My friend and I stopped in to get tattoos to commemorate our road trip. We called ahead, texted…read morereference images, and they were ready to get started on both of us as soon as we got there. I got two small pieces by Sneaky. He was very kind, made sure we got water, and helped me feel very comfortable. My friend got a medium sized piece by Matt. He did an incredible job and constantly checked to make sure she was doing okay and had chances to stretch; she said it's the best one she's ever gotten and it's her new favorite tat. Very clean, professional, and sleek building. HIGHLY recommend Matt for color work. He had incredible drawings on the walls of his booth. I don't have enough words to express how amazing this business is but we like in OK and will be making the ten hour drive back for them.

I can't knock the tattoo I got, but the experience was horrible, unprofessional, and slightly…read morefrightening. We had a group of 4 and the appointment was made almost a week in advance. We didn't get started on the first tattoo until several hours after the scheduled time because the artist and the owner were preoccupied with personal drama. Before the start of the second tattoo, the artist and the owner got in a screaming match and the owner threw the artist out for the day. The word "faggot" was used several times by the artist, and as a group of openly gay patrons, we did not appreciate this lack of consideration. We had to leave the shop due to the fight between the owner and the artist and the rest of my group did not get their tattoos after giving up many hours of their day. We have had no apologies/offers from the owner since. The artist was shifty, moody and very unprofessional in the way he conducted business with our group and even tried starting "drama" between our friends, it was very bizarre. I got a small tattoo and he did a great job and it healed very well. I am happy with the end result so I guess that is all that matters, however, I will not be returning or recommending this place to anybody.

I went in for a simple line work tattoo on my upper arm. I thought i was getting one of the actual…read moretattoo artists but instead i got the apprentice. (no, i am not upset at the apprentice they handled the situation very well but they also were watching a movie on the TV that they have while doing my tattoo...) an hour goes by and my tattoo is finished, it got wrapped up they took pictures and off i went. I got home and my tattoo was missing a nose, minor piece just a dot but still it makes a difference. I went back later that day and they said they could fix it the next. FASFORWARD THE NEXT DAY... i walk into the shop the apprentice is sick so now the actual tattoo artist has to fix it. Great. They did not have the picture of my tattoo up they just put whatever they felt looked right and when they asked if there was anything else that was missed they asked in such a rude way like they were being inconvenienced by fixing my tattoo that THEYRE apprentice messed up... i'm not going back there nor letting anyone close to me go to this tattoo business. i'm sorry this was so long.
