I went with a friend to get her tattoo, but the man who did the work was in a rush.. They do take walkins, however, I would suggest going earlier. The tattoo was not the one that she had wanted; he said he couldn't pair the picture with the words she wanted with it, but it was more of a time thing. He really could have placed the words with the tattoo. We waited 2 hours, which was fine and understandable, but the tattoo artist was in such a rush, he quickly sketched what she wanted, without the words... it was crooked and badly done.. and the tattooing took all of ten minutes when they were closing in an hour. I do think they have good ink when they have time.. so like most places I would suggest make an appointment, and know what you want so they have time to sketch it. I realized after the fact too, that he had not told her about how to take care of her tattoo..it was her first. We have been helping her with that, but I think every tattoo parlor should go over the care list with clients..
It's a bit irresponsible.

I've had company from out of town come here just to see Shawn because his work is great. He always takes time to help with design and placement. His shop is one of the most comfortable environments and everyone's attitudes are great. I would highly recommend forged tattoo. But all you really have to do is look at his work and judge for yourself.

Made an appointment a week in advance. Drove 9 hours for the weekend and planned my day around the appointment. Sent me a message on Facebook telling me they had to cancel about an hour before my appointment but could reschedule the next day. We were leaving the next day. Went elsewhere and have been back there multiple times!

Very disappointed. I got a very small heart tattoo that was filled with black. However after it healed, which was very quickly by the way, the fill of the tat was mottled and you could see through it. I called Shawn to tell him that my tat wasn't filled in and asked if he'd rushed through it or if my skin could have rejected the ink--just trying to problem solve. I was bothered by the quality of it and wanted him to know that my 1/2" tattoo was see through. He got all huffy, said he'd touch it up and wasn't going to argue with me, then hung up on me.
I now have a brand new tattoo that I have to fill in with eyeliner. Boo!
I haven't felt this disrespected and ripped off in a long time.
