My sister & I came to get tattoos. I got mine on my foot & she got hers on her arm. Clark did our tattoos & they look amazing. It was my sisters first tattoo so she was a little nervous but he made her feel very comfortable. We both have gotten so many compliments on how perfect & precise the lines on the Roman numerals are. They were a little pricey (nothing extreme) but you definitely get what you pay for. Clark is very talented & I would highly recommend him to anyone Read Less

I will never go here again. If I was able to give this "business" 0 stars, I would. I was recommended by a friend and even yelled at him for recommending me. The guy who tattooed me had supposedly been tattooing for 20+ years. His name is Clark.       I showed him a picture of exactly what I wanted and he talked me into getting black line work around the original piece so it would look "tighter". Not only was the artist not talkitive and just giving me the cold shoulder the whole time he was working on my arm, he decided to stop working on me, got up and helped another client while I was still in the chair.       The piece I got was simple and straight forward, not too big either. He charged me $250 dollars for it. I decided that I really wanted it done so I did it anyway. After everything was said and done, I tipped the guy 20 dollars just because I respect the profession of being an artist.      With that said, I got home from work the next day to put more protectant on it when I noticed that the lines in the work were shakey. After looking more closesly, there was a line scribbled thru several of the circles on the piece. On multiple spots, there were lines that didn't meet and points that were rounded off instead of to a point. The red shading/fill (which was basically the whole tattoo) was bochey and poorly done.     When approaching the artist about the issues on the tattoo, (that I now have on my body for the rest of my life...) He had me send him pictures after saying he didn't know what I was talking about.. He simply just blamed me for moving...BLAMED ME. His exact wording was-- "oh yeah, that's when you moved."     ....So you didn't bother to tell the customer that he SUPPOSEDLY moved when he was in your chair..for almost an hour AND you let the customer tip you $20 after knowing you screwed up?!?  I can understand if I moved once or twice but with the amount of mess ups and lack of professionalism... this clearly wasn't a issue of me moving and more so him just being a below subpar artist.      I had to call the shop to speak the shop owner who basically told me that he could fix it after I asked for a refund. (And as we all know that it is nearly impossible to cover up a fresh black line that went over color.)      He offered to make the black lines THICKER. You know, the black line work that I was basically suckered into getting? (THE BLACK OUTLINE THAT I DIDNT EVEN ORGINALLY WANT.) This was to hide the mistakes done by a SEASONED ARTIST. And the other option was to color the outside of the tattoo red as well.... NO. This isn't what the piece called for and now you're just adding on to a tattoo that should have been done right THE FIRST TIME.     I asked for a refund again, mainly because the lack of professionalism that was displayed and the fact that the tattoo artist completely messed up my arm and excepted a 20 dollar tip when he knew that he messed up.      The shop owner, Bobby then said "Well why would I refund you when I offered to fix it?" ARE YOU KIDDING??      After this experience, I wouldn't trust you or the Artist to touch me. You don't respect your customers, you don't care that there was a blatant disregard for the customers feelings and The work ethic of the artist that works for you is below standard.     The piece is complete trash and I'll be sure to share this on all social media with pictures to match.

I set an appt with Ashley. I showed up on time for the appointment. She wasn't ready. I was told to come back in two hours, when I came back, again on time, she was not there. I waited 20 minutes and left. She is a good enough artist but clearly it is an unprofessional shop and I take my tattoos seriously and need an artist to take my tattoos seriously too. Being new to the area I heard good things but will be seeking out another shop of which there are plenty. Read Less

I was trying to get my bottom lip pierced and nobody was open... So I went here. So he marked the spot where he was going to pierce and didn't even ask me if it was ok or do I want it higher.... He just pierced away without asking...so after it was done like 4mins later I noticed that he pierced the lower corner..so I'm left with a piercing close to my cheek and a huge bar after a week it wasn't healing right so I went to another place and they told me he botched it! So they have me a smaller bar instead of metal they changed it to plastic it helps with the healing faster! So all in all thanks BOB! It wasn't even like he was busy I was the only one in there interrupting his lunch. My advice go to juicy fruits tats and peircings Read Less
