So basically, I had gotten my first tattoo here, and I thought it was a good experience because the artist who no longer works here, Jordan, did a consultation and really tried to bring my idea to life. I wanted a half sleeve forearm tattoo and I was told it would be split into two appointments. Each one month apart. So basically, there would be lining one day and shading the other. I thought it was strange since all my other friends with tattoos got it in one sitting. I decided I would just go with it and do it. Then came the day of the tattoo, ONLY the lining work got done in 4 hours, not to mention it was actually like 3 hours 20 minutes but the artist Jordan had rounded it to 4 hours. So with that the cost was around 543 dollars just for the lining of a half sleeve forearm tattoo that did not even have much detail it was pretty basic. After that for a month, I had to wear long sleeves since it looked weird just having lines on my arms. After the month came I had another appointment, this time for the shading. The shading took around 3 hours and 10 minutes, yet again, Jordan rounded it up to 4 hours, so it took 8 hours to complete the half forearm sleeve and it wasnt even a much detailed one. This was my first ever tattoo so I thought it was normal for tattoos to be this expensive, as Jordan was charging 150 an hour. This made the tattoo cost around over 1,200 dollars just for a half sleeve forearm tattoo. I thought tattoos were just expensive and this was normal, until recently I wanted another half sleeve forearm tattoo and went to another shop. The person at the tattoo shop said I got scammed and that the tattoo should have taken 2-3 hours max by an experienced artist, and should have been only been around 600 dollars at most. By the way, at this other shop, I got a tattoo a little bit bigger and WAY WAY more detailed for just 600 dollars. I found out that Jordan had only been tattooing for around 2 years and yet she had the hourly charge of an experienced tattoo artist. She took 8 hours on a tattoo that should have taken 2-3, while still charging the amount of an experienced tattoo artist. I even asked friends and they said the same thing saying I got scammed. Not to mention, in the good tattoo shop i went to, they did the lining and shading together, and completed the WHOLE tattoo just for 600 dollars. For this one, i was embarrassed to show my arm for a month because it was just weird lines, paid double the price, and it did not even come out anywhere near as good as my other tattoo. It is a good tattoo dont get me wrong, but it should have been done way quicker and way cheaper. I feel I was deeply taken advantage of for being a young and dumb 18 year old so they thought it would be an easy money grab and that is exactly what happened. I do not recommend anyone who wants their first tattoo to go here, because they will terribly overcharge you and give you their worst artist. I am hoping we can figure something out, Paying 600 dollars extra for a tattoo is a lot of money, and it was something I really worked hard for. Not to mention the mental stress of having random lines on my arm for a month. I definitely do not recommend this shop, Fable tattoo gallery is way better and WILL not take advantage of you. I have attached a picture of my tattoo as proof.
I recently had the pleasure of getting a tattoo done by the incredibly talented Jen. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing. Jen’s attention to detail and precision was truly impressive. She took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life beautifully. Not only was the tattoo itself stunning, but Jen also made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process! If youre looking for a tattoo artist who can turn your ideas into works of art, go to Jen! ❤️
1st tattoo session went great with Fernando Garcia who is very personable, knowledgeable of his craft and just overall a great guy. Cover up is going well and I return in a month to fill it in. Very talented and accommodating as well. Loose screw is also a clean and friendly environment. Highly recommend if you’re thinking about getting a tattoo!! Will update next session if needed !
Getting my tattoo from Loose Screw was a great experience. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. My artist, Micki Gregory, worked with me to make sure I was happy, and I absolutely love the result! Excellent experience.
Micki served me well. Working a design from my concept and then executing the tattoo with a level of details I was not expecting. The front desk staff were welcoming and friendly. Overall, for my first tattoo, I felt the customer service was top notch. (And having an alcohol alternative to negate my sensitivity resulted in me being able to stay local instead of traveling hours from home)
If you want a tattoo, no matter what style you prefer, Loose Screw Tattoo is the place to go! Everyone there is top notch master status and true artists. I love Fernando and Jen and can’t wait to get some more ink in the future.Highly recommend setting up an appointment well in advance, provide details of what you want and pictures if you have them. Follow up if you have sent an email, they’re pretty busy.
My whole tattoo experience was wonderful. from the beautiful design that Anna Wolff created for me to the 5 1/2 hours of her tattooing it on my arm. Her line work is amazing. I absolutely love this tattoo. I get compliments on it everywhere I go. All of the staff that I met were so nice. I will definitely see her again for my next tattoo.
Zakariah is one of the best upcoming artist. I have been there since the beginning of his apprenticeship - to see the growth from where Zakariah started to seeing the doors that Loose Screw has opened is incredible. He is so talented and to be able to explore unknown skills to learn from will excel him in his career. I wouldn’t recommend any other shop! Clean! Thorough and they definitely make sure that you are incredibly happy with your piece.
Loose Screw is amazing! Ive now been there several times and plan to keep them as my home shop. Everyone from the front desk to the artists are very welcoming, comforting and very professional. Ive gotten 3 tattoos so far through them (two smaller and one larger project, all from Ash) and her expertise and talent is unmatched. I recommend Loose Screw to all of my ink-inclined friends and have had several get some pieces done there already. So far, Ive found the rates are very fair for their level of artistry. Im sure Ill be back soon!
Anna Wolff is incredible. For my first tattoo, I didnt really know anything except the subject matter. Shes helped me design it and even helped decipher a size that wasnt too big, but big enough to see the details of the piece. The tattooing itself was easy. She was easy to talk to. Overall, it was just a great experience.
At the age of 52 I decided to pursue a tattoo which I have been considering for years. I did my research and talked with other folks including my son who had gone to another highly rated shop and had a less than pleasant experience. I wasnt sure what to expect. I was met with professionalism, care and compassion from the first communication with the front desk staff through the design and tattoo experience with Micki Gregory. What an awesome experience and terrific folks! I highly recommend this shop as the staff are friendly, courteous and take the time to really listen to what you want and then deliver. I am so proud of my new art that Im already considering whats next and I will be back. I met Jen, Ginny while Micki was working on me and all were just outstanding to listen to and interact with. If youre considering art then this is the place to go. I cannot say enough about my experience. Micki talked me through the process and help me understand how complex tattooing is and he absolutely delivered on what he helped me design! Thank you Micki and all the staff for taking such good care of me!!
Had a fantastic experience here! I received my first tattoo from Anna Wolff. The office itself is extremely professional, well-organized, clean, and friendly. Anna was amazing to work with - she created an incredible piece of art for me, had a light touch, and kept us talking the whole time so that I didnt even notice the time pass. Would absolutely get another tattoo with Anna/Loose Screw again!
Great service from the shop. I received high quality professional tattoo from Jason. I would highly recommend talking with loose screw for your next tattoo.
My experience was amazing from start to finish! The receptionists were very welcoming and helpful, both checking in and out. My artist Ash was incredible! She made sure everything was perfect so that we were both happy with the final product. If you want anything dark, spooky, or twisted, shes definitely your go to artist! I will definitely be back for another tattoo here! Worth the 1 hour drive!
