Rivers To Roads Tattoo Shop

Heather was so amazing, she helped me figure out just what I wanted and then designed something perfect for me, and the experience was really great. I was looking for a large piece in honor of my daughter, a rosebush for my Rosie girl, and Heather took my ideas and photos and created something truly beautiful. Two sittings, 3-ish hours each, and Heather was great the whole time. She even had snacks (which was helpful!). Tattoos are an uncomfortable experience, but it was much easier and way less painful than childbirth!

I can’t say enough about how great my experience was at Rivers to Roads. Heather was super easy to work with as she listened to my ideas and really brought them to life just as I had hoped. She always took the time to make sure that I was comfortable with her design throughout the process. Besides the great artistry, I felt very comfortable in the studio and really enjoyed our conversations. Definitely going back!

Heather is not only a fantastic artist but personable and collaborative. She even gave me tattoo aftercare supplies. Thank you so much for your care and attention to detail!

Heather is absolutely fantastic! She takes the time to listen to what you want. She goes above and beyond to make sure what she designed is what you wanted. She makes the whole process very easy and smooth!

Loved working with Heather, have 2 of my bigger pieces from her, amazing art, really took into account the details and made each amazing!! Highly recommend!

What an absolute unbelievable experience from start to end. Ive had the great pleasure of being tattooed by Heather many many many years ago and they are still to date some of my prettiest and most favorite tattoos! Yesterday was my extreme honor to visit her new shop Rivers To Roads and just wow! The shop is incredibly cute and inviting and cozy, not to mention spotless and Heather was nothing but accommodating, professional, and fun. One of the best experiences Ive had sitting for a tattoo in ten years. Thank you for creating such a beautiful safe place to share your art Heather! Now everyone go get a freaking wolf tattoo.

Awesome experience with Heather. Unlike other tattoo shops I’ve been to, Heather was extremely collaborative. We made adjustments on the spot and I came out with a tattoo that was better than I expected! I’d highly recommend River to Roads and will definitely ask Heather for another piece.

Heather is amazing! So friendly and talented. Her shop is incredibly clean and she made me feel comfortable throughout the entire appointment. Her style is so beautiful, and you can tell how much she loves what she does. Highly recommend all around.

Heather was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was very patient, open, and honest in my consultation with her about the design I wanted. She made a very comfortable and relaxing environment to get tattooed in as well. On top of all of that, she does amazing work. Her attention to detail and composition is otherworldly and her ability to hand draw on additional details as the design needed is beyond amazing. I highly recommend getting tattooed by Heather, you wont regret it.

Heather was absolutely amazing. My tattoo is great and healing beautifully. She was great during my appointment and made me feel super comfortable.

Had an absolutely wonderful experience here with my husband! Heather was very easy to work with and is extremely talented. We gave her an idea of what we wanted and she made it even better than we couldve imagined! We also love the vibe of her shop, and we felt super relaxed and comfortable there. Definitely highly recommended!

Heather does amazing work! Just check out her portfolio. That said, my first (and as of now only) tattoo was my dog’s paw print on my arm. It’s small and simple, so I was worried that she wouldn’t care as much about it since she is so used to doing larger and more intricate tattoos on people. Not the case at all! She put every effort into it the same as if I were getting a complicated sleeve. She took her time with it, gave me options, and also genuinely put a lot of care into this tattoo. Any future tats I get will surely be done by her!

Felt super comfortable from the moment I stepped into the shop! Very mellow vibes and just over all amazing experience. Will definitely make a few more appointments working with someone so like minded and creative goes a long way.

I got a large leg tattoo from Heather at Rivers to Roads and I can tell you now that it will not be my last! My tattoo took two sessions and each one was a wonderful experience. Heather is a delight to speak to and even enjoy some silence with. Nothing felt awkward or forced having her as an artist. The shop is clean, has amazing natural lighting, and is private. Heather is the only artist there so you never feel like there is anyone listening in to your conversation or about to barge in at any moment. I had loose parameters of what I wanted because I wanted her to interpret the elements into her art styling and I am so delighted with the art that ended up on my leg! I literally cannot stop staring at it! My bat looks so realistic and sweet and the details on the bat and the florals are just so refined and stunning. 10/10 experience at Rivers to Roads!

