    I went here after having a poor experience at the last tattoo shop I had gone to, and I have to say, the improvement is vast. I walked in, hoping to get tattooed that day, and one of the artists came over immediately to check if I had been helped yet. I had to wait because he had one person ahead of me, but it was no big deal at all. I gave him my request and he fulfilled it in such a great time and manor. Also no judgment for getting a Disney tattoo, as I had been at another shop. Honestly, the only complaint I have is the pricing. It seems a bit steep, but the quality is so nice, I really can't complain too much about that. I have been to many shops trying to find the best tattoo artist and shop for me, and I have to say, this place is the one in Bellingham that makes me feel happy to go into and get a new tattoo. I look forward to my next tattoo, because these are the people I will be going to!!

    Just got this done by Max, absolutely love it!! Thank you!

    Got my third tattoo here at Old Gold in Bellingham. At first I was kind of nervous to get tatted here in Bellingham cause I wasn't sure how experienced the artists were being in a smaller town. However, my doubts quickly disappeared after I talked to the artists at Old Gold. All three of the artists there were very helpful and welcoming, listening to what I wanted and asking if I had a price range. I highly recommend Max, he did a very thorough and fantastic job on my ankle and exceeded my expectations! I absolutely love my tattoo and will be coming back again, thank you so much!!

    I got my first tattoo here on my birthday and was very pleased! All of the guys were very funny and Max did exactly what I was looking for. Well worth the money! Highly recommend. The shop is very clean and friendly

    I really like this place! Got my second tattoo there today. Super fast, super easy. The service was friendly and it was a reasonable price. The shop is also really clean. They accept walk ins or you can make an appointment. It's cash only so make sure you have enough on you! I just got something small on my arm and it wasn't even painful. They made sure it was exactly what I wanted and where I wanted it. The shop alone is pretty cool, they have all the artists work up and you can take your time looking through the designs. Definitely will get my next tattoo here!

    Hands down: the best tattoo experience I have had. I worked with Chucho for a few weeks to get my piece created and he went way above and beyond. He made me really comfortable with the process and furthered my ideas to create a beautiful piece. Old Gold is a great looking clean shop too, well worth the drive from Seattle, as it is way better than reputable places I have been to here. The work was communicated well and done very efficiently as well. I couldn't be happier with my experience, I plan to return many times and have been telling everyone I know: this is the place to go. Beautiful tattoo, thank you Chucho!

    Bold, bright, traditional work done by Chucho. Never disappoints.

    For a while I had been admiring this shop and the artists that inhabit it--so about a year ago I decided I wanted to inquire with the artist who's working I was particularly fond of, Chucho, and make an appointment. Without meeting in person prior to the day, because I about an hour outside of Bellingham, we managed to completely work and plan everything out via social media. I didn't get to see my tattoo before I went in to my appointment (completely understandable--security reasons!) but I wasn't worried at all. Upon arrival I was nervous going in to a new shop but my nerves were quickly gone when I walked in and was greeted and welcomed right away by all of the employees. I met Chucho, he showed me what he'd drawn up from my ideas and I was ecstatic, although I had one request. I wanted it in black and grey. Having planned to do it in color, he had absolutely no hesitation to change that for me and we got started. Being a somewhat quiet person, Chucho made me completely comfortable and was able to initiate and hold a conversation with me the entire time. My piece turned out fantastic and to this day it is still one of my favorites. Just a few days ago I made a trip back up to the shop to meet up with Chucho again and let him tackle my arm with some more of his stunning, bold, traditional work--but this time we used color and oh my gosh it's the most vivid and impressive tattoo I've had done on me. Hands down my absolute favorite piece. I got to the shop around noon and two friends and I ended up hanging around with the crew all day and just having a good time, fun talks and getting tattooed. I've never felt more welcomed and at home and been treated so great in a shop as I have in Old Gold. I am more than happy to make the trip up north just to go to this shop at any time and I would recommend it with the highest regard to anybody who's looking to get some high quality, bold and bright ink done.

