Wanted to do something special for Valentine's Day with my husband. All it took was one quick call,…read morecar ride and short consultation. Within hours we were getting uniquely designed tattoos!! We were greeted and tattooed by Travis, the owner at Savage Kat Tattoo Co in Auburn, WA! His professionalism and skills were absolutely outstanding. We got extremely lucky that he happened to be free due to a cancellation. The universe was truly looking out for us! He sat with us and listened to everything we liked, wanted and hoped for. Designed multiple options for us and modified our chosen designs until they were everything we could dream of. The designs were perfectly matching for the both of us while being tailored uniquely for our own preferences and placements. This was also my husband's first tattoo! I'm so thankful we had such a lovely experience with a tremendous artist who showed my husband everything that a tattoo appointment and experience truly should be. Travis was so great in offering advice on placement according to anatomy and future tattoo plans to ensure a perfectly done tattoo. He made sure he got our approval on everything every step of the way and clarified spelling multiple times throughout the process to guarantee no chance of mistakes or misspelling. This was a small but extremely notable thing for us and really showed how involved and invested Travis is in both his art and his clients. After each of our completed tattoos, he was kind enough to take a video and photos of our tattoos and send them to us. This was so nice. We could immediately show off to friends and family - and in way better lighting and angles then we'd have been able to get ourselves! While there, I also decided to purchase a high quality nose jewelry that Toxic, a tattoo/piercer at the shop, was even willing to put in for me. We cannot recommend them enough, Travis and the whole Savage Kat Tattoo Co team, for all of your tattoo and piercing needs! This place is high quality only. We will be visiting again!!!! Thank you!!!!!!

I am writing this review for my partner as he is too kind.... The apprentice David refused to do…read morehis tattoo in the 3 different locations he requested and also asked for it to be oriented differently and also got refused. Yes he should've just left and not allowed him to do the tattoo in a location he did not want but he is too nice as I mentioned and also had been waiting for 2 hours for this tattoo. The tattoo itself is nice, just bad service and I think artists should just allow people to place tattoos where they desire, it's not like he was asking for it to be on his forehead... he wanted it on his leg yet ended up with it on his arm.

I happened to walk in by chance, and the entire process--from making an appointment to the consultation--was very professional. After asking about my tattoo ideas, they recommended my tattoo artist, Rich, because he has a different specialty. His strength is portraits, and he has been working in the industry for nearly 30 years. Environment: The shop is very clean and tidy, with comfortable lighting and wide seats. The walls are covered with tattoo designs and related awards. Experience: During the tattooing process, the procedures were absolutely clean and sterile. Rich also shared some knowledge about tattoos, life in Seattle, and more. The whole experience was very enjoyable. I've already started planning to expand my tattoo area, and I will keep posting updates on my tattoo results.

We made an appointment ahead of time which was easy to schedule over the phone. We had to sign some paperwork and pay first and then we were taken back to the piercing room. I forget the name of the girl who pierced us but she was nice and pretty informative. BJP gets a bad reputation for not being a "real" tattoo/piercing shop so I will say I was a little nervous (even though I've had stuff done here before) but I feel like she did a great job.
