    Had a reference photo. I got two of them on either arm, both for $100. Done by Jon, he has a very heavy hand but worth it

    I've had three tattoos done here, one by Woody and the other two by Jon. All were walk ins, with the exception of having an exact reference photo.. Both Jon and Woody are great characters and flexible to work with if you work with them too. Ashley is also very professional and great to be around. This shop takes covid precautions very seriously which is incredibly admirable!! Great clean little shop, hands down one of my favorites. (P.S. don't be scared away by the first impression reception skills, they all have cold shells)

    Back tattoo

    The best experience. Jon did my friend and I's tattoo. He made me feel comfortable and did an amazing job. 10/10 recommend.

    My second piece by Chris

    I love Chris, he has now done 2 tattoos for me and I think he did an amazing job. He's a great guy and a great artist I would definitely recommend him to anyone. He did a great job on both my tattoos. I will definitely be sticking with him.

    I called ahead of time and spoke to someone about getting a tattoo; dude was super chill and cool so I decided to drive half an hour to the shop. I was visiting, recently divorced, and looking to get a piece I wanted for a while. Anyways, we arrived and the vibe in here, with the heavy metal music, is super chill and clean and smelled good. I've been in some that didn't, and it freaked me out. A clean tattoo shop with 5/5 stars. Glad I stopped by. I showed Chris a picture of what I wanted, and a few minutes later he had something drawn up; definitely edgier than what I had picked out originally, and I liked his even more. He even made some cool local suggestions, and I left happy with my tattoo. And being honest, it didn't look anything like what I had in my head, but what he came back with was better. The guy that actually tatted me was cool, funny, very chill and calm and skillful. I mean, it's a cross, simple enough, but permanently messing up is a big deal. It's healing nicely and I'm glad I stopped by.

    Jon is the man. Friendly staff, clean shop. Got me in and out for a forearm tattoo in a couple hours. They know what they are doing! Don't waste your time anywhere else. Good prices too.

    I had a tattoo with Ashley today. Ashley was very kind and her stencil of what I wanted looked good, but the result didn't end up as good as I thought it would. The snake's thickness changed throughout it's entire body. This was a tribute tattoo to my friend who passed away and I'm left having to spend more money to get it fixed by my normal artist. I paid in total $200 for this tattoo and really it wasn't even close to worth the money. I'm sure the other artists are great here, but Ashley was a miss, at least with this one. Thankfully my normal artist is more than willing to help me out but overall this was not a win. As an artist (not tattooist) myself, I understand snakes can be pretty difficult to master, but if she didn't feel confident in her skills in tattooing one, I would've preferred that she sent me elsewhere or admitted that she wasn't the right person for the job. I wish the best for everybody here but I would be cautious with using Ashley for something like this. Her other work looks pretty good, so I'm not sure what happened.

Unfortunately, the customer service experience with ownership ultimately drove me (and several friends) away. The biggest issue is how inflexible and dismissive they are with customers regarding booking mistakes and billing issues. One example: I accidentally selected the wrong appointment date in their booking system. I realized it within minutes and immediately messaged the owner to correct it, but because the accidentally selected date was within 24 hours, the system locked me out from making changes myself. Rather than offering any grace or understanding, I was basically told I was out of luck and still charged. I completely understand having cancellation policies in place to protect appointment times. However, when a customer notices a simple mistake immediately, reaches out right away, and there are still multiple openings available for that date, the business has lost absolutely nothing. It feels less like protecting bookings and more like benefiting from customer errors. This apparently was not an isolated experience either. I know multiple people who had similar situations and felt brushed off rather than valued as longtime clients. I also personally experienced recurring issues with billing and automatic renewals/charges tied to the required credit card on file. After enough frustration, I finally decided to leave. It's unfortunate because the product itself is genuinely good. But eventually customer service matters just as much as the service being provided. I truly wanted to continue supporting this business, but it became clear that loyal customers were viewed as expendable rather than appreciated.

