I went to Tabby for both of these in the same day and she was amazing! She is so down to earth and easy to work with! She listens to your concerns and does anything you want her to do! The butterfly was my first big tattoo I’ve ever really gotten and she was so understanding and made sure I was okay through the whole process! I highly highly recommend her for all your tattoos needs!! Love her and will definitely be going back!

Tabby is so great! I have 1 completed tattoo from her and 1 that’s still in progress. Everything was amazing. She’s very communicative, replying to messages quickly and asking questions about the design to make sure it’s 100% to your liking. She’s a great artist and has great attention to detail making sure colors, design, shading, everything are good! I love working with her!

Had an absolutely amazing experience, my artist Tabby worked with me on designing the final idea for my tattoo and put so much effort into it and it turned out perfectly. Everyone at the shop had an awesome vibe the whole time made it so much fun to be there and cannot wait until I can go back and get my next piece

Comfortable, clean, with a great view! Came to the shop for a small tattoo and had a great experience with Tabby, who used her expertise to create a gorgeous tattoo. Already thinking about going back for more!

Such a phenomenal shop! I can’t say enough good things about the artists and atmosphere here. The shop is incredibly clean and all the artists are talented, professional, and care deeply about their craft and the happiness of all their patrons. I won’t go anywhere else! If you are thinking about getting a tattoo do yourself a favor and book an appointment here, you will not be disappointed.

Great atmosphere and everybody nice. KP is working on my sleeve right now. He does unbelievable work. 3 other tatto artists were working at the same time, and all the clients were sharing their tattoos and the stories that went with them. Everybody there does awesome work. Highly recommend them.

Apprentice Raeleigh Lucille did a wonderful job on my gecko tattoo. This was my first tattoo experience, and it was excellent. The shop is a bright and clean environment. There are many safety procedures in place to ensure the comfort and health of the clients. I recommend this shop for all of your body art needs.

This review is on behalf of another family member as I havent had services done here personally. This place is a nice relatively low key tattoo shop that has several artists on roster, and while all of them are nice, the work from Travis and Rae is particularly exceptional. While I personally dont have any tattoos, the person Im writing this review on the behalf of has had several pieces done by them and has had a excellent experience each time with them. I might (if I get the guts to) inquire about some small pieces from either of the two, especially since they always check on how your doing and if you need breaks, highly recommended for your first tattoo or 100th!

KP is OUTSTANDING!!! His work is amazing, and his professionalism and how he carries himself is on a level I’ve never seen! He puts his all into his work; he is a stand up dude very polite and very respectful of your time! He had everything ready to go when I arrived there for my session; he got straight to work and didn’t stop for smoke breaks or to check his phone, or any nonsense! He is also very clean and always sanitary actually he keeps the entire shop that way! I would definitely recommend KP to anyone looking to get a tattoo I’ll be going back for many more sessions with him, the guy is straight killing it in the tattoo game!!!

First time visit. Its appointment only. They really listen to what you want to do and do a great job executing that vision. The billing software has a bit of hiccup (otherwise, this wouldve been a 5-star review), but they make it right for you. Overall, it was a great experience. Ill be back for sure.

Great studio, great artist, great work. Absolute professional. KP is good at listening to what you want, coming up with a piece, and being willing to change details based on your vision. I left happy and with a great piece of art.

Kerstan was fantastic. He was ready to go at my scheduled time, knew well what we were doing on my arm (he didn’t just see it as “another” tatto) and had my stencil ready. Never once did he break sterile field, which is super impressive. Breaks were offered but he never needed to stop to smoke or was in any way distracted. He never once touched his phone. I got his full focus, and for that, he’s handling my next piece. First class place.

Kp has been doing my tattoos for a couple years now but I’ve known him longer. Almost all of my tats have been done by him. He has great work and I will always go through him. You can trust him to really put his heart into every piece.
