The Faith & Glory Collective are a small group of tattoo artists that banded together to form their…read moreown shop after years and years of working for larger, well known companies. The idea, as it was explained to me is simple, "Do what you love." The shop is in downtown Kitchener just above a 20/20 Optical which sounds like an odd place but the space is perfect. There isn't a lot of walk in traffic but you can always show up without an appointment and if they're busy they'll book you in right there. Calling ahead is always your best option as these gentlemen can have a waiting list. There are four artists (plus an apprentice) that call this place home and each one has his own style. Just taking a look around the shop is a good indication of how well rounded they are as the walls are covered in sketches and drawings all done by the shop artists. Sometimes they have prints for sale of these pieces. The shop itself is open, well lit and clean as a whistle. Everything is sterilized and packaged properly. Counters and work stations are constantly wiped down, cleaned and cleaned again. There is a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere that seems inviting and positive. I think it's just a natural side effect of enjoying your work. There isn't much in the way of parking so you might have to hunt for a spot at a parking lot close by (a block or so away at best, two or three at worst).

I've decided to get a partial sleeve, at a higher age range than typical for a lady these days. My fingers invariably keep landing on their site as a place I know will take great care of me and give me a first class tattoo that will give me pride to look at for the rest of my life. I'll be booking my consultation with someone soon guys! Well done on your success.

The whole place was neat as a pin and covered with a range of beautiful artwork, mostly related to tattoos, but also just good art. The staff were all friendly and professional and welcoming. At the end we each had two new tattoos that were all beautifully done, and we'd had a really nice couple of hours in a great environment. So happy!
