There are way better places in the area!  Way over priced for the what you get.  Would be a great place to get a doodle tattoo if it wasn't so expensive.   Way over priced.  I would never go back.  Good luck if you do. Read Less

DO NOT GO HERE!! Customer service is awful and owner and employees are unprofessional. They don't not spend a waking second trying to help you find the best tattoo. Just hurry up and tell them what you want so they can make you feel rushed the entire time and then kick you out the door to collect the nexts customers money. The owners work is the worst I've had. The only tattoo I got from him is still relatively new and it's already fading and blending and its turning into crap. I absolutely cannot wait to get his garbage work off of me and covered up by another artist far far away from this dump. Tattoos are a life investment so if you want sloppy work that you will regret then check this place out. Otherwise, if you want a tattoo you're gunna enjoy forever, please go anywhere else but here!

My husband and I walked into Red Anchor Tattoo Co. with specific tattoo ideas in mind. We did not have appointments but were greeted by Chris, the owner, who was friendly and helpful. The shop was nice and really clean. The artist, Bill Crawford, got us back right away, was very friendly, knowledgeable and did an AMAZING job. You can tell that he's experienced and really knows what he's doing. We couldn't be more pleased with the way our tattoos turned out and can't say enough positive things about Bill. I HIGHLY recommend Red Anchor as a shop and Bill as an artist. Read Less

Did a walk in while hanging out in downtown Plymouth with my wife. We both ended up getting tattoos from Ben. The shop was clean and Ben was super friendly. Ben sketched up a really cool tattoo based off my idea and it turned out great. It's been almost a week and everything is healing up really nice. Read Less

In disbelief that this place is still in business after the continuous missed appointments and extremely poor customer service. They want you in and out of the shop and definitely don't ask for a sketch to be modified.. after all it's their tattoo right?? Highly DO NOT recommend this business. Read Less

The Original Downtown Plymouth tattoo shop. Whether you're a first time dolphin-yin-yang or a salty old chest anchor, these folks do it right. God Bless Chris Guinan and the Red Anchor Tattoo staff. We'll definitely be repeat customers. Read Less

One of the best shops around right now that delivers nothing but satisfactory work. If you're looking for a traditional or Neo traditional tattoo with some unique character and boldness see Ben Pete. This Kid has got talent. He Really listens to what the customer wants and is always very open to any Idea. GO CHECK IT OUT. SIT DOWN. AND SHUT UP. Read Less

Just went down for a piece under my chest that i have been wanting for a while. I have never been more happy with a tattoo than this one. Bill crawford did an amazing job and its a nice environment to be in. Would highly recommend getting your work done there! Read Less

Red Anchor is a great shop with talented artist. I came in with an idea and within a day Ben was able to draw something up that was exactly what I wanted. There was no problem scheduling an appointment and the two guys (Ben & Chris) I met were friendly and knowledgeable. Their shop had a cool atmosphere and was clean. The price seemed very reasonable. People forget that they're artist and they are creating something for you that will last forever. If you expect a cheap discount price, then you're going to get a cheap tattoo that doesn't look good. I'm very happy with how my tattoo turned out. Regardless of what some reviews say, I find it hard to believe that the staff was arrogant or rude. I've already referred Red Anchor to multiple people and I will continue to do so. Read Less

I had a piercing done by Amber today, and what a wonderful experience! I was very nervous as I am a complete wimp, and have been trying to build the courage to get the "migraine piercing" for some time. Amber with her wonderful bed side manner, talked me through the whole experience in such an easy and calming way it made me feel brave and secure with what was about to happen, the startling birth of my piercing. I walked out stunned, but happy that I chose this place and this person for this experience. Read Less

I have gotten many tattoos from Chris over the years and it's always a fun time. He does great work that holds up over time.  I have recommended many friends and family who want tattoos to come here. It's the only place I go anymore Read Less

Found the place via pop up ad in my brother's Facebook feed. Glad we did! The shop was clean, well laid out and extremely inviting. My $80 tattoo special was a bargain, Ben did outstanding work. I will definitely be going back again! Read Less

I went in to this shop wanting to talk with someone about my idea for a new tattoo. I left wanting to never come back to this place again because I felt so offended by his reaction to a tattoo that I already had. He made fun of my already existing tattoo that actually holds a deep personal meaning to me. I'm sorry not all of us want what you consider to be a worthwhile or good tattoo. Who made you the decider of such things??????? I thought as a tattoo artist, nay, as a person, one should respect the feelings of other people. Needless to say, you will probably be happy if you go in there and they like your other tattoos. If not, you will probably end up feeling like I did. Read Less

I have had tattoos and piercings done by Chris and tattoos done by Alex. All of the tattoos are excellent, high caliber work and I am very happy with them. Both artists are highly professional and talented. The shop is very clean and comfortable. There's plenty of flash to choose from, but theses guys really excel at custom work. Chris did a large piece on the back of my calf, I gave him one reference picture and said I kinda want it to look like this but better. He drew up 3 different designs, I chose elements from each that I liked, he combined them all into one and it was perfect. Collaborating with your artist instead of dictating to them (especially if you have no tattoo experience) Will make for a much better experience overall for everyone. With Alex, from the time I showed him what I wanted to walking out of the shop with it on my body was less than 2 hours. I let him choose the colors and do his own thing with them and they are awesome. Overall, this place is amazing. Everything you could want in a shop. Professional, helpful, talented, knowledgeable ; they are the total package. Read Less

I actually left without getting a tattoo after becoming uncomfortable with the artist's attitude.To be fair, the artist answered my questions and seemed genuinely committed to only doing tattoos that will hold up and look good in the long run.  He explained how different parts of the body hold the ink better and therefore are more suitable for tattoos.  He also described how the ink gradually spreads and thin lines become thicker over the years.  Very informative.  Now for the negative.  My original idea wouldn't work, so I wanted some advice and suggestions for where else I could get a  small, tasteful tattoo in a subtle, discrete spot.  Instead of helping me brainstorm, I was subjected to the artist's opinions - things like "why would you want a tattoo you can't see?" and "you shouldn't care what other people think, just get it wherever you want."  If he weren't so busy making assumptions and sharing his personal philosophy, I could have told him that I wanted that kind of tattoo because it fit with my aesthetic ideal, not that I'm embarrassed.  So I went to Name Brand Tattoo in Ann Arbor where I found someone who was willing to work with me to help me get what I want in a more professional manner.

Walked in for piercings.  Chris was friendly, helpful, professional and funny.  The establishment is very clean.  I got exactly what I wanted.  A local Plymouth guy made a great addition to Downtown Plymouth with this place.  I will go back. Read Less
