Love this place and Caleb. Caleb was referred by a good friend and I couldn’t be happier. He is awesome, super laid back, hilarious, humble and takes a lot of pride in his work. Full of great ideas & has a genuine passion for his art.

Everyone at this shop is nice and welcoming. My artist Ali is super talented and was able to deliver a beautiful design that I loved. Easy to find, relaxing environment, clean and non intimidating like some shops can be. I brought my husband for support and we drove from Alabama for the day. They graciously allowed my husband to stay and hang out while I was getting my arm worked on. Great conversations and great art from all the artists. Will recommend and book for future tattoos!

I got my first tattoo in 7 years last night. The employees all accommodated my friends and me as walk ins for our simple tattoo ideas! Uriel was very professional, gave his opinions to help make sure my tattoo was the right size and placement for me, and gave me clear after care instructions! Would absolutely recommend this shop. An added bonus is their cool visual art pieces on display for sale in the lobby!

Caleb at the shop is absolutely amazing! Great dude to work with not heavy handed, and really works with you to make sure you get a one-off tattoo that you’ll love. Currently working with Caleb to get my whole leg sleeve done and couldn’t be happier and will be going back for years to come.

Ive gotten 2 tattoos from here (small and large) and I love them both. The place is nice, clean, and artsy. Shae is so sweet and very talented. Owner is very friendly and funny. Tattoo beds are very comfortable. A must-visit if you like real artistic tattoo artists.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Living the Dream and the people that make it what it is.I had originally reached out with too many ideas of what I wanted, and Oscar was very transparent with what would look good/what wouldn’t look good and why. He never pushed me towards a decision but rather asked me questions to help me prioritize these ideas into what he turned into something even better.The shop is spotless, they were easy to work with as far as scheduling/rescheduling, the location is easy to find, there’s adequate free parking, and every artist is highly skilled. More so than all of this, the environment is light hearted and an absolute blast - I’m bummed that my tattoo is almost finished because it was so much fun hanging out with everyone.

LOVE THIS PLACE!! I had a GoT themed tattoo in mind that I was putting off for whatever reason. Met Caleb very randomly at a gym once and immediately thought “yeah you’re gonna do this tattoo.” Was NOT disappointed at all—he paid attention to every little detail in the drawing and placement, and made my vision come to life. Could not recommend him more.Shop as a whole has a very chill environment with fabulous people and bad*** art displayed everywhere. Go here, and ask for Caleb.

Had the pleasure of being tattooed by Shae today. This was my first time visiting Living the Dream Tattoo, and it was a wonderful experience! I have followed Shae on social media, for a while now, and jumped at the opportunity to claim one of her flash, that she had posted up. She was wonderful, a great conversationalist, and very detail oriented. I look forward to working on future projects with her.

After having a challenging situation at another studio earlier in the day, by chance we stumbled across Living the Dream! The vibe when you enter was so chill and when we gave our artist, Uriel our concept for a friend tattoo. He came back with exactly the perfect design. We were there for a couple hours and had a great time! We laughed, joked, and just had an extremely memorable experience. More importantly, his craftsmanship and detail was so impressive. He was flexible with our desires and though we all got the same tattoo, me and my friends all did different sizes and color variations. 10 out of 10!

Review №13

I am beyond happy with the work Uriel did on my arm tattoo today! His detail in the lines and shadowing are incredible. Hes professional and friendly. The atmosphere is definitely a 10 and the price on point. Im a true believer everything happens for a reason, and running into Uriel the day that I did (months ago) was meant to be!

I got the absolute pleasure of having Caleb as my tattoo artist! I’ve been planning this tattoo for 2 years and saying he PERFECTED it wouldn’t even give it enough credit! The pure talent and amazing environment I got during my time was amazing and I cannot wait to go back to get so many more pieces. I added his instagram below definitely check him out and get a tattoo from him!

Review №18

Had a tattoo done by Shaelyn Daniels. The whole experience from scheduling the appointment to finalizing the design to the actual appointment was great. Shaelyn was easy to work with, courteous and professional.To finalize the design, she listened to my input and provided options that worked to enhance my vision.The day of the appointment she explained all the steps. Shaelyn has a gentle hand. So even though I expected more pain due to the tattoos placement (upper inner arm), it never really happened. I attest that to her skill. Once we were finished, she clearly explained the aftercare and answered all my questions.Even though it was not my first tattoo, it was my best tattoo experience. The shop was clean and bright. Great energy with the other artists. I highly recommend Living the Dream Tattoo and Shaelyn!

