Chad brought my tattoo idea to life! He was extremely professional and I appreciated the high level of detail towards cleanliness and accuracy. Everything is new, packaged, sterile, and organized. Chad is by-the-book for regulations. I felt safe and comfortable throughout the whole process. Chad brings a courteous and his customer-service is at the fore-front. I look forward to reaching out to Chad next time I need a tattoo.

Chad at Friki Tiki is an incredible artist. I had an amazing experience and received one of the best tattoos Ive ever had done. Chads sole focus is on his client; no other artists or cross talk. His shop is clean and welcoming. Chad was great to chat with and made the hours in the chair fun and enjoyable. I will recommend Friki Tiki to anyone I know looking for their next piece!

Chad was awesome. Did a great job on short notice and then also did my sons first tattoo to match mine. He made my sons first tattoo so easy knowing my kid was nervous, he joked around until it was done. Highly recommended! Will go back when I have time and he has an opening.

Got some work done, and it came out fantastic. You can tell he didnt just copy a design from online somewhere, and did design work to tweak the design off references. I wasnt totally sure on what I wanted when I went in, and he provided a sick design and a great tattoo. Great artist, better tattoo.

I loved the laid back environment, and I love my tattoos. They turned out even better than what I had imagined when I first considered getting this tattoo. Technically its 2 tats, but they go together to represent some song lyrics.
