Last day in Maine and my friend and I lucked out !…read more Walked in close to closing and wasn't expecting to actually getting a tattoo. The owner had just finished with a client but didn't send us away. Angelina was able to see me and did a fantastic job! She worked with my indecisive self ... hahaha Both got small tattoos and both came out amazing! If I'm ever in Maine again, I'll definitely visit the shop again!

Well....this place is alright. As far as tattoo shops in central Maine go. Everyone was nice. I…read morehave had my nose pierced before but removed it (for my job at the time). I recently decided I wanted to have it pierced again. I called the shop ahead of time to ask how much piercings were and was told "$50 including the jewelry". I get to the shop, sign some forms and was again told "$50. Look around at these cases *motions to cases* they are our nose piercings". I waited for about an hour before their piercer could get to me (yes they were quite busy). I showed him the one I wanted (as I spent basically an entire hour looking). I then again asked how much that piercing was, he said "$70". I thought, cool, a little more expensive than $50 but I got a neat little 14K gold nose ring. No biggie. Before I sit in the chair, the receptionist calls me up to pay and my total was $130 dollars! I have the money, I can pay that's no problem. But what I had an issue with was feeling like information was purposefully withheld in order to make a higher sale. Not only is this dishonest, but left a bad taste in my mouth. The same jewelry I purchased in the shop, isn't even worth $70 online! Yeah, I could've said no. But I had already been waiting for so long AND the place was so packed..I got nervous saying no and going back to the drawing table. Pic for reference of what I got. If you're going there....just beware of this practice. Or just go somewhere else all together.

Chris Flynn is extremely talented, professional and personable. I got this Egyptian Thoth tattoo…read morethis week from him. (Pictured) I highly recommend this place, and for the one star review I noticed on here - the fact that he was willing to rectify an unfavorable tattoo that an apprentice did without his knowledge, for FREE, seems like a reasonable response to me. And just to be clear, I did not know Chris at all before I came in for this, just thoroughly impressed with the entire experience.

The piercer works only on Saturdays but he works hard to make sure everything goes smoothly and…read morethat your experience is truly unique. I got both of my tragus pierced today but after the first one, I got very light headed and nauseous. We took a break and he made sure I had plenty of water and gummy lobsters to get my blood sugar back up. He explained to me exactly what was going on with my body and why I felt that way which in itself made me feel 10 times better. He didn't continue with the other ear until he knew for sure the unused adrenaline my body had produced and left over had passed. All the while people gathered at the door--but he didn't mind. He took his time, finished both ears, and made sure that I had enough time to recover. He showed me all the equipment he was using and took them straight out of the bag which was clearly labeled 'STERILIZED'. He's very skilled with the whole 'bedside manners' thing and will make you feel very prioritized and well-looked after. My procedure took 30 minutes (only because I was being such a big baby), but he is very quick and took care of the people before me within 15-20. Wait time isn't that bad if you get in early afternoon. But even if you do have to wait, it's totally worth it. No other piercing/tattoo place IMO is as educated, professional, and kind as this place or this man specifically. Totally worth the 40 minute drive :)

I have been going to Fianna studio for years now and still continue to be amazed and impressed by…read moreJames' work. My family has been going here for all of their tattoos as well. He is a Fantastic tattoo artist, and artist in general. I love how he takes the time to discuss what you really are looking for in your tattoo. He then takes all that information and draws out the perfect custom tattoo that you will absolutely love, and then tattoos it on you with such precision and accuracy that it will really blow you away. His lines are so clean, and water shading is pretty damn perfect. He is very focused on his work and will not let you leave with a tattoo that he/you won't like. The new studio is also beautiful, it's located in the old firehouse building that has almost completely been restored. The studio has two large windows that actually used to be the garage doors to the fire truck bays. They let in a lot of natural light and give you something to look at while you're being tattooed. The studio is also filled with a lot of really interesting art, mostly paintings, and always has good music playing. It's really a relaxing and creative environment. The shop is also very clean, and James is very good about making sure things are sanitized. I have almost two full sleeves completely done by him, and definitely plan on getting more until I don't have any more room left on me! I have gotten to the point where I give him a simple idea and then let him create whatever he would like. If you are looking for a beautifully done custom tattoo, I highly recommend this studio.

He creates something out of the pile of ideas I send him and never disappoints. He curates a welcoming and relaxing environment and doesn't fail to keep his hand relatively light and the experience short. It's all your own preference, but I never feel as though I am alone through the process, he has the ability to make conversation with a wall or just be the wall. I have first-hand seen him interact with unexpected costumers and been touched by how he can kindly answer questions that might seem obvious to others. I can't wait to work with him again. I just got a tattoo done today, but have added a picture of a memorial tattoo that he did for me a couple years back.