Heather tattooed me, my sister, and my friend at the same and she made it an awesome experience for all of us! It was my first one and I was super nervous, but she was very accommodating to everything I wanted and even put a good movie on for us which helped my nerves a lot! We’re all soo happy with how our tattoos came out and also are happy about how affordable it turned out to be! Highly recommend coming to Heather for your first tattoo or your 100th! 💗🐉

Amazing tattoo artist! She is reliable and incredibly talented and just an all around awesome tattoo artist. The shop is really comfortable and they really go above and beyond in creating an awesome environment. I recommend everybody I know to this shop. I always feel like my requests for placement and style of a piece is really heard and respected and that they really care about making sure the healing process goes well. 10/10 I literally cannot say enough good stuff about this place

Heather is an incredible artist, and her studio is a beautiful and welcoming space. I got a custom tattoo of something I had designed, and she was able to take my design and translate it perfectly into a beautiful tattoo without changing anything drastically so my voice still came through loud and clear. I am beyond happy with it, and it was a wonderful experience for my first tattoo!! Highly recommend!

Heather is an incredible artist! Her shop is clean, welcoming, and comfortable. Heather has done the majority of my tattoos and I have never been less than ecstatic with the outcomes. Her line work is crisp as heck and her shading is amazing. 10/10 will continue to work with heather for the rest of my tattoos.

Heather has been doing tattoo work for my boyfriend for a couple years and I always loved the way she used colors. When I finally decided what my first large tattoo was going to be I knew I wanted to come to her. When she recently opened her own studio I was happy to go there to get work done by her. The studio is cute, clean, and I felt super comfortable and cozy there. She is an amazing artist and I can’t wait to have her do my second session to finish my tattoo! I’d recommend her to anyone.

I cannot say enough good things about Heather! She’s super nice, explains everything in detail. Makes you feel very welcome and comfortable. Offered snacks, breaks, water, and when she noticed I had some goose bumps she had turned on the heater. She uses great products that really benefit the client and makes the experience just overall so pleasant. Highly recommend, she has beautiful work and just overall a nice place to be! I literally cannot stop raving about my experience to people. Like. Go. Just. Go. You won’t regret it.I am excited to go back to get more tattoos :)~Jenn

Heather did such a great job on both my tattoos! From concept, to design, to finished ink, she was creative, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

I took a vacation to the Boston area and one of the things on my to do list was come back home with some Massachusetts ink. I booked my appointment with Heather and she absolutely knocked knocked it out of the park, bringing my favorite childhood television character to life and immortalizing him on my leg. Friendly, clean and professional, I highly recommend this tattoo parlor.

Heather is truly an artist. She took my convoluted idea and made a gorgeous work of art out of it. She is so creative and her talent speaks for itself. Every chance I get I recommend her to anyone looking to get a tattoo. I can’t wait to visit her again for my next project!

This last week I got my first tattoo done by Heather and she did an absolutely amazing job, to say the very least. This piece is very sentimental to me, Heather took great care and effort into creating my vision perfectly! My fiancé and I have followed her and her work throughout these past few years & every session has always been very pleasant, professional, comfortable, and clean. I cant wait to return to Rivers and Roads again for another amazing piece! Thank you Heather!

Heather has tattooed ever limb on my body. Couldn’t recommend a tattoo artist more genuinely. She has done amazing line work, black and white, and amazing color tattoos. There is no style I wouldn’t trust her with. If your looking for a tattoo artist, your search should end here.

Heather is an incredible artist and a really cool person to get a tattoo from. Last year, I got a perfect tattoo of my little dog Coyote from her at Rivers to Roads Tattoo Shop. It took a good chunk of the day, and it was a total joy to hang out with Heather in her shop, watch the birds check out the bird feeders in the windows and look at all the amazing art by local artists that she displays. Every time I look at this tattoo is makes me laugh and feel so happy! It cracks up and amazes all who gaze upon it. It truly looks exactly like Coyote and well captures his personality. I will definitely work with Heather again. She came up with the tattoo design herself, it is just so amazing!! I cant say enough good things about this supremely talented, chill person.

