What kind of owner tells a paying client not to come back for any future tatts after I went in and…read moretried to make contact with the tattoo artist who did 3 tatts over the course of 3 months? What the owner has failed to realize is how much he's hurting the artist who did my tatts. The artwork he's done on me makes me a walking advertisement and now his fame will never be known to those who ask me where and whom I went to. The owner just ruined the reputation of his own artist more than he did his shop. The artist I saw is pretty decent but his response time to my messages has been none to non-existent which is why I went into the shop in the first place since he never answered me back after 3 weeks. I'm expecting the owner to reply to my review with a not-so-nice comment but I don't really care. This review is about the shop, not so much the artist, but, again I will not recommend either to anyone who asks me.

My son begged me not to call this shop, and so I resisted, with great restraint. He was referred…read moreto this shop, to Doc specifically, by a co-worker. Eager to get started on his new ink, he sent Doc (Eric Dougherty) a photo of the tattoo he had his heart set on, received an e-mail response back regarding the deposit amount which he immediately sent, and an appointment time. He waited for three weeks, anxiously counting down the days (not kidding). He drove an hour from home, arriving early as he was so excited. He was then told "No, I'm sorry...I can't draw this on you". My son then tries to accomodate Doc by changing the design to his specifications, asking what he wanted changed, what could he do to get it done? He was blown off moments later, handed back his money, and told "no, can't do it". NO MATTER WHAT my son tried to do to make it workable for the artist involved. WHY request a photo beforehand if you aren't going to take a look at it? If you aren't going to suggest changes PRIOR TO having your potential clients drive two hours for nothing? What's the point then? I'm not going to lie, I was not too happy about the idea of the tattoo in the first place, BUT when I saw how depressed this made my son? I set about finding him somewhere else to go. I could not bear to see him that upset, and after all, it is his body. SHAME on you for operating this way. Talk about poor business tactics. I am sure you do amazing work, but your method of operation this time? Unacceptable.
