    Randy did a great job on my a portrait of my Grandfather on my forearm…read more This is the only place I get tattoos now.

    Update First: Honestly, Randy might be a good artist. Randy might take care of you. I'm not sure…read more But that was not the experience I had, nor do I believe that this shop has acceptable conduct. Since my horrible experience, it has come to my attention that my experience is not singular. The routine appears to be; Chris, without a care in the world mutilates you, you contact Randy for help, they tell you "come on in, Randy will fix it right up." To get more patronage out of you. Keep in mind, Chris has not been tattooing for a single year or something. Also keep in mind, I'm not able to simply have it "fixed up" right away, because it was done so deep and so poorly that four months later it is STILL not healed enough to be worked on. The rest of it is so unshaded and light that it's fallen out and is just a skin tinted gray. There's bumps constantly growing in the skin that don't go away for a long time, I could go on and on and on. This is embarrassing and ridiculous, I've got no other words to describe it. If you think that this is acceptable conduct, this is the place for you. Not to mention the rates, 130 an hour for a person to replicate like a blindfolded toddler trying to shade in-between lines as fast as humanly possible. If you like angry guys pretending you don't exist while they take their frustrations out on your skin, permanently, this is the place for you. Either way, this is a gamble, there's far less scary options than flipping a coin here. I grow hopeful that someone I trust can cover this up for me eventually however, and hopefully it'll be a nice piece and this is all a story I tell in the future, and I will be telling thing story. Stay safe, do your research on shops, most importantly don't let someone who looks pissed and won't talk to you bring a needle to your skin. Picture doesn't do it justice just how bad it is. Original Review: Genuinely 0 communication about anything, not about the tattoo, aftercare etc but also about placement, shading, literally spoke about four words to me. Paid for an hour got about 30 minutes for a very rushed tattoo that's got no shading at all in some spots and is way too deep in others. Shading literally seriously entirely outside of the lines. Literally been told it looks like it was not done in a shop. Also had our double appointment moved last minute, artist was impossible to reach and probably just wanted to spit the tattoos out and leave rather than actually craft art. First time experience so it felt impossible to recognize the problems and red flags.

    I went to their Waite Park location. I was told that they legally have to sell me aftercare…read moreproducts even though I told them I already have products, yet per the mn.gov site regarding state body art laws including piercings, the following is all that is mentioned for aftercare and proves that claim untrue. "Subd.5. Aftercare. A technician shall provide each client with verbal and written instructions for the care of the tattooed or pierced site upon the completion of the procedure. The written instructions must advise the client of the difference between normal skin or tissue irritation and infection and to consult a health care professional upon indication of infection of the skin or tissue." Other than that issue and being charged separately for earring backs, the attendants were very friendly and helpful and my piercer Iris did a fantastic job. She was very professional and I'm highly satisfied with my rook and mid helix piercings.

    LOVE the ladies who work here. I had my lobe stack, rook and conch done here over the last few…read moremonths and wouldn't go anywhere else. They were patient and informative as I chose which piercings and jewelry I wanted. The piercer was informative and told me each step as she pierced, she answered every question I had. I would recommend to anyone looking to update your ear-scape!

    As a facility I've heard great things about many artists, environment is cool to see. My experience…read morewith Jacob Weber wasn't ideal. He was hard to work with and exhibited very little patience. On two separate dates he didn't even remember his appointments with me for consultation and the actual tattoo appointment. During consultation he cared very little about my opinions and even added insult. He complained through all of my comments and about the tattoo itself even though he had all the information, he could've easily not done the tattoo. When I set up an appointment for a touch up based on his timeline the doors were locked and no one picked up the phone during regular hours. It seems like he only did my tattoo so he could nail my buddies larger piece as this was something we did together for his first tattoo. Personality aside, his character as a person needs work.

    I've gotten two tattoos from this place. Both times were very pleasant and I enjoyed being there…read more It looks very cool on the end side and the art gallery is very neat. I've given it three stars because post tattoo experience has been poor and let me explain. My last tattoo was on my hand and a lot of ink came off during the healing part. I know this can happen and I was aware of it before hand. I was in contact with the artist and they said they could touch it up at no cost. But when it came time to schedule that appointment they ghosted me over 3 or 4 emails. Since this has gone on for over 6 months I'm forced to look for a different tattoo company. Or see if one of the other artist at cream city is more professional then this guy. I hope next time its better.