I got my first tattoo from Heather, and I have nothing but excellent things to say. She listened to what I wanted my piece to be and what it meant to me and came up with an absolutely stunning design. She is so attentive to detail and communicative. She gave me detailed instructions every single step of the way from days before the appointment, positioning on the day of, pacing myself while sitting for the piece, and excellent after care instructions. Heather is an amazing artist, and I am so lucky to have found her.

I went to Heather for a minimalist approach on a picture of my cats that I took and she created such an adorable piece for me that is hands down my favorite tattoo. She is incredibly talented and did an amazing job of making me feel safe and comfortable while in her shop. Her shop is very clean and welcoming, as well. I would definitely recommend you get your next tattoo by Heather!

Heather is a talented, fun soul who has a incredible talent! I had the pleasure of working up designs with her! Looking forward to making these amazing ideas come to life! Overall amazing experience!

I could not be more happy with my experience at Rivers To Roads! I have been following Heather on Instagram for a while now and I finally got myself on her books. Not only did Heather listen to the exact ideas I wanted for my tattoo, she added her artistic touch and made it even better than I could have imagined. The studio is clean and private and I felt comfortable from start to finish. I will never go to anyone else for any other tattoo again!

Heather is great and the studio shes created speaks to her professionalism and contributes to the experience. Its a one-on-one experience beginning to end, which I very much appreciated.

The artists are so nice, lovely and professional. The owner, Heather, puts a lot of hard-work & pride into her business and it shows. The artwork is amazing & I’m happy with my tattoos every time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I have gotten multiple tattoos from Heather, she takes the utmost care in making sure the artwork on my body is exactly what I want. Her attention to the smallest details makes her tattoos something that dreams are made of. I travel over 500 miles just to have her tattoo me. Tattoo artist like her don’t come around often.

I got my first tattoo from Heather a few years ago, and shes been my go-to tattoo artist ever since! Her attention to detail and range of artistic abilities is unmatched. She can do any style - traditional, watercolor, pointillism, graphic, realistic, etc... you name it, she can do it! Love the new space in Danvers - super cute and clean, lots of local art and plants, has ample parking, and is easy to find. Thanks, Heather!!

Heather is an amazingly talented artist who has created a welcoming space for clients. She is perceptive, professional, and brings a great sense of respect to every aspect of the tattooing process from consult to after care. Her artwork is whimsical, while rooted in traditional aspects - perfectly embodying a unique, one of a kind piece for every person. I reccomend Heather to every person I know wanting a tattoo, or who compliments my half sleeve (entirely by her).

Heather made this one of my best experiences! She drew two amazing designs that blew my every expectation out of the water and my tattoo is better than anything I could have hoped for. The shop is clean, inviting, and comfortable. I can’t wait to come back!

I had the pleasure of working with Heather on my first tattoo piece. She was knowledgeable, kind, and professional in every way! Her studio was clean and cozy, and she made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. Big THANK YOU to Rivers to Roads!

Heather is wonderful to work with in every way. She is amazingly talented, communicative, encouraging, and friendly, and she made my dream tattoo come to life perfectly. I recommend her to everyone who is interested in botanical/nature or watercolor tattoos in particular!

Heather is amazing! Her work speaks for it self (meaning amazing) and she takes the time to take your ideas and turn it into an amazing piece of art. I was nervous but she does everything to make me feel comfortable and calm.

Heather has created a comfortable, fun, and clean environment for getting tattoos. Her work is spectacular. I look forward to many more trips to Rivers to Roads Tattoo.

Amazing experience from start to finish. Booking was a breeze as Heather was very responsive when communicating and booking via email. She was also incredibly patient with any questions that I had. Her space is immaculate and very welcoming. Heathers design, line work, and attention to detail were amazing. She brought my vision to life in a way I couldnt have imagined. An absolute pleasure to work with and I would 1000% recommend!

Heather transitioned into her own shop and I absolutely love the vibe and her work. She communicates extremely well and is easy to talk to. She was able to capture exactly what I was going for(anchor memorial tattoo). Shes extremely clean in her work space and knowledgeable with tattoo after care as well.

