We called Benjamin, who owns Universal Rites, and he was able to get us in the next day! We came in and the space has a really cool vibe. It's very comfortable, clean, and has a lot of fun artwork on the walls. He did such an amazing job with the tattoo and he was so great to work with. Also, the pricing felt very reasonable for the amount of time and effort he spent putting this together. If you're in Ashland then please check this place out!

Even bringing in my own high quality jewelry that meets piercer standards, she still would only change out with pieces from the shop's preferred brand. Again not awful, but would only recommend simpler piercings. Wiloe was an awesome tattoo artist tho, 10/10! Edit, regarding comment from owner: this is retroactive based on my experience from a couple years ago (only recently got on Yelp) but with your comment I see your practices may have changed. Thanks!

Today I walked in for a tattoo and a piercing. I knew exactly what I wanted and Korynn had the stencil ready for me within minutes. While I waited I had Melinda pierce my daith. Quick, easy, comfortable, with minimal pain. I love it and she was so funny and made the whole experience so enjoyable. From the second Korynn called me to the back it took about 10 minutes to do my tattoo. She was very efficient and very sweet. It was my first tattoo and I felt like she was very light handed and gentle. She then explained very nicely the aftercare procedures and what to expect. It made for a great day and I will definitely be returning for more piercings/tattoos soon. Thank you to everyone at Epic Ink.

It is a studio attached to her home, so don't be afraid to walk up to the door and come in. Door is on side of house and well marked. I was so impressed with Mori's sketch book I decided to finally get the tattoo I always wanted. For 9 years I have looked for an artist who shared my asthetic. I went to several places in Seattle but never found a good fit. She worked with me until we got the design just the way I wanted. She was patient and kind. I couldn't be more happy with the results. Again, she was very thorough with her post-procedure instructions. As a nurse practitioner I was glad to see she had an autoclave for sterilizing her equipment and that she used new needles on each person. She carefully inspected each needle before use using a jeweler eyepiece. I would highly recommend Mori.

No one is expecting you to be, but we do expect you to do quality tattoos when you are yielding a tattoo gun to people's skin. This is permanent, forever. Absolutely atrocious, if you care about your body, your artwork don't let Mori come anywhere near you with a needle....and to add insult to injury, the crap she tries to sell you to heal your tattoo is awful and painful, not only is my tattoo horrific but infected as well from whatever vodoo stuff she gave me. Luckily she has a "light hand" as she brags, so maybe laser treatment will be able to get out this awful job.