    Tanning, teeth whitening, and lash lift, oh my!…read more Lesson learned today is: You are NEVER too old to take care of you I took the dive today and kicked my fears and insecurities to the curb! Life is meant to be LIVED! Since cancer in 2020, I have had neverending adjustments with my body and mind that I continue to have to accept and figure out. Nobody ever talks about the continued changes that your mind and body experience and endure AFTER the chemo, radiation, and surgery. I thought that it would all be "back to normal" afterwards....and yet here I am, almost 5 years since diagnosis, and I'm still adjusting. It's exhausting and annoying...and sad and hard. Being thrown into menopause well before my time and watching the changes that the continued cancer maintenance drugs cause has made me feel older than I'd like. My bones have deteriorated faster than normal, my hair is thin (and I LOVED my long thick hair!), my eye lashes and eye brows are thinner, I've gained weight, my hair is fully grey (which was super weird), my libido is non-existent, I am always tired and have no energy, my memory is awful and I STILL experience brain fog (super frustrating!). While watching myself change, I find myself avoiding mirrors. I dress frumpy and don't put on make-up unless I have to. I just kind of stopped trying. I used to love vacations because I could pamper myself, enjoy family time, let loose, and forget about things for a bit. Soon I'll be leaving for a vacation that we've had planned and purchased for two years now....to celebrate my 5th year out since diagnosis and our 25th wedding anniversary with my amazing husband! I don't want to be frumpy on this trip! I want to feel GOOD about myself while celebrating with my fam! Today, I made a choice to FORCE myself out of my comfort zone and do things to help me feel better. I booked a spray tan session, teeth whitening, and eye lash lift and tint sessions. I was terrified to be standing in my undergarments in front of a total stranger as she sprays all of my rolls and crevices. Before today, I have spent HOURS talking myself out of things out of fear of what others will think. But today, I pushed through the thoughts and just went with it. And you know what? I feel GREAT! Emily was THE SWEETEST, funniest, easiest person to work with and she made me feel completely comfortable and relaxed. She kept me giggling, even with that big plastic thingy in my mouth holding my lips open wide (dumbest I've ever looked in front of a total stranger). I will continue to try and make the best of who I am now and even have my next session in the books! Yes....its first world problems. But I wanted to share, in case anyone else is putting off living and embracing changes. Just go for it! And make sure you get someone like Emily to walk you through it...because I had a great time laughing at myself today AND...my smile looks radiant, my lashes are poppin, and my tan looks phenomenal, I must say! I feel like a million buck Emily and Hannah are TRUE professionals!

I walked out feeling relaxed and beautiful. I've never left a facial feeling confident in my skin. Bethany was amazing. I will 100% be back in the future for more facials. She was very gentle when it came to washing off the cleansers + masks , no tugging, pulling, or roughness. The application of the products was soothing and not messy. This was my first lash lift and tint. So far I am loving it! I can't wait to come back and see Bethany again

Some initial questions by some woman who did not introduce herself (receptionist? hygienist?) and does xrays. Then she tells me someone would be back to do the cleaning. Easily 10 minute wait after she disappears. Then the dentist came in and we discussed my bridge and replacing it in the future. He disappears and that wait was easily 20 minutes. When he finally comes back he says he was working on 2 quotes for the bridge repair (why do that during a cleaning appointment) and then proceeds to clean my teeth. I figure I'm done and some woman (no introduction) comes in and gets me to open my mouth to rattle off to another woman my teeth by number, which were missing, etc. When the woman taking off my bib says we're done, I say something like "I guess I had no cavities?" and she says oh, yeah, you did. No future appointment made to fill the cavities.

We were able to get an appointment quickly with a piercer who has been in the business for 17 years, which is great to have someone with all that knowledge. It took about 20 minutes to get through the paperwork and have the earrings sanitized and when my daughter sat down she spent additional time walking her through all of the steps and expectations - we were never rushed and all questions were respectfully answered. When my daughter got nervous she stopped and calmly walked her through it and waited until she was fully ready again. The piercing sites were marked where my daughter was able to see before hand and adjust as desired, everything was cleaned and then after the piercing she applied a cold saline cloth which my daughter loved. It has been two weeks and so far the piercings haven't caused any pain - we followed the advice to not turn and clean with saline spray only as needed, which is the exact opposite advice I received decades ago and it has worked fantastically. Also, the earring she got had flat backs so they don't poke into her head, which has also provided better comfort then the shopping mall piercing I received as a child. Additionally, we go back after 8 weeks for them to update her earring size, which provides a smaller rod through her ear since the current earring is longer to account for swelling - this is a great option which I wasn't expecting, there is a lot of thought that goes through this entire process! I highly recommend this for a first piercing for your child. It is far more expensive than a mall piercing but such a better experience that it is definitely worth it!

I explained we tried to make an appointment, they were all booked up. Disappointing.
