The only reason i stopped going was because i moved across the country. This is truly one of the one spots in the north country that i will miss and it's going to be hard for me to find another tattoo artist i like and trust as much.

The price was going to be reasonable, and I paid a deposit (hopefully I will get it back!), was ready to pay and get my work today and nothing. The shop was closed so I tried calling and left messages, then texted vis FB messages still no response for an hour, then I get a message saying that the piercer is trying to get ahold of Alyssa. More hours go by and no word. Finally I said enough (while running errands around Watertown waiting for a response, and just canceled. This is ridiculous and very unprofessional! Would not recommend after talking to 3 other shops and hearing all their issues!

My boyfriend and I went to this shop thinking it was gonna be the same experience as the shop…read morelocated in Evans Mills, we got tattoos done by this girl named Kovy and absolutely loved how professional and nice she was. The second we arrived in Watertown the shop wasn't open and it said they were on lunch but we had already called and set an appointment up with them beforehand and they said 3 o'clock. We sat outside calling the shop for about 20 minutes with no answer until the lady picked up and said Darrell would be on his way. Time just kept flying by until we heard news that Darrell was coming from court. We sat in the shop and didn't get any work done until 6 o'clock after having a set appointment for 3. Also, meanwhile my boyfriend had an idea of what he wanted for his arm sleeve and did not receive any where close to what he wanted. We payed 750 for this and it's definitely not worth the money meanwhile Darrell said we would fill my boyfriends whole arm out for the amount we had given him and hadn't. I told my boyfriend to ask for it back but we were told that he had already spent it on meth very unprofessional by the way. Meanwhile all of this is going on and we went back because he said he could finish it and picked my boyfriend up around 3 and didn't bring him back until 1 in the morning with it still not finished and continues to ask for more money when we haven't even received the amount of work we had payed for. The artist was getting up all the time and could not stay still and also left my boyfriend in his shop alone for around 1 hour. We have called and called him to finish or just give us money back so we can just be done with this place but he hasn't even answered the phone. Very very frustrating and not happy with this place at all. Wouldn't recommend going here. Meanwhile we're sitting at another shop getting his work all fixed up, even the tattoo artist here say it's shitty work. Meanwhile my twin brother got a tattoo done by them too and the tattoo artist didn't even do it and let an apprentice do it which is fine no hate to let someone who's just starting do something but she couldn't even do it so he started it and it looks worse too.
