These guys posted a chair for sale on line. I made an offer and agreed to pick it up the next day. Ninety minutes before I am scheduled to arrive, after I picked up money and adjusted my work schedule, these fine upstanding business owners send me a message telling me they sold it to someone else. Apparently integrity isn't a thing at Electric Tattoo. Read Less

I've been going to Nacho for years now and his work is always the same and that's TOP NOTCH!! He is very friendly and easy to work with. You go into the tattoo feeling comfortable and relaxed. He will always help you out with pointers and ideas to make your tattoo exactly how you want it. From his black and grey work to his color work, he does it all. He's done my arms, legs, hands, chest, stomach, ribs and not to mention my full back piece which won 1st place in the Coney Island Tattoo & Car Show! You won't know the experience until you get a tattoo from him so make sure you get inked up by NACHO! Read Less
