I was also lucky enough to have Miriam squeeze me in to redo my ear piercings. I wish I hadn't waited until I was moving away to come here, but if I'm in New Orleans again, I will definitely come back. Clean, comfortable space, good music, and great people--10/10 recommend.

At first he seemed fine, if gruff and not all that friendly. He the proceeded to give me both the worst tattoo and worst tattooing experience of my life. I am a heavily tattooed person - I have a full back piece and my hands and stomach tattooed - and the tattooed he put on my inner arm hurt more than any other tattoo I've gotten. It was almost as if he was enjoying causing me pain. When I winced he made mocking comments about my other tattoos being "fine line" no knowing that I have traditional tattoos other places on my body. And the tattoo itself is the worst applied one I've ever gotten. It's completely blow out and looks like I've had it for 100 years. I cannot recommend anyone get tattooed here.

I got a matching tattoo with my best friend almost a year ago at this shop. She had a different…read moreartist and had a great experience -- she was comfortable and her tattoo turned out exactly how she wanted. Unfortunately, my experience with Mo was very different. Even though we called ahead and were told walk-ins were fine, it felt like Mo wasn't prepared for me. Instead of setting up a proper tattoo table (which I saw folded up in the corner), he had me lie on my side on a small, unstable bench. As a bigger girl, this was extremely uncomfortable. I was literally struggling to stay on the table the entire time, and the position was awkward for the placement of the tattoo. I told him multiple times that I was uncomfortable and that the position hurt more than the tattoo itself, but nothing was done to make me more comfortable. At the time, I didn't push the issue because I was happy with how the tattoo looked initially. Now, almost a year later, the tattoo has changed significantly and no longer looks the same. There's a noticeable gap where the stem meets the flower, and overall it just doesn't look how it should. It's disappointing, especially since my friend is still happy with hers and we went into this experience hoping for matching results. I wish I had been made more comfortable during the session, especially after speaking up, and I wish my tattoo had held up better over time. Overall, I was unhappy with my experience.

After striking out with some friends' recommendations, I saw Swamp Water Studio in a cute shotgun house as I was pulling out of Marshall's parking lot one evening. I checked out her Instagram account and stopped by. I showed her two pieces of artwork, heard her ideas, and made an appointment. Not only did Brandi do a beautiful rendering of the picture I brought in, but she's a great conversationalist, which made the hour or so sitting fly by. My tattoo healed perfectly without much of that ugly scabby phase at all. She gives you detailed instructions on taking care of it, and guarantees her work forever. I have maybe one more tattoo in mind, and one I'd like "improved." Without a second thought, it's Brandi Bruce who will do it.
