Charity at Evolved Body Art did not disappoint. Let me first start by saying, I was really nervous about getting a large tattoo. I really wanted something to honor my mother who passed away a few years ago at a young age though. After a lot a research, I came across Charity and I fell in love with her work. During our consultation, to be honest, I didn't give her a whole lot to go on, but just a memory of the first time I could feel my mom's presence after her passing. This happen on a trip I took to Hawaii during a sunset cruise. After giving her a few pictures of the boat and the view we experienced, she did some research herself of the company that provided the cruise, put my pictures with her research and came up with an absolute stunning tattoo. My mothers handwriting was added, the dolphin we saw on our sunset cruise that day, was named Kevin by the crew members which was the name of my stepdad that passed away a year before my mom. I also expressed I wanted a lot of color and she did not disappoint. My appointments went smoothly, I was treated with kindness and the way that all staff interacted with customers and each other made my experience more special. We shared many laughs and stories together. I plan to get another tattoo in October, Charity with Evolved is where I'll be for sure :) read more

Working with Charity was a wonderful experience from start to finish! She helped me refine the basic design I wanted and made it into something personal and meaningful. We met and she asked for the poem I wrote that inspired the idea and made a point to read it as she prepared for our session. The day of the tattoo, it was a pleasure to spend time talking with her as she worked. It was easy to let her know when I needed a break and she checked in on me throughout the session after I mentioned that I have passed out while getting a previous tattoo. My sister came with me and enjoyed the time too! Not only is Charity personable, she's a skilled artist. Her knowledge of color theory and how to apply it to a tattoo based on skin color and tone blew me away. The design pops against my skin and healed quickly and well. I love that I have a water color painting of the tattoo design to display in my home. I can't wait to work with her for future tattoos! read more

Charity was absolutely amazing to work with, and I am beyond thrilled with my tattoo! It was so simple and fun to walk through everything with her, and she turned my tattoo idea into something absolutely beautiful that I'm so happy and proud to have. It's so obvious that Charity cares about what she does, and she made it very clear that me loving my tattoo was what was important to her. She's a joy to talk with, did her absolute best to make sure I was as comfortable as possible during the appointment, and was beyond awesome with follow-up afterwards when I needed some extra help and supplies. I would happily give Charity 15/5 stars if I could, and when I'm ready for my next piece I am absolutely coming back to see her! read more

I had an amazing experience with Charity. She was able to do a complete cover up of a hideous 90s style tribal band on my arm with an incredible Foo Dog. From start to finish the experience was boutique and amazing, starting with the initial consultation over the phone where she went over my ideas, to when I showed up when she gave me a water color painting of the tattoo she was about to do. Additionally, months later she had me come back in for complimentary touch ups and frequently inquired about how the piece was coming. I have since sent 2 friends/family to her to get work done and have rescheduled another appointment. I cannot recommend her enough. read more

Dave Caldwell. Selecting a tattoo artist can be challenging. Not only are there many to choose from, but most specialize in certain artistic styles. In my case, my daughter chose an artist for me , Charity Oetgen, based on the positive experience she and her husband had with Charity in the past. My complete experience with Charity has been very satisfying. From sharing ideas, reviewing sketches, to actual tattooing, she has been very thorough and professional. Perhaps most importantly, I've seen my tattoo vision come to life on my body through Charity's art, and can't say enough how pleased I am with her work. read more

I got the most beautiful, meaningful, custom tattoo at this location from Charity. She worked with me very patiently to get the perfect watercolor-style whimsical art (she is an amazing watercolor artist!), and then she was a pleasure to be around while she tattooed it on me. She was so understanding when during one of the sessions I had a family emergency and she ended up being both an artist and grief counselor that day for me! Can't recommend working with Charity enough! If you work with her you're guaranteed to have a piece you'll cherish forever. read more

Going into the shop I wanted something original created by an artist that fit two qualifications: watercolor and nature. Charity was able to create an amazing piece for me that I am in love with everytime I see it. During the design process I lost a friend and she was quick to incorporate a part of them into my tattoo. Each session she let me have a say in some of the colors that went into the piece (she has HUNDREDS!!!) and seemed honestly invested in my tattoo (we even named the snail in the piece). Would 100% go back to Charity and Evolved. read more

