Update First: Honestly, Randy might be a good artist. Randy might take care of you. I'm not sure…read more But that was not the experience I had, nor do I believe that this shop has acceptable conduct. Since my horrible experience, it has come to my attention that my experience is not singular. The routine appears to be; Chris, without a care in the world mutilates you, you contact Randy for help, they tell you "come on in, Randy will fix it right up." To get more patronage out of you. Keep in mind, Chris has not been tattooing for a single year or something. Also keep in mind, I'm not able to simply have it "fixed up" right away, because it was done so deep and so poorly that four months later it is STILL not healed enough to be worked on. The rest of it is so unshaded and light that it's fallen out and is just a skin tinted gray. There's bumps constantly growing in the skin that don't go away for a long time, I could go on and on and on. This is embarrassing and ridiculous, I've got no other words to describe it. If you think that this is acceptable conduct, this is the place for you. Not to mention the rates, 130 an hour for a person to replicate like a blindfolded toddler trying to shade in-between lines as fast as humanly possible. If you like angry guys pretending you don't exist while they take their frustrations out on your skin, permanently, this is the place for you. Either way, this is a gamble, there's far less scary options than flipping a coin here. I grow hopeful that someone I trust can cover this up for me eventually however, and hopefully it'll be a nice piece and this is all a story I tell in the future, and I will be telling thing story. Stay safe, do your research on shops, most importantly don't let someone who looks pissed and won't talk to you bring a needle to your skin. Picture doesn't do it justice just how bad it is.
Original Review: Genuinely 0 communication about anything, not about the tattoo, aftercare etc but also about placement, shading, literally spoke about four words to me. Paid for an hour got about 30 minutes for a very rushed tattoo that's got no shading at all in some spots and is way too deep in others. Shading literally seriously entirely outside of the lines. Literally been told it looks like it was not done in a shop. Also had our double appointment moved last minute, artist was impossible to reach and probably just wanted to spit the tattoos out and leave rather than actually craft art. First time experience so it felt impossible to recognize the problems and red flags.