Awesome consult. Jason came in on a Sunday and opened the shop to do my consult to work with my schedule. He was awesome look forward to seeing his design and getting my tattoo.
I love this shop. Every artist is unique but have a wide range of styles. Ginny did my tattoo this time and she explains everything shes doing and is extremely detailed.They were able to get me in for a tattoo quickly, within 48 hours, which isnt always the case but they were able to hook it up for a piece for my mother-in-law who just entered hospice care.
Loose screw tattoo was the best tattoo experience that I have ever had. Anna Wolf is a true expert. She was able to create a masterpiece while simultaneously making the time fly by with good conversation. She will be the only artist I get a tattoo from, from this point on. She is worth every penny.
Not only were they clean and very professional, but Ash was amazing! I just wanted something very minimal and small and she was very flexible and understanding. The fact that, given her talent, she was still willing to do something so small spoke volumes! I had a great experience!
I had a fantastic experience with Anna! Even though my tattoo was pretty straightforward, she took the time to understand my priorities and preferences with the design. She creates a very comfortable environment, is fun to talk to, and I couldn’t be happier with the final outcome😊
One of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. I received my first tattoo and Jen was phenomenal. Everyone is really friendly and courteous. Totally made the experience memorable and fun. My only frustration is that five stars is not enough to give this place. They are perfection!
Anna Wolff was awesome to work with for my tattoo. Shes super personable and makes you feel right at home while shes making her art. Chill vibes all around at this place, definitely recommend.
I can’t put into words the gratitude I have for the people in this shop, especially for the ladies at the front desk and for my tattoo artist Zakariah. Z was the kindest, most understanding person I’ve ever experienced on a professional level. He was beyond patient with my sister and I with trying to perfect the tattoo we wanted to create for my other sister that suddenly passed away 5 days before. I’m forever grateful for his generosity with his time, professionalism, and most of all his humble heart. He’s an awesome human being and I wish him much success with his craft.
Jason is an awesome artist. He was very professional and made getting my tattoo a breeze with conversation . Hid work is top tier. I recommend Jason to any and everyone . Loose screw is a very professional atmosphere and everyone seems love and take pride in what they do there. I will 100% be back soon and only to this tattoo shop.
Loose Screw was incredibly accommodating for a spur of the moment flash tattoo session! I worked with Fernando who was a consummate professional, admin staff were wonderful as well!
Loose Screw is a great option tattoos of any type in Richmond. For my piece, I had a solid experience working with Ash. She is easy to coordinate with, extremely talented, and made a long tattooing session an enjoyable experience with great conversation! I cant recommend her, and this shop, highly enough.
Fernando did such a great job! He covered an old tattoo that I just didnt love anymore. He explained everything as he went. He designed the tattoo based on my preschool like drawing and it was perfect! Everyone in the shop was kind, polite and very much seemed to respect each other. It was clean and calm. As they say....Im already planning my next one!!
We has such a positive experience with Anna W. All of the important things were covered, like professionalism and hygiene but we really enjoyed her personable banter as we were receiving the tattoos. It was a great experience!
So far, Anna Wolff, at Loose Screw Tattoo has completed 2 tattoos for me. They have turned out absolutely stunning!!! I highly recommend her. She is professional, fun, and inspirational. Great atmosphere and good conversation. I have several tattoos and being tattooed by Anna has been my best experience and artwork so far. I will definitely be back to her for another tattoo in the near future! Definitely check her out. 🙂
I got my first tattoo from Anna Wolff and could not have had a better experience! Anna drew a hip piece for me that is more beautiful than I could have imagined, it’s perfect! She is an incredibly talented artist. She was also so much fun to talk to for 5 hours! Will definitely be going back.
I dont want to leave a bad review, however I didnt have the greatest experience. I do not live anywhere near Loose screw, so when I was in Richmond I stopped by to get a quote I talked to a young lady, I believe named Madison. I showed her the tattoo I wanted to get done and she told me no artist were available to talk, okay so she went on to tell me my tattoo that is but maybe 6 inches was gonna cost over $2k. Absolutely not, theres no way. I gave my information anyway, she told me artist will be available later that day and they will contact me well here it is a week later and still havent heard anything. A bit disappointed since I told her Im not from the area and I gave my information and told I would be contacted later that day.
Jen was amazing to work with from start to finish. She was willing to work with my budget, the size of the tattoo, and made me feel comfortable through the whole session. I gave her a concept and she created a beautiful design repressing exactly what I wanted. These are just a few of the images from throughout the session.
Best customer service ! Highly recommend coming in for consultation and then scheduling to get your tattoo!!! I specifically had Jen who really goes above and beyond to make sure your satisfied but all of there staff is like this.
Anna gave me such a positive experience during this process. From the consultation to the actual process itself, she provided a lot of peace of mind and did an excellent job with the tattoo. I could not recommend her and Loose Screw more!
Can’t ever thank Jason Stephan enough for all the work he has done for me. Glad we can relate in many ways and good conversations. Looking forward to our next visit.
I have been tattooed at two other shops previously but Loose Screw is hands down the best custom shop in Richmond, it’s always super easy to get in touch with them and they will always have the answers that you need. I was paired up with Fernando for my sleeve i have been wanting for a while and after the first session i knew there was no other shop to consider. If your looking for the highest quality custom tattoos in RVA, this is your spot.
Still need to finish the shading. Absolutely perfect experience. Highly recommend.
Update! Im 3 sessions into a sleeve and Im so incredibly happy with the work thats done and the plan for the finish!! Anna is a truely phenomenal artist and amazing person!! Highly recommend both Anna and the shop!!Original review: Experience in connecting with the right artist, booking the consultation, and the entire process leading up to and including booking has been stellar. Will re-review after we get some work in, but that wont take too long and Im stoked!!!!
Absolutely best experience i have ever had. Customer service here is amazing. Zakariah nailed the theme. Concept and design. He was so patient with me. Made me feel so comfortable! I very much so recommend this shop and tattoo artist.
What an absolutely amazing tattoo experience at Loose Screw Tattoo! The employees at the front desk were very friendly and all the artists that i had seen were very friendly and said hello.Zachariah was my artist and let me tell you he was great! I was well aware he was an apprentice and he made me feel very comfortable. I definitely was being a pain and kept changing my mind and he had no issues changing things at all. During the tattoo he was communicative, and most importantly his work looked great! At one point other artists came in to see how he was doing and to see what he was doing and they were all friendly communicating with me as well.THANK YOU ZACHARIAH FOR MY VIRGINIA TATTOO!what an amazing experience.
Had a consult with Ash and she was amazing! We talked through ideas, how she could create something custom for me, talked through timing, and more. Excited to get to work on my new tattoo soon.
First time ever at Loose Screw! Everyone was so friendly! JEN BEAN was absolutely amazing! I absolutely love my tattoo! Can’t wait to see what she tattoos next on me.
Great people. Everyone was super friendly. My artist Fernando is awesome! He really cares about his work. Cant wait for my next session with him ! Highly recommend this shop.
My artist was Anna wolf. Very efficient and knowledgeable. Great place. The place to go if anyone wants a tattoo.
