This May I got my first ever tattoo done here at Ink City Tattoo, was tattooed by Jason Buckholtz and it was a wonderful experience through and through! Making an appointment was easy and they were very welcoming at the shop. When I went on the day of my appointment I was stoked with the design Jason drew up as it was everything I wanted!The shop itself is beautiful, clean, and I was made to feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. Once we were done I was given clear but thorough aftercare instructions for healing my tattoo which I followed to a tee and it gave me the best results! My tattoo healed perfectly and looks super badass.I was justifiably anxious for my first tattoo but thanks to this amazing shop, my first tattoo experience was five stars! I’m so ready for my next sick tatt. I highly recommend coming to this shop, I know I already have my next appointment made, See you soon!
On August 28, 2024 I went in to get a tattoo by Jason Buckholtz. The shop itself was clean and I immediately felt comfortable as Jason was welcoming. He had worked out my design in a way that was going to work better and made all the adjustments I requested. He is a perfectionist and spent a lot of time making sure the color was perfect. The tattoo came out better than I expected and I have already scheduled my next appointment for part two of the design.
First thing I noticed about the studio was cleanliness. Very professional, kind, patient. I can’t wait to continue working with Jason on my future tattoos. Highly recommend.
We loved getting our tattoos back in 2015. They still look amazing in 2024, 9 years later!! Cant wait to get more.
I came in as a walk in for a flash piece, and enjoyed every minute of being there. The shop is a dad and his sons, which was so unique to listen and learn about! Aaron did my tattoo, and was respectful during the whole process! Nothing but kind words to say about this shop. I would definitely recommend booking an appointment instead of walk-ins; but it just timed out perfectly.
My first time going to this shop and I was very pleased. The shop was very clean lots of art covering the wall. Best of all were the people. A Father and two sons runs the shop and they were great. Very nice and polite and do awesome work. This is my shop from now on.
Great artists. Im so happy with my cover up! Thank you Samson. This is 3 months after and I am absolutely head over heels in love with it. Cant wait to get the rest of my family chest piece done.
Ink city is hands down the best old school traditional shop (my opinion) the shop is ran and owned by Jason he has a couple of different artists along with him he has his two sons Aaron and sam and another artist Matt they all are exceptional at what they do they are true artist. My whole family goes to them and we have never been dissatisfied about there work. They accept walk-ins and also by appointment they are a cash only shop so make sure to bring cash. They also have gift cards that are good for a year from when purchased. So go in there and gets some fresh ink.
Friendly staff. Family business. Extremely well-kept studio. I got an extremely nice tat. Good color and lines are perfect. Mine was pretty basic, so I cant comment on a more advanced design, but they are well experienced, so it shouldnt be problem.
I cannot wait to come back here, just got my favorite tattoo done by Sam yesterday. He took his time making sure everything was perfect and it was an awesome experience and I cannot wait to come back for another one! 🖤
This place is awesome they do really really great tattoos awesome customer service very friendly and very helpful with deciding what would look great
They are AMAZING! They KNOW exactly what you want and it comes out way better!! They make you feel right at home and love having a conversation. 🥰 AMAZING! 🤩🥰 5 stars ALL THE WAY!! 💯🤘
This place is absolutely amazing. I walked in looking for a price quote and an appointment set up. They gave me an absolutely affordable price quote and were able to fit me in immediately. When I thought I was leaving with a future appointment date, I left with my tattoo done and it looked exactly how I wanted it to. And this all happened in half an hour. They were really pleasant people to be around and gave me what I wanted quickly but with amazing quality. I can promise that I will be coming back and I already have people that want to go to them for their tattoos even though they live completely out of their way and could find a much closer place to where they live.
As soon as I walked in I was greeted and immediately felt welcomed! Everyone was very friendly and upbeat! I was scheduled to have my septum pierced by Jessica and she is absolutely AMAZING! I came to Jessica after having a bad experience the day before. Jessica made sure I was good to go and was so gentle! I was so impressed by her calm demeanor, professionalism, technique,realness, and her sincerity. I highly recommend Jessica for all your piercing needs! She’s really AWESOME!!
Ive been going to Aaron for almost 5 years. He has always created amazing pieces and Ive never walked out disappointed.Theyre all very professional and create an environment thats fun and relaxed.Clean shop and beautiful work. Im very glad I walked in their door. 🙂
Came in as a walk in today and came out loving my new tattoo. Samson was my artist and I will definitely be coming back to him. He was so kind and very professional. You could tell he wants everything to be perfect and cares about making sure youre happy. Not my first tattoo but my first time here and I will not be going anywhere else. What a great experience....Thanks for a great tattoo Samson!!
This is an awsome tattoo shop, the folks are friendly, clean, amd they do great work. I will be comming back here for my tattoos.
Yesterday was a day Ive waiting for. I got an amazing tattoo. Jason was amazing, from his chair side manner, to amazing tattoo work. The studio was as clean as comfy. I highly recommend INK CITY TATTOO for your next art project.
Jason did my first tattoo, after my best friend passed away. Her family invited me to share a tattoo of her handwriting. I am very happy with the work he did, and I look forward to having more done. Their studio is very clean and they follow all safety regulations. I recommend Ink City to anyone and everyone.
Amazing family, quality work, been going for years now
DONT GO! Pricing changed without me knowing until after the tattoo was completed. I asked for communication during and the artist was silent. Wouldnt recommend or go back.Also, if you look at the bad reviews they got, no one from the company responds. They only do to good ones. Thats not good. You should reply to all reviews.People remember bad reviews more than good. You had two people that arent happy who have social media.
