She is…read moreextremely detailed when it comes to making sure you get the EXACT tattoo you want, down to font, placement etc. I carry around Heathen Ink business cards with me to give to others, as she is BY FAR the best tattoo artist I've ever been. Plus, there is NO HOUSE MINIMUM! I was quoted $250 for a deeply personal tattoo, which Bek was able to do for ONLY $50. She has already done 3 tattoos for me and I just scheduled my 4th session with her. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

I had my work done by Eris and not only is he a very nice welcoming individual but his skills are truly out of this world. I brought him a tattoo design and he improved it on his computer, asked for my opinion, gave me his opinion and then placed it exactly like we agreed onto my skin. It is a true work of art. My tattoo turns head everywhere I go and I couldn't be happier.

I can't say enough about Venture Tattoo. Anthony did a custom half-sleeve for me. It was my first…read moretattoo, but won't be my last. Anthony is an artist, plain and simple. He's an unbelievable talent who is also soft spoken and humble about his work. I know all the artists there are excellent, but if you're looking for something big, he's awesome. He worked for 6 hours on my arm. Got it done in one session, and because he is so good, pain was minimal and after care was painless (which surprised me). I waited 43 years to feel confident enough to get a tattoo. Anthony was the perfect artist for me and I can't wait to get back in there for the next one. I almost never write reviews like this but just want to make sure Anthony and Venture get their due respect from me after my experience there. Thanks. See you guys in October!

Made a rash decision to get my nose pierced at 10am on a Thursday. The apt process online was super…read moresmooth and easy and had an apt for 5:15 when I got off work. The front desk was super nice and helped me pick out my jewelry and fill out my forms. Lylia was my piercer and she was incredibly nice and walked me through everything. The actual piercing probably took less than 90 seconds and the whole appointment from door to door was about 20 minutes. I will definitely be back if I decide to get any more and will definitely be asking for Lylia again.

Space: As an Oak Park Studio "walk-in" looking to get my 7th tattoo, I was pleasantly surprised by…read morehow easy scheduling, paperwork, and service were. The studio gives "calm/peaceful" vibes, which helps me not be overstimulated or anxious. The shop is clean, tranquil, and shares global inclusive art creativity. Tattoo Artist: Jonathan was amazing! He greeted me with a genuine welcome and readiness to help. He explained my options, created my design, and was kind, professional, SKILLED, and hilarious. His positive, down-to-earth energy was contagious. I felt spoiled with VIP treatment the entire time. I LOVE my newest tattoo and will be back for another. Thank you, JP and Ageless Arts Tattoo & Body Piercing.

I've had three sessions with Angel over the last 6 months and I'm floored with how quickly our time goes by... being in the shop is like hanging with family; lots of convos make the time pass quickly and are a nice distraction to (let's be honest, tattoos feel like a cheese grater scrubbing your skin) the pain. I highly recommend if your looking for realism artists but if you check out their IG's you can get a real feel for the work they put out. @blackatlasstudios

Overall, extremely kind people that want to take care of you and give you the best quality art. Thank you guys for everything! I will definitely be returning!

Leo's attention to detail and artistic skill are unmatched. Every line, every bit of shading, always turns out clean and precise. On top of that, the atmosphere they create in the shop is relaxed and welcoming. I have always felt comfortable and cared for during every session. What really stands out is how much passion he puts into his work. You can tell he truly leans into his craft, and it shows in the quality and creativity of every piece. I'm so proud to have his artwork on my skin and can't recommend him enough to anyone looking for a tattoo artist who's talented, professional, and genuinely kind. Raquel also makes booking easy and seamless, I look forward to seeing them both!
