Angry Elephant Tattoos Winter Haven

I cannot express enough how incredible my experience has been with Grizzle (Mike) at Angry Elephant Tattoo. He is, without a doubt, the best artist I’ve ever met. Every three days, I find myself craving another session with him, eager to add more of his amazing work to my collection.Grizzle is not only a phenomenal artist but also a great teacher. He takes the time to help you understand what does and doesn’t work aesthetically and explains which colors will saturate well. His expertise and guidance make every tattoo session a learning experience.From the moment I walked into Angry Elephant Tattoo two months ago, I felt like part of the family. Grizzle’s welcoming and professional demeanor puts you at ease instantly. In just a short span of time, I’ve already gotten a full sleeve and multiple leg tattoos from him. His artistry and vision are so trustworthy that I even let him add his own twist to the ideas I bring.One of the most impressive aspects of Grizzles work is his ability to cover up old, bad tattoos. I had a couple of botched tattoos from when I was younger, and its crazy what he can do to transform even the most poorly done ink into something beautiful.Beyond his talent, Grizzle has become a good friend. His passion for tattooing and dedication to his craft shine through in every piece he creates. If youre looking for an exceptional artist who makes you feel at home and delivers stunning tattoos, look no further than Grizzle at Angry Elephant Tattoo.

This is the third piece I’ve had done by Stef and she always does an amazing job. For this tattoo, I had such a loose idea of what I wanted and minimal reference photos, and she turned it into something far beyond what I could’ve imagined. I’m so happy with the outcome of this tattoo (and the other two she has done for me). Highly recommend!

Meeting Grizz was a pleasure. Super cool dude and easy to talk too. He is an amazing artist and I couldn’t be more happy with the work done I got done. This guy will always be my go to for future tats. Go show him and the Angry Elephant shop some love!!

This place was amazing! Very clean and very professional. I went in with an idea of what I wanted and they really helped make my idea come to life. Miguel was the one that tattooed me and he was amazing! Would highly recommend coming here and I will definitely be back.

Napo did a cover up for me today and I had actually gone to several places before and they said it wasnt possible to make it happen lol I had just left Aces around the corner after being told no way and I walked up to elephants shop with Napo in the door and he was like lets go 😂 very skilled and professional to say the least and it turned out perfect. This is the top shop in the area by far!!! Thanks again guys!

Napo did such an amazing job. He took his time never rushed and always polite. The manager was always there to assist if we needed anything. For my first tattoo I went big and came out amazing.

First time here and I love it very clean the atmosphere is great everyone is friendly very comfortable environment I will definitely be back to see grizzle he really is amazing

Have been waiting for a good opportunity to highlight this place, just needed a name to shout out as well. Anything you need while there, piercings especially, ask for KEYSTEN. Dude knows his stuff and hes humble so thats pretty rad as well.

My wife got a tattoo the other night. Its my second encounter with this shop and Ive been very happy with it overall. My wife is extremely happy with her tattoo.

Got my first tattoo from one of my closest friends! She did an AMAZING job of combining my fur babies! Friendly and clean atmosphere hit her up on Instagram @meltytatts

I absolutely love the artwork. They did a great job in making me feel comfortable and at ease. They had some great music playing and they are very friendly. They helped me with my tatto design and made sure I liked it . Every one was polite and the vibe was overall good. Highly recommend this place even for people who are getting there first tattoo like me

Excellent artist. High quality tatto. Custom tattoo. Highly recommended

Melany was my tattoo artist, being so sweet and doing a great job with exactly what I wanted! Awesome job!

Insanely patient about the piercings and very understanding. I enjoyed it and I will come back for other piercings if possible!

Miguel did my first tattoo. It was a great experience and it came out exactly as I wanted.

Got a sleeve done by Miguel. Love the detail and hardwork he put into it. Everyone was friendly and would recommend to anyone looking to get some work done. I will be a repeat customer!

This is my second visit at Angry Elephant of Winter Haven to get the other side of my nose pierced. The piercer, Keyston (or Keysten) is great!! I recommend 100 percent

My 1st tatoo.. a tribute to my Dad.. Napo is FABULOUSHe captured my Dads WWII 13th Air Force Patch, and signature perfectly. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Get customer service from Grizzle, great job on the tattoo would come back again

I cannot speak highly enough about Stef. She made me feel completely comfortable and welcome, and the tattoo turned out exactly how I wanted it if not a billion times better.

Had my daughter’s nose pierced here. Very friendly, clean and good atmosphere. Which is actually more uncommon than I realized. Highly recommended.

