Went in to get a tattoo for my grandma who raised me who passed not even a week before.. Come in and tell the guy, I believe his name was Reverend Jeff, what I want and show him. He then goes to draw it up as I walk over to see how it's going he looks up at me and says "You better not be watching me, Do you not know how F****** annoying that is", So I said sorry and walked away, He then started to do my tattoo which is on my forearm down towards my wrist and speaks to me like I'm 2, Tells me how I'm such a good girl and I'm doing great for a girl and just talks in a baby voice towards me. Which I believe is unprofessional.. As he was doing the tattoo he would go down toward my wrist and say "this is really going to hurt" and repeatedly go over it and just look at me. I loved the tattoo at first it was beautiful.. The visit was my worst experience with a tattoo ever and he was very rude and unprofessional. Now my tattoo 3 weeks later is starting to heal up and it's so scared up already and hurts. It was swollen for a week after I got it and I don't mean just the area I mean my whole forearm was swollen.  This is the tattoo 3 weeks later.. Read Less

We actually got what we came for, which was a nostril piercing for my daughter.  It was quick and I did see the piercer pull the stuff he stuck in her nose from a sterile kit, so there's that, but there is nothing else good to say about this place.  Everyone in the place was rude and made you feel unwelcome and their tats looked like they were all done on cell block nine.  I definitely wouldn't get inked in this shit hole.

Not once did they pressure me to settle on anything I might not be happy with, they helped me reach the perfect result for my tattoos.

I got my labret done by Charles. He did an excellent job. It healed right away with absolutely no problems. He was down to earth and easy to talk to. He educated me on after care. I was able to switch piercing in just a few weeks. Looking forward to getting a few tattoos by him. I would recommend this place to everyone. Went back got a tat and a cover up done by Charles. Both turned out exactly what I wanted and he even added in something at last minute. My dad like both so much he also got a tattoo plus he is getting windows tinted this weekend. I find it pretty ignorant some of these reviews. When I didn't find any of them to be true in my visits to Tattoo Warehouse! Read Less

I have heard bad reviews on this place, however decided to stop by with my daughter. We wanted snake eye tongue piercings.  He had a bad attitude since we walked in, I went first and i guess i was not sticking out my tongue enough.  Which he then kept telling me to stick it out more and pushed my jaw down! Which i was not having that! I proceeded to tell him if he didnt want to do the piercing he didnt have to , but i did not tolerate his rudeness and lack of customer service. He was completely rude and unprofessional and i walked out. I strongly recommend no one to set foot in this place. Everything said about this place is true lived it first hand . I have several tattoos and some piercings and NEVER have i dealt with such an unprofessional person. The only reason im even putting one star is because it isnt giving me the option of ZERO.

I came to Tattoo Warehouse for my bellybutton at 13, and my first tattoo at 18. I had very fond memories, despite its obvious reputation. I decided to stop in and get a memorial piece for my late girlfriend, since she had taken me here for my first inking. Charles remained seated, watching TV, while I chatted with a man who never introduced himself or shook my hand. This individual was not only condescending & unprofessional, but had an overwhelming stench and was unable to trace even the simplest of designs. He was very gruff, and was repeatedly derogatory under the guise of jest- saying I was a "joke" for wanting a hand tattoo (Despite having them himself?), mocking my design.. instantly explained why the shop was dead on a Friday afternoon . This man was so off-putting and rude I didnt bother mentioning that this was for my girl who passed in October and was only 22. I couldnt imagine getting a permanent piece from somebody like this guy. I was set on going to Tattoo Warehouse for the sentimental value, but I was severely repulsed and will never be returning.