Jen is an exceptional artist! This was my first tattoo and have to say I was blown away by how Jen eased my mind and helped me make decisions on placement and understanding the art behind tattoos! Private room, clean, professional and comfortable! Thank you so much Jen, worth the 2 hour drive!
Was my first ever tattoo and I’m glad that I had it done by Anna! She’s amazing and made the whole process easy! She’s also very nice and personable! Definitely 5/5!
Getting my first tattoo in memory of my husband - Loose Screw has been wonderful to work with for this novice! Receptionists have been quick to respond, empathetic, professional and compassionate.
Awesome experience! I am in a wheelchair and they did everything they could to accommodate me with my disability. JD was my artist and he was phenomenal. Definitely will come again and recommend this place to anybody looking for a tattoo in the area.
I got my first tattoo from Anna White and I could not be more satisfied with my tattoo and my experience. She is really good with her art and working with the customer. Looking forward to getting another piece done by Anna.
Fernando is a great tattoo artist. He takes great care in getting what you want done. He has artistic advice that is very helpful in making the decisions about the tattoo design. The shop is very well run and has a nice comfortable feel.
The folks there were very friendly. They carefully explained the policies. The artist that I consulted with really worked to understand what I hoped for. So far I can’t say anything but great stuff about my visit. If my final product (and I truly believe it will) turns out as good as my first visit I will be on top of the world. I completed my final visit today. 7/2. I can only add more good comments to the ones I wrote reflecting my previous visits. These folks far exceeded any expectations I might have started with. I am kinda hard to please just ask my wife but these folks far exceeded every expectation I had. The staff that greets you when you check in was great. Heck I think I got a date for next Tuesday. I am so glad I found Fernando to do my work. I would strongly recommend to anyone. To all the folks I can’t thank you enough.
Went in for my initial consultation. I was listened to, questions asked and great conversation to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. I am a senior and was not judged at all.Now I am in 2 tats and will be back in September for a cover.Both artist are great!Highly recommend this shop!
Absolutely thrilled with my tattoo from Loose Screw! Friendly & caring, professional, and top-notch artistry. Couldnt be happier! Their attention to detail and passion for their craft truly shines through.
I had a great experience and am really happy with my first tattoo! Ginny was amazing.
I had a chest tattoo with ash reid. super friendly and professional, made sure to tell me what she was doing every step of the process, which i appreciated. and of course, the tattoo is beautiful. highly recommend!
Got my first Tattoo here from Jen Bean, she made me feel comfortable and relaxed and normally I’m not a talker but I felt comfortable talking to her through the process. She did an amazing job and I’ll definitely be back and recommend her and this shop. Everyone seems friendly.
My daughter is a self harm survivor but some days are harder then others so.. we’ve started getting her tattoos, which seem to give her pause and hope before she makes any choices.This was our first time at Loose Screws Tattoo.It’s a beautiful place!.. it’s clean the people are really nice there was no rush no pressure no judgment. The prices were fair, overall I have nothing negative to say.Jordan did this one for her, she is an apprentice at Loose Screw and did a really beautiful job♥️Thank you for being a part of our big girls recovery 🙏🏽
Zakariah has always been one of my favorite artists. We had a consultation for my upcoming tattoo. He had so many awesome ideas and very creative thoughts on how my piece would look. Definitely recommend Zakariah and Loose Screw Tattoo!
Got a tattoo with Anna over the past weekend and the experience was absolutely amazing! She is a really great artist and I would recommend anyone to check out her work or go to her for personal pieces if you like her design! I know I will be coming back to work with her in the future
Wonderful artists. Attention to detail was exceptional. I had work done by both Anna and Ginny. I recommend them highly!!
I’ve been to this shop 3x, specifically to see Anna Wolff. She is dope!!!! She takes pride in her work and has great attention to detain.She is honest and takes time to make sure that you have the best result. Melding your vision with her art.
This shop is beautiful, welcoming, clean and the receptionist was a sweetheart. Nick had an incredible bedside manner and I can’t wait to get my next tattoo from here! (Waited until tattoo was healed for pic!)
Got my tattoo done by Ginny, she was professionally and very helpful. Definitely going back for the rest of my tattoo ideas.
Absolutely fantastic people! Great Atmosphere, very clean shop and the artists are second to none! So much so Im willing to drive down to Richmond from NY for my art work. Jesse, Chris and Jason are fantastic artists, and Sam is great and very responsive in talking with you online to help out, and Jen is great in the Shop. Hands down my favorite tattoo shop Ive ever been to! And Ive been to about 20 different ones. Cant wait to go back again!! 😁😁
Had a beautiful floral leg piece done by Anna Wolff just over a year ago and it healed perfectly! She made quick work of a large area and the lines look as beautiful as they did the day I got them. Highly recommend!
Anna is amazing! She’s kind and nice to talk with. Above all, her tattoos are beautiful. I highly recommend her!!
Zackirah was very professional and great to work with. I’m very excited about my new piece and enjoyed our session! Highly recommend!
Great experience with Jen Bean. This place has many talented tattoo artists. I would definitely recommend them!
The consultation with Jen was great. She is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable of her trade. I was at complete ease discussing my tattoo options and highly confident in her expertise to design what I want. Cant wait to get my new ink.***UPDATE***The tattoo session went great. Jen is an absolute pleasure to work with. It feels like youre at a family get to together rather than a tattoo studio. Everyone there from the receptionist to the artists are very courteous and friendly. This session lasted 5 hours and I could not be happier with the results (see photo). Jen did a great job.***UPDATE 2***Went back for a scheduled touch up. Session lasted an hour and a half. I am completely happy with the work. Again, great atmosphere and great people. Love my new artwork. Thanks, Jen, for all you did.
I got a realistic color tattoo on my upper arm by Fernando and he and the tattoo are AMAZING. Throughout the 3.5 hours, there was very little pain and he kept up a great pace. The design was exactly what I asked for and I couldnt be happier with it. Will definitely be coming back for future tattoos.
As promised, I have continued to come back, again, and again, AND again. I love this shop, its seriously my happy place! And the ultimate tour guide of this happy place is Jordan! Shes an amazing artist, wonderful collaborator, and all around super good egg! She continues to show great skill and diligence as we continue on my sleeve journey and I am so excited to continue to work with her! I really dont know if theres going to be another tattoo artist in my life. For. Real. Do yourself a favor, book an appointment with her! Stop reading this and go already! 😀
Jordan was awesome. She’s an incredible artist and was easy to work with to perfect the design. She really cares about her clients- it’s not just great art, it’s a great experience. Can’t wait to send my friends and family to get their ink from her too. Whether it’s your first tattoo or fiftieth, you’ll want to add someJordan ink to your collection.
Loose Screw tattoo and my tattoo artist, Micki Gregory, are amazing! My grandson & I did matching tattoos (my first). We are both so pleased with the design & attention to details. The studio is very clean & comfortable. I would definitely recommend Loose Screw tattoo as the place to go! Top Notch!!
Ginny made me feel comfortable and explained the process as we went. She did a great job on the art work.
