    I've been to Mohave Creative twice now. Once to get a new piece of (art) ink, and the other time to touch up the work I got done. Both times I was super impressed with how clean the studio is kept, and also how inspirational the tattoo artists are!! They really are passionate about their work, and do an amazing job bouncing ideas while designing/creating the vision for your tattoo. I've always called ahead to check how busy they are, but never needed to book an appointment. I was given water to make sure I stayed hydrated - and felt really comfortable thanks to their awesome team!

    Sherry did an amazing job on my first tattoo. She was great! I'm extremely satisfied and love my tattoo. Highly recommend her. Very friendly, supportive, patient and talented! Thank you for the great work, sherry!

    The instructions were "I want it to hurt to look at" & boy did Milk knock it out of the park

    My whole experience here was great! Super quick response time over the app, consultation was scheduled right away. Everyone is super sweet & encouraging too; several times the other artists would pop by to see what Milk was up to & they were all really kind. Usually that intimidates me but everyone was genuinely kind & welcoming. Milk was fantastic, very kind & enthusiastic about the design, super chill dude. He killed it! I was blown away & have gotten so many compliments on this piece. Already trying to dream up my next one. I highly recommend them!

    The blood on the tray when we walked in

    I wish I could give 0 stars, I am writing to express my deep concern regarding my recent experience at your studio with piercer Jonny Ocean. What was meant to be a straightforward piercing session turned into a deeply unsettling and unprofessional ordeal. When I entered the piercing room, I noticed leftover blood on the tray from the previous client, which immediately raised concerns about cleanliness. Before the piercing even began, Jonny had me and my friends rummaging through his drawers and loose piercings to find the right jewelry. This lack of organization and professionalism was concerning. When I questioned his ability to perform the piercing, he became defensive and proceeded to brag about how skilled he was, growing visibly upset with me for expressing my concerns. Throughout the session, Jonny rarely used gloves and even asked my friend to "glove up and help me, please!" which was extremely disturbing. It was clear he was not following basic hygiene protocols, making me feel incredibly unsafe. As the session continued, which ended up lasting two hours instead of the expected 30 minutes, he continued to argue with me and blame my body for the issues he was having instead of taking responsibility for his inability to do the piercing correctly. He had a random client, put gloves on and try to help him. He did 2 piercings on me, 2 back dermals. He took an hour and a half to do the first one, I then instructed him on how I got my face dermal, and then he did the 2nd piercing that way. The first one he did then fell out a few days later. The 2nd one stayed in. I had a dermal anchor floating under my skin, after the top Jonny could not attach fell off. I had to go to another piercer, who then had to find the anchor, and fix it. By the end of the session, I left feeling physically uncomfortable and emotionally distressed. My trust in Mohave Creative Tattoo was completely shattered. I strongly urge your studio to reassess the professionalism and practices of your staff, particularly Jonny Ocean. This experience was a betrayal of both my safety and my trust.

    My LOVE! Thank You endlessly, Dean

    I just Absolutely LOVE Mohave Creative! not only did Dean help me to bearth the Perfect concept of the foot tattoo I wanted. but he also brought my dream to Life! & I still Obsess over my piece. plus, Everyone that works there is Dope AF! shoutout to Cody, who is Always a Pleasure to talk to on the phone. & another shoutout to Jonny Ocean for building one of the RADDEST tattoo shops in existence! I LOVE Y'ALL SOUL MUCH!!! if you can't tell by now, I HIGHLY recommend getting tatt'ed at Mohave Creative.

    A whole vibe !

    This was my first experience at this shop. It was an impromptu visit but scheduling was very easy to do. Everyone was very friendly and the shop was very clean! Some places have artists and piercers that don't switch out gloves enough or can be unhygienic but not this place. The entire shop was a vibe and everyone was very welcoming. I had the pleasure of working with Chris. I originally came because my best friend passed away and I wanted to get a tattoo to treasure her by. I first went in to get a separate tattoo that I've always wanted for years and never found the right person to do it. From the get go Chris was exceptional! He talked it through with me and came up with ideas and he's good company when you're on the chair vibing to the shop music together. His work is amazing and I highly recommend chatting to him about some of his own original pieces! I absolutely loved my first piece and I knew he was perfect to get that second tattoo for my best friend. It was easy to get in contact with him to discuss ideas and I was blown away when he showed me his sketch. He went above and beyond and put in little details that really made it so special for me. Chris would talk to me about tattoo care and even tell me little details about why he would use each needle and how it suited what I was trying to achieve. He's definitely the best person for the goals I had and my two new pieces are healing beautifully! I will definitely be returning to him again when the tattoo needle calls to me again. Although my interaction was mainly with Chris and the two lovely ladies who worked at the appointment desk, I got to meet some of the other artists and the owner of Mohave Creative and each one of them are so talented! This is definitely the place to go because I'm confident any one of them would make your vision come to life. Dean does some crazy work and I saw a medusa tattoo that Milk was working on that looked insane! And Kat is meticulous to details and will perfect any idea you have! A super huge thanks to everyone I met there but Chris really sold me on the entire experience and I cannot recommend him enough!

