It's not easy to find someone who creates art rather than just focusing on getting customers in and out. I come back to the establishment each time because the cleanliness and eye pleasing aesthetic is enjoyable each and every time. Haven't tried other artists work, even here, so maybe my opinion could be considered biased. But the work speaks for itself. You have options for classy tattoos, funny tattoos, tattoos with meaning, I mean there's really a endless list. Always greeted with welcoming energy, and little to no wait. Walk ins are welcome but I'm sure it varies with availability as well. BY THE WAY, I drew those dogs. He tattooed them exactly as I drew those dinky little rats. Love it.

Honestly such a great experience…read more I had Jerry do a tattoo for me YEARS ago. On a whim we stopped by and my mom wanted to get something small. We called ahead to see what their protocol was since all this craziness and they said they had available time. We were greeted by a super nice lady, she was pumped for the tattoo idea and we emailed what the photos over. It took longer for my mom to have them switch the font and the sizes around than it did for the actual tattoo. I was so pleased that Jerry took the time to say look, this is how it would look best from an artistic point of view. He didn't just slap a tattoo on and call it a day. It was only $50 and of course my mom added a tip. I highly recommend them! There are several other great artists in the shop as well.

He asked me to send him some pictures I liked and detail what it was that I liked about them. I showed up for my appointment and Mike had four designs for me to choose from. I liked them all and made my decision. I chose a fairly large phoenix for my upper arm. Mike worked on it for about an hour and a half. The outline and background are done but I had to schedule the coloring of it for another time. Mike did an excellent job and gave very clear aftercare instructions. I love it and can't wait to see it colored. It's truly art. I'll add a picture to this review after it's colored in. I have several more tats that I want and I will definitely be back to American Classic Tattoo to get them.

Also, Mike was very patient with me. Like most customers, I had an idea in my head, but nothing concrete.

As a Navy Vet, I'm so proud to have the perfect symbol of my loyalty to show off for the rest of my life. Mike, all my thanks and I will definitely be seeing you soon to show you the healed product, and to bring friends and family along!!!