Love love love this shop, Zakariah is a sweet heart and an amazing artist. Check out all their Instagrams because they are all insanely talented!
I reached out to Loose Screw looking for a transgender-friendly tattoo experience and the staff provided exactly that! I had a great experience with Anna re-designing my old tattoo, she is so sweet and down to earth, the hours flew by with our fun chatting during the session. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for black & white tattoo art 😇
Jason was awesome. Fun to chat with and is a great artist. Love the tattoo. Only thing is I had to make my appointment three months in advance. Look at it this way, would you rather have the tattoo same day and have a substandard tattoo, or wait three months and get something that was beyond your expectations. Im glad I waited.
Jen has done an amazing job with my sleeve couldn’t be happier with how the process went! The shop is awesome great friendly staff and all of the artist are great! Definitely recommend checking them out!
Staff was amazing, I left with exactly want I wanted. I highly recommend Jason Stephan. I will be returning for addition work and touch up.
Loose Screw is amazing. I worked with Dondrae for a Salvador Dali inspired portrait tattoo. He was so great to work with and was able to bring to life exactly what I wanted. His attention to detail was amazing and he was thoughtful on his approach making sure it came out great. This is my fourth time working with artists from Loose Screw and they never disappoint. I’m already planning on working with Dondrae on a new design and would highly recommend him for your next tattoo.
I had a large forearm piece done by Anna Wolff In January and am still completely in love with it. After realizing my idea for a pet memorial wouldnt translate well, we brainstormed and she listened to every detail that was important to me. When I showed up for my tattoo, I was absolutely blown away by what she had designed. She was so easy to talk to that if felt like my appointment flew by. Their shop is extremely clean and everyone is so welcoming there. Highly recommend Anna at Loose Screw!
Perfect and surreal. One of those sweet memories that you store in your mind for a rainy day. Mickie is the best.
I found Anna Wolff and Loose Screw through instagram and I am so glad I did! Anna was the perfect person for my first tattoo. She explained things well, worked efficiently and we had the BEST conversation. I knew when I was looking for a tattoo artist that it was important I feel safe with them in addition to loving their work. Anna makes it a priority to create a healing space and really connect with clients. And my tattoo looks so perfect!!! 10/10 experience. Would recommend to anyone
Had such an amazing experience here! Zakariah was awesome and super patient and respectful artist. Cant wait to go back to get more :)
Jen is a very talented black and gray artist who is worth every dollar she charges. I will absolutely be returning for more work
This was my first tattoo. Jordan was wonderful! Took her time and was very sweet. She did my tattoo just as I asked. I would let her do another tattoo if i were to ever get another. Id definitely refer people to Loose Screws Tattoo. Beautiful job and love it!
Fernando was extremely professional and detailed. He freehanded basically the whole tattoo and did an incredible job. I’m a few days out and it’s already healing really well. This is my third big piece and artist at loose screw and they’ve all been great. I get compliments on all of them. I couldn’t recommend the shop more.
My artist was very professional and the piece looks amazing.
Micki and met to design the tattoo based on some pics and ideas I’d shared with him. The meeting began promptly at the appointed time. Micki had all of my information and pictures at hand when the meeting began. Working with Micki to turn my ideas into art was like walking with a caring and capable guide. He knew how to get where we were going and we discovered the goal together. I’m excited to the actual tattooing appointment to wear the art Micki is making. AND the Loose Screw shop is a wonderful gallery of art and people.
Nick Mitchell did tattoos for my husband and me recently when we were in town. We presented our design idea, and he worked closely with us to nail it precisely, providing guidance on the color choices, and resetting the stencil 3 times until he was happy with the layout (a bit more precise then we were lol)!We would definitely recommend this shop and artist highly!
Amazing experience and awesome artwork done by Anna Wolff! Im not a frequent tattoo person but she def made me feel comfortable and completed the four job as she said she would. I will be coming back for more work and ideas! And a special shout out to the staff for being so polite and accommodating! Thank you Anna and Loose Screws!
Nick Mitchell exceeded all of my expectations. He is an amazing artist, and I highly recommend him. Ill let his work speak for him.
Anna is amazing. Highly recommend her. Shop was clean, friendly, and very smoothly run.
Highly highly recommend!!! I’ve been to Ginny for 3 visits (6 tattoos). She is so thorough with design, placement and skilled seasoned tattooing. I always feel confident and comfortable going in and am always thrilled with the results, even long after. Check them out!
My experience at Loose Screw was pretty amazing from the start. Sam, the shop manager, was always friendly and assisted me right away. Nick Mitchell does an amazing job - I gave him a reference picture of what I was looking for, and he put his own interpretation on it and turned it into a piece of art that Im proud to show off. He was funny & friendly, but he was very professional and made sure that I was feeling okay and comfortable during the tattoo process. Everyone else in the shop was friendly, as well. All around, its a very clean, fun environment to be in. Ive definitely recommended the shop to multiple people (and will continue to do so!), and I will definitely be a life long customer!!
Great Shop, staff were very friendly & professional. My tattoo was done perfectly.
This tattoo parlor was very organized and easy to work with. Fernando, our tattoo, artist, was professional, personable, and precise. Would highly recommend!
Jen Bean was the most amazing artist! I came as a walk in and she was very accommodating to squeeze me into her schedule so fast! Definitely someone I hope to see again in the future!The shop is very clean and one of the only inviting shops I have walked into in the area that made me feel safe and welcomed. Very nice spot!
Finally getting to do this review mainly because I’m horrible at remembering lol. But Loose Screw is an absolute amazing shop! My artist Ash Reid is amazing and really brought my piece to life and really helped make it even more beautiful than I could have imagined. I had been wanting this piece for about 8 years and had previously had an appt set with a different artist but things didn’t feel right so I had cancelled it. When I found this shop and found Ash I just knew she was going to be the perfect person and she was! She really helped take my vision to a whole new level! I am absolutely in love with my piece! I have recommended this shop to so many people as I get compliments on the tattoo all the time! In fact Ash did so well my parents have followed behind me and gotten piece done by her as well!! Thank you Ash and Loose Screw Tattoo for everything!!Update**I’ve now gotten my second piece done by Ash and she does an absolutely stunning job
I got my tattoo with Anna. They have amazing experience and knew she would be the right fit for the style I wanted. During the session, she made sure I felt comfortable, she was so sweet, and sufficiently kept me distracted which was extremely helpful. Overall, an amazing experience!
Zakariah is phenomenal I cant recommend him enough. His energy is magnetic, and encouraging definitely helps you feel at ease during the process. You can tell he truly cares about each piece he does because of the time, energy, detail and patience he has with planning a piece. The front desk staff is helpful and informative as well and went above and beyond to get in touch with me when my phone service was spotty where I worked. 10/10.
We took our son to get his first tattoo with Nick and WOW - He knocked it out of the park. Very professional, clean, and peaceful environment. We will DEFINITELY be going back. Thank you Nick.
