I chose to get my tattoo here because I was referred by another client of hers with a really gorgeous tattoo, so I had seen a good example of her work. I found her (Sara? It's been several years so I don't recall her name) to be very friendly and easy to work with. She talked with me about what I wanted, then came up with a design that was close, and we iterated on it until it was exactly what I was hoping for. But just as with the other review, the actual tattoo is NOT well done. The lines are shaky and have inconsistent widths. The design was a Celtic knot work pattern, and at the points where the lines are supposed to cross over / under one another she didn't stop in time, so I have little lines jutting out into the criss-crossing bands. And she squashed one side of the pattern so it looks off center and asymmetrical. Basically, it looks like a child traced a cool design really poorly onto my arm.I didn't go back to her to fix it, because I don't ever want her touching my skin with a needle again. I'm about to pay someone else to try and repair it. It's too bad her inking abilities weren't on par with her design aesthetic and skills. I had really wanted to love this tattoo.

I have seen at least 7 people with tat's from Sara Lee and to be frank she has no talent!!! She can copy and paste whatever onto your body, but her work is S***!!!I think she should give it up. She will personally not tattoo a miner, but let that miner call her friend an asian guy called Dr. Slick and he will do just as bad as a job for half the price. If you are a new artist starting out we can be aware of that, but going to someone who is charging $200.00 an hour to mess up your body is B S !!!! know that you know this and if you still go to Sara lee for a tattoo, well that's on you. I have no respect for her. Whatever T. eye you can color so can a five year old, but you don't see them doing tattoo's. To be honest I would be a little scared to mess up someone's body for life since your office is where you live.

I figure that the scant information I have here is better than nothing, so...I am about to check this woman out, because my husband used to drive by her studio, which is housed in a personal residence. He stopped one day, intrigued by the nice sign on the street. He talked to her for quite some time, and she was very nice, easy to talk with, and gave my husband a few "go-think-it-over" drawings and suggestions. He was extremely impressed with her professionalism and her artwork, not to mention the bonus her nice personality. Hope she's around tomorrow!LATER: September 28, 2011. This experience was bad. Sara Lee is a VERY nice woman, but she is either distracted, or lost some tattooing capacity. What I wanted was a small red star, outlined in black. Simple! The first try came out poorly, with crooked outlines (how hard could it have been), and weak pinkish color. The only fix to this was to make the lines thicker to hide the crooked parts. I wasn't happy, and called her to have her do it. She was VERY sorry that I wasn't happy, and was very apologetic and willing to work with me. I explained what I wanted her to do, but ended up getting something looking as though I'd scratched it into myself in prison! The thick lines cross one another, and the points have quiloids (raised scarring) from her penetrating my skin too deeply. Now I have a very sloppy, very un-pretty star on my left wrist and I have no idea what I am going to do about it. I wanted this little treat to myself so much, and waited until I was into my 50's before doing it. What a huge disappointment. I'm sorry Sara Lee...you are an obviously wonderful person, whose caring and friendliness emanates from you. Somehow, though, the tattoo experience (aside from the nice visits with you) was really bad. Sorry.
