Not only is Nancy is an incredible artist, she's very professional and personable which made my 4 hour session go so fast! She took my vision and really brought it to life and I couldn't be more in love with my tattoo. It is absolutely perfect, and I still can't believe it's on me! I will definitely be back for more work from her. Read Less

Went in because my sister knows the guy who I believe owns the shop. He was running a Valentine's day special. My sister and I got a little matching heart tattoo. This place was clean, staff was friendly, and we loved our little tattoo. I would definitely go back for more work. In fact, my sister went back a few days later for another piece on her arm.

Simply put Hot Rod Inkin is second to none in the industry. Professional all the way, very friendly and the shop is immaculate. I have had three tattoos, one with Rich, one with Zach and yesterday with Nancy and I am never disappointed. My previous four tattoos from different parlors were good but there is no comparison.

I have been looking for years for someone to do my half sleeve. Went in for something else and spoke with Rich. He started to sketch it out. I knew he was the guy and made my appointment. One more sitting and it's done. His attention to detail is outstanding. His apprentice Zack is also a great artist. You won't be disappointed. Read Less