I 100% completely adore everyone at loose they are all so nice and welcoming. It feels like a second home when I walking everyone is so nice. I love Zakariahs energy and positive. Zakariah and Mickie are such great guys they always are a good time while I am getting my tattoo. Zakariah is so patient and always open to my ideas of tatoo and always knows the perfect places to put them for me. So happy to have him as my tatoo artist.
Loose Screw support staff and tattoo artist, Anna Wolff, have been wonderful to work with. I had my very first tattoo with Anna and because of her amazing skills and personal style, I’m now on my fourth with her and see more in my future! She is always personable and makes me feel so at ease during the process that the time seems to fly by. I highly recommended Anna!
Nick did my tattoo. He not only understood what I wanted, he took it up another notch. I get people flagging me down to ask about it. 100% recommend.
I truly won’t go anywhere else. I started with Anna Wolff after she tattooed my armpit and she might actually be THE best! Of course I love black and grey pieces, but in my opinion, hers is the best I’ve ever seen. Always accommodating and lets her artwork speak for itself!! 10/10 my favorite shop and highly recommend Anna!
The environment at loose screw is enjoyable. I like that each artist has their own room. I’ve been tattooed by Anna a few times and it’s always a good time. Her work is amazing and conversations are easy and help pass the time. I definitely recommend the shop and specifically working with Anna.
Amazing tattoo artists! Fernando always goes above and beyond!! Highly recommend!!
Great experience with Ginny! Super pumped about how my sleeve turned out and cant wait to plan my next piece. Love the variety of artists and ability to collaborate and design great work. Thank you!
I received my first ever tattoo by Anna Wolff at Loose Screw Tattoo and I am so glad I did. We had a consult where she took my ideas and her style and came up with something I absolutely love. During the tattoo process she was engaging and kept me very comfortable and distracted with fun conversation. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!
The whole staff is super sweet!! They worked with me as i was getting over the mental hump of my first tattoo and it turned out beautiful! Props to Jordan Bronstein :)
Love Loose Screw! I went in for two cover ups on my back. Juan took great care of me, hes definitely a talented cat! Front desk staff is awesome, the appointment making process was quick and easy. Location is super easy to find and shop is nice and tidy. I have already booked another appointment...thank you Juan!!
Loose Screw Tattoo is by far the best parlor Ive ever been to. Super clean, private rooms, excellent service. All of the artists use top notch quality inks and machine supplies. My artist was Jason Stephan. He tattooed me for almost four hours, the only breaks being to use the restroom. He was so nice and friendly to talk to during that time. And the end result cant be beat!! I couldnt be any happier with the design he came up with for me and it healed up beautifully. Loose Screw is the best tattoo parlor in Richmond.
This place is excellent. Jenny did an awesome job.
I had an amazing first tattoo experience with Jen Bean from my arrival at the front desk to the design consultation and all the way to the tattoo session! Her attention to detail was meticulous. I have had so many compliments on my new artwork. I highly recommend Jen and the Loose Screw team, and plan to go back!
I have gotten two tattoos from Anna Wolff in the past four months and both sessions were phenomenal. I originally chose her style for her beautifully curated birds and florals, and knew she was the artist for me. I wanted her specific art style on my body- not just some copy and paste design from anyone else- and she delivered. In both sessions, Anna presented me with a tattoo that was perfectly curated from my idea, in her style. Anna is professional, warm, flexible, and empathic. For my second tattoo, she inconvenienced herself to fit me in while still doing a clean and efficient job. Four hours in the chair felt like nothing. I will be asking her to design my next piece.
Sa happy with my tattoo with Ginny and I can’t wait to see what it looks like finished!
This place is awesome, my tattoo was done by the great Jen Bean! The entire experience has been delightful, super clean and peaceful environment filled with wonderful personalities! Definitely recommend to anyone!! ( Sorry for the unfinished picture )
I was hoping to be able to leave a positive review but unfortunately, Anna did a phenomenal job of changing my mind. I had my very first ever tattoo consultation with her and high hopes due to Loose Screws high reviews after seeing some of their artwork. Walking in, I was extremely excited but after about 10 minutes of Anna shutting down every single idea of how I wanted my piece and showing her some styles from The Skull Museum in California of how I wanted my tattoo to look like, my gut feeling was telling me that she was not willing to work with any of my ideas. I hope this is a learning lesson to you, Anna, that if you arent willing to work with someone who has ideas that your abilities/skills wont be able to satisfy, at least direct them to another artist instead of saying Should I also wear the same hat as them?. I am extremely disappointed and hope that you take this as a lesson to improve your abilities as an artist/professional and not make any other client feel disrespected in the future.
Ive worked with Anna Wolff twice, for both a predrawn and a custom piece. I love her vision and shes super easy to work. As for her artistry, it speaks for itself. Her talent is unmatched.The shop itself is as professional as it gets, making their policies and procedures clear. They handle appointments, payments, etc. efficiently and easily.
It’s impossible to describe the caliber of Nick’s work…he’s simply on another level. I hate getting tattooed, but I’m looking forward to getting work done ONLY at Loose Screw. The below photo is of a touch up of previous work I had done in 2017, from another shop. Nick absolutely CRUSHED this touch up.Also read on Google and realized I’m a pretty bad tipper. I will have to do better next time. Definitely not a reflection of the quality of the work. 🙃
This place is awesome ! Zakariah did such an amazing job on my tattoos, Thank you for a great experience.
Micki was great to meet with and walked me thru their ideas for the art. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.
This shop is super clean and jesses girlfriend is so hot. Jesse is such a great artist and the way he touches me sends jolts of pure sexual energy all throughout my body. Its amazing. Oh and the tattoo looks great as well.
My sister and I are getting tattoos together they are super personal and special to us and knew they would be challenging peices but Zachariah has completely blown us away with his talent and color work skills!!! He has now done 2 tattoos on my sister and i have a long list of new ones for him
Got my feet done by Jason, and he did a phenomenal job. Super nice dude, and the same goes for the whole shop. Would 100% recommend any artist at Loose Screw to someone looking.
Love love love Ash! She did amazing on my tattoo and was super fun to work with! I will be back!!!
I had the pleasure of working with David Gordon for my tattoo, he listened to what I wanted and had a perfect design ready for my appointment, my tattoo took 6.5 hours to complete and David was great the entire time. Tattoo turned out amazing and I will definitely use David again for my next tattoo.
Jordan was the best artist I’ve ever had. She’s so personable, and detail oriented. I felt so comfortable with her tattooing me. The experience was quick and easy. Every single staff member I came in contact with was friendly and welcoming. 10/10 recommend
Best Tattoo experience of my life! I had the honor and privilage of getting an absolutely 100% custom Jesse Smith! I have many tattoos and with those come bad experiences as well as good. Nothing in all my inking years could have prepared me for the experience I had at Loose Screw Tattoo. The staff was courteous and professional, the shop was clean and well organized, and best of all the entire experience was FUN! Jesse himself is just a real dude; not at all the celebrity you might expect. He pulled up his chair; grabbed a sharpie and quite literally drew on my forearm. My husband and I felt like we were just chillin at a friends house the whole time. I see Loose Screw tattoo being the tattoo shop of our inking future. THANK YOU ALL FOR EVERYTHING!!!
