We finally settled on what we were getting, and he did some great work, and was very friendly to chat with while getting it done! The shop was clean and inviting, and overall the experience was as comfortable as it could be! The artist says he does a lot of Scottish-themed tattoos for tourists (not pictured- we also got Loch Ness monsters lol) and he was very friendly about it (didn't make us feel like dumb tourists ) so I would suggest swinging in if you're traveling and looking for tattoo to symbolize your trip! They do accept walk ins as well!

Being very skilled in all aspects from the actual procedure to the background of the art being permanently etched onto your skin. A wonderfully unique place that if you've got the balls to get sometime truly beautiful done this is the place for you! Located in the middle of town it's not hard to find but perhaps a little bit difficult to park outside of. If you've got an appointment then all good but you can just walk of the street, not that you should do something that whimsical.

Had my first tattoo with Charlotte on Tuesday and I feel it probably won't be my last with her…read more She is absolutely lovely and immediately put me at ease when I met her for my consultation. You would think with six tattoos under my belt I'd be fine rolling into any tattoo shop but I still find some quite intimidating. I found out about this shop and Charlotte through a friend who is currently getting a big piece done and was very impressed with her work. I've see too many bad tattoos in this city and it's made me very wary about picking tattoo shops. Charlotte only does custom work and is open by appointment only. Still waiting for my tattoo to heal completely but absolutely love it and would highly recommend Charlotte if you're looking to get inked!

She is really good and will design your tattoo on the computer or you can pick tattoos from the computer or take your own design in for her. I am currently going to get a tattoo from her and she took photos of my old tattoo and designed another around my one I already have which I thought was really good as it gave me an idea of what it was going to look like. She also does tattoo removal. I know someone who has had this done and it works really well. She also does tattoo cover ups. Amazing tattooist who really knows what she is talking about and will offer great advice on what you want. She does hair extensions, acrylic nails and body piercings. These are all at amazing prices.

My guy said where he was getting his tattoo done was quite chilly as well, but they had space heaters around to help keep him warm.
