I recently completed a sleeve on my left arm with Mark. It's a very detailed double koi and…read morechrysanthemum piece. Mark, the owner, is extremely knowledgable about every aspect of tattooing and how to put together a great tattoo that fits your body perfectly. I started this process several months ago, and Mark's skills and input have been very valuable throughout the last few months. Each session is very intentional and speaks to his 32+ years of experience. Fast, but precise and efficient. The shop is surgically clean. They take tattoo hygiene and sanitation extremely seriously, which made me much more comfortable throughout the several sessions needed to complete my sleeve. One of the only shops to use an autoclave for extra sterilization. Living Canvas surpassed my expectations and is miles ahead of any competitors. This sleeve turned out better than I expected. I am a customer for life!

This spot came highly recommended from friends but mostly my trusted niece. She came here to get her eyebrow piercing and raved about their services. With several locations, we preferred the Tempe location. Super easy to schedule an appointment online and quick forms to complete before your appointment. I opted to get my nose pierced and potentially two more ear piercings. The selection of jewelry varies from affordable to really high end solid gold. The receptionist was so knowledgeable and wonderful at making suggestions for my choices. Love her style and she was spot on in matching my vibe. I loved being able to mix my metals of gold, silver and rose gold. For me, I wanted higher quality and fashionable pieces so my total was over $700 with the piercings and jewelry. They also had MDW sale discount of 20% but that eventually went as my tip to my piercer Josh. He is super cool and very thorough. Made me feel comfortable and laughing. My niece had Aubrilynn and loved her. As for the piercing, it is not painful at all. If you can take waxing or plucking, it's easy peasy! There is a little soreness on my left ear but it went away after treating myself to Taiwanese pancakes and jelly tea. You should purchase the saline solution to keep your piercings clean. Accessories are the exclamation point to your outfit. So if you're up for it, get pierced here with any of their incredible staff. To me, overdressed is a myth invented by those who have never been fabulous.

His station - like the rest of the shop - was VERY clean. Like spotless. Sebastian was chatty, which is great, learned he is a great guy and husband and has ten snakes; lucky!
