I just walked in, and they were able to get me in. When you arrive, be aware they are cash only there is an ATM inside incase you don't have cash! You are also greeted by the cutest shop pup ;) The girl that did my piercing was really nice and did a great job! I unfortunately had to go back two times after, and they were amazing every time due to my own fault. I had to take out piercing due to sleeping on it! However, I would go back in a heartbeat to get the other side done!

And then didn't even want to charge me (I tipped, of course). I'm leaving a review because (1) they were super nice and (2) the studio itself is gorgeous.

I had an appt of which I was excited to go to. That morning I was called to the hospital because my…read moregrandchild tried to commit suicide. The last thing in my mind was calling to reschedule my appt. I called as soon as I got home that afternoon and explained my situation. Landon, who was to do my tattoo said I should have called and my $100 deposit was gone, but he'd take another $100 deposit to reschedule! Really! It wasn't like I just forgot about it or anything. I was looking forward to it but my grandchilds life took priority over making a phone call! Needless to say, I'm going elsewhere for my tattoo. So if you or a family member are dying be sure to stop and make that call!

She walked me through the process and checked with me multiple different times on if i liked the design. I also wasn't sure where i wanted it placed and she helped me find a great spot for it.

Even when i walked in everyone else made me feel welcome and helped me with the signing in process. i definitely recommend this place and to get your work done by Liz.

The process was smooth and simple. We showed up 10 minutes early and Liz was waiting. She and a gentleman tattoo artist greeted us and were both pleasant. We even had a little mishap coming in and everyone joked about it and made us feel more comfortable. We proceeded up to Liz's work space which was cute and quaint. She was very well organized and clean. We discussed placement and she helped my daughter make an educated decision. She asked about the meaning of the tattoo and we chatted the entire time. My daughter said she had a very light hand and is very happy with her new ink and is looking to book with Liz again in the future for her floral piece.

In the building she shares with other small business owners, her room is very inviting and warm. Me and my friend went for a fine line tattoo, and to say we weren't disappointed was an understatement! Megan was so warm and welcoming as soon as we walked in from her bright smile to a great personality!! She tried several different size tattoos on each of us so we could see exactly what size we wanted, which I really liked. All thru out we talked and it was very relaxing! Her work was amazing. She also specializes in brows, which she does an awesome job on as well. If you're looking for a great fine line tattoo artist, she is your girl!!

My fiancée went here to get a remembrance tattoo in honor of our son who we lost in October of…read more2017. It would have been his 16th birthday the day she was tattooed. The original design was the heart ribbon and semi colon, but she wanted to also incorporate our son's finger print. In all fairness to the tattoo artist, the appointment was scheduled the day of and she was obviously having a very emotional day rightfully so. So I am sure the artist was trying to meet her requests out of respect to her. Simply stated the tattoo visually is a mess. Even the technical aspects of her tattoo are below sub par. The finger print looks nothing like what the artist was given and the line work, shading and coloring is lackluster. She specifically requested no black or grey outlining, but he did it anyways. The shop was dirty and the staff was smoking onsite. Today she is having this train wreck covered up by a different shop around the corner. It's a shame because the tattoo design meaning and date received will forever be lost now. I was shocked to see what he did to the figure print. If he was not skilled in doing fine line work he should have simply told her that and suggested to eliminate that piece of the tattoo. I am sure when he was done with the tattoo he realized that it was terrible, if not then he should be looking for another line of work. Please avoid this place at all costs! Always research the shop and artist before committing.

I was extremely particular and careful, asked a bunch of questions, but everyone there was super patient with me. They were very excited they were doing my first tattoo as well. Pat took my suggestions seriously about the design, during and before inking, and didn't make me feel like an idiot. I brought in a picture of the design I wanted and he nailed it. Everyone compliments my tat on it's vibrant color and spectacular shading. It was also relatively inexpensive as far as tats go. My next tat I am definitely going here. I highly recommend it!

He is really easy to talk to and explain what I wanted. He also uses his own experience to help guide you so you can end up with the best tattoo possible. As I sat there getting tattooed yesterday a few people walked in and out. Steve was super nice to everybody and it really makes it a nice experience. Other shops I have been in are a little standoffish or not welcoming but this shop is great for anybody. I could not be happier with my tattoo so far and can't wait to finish it up at the end of the month. I would refer anyone to check this place out. Two thumbs up!
