Heaven Bound Tattoos

Catfish does outstanding work! This is my tattoo after the first all day session to cover my ugly leg scar. I’m blown away! Another all day session to finish the shading and color and this tattoo with be a knock out. Catfish has done all of my tattoos since we have moved to the area in 2018 and I won’t go to any other shop. Heaven Bound is where you need to go if you want a quality tattoo for a good price and great customer service!

Id look else where if the owner isnt available to tattoo. His daughter jacked my arm up and over charged like crazy. $120 for a tattoo the size of a quarter. Wasnt able to pack the color in and just kept trying and chewed my skin up bad. Then tried blasting the already ate up area with white ink. Very rookie amateur tattooing. Its now infected and looks horrible. Mind you Im covered in tattoos and have hours upon hours of getting tattooed in a shop. 1st picture is after leaving heaven bound. 2nd is mid week and the 3rd picture is 7 days later. 4th picture is of the fake tattoo my daughter put on me and I got it tattooed as a prank to make her think the fake tattoos were magic. Lol jokes on me huh. Pain and ugly ink.

I got off work early just to come here today for their flash sale, they had their apprentice do mine and he absolutely killed. I love coming here. 100/10 would recommend!

Absolutely love them! Such amazing artist and people in general! The work they put out is fantastic and I will always hype them up to whoever I come across.

I debated making this review for a while now, Im making this review now because I cant brush off the fact that I still feel ripped off. Id rather people know what theyre getting into before going for their tap out session.If youre wanting to go for a full day I would be mindful of who your artist is. I came in with multiple ideas, including ideas for my entire arm. I was told that my artist wasnt experienced enough to do any of the ideas but one which was a very simple sketchwork style medusa that probably could have been finished in 3 hours or less (I was surprised at this as I expected a more experienced artist for a full day tap out session) but I said okay thats fine, as I had other very simple ideas picked out for other areas of my body so if she finished the work on my arm, I still had plenty of ideas to fill the time of the session, being it was supposed to be 8 hours long. I left after 7 and a half hours with an incomplete tattoo and was met with one of the other artists (owner of the shop?) standing over me as I was gathering my things reiterating I would still have to pay the full price. Again I said that was fine, gave a good tip and went on my way. But some advice, as an older man please dont stand over a 22 year old female that came in your shop solo to insist payment like I was refusing to pay. That was an uncomfortable situation. On top of all of this, my first experience here just wasnt what I expected, the owner/other artists youngest daughter gave me a splitting headache from her tantrums and I felt uncomfortable with the owner/other artist talking badly about two tattoos he had done on two customers prior, saying how stupid they were. By the end of the session I was happy to just be out of there.

Jacob did a great job on my husbands tat! Catfish is an awesome artist and business owner. They listen to you and work with you to get you what youre looking for.

I called last minute and asked if it was possible to get in for a walk-in. Owner said come in about an hour or so. I walked it, went over the two ideas I had. First one he mentioned would have to be an appointment, fine. Second one he was completely down for. His lady even helped find a decent place that fit perfectly near another tattoo I had. I mentioned it was my birthday and he was very accommodating. I could and would see myself coming back for other services from here. Thank you again for piece and generosity I received.

Catfish and Super J are AMAZING! My son & I got matching tattoos and they turned out perfectly!!! This was my son’s first tattoo and Super J took his time to explain the process thoroughly and relax him. Before he was finished with his first tattoo he was already planning his next one. And Catfish busted mine out in record time. Thank you both for a great experience and we can’t wait to come back!!!!!

Went there to get an EAR PERCING and said i had to be 18😂😂🤦‍♀️ like huh? i had my ears periced when i was way younger and know toddlers who have their ears periced

My favorite place for a tattoo. Catfish is great. Funny, artistic, and creative. I have several tattoos by Catfish and will be making an appointment for my fourth tattoo by Catfish very soon.

Great experience! Super friendly father and daughter. They have provided me and my family with great quality service. My cousin and aunt were getting their first tattoos and Catfish was very gentle with them and helped guide them through the process. His daughter did some excellent work for me, I love her style. All in all a wonderful time and left very very satisfied. A big thank you to them! Plus they provide specials which can be very affordable for people with a smaller change purse. A good fit for any budget and any style. Highly recommended!

Im stoked about what Catfish has done for me. The dude crushed it on the two tattoos that I got from him. Highly recommend checking out Heaven Bound and seeing everyone there for your tattoo and piercing needs! I know Ill be back soon for my next addition.