    Second time in here and I love these guys! They literally make you feel at home and like family! Special thanks to MILK and his amazing talent. He makes me feel at ease and talks to me making me forget that he's giving me a tattoo. Thanks to Cody up front for being such a sweetie. These guys are amazing. Definitely coming back because this is addicting. Thanks to my daughter for bringing me and her step mom here. Making us feel young again! Thanks gentleman... we'll see you in a couple weeks

    got my belly pierced here and it was so crooked. super dissatisfied as i am left with this hole/scar for the rest of my life.

    Absolutely in LOVE with my tattoo from KD-- it was a super simple process to book (ty to every employee who helped me through yelp!) and the girl at the front was efficient and sweet checking me in. The studio itself is GORGEOUS and bigger than I expected! The vibes were immaculate and the artists as well as clients all seemed excited to be there. I used to work in a prominent tattoo studio in Las Vegas, so I tend to judge studios harder than most, and I really, really enjoyed my time today with KD. Looking forward to seeing her and the lovely staff again soon!

    I went in as a walk-in on NYE and had the most amazing experience! I was in and out for an impromptu tattoo sesh. Sam was great, super nice and professional (even tho I had to have my stencil moved a few times due to my OCD) I couldn't be happier with my new tattoo! I would definitely recommend this place, especially Sam

    UPDATE: My review is being reported, and I will not be bullied into changing my review. I 100% stand by everything I have said. I even made sure to say "illegal substance" because I really don't know what your employee took. But yes, I am sure he was high. ________________________________________________________________ ORIGINAL REVIEW: Worst tattoo ever. If I could leave zero stars I would. I wasn't even going to leave a review until I received further TERRIBLE customer service. Also, unlike my other tattoos (which are 20 years older) from other shops, this one is blurring, and literally flaking off my skin. It isn't even 3 years old yet. I have to avoid exfoliating it, and it doesn't even get any sun exposure. The needles were painless, and everything was going great until my artist asked to randomly take a break before coloring/shading. It is a very small tattoo, he was almost finished, and would have taken under an hour total. He came back extremely high on an illegal substance. He then proceeded to spell my boyfriend's name wrong, despite outlining it correctly when he wasn't under the influence, and then didn't do a great job of covering it up. It looks like a blob of gray White Out. The owner attempted to make it right, offering me a refund which I accepted. They then changed their mind and said if I wanted to come into the shop to get it fixed, they would help me. I repeated that I could not travel 1,300 miles to do so, and was again told that when I'm in the area I could get it fixed. I again asked for the refund I was initially promised, and they have stopped responding all together. You are lucky I don't type out every detail of what I overheard of your staff meeting while waiting despite having an appointment. You were openly discussing ongoing sexual harassment issues, and other inappropriate behaviors happening in your shop. Very unprofessional.

    A group of four of us walked in only an hour before closing, and the staff here was very accommodating, didn't make us feel rushed and did a really great job. All four artists we worked with were excellent, took our ideas and stenciled them out for us and got us in and out efficiently - with great new tattoos! Highly recommend! Four photos attached of our four tattoos!

I developed an extremely painful, very swollen, pus-filled dental abscess late last month, and called Fuller Smiles to see if they could have me come in that day to have it get evaluated or drained. I was told by the receptionist that no one could see me same day, and since it was a Friday I could check back on Monday. The abscess was swollen and painful and if left untreated can cause more infection, loss of the tooth, and sepsis, and I pointedly asked the receptionist so I can't be seen even if it's an abscess and a dental emergency? To which the receptionist replied no and asked me to check back three days later when they're open again on Monday. Of course, I found a different facility and got it drained that day and was confirmed by the other dentist of the abscess. I then went back to this Fuller Smiles a few days later to get it evaluated by Dr. Katie, my usual dentist, and she did a CT scan for me and referred me to an endodontist. I called the receptionist at Fuller Smiles today and asked if the results of my CT scan could be sent to the endodontist or to myself to show the endodontist so they could get a complete picture of what's going on. The receptionist then tried to tell me I didn't get a CT scan done, when I know I did because I was literally in the machine getting it done a few weeks ago. I then told her the date of the test and she found the record but then told me she couldn't send it over to me because of software issues, even though it is my legal right to get a copy of my imaging tests. I asked her how the endodontist would be able to evaluate me then without having my test results and she basically told me to get another repeat CT scan done there, without any regard to any unnecessary radiation exposure that would mean or if insurance would cover it. Overall I thought the dentists here were great, but Jackie at the front desk was very unsympathetic and unhelpful, and I am considering taking my business elsewhere just so I don't have to deal with her anymore.

It's so rare to find a dentist like Dr. Mashkouri. I only wish I had found her sooner.

    I've been to a handful of good dentists before, but Dr. Mashkouri is phenomenal…read more I had to reschedule an appointment last minute due to being sick. I wasn't given a passive aggressiveness "it's fine" or anything of the sort. They were accommodating and nice; I was able to get another appointment within 2 weeks time. When I arrived, I had mistakenly only filled out my COVID-19 form so I had to fill out the others while waiting. Be sure to fill these out ahead of time to not delay their patient load (don't be like me). I was shocked to see how generous, supportive, communicative, and directional Dr. Mashkouri was. Her bedside manners are incredibly polished. She was very thorough and she taught me a lot within a 15 minute timeframe. The rest of the staff is equally as great. I switched to this practice due to proximity to my home/work and I'm so glad that I did. I will definitely be back and highly recommend them to anyone! The dental practice is extremely clean and up-to-date. I've never been offered a massage while on the chair so I was a bit confused when asked, but it's so nice that they have it!