Charity is so, so talented at her craft. I've never been so thrilled with how a tattoo turned out. I gave her a loose outline of what I wanted to incorporate into an earthy, colorful chest piece that would still intertwine naturally with stark black tattoos I already have. She executed pure art. She communicates well with figuring out color, placement, and over all vibe of what you're looking for in your tattoo and is genuinely a really fun and interesting person to get to know. I wouldn't recommend anyone else. read more

My entire experience getting my first tattoo was phenomenal. The artist (Chris) listened to my idea, gave recommendations, and encouraged me to consider a variety of styles, so when I finally decided on what I wanted I was pretty sure. The shop is spotless clean and getting the tattoo itself was better than I expected. The artists check in frequently to make sure you're okay and offer breaks. I didn't need one so I got mine in one sitting. I'll be coming back -- I feel hooked on tattoos. read more

Clair is an amazing and kind human! She was incredibly patient with me when I wasn't sure what I wanted. She assured me in making the best decision as well as my safety. She explains everything she's doing so you feel extremely comfortable at every moment. She was consistently cleaning everything in between everything she touched and even disposed gloves and replaced them. If you wanna feel amazing and confident you need to see Clair!!! Trust me, you will not regret it! read more

I had a specific idea of what I wanted my tattoo to look like and Charity was able to bring that vision to reality. She's an amazing artist. She's also an easy conversationalist, which makes an all day session a lot less miserable to sit through. As long as she is available and willing, I probably won't go to another tattooist. The shop is also tremendous. Fantastic atmosphere. Utmost professionalism in aseptic technique and pre and post skin care. read more

I had an amazing experience getting my first tattoo from Charity at Evolved. Charity was very informative throughout the whole process and was very patient with me. Charity also does amazing work in watercolor and if you need anything with color, Charity is the one to be able to hook you up! I absolutely love my tattoo, thank you for giving this so much meaning everyday I get to see it! I can't wait to get my next one done. read more

Went today to have our 8yo daughters ear lobes pierced. She was pierced by @jaxxbatt and they were amazing! So calm and reassuring for our daughter who was nervous. Great attention to detail and flawless, almost painless piercing! Everything was sterile and great communication from all staff. We highly recommend getting work done at evolved and getting pierced by @jaxxbatt !! Could not have asked for a better experience! read more

I can't express how happy I am with Charity and the studio location on N. High. Charity has created two beautiful pieces of art in doing my tattoos with more appointments already scheduled. The studio is clean and fully professional. Charity has rich color saturation and precise line work, no blow out here!! You will not be disappointed with choosing Charity as your artist at the 2413 N. High location of Evolved. read more

Charity is a wonderful tattoo artist. I felt she was sincerely interested in working with me to create the tattoo I wanted. From the initial consultation to the finishing touches, she asked for my thoughts while providing helpful insight that guided me in bringing my ideas to reality. I absolutely love my tattoo and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a tattoo that is unique and special to them. read more

My sister actually recommended that I try her tattoo artist out. I worked with Charity and my sister to do a brother/sister tattoo. We were both incredibly happy with her work and I'm coming back later this year to get another piece with Charity. Seriously some of the best work. I'm so incredibly happy with my tattoo. I'm travelling all the way from Omaha to get my next piece specifically with her! read more

I've been working with Charity Oetgen on a half sleeve for a couple months now and I couldn't be more pleased with the work. This is also my first tattoo experience and she's done a great job walking me through what to expect, how to handle any pain/discomfort, and the aftercare process. I look forward to finishing up this project and am already looking forward to future tattoo projects. read more

I worked with Charity on designing a tattoo for my love of Treasure Planet. While I haven't gotten it yet (life and pandemic have been a bear) the consultation was a breeze and it was wonderful. She helped me refine an idea I painted in watercolor to make it better for a tattoo. I can't wait to actually be able to get it and others from her- her water color style is just stunning read more