Damn near all my tats are by catfish couldnt picture getting it done anywhere else. Great place to go mans got a talent for tats

HIGHLY RECOMMEND, went in for one of their flash sales, the vibes were amazing, everyone was really nice, and the tattoo came out wonderfully, definitely going back for more!

Heaven Bound is such a chill, fun place to get some amazing Tattoos! The staff are friendly and easy to talk to. Catfish has done four of my tattoos, including a cover-up and is working on a full sleeve for my husband. I highly recommend Heaven Bound!

I got my septum pierced here back in June and it was great! I was in and out and the healing process has been fantastic!!! The actual piercing only took a couple seconds so the pain was totally worth it. I definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants to get their septum done :)))

I got my nose pierced on March 5. I was really afraid because I am on an oxygen mask at night of losing or causing infection my nose ring. Nothing happened it’s still in healing wonderfully. No issues. This place is great. So if anybody needs any tattooing or body piercing this is the great place to go in our own community. “Catfish” And his family will get the job done for you.

Stopped in 30 minutes before closing time, asked if anyone was available. Catfish went to look in his book and see when there was an opening, I mentioned what I wanted that it was a memorial and in a instant he tried everything he could to get me into a chair! Catfish himself finished a 4.5 hour tattoo, and as soon as he was finished this gentlmans tattoo, within 20 minutes he had EXACTLY what I wanted on stencil and worked on me for 3 hours after close!Not only is this man have an amazing heart! But his work is outstanding!

The go to place for tattoo hands down. Easily setup an appointment that will fit my time shcedule after meeting up with owner. After having my first sleeve done by Catfish i knew who id be going to from then on. Very amped and ready for the one and only Catfish Pawlik to do my other sleeve!!

Very welcoming environment, it was also very clean and the decorations were pretty cool as well. The artist Catfish was very pleasant and I definitely recommend a visit whether for a piercing or tattoo they will satisfy you every time.

I had a tattoo that was very important to me completely botched by another artist and I was utterly devastated. Catfish was not only able to fix the tattoo and make it what I envisioned, he created and tattooed new pieces that always turn out above expectation! One tattoo redo has now turned into a sleeve in progress because I’ve been so happy about the work I’ve received!

I’ve been there twice now, once to test my luck with their gumball machine special that Corky ended up doing and once to get some work done by catfish. Two sessions, two different artists, and one result each time - AWESOME TATTOOS!

I was just there Friday for the flash sale these guys are so nice and friendly I would definitely come back. I definitely come back and was definitely worth the long wait

Catfish’s art is amazing, he’s done two different tattoos on me now and I am for many more. His work is very clean & he’s cool to talk to. Awesome experience

The best Tattoo shop around. Very friendly environment.

Got a great tattoo from Aaron. Nice clean shop with friendly artists. Good prices. Already planning my next tattoo with them. Recommend to anyone looking for some skin art.

I rushed your tattooThose words came out of the artists mouth. The line work isnt great and he went way too deep in my skin so now Im going to scar (not in the good way). You get what you pay for. Luckily I have a good artist that can fix it. 🤦‍♀️

My girlfriend just got her first tattoo here, Catfish was awesome, he made her very comfortable and did a phenomenal job on her tattoo

Catfish, Spook,and Corkey are awesome and do amazing tattoos I highly recommend hbt, friendly, professional, and extremely helpful and very reasonable prices for amazing work. Power to the Heathens!

Tossed a color idea and watched him lay down something i didnt know was perfect until he threw his talent at it.. Large amount of color done top notch.

I got my belly button pierced, previously had it pierced and he changed the location and you can not see the bottom ball. Went wayyyyy to deep into my belly button. Awful

Got my nose pierced yesterday and turned out amazing thank you!

Man Catfish did an awesome job on my joker. Highly recommend. Awesome work for very fair prices

I’ve never had a bad experience and my tattoos are amazing. I recommend Catfish to everyone for my tattoos.

My daughter came here for her first piercing and this time she came in for her second with her little brother who came in for his first amazing experience as usual

For a septum piercing: Friendly, accommodating, professional, sanitary, affordable. It was a great experience.

Amazing work by Catfish! Talented in both realistic and watercolor tecniques. Will definitely be returning for future pieces.

Catfish does amazing work, you wont regret choosing him as your tattoo artist.
