    Here's the tattoo.
    alissia s.

    I got a Friday the 13th tattoo here and it looks like a kid did it. Im having my actual professional artist fix it soon because i cried myself to sleep with how bad it looks. I don't care if it is a cheap tattoo but if you are someone who's job is to do tattoos then take it serious bc it's on me forever. So unprofessional and I'm sure the guy was drunk or on some major drugs. Also Edward Jasper Espinosa is just as bad as the guy who did mine. He tried to make me take down this review in hopes I'd go to him to have it fixed but his artwork on his instagram is horrendous. I would never give my money to that place ever again. Please don't go near this shop!

    Piercing our ears!

    My teen came and asked if we'd be able to get her ears pierced, so we came here after a family member recommended this place. No joke, we were in and out in about 10 minutes, and this is with the piercing tech having to stop a tattoo for her little ears! XS is clean, the staff is attentive, quick, and friendly. They were so fast with he piercing, counted down for her since she started to get nervous, and hid the needle on their glove so she wouldn't see since she stated getting anxious. Since she is a a minor, we brought my ID, and her school ID as proof we were related. We actually called ahead for that information. They gave us a sheet of paper after for care instructions. I was very attracted to the decor inside. They had several antique items on display, which kept us entertained while we waited. The rooms are spacious, clean, and set up nicely done for quick grabbing and set up. Overall, we were very satisfied with the service we were provided, and my daughter loves her earrings!

    Probably the worst tattoo ever. already scheduled a cover up 2 days after. i paid $100 for this piece of shit. at first the heart was so bad i was crying. came back in had a different artist fix it. but god damn wtf is this shit???? apparently it was an apprentice but why would u let him do a tattoo like this then? i'm so upset with myself more than anything for not researching.

    I would say that this was the worst tattoo experience I have ever had. A group of friends and I all went to XS Ink for their Friday the 13th tattoo event. We originally got tattooed by Jason Christ and I would not recommend him to anyone. He not only messed up on the two tattoos that I received, but also the 9 other tattoos that my group of friends got. I do understand that there is a level of art that is expected for a Friday the 13th tattoo, however the end product was horrific. We were also the last group of people that Jason Christ had tattooed that day, and he had mentioned that he had been there tattooing all day. He also mentioned that he had 20+ years of tattooing experience, so I am very confused and baffled that he let us walk out the way that we did. I wish if he felt burnt out, or unable to deliver at least a half decent tattoo, that he would have advocated for himself and tapped out. That tattoos me and my friends received from Jason Christ were unforgivable and irresponsible. That being said, my friends and I all returned to XS Ink to have all 11 of our tattoos fixed by a different artist. We had called before and talked to one of the owners Nick, who was very understanding and nice about the situation. He told us to of course come in, and he would handle the situation and we could get all of the tattoos touched up. When we got there, the front desk ladies were also very helpful and were aware of the situation. We even talked to the other owner Blue who was also very understanding, nice and empathetic to our situation. He even was upset by the work that Jason Christ had done to me and all of my friends. He told us of course we can touch them up, and try and fix them. That was when we saw the tattoo artist Johnny V, who was honestly a life saver. He assessed all of the 11 tattoos and told us that he could definitely help us out, and was very understanding and apologetic for our situation. He did everything he could to try and save the tattoos, and we all left feeling much better about the look of our tattoos. They weren't and couldn't be 100% because of the terrible job Jason Christ had done originally, but we were understanding that Johnny did everything he could to make sure we were happy in the end. Overall I would recommend any other artist at XS Ink except Jason Christ. Johnny V was very nice, helpful and talented. All of the staff was very understanding, empathetic and helpful to our situation. I liked the vibe of the tattoo shop as well. Just avoid Jason Christ. Attached pictures are the stencil reference pictures, the BEFORE (Jason Christ's work) and AFTER (Johnny V's work).

    Sooooooooo happy I got to get not one but TWO piercings for my birthday! And the best part was I got to do it with my sister cousins! In total we got 7 piercings between the 4 of us! I went for my second nostril (stud) and my navel! Jason and his team are awesome! We'll be back for the next birthday!

    Erica M.

    Everyone here was so nice, professional, and did amazing work. My niece and I went to go get matching tattoos for her birthday while in town for the weekend. They exceeded our expectations. Nate did mine and Blue did hers and they both outdid themselves. We'll definitely be coming back for more.

    My sister and I went to get friday the 13th tattoos yesterday and we were so excited to get them. This past friday the 13th i went and got one done by Blue (i believe is his name) and it was cute and adorable. This time my sister got a cute jelly fish. However the line work is horrible and it looks like a 5 year old did it. She immediately booked another appointment an hour later to cover it up at a different shop. This guy was white and he was stationed in the second room on the right. I forgot his name and don't get me wrong he was a very nice guy, but he had to be drunk or on drugs or not a professional tattoo artist because it is absolutely horrible. And shame on XS for letting him work there. DO NOT GO HERE !!!

    Stunning! Thanks so much, Nate & everyone at XS Ink!
    Traci B.

    Everyone at XS Ink is AWESOME! I got a Daith piercing from Nick, and I got 2 tattoos from Nate, who is one of the coolest people on the planet! I was so impressed with Nate's artistic ability, it was such a pleasure to connect with him. I am so happy I found this cool shop, and can't say enough good things about it and everyone there!

    Shoutout to Nick for the nose piercing! Was super quick, easy and painless. Felt like he's done it a thousand times. Will definitely be back!

    Dermal removal.

