He really doesn’t even deserve a 1 star. Ryan is completely unprofessional- from career to personal. He started working on a full sleeve for me back in May of 2017- in the process I paid him over 4 grand - not counting tips in full up front because he promised me he would finish my arm in a timely manner. After him canceling on me maybe 20 times I just about lost it. I was literally on my way from Columbus to him- which is a 3 hour drive maybe more and he told me he was c...anceling again. I’m now in the process of getting my arm worked on from a great artist. My arm looks like complete shit. The trash he did do -he should be ashamed of. Ryan was a great artiest at one point in time- I’ve seen his work - and that’s why I selected him, in great faith he would come through and perform his artistic skills on my arm. I would never recommend him to anyone. If I ever come to Indiana again - I’ll hire a attorney to sue him. My attorney from Columbus can’t touch him because he is there. Thank you Ryan - for Ruining my arm- and taking my money. Your the real mvp. Ha. See More

It's been almost 2 years since I had my first ever tat done by Ryan. My rib piece is extremely faded and looks badly put together regardless of the fact that he didn't incorporate hardly ANY of my ideas we had talked about before he started marking on my body. It was supposed to be a memorial tattoo of someone I lost to cancer. $300 down the drain and a painful memory on my body forever that looks like a newbie inked it. I'm just now reviewing this shop because Im having it fixed by a real artist who will help me commemorate the loss of a loved one.
Oh and my mom had hers done the same day and she just had hers covered too if that say's anything..

Be cautious getting your work done. Ryan failed on doing the work that I pictured on how it's to be done and interesting enough when someone came to the studio asking if he does realism; he and front desk guy laughed later about if he did realism. If I had known if that's the personality he and studio is then I wouldn't have done it.

Ryan touched up a tattoo for me recently and I'm absolutely in love with it. The detail is incredible, and it now looks like what I had originally wanted. Ryan is meticulous in his work and the results truly stand out because of it. My fiancé wants a sleeve and chest piece done soon and Ryan is definitely our choice of artist. Thank you again Ryan. I can't wait to show my tattoo off on my wedding day!

I had Bryce Moodie as my artist. I wanted a very small tattoo 1 1/2 inch by 1 inch of the cross of the religious order I belong too. Bryce scanned the actual cross. He nailed the tattoo! The lines are crisp and straight. The tattoo require no special aftercare, just what he recommended and it healed up beautifully. I am saving up my money for my next Bryce Moodie tattoo!!!

Ryan has tattooed my entire right arm so I have spent many hours in his shop. He has always been very professional and he is an amazing artist. Ryan has the ability to take any concept and turn it into an exceptional and artistic interpretation of what you want. He has the ability and experience to execute anything you could ask for. I highly recommend Ryan Hadley studios and any artist working there.

I have a Full sleeve and a back piece done by Ryan and I could not have made a better decision. He is an amazing artist and a great guy too boot. He has the uncanny ability to bring your ideas to life with some incredible detail. Ryan's shop has a great atmosphere. He is surrounded by original artwork and great artists. I have spent a lot of time in the shop and have seen Bryce do some awesome work both tattoos and his ability with charcoal is on point. I would recommend this shop to anyone weather your looking to get tattooed or even looking to commission a painting/drawing. I personally can not wait for the next time i get to visit Ryan's shop!

Ryan Hadley has tattooed a good percentage of my body always producing quality artwork. He is self taught artist in many forms not just tattooing making him versatile in many mediums and styles being able to come up with any kind of design you are looking for. The shop has a great atmosphere and is always clean and sterile. He is sponsored by tat soul, eternal ink, neo tat and many more giving you the assurance that the best materials and tools are used at all times. Setting up an appointment with him is worry free as his shop manager is quick to respond to emails as well as working around your personal schedule. I highly recommend Ryan for your first or next tattoo.
