Can't say enough about how pleased I've been in my work so far with Revolution Ink and Jeff Hubbard…read morespecifically. Jeff did my first tattoo for me a couple years ago, an adaptation of some 125-year-old art for my shoulder. Turned out absolutely beautiful, in spite of a couple rookie decisions on my part that certain things look a certain way. Last night he started in on a leg sleeve for me - I didn't bring anything for reference but a general idea about the theme, and he's running from there. Little different process, and better. Trust your artist - they do this for a living. The leg looks amazing already just in partial linework, but there are hours and hours left- if experience tells me anything it's just going to improve as we go. Jeff's an extremely talented artist and a super nice guy, and the rest of the folks in his shop are doing great work as well, from what I have seen. I'm looking forward to more work. You should go see them too.

The staff is extremely friendly as well. My artist was Megan Carroll (@megancarrolltattoo) and her personality is so awesome! This was my first tattoo and I'm confident I won't be going anywhere else for my next. **Also highly recommend for those who suffer from anxiety. They make sure you're comfortable.

Me and my boyfriend was searching for the best place for getting ears pierced and decided on Classic 13 because of there reputation and high ratings on Yelp. Since no appointment was needed, we came shortly after they'd open. The piercing process wasn't as bad as I had thought and it felt more like a pinch on the skin. Logan did a phenomenal job on making my experience a pleasant one and I surely recommend this place for anyone who's looking to get their first piercing.

Came in last month for a bachelorette night. We all wanted a piercing of some sort. One of the…read moreladies called a day before to make sure they were expecting us. Everyone at the front was so nice. They wore masks and we were required to do so as well. We filled out paperwork, paid and selected our jewelry, a nose ring for me. They sent us outside and we could only go in individually. This part sucked a little because we had no support system during the piercing... but we understood and also appreciated the precautions that were being taken. Tava the piercier took good care of each of us. She took her time and answered questions that I had once I got in the back. I asked not to see the needle. She obliged and kept me informed and calm during the process. It was quick, gentle, with little pain. I was given aftercare documents and a date that I could come back for follow up if I needed to. Overall we got 2 nose, 2 belly button, and a tragus ring. Everyone was pleased. My sis had to stop back in the other day after her diamond fell off her post. They examined her and told her that it was still swollen and couldn't be changed yet. But they have her replacement jewelry and advised that she can come back in a couple months to let them change it.

There's no better tattoo shop than Skinworx, in my opinion! The shop is super clean. The staff is…read morefriendly, patient and knowledgeable! The artists are the best of the best! I trust that Greg vets each artist to insure of that fact! Todd Boling has done my last three tattoos, and he's going to do a cover up on my foot. He's got a light hand and that matters to me because I'm not a fan of pain! I'd said that I wouldn't do the much needed cover up without an Epidural but because Todd has such a light hand, imma do it!! Another plus in Todd's favor is that one of the tattoos he did for me is in Hebrew. I'd done all of my research to make sure that it was correct BUT Todd wanted to do his own research just to double check as well. He wanted to make sure that I had the correct spelling and such! That's huge!! I didn't take offense at all! It blessed me!! Oh and My daughter wants her nose pierced but I'm waiting on Greg to choose a piercer because I know he'll vet them the same way he does his tattoo artists. I don't trust her pretty little nose with just anyone! I trust who Greg trusts!!

All in all, a great place! They only take cash though. They have an ATM on site but if you don't want to use theirs, you should come prepared with cash! Go check them out!

I didn't do anything. my lip was not swollen at all when I arrived to the shop. my mouth feels raw on the inside from the girl's fingernails. they said to wait another week or two to see if it still looks uneven. there is no way these bars are even the same length. the whole experience was weird and unprofessional.

Jeff was honest, direct and fair. His daughter was the highlight of the experience honestly. JJ held my hand the entire time since the foot is pretty painful. She talked and walked me through it like an expert. She's an extremely emotionally intelligent little girl. When I was asked to check the tattoo, she reminded me that I wanted a heart trailing from the airplane which I had totally forgotten about asking for. The front desk woman was extremely nice and helpful. She let me leave my number and they texted me when they were ready for me since I was staying right down the road. This was my first tattoo and I feel really grateful it was such a pleasant experience. I read the other reviews about Jeff being abrasive and I think if you expect a straight shooter who is protective of his business and integrity of the work he does, then you can positively reframe the way you experience him. I would definitely recommend this business.

As soon as I walked back there the first thing he said was it will be $30. He didn't ask what kind of jewelry I wanted or anything. I had to ask him. The guy that was replacing my jewelry was very aggressive putting it in, and squeezing my nose til where I couldn't breathe. He was trembling while doing it and no one as ever done that either. I have never had an experience like that with anyone replacing my jewelry, never! It was the most uncomfortable experience for me I didn't know what to do or say. I should've just left once he started out with the price because I've never paid that much for a basic piece of silver septum jewelry. Then had the audacity to have a gun in his pocket while servicing. Like please sir.
