I can't say enough good things about my tattoo artist Gilbert, his work is amazing I don't know how…read morehe managed to fix my tattoo. I went to several other shops and I was told I needed a cover up but Gilbert's fantastic skill saved my portrait tattoo. I drove 3 hours for my appointment and it was well worth it, it's been a month and Gilbert has continued to check up on my healing progress. Great service and quality work, will definitely return.

I figured the circumstances make it okay to add an update on my review for DHTC. As I said, I was…read morevery happy to have made the trip to Gilbert, AZ from Dallas, TX. My update isn't adding much other than I still highly recommend this shop. James Withee the owner, is very good at what he does. If you're lucky enough to book with him, I certainly say from getting tattooed by him that James will do the absolute best he can to give you a tattoo you can be happy with. Even if you have a hard time sitting still like I did. Here is a healed shot of the tattoo James did on me back in May. All I can say is "Thank you".

Black Lotus has been my go-to shop for several years now. I have never had such a good experience…read moreat a tattoo shop or met such talented artists and it's kept me coming back again and again. My first tattoo here was my fleabag tattoo (pictured - my left inner forearm) and I worked with David. He was so nice and talented, he did amazing. I gave him a hodgepodge of ideas to work from and told him the things I *had* to have in the piece - he incorporated everything j wanted and fleshed out the design in such a way I never even imagined. I'm so in love with it to this day (I got it a few years ago). My next tattoo was also with David - I got my ghostie in a field (also pictured). This was a scar coverup. This one I kinda let David do whatever he came up with. He gave me some options on the vibe I wanted and once he had a general idea, he came up with something *amazing*. Seriously, I get so many compliments on this. After my ghostie, David left the shop (and moved very far from me lol) so I decided to work with a different artist - Jarom. This was a total like, kismet situation. I walked into the shop after knowing David left, and asked who would be best to do some lettering on my wrists (pictured) and Jarom was suggested. He was super super nice. Such a stellar vibe. He made sure the font was what I wanted (and double checked the spelling lol) and I got in with him THAT DAY. Like... Within 30 minutes of walking in, I was sat in his chair. That day, I put another deposit down with him for another piece coming up lol My most recent piece here was with Aarin. He did my heart and dagger (pictured). This was another kismet thing. I walked in to go over ideas with Jarom for my next piece and saw this design on the flash design wall. I immediately fell in love. So I asked if I could get that done and when. Aarin came out and we talked for a minute, and again within about 30 minutes I was getting this done. Aarin was a gem to work with. I seriously recommend coming here and getting work done. Each artist has an Instagram and if you find someone you dig, 9 times out of 10 they'll take time out of their day to meet with you.

I've been kicking around getting another tattoo that meant a lot to me during my addiction recovery…read moreback in the day. A week ago I woke up and decided it was time and came back to Ink Bomb. I didn't have an appointment, but as luck would have it, they had an open slot and I took it. My artist was also the owner, Tabitha who did an amazing job! It was great reminiscing about the early alternative bands we saw live from back in the late 80's and early 90's! The shop is amazing and clean, everyone I've met there on staff get 5 stars. On a scale of 1 to 10, my next tattoo will be created at Ink Bomb!

I requested a tattoo of Jack and Sally's faces and Alec came back with this gorgeous tattoo. I can't personally speak for everyone but Alec here does great work. He kept everything calm and relaxing, did great work, and kept up nice conversation while he worked. I would recommend anyone stop here for their next tattoo, especially if they can get in with Alec. I wouldn't be surprised that if my next visit to Phoenix includes a stop here
