Aaron is a tool. He's young, inexperienced, arrogant, and pretty much a douchebag. He's got talent - he can draw, but he needs to realize he's in customer service. And his service sucks. His prices are stupid!!!! I've been getting ink from professional shops in cal & nv for decades, this punk has some growing up to do. Read Less

Three of us went to Desire Ink hoping for same day tattoos. Jared was able to see all of us in the afternoon. I had a picture of what I wanted and Jared did an amazing job of turning it into a work of art on my body. In my opinion, the tattoo is even better than the picture. Also, as a nurse I found his attention to detail and cleanliness very reassuring. Would definitely highly recommend the business and Jared in particular. Read Less

Yesterday I got two tattoos done by Jared. One was just a few words the other a picture. He originally thought it would take about 1 3/4 hours but it only took 1 hour. So it came out cheaper! He put the stencil on my wrist on 3 times until he felt it was centered. Read Less

I love tattoo's however I was nervous about getting another after 12 years. Jared was great. He was calm, honest, and friendly and he is a great artist. I just wanted something small and he didn't scoff or put down the idea. Jared worked with me talking through the decisions that needed to be made and then did the work quickly.  If I get more... which probably will happen... I will definitely go back! Read Less

These guys are all amazing artists but I got my work done by Trevor and he's amazing. Very good work and he actually talks to you so it's not awkwardly silent the whole time. 👍🏻👍🏻

I love that everyone has such amazing talent and skill. Just about everyone in my family gets their work done here. I've gotten 4 tats from 2 of the artists and I have plans for more. The shop is clean and well organized. The artists follow all requirements for sterilization and they provide excellent after care instruction. I've recommended Desire to a number of friends and they have all been beyond happy with their experience. Every one of their artists are well worth their free. If you want a tattoo experience that exceeds your expectations, this is most definitely the place to go. Read Less

Aaron is AMAZING. I spent quite a while Facebook stalking his work (Tattoos by Aaron Carey) before I took the plunge into a wrist/forearm tattoo. After a couple months of continually being impressed, I made my appt. The shop is clean and bright, not creepy or sketchy like others I've seen.My first tattoo in 10 years, so I was a little nervous. He was quick, but did quality work. And he is now "my guy" forever. He is booked out a ways in advance because he's so good, but I am SUPER STOKED to go see him in June for another piece that I am asking him to put together for me.BTW... A coworker had joined me for my wrist tattoo experience because she was curious and wanted a few herself. So far I'm pretty sure she has returned to have 3 done, and is scheduling her 4th.
