The negative reviews are right. They do not acknowledge you even when you have an appointment, not ONE WORD after standing around patiently for 30 minutes. The artwork didn't look appealing either. Don't waste your time, there's a reason they had availability same day on a weekend. Read Less

I've never been tattooed here, so I can't speak for their tattoo artists, but I got my nose pierced here about a year ago by Byriah and the whole experience was awesome! He is very meticulous when it comes to cleanliness, and explains exactly how to keep your piercing clean. He is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. I've come here twice after because my nose ring had come out and I couldn't get it back in, and Byriah was able to get it back by threading some fishing line through it easily. Any more piercings I get in the future will definitely be done by him. Read Less

Took my sister here for her first tattoo. Was so impressed with the place and with Mr Vick that I immediately scheduled a session for myself. Beautiful, art-galleryesque interior, clean, and careful and attentive work by Mr Vick. Can't wait to go back for my own ink.Read Less

Yesterday I went with my daughter to get my first tattoo.  I waited 5 and a half years to hear the words 'you can put your Cancer behind you' Lindsey listened to what I was looking for. Respected the fact I didn't want the cliche pink ribbon stuff. He designed my tattoo with all of my wishes in mind. I cried when I saw the finished piece. It exceeded my expectations.Thank you Lindsey. You're an amazing artist and a gifted, caring and thoughtful man. Read Less

Lindsey Johnson is a phenomenal tattoo artist!! I was referred here by my fiancé and many friends who have gotten beautiful pieces done by Lindsey. After a thorough consultation and letting him know what I wanted and what I did not want we scheduled an appointment. Fast foreword... I got my tattoo done 3 days ago and I am ecstatic!!! No. Only am I obsessed with my beautiful custom piece but with the overall experience as well. Lindsey made me very comfortable as we were getting ready, asking me if there was music or a movie I would like to watch to keep me occupied as he tattooed. He stopped working to talk to a few walk ins, totally fine by me as it gave me a moment to stretch! Three hours later I had this BEAUTIFUL piece on my forearm.Ultimately, I highly recommend Beyond The Ink Tattoo and more particularly Lindsey Johnson for any custom piece. After the one piece on my forearm I am itching for another already! I can't stop staring and obsessing about how beautiful it is! Thank you very much Lindsey! I would also like to add that it is healing beautifully (got it Sunday, it is now Tuesday)!** 9 months later** not only am I still super obsessed with this beautiful piece as I was when it was first done, I get complements on it DAILY. Thank you so much Lindsey for you patience, attention to detail, extreme professionalism and amazing work!! Read Less

I got my first tattoo here in June 2010 with three other girls who were also getting tattoos. Honestly, we had no idea what we were doing. We were recommended to this shop so we went. From the first time we walked in to set up an appointment (we could have gotten one the same day but wanted to do it a specific evening) to the night of the appointment, the environment was immaculate and relaxed. It was more like an art gallery than tattoo shops I have seen. Lindsey and Justin were incredibly helpful in discussing designs, placement, and colors. They were both easy-going, not intimidating, and made the whole experience very positive. Everything was very organized and sanitary, and even better, my tattoo barely hurt. Five stars and I would highly recommend to my friends and go back. All of our tattoos turned out great.Read Less