This is hands down the absolute best shopThey are always friendly and engaging, informative and knowledgeable I have had several tattoos done here and plan on doing many more these guys and girls rock

My favorite place for tattoos and piercings, Best most friendly staff. I will always always always recommend people go here. Napo does amazing tattoos and Keyston does amazing piercing, The whole staff is amazing 10/10

My artist was Jezz and what he created freehand from head to needle was true art. Im so pleased with his work and professionalism while being relaxed and making me comfortable. I cant say enough how impressed I was for my first session today

Absolutely best tattoo shop there is! Stefany made my whole experience wonderful, and she does phenomenal work!!

Was looking for a Septum Piercing for a friend and I’m not super knowledgeable about piercing. The staff were super helpful in finding the exact style I was looking for. Very positive experience, I would return.

Awesome Place. Staff was overly friendly and all the artist did beautiful work. Stephanie did mine and my moms. We couldnt have asked for more. She was fabulous..such a sweet girl..

Keysten did my dermal and was the best piercer I have ever dealt with. Totally will come back.

10/10 recommend!! Emma does clean tattoos every time. I have multiple tattoos from her and she always makes the experience a comfortable one. The shop is always clean and everyone is so friendly! I’ll be going here for any future tattoos too :)

I’ve gotten multiple tattoos here from Emma! She’s always excited to hear my ideas and she designs custom pieces and understands every small detail I want in the tattoo. The shop has amazing customer service and they immediately help anyone who walks through their doors!!

Keysten was great! He was able to get us in for an appointment right away, was very informative and did an awesome job piercing my daughter’s ears. Would highly recommend this place!

Amazing place! Nice decorations Miguel did a great job on my fresh tat and touched up one he did about 5 years ago. Thank you guys youre amazing!

Stef does incredible work and is an absolute angel! She’s extremely gentle and makes sure you’re taken care of. Tattooing can sometimes be an uncomfortable process, but she makes sure to check on you & makes sure you stay comfy! She also gave me a free tee and some stickers with her logo! Her linework is immaculate and the colors are always gorgeous and vibrant. I have two tattoos from her (forearm piece, a fox w florals and a lil mouse, predator vs prey themed) so far, one that’s currently a work in progress (thigh piece, Spanish moon moth with flowers) and I’m over the moon with both of them! I get compliments all the time with. The studio itself is very clean and cozy. The vibes here are super chill and I always find it to be a comfortable place to be at while I’m being inked. The other staff are all really chill too. Love coming here and can’t wait to get inked again!

Stefany did my Tatoo and I really appreciated her concern for detail and for my comfort. Her attitude was very professional and kind! I would definitely recommend her!

Emma was amazing! Highly recommend her. She is very detail oriented and patient during the process of figuring out the initial design of the tattoo. Thank you Emma!!

This is the best place the guys are very nice and talk with you to find out exactly what and how you want the tattoo. Grizzle is the greatest I will definitely be back.

Walked in and shared my idea for a mandala on my solar plexus. Spoke with Emma, showed her ideas, and she put together exactly what I was imagining. I felt at ease the entire time and Emma often checked in to see how i was doing. Keysten the manager was also very kind. Thank you!!!

Great Experiences! I’ve had multiple tattoos done here. Highly recommend this shop.

Absolutely outstanding job done for my boy today. Could not recommend these guys enough..The art work itself is fantastic and amazing detail.The way they just handled the whole project, was amazing, my boys first tattoo at 16 with parental permission, and all handled correctly with Identification and forms filled out..Seriously thank-you for making his journey such a amazing first one...It looks amazing and your studio is the cleanest I’ve ever seen.Will be back for mine, when back in the USA 🇺🇸These guys are fantastic....

Bryan was my artist. I got my tattoo done around June this year. I asked for 6 stars on my lower stomach with thick outlines, no shading. When I saw the tattoo when it was done there was shading on the inside and the lines are not straight. I wanted to wait to write this review to see how the tattoo healed and maybe if it grew on me. I still don’t like it, im unhappy with it. I wish he would have done only the lines like I asked him to.

Went in for 3 piercings and Im very happy with the service I received. I talked to Keysten yesterday over the phone and went in to get my piercings done with him today and I have to say this guy is a professional through and through. Quick and painless piercings and hes very knowledgeable. I was in and out and Im very satisfied with the job he did. Highly recommend this place and their prices are great as well. Thanks a ton.

Angry Elephant is an awesome place to get your ink. The facility is clean and the sanitation practices are top notch. The staff is friendly and I would come here again. Ask for Stef, she does awesome work with crisp lines.

