    Gin felt like an old friend and made the experience fun and comfortable. This shop has great atmosphere with a perfect location.
    Betty F.

    I've been getting tattooed for about 17 years now and finally found an artist and shop I feel comfortable in. During my visit the shop was filled with all women, which felt empowering. The owner seems to have created an inviting atmosphere for both artists and clientele. I went to Gin Hicks and can't wait to return for more work and a lot of fixing previous artwork from old tattoos. I love her direct East Coast personality. She is focused, precise and completely unpretentious. I enjoyed all the artists in the shop and think they all serve different aesthetic preferences. Easy street parking, directly on the bus route and lots of places close by to grab a snack or drink.

    Awesome black speckle cuffs by Ms.Mikki!

    Ms.Mikki is the coolest lady you'll meet hands down! She's an awesome artist and a great/interesting person to chat with. I love how she sees tattooing as cohesive to the other pieces you have, rather than just 'I do the design and we're done'. Her creativity and skills as a tattoo artist are probably the best I've come across and both my cuffs healed up very well!

    What I love about this place: Ms. Mikki is a true artist. With the most gentle touch. Amazing spirit. Love and kindness radiate from her. The shop is light, clean, inviting, friendly and organized. As for my tattoo, I couldn't love it more. I went to Mikki with an idea and emailed some pictures. What she came up with was beyond my highest expectation. We've completed 3 sessions and each time it is more and more beautiful. I'm not sure how it is possible, but its true. Green Tara just keeps getting better.

    I'm a loner. A rebel.

    I've been dreaming up a particular tattoo for 10+ years and had never found the right artist. THEN I came upon Brynn's portfolio! Her bold, vivid style with plenty of attention to detail (and bonus appreciation of pop culture) blew me away! I made an appointment a few months prior so it would coincide with a family visit to Portland. Brynn was extremely accommodating and answered/acknowledged every question and concern I had leading up to the appointment. Fortune Tattoo is a BEAUTIFUL shop in a great location. It's very bright, open and clean. Full of character, but not too cluttered or overwhelming. The staff was warm and welcoming - there is a palpable sense of family/community in that shop. My appointment was about 4 hours, but it flew by! Between my social awkwardness and Brynn's professional super-duper concentration on fine details of my tattoo, we didn't chat too much, but she was fabulous and friendly! She often asked how I was doing and offered breaks after some particularly tender points of the piece. I could not be happier with the end result! I love the style, design, colors... everything about it. It's SO dreamy! I'll definitely be returning to Brynn/Fortune Tattoo for any and all future inky endeavors!

    Leo Tattoo w/ Ruby Crown By Ms. Mikki
    Keisha O.

    So I moved to Oregon almost 2 years ago, and I've been looking for an artist to do a lion piece for me. I'm a leo which obviously means my gem is a ruby (hence the tattoo) I went in to have a consult with Mikki and she had the confidence I needed to see right away. Every other artist i visited before her was honest with me in saying they couldn't make my lion realistic enough. When I asked if it would be a problem she laughed and said absolutely not. She knew exactly what she was doing and had no doubt she could pull off the tattoo I wanted.. sure enough 3 hours later she created this beautiful piece (still not done) and I could not be more happy. Easily the best place I've gotten a tat. THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!

    Ms. Miki's bad day of tattooing.
    Lori G.