Had a wonderful consultation with Ginny, who perfectly sketched my tattoo. I was able to get an appointment within a month from the consultation and had a decent-sized piece (inner forearm) done within an hour. I am extremely happy with this tattoo and look forward to getting more at Loose Screw!
I had my first tattoo at this shop, and the overall experience was great! The process was very easy, yet professional from consult to out the door post tattoo.My artist was Ginny, and she was a great first tattoo (and hopefully more in the future) artist. Everything in the process was explained concisely.Cant wait to heal my skin and save some more piggy bank money for more ink in the future!
Anna Wolff is absolutely fantastic! Her art absolutely floored me and her skill and charm brought me to my knees in awe. She is patient and takes time to make sure your piece is something you are truly in love with. Her suggestions and style are unique and beautiful.
My artist was very nice and clean and she made sure I was comfortable the whole time she was doing my tattoo. She covered up a surgical scar that I had. I’m in love all over again. The whole establishment are a vibe. Really good people y’all should check them out. #Invisiblescar
Amazing experience! Anna Wolff did a wonderful job on a black and gray peony neck piece. Made me feel super comfortable and art work was exactly what I wanted. Super profesional and highly recommend. Can’t wait to get another one!
Loose Screw is a phenomenal tattoo shop! I just left my second session with Anna Wolff and I am beyond amazed at her talent. Not only was she extremely professional, but she was understanding and patient the entire time. 6 hour session and not once did I feel uncomfortable! I’m completely in love with the half-sleeve she did for me. All the artists at Loose Screw are just phenomenal. Plus, the staff is extremely nice and helpful! Wonderful experience all around, I would recommend this shop to ANYONE looking for a great tattoo and company experience.
Amazing experience! Can’t thank Fernando enough! The tattoo turned out beautifully! The store was professional, clean and just amazing! Thank you again for the experience! I HIGHLY recommend Loose Screw Tattoo!
My wife and I have been tattooed all over the world and we absolutely love this shop. Jesse and his entire team are accommodating and incredible artists. The atmosphere is fun and inviting and the art is next level.
Anna has given me four tattoos, one of which won an award at VA Beach’s expo (pictured). She’s got a clear style and won’t do things that won’t look good, so occasionally, she’s shown me how to improve my ideas or opted out of particular work that isn’t right for that. As a result, I have incredible work that has healed beautifully and won’t disappoint over time. It’s truly working with an artist! She has a light and hella quick hand and we always get done in the time frame she expects.She is a pleasant person to sit with and I’ve learned a lot about how a tattoo can be compared to studios from the last. Im steady getting tons of compliments on my work and I’m very grateful I found Loose Screw and Anna!
Anna did three small-ish tattoos from her flash for me and they are absolutely gorgeous. She was an awesome person to hang with as well! I highly recommend her and the shop. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
Ash is such an amazing artist. Her work and energy is always beautiful. Everyone Ive met at the shop is a vibe.
Got a cover up done by Fernando. He is super friendly and super accommodating. I don’t even see where the original was! The realism and color are outstanding and out of this world. The shop itself is amazing. Super friendly service as soon and you arrive.When you know you know. This is a shop of upmost professionalism. All the artists I met were amazing. Fernando, man, thank you so much for your work. Ill never go anywhere else. I’ll definitely be back there soon! 10/10 would recommend.
Loose Screw Tattoo in general has the best atmosphere. The shop is clean and the artists and front desk worker are super nice. A super big perk is that the artists have their own spaces, so clients are not overwhelmed with having a ton of other people around them. Jordan Bronstein was a gem to work with. She was able to conduct my consultation via phone and absolutely nailed the idea I had in mind. She was very willing to work with me on the design and placement. She made sure I was 100% confident and comfortable throughout the entire process; she answered all my questions related to the process and held a nice conversation while tattooing. I will definitely be going back for future tattoos!
Love Loose Screw! Nick Mitchell is an amazing artist! He was able to take my ideas for a dark Alice in Wonderland sleeve and bring them to life. I couldnt ask for a better tattoo experience and amazing artwork.
Fernando was amazing! Expert in his craft! Would definitely recommend him and loose screw! Really clean and good vibes!
Thoroughly professional and comfortable shop with super friendly and helpful staff and amazing artists. Cant speak highly enough about Anna Wolff. If youve seen her work, you know. Easiest and best choice Ive made in a long time.
Had an absolutely amazing experience at Loose Screw. The entire shop is a very pleasant place to be and cleanliness is too tier. Lots of cool artwork all over and the front office staff is great.My artist was Ginny McCormick and let me tell you, she was awesome! The piece she created for me totally hit the mark and looks amazing. I asked for a small design change before getting started and that was no issue at all. Once in the chair she made sure to explain everything she was doing. While this wasn’t my first tattoo it was still super nice that she talked through everything. Once she got started it was smooth sailing until the session was complete. The machines in use are not overly loud which I believe contributed to the excellent experience. Overall, it was a blast at Loose Screw and I will definitely come back for any future work.
My first tattoo ever, 1st of 2 sessions for my half-sleeve - my artist is JEN! Jen is kind, professional, TALENTED, and she made my first experience so enjoyable! Im so excited to get my half-sleeve finished next month. Loose Screw is what I coin a higher-end tattoo place (compared to others Ive visited and researched), and it took me 4 years to find an artist; I searched Jersey, NC, and VA - so happy I found Jen thanks to a recommendation from my co-worker and friend (and Instagram to confirm!). Jen is providing the photo-realism and feminine, elegant ferocity that Ive always wanted for my style; her shading, lines, and everything - GORGEOUS. She has the eye and the skill. Im hooked on Loose Screw Tattoo with Jen as my artist. Regarding their process, initial consultation meeting did not cost anything, scheduling appointments was easy, cash accepted for payment, studio space is clean and welcoming, Jen made me feel comfortable and safe, and the pretty penny for Jens work is SO WORTH IT for me because shes so amazing. Im IN LOVE with what I have on my arm so far as its healing -- again, I cant wait to return in a few weeks to have my half-sleeve finished. I highly recommend Jen and Loose Screw Tattoo as a whole - friendly spot with a talented team. Ill share my finished arm in a second review next month.
Welcoming, relaxed environment with great staff and amazing artists!! I got my tattoo with Fernando, and he was phenomenal- super fast, detailed and precise, and very willing to make any changes and adjustments I wanted. He was so nice, so competent and so talented!
Quality customer service, phenomenal tattooing! Ginny was great, deft hand and gentle touch-- just what you need in an artist. She gave me a huge, bright, heavily-detailed piece and I cant stop looking at it!! To top it all off, they offer aftercare products on site for a reasonable price and free stickers, too. 10/10 definitely would recommend!
I had a consultation with Ash. Her energy is amazing. Im so glad I get to sit with her and have her tattoo me❤️. Im so giddy! The receptionist was very helpful in setting me up with Ash. Glad I came.Update! This was the best experience. No wonder they call Ash Gentle Hand of the South. She had such a warm and caring soul. I fell asleep twice..I think three times😄 My left upper thigh tattoo looks amazing. Ive had it for almost 2 months now... Im def going back this summer for another one with Ash.
