The guy who was on the couch quoted me $40 for a specific piece and the first artist we talked to was so rude and told us he would not be able to do it on the specific spot I wanted. Okay, fine. He proceeds and then quotes me $120 and I say no way I'm out of here. Then reluctantly anther artist comes in and says he can do it on the spot I want and we start on the drawing and what not (the tattoo I wanted was about the size of a quarter and it's only lone work no shading). He sits me down and starts prepping and says it's going to be $80. And I tell him that I was quoted $40 and then he scoffs and proceeds all angry like. This is the most unprofessional place. The artists are all old and are not with the new style of tattoos. And I NEVER SIGNED ONE SHEET OF PAPER. Read Less

I think that Odyssey Tattoo made me the happiest girl in the world today. I got my first tattoo six months ago and it got badly infected and also was poor workmanship so the tattoo looked awful within a few months. But today, Joe proved what a real artist he is by not only fixing someone else's mistake but making it look 1 million times better!!! Also love the laid-back comfortable atmosphere and friendly employees.Read Less

Shawn is amazing. He redesigned a drawing I brought in to make it just right for my taste. The tattoo came out awesome. Everyone I've shown it to says his work was right on point. His hand was light and I barely felt the needle. I recommend him to everyone. I will be seeing him again for my next one. Thank you Shawn!!! Read Less

I had an amazing experience from Shawn. He is an amazing tattoo artist. He was able to revive a tattoo I had for 11 years and also made an incredible addition. I went in there with a vague idea of what I wanted and Shawn nailed it better then I could picture it. What's even more amazing is that he free hand the whole thing in sharpie. The final result was better then I could have imagined. I got a beautiful piece of art and was able to honor my parents at the same time. I will be coming back again in the future. Read Less

Bearclaw (Bobby) and the guys at Odessey - Eric, Sean, Joe, Gunny, and Lee - are the only guys I trust for my ink therapy. Bobby does all my work and all my kids' work, but I absolutely recommend all the guys to my friends and family. I've been getting my ink for over 22 years and in my opinion, they're the best and the only shop I will go to for my artwork. Read Less

Never in my wildest nightmares could I have imagined such a negative tattoo experience. For starters, I've never stepped foot into such a filthy building in my life. The couches were literally repulsive and the room reeked of cigarettes and weed. While this sent up a serious red flag, I was willing to give these cats a chance. After consulting with my "artist," he assured me that my piece was the easiest he had ever been asked to tattoo. With a sense of reassurance, I laid down on the table and let homeboy go to work. Over the course of the next hour, I went through indescribable pain. I have other tattoos. I've broken bones. I've torn ligaments. This tattoo hurt much, much worse. By the time it was finished, the skin surrounding my tattoo was purple, swollen, and speckled with pockets of blood under the outermost layer. I waited for weeks and weeks and months for my tattoo to heal properly. It never did. Discouraged, I went to a TRUSTED local shop and showed them his work. Every artist there was horrified. I was told that the quality of the tattoo was reflective of a tattoo apprentice at best. Now, nearly three years and hundreds of dollars later, I've tried my best to get my odyssey tattoo fixed. I am truly mortified by what this shop did to my arm. Marines and civilians alike, please, please stay out of this tattoo shop. You'll be glad you did. Read Less