This was my first tattoo. Heather was wonderful about explaining all of the steps to the process and ensuring I was comfortable at every stage. The studio is wonderful in terms of design, vibe, and comfort. Could not have had a better experience. If you are looking into getting some ink done for the first time, this is definitely the place to go.

Heather created a beautiful piece for me. She truly made a vision come to life. She is incredibly talented, welcoming, friendly and knocked it out of the park. Will certainly recommend her to anyone looking for amazing work

Ive received two tattoos from Heather, the Rivers to Roads proprietor, and as and when I decide upon another I wont go anywhere else. Heather is incredibly talented and fosters open collaboration with those seeking just the right, permanent work of art. The new studio is open, airy, bright and inviting, and Heather is meticulous in her practice.

Heather is the best! I have been going to her for my tattoos for about 3-4 years now. She is very professional and very nice. Her studio is very clean. She will forever be my tattoo artist and I also recommend people to go to her!

Excellent experience overall. Heather was great from initial consultation throughout the whole process. Very easy to work with and accommodating.

Heather made my first tattoo experience very comfortable. I love the piece she designed for me and I plan to come back for more!

Heather is an amazing artist, professional and wildly creative and very willing to work with you to ensure you get the tattoo that you want. She practices proper sterilization, kept her work area tidy and is worth every penny.

The first tattoo I got from some 5-star place I found online cost me way too much and 9 hours of my time with okay results for way too much money.The tattoo I got from Jimmy was the opposite experience. I gave the lad a few keywords--a monkey, a pen, and some lightening--and he made me something that dropped my jaw to the floor. It was done in an hour and a half, cost me half as much, and was clearly itched by a god damn master.

Heather is incredibly talented and thoughtful in her work, and her shop is beautiful! Ill definitely be back for another tattoo soon.

Honestly the most welcoming place I have been for a tattoo. The artist did a lovely work of art for Friday 13th 2023 and I honestly think it’s my favorite piece. Lovely conversation and very empowering!

When my father passed away in 2017, my world collapsed. After all, who is ever ready to lose a father? I had been thinking about doing something in his memory for a long time... I am forever grateful to the talented Heather for eternizing footprints in the sand, my fathers favorite poem, in me! It has everything I wanted and more: the poem, the meaning, and the watercolor style. People stop me all the time to ask me about my tattoo. Thank you so much, Heather! Youre definitely the best tattoo artist!

I got my first tattoo here and she did an amazing job. I felt so safe and she did such an incredible line work. Her studio is gorgeous and was beyond amazing. Could not recommend her enough

Heather at Rivers to Roads Tattoo Shop was wonderful! We had been conversing via email during covid to set up an appointment for a rib tattoo I wanted. Heather was prompt in responding to me, patient with answering my questions and professional. Heather did a wonderful job, made me feel very comfortable in the studio and was patient with me when I needed a break during my sessions. Her artistic ability is amazing. I gave her the ideas of what I wanted and she drew out two designs for me to decide between. She was flexible with making changes (although I didnt need many) and 100% grasped what I was trying to achieve in my memorial tattoo that I wanted done. She was respectful given the area I was having done and made sure I felt comfortable during both sessions. The studio was clean and private and welcoming. I highly recommend Heather and will be back to see her again for more work!

Heather has been working on my sleeve for the better part of two years. She is extremely professional with her work and cares about her clients needs. I always look forward to getting work done with Heather because she offers ideas I would have never have thought of. Her working space is always clean and tidy and she makes sure you are always comfortable when getting the tattoo. I get a lot of complements on these tattoos and I always make sure to tell them to check out Heathers work.

I’ve been going to Heather for years. It’s clear she loves and takes pride in what she does. Couldn’t recommend her or her shop more.

Super shop, family run and ownwd. Very professional and prices are more than fair. Went in for a special that they run on Friday the 13th. Will be going back for more work.

Heather is absolutely amazing and her talent cannot be matched!

I’ve had several sessions with this artist and I’m always impressed with her art! Super clean, incredibly professional, and an overall wonderful experience. Highly recommended!!!

Very kind and thoughtful! Great tattoo artist overall!

Great staff and great work! Super professional! You wont be disappointed!

They did an amazing job, couldnt be happier!

A great environment and great atmosphere and great tattoo artist

Amazing work as always
