Lotus tattoo
Kira R.

So I've been wanting to get a lotus tattoo for the longest and wanted to make sure I go to tattoo parlor that excels in color. I literally hopped on yelp and and found this neat little place that's not too close from GSU's campus. I came in for a walk in session and they were very polite I didn't have to wait too long maybe 30-45 minutes I believe. My tattoo artist was Theo and he was super nice and chill. I didn't move that much but I was in a lot of pain and he assured me I was doing great. He got me water at the end as I was a little light headed as this is my second tattoo. (my first one is some tiny writing on my wrist) the tattoo itself is beautiful I'm very impressed and I can't to see it when it heals.

I wanted to showcase my little tat to show they do great jobs, big and small. Me and my friend were walk-ins at 7p and they were able to take us. Quickly showed them what we wanted, filled out the paperwork and waited a couple of minutes before we were called back. I was nervous (fear of needles) and the artist let me talk through my nerves. I was really just stalling but he let me stall. He said he was quick and in the time we talked he could have been done. Takes him less than a minute, he was right. It's a tattoo so it hurt but it was more uncomfortable than anything else. I'm sure getting it on the back of my arm played a part too. He told me about the after care and once he was done, the other artist was done with my friend. I don't remember names but my guy was visiting from another shop and he was super nice and patient with me. The entire session took 10 minutes, including my nervous rambling. Even though I was nervous about the needles, I felt completely comfortable in the shop and with the artist. I'm getting another little script somewhere on me and will definitely be going back here. Being affordable is also a bonus

I always do a ton of research on tattoo shops in the local area before I commit to one, and I happened to stumble upon this gem of a place. I was looking for someone to do a specific style (linework, stippling, geometric, that kind of deal), and Jake Wilkes seemed like the perfect match. I went in for a consultation that you can book via phone, and Jake was nice and helpful! Everyone I interacted with there were very cool. :D The shop was extremely clean and well taken care of. It has an open floorplan, so you can see everybody getting their tattoos. :P Jake executed my ideas so beautifully, it was so much better than I imagined. Lines were impeccable! 10/10 would see him again (and I plan to).

I came here spontaneously with my friend to get tattoos (they accept walk-ins!) Everyone was busy at the moment but they managed to squeeze us in and we only waited for no more than five minutes for an opening. Our tattooist was Charles and he is super kind and attentive. He did such a great job, the placement for my tattoo was perfect! They are very clean. I am the type of person to like a place and stick to it, I'll definitely be back.

The place is eclectic near Grant Park. The people are all very friendly but Kylie was superb! A cute southern girl that listened to my vision and then helped me make it a reality. Very clean place and would definitely go back.

Getting inked by Kylie. Very nice and professional!

Went to Only You Tattoo to get my first tat. They were all so welcoming and professional. It might not look like a doctor office but they run it like one lol. I came in as a walk-in and They immediately greeted me and asked me what I wanted. Right away they begin the draft of the tat. The artist that did mine was Kylie. She was very nice and professional. This was my first one and the pain was very much new to me lol.. I was trying my best to keep it together as she talk to me while tattooing me. By her talking to me it kinda helped me get my mind off the pain a little lol... My overall experience was great! If I ever want to get another one done I will definitely go back to Only You Tattoo..

My daughter just got a tattoo from Theo, and I can't say enough good things about him and about Only You Tattoo. He was extremely patient and worked for some time with my daughter to perfect the drawing of the tattoo to meet her vision. Then he carefully placed the stencil repeatedly until it was in just in the right place. This was her first tattoo and he was so patient with her and put her at ease. She was worried it would hurt but she didn't flinch once, and it was a pretty big tattoo. I believe that was due to his very calm and friendly demeanor. Before choosing Only You Tattoo, we visited numerous shops and it was by far the most professional with a friendly staff and super clean. No one there tries to pressure you into choosing them or into getting the work done immediately. Overall, a stellar shop and top notch artists. We highly recommend Only You Tattoo and Theo.

Phil is the best!! He's done one for me and one for my wife. His work is unparalleled!! He takes…read morethe time to really understand what you want and delivers the end product in spades! It's been 20+ years since my last tattoo, and I'm ready to schedule more now that I know where to go for the absolute best! He's not cheap, nor should he be. I'll happily pay for quality. Highly recommend for anyone wanting ink in Atlanta or anywhere else. I'd travel in a second for his talent!!