    We all have bad days, but you NeVeR want to catch a tattoo artist on one of theirs. I was getting a tattoo enhancement, because my existing lotus was fading, as it was not outlined. I chose Ms. Miki because she clearly has some beautiful work and seeming knowledge of sacred art. We had a consultation and she asked me what I liked about my tattoo and where I saw it going as we were enlarging it. I showed her examples of her own work that I adored. We set the appointment and I asked to come back before the final sitting for a preview of what she had come up with. She said 'no', that she would have a few variations ready for me. Day of the appointment. I arrive on time. Ms Miki doesn't. Finally coming in over half and hour late, she has NO art drawn up for me. She says she'd rather "freestyle" it. I should have walked out then, but I was leaving the state the very next day and really trusted her work. In the end, what she tattooed on my arm is a MISFORTUNE. My one lotus then multiplied into three, sitting in a swamp of army green background. It is all very flat, with no precision, no particular feature and no attention to detail. I even stopped her at one point, saying it was not what we talked about. She assured me it would be good by the end. It wasn't. I tried reaching out to her about my disappointment after I had arrived in MT. She admonished me and accepted absolutely no responsibility for the lousy and permanent work she did. She told me to find another tattoo artist. When I tried to see her upon two separate occasions in PDX she was unavailable to consult with me. You won't see my tattoo done by Ms. Miki in any of her portfolios.

    Marine Corps tattoo done by Olivia. Damn good job. If you are ever in Portland, you gotta stop by!
    Darryl A.

    Just retired from 27 years of service with the Marine Corps. Looked up Fortune Tattoo and sent an email about getting a Marine themed tattoo. Ms Mikki recommend Olivia for the job. She hooked me up with an awesome tattoo depicting my time in the Corps. If you want a quality tat, this is the place to go.

    YAY for Fortune Tattoo! This shop is beautiful, clean and tasteful. It is full of light and warm energy that made me feel immediately welcome. Well done guys! But really, this review is for Ms. Mikki is the one! Her touch is delicate and her work is amazing. She's clean, professional and knowledgeable. Her experience in the tattoo industry is only part of what makes her such and amazing tattooist. She is a true artist and has made my blurred descriptions of imagery into beautiful clear pieces of art on my body that cause all different types of people to stop me regularly to ask me who does my tattoos. Though I met her when she was tattooing in Oakland, CA, I have stayed true over the last 10 years she has been tattooing me. When she moved to Oregon from a California I traveled here (and still do) to get her to put the hurt on me. :) She can do anything from bright and detailed floral work, and beautiful goddess/deities with incredible background scenery, to perfect black and grey skulls and things with a little more punch. Her ability to bring life and color into a tattoo is priceless. I have been tattooed by other artists and I am clear that Mikki will always be my go to gurrrl. She has my trust and complete confidence. In the ever growing and trendy tattoo industry that is being flooded by new aspiring tattooers who don't yet know shit from shampoo, Mikki's 20+ years of ever-evolving experience and skill shine through. As I said, I live in Oakland, ca-- but I will continue to make the trip up to get worked on by Ms. Mikki. she never disappoints. xo happy decorating :)

    My husband just got a leg piece done by Ms Mikki. It is really amazing to look at! The shop girl was super knowledgible and friendly whenever we called. We will be back soon!

    I am so glad I found Virginia! I originally told her I…read morewanted a poppy, and she came up with a beautiful drawing of 3 different poppies at different stages of blooming. She didn't know at first but this was for my daughter, and it was the perfect art work to honor her that fit me perfectly. She also did a tribute tattoo on my other arm for my mom that was in perfect fine line that looks like it was hand written in one strike. She was easy to work with, really fun to talk to, and somehow made 4 hours fly by. I didn't think I'd want another tattoo for awhile but I'll definitely be back to Scapegoat to see Virginia soon. Thanks again!

    So glad that I discovered Sarah Carr! She's an all-around exceptional artist to work with, and…read morethat's made me a return customer. Sarah listens closely to what you want and then finds a cute, stylish way to make it work. Her placement is precise, she has a firm yet gentle touch, and her use of color is fantastic (both color theory and saturation). I've never been hip and now I'm getting old, so I'm quite used to feeling anxiously out-of-place in tattoo shops, but Scapegoat is more approachable and welcoming than your average shop. They go out of their way to offer water, space heaters, heating pads, masks, or whatever else might make you feel most comfortable. The artists seem to support and treat each other kindly. The bathroom is a work of art. Everything is clean. It's easy to find unmetered parking a couple blocks away. And this is a vegan business to boot! I couldn't ask for more.
