Can't wait to go back…read more Zeke has been tattooing my mom for years and I knew that I was going to them when I was ready for mine. They did a fantastic job, I am so pleased. Was such a great vibe in there and the history of this little shop turned national brand is a testament to our little city! Everyone was super nice, I definitely recommend this business. Thank you for this very meaningful tat, I will see you again soon.

If you're ever having any sort of crisis in your life or need to redirect some energy, getting a…read morepiercing is the best distraction in my opinion. A little bit of pain for an instant change to your self and then lasting pain and care while it heals! I should get a hobby. I did a lot of research for different studios around the city. A main concern of mine was the quality of the piercers. I liked that their Instagram did feature the work of their piercers and tagged them so you could check out what they've done in the past. They list their piercing prices on the website and they differ based on placements. I found their prices to be average. Some places were way higher (double in some cases!) across the board, even for simple piercings. I prebooked online and was able to select a time. I had to pay the piercing fee upfront which was $40 for a rook piercing. They clearly explain the fees while booking. On the day of the piercing, they recommend that you eat at least 3 hours before your appointment. They have a lot of reception staff working there. I was kind of surprised! I had to fill out a waiver that had a bit of information on my health history (mostly to do with whether I had an issues with bleeding) and whether needles would impact me. I was taken to the piercing area at the back after that. I checked out the jewelry first. I was never rushed to pick faster which I appreciated. Jewelry isn't cheap! I liked how transparent my piercer was with the costs of jewelry. They had a tablet that was able to quickly pull up prices so I could decide what I was okay with. Some of these pieces were several hundred dollars so it was good to know before checkout. All in all my total price tag was around $350 and if you worked out the earlier math from before you can see how much some of the jewlery cost! It is definitely a little pricey but expected. They carry great brands like BVLA and Junipurr so it's not unexpected. One thing I was a little disappointed about was that they didn't carry much in rose gold, only white and yellow gold. They carry some piercing aftercare there like the Neilmed rinses which are a little expensive at $22 a bottle but convenient since you can get it during your appointment.

I had an amazing experience at Ink and Water! I had booked a tattoo online with Tara…read more(@queenofhounds_) several months ago and had clear communication with her assistant when booking. Tara texted me the night before to go over my design and asked if there were any changes I wanted to make, sending pictures of both my reference and her design. I was tattooed during COVID restrictions (the day before closing for the November lockdown) and the receptionist was professional and their screening process was quick and efficient. All staff wore masks, artists were spaced out, and there was only one other client getting a tattoo, bringing the total number of people in the shop to 5. Tara was friendly, professional and printed out 4 different sized stencils. She was patient as I hemmed and hawed over half a centimeter of placement and explained everything as she did it. This wasn't my first tattoo, but I appreciated how thorough she was. The tattoo itself took maybe 15 minutes total and Tara and I chatted the entire time. I couldn't believe how quickly it went and how much I loved the final product. She took a few photos, which she immediately sent me, and went over aftercare instructions, which the shop also emailed to me. Overall, I would hands-down recommend Tara and Ink and Water when they re-open. They are friendly, welcoming, professional, and this shop is SPOTLESS

Would love to leave a more detailed review, but to be honest i didn't even get the tattoo. Despite…read morepaying a nonrefundable deposit, my artist, Michelle, sent me the "sketch" (a cheap looking design clearly knocked up in 10 minutes in photoshop), and ignored 99% of my requested revisions, only to just minimally tweak it slightly in photoshop again, before telling me that any more "revisions" would cost me $60 each- a process that could have gone on indefinitely, and would take me out of my price range. We sent each other multiple reference images, all of which were ignored, and looked nothing like her sketches, and it became clear the second i was forced to cancel that she never had any interest/intention of doing the tattoo, but was of course happy to take the $200+ deposit in exchange for the 15 minutes of work she put into her designs. A terrible experience for a first tattoo, and i felt incredibly ripped off.

It's my second time going to Tattoo people, and on a somewhat walkin basis…read more My requests are somewhat basic as a copypasta and remix type of person. Response time is prompt about tattoos as long as you're clear about what you want You get to discuss the way the tattoo ought to change and they make live edits on the spot. The venue is clean and they seem to take appropriate sanitary precautions. The first time I got a bashful psyduck from a Korean woman who seemed to understand the sensibility I was going for. I had sent 2 reference photos and neither had a full body but she was able to match it very well. We even had the body adjusted so he looked rounder. The next time I got an Iranian artist who took incredible time with the fine lines although I asked for something quite simplistic. I appreciated his attention to detail. Would return.

I had sent them the image ahead of time with another image for an idea of shading. We talked to Bahador & made an appointment for the actual tattoo session for both of us. The day of the session we waited a bit as Bahador was with another client & finishing up. We showed him the images again & decided on the size & placement of the tattoo on each of us. Hubby went first & I waited on the couch nearby. It took about 1.5 hours for his session. Then I was next. Hubby had his tattoo placed on his forearm & I had mine placed on my left shoulder. Bahador was professional & nice. I kind of wondered if he was bored because our design was really simple. But we picked him because we really liked his other work that we saw on instagram. I think if I get another tattoo that is more elaborate I would like him to do it. He's very talented. The receptionist Talin (spelling) was really nice also. Her personality is friendly & bubbly. She offered us a drink while we waited. I opted for a simple bottle of water. There is a single washroom on the main floor for customers. There is also a lower level where some other artists work but we didn't go there so I'm not sure what it looks like. The main floor though is very brightly lit. The floors are white tiles. And the walls are white also. The tattoo chairs are black with silver hardware. Everything is very clean. Anyway, we were very satisfied with our matching tattoos. We also think the price was reasonable. I would come back here if I ever get another tattoo. Hubby has been here before & so has my SIL.

When I showed up in 40 min, there were 3 guys. 2 were very nice, friendly, amazing guys. But Chris, who turned out to be my tattooer in his 50's was pretty rude. I wanted 2 armbands 3 millimeters wide. He marked them on my arm and told me to check if they were fine. they were wavy and he corrected them by hands, saying: People want STUPID tattoos like straight lines on arm wrists which are not straight. I couldn't believe I was told that in tattoo salon... when i said there is one more wave which needs to be corrected he said: I'm not gonna do it. At all. It's not as easy as I thought. and he was rude as hell. I'd recommend 2 other guys, but Chris.. You are not meant to work with people,really..
