I cannot thank Matthew's enough. I have been wanting a new tattoo for some time and since I have…read morebeen in Johnstown more times than not lately I decided to give Matthew's a try. The day I arrived I had an idea of what I wanted but it wasn't set in stone just yet. I wanted lettering done in the old looking typewriter format. I searched their books to find the one that was closest to the format. I found ideally what I wanted and even though I was a walk in, I was in the waiting room within minutes. The size of my tattoo was small, so they were able to fit me in. I appreciate that. The waiting room is a bit confusing right now. They are in the middle of updating it to make it look less like a waiting room. While you wait you can do the usual and read a magazine or play around on your phone. Or if you like, walk around their taxidermy room. Yes, that's right, they have a taxidermy room. How awkwardly cool is that? The skulls are pretty awesome, especially the ones that have designs painted on them. Talk about different and one of a kind, this truly is an example of that. Once back in the chair things went rather smoothly. My anxiety was put at ease at how fast and efficient they work. Everything was done in what seemed like mere minutes to me. This being my eighth tattoo and by far the least complicated and smallest in size. I was very pleased to say the least. On my way out I stopped and looked at the jewelry they had for piercing and ended up picking up a hemp oil based balm to help with my tattoo. **For better clarification of what they can and cannot do, check out their website.**

Did a great job on one of 2 tattoos but the other other one on my forearm Frank either pressed to…read morehard or had a longer needle . He drew a lot of blood and instead of peeling like normal it formed a thick scab. I had an tattoo before and the older biker artist said if you draw blood you're not doing it right. So 3 stars is all Frank gets from me.

My son recently graduated from Parris Island M.C.R.D. He had mentioned getting a tattoo when he…read moregraduated so his sister wanted to surprise him with an appointment at Rising Phoenix Tattoo. However, when he got home he informed her he was ordered not to get a tattoo as it would not have time to properly heal before he began combat training in seven days. When he called to cancel the appointment and tell them he would return when his training was complete the man cursed him and hung up the phone before he could finish speaking. I have tattoos. My daughter has tattoos as do half the people in our family as well as many of our friends. I will be sure to tell them of this reprehensible, unprofessional behavior, and recommend another tattoo shop.
