Wow just two reviews? I am sure that will change soon. I just got a piece done here and Ally does some really great work. I'll try and add photo once my piece heals if I can figure that out. Studio is perfect and super dope. They toss on movies to watch while your work is being done. It was all very professional and I felt super comfortable the whole time....well as comfortable as you can feel getting a tattoo done ;-) My design was pretty detailed and it looks just like it. Will be back! Read Less

I love the work that Alley and her shop produce. She takes your ideas and thoughts and makes a cohesive art piece of personal representation with her artistic spin. She is working on a piece for me that I am super stoked about! Very organized schedule that Tiff rocks out. Great communication via email and text once your appointment is set. They make you feel very comfortable. You get a pillow, blanket, and a movie of your choice. Numbing cream is for the warrior in us all! Seriously where was this stuff twenty years ago?! It still hurts but you can sit for much longer! Make an appointment soon because she books up fast! Read Less

If you want an amazing piece of art on your body... you have found the right place. I get stopped constantly in stores.. walking down the street. People tell me all the time they never liked tattoos until they saw mine. Now people that never even considered getting one in the past want one. But I tell them there is no one like Ally out there. I have sent many of my friends and everyone loves their work. If you want to get in there is about a 6 month wait list I believe. But its worth the wait. I love all the girls at the shop. Not only is Ally a ridiculously amazing artist. Her shop manager Tiff makes you feel like royalty. If you can afford to get a tatt get it done right... Check out all their work on FB and Instagram. You won't be disappointed!!! Read Less

I am having my first tattoo done, a full sleeve. Ally has done a phenomenal job. Her shop manager Tiffany is also amazing. Both are super professional. Ally not only cares about your art work she cares about you as a person and client. I would reccommend her to anyone who wants the best work. She can do any style. The shop is super professional but also very chill and laid back. I plan to get more work done by Ally in the future! :) Read Less
