My mom and I decided to get tattoos while she was in town. James was able to fit us in as walk-ins. He was personable and professional. His workmanship is great. I will definitely be back!

wow! I got a tattoo from here with a friend almost exactly a year ago. I was a little nervous, because truthfully it was a last minute "thing" a coworker and I wanted to do while in town for a training. Luckily for us they had an opening like right after the training was done, be ause someone had canceled, and we could be fit in. I feel terrible that I cannot remember who did our tattoos, but they were the nicest guy ever. Like seriously, most of my past experiences I felt like I was an annoyance or what I wanted was too lowly for them, but this guy was soo incredibly nice, even offering to fix a really really old tattoo I got when I was 18... which now looking back, (and looking at that tattoo....) I wish I had taken him up on the offer, because it was super affordable and how cool is that?! I really really want to go back... for something new... and to get that ole' thing fixed up and pretty again. I feel terrible I cannot remember his name, but he sat in the front- more secluded area, and was super social- just an all around nice person - oh and also after about a year, it still looking fabulous for both of us

Not their official but I like it

Went for my 1st Tatt, went with my Sis & another girl... I went in nervous and scared... Left out unsure if I would do it again. But now that the healing is done... the more I look at it the more I want to go back for a second. As a matter of face, I will be going back for a second. Kevin has a very relaxing personality, yes for all the giggles and laughs he was also very professional & sanitary. Took the time to answer every question we had, and we had a LOT of questions. Was the best experience I could have ever hoped for, glad I waited... ended up in the right hands. Kevin is the man! :D

Thank you Paul! I'm obsessed with it.

I went to a tattoo shop before I came here and the customer service was so horrible I didn't even want anyone from there touching my body. So then I found the tattoo shop and looked at Paul's work and loved everything. So I told him what I wanted and he was so easy to talk to and helpful he drew it up and did it right that day. I told him about how bad the other place was and we talked and he made me comfortable. The tattoo came out absolutely perfect. Exactly what I wanted but better. I am so happy things didn't work out at the other place. The tattoo shop is where I will be coming for all of my future tattoos.

A few months ago I contacted Levi Hatch at Eclectic about my second tattoo. He responded that he…read morecould come up with something great and asked about booking a time. I responded with my availability and asked when he could get an idea of a design so that I could make sure we were on the same page. He responded with "Sorry I'm no longer interested". I was pretty bummed... I got the tattoo somewhere else, and recently was looking for another artist to add to it and make it a full sleeve. I contacted a couple of artists and included Levi, because I really did love the samples of his work that I saw. Again he said he was interested and essentially said that there was no need for a consultation, just book a date and he would draw something right there. I again gave him a week that would work for me and asked if it was possible to meet for a few minutes or talk over the phone about some design questions/ideas. Again he responded with "Sorry, I'm no longer interested". I found this very unprofessional and frustrating. I guess if you can get in with him and don't mind not having any input over the design that will be on your skin forever, he might do a great job. Or any questions about size, placement, expected number of sessions, etc...

Did some research and found this place. All the artists work looks great. I chose to work with Levi…read moreHatch. Great guy and great artist. These guys are professionals not a bunch of hacks. Be patient when you reach out to them. They are sought after and busy but they will get back to you. Be thorough in your email so they can give you an informed response. The gallery has a great vibe. Very mellow and great music. Looking forward to working with Levi on my next piece.

I went here at the suggestion of a friend. She said there was only one male tattoo artist, the…read moreowner and he had done a large piece for her that I admired. My sister-in-law accompanied me as I was paying for her first tattoo for her birthday. Being it was my first tattoo, I was quite nervous. I was a little confused when there were two male artists working but I had requested the owner so it didn't matter. Or so I thought! He pushed us off on his "friend" and new artist Conrad, whom he assured us was only new to the shop, not tattooing. I assumed he would only hire a professional. Unfortunately, assuming was a terrible mistake! The guy seemed a little shaky and in a rush. I shouldn't have stayed when I noticed him acting a little spacey or after his extended pre-appointment bathroom break but I didn't want to jump to conclusions. I was irritated when he refused to put our husbands initials in the hearts as we requested but he said he thought it would bring the shop bad karma or some paranoid mess like that so how could I demand it? My mistake, this is something I am paying to have on my body for life so it should have been done as I requested but I didn't assert myself. When my sister-in-law was done, we didn't love it but he assured us it would look better when it healed. I should have left then. I can't say whether it was because I prepaid or if it was a sense of duty since I had chosen this mistake and she went first but I went ahead with it. Conrad was nodding by this point so it should be no shock that mine turned out as horrible as hers but mine ended up slightly worse in that my design had atrociously executed shading that hers lacked. The lettering and hearts he downloaded shouldn't have been that difficult. I paid almost $200 and tipped the minimum 10% I give any service person, even if they suck, because I feel it's mandatory. He didn't even thank me. I continue to apologize to my sister-in-law because they are fully healed but no better. Fuzzy lines, awful shading, uneven lettering and not even completed as we requested. I'm truly ashamed of what looks like a homemade junkie mess. It's completely my fault but horrifying anyway. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!
