After a recommendation friend, I received a tattoo by the owner. Initially he was friendly and responsive during the planning process. But by the end of my experience with him, I am not impressed with his work and his customer service is terrible. Full story with pictures below.
I asked him for a pine tree with a sound bite from a song below the tree trunk (Picture 1 and 2).
Picture 3 is what the final product looked like for $350.
Picture 4 is after it healed.
When I came back and asked for him to even out the shading, he charged me $150 for a 30 minute session and Picture 4 is what I received.
Picture 5 is after it healed.
I was still dissatisfied with how much I paid and what I received.
I asked for a THIRD time for him to fix this for me, anticipating he would take pride in his work and make this right... I asked him if he could sketch something for me in hopes this would be the LAST touch up needed, but he responded "day of appointment we can do some sketching on your skin"
I showed up to our appointment and was greeted by a locked door. He "forgot" about it. Obviously frustrated, he responded ". At the end of the day, my personal experience shows that the owner doesn't care about his clients satisfaction with his work, has terrible customer service, and price gouges his clients.
Picture 6 is what I was left with after spending $500. Do not recommend. read more