    I've been to Chameleon many times before. I did a walk-in to change some jewelry to plastic since I…read morehad an urgent MRI scheduled for the next day. I couldn't remove my lip piecing on my own & needed retainers for my chest so i needed some help. Last time I went before an MRI 2 or so years ago, they didn't charge me an instillation fee or for the plastic jewelry. This go around it was $10 for a plastic lip retainer, $20 for glass chest retainers and a $15 instillation fee. $45 for retainers???? (I understand the instillation fee & wasn't expecting anything free again but $45?!?) Oh and get this the lip one was sealed with an "O" ring and it popped off an hour later and I had to overnight ship a lip retainer and I got 30 for $7.... I went in today since they said they could put back in the piercings without another instillation fee and I mentioned I wanted to try a lip ring instead. I was given my options and was told we could change the color. The piercer brought me back, put in the ring and when I asked about the color they said I'd have to buy another one since they're supposed to do that beforehand. That was not explained to me and I would have to pay for the one she put in even though I wanted to try it out.This cost me $22 for a lip ring I don't even like and is a color I hate. No offer to discount it or a real apology. All in all save your money and go somewhere else if you need a retainer. I spent $70 total and all i have to show for it is 2 glass bars and a lip ring I hate. This is no hate to the piercer themselves I am just frustrated with the price, the fact the retainer I paid for didn't stay and the lack of proactive communication.

    Customer Service Needs Improvement - *Reading through the reviews, looks like this is a common…read morecomplaint* Me and my sister went in to get a new earring for a piercing I already had. I wasn't expecting them to put it in for me. It's an earring I can easily replace myself. They brought us in to where the piercing chair is. And introduced us to Rachael. I said to her "The price of the jewelry includes the install? Which she replied Yes. When I went to pay for my earring. She charged me $50 for the earring when she had originally told me it was $35. Then there was a $15 charge for the install. When I asked about the charge and told her Rachael said it was included. She said no it isn't. She offered to refund it, when all the sudden the artist Rachael came out and was quite aggressive & unprofessional! She wouldn't even listen to what we had to say. We were questioning the $15 install charge. Not attacking anyone. Full disclosure is all we were wanting. Just let us know the exact amount we are going to be charged. I don't have a problem paying someone for their services. What I do have a problem with is when they DON'T TELL YOU, and you find out when you go to pay. Was handled very immature & unprofessional.

    I got the most beautiful tattoo ever from Beeker last week! The entire experience from start to…read morefinish was awesome. We had a consultation in September (this is how popular she is - I waited a little over 2 months for my date and it was so worth it) where I told her what I was looking for and she talked about ideas that would work with it to make it even more lovely. I am an avid knitter and hot air balloon enthusiast so I was looking for something like a hot air balloon that looked like a ball of yarn. Beeker explained that a ball of yarn might not look enough like a hot air balloon and came up with an idea to do a balloon with a picture of a yarn ball on it in my favorite colors. As far as the actual experience went, the shop was nice and quiet and clean. Beeker and one of her coworkers were bantering back and forth and making me laugh so hard that I had to bite my tongue to keep from shaking my arm. There was another lovely couple getting a tattoo and they actually bought me a bubble tea! Isn't that the sweetest? Oh, and weird thing to compliment but their bathroom is decorated really cool. And since they are cash only, they are kind enough to provide an ATM onsite. Can't wait to go back sometime soon so that my brother and I can get matching tattoos!!!

    just don't. i got a finger tat here with joe, line work wasn't good in the first place and in less…read morethan a month half of it was faded (that part is sorta expected, i have multiple tats including hand/finger ones so i understand that they hold ink differently). so i go in to get it touched up since i was told that i get a free touch up. im getting it done and half way through he TELLS me (doesn't ask beforehand) that he's using a thicker needle this time, which i didn't ask for, i simply asked him to go over the faded part. the moment it was finished it was clearly blown out and somehow the part that was faded the most was literally still faded. afterwards he told me id have to pay for any more touch ups even though it had only been a couple weeks and half of it was gone (which is fine because i wouldn't plan on going back if it was free). im sure that there are good artists there but this one really didn't give a fuck if i knew what was going on, didn't care if i was satisfied with my tat, and decided to make changes without asking me. it sucks bc a lot of his work is really good but i'd go somewhere that cares more.