Aaron is the bees knees, very impressed with his work and eye for color. Cant wait to finish my leg work with him. I Highly recommend anyone here 👌🏻
Ive never been to Ink City but I know Travis Stanley from when he inked my half-sleeve while working at Bulldog. I traveled from Miami a couple of times to visit family and ended up leaving with artwork that draws comments and appreciation years later. Great artist, very cool, easy to relate with and communicate ideas to. Highly recommend any shop where Travis is working.
I was extremely happy with the design and quality that Jason did on my tattoo.It’s nice knowing you can give Jason your ideas of what you would like and for him to draw something amazing.Just had my 4th tattoo done at Ink City and can’t wait for my next tattoo! It’s a great place to have a tattoo done.Can’t say enough for how good the atmosphere and cleanliness of the establishment.
Did a wonderful job would recommend got me in the day before Christmas last year 🤙
Very clean and amazing hygiene practices. Matt was awesome. Went in as a walk-in while on a road trip. Showed a quick reference pic, then went to grab cash. Came back to a perfect mockup with his own twist. The tattoo came out beautiful. I will be back, and I live 4 hours away.
Ink City Tattoo Studio is a great place to get tattooed. I have received 5 amazing tattoos from Aaron. He has taken my vague ideas and transformed them into beautiful art pieces. One was even a cover up of an awful early 90s tribal piece and you can not even see it was ever there. If you are looking for top-notch service from a great artist, go see Aaron Buckholtz at Ink City Tattoo Studio
I cant say enough good things about Jason. I was referred to him by a friend and am so happy with my choice. These guys are true professionals and stellar artists. I wont go anywhere else. Ever.
Very cocky, and overpriced as they stated coloring in a previous tattoo would be 150$ just for touching up lines, and filling in the black. Unprofessional as they were calling a client after speaking of said client poorly because they left gum on their seat (apparently they couldnt clean it), and left a very aggressive voicemail to the client infront of three potentional clients such as myself, and my guest. Continued to tell us how it should be a lesson to us to get tattoos with them instead of our previous place for said tattoo, saying its our fault and now we have to pay THEM 150$ to get it fixed. Instead of making us comfortable, and trying to direct us to one of their artists in particular that could do better work. When i first came in the day before, they said it would probably be 80$. My boyfriend, and i have the SAME EXACT TATTOO. They priced his tattoo for 150! When they told me it would be 80 or a little bit more for mine. Its the exact same thing. Ive never been in a shop, and felt such negativity. They didnt really point me to anyone, they just implied that it didnt matter what artist we went with. Saying anybody could do it. Very cocky, and not very helpful. They do have good work but they are strictly traditional (not very open to any other styles).I would have probably considered but their attitudes just really turned me off of the idea of getting a tattoo by them. Didnt feel comfortable at all. Sorry for the bad review guys but yall should know better that having good work doesnt mean you should be overly cocky, and rude to new clients. Very disappointed in my second visit. My point is, you should always feel confident, and comfortable when coming into a tattoo shop.
They come highly recommend from a friend. Called and enquired about a appointment. We went over the process on coming in and talking about what you want done. Very nice and friendly. We will be stopping in soon to set the ball in motion
Best tattoo experience that Ive ever had! Jason is very skilled and professional, and his boys are very friendly and professional. Highly recommend to any tattoo lover!
It is extremely disappointing when you call to make an appointment on your anniversary to get tattooed wedding rings with your spouse and your told nope we dont do that, then were told sorry we are booked up. I know many people with hand and finger tattoos, I have 7 tattoos myself, my husband has 3. I am also extremely disappointed because I have had other family members have work done at this shop. We will never go here for any kind of work.
Jessica switched out my daith piercing and did a great job. The shop was really clean and it was super quick.
Most of my work has been done here.The guys a chatty. Aaron has been the one that does my work. He is Great! Thanks for making my body pretty Aaron!
Best artist in the area. The Buckholtz family is filled with stellar individuals that provide the best work for each individual client.Proud to display artwork by anyone in this shop
The people here are very nice and were very willing to help....Mat did a battlefield cross for me and it exceeded my expectations a million fold. I hadnt had a tattoo in 30 years but my next one wont be another 30 years....do yourself a favor if you expect your money to go farther at a place that truly appreciates your patronage...INK CITY TATTOOS!! FIND IT
Got tattooed today by Travis and had an awesome experience. The shop is super clean, everyone was very nice and the work done was great. Happy to recommend this shop to others in the area.
I’ve been many times to see Jessica for my piercings. Sweet person and I can trust her to give me the best knowledge there is. My nest appointment will be for a industrial piercing. Thank you Jessica.
My girl was very pleased with the whole experience. Very friendly and nice work!
Aaron did a Seattle Skyline Tattoo for me, and it is perfect!!! It is exactly what I wanted, and he did it quickly and he was so friendly too! I would reccomend this shop, and Aaron to anyone!
Popped in with a few friends and was able to get a gorgeous anchor tattoo! Aaron did a fantastic job and Ill be going back to see him for more work in the near future!
So far so good. 👍 Just set an appt.
Bought a gift certificate for my boyfriend, Aaron did an amazing, clean and colorful piece in a timely manner. Will be back for my own soon!
Had my three kids portraits done on my back. Jason did them and they turned out great! Thank you very much Jason!
Just had a tattoo done by Aaron and it turned out great. He made me feel very comfortable and I will be returning for him to do another one.
Not pleased with this place. Went in to ask a few questions about my tattoo and was considered RUDE. Artist pushed to hard and tattoo didnt come out like it should have and healing process wasnt very good. They were very cocky when i asked my questions and just pushed off the fact that i was an unsatisfied customer.
Great shop - you want good quality tattoos go see Jason and sons ! Tattoos are for life you want the best - go to Ink city.
Great Piercer! She was professional and committed to giving me what I wanted. I was happy with outcome and will be back soon for more.Thanks !