This is my third tat at Loose Screw and I have to say, I won’t go anywhere else now that I’ve had two amazing experiences with them! I felt like my idea for my tat was understood, respected and transformed into any amazing piece of art that I’m proud to have a part of me!
Although I would give Anna zero stars for the poor tattoo and follow-up (or lack thereof), I am giving the shop, Alyssa, Fernando, and especially Jesse 100 stars for turning something I was embarrassed to show into something I can look at and share with pride. They really did everything they could to represent their shop in the manner that would be expected. Thank you one thousand times over!
I freakin love Loose Screw tattoo! Everyone knows Jesse Smith from ink masters... Jesse is talented as hell and hes got an original style that is one of a kind... and Jesse only hires artists with mad talent that rock unique styles... I know this for a fact because every artist at loose screw tattoo is top shelf... in fact because he hired my tattoo artist Chris Jenkins and that kid makes magic happen when he has the tattoo machine in his hand... I used to shop around for artists... but once I met Chris Jenkins at Loose Screw Tattoo and got my first tattoo done by him I knew I was never going anywhere else for ink... Chris Jenkins has done 3 amazing pieces on my left leg and Im flying from Detroit, Michigan to Richmond, VA just to draft out the fourth piece hes gonna do for me... check my boy Chris Jenkins artwork/ink on instagram @chrisjenkins_tattoos his art is the truth!
Fernando was easy to work with. He took the time to understand what I was looking for in a tattoo. It turned out great!!!!
Our artist was Zakariah, we did two fine line pieces with small shading. He was fantastic! Very nice & easy to talk to, made the experience very enjoyable and did awesome work. Will absolutely be back in the future!
Ash Reid is absolutely amazing! From the consult to the after care, she was incredibly informative, patient, and thorough. Her artwork is stunning. She took my idea and turned it into a beautiful masterpiece. I will cherish my tattoo forever and am so grateful to Ash for her care and artistry. If you are looking for a reliable, thoughtful, highly skilled artist who can create your vision, please consider Ash. I’ve never had a better experience with an artist and cannot wait to return for my next tattoo. Thank you for your beautiful work and calming presence, Ash!
Dondrae did not disappoint with my portrait of my dog I lost early this year. He took his time and made sure he captured all the details I wanted in it! Thank you Dondrae!
I went to Anna to get a large shin tattoo that took 2 sessions (8 hr and 1 hr follow up). The front desk staff was extremely friendly and kind, and the check in process was thorough and simple. Anna was extremely professional, friendly, and kind. She kept up fun conversations throughout our time together and made effort to make sure I was comfortable. The shop is extremely clean and easy to move around in with plenty of privacy for clients if needed. I would absolutely recommend Anna (and the shop in general).
Had a consultation with Anna, she was so nice and gave her artistic knowledge to make sure my tattoo design would be great! She was very attentive to what I wanted within my tattoo. The front desk lady was so kind! Very clean shop. Looking forward to getting my tattoo here. Highly recommend Loose Screw Tattoo!
I can’t thank Jordan enough for the wonderful tattoo experience. This was my first one and she made the process painless and so easy! I will definitely be back to this shop.UPDATE- less than one year later and I was back with Anna. She was absolutely amazing to work with. I cannot thank her enough as well for the top notch work she did on my thigh piece. 💕
Everyone is very personable and friendly. They make you feel comfortable and explain everything in detail. Micky did an awesome job!
Anna Wolff is amazing, I’ve had two pieces done by her and not only is she flawless in her work but she’s a wonderful human being! She makes the whole experience an ease and so enjoyable.
Just had my first ever tattoo done over at Loose screw tattoo and I couldn’t be happier. Service was great and artist are even better. Big shout out to David Gordon for doing an amazing job on my first piece. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great experience and work.
This is the second time Ive had a tattoo done here, and I believe its where Ill get all my tattoos done. When you come in, the place is clean the people are very friendly as well, the pricing is reasonable and the artist are amazing!!! Anna Wolff did an amazing job on the tattoo I wanted, I sent in the art work and she had a look at it, got back to me, and we discussed my thoughts and ideas on it, when I came to do the tattoo she was very professional very kind and had great positive energy! My tattoo was done brilliantly! And Lord knows Im already planning my next visit there!!!
My first tattoo. Ash was amazing, the drawing of what I wanted was impeccable. She did such a fabulous job. Already planning my second with her!
Jason is great! I always appreciate him because he talks a lot and it helps distract me from the pain, haha. I love my tattoo! Thanks so much!
Absolutely love everything about my experience! Ginny was my artist and she is simply fantastic! Thank you I will be returning!
I worked with Dondrae in late 2021 through all of 2022 for a full sleeve. Dondrae is a very talented artist and clearly enjoys the opportunity to express his skills through the work he does, especially if you are willing to give him more artistic liberty to contribute to the design. The theme of my sleeve was mythological characters and he did a fantastic job. Excellent, crisp line work, great proportioning, and a surprising amount of detail in a relatively small area - he captured the drama and intensity I was going for. I have received numerous compliments on his work and would be glad to return to him for future work.The studio itself is clean and the staff are very professional. The other artists and staff I interacted with over my 9 visits were all great, and I have highly recommended Loose Screw to others seeking tattoo work. The positive reviews youll see here and elsewhere are well-earned.
Had a great experience being tattooed by Jen!! She was super flexible with the design until it was exactly what I wanted. Tattoo was quick and painless!
Ive been getting tattooed by Jason Stephan for some years now. Im currently getting a full leg sleeve. Jason is an an amazing artist and an even better person! I recommend him highly especially if you want new school style art! Hes the best!
Loose Screw is where I’ve gotten both of the tattoos I have. Jen is absolutely amazing and made all of my ideas come to life! Highly recommend this place & Jen!!
I really enjoyed their process of setting you up with a tattoo artist and making an appointment to discuss your tattoo design and placement. The tattoo shop is clean and each artist has their own room to work out of. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a tattoo.
Anna is incredibly talented at what she does. I can’t recommend her enough. She took my idea and made an absolutely realistic looking tattoo of my pet. The shop was clean and all of the staff was great. Will 100% be back for my next tattoo.
From the instant I walked in, it was all about customer service and excellence!!
Tattoo is finished Nick Mitchell did an absolutely amazing job! The tattoo is perfect! All the staff are friendly.... I could not have gotten a better experience!More updates! Service gets better and better! Couldnt be happier! Still with Nick and he is amazing!Even further update........ still the best in the business!Update of update- Well into third session now and remain stunned at the shear artistry of Nick Mitchell and Loose Screw TattooUpdate- first session complete and Im beyond amazed. The skill and artistry are stunning! Worth every penny! A+++.Just started the process. First consultation was fantastic! Very professional!
Ash was fantastic! She listened to what I wanted and gave me her professional opinion. Her execution of the tattoo design and delivery was amazing, I am hooked! The second I walked into the shop, I was impressed with the professionalism, cleanliness, and how smooth the entire paperwork process was and cannot say enough about how pleased the entire visit was. I will be back and will recommend this shop and Ash to everyone, thank you!
