Especially having some cover up work being done as well! Cant wait to get the rest done. The whole experience was hands down the best I've had and I've been to a lot of shops!

Lovely! I have been going to this shop for years and it is always such a warm and welcoming…read moreenvironment. Each time I come in I am greeted by whoever is working the counter that day, and am invited to look at the artists' (Ben) sketch to see if anything needs to be changed before placement. The shop itself is an open concept, which allows for wonderful communication and between all artists and clients, which I find helps pass the time and makes me feel very comfortable! The vibes are always positive in this shop and I never feel awkward or uncomfortable. Also- every artist has a different tattooing style, so the shop really does well with covering all different types of ink. It should be noted, though, that as artists they have the right to not tattoo you. This may happen if 1) the concept you bring them doesn't match their style, 2) if they are very busy (usually oxbow will suggest a different shop/artist which is very considerate of them, and 3) if you're a rude customer. This stands for every tattoo shop, not just oxbow, as well as literally any business under the sun. Perhaps a previous reviewer should realize that being rude to an artist/shop that you want to do work on you is not the best method to get what you want full tea and shade. To conclude- Oxbow has some of the friendliest and most creative staff I have ever met for a tattoo shop, and you should definitely book an appointment here! Parking can be rough but you'll find a spot.

Wow, I love Bang Bang Body Arts, and I love my new tattoo! I only got my tattoo yesterday, so I…read morecan't speak yet to the longevity of the tattoo, but it looks better than I could have even hoped for. It's perfect. Hector took a special concept and turned it into life for me. At my request, he gave me a heads up when he changed steps during the process, which eased my mind. Hector was the absolutely the right person to do my lightly colored, watercolor style tattoo. Store owner or manager (not sure but I think owner) Tiffany is great! She listened to me while I told her the story of my tattoo concept, and she came to check on me during the tattoo process, asking if I needed anything. A store employee also came to check on me and asked the same. I would really recommend Bang Bang Body Arts for tattoos based on the experience that I had yesterday. The shop is really clean, Hector seemed meticulous as he followed hygienic procedures, the waiting area is comfortable, and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable! I am extremely happy with an experience that meant a lot to me.