    Dermal removal. Painless, and fast. Not even one drop of blood drawn. Very professional. Jason is the man.

    One forward helix, and then 6 nose piercings

    Visiting Vegas for the weekend, and decided it's the perfect time to get piercings! Called ahead to see if they take walk-ins, and 30 mins later went in with a large party (the whole family lol, 7 people). They weren't busy, only a group of 2 in front of us and we didn't have to wait long either. In total our piercer was able to pierce all 7 of us in probably less than 30 minutes. Our piercer and the girl that was working (sorry, their names are completely escaping my mind) were very nice, amicable, and excellent at keeping those in our party that were nervous, calm. Shop was brightly lit and very clean. Gloves changed in between people and surfaces wiped down. New needles and everything used every time... basically general sanitization and cleaning procedures followed! Clean, efficient service! Overall I'm so happy that we decided to stop here, can't recommend this place enough.

    Me and my friends went and got Friday the 13th tattoos here. The wait was only 45 minutes give or take (it seemed shorter to me) and everyone was really nice and welcoming. It was already pretty late, close to 10 so it was busy but they were quickly getting through everyone. We were trying to find a reputable tattoo shop that does friday the 13th tattoos (which is already really difficult). every other shop had hour waits and this was the only place with such a low wait time. Our artist was really funny and nice and he did a really quality job really quickly. Very happy with my little ghost and hes healing very nicely!!

    I LOVEEE MY NEW BELLY PIERCING ! It's sooo cute and was worth the 4 seconds of pain
    Shem C.

    So I'm from LA and I made a last minute decision to get my belly pierced the weekend I was in Vegas. I needed a place that would allow me to WALK IN because my schedule was sooo hectic and finally I stumbled across this place on Yelp and they were so inviting over the phone that I knew I had to go. When I got there in person, the shop was SO NEAT, CLEAN, ORGANIZED, and HOSPITABLE! I was taken in immediately, and the man who did my piercing kept reassuring me that it was going to be quick and easy ... and it was ! I was sooo nervous but it went by so quick. I loved the energy of the piercer and the service at the front desk! Overall it was a super amazing experience and I really want to go back for a tattoo because they also do dope ass work

I was very clear and descript in what I wanted, but several shops refused to quote me unless I uploaded art and called out a specific font. I wanted 12 small characters and was open to allowing the artist to suggest the best font. Being s small job, I was certain it would qualify for a shop minimum, but many shops had unreasonable minimums. I was told the tattoo would take 30-45 based on what I described and since it had been 30 years since I had a tattoo, I didn't recall what I paid or how long my original ping pong ball sized tattoo took or cost. Revolt was cool, they gave me more attention and feedback than other shop, but would not budge on the $200 minimum. I felt like my job would have been $30 at Koolsville, but I wanted someone with more expertise to do the job. In the end, I waited till I got to town, and Illuminati Tattoo was across the street from our hotel. They did an excellent job on my tattoo; it took about 15 minutes and the shop minimum was $100. I knew my job was small when the artist asked me if he could take a minute to touch up my existing tattoo. If you are on the fence or don't need an artist that has been seen on A&E, just recognize they are shop that take on smaller jobs for a fair price.

    FRANK Oh. My. God…read more Where do I even begin with this absolute fever dream of an experience. I went to frank for a tattoo thinking I was about to embark on a meaningful, spiritual journey of self-expression. What I actually embarked on was a psychological thriller directed by someone who once saw a tattoo machine in a YouTube ad and said, "Yeah, I can do that." First of all, this man's studio looked like a storage unit that lost a custody battle. The "vibe" was somewhere between abandoned dentist office and haunted vape shop. There was a single folding chair that sounded like it was begging for mercy every time I breathed. Now let's talk about the tattoo. I actually had to take a lap around the studio because WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT'S ON MY BODY FOREVER AND IT'S PERFECT??? The lines are so clean they look AI-generated. The shading? So smooth it feels illegal. The placement? Spiritual. Cosmically aligned. If I stand at the right angle I'm pretty sure it unlocks inner peace. I keep catching myself staring at it like it's a new pet. I have shown it to strangers. I have adjusted my outfits to make sure it's visible. I moisturize it like it's royalty. If it asked me for rent, I would pay it. The pain? Worth it. The adrenaline? Elite. The emotional attachment? Concerning. This tattoo has changed my personality. I now say things like "yeah, my artist..." as if I've been part of an underground art collective for years. I have zero chill about it. If you make eye contact with me for longer than two seconds, I will show you. Five stars for talent. Five stars for making me question reality. I walked in mildly nervous and walked out feeling like I had just been branded by a mysterious but benevolent art deity. Would I go back? Absolutely. Would I understand him any better? Probably not. Do I care? Not even slightly. Anyway, 10/10. No notes. I would absolutely let this happen to me again.

Inspired by the Welcome to Holland poem, my friend and I got matching tulip tattoos--something deeply personal, but also full of beauty and meaning. From the very beginning, Amethyst was everything you hope for in a tattoo artist and more. She was incredibly responsive, warm, professional, and knowledgeable. There's a calm, poised energy about her that instantly puts you at ease--especially if you're someone who finds the whole tattoo process a little intimidating (which, let's be real, a lot of us do). She walked us through every step with clarity and care, making sure we felt comfortable and confident the entire time. Her shop was clean, stylish, and had such a cool, welcoming vibe. And the aftercare kit she gave us? So thoughtful and well put together--it really showed how much she cares about her clients beyond just the appointment.
