybe if you're a slut or drunk OK, I can understand that... but i'm not and many others are not as well. He kept prodding me to drop my pants etc to show him what I had done thus far. I asked if there were any dividers or I hoped a private room but he kept insisting that I drop my pants there. I made it very clear I was uncomfortable verbally and body language (I refused to take my knee length coat off). He asked if I would be better if they BOTH left and I said yes. Only one guy left. The other remained in the spacious well let OPEN room without blinds or privacy of any sort possibly to see any free porn he wanted. I turned around and told him that I really did not feel comfortable in proceeding. I made this VERY clear but he kept insisting. I drop my clothes and I finally said NO and buckled my belt. I have a LOT of under the clothes piercings and i've been in my share of shops and they ALL had some sort of setup for privacy for those clients that did not want strange guys gawking at their ass or snizz. My initial and confirmed impression just by the setup they have...... Unprofessional. Not to mention the bare table without any sanitary paper to mitigate possible MRSA infections caught from a table many others have laid on. Disinfectant sprays do not always work. Dr's office exam rooms use them and all past piercing establishments I have visited use paper as well. God awful unprofessional and unsanitary as well. It is NOT MY fault he doesn't see the obvious need for privacy dividers etc. in the course of his work. With that sort of obvious oversight, I would give me reason for pause when it came to his sterilization equipment and protocols. (I know my way around an autoclave quite well and assisted teaching microbiology and microscope usage at a local college in years past). Now, to add insult to injury... As I was walking out, the boy (I will not call him a man, adult, business owner OR professional because of his abject lack of professionalism), called me back for a second to berate me for wasting his time. Definitely NOT my fault. Lack of equipment, various guys loitering about, questions of sanitation... without all of that him and his pals creeped me out. He even included some profanities not limited to the F word of which I returned the favor. I have worked as a corporate secret shopper many times in the past as well, I would have given this place negative points all around if I could. The tatto part of the biz? I do not know and have no experience, but piercing? Never another visit. Ladies... Avoid this place of you want any sort of privacy, professionalism or basic sanitary practice. My impression is that they were up for free peep show because I told him on the phone prior to my arrival what I wanted done. I arrived to an audience. That's creepy. Dude, keep your "special". As in anything else, you get what you pay for. I'll wait and pay more each at Lionheart. Keith has probably been doing it longer than you've probably been alive and he has all the correct equipment and understands the occasional need for privacy. I will include my throw-away e-mail address in case anyone wishes to confirm this encounter. 100% truthful with no embellishments. t595i4@yandex.com TH