I have several tattoos, which were done by another artist at another shop.  I always said I would never get work done here, but two of my close friends just said I was getting bad information... turns out I wasn't.  I went with my fiance and decided to finally let Charles do my ENGAGEMENT RING tattoo... HUGE MISTAKE!!!  I brought in the design, which was simple, not too much detail, but perfect for what I was wanting.  I didn't think there was any way he could mess it up, and I was so very wrong!  It turned out NOTHING like the design I brought in, and I was so upset... this was my ENGAGEMENT RING, forever to be tattooed on my finger!!  It turned out so badly that Charles told me to give it some time to heal and he would fix it at no charge, but I never went back, there was no way I was going to let him try and fix it, I would rather pay another artist full price just to try and fix up the mess of a tattoo I ended up getting from Charles!!Not only that, but my fiance also brought in a design as well, and Charles said he could "probably do it", but wanted to charge him over $300 for it, and we had already gotten quotes from other shops, the highest being  $150. My fiance ended up going next door to Boundless, where they not only did it for $150, but they didn't "try" to do the design he brought in, the artist did it PERFECTLY!!  They wanted $25 more than Charles to do my ring tattoo, and I wish I would have just paid the higher amount at Boundless, because I would have walked out of there with the engagement ring tattoo that I wanted, not the mess I have now that I have to get fixed!!  I should have stuck with my gut, which was that I should NEVER go to Charles to get work done.I will NEVER return, nor would I EVER recommend Tattoo Warehouse to ANYONE. I wouldn't return even if he offered to do anything I want for free, that is literally how low my opinion of his work is.  For the price I paid, my tattoo SHOULD have been dead on.  So very disappointed, especially given the fact that I got my tattoo from Charles himself.

After entering Tattoo Warehouse i realized the place was a great environment. They have multiple tv's to not only entertain the customers getting tattoos but to entertain anyone else who shows up to watch.  The customer service is exceptional. All 3 employees who were present when we arrived were extremely friendly and personable which combines for a fantastic environment. A very fun and entertaining place to be at if you're getting a tattoo or just watching. We showed up at the Tattoo Warehouse on a sunday night at 10:03 after calling them before and letting them know we would be late. Having such exceptional customer service they still invited us and asked us to check out they're beautiful work. All 3 customers left feeling welcomed and satisfied with the customer service and work of the tattoo artists expressed. I will be spreading the word about this establishment and coming here again.

Literally one of the worst places I've ever been too. Not only did they never respond to my phone calls after I put down a size able deposit, but when I went in to see what the deal was they "lost my artwork/sketches and any notes of my concept". They appeared to be drug addicts and were extremely unprofessional when confronted about the matter. I never got my tattoo, never got my deposit back, and will never see my face again. If you're looking for a place to get a bong and some bad ink this is the place for you. Please understand you'll not be happy with the work I've seen several peoples art since my fiasco and a majority of these people are getting their work either covered up or redone by true professional artist.

This place is unprofessional, overpriced and if you look at their website you will see their work is at best not that good. Me and my wife made a mistake going there for a cover up that I felt was overpriced. We where surprised to see that they even have clientele but if you see the people that goes there are either kids that know no better or friends. When looking for a tattoo shop PLEASE review all options. Look around and sometimes it pays to pay more and not settle for $2.50 tattoo Thursdays, you will pat yourself on the back. Read Less

I had gone here for a piercing, It wasn't healing correctly so I had gone to another shop, he had told me that no matter what shop you go to they are suppose to give you a print out of the "after care". I was unaware of this, and they had not given me any information on how to take care of it, I had to ask. They were all so quiet, and didn't want to make any conversation I had a lot of questions on the piercing, and they didn't seem very interested. The work was nicely done, and I've seen there profolies for tattoo's they look descent. It wasn't the shop for me, and everyone has a different expierience. When looking for a shop I look for friendly, comforting, and proffesionalism, which I didn't recieve here.

Went in to get a tattoo for my grandma who raised me who passed not even a week before.. Come in and tell the guy, I believe his name was Reverend Jeff, what I want and show him. He then goes to draw it up as I walk over to see how it's going he looks up at me and says "You better not be watching me, Do you not know how F****** annoying that is", So I said sorry and walked away, He then started to do my tattoo which is on my forearm down towards my wrist and speaks to me like I'm 2, Tells me how I'm such a good girl and I'm doing great for a girl and just talks in a baby voice towards me. Which I believe is unprofessional.. As he was doing the tattoo he would go down toward my wrist and say "this is really going to hurt" and repeatedly go over it and just look at me. I loved the tattoo at first it was beautiful.. The visit was my worst experience with a tattoo ever and he was very rude and unprofessional.

It was swollen for a week after I got it and I don't mean just the area I mean my whole forearm was swollen.  This is the tattoo 3 weeks later.. Read Less

I was able to switch piercing in just a few weeks. Looking forward to getting a few tattoos by him. I would recommend this place to everyone. Went back got a tat and a cover up done by Charles. Both turned out exactly what I wanted and he even added in something at last minute. My dad like both so much he also got a tattoo plus he is getting windows tinted this weekend.

