Madeline C.

I made an appointment day of to get a tattoo and Tracey Bear helped me out. Tracey was amazing, she listened to exactly what I wanted and was patient with drawing the tattoo out beforehand. She did an excellent job and she was super kind. I would 10/10 recommend to anyone. This was my first tattoo and it hurt, but wasn't unbearable. Thanks Tracey!

Popped in for a walk in, looked through some flash, got three tattoos, and was out of there in like 2 and half hours. Incredibly happy with the new pieces we received and will absolutely be booking with Erin again

Ask the Community - Scrimshaw Tattoo

Do you have a shop minimum for small tattoos?

Yes, the shop Minimum is $60

How long would it take to do a photo realism tattoo in color around a medium size?

It depends on the subject matter and placement, but for something like the owl you sent over, I’d imagine between 2-4 hours.

What do they charge here? Is it hourly or by size and detail?

Hi there! All tattoos are priced by the hour, $150/per hour.

I returned to Millennium for the 3rd tattoo I've gotten here (a total of 4). Previously my other…read moretwo were done by Kayla who no longer lives in the state as far as I've heard. The one tattoo I have that wasn't done at Millennium was done elsewhere ONLY because I had it done with a friend while traveling for my 21st birthday a few years back -- and even then I'd tried to talk her into meeting me in Fort Collins beforehand to have it done here. I returned to Millennium for my newest tattoo to meet another artist because I've always felt confident that they do everything they can to take care of their customers. Today I got to work with Heide, who did not let me down!! Millennium continues to be the only place in FoCo I trust to do my tattoos. I'm sure there are other quality places in town as well but I don't currently ever see myself going anywhere but here. Heide was very thorough, professional, and engaging and answered any and all questions I had. She did multiple modifications to the art I provided just to make sure I had the best version of the image I wanted, and reapplied the stencil transfer multiple times (even spotting a transfer error i hadn't) to make sure it was 100% perfect before inking. She was awesome, and I hope I get the chance to work more with her in the future!! Thank you so much for the continued dedication to customer service and high quality art.

We had an amazing experience at Millennium. We are new to Fort Collins so needed to find a new…read moreartist and we looked around and really liked the work from Millennium. We went in for our consult and worked with Tim. Tim was very easy to work with, shared some thoughts and ideas to consider and helped us create the design and tattoos we were really excited about. Tim sent a final mockup the week before and we made some subtle changes. The morning of Tim met with us to discuss size, placements and final details. Again I really appreciated Tim sharing some ides, thoughts and best practices to ensure we had the best possible end result. In the end, we were VERY happy with our tattoos (my wife's first and my third). This is the best work I have had done to date in a clean, safe, friendly environment. Only negative part as that We celebrated our new tattoo day with the news that Ozzy past. Cheers - Strong recommendation for Millennium, Tim and Heidi. We will be back!

Magnetic is honestly a world-class tattoo shop. I have seen a lot of mediocre work from a lot of…read morelocal shops, but this is not one of them. All of the artists are very talented and really care about the work they do, no half-stepping over here. I received a beautiful semi-traditional moth tattoo from Makile (pronounced like ma-Kyle for when you call to request him) and could not have been happier with the experience. I emailed the shop with some pretty specific ideas about what I would like my tattoo to look like (I've learned to be picky - its on you forever!) and he was entirely accommodating. He incorporated all my ideas and was super nice about my request to re-size it several times to fit in nicely with other work I already have. He took his time laying out supplies and keeping everything super clean and tidy while he worked. When the time came to actually get stabbed with a needle several thousand times in a row, he worked quickly and efficiently, keeping suffering to a minimum. As for the tattoo itself - it turned out better than I had pictured. The lines are smooth and bold, the shading is dark, and the color pops. Beautiful attention to detail! I will also mention that the price was below what I expected to pay, but that was just a bonus. Makile is going to be my go-to guy from now on, 10/10 would absolutely recommend. The dude just knows what he is doing and does it well and with confidence. Zero complaints, and this is coming from a skilled complainer.

I stopped going to Magnetic when they refused to tattoo my hand. I get it, artists can absolutely…read morerefuse to do something. I wanted a bee the size of a quarter on my hand and assured them as a 45 yr old woman in the same industry for over 20 yrs, it was not a job killer but I was told it was shop policy - no hand tattoos. My ex husband took this as a challenge, went in a few days later in long sleeves so you couldn't even see if he had other tattoos and asked for a hand tattoo. He got a 4 in old school anchor on his hand - no questions asked. I guess it's just shop policy for women? Hard pass on Magnetic despite 6 tattoos i have from them.

My mom lives 5 hours away over the mountains, and I've been in training for the last 6 months so we…read morehave been unable to see each other. Last weekend she came over to help me with my surgery (ruptured my acl in training) and decided that she wanted a matching tattoo with me before the surgery. Needless to say, covid has really changed the way tattoo parlors/shops operate and a lot of them are booked out extensively. After searching on Google I stumbled across Small Mountain Tattoo. I called the shop and Toni was quick to answer. I was grateful for her enthusiasm and friendliness on the phone as well as her eagerness and excitement to help us set up an appointment that was very last minute. We had some technical difficulties with the photo I emailed her for reference but Toni was very patient and helpful. At one point she had to hand up to check with her artists and see what was available, she called me back promptly and was just as pleasant as before. She set us up with Adam who has an impressive portfolio. He didn't seem upset at the last minute appointment added to his day and drew up a great design that my mom loved! The tattoos were small enough he got them done quickly. But his line work was incredible and he even added in a little bit of shading which was beautiful! Overall our time at the shop was tremendous, they have incredible artists, amazing front desk staff and the studio is beautiful and clean. You should definitely check this place out for your next tattoo, I know I'll be back!

Me choosing to stop be fore more damage or errors were made. How would you even know that to try to justify That? Also 1 is appropriate so folks are aware this is how one of your employees treat a permanent procedure because his ego was bruised So yes I feel 1 is very important. I'm glad you took the opportunity to guide Kelson but what's done is done and I will nit return and I hope others will choose another one of your artists or none of them. But folks should know that it was great until I seen a mistake and then bro was rough like he was pissed I called him out on not being able to draw a straight line.
