With a broken heart for over three years and three months, I needed to secure an artist with whom I could be at ease mentally and compliment my energy. I believe tattoos should never be a fly-by-night act. I came across Rachel's page several weeks before deciding to contact her. From the first text until my appointment, she responded promptly and answered all my questions. My tattoo needed to be like I envisioned. Please do not quote me, but I believe Rachel's page indicates that she will reveal her version once you submit your ideas at the appointment. I said oh my goodness, don't bother her before then...., I'm that way sometimes! I was on my third artist/deposit. The other two artists were not checking all the boxes for me, and I needed feel completely comfortable with the process from beginning to completion. Upon arrival, Rachel politely described what she created for me before the reveal, I'm nervous....The artwork was beautiful and aligned with who she is as an artist, but after sharing more of my son's life during the appointment. I believed and felt she understood what my tattoo needed to be; our energy matched, and we went with my idea with a twist! Rachel told me the black armband is not her favorite ! The energy was on point and we worked out an amazing priceless armband infused with some my son's cremation ashes! My son, JOURDAN will ALWAYS be PRESENT, and Rachel is now a part of this never ending Journey with us! read more