I have heard bad reviews on this place, however decided to stop by with my daughter. We wanted snake eye tongue piercings.  He had a bad attitude since we walked in, I went first and i guess i was not sticking out my tongue enough.  Which he then kept telling me to stick it out more and pushed my jaw down! Which i was not having that! I proceeded to tell him if he didnt want to do the piercing he didnt have to , but i did not tolerate his rudeness and lack of customer service. He was completely rude and unprofessional and i walked out. I strongly recommend no one to set foot in this place. Everything said about this place is true lived it first hand . I have several tattoos and some piercings and NEVER have i dealt with such an unprofessional person. The only reason im even putting one star is because it isnt giving me the option of ZERO.

I came to Tattoo Warehouse for my bellybutton at 13, and my first tattoo at 18. I had very fond memories, despite its obvious reputation. I decided to stop in and get a memorial piece for my late girlfriend, since she had taken me here for my first inking. Charles remained seated, watching TV, while I chatted with a man who never introduced himself or shook my hand. This individual was not only condescending & unprofessional, but had an overwhelming stench and was unable to trace even the simplest of designs. He was very gruff, and was repeatedly derogatory under the guise of jest- saying I was a "joke" for wanting a hand tattoo (Despite having them himself?), mocking my design.. instantly explained why the shop was dead on a Friday afternoon . This man was so off-putting and rude I didnt bother mentioning that this was for my girl who passed in October and was only 22. I couldnt imagine getting a permanent piece from somebody like this guy. I was set on going to Tattoo Warehouse for the sentimental value, but I was severely repulsed and will never be returning.

I have several tattoos, which were done by another artist at another shop.  I always said I would never get work done here, but two of my close friends just said I was getting bad information... turns out I wasn't.  I went with my fiance and decided to finally let Charles do my ENGAGEMENT RING tattoo... HUGE MISTAKE!!!  I brought in the design, which was simple, not too much detail, but perfect for what I was wanting.  I didn't think there was any way he could mess it up, and I was so very wrong!  It turned out NOTHING like the design I brought in, and I was so upset... this was my ENGAGEMENT RING, forever to be tattooed on my finger!!  It turned out so badly that Charles told me to give it some time to heal and he would fix it at no charge, but I never went back, there was no way I was going to let him try and fix it, I would rather pay another artist full price just to try and fix up the mess of a tattoo I ended up getting from Charles!!Not only that, but my fiance also brought in a design as well, and Charles said he could "probably do it", but wanted to charge him over $300 for it, and we had already gotten quotes from other shops, the highest being  $150. My fiance ended up going next door to Boundless, where they not only did it for $150, but they didn't "try" to do the design he brought in, the artist did it PERFECTLY!!  They wanted $25 more than Charles to do my ring tattoo, and I wish I would have just paid the higher amount at Boundless, because I would have walked out of there with the engagement ring tattoo that I wanted, not the mess I have now that I have to get fixed!!  I should have stuck with my gut, which was that I should NEVER go to Charles to get work done.I will NEVER return, nor would I EVER recommend Tattoo Warehouse to ANYONE. I wouldn't return even if he offered to do anything I want for free, that is literally how low my opinion of his work is.  For the price I paid, my tattoo SHOULD have been dead on.  So very disappointed, especially given the fact that I got my tattoo from Charles himself.

After entering Tattoo Warehouse i realized the place was a great environment. They have multiple tv's to not only entertain the customers getting tattoos but to entertain anyone else who shows up to watch.  The customer service is exceptional. All 3 employees who were present when we arrived were extremely friendly and personable which combines for a fantastic environment. A very fun and entertaining place to be at if you're getting a tattoo or just watching. We showed up at the Tattoo Warehouse on a sunday night at 10:03 after calling them before and letting them know we would be late. Having such exceptional customer service they still invited us and asked us to check out they're beautiful work. All 3 customers left feeling welcomed and satisfied with the customer service and work of the tattoo artists expressed. I will be spreading the word about this establishment and coming here again.

Literally one of the worst places I've ever been too. Not only did they never respond to my phone calls after I put down a size able deposit, but when I went in to see what the deal was they "lost my artwork/sketches and any notes of my concept".

They were all so quiet, and didn't want to make any conversation I had a lot of questions on the piercing, and they didn't seem very interested. The work was nicely done, and I've seen there profolies for tattoo's they look descent. It wasn't the shop for me, and everyone has a different expierience.