I got some work done with Caleb. He was amazing!! Found him on Instagram and introduced an idea I had. He took what I had in mind and drew up something better than I had imagined. Really brought my piece together. I was very impressed that he did everything free hand, including the lettering. Very detailed and clean work. I will definitely be back to get more done with him. Overall the shop is very clean and professional!

From start to finish the experience is wonderful here. The shop is a great atmosphere as well, everyone’s professional and great company. I had Caleb as my artist for 2 of my tattoos and I would definitely see him again. He’s really talented and passionate about what he does. 100% recommend!

I originally got my hand piece in Michigan, however my fingers and web tattoo did not hold up well. Shaelyn got me in same day that I called and made all of the lines bolder. Not only is she great to talk to, my touch up looks SIGNIFICANTLY better. I waited for everything to heal up before posting and making my review so you can see the before and after. Oscar was also there, was a fantastic host and guide so my work would look better as well. Great environment, friendly artists. I would recommend them again. Before and afters are posted below ❤️ thank you so much Shaelyn and Oscar! (The before photos are the last 2 and the first 2 is the current look).

I worked closely with Caleb. He designed both of my tattoos and I love them both. He really listened to what I was wanting and came through on a new level. He takes care of you during the session and makes sure that you’re comfortable. The entire shop is great and has a great atmosphere. Call and ask for Caleb!

I would drive 5 hours again to get tattooed at Living the Dream! I was in town for a very short visit and Living the Dream was able to accommodate my tattoo request on very short notice. Uriel did my tattoo and I am beyond happy with it! The attention to detail on this tribute tattoo (for my late father) is beautiful! The artists that were in the shop during my visit were friendly, personable, and made my experience super fun! I HIGHLY recommend Living the Dream, and look forward to booking again with Uriel during my next visit to Atlanta.

Amazing shop!!! The artists made this whole experience easy and fun!I reached out after someone recommended Oscar to me for doing a bicep tattoo I had been wanting. During the booking process I decided to also get a tattoo from the other main artist Sean as well!Both artists were clean, thoughtful and really great guys overall! I let them have creative freedom with the ideas I presented and was not disappointed! I could tell they really cared about the work they put out!By my 3rd tattoo with this shop, I felt completely at home! The shop is a vibe! I felt so relaxed and comfortable!The apprentices, Shae and Caleb, were also really great! They were always working on the next drawing or design!I am so excited for the next pieces! ♥️

Sharing my experience with Living the Dream Tattoo shop. Firstly, this shop is such a vibe. From the tattoo artists to the music and artwork, and everything in between. They really make you feel at home like youre part of their family.My tattoo artist is Caleb and hes really on it every step of the way. I love tattoos, I hate the pain (just a little) but he made both my tattoo sessions as painless as possible. Very impressed with his work and his ability to grow in each session. Would highly recommend him or anyone else at the shop for tattoo work.

Review №47

Went in for a small to medium sized piece in dedication of my mom. The first thing I noticed was how immaculately clean the shop is. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and Dan was my artist. He was super professional and quickly drew something up. After a few small tweaks, I was really happy with the design. We decided on a placement that would best suit the art. He was efficient and the line work and shading was clean. It healed beautifully and I get compliments on it all the time. Highly recommend Dan for your next tattoo!

I was really excited to stumble across a nice tattoo shop close to my house. I ended up going through their instagram and finding Caleb’s flash art. After my first tattoo with Caleb, I already knew I wanted another one by him. I later came back for symmetrical ornamental pieces on my traps. He did amazing, was super accommodating to my change in schedule, was really respectful and kind, checked on me multiple times, was knowledgeable, and Listened to my thoughts on the tattoo. Already thinking about my 4th piece by him!

I received a full sleeve from Oscar over the past 6 months and I couldnt be more happy! Oscar, as well as the other artists here, are extremely talented! His shop is very tidy and he takes cleanliness very seriously to reduce any potential health and safety hazards.Oscar always made me feel comfortable and at ease. He explained in detail what we would be doing on any given day about his approach and made sure I approved of it before we began or moved forward.I would highly recommend Living the Dream to anyone looking for high quality work from someone who has been in the tattoo industry for a long time. He knows his craft very well.Amazing, thank you!

Shae is such an incredible artist! I’m from NYC and wanted to get something cute when I was traveling and Shae did exactly that! She captured my vision and executed it effortlessly!

If you are looking for a tattoo shop with positive vibes and great art...Living the Dream is it!!Right from the start you will be welcomed as soon as you walk in like you are family.