What a great Tatoo shop and Jen is an awesome artist.The shop is clean and run very professionalI had a consultation with Jen last year but was not able to meet Jen held on to original tattoo sampleShe took the drawings that I used as a referenceJencompiles the drawings into one masterpiece for my bodyThe work was dead on, awesome jobThe artist and the reception were very friendly and placed me at ease. It was a 4.5 hour session but the time went by quicklyI recommend Jen and Loose Screw studio to anyone looking for a beautiful Tattoo
Ginny was so sweet and detail oriented. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted and made my vision come to life. The shop is very very clean the staff is very welcoming. Parking can be a hassle sometimes but it’s Cary street, one of many popular streets in Richmond. I will definitely be coming back to get more work done hopefully soon. Thanks again!
Micki Gregory is an amazing artist would definitely return to him for further art/tattoos. Very professional ! The shop is amazing!
Been tattooed before but since it was my first time at Loose Screw, I was a little nervous but luckily everyone there was super friendly and made me feel right at home. I had found Anna through Instagram and chose her because of her unique style. Wow, she did not disappoint! Great attention to detail - very focused and efficient. I have a low pain tolerance so I had to take a few breaks, but she was patient and really tried to make it a good experience. Five hours later I had a wonderful piece of art on my hip! 10/10 recommend Anna and will definitely be returning.
My husband and I just got some tattoos from Ash and we had such a great experience! She was so sweet and easy to work with and made us feel very comfortable. The tattoos turned out great! The whole shop was welcoming. We’ll be back!
I worked in one of the best studios in Georgia, and when I told them I was moving to Richmond, they said I had to go see the crew at Loose Screw. I had my complementary consultation with Ginny; her linework and attention to detail is so impressive, and I was thrilled that the front desk receptionist recommended her. Ginny was thorough and patient as we discussed my plant tattoo, getting the dimensions and style as narrowed down as possible so that she can create something awesome. It felt like I was back in my own shop because of the professional and kind atmosphere. I cannot wait to go back and add Ginnys art to my collection!
Jen Bean did tattoos for my sister and I and did an amazing job!! It was my first and she took the time to explain everything as she went to make sure I felt at ease. I appreciate her working with us beforehand and the day of. She was wonderful and we will definitely be returning for more tattoos from Jen! Thank you so much Jen!!
I’ve been tattooed here twice by Anna and both times were great. She’s a great artist and she has amazing work. It’s clean and professional! Everyone is so friendly and it’s a relaxed environment. The tattoos looked just how I wanted and Anna makes sure that they’re gonna look good on you, with placement, shape, and shading. The healing process is easy as well. I cannot recommend Loose Screw enough!
Loose Screw never disappoints! Everything always goes super smoothly, and Im in and out with exactly what I wanted. Special thanks to Ash for my most recent piece!
Loose Screw Tattoo makes getting an amazing tattoo incredibly easy! They’re incredibly friendly and make the process very smooth! The shop is always perfectly clean! I loved my experience, all the way around.
I just finished my 2nd session with Ash at Loose Screw Tattoo and I could not ask for a better experience all around. The shop is immaculate, the front desk etc.. are communicative and professional and Ash completed an amazing piece on my arm that exceeded every expectation I had set in my head. I would recommend them for any artwork you want dont and Ash specifically for anything that has alot of blacks and grays.
Shop is always clean and everyone is super friendly. David is a great artist that wants to make his customers happy. Love that the shops policy includes a free touch up within a year. Would recommend Loose Screw to anyone!
Got my initial tattoo done there about a year ago, then came back within a year to get it touched up. Nice people, clean shop, would recommend. Micki did my beetle and was very easy to talk to, making sure it was just how I wanted it without making me feel nitpicky. Ill be going back to get my other little guy done
This was the best tattoo experience I have ever had. The receptionist is always able to answer any questions I’ve had in a very timely manner. My artist (Jen) was patient, professional and knew how to read my body language for comfort. The tattoo wasn’t done too deep, the lines are nicely done and any shading was properly and completely filled. Not only is this the best experience I have had in such a clean professional atmosphere but the artist really nailed the design and made the entire experience as comfortable as it could be! I will definitely be back for more. I will absolutely be referring this business to others!
Fernando was great and the service and facility were both excellent. Highly recommend!
Awesome work, clean shop, great people! My artist for my first visit was Jen Bean. I have quite a few tattoos from several different artists but, Jen by far has the lightest hands of anyone I’ve ever let ink me. Between the great convention and the gentle touch I could have sat through an all day session with no problem. Thank you Jen! I absolutely love my tattoo! I will definitely be scheduling with loose screw tattoo again next time I’m in VA!
I was tattooed by Ash. She did a hand-drawing based on my idea which turned out better than expected! She was knowledgeable, timely, and pleasant throughout the experience. I will definitely be returning for more tats! There was a long wait time in terms of the consultation then appointment. After my consult I had to wait about 5 months before returning for the actual tattoo, but again worth the wait.
I just had my first appointment with Chris Jenkins. It was around three hours and I cannot tell you how comfortable I was being tattooed by him. He has a good time while being professional, and his artistry is on a whole new level.I also really enjoyed how clean the shop is. Its a great facility with really wonderful people. I hope Jesse realizes how lucky he is with the crew he has!
It was amazing. I had the pleasure of working with Jason, again he blew me out of the water with his work. So happy with his stuff and the atmosphere. Great guy to talk with. Will definitely be a repeat customer
This visit was just a consultation Micki was great listen to me and give his artistic insight
I arrived at Loose Screw Tattoo today and requested an appointment with Jesse. I was informed by the young lady at the front desk that Jesse is no longer accepting new clients; he has a 10-YEAR WAITING LIST and would like to RETIRE; I politely said thank you and left. However, I was confused and a little insulted with the information given about Jesse’s status. I researched several tattoo parlors in the Richmond area and chose this one for two reasons. First, this establishment has a perfect Google review score of 5 stars out of 1320 reviews. Second, I was blown away by Jesse’s portfolio and felt he was the right person for the work I needed done. Jesse and his work should have been removed from the website if he’s no longer available for commission. Furthermore, the person that was helping me never asked what I needed done (left chest, full left sleeve, full left back shoulder) nor offered other options. It’s hard for me to believe that there is a 10-year waiting list for a tattoo, or for anything else for that matter. I didn’t misunderstand what was said; this was the information given. To management: Clearly, if I’m asking for an appointment with your top artist, I must be quite serious. I don’t want to believe that this was some kind of discrimination, but it didn’t sit right with me.
Ash did an amazing job w my finger tattoos. she’s professionally and has an awesome vibe. every time i look at my hand i can’t help but smile at the work she did.
I went to Loose Screw for my first tattoo. I was nervous, but felt very comfortable there. It was a wonderful experience! All the staff were friendly and professional. Anna Wolff did amazing work. She created an artistic piece even better than I could have imagined. I highly recommend this shop and Anna Wolff!
