    This was my first experience getting a tattoo and I cannot say enough good things about Wryly Fable! I came to her with an idea and she really helped me to evolve it into an amazing design. She was super attentive throughout the session (I have a needle aversion) and I would recommend her to anyone looking for amazing line work and botanicals!

    Lorenzo finished my tattoo in record time and did a great job

    Really nice people, very welcoming community. Super cool interior, pricey but worth it. The tattoo I got looks fantastic.

    This tattoo came out better than I envisioned it. Dazhi was really patient with me when we were testing out different placements on my arm. Gave valuable feedback on what would look best when I asked for an honest opinion. I'm glad I asked because I would've regretted my original choice so much, now that I see how this came out. The whole session was roughly 3-3.5 hours with a quick break in the middle. Dazhi was so thorough and kept checking every little detail to ensure it matched the scene that I provided. I felt like this was NOT rushed at all. The amount of thought and care that went into this piece made it worth it the 2 hour round trip to the shop. Aside from Dazhi being professional and friendly, the shop's aesthetic was so pleasing. It was clean, spacious, and had a ton of cool decor. Plenty of parking even on a Saturday. Another artist was also there doing a session with their own client but was friendly and welcoming as well. I definitely recommend any anime/manga lovers (or anyone who wants quality tattoo with fine lines done) to check out @dazhi_tatt on Instagram and book with him. My very strict, frugal, and conservative Vietnamese mom compliments the tattoo every time she sees it, so that says a lot because she rarely expresses that she likes something.

    APPOINTMENT ONLY What an incredible shop! I had the pleasure of working with Wryly on a new tattoo I had been planning for years. Wryly worked with me on design, ensuring we were both pleased with the progress before we began tattooing. Everyone at the shop was incredibly kind and made me feel welcome and at home as I arrived early for my appointment. The shop has great aesthetics and a really chill vibe going for it. I felt comfortable and at ease during my entire 7 hours at the shop. Wryly is incredibly talented and their line work is out of this world. I would recommend anyone visit here and make an appointment for their next piece! I will be back in June to finish the tattoo Wryly and I started.

    Great atmosphere and artists here. I'm relatively new to getting tattoos and have seen both Alper and Dylan now for two different pieces. I really liked the process and the work done here is of really high quality. I've seen the work from the other artists here as well and would feel comfortable going to any of them and knowing I'm going to get something I'll really like. Unique styles and feels like they've got something for everyone

    The shop: I'm so glad I found this tattoo shop! What attracted me was the perfect 5 stars overall review, and then visited the shop, and it's a beautiful hidden gem! The shop is modern, crisp clean, has good natural lighting, and so many beautiful real plants. It does not feel like your typical tattoo shop. I felt so zen and relaxed there. The artist: I worked with Simon Chisum and he's such a great tattoo artist - patient as I asked all the many questions as it was my first tattoo; collaborative as we worked on creating the right stencil of my idea; and overall kind and provided a great customer experience that it made me feel comfortable and excited about my experience. The experience: Overall the tattoo didn't hurt and it was such a calm experience, There were a few moments where I felt so relaxed I was ready to fall asleep. Simon has a very gentle technique that I didn't feel pain at all; even when he would wipe the tattoo it didn't feel like too much pressure or uncomfortable. And the best part is the line work on the tattoo is perfect! Couldn't it have asked for an overall better experience. Thank you Simon! Tattoo: combination of my own writing and Simon edited it to make the letter the same thickness and have it flow. So overall, if you've made it this far, go check out Ritual Tattoo! You won't regret it and there's a reason their rating is a 5.0!!

    I celebrated my bday with a couple of girlfriends as pre-scheduled walk-ins. You can tell the pride taken on the aesthetic and care of their studio. I love the vibe. So many things to call out! Lorenzo was at our service. He did an amazing job on our tattoos! It has been 20+ years since my last (first) tattoo and I plan to come back to add on to the baroque picture frame Lorenzo spent time on with all the details.

    Matching mother-daughter tattoos!

    I found Ally on Instagram and booked an appointment for a coverup tattoo about a month in advance…read more I sent her a picture of my original tattoo and the reference I had drawn to be the coverup. Days leading up to it, I was still very worried because I hadn't seen her sketch yet. The day beforehand, she sent me her sketch and I adjusted it to my liking. The next day was my appointment and I had to call her since the building was kind of hard to find. The studio was very clean and professional. I had never had a professional studio tattoo prior to this visit and I was a little worried about the pain especially because of the stipple shading. Ally had a super light hand and the outline was completely fine, and after the pain spray it was basically numb. Another concern was the healing process and I did notice little black flakes coming off and I was a little worried. After a couple weeks, fully healed, the tattoo looks as good as it was when it was freshly done. The session took less than two hours and I think the price was reasonable. Definitely appreciate Ally being my first studio tattoo experience! Thanks again :-)

    Arie was amazing to work with!…read more I reached out to her via email for a custom design and everything went really smoothly. I sent her lots of reference images and the tattoo she created was exactly what I wanted. Her communication was consistent and she got back to me quickly whenever I had questions. I wanted a fine line design with some ornamental touches and I'm so happy with my result. The studio is very welcoming, clean and comfortable. My tattoo was pretty large for my first one, but I felt fine the entire time and Arie checked on me consistently. Applying the stencil took time, but I'm grateful for that because the placement was exactly what I wanted. We ended up going bigger day of and seeing the piece on my body with a stencil was super helpful in getting it right. I really appreciated Arie's calm demeanor & attention to detail! I get so many compliments on my tattoo, and I'm already planning to come back for more. The healing process was a breeze and my skin was never irritated, even immediately after my tattoo was completed. Highly recommend working with Arie and visiting O Tattoo if you're looking for a beautiful piece, that's done by a qualified, artistic professional.

Sean was referred to me by my sister since our two other friends have gone to him for their tattoos, so I already felt comfortable going to him. Made an appointment through email, sent different pictures of what I wanted, and he was easy to communicate with. When I arrived, he was friendly and accommodating with all the little changes I wanted on the stencils. He made good conversation throughout the entire process, which distracted me from the light pain from the tattoos. For both arms, he said it was a minimum of $80! Such a good price for two tats so I decided to tip him graciously. Highly recommend this place if you want your first tattoo experience to be comfortable.

Sean made the whole process so comfortable and talking with him was like talking to an old friend. He is such a great guy and talented artist. I will be returning and recommending Sean and FTW to everyone!
