I want to write a review and say that my experience with Aurora has been nothing but positive. I…read morewent in today to purchase some jewelry and have help putting it in, and Ella was absolutely wonderful. The space was extremely clean, I felt safe, comfortable, and not pressured to make any decision regarding purchases. Ella had a gentle hand, and was a pro at putting in jewelry, and I know that it would be the same when piercing! I definitely will be back. :)

We got matching 3E tattoos. The place was wheelchair accessible too, so that was nice. We had Zane tatt us. I was not part of the conversation between the studio and my gf and did not get a chance to look at his portfolio. She was paying for it, so I just went with the flow. He was nice, quick and swift. My tatt did not come out as purple as I wanted, so I'm not sure if color is his thing. Some people just have an eye for color. We got them behind the ear. And aside from not getting the color right, the tatt itself turned out great. And behind the ear didn't hurt for me at all and it was super fast. He struggled to tatt my gf who has spinal muscular atrophy. But considering he had never tatted someone like her before, he seemed to adjust ok. He seemed nervous so I wasn't sure how it would turn out. My tatt healed fine but by gf is definitely going to need a touch up. All considering it was a pretty good experience and apparently the owner gets booked up pretty fast. A girl was in there from FL. He runs killer specials on Black Friday too, so check them out.

Was on my way via Greyhound to visit family. Thinking about getting a U.P. themed tattoo for a…read morewhile, I went on google searching for another tattoo artist and shop. Deft popped up and I decided to email Joshua. After a few emails, I came in Tuesday to book for a Thursday slot; the only slot they had open. I came in first thing Tuesday to book my appointment, and ran into Nicky at the desk. She was very helpful, and told me that she had a client due in at 11am that wasn't showing. 5 more minutes she said, and I could have that slot. Well I guess I didn't need to book for that Thursday. She basically took me on the spot. We drew up some designs, and I have to say she not only gave me a tattoo better than I could have ever come up with, but did a really good job. I have a few tattoos, done by several Detroit artists, and have to say; her work ranks right up there. As for that Thursday appoint; I plan on coming back if they can book me. Also as a side note; give this girl a raise, or hire a receptionist. :; [UPDATE:] I did book that Thursday slot, and had another artist do the Star Trek ensign on my arm. Very good job. Will definitely come back here next time I'm in town.

Seems like he lost interest in my tattoo and doesn't care anymore. Five hours after my appointment was scheduled we finally started. Not very pleased with the work he did for the price that he charged. All around not a very good place to go and get your tattoo done. I would strongly recommend going anywhere else other than Eriks.

Michelle has been in my (and my family's) very small circle of tattoo artists for 20 years now…read more She's done an array of styles and colors. Many of her color pieces are still holding bold over a decade after they were done. We're very spoiled with great artists here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and Michelle Frederick is definitely one of them, and responsible for helping in the development of others. Every negative review of her professional work that I've seen has been nothing but entitled codswallop.