I saw the owner of Memorial, Phil Colvin, for my fine line/color/floral/watercolor tattoo…read more I was assured that Phil (w/ 35 years of experience as a tattoo artist) had the abilities & experience to handle this particular style. I provided Phil with a design in the initial consult and a (slightly edited, but essentially the same), design via email a week before the tattoo date. I also brought the image to the actual tattoo appt. Phil is a very nice guy, and owns a clean and professional establishment. He clearly has many years of experience as an artist. While I receive many compliments on the end result, I felt very frustrated during the process with the following: 1.) He added black outlines to a tattoo with very little black outlining (design had it only around the daisy). I found this out the hard way, as I had my eyes closed at the start to manage pain & was trying hard not to move. I didn't realize he had done it until I asked "What are you working on right now? I'm trying so hard to be still for you, that I'm having to keep my eyes shut." I have read much online about the topic of black outlining, and the responses are a mixed bag. 2.) His colors (the shade of green on the leaves, etc.) often did not match the original 3.) He did not choose-- or was not able-- to include the level of detail that the original design represented 4.) He made some other minor artistic decisions that were different than the original (ie: the shading on the daisy). 5.) A couple (not all) of the watercolor marks on original design did not turn out well, and I had to return 2 weeks later to get them covered up with leaves. I spent another $200 going back to Phil to get the small corrections made. In general, if any tattoo artist feels they cannot or do not want to accurately transfer design --- body (or feels that a specific element will not transfer as well), they should COMMUNICATE that to the customer. Something to the effect of, "I see that the design you provided doesn't have much black outlining. I think that black outlining is important because of ______ reason. Therefore, I am going to recommend that we do_______." Two-way communication is critical to the process of getting something permanently inked onto your body. He also was dismissive of the tattoo artist that I hired independently to do the design (a Germany based woman who does freelance design work, through fiverr.com). He said, "She just probably grabbed these photos of flowers off the internet; she's clearly not a tattoo artist." Which couldn't have been further from the truth!

My husband and I came here on our last day of our trip with the hopes they accept walk-ins... And…read morethey do! We wanted to get fine line Star Wars themed tattoos -- we provided the image and they advised to make the image a little bigger so the lines won't look shriveled over time. We agreed with their recommendation and got to the table with not much of wait. Everyone was very inviting, the place itself looked really cool and eclectic. I immediately thought of coming back for a flash deal if we were ever in town again! Very clean, very sterile, and very friendly -- so why one less star?? Unfortunately both our fine line tattoos have faded by the end of the week. The pressure didn't feel deep enough for either of us and the line work is VERY light. We already want them touched up but since we're not from the area, we'd have to find another artist. BUT that shouldn't take away fully from the good experience! Maybe if we weren't leaving to the airport after this, we would've been able to speak up and say to go a smidge thicker. Or perhaps we should've visited in the beginning of our trip so we can return for touch ups at the end of our trip after the first couple of days of healing. Not sure. But still good vibes here!

First tattoo. Rachel was fantastic!…read moreI was told she had a light hand. I barely felt a thing with my three plus hour tattoo. So my detail better than expected. I would highly recommend this shop and especially Rachel. Thank you!

I had a half sleeve tattoo done by 848 Tattoo Studio. The quality and service was exemplary. Danny…read morehand drew the design completely from scratch and then transferred it to computer to create the stencil. The design is unique and distinctly mine. His initial measurements for the stencil were spot on and the design fits perfectly on my upper arm and chest. Danny was very intuitive in translating a my loose ideas for a piece to a practical design. He was methodical and careful in executing the actual tattoo work. It was well thought out. The result looks great and elicits compliments from people who see it. His work of a traditional Japanese tattoo (a dragon) was bold lines with artistically applied fill colors and shading. The design is clear, even from a distance. Danny is experienced in applying tattoos and well versed in Japanese lore, and will patiently explain the meanings of the various symbology used in traditional Japanese tattoos. 848 Tattoo was great about scheduling, letting me know well in advance of any schedule change (only once) and flexible for my schedule change (only once). The 848 Tattoo shop is impeccably clean, uses temporary needle sets, always provides new covers for the tattoo work furniture, and is well-lit. Very safe and hygienic. I would highly recommend 848 Tattoo Studio to anyone serious about getting a high quality, professional tattoo design--especially traditional Japanese designs, which are his specialty. Just looking at all the pictures and designs on the shop's walls made me want to get more done.

I knew I wanted a irezumi tattoo. So I went searching for someone that specialized in a style I…read moreliked. I found @848_studio on instagram and started communicating with Danny. Sending example pictures and ideas. I knew the elements I liked and wanted but didn't know how to bring them all together and what would work on my shoulder. He patiently listened to all my ideas and was able to string them together in an original design. I'm super stoked by the final result. If you're looking for a piece of art then take your time and go with someone that specializes in this style. He is devoted to this art form and developing his craft. It's rare to see someone so devoted to something, but he clearly loves the art and process. Communicate if there's something you exactly want, but also know that if you give Danny some space for his artistic ideas you won't be disappointed.
