I found the artist Boris Gustav here, he does really good work in the style of trash polka. It was all going well, met with him, he was super nice and polite and talked about what I wanted and my price range. Once he got a good idea of what I wanted, we set an estimated date to get started. He said he would have an update with a sketch/design within a week and we could work from there. So far so good. A week goes by and he said he got busy and didn't get to my design, I was ok with that as long as he kept me updated. Then another week goes buy and it's the day before our appointment to start the tattoo, he messages me saying he's sick and didn't get anything done on my tattoo. Frustrating, but understandable because of the pandemic and it being flu season, I just wanted to be kept in the loop. A few weeks pass and I sent messages looking for an update on the design or when he thought we could get me into the appointment book, no reply to anything. I sent a few more messages just trying to get his attention, maybe he had a lot of messages to catch up on from being sick, but as I follow his Facebook, he's back tattooing and feeling better and is filling open times from cancellations, looking for new clients. I figured I would try once more to get his attention and see if he's even interested in doing my tattoo, and still no response.
I absolutely do not recommend going here or going to see him for a tattoo as there's a very good chance you won't even get a tattoo. read more
