When I was 23, I met the owner, Michael Cox, as my sister was repiercing her belly button. He made…read morea prediction, stating that I'd be back. Odd to say. The very next weekend, I was in, getting my first tattoo, who had been done by Lisa Harrison, who also worked at the old shop. It's been nearly 17 years and, with the exception of 3 of my tattoos, the other 24 had been done in Mikey's shop. He's always friendly, courteous, and kind. Always willing to strike up a conversation while the electric needle is going, and he's been very reasonable for as long as I've known him. A great artist and an even better friend. Once he inks you, you're family. Highly recommended, always clean, sterilize the hell out of everything. If you go on a Saturday, call first to check his availability. If possible, go during the week.

Based on favorable reviews, I went to Main Line Tattooing to get my earlobes pierced, first…read morepiercings, most basic type, I would think. I told Mike exactly where I wanted the holes; he made marks and showed me for my OK. One he hit and the other he missed, although not by a lot. Worse still, the holes are at an angle. The hole exits the back of my earlobe lower than where it is in front, so you can see the backings of all studs, and you can tell that the studs are at a 45 degree angle. The place is sanitary, and he is easy to talk to, but won't be going back, have to see someone else about new holes that look right.

He really went out of his way to help me feel confident about what I'd decided on. I had a pretty specific reference and he absolutely nailed it. I couldn't be happier with how it came out. I'm even healing great on top of it all. I can't say enough good things about my experience at Grace. Really cool shop with great staff. I highly recommend it for rookies and experienced clients. I definitely will be coming back.

After two day it started to split I told her and she said that they didn't have the regular piercing size only the small ones. Mmmm I asked why did you do it if you didn't have the right stuff. Regardless I pay $60. Had to wait months for it to heal then went back for my piercing again. Do you know that even though they knew that they was on the wrong they made me pay another $60 for the piercing again. After three days that piercing fell out yes the whole thing. Now it's been three months and still waiting for my piercing that cost me $120 and they not giving me any money back. I went to Florida on vacation and got it done there. Mmmm

Kiel tattooed my rib piece at a convention about 11 years ago. The colors stayed brilliant through…read morea pregnancy and over a decade of life, and the linework is still crisp and clean. It has remained one of my favorite pieces of art all these years later. So when I finally decided I was ready for my chef tattoo, he was the artist I wanted. I was thrilled when he responded to my inquiry with genuine enthusiasm. I could not be more pleased with what we created together. The theme was food plants--but not the food itself--so the piece includes tomato plants, rosemary, chamomile, basil, nasturtium, and some of the critters that live around them. The whole sleeve flows beautifully with the anatomy of my arm in a way that still kind of blows my mind. Later, I asked Kiel to create a memorial tattoo for my father and uncle. With just a few prompts, he designed a vibrant and deeply personal tribute to two of the best men I've ever known. Everything has healed beautifully. Kiel is also wonderful to sit with through long sessions. We end up talking about books, movies, video games, parenting, and the general chaos of trying to be adults in a strange world. The conversation makes the hours easier, and meaningful. He's a genuinely kind human being and an incredibly talented artist. His understanding of anatomy, movement, and color theory makes his work feel alive on the body. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone looking for something distinctive and personal, especially if you're willing to trust a gifted artist to collaborate with you creatively. 10/10. No notes.

He was super personable, helped my son relax and made sure he was getting what he wanted. I went back 2 weeks later for a small tattoo for myself and then within months, was collaborating with Mike on a half sleeve incorporate a cover-up. I gave Mike reference photos of the 2 dragons I wanted, some high-level ideas and a deposit and he turned that into a beautiful piece. We had sessions every two weeks for 3 months and I can confidently say he is consistently friendly, chill, cares about his clients' comfort, has little ego and really wants people to love their ink. Following his advice was never a mistake, he's an artist you can trust. I'm already planning my next big piece. Beyond Mike, the shop itself is great. All of the staff is welcoming and willing to work with you to make sure you get. It's clean and has a good vibe all around.

I am so happy we called Neckboneink We walked in 15 minutes after getting off the phone and Mike was willing to accommodate and work with us which was a blessing during these COVID times. He listened to us and offer his professional opinion in a respectful manner. We spent 30-40 minutes on the design as simple as it was, customizing it for each of us to make sure all three of us where happy and the details were perfect. The tattoo process was smooth and comfortable thanks to Mike being down to earth and so easy to talk to. Before I knew it my tattoo was done. He answered all my questions and shared with me his love for tattooing and how the industry/ tattoo process have changed over the years and the new tattoo advancements he's implemented himself like his tattoo machine and the derm shield which he uses for his clients. He sent us home with after care instructions, tattoo goo and tattoo lotion. The derm shield was heaven sent and made the healing process seamless and fast compared to my other tattoos which didn't have the derm shield on it. All I had to do in terms of after care was leave the derm shield on for 5 days and after that just moisturize. My tattoo didn't scab and healed beautifully and fast. The parlor itself was impeccable and spotless. You could tell that Mike put his heart and soul into the shop. The shop was decorated beautifully with Mikes artwork from framed pieces, to canvases and a giant tv showing a slide show of his tattoo work. Even the curtains separating tattoo stations were customized with his art on them. Definitely the nicest shop I've been to and I've been to several. Overall I cannot recommend Mike and Neckboneink enough. I will not be going anywhere else for future tattoos. Such an incredible experience from start to finish. Thank you Mike!!
