    $100 for this "amazing" work.. that looks like I got it done at someone's garage.

    I already wrote a review on their website, With photos of my tattoo, But again... Thanks a lot for ruining a simple crescent moon... and thanks for wasting my money.. $100 down the drain... I HOPE, I HIGHLY HOPE NO ONE GETS ANYTHING HERE.

    My husband amd i went in a week ago. We both got tatoos. His doesn't even look like the picture and mine was very important to me because of loosing my dad. They both cane out horrible mine looks like ive had it for years. I wouldn't waist a penny n this place . They are nice people but dont know how to do tattoos. Mine started coming off 2nd day. It literally looks like my son drew it. HORRIBLE PLACE. DONT WAIST YOUR MONEY! ALSO I DIDN'T SEE HIM PUT A NEW NEEDLE IN SO IM NOT SURE IF HE USED AN OLD ONE. TOOK 2 HOURS ALMOST TO DRAW A SMALL PIC OF HEART WITH SOME DATES.

    Tattoo sketch and what was tattooed.

    This place isn't easy to spot and it's small but it's so worth it! Before coming in here, I only had one tattoo and the guy I had, Derek, quickly drew up a sketch of what I wanted, sat me down and got to work. Environment was clean, crew was friendly and really funny and easy-going. Would def recommend this place if you're looking for somewhere with an amazing vibe to get an amazing tattoo!!

    Everything went well. Matt is the BEST by far. I will go back to him when I am in the area.

    After my nipple piercing and changing my frenulum bar they refused to do any male genital piercing…read more My appointment was on May 2024

    I was told by the word of the tattoo artist I scheduled with (and gave a $100+ deposit to) that I…read morewould receive a mock-up of the idea I gave him prior to our appointment date set in approx. three weeks from consultation. They had my email and my Instagram to get it a mock up to. I received nothing, and when I got a call confirming my appointment, I brought this up. Still, I received nothing. I did not attend the appointment because I had not received what was promised. I explained this to the shop owner over the phone, and I quote "how old are you? You should know that it is your responsibility to show up for an appointment. This is the most bogus thing I have ever heard. It is not in our policy to provide a mock up, and because you are not here for your appointment, we would normally take your deposit and you would provide a new one. However, I will hold your deposit and you can reschedule if you would like." She hung up on me after I declined. I don't know about you, but I personally would not risk going to a tattoo shop after that interaction. I have been told in the past not to go to Jacksonville tattoo shops because they take advantage of Marines, and I believe this rings true. I've gotten tattoos in California, Arizona and Wilmington, and not one shop has required a deposit to make an appointment. However, two shops in Jacksonville I've been to (ATS and Forbidden) have required this. I've paid both and been tattoo'd by neither because I've been stunned by their treatment of clients and expectations both.
