Great studio! This was my first time here, recommended from a friend who also was in attendance and had some more work added to her existing tattoo. On street parking, but not on Hubbell, you'll actually park behind the shop, on Grandview Ave. parallel parking. Very high curb, don't get too close or your passenger will ding the crap out of the vehicle door. I climbed over the seat. I'm not reliving my friends parallel parking. Nice parlor, clean, bright, well decorated. It feels very warm and Megan is amazing. I have NEVER laughed so hard while getting a tattoo! I've been to a lot of shops, I have a lot of tattoos. I know for a fact, I will never go to any other artist again. She's knowledgeable, outgoing and extremely talented. Obviously we need her to be talented! I'm not just going by my tattoo alone, chatting with her, her photos and all of my friends' tattoos are just gorgeous (or badass). I'm calling on Tuesday to make my next appointment for me and my daughter at the end of the month!

Chad is amazing! I am a repeat customer of his and he never disappoints! In fact, I live in Minneapolis and come down to Des Moines specifically so Chad can tattoo me. I explained to him what I wanted and he drew it up even better than I had pictured in my own head. My most recent tattoo he did for me has a deep, personal meaning behind it, so it made it even more special to me to see it on paper and then on my skin. He listens to my needs, he makes sure I'm completely happy with everything, and he does an excellent job explaining what he's doing throughout the process and also gave a lot of very useful information on aftercare. I've recommended him to everyone I know who wants a tattoo. I'm completely in love with his work and my new tattoo! Can't wait for the next one. Thanks again Chad!

Megan was awesome. She did my first tattoo and I was really nervous because I don't like pain or needles. She was very patient and made sure I was OK through the whole process. Telling me what she was doing before she did it. I even went back for a second and am going to get two more.

Great studio! This was my first time here, recommended from a friend who also was in attendance and had some more work added to her existing tattoo. On street parking, but not on Hubbell, you'll actually park behind the shop, on Grandview Ave. parallel parking.