I went to several places to quote tattoos and they really exceeded my budget. Until I got to this place, the guys were all super friendly and very nice. They didnt have a no and they attended me exactly the same day, the best price and treatment too. I would definitely return to this place, for future tattoos

I went in on Saturday to have a tattoo by Stef and oh my goodness did I fall in love with not only the tattoo, but also the way she worked. It was my first tattoo and she explained what was going on and what she was going to be doing. I don’t think I’d go to anyone else, and hopefully soon I’ll be scheduling another appointment with her for a new tattoo. She made sure the area was numb and kept moisturizing it as she went along tattooing each section. Such an amazing experience with her and the entire shop made you feel welcome. Highly recommend!

Miguel did an amazing job with my daughters Tiger Lily and Keysten had amazing customer service.

Getting a cover up. Miguel is doing a great job.

Just got a tattoo done by Napo, and I am definitely coming back! He did an awesome job and listened to every detail that I wanted done. Best tattoo place in Winter Haven! Napo is a very talented guy! Very pleased with my tattoo. The place is really clean, the atmosphere amazing and so is the service. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place

Great experience for my daughters first tattoo, professionalism and personalization to make sure we were 100% satisfied.

Miguel was my artist and he was amazing. He took time to make sure the piece was perfect. Very clean environment and friendly. I will definitely be sending people his way. Thank you for sharing your talent.

I got my first tattoo done here and my tattoo artist was amazing and was very light handed I even fell asleep I highly recommend going here 100/100 💯

Me and my husband decided to get matching tattoos. “King and Queen” on our hands. We were serviced by stephany. I have to say our experience was great! She was so welcoming, super clean, and detailed!! I definitely recommend her!

Spent the day with Stef getting an awesome shoulder/chest tattoo. Not only was she patient, but was totally ok with changing some of her initial design. Her customer service, artistry, and whole vibe is second to none. Would recommend her to others and I’ve already scheduled another session with her!

This is my second time going to Angry Elephant for a tattoo!! Napo is absolutely amazing with line work! I will never go anywhere else! Everyone there are so friendly!!

Awesome Tattoo shop. My tattoo artist, Napo, is the best portrait artist ever. Thank you 😊❣️

I absolutely LOVED stef! She had great vibes. Also kept her station clean! I had no clue what my vision was for my tattoo but she sketched something up and it was PERFECT! I’m going to her from now on.

Stefany was great! Everything sanitary, they make sure you’re comfy, & great to work with. Will be coming back

Love this shop everyone is super friendly! If you go definitely ask for Stef!!! She is an amazing artist super detailed, takes her time with you and cares about the craft of tattooing, you will see this in her work! I found her on IG and she’s done a Charmander thigh piece and she is finishing up a Studio Ghibli sleeve for me!

If you need a tattoo artists, I highly recommend Stefany!! Shes incredible! I got a mildly (very) painful tattoo from her and she did her best to joke and keep me from being in too much pain. Not to mention her work is incredible!!

Great customer service helped me with my issue of worrying with my piercing

Just got a tattoo here almost two weeks ago, just spent $130 at urgent care because it’s infected! Maybe instead of your artists being on their phone while doing a tattoo and using the same gloves to wipe my tattoo that you’re using to type or text on your phone. When you pay for a tattoo you expect for it to not be infected, seriously wish I would have never went here and went to my usual artist! Not to mention the floor is so dirty. Go to a nicer place to get your tattoo, and don’t take a risk with a new artist

Best tattoo shop I have ever been too. Alex does the best work possible and for a fair price. The atmosphere and ambiance made me feel right at home. I’d highly recommend to anyone looking for some good detailed ink.

Stef did an amazing job! Such a welcoming environment and staff, which made it so comfy!

Do not come here if you want a custom piece to stay custom. Steph, one of the artists here will charge a custom commission piece and take the stencil and copy over to multiple people. They were also late to the appointment. Art work itself is good, unfortunately not worth the hassle.

Unfortunately, their first impression was unprofessional, uncomfortable, and unaccommodating. I called first, spoke to someone, and after speaking with a staff member (receptionist, Ill assume), She told me to come at a specific time for the artist Miguel. We arrived at the shop there were three people there only one spoke and no Miguel. We were told we could wait, but after not even a couple of minutes, it was, oh, I dont want you to waste time waiting because this not like him blah blah blah. 🤨So as a fellow business owner, if I tell a client a time, I make sure my staff is informed and there. Its called communication. They made it seem like they had warned him of client arrival, which is evident that they didnt even know if he was even coming into service people. We wasted time regardless and lost potential customers. But as they say, first impression are everlasting, and patronizing this business in the future is a negative.

So pleased with my experience at Angry Elephant today. Napo did a great job. Im already thinking of what he could do next for me. Nice to have an experienced and talented tattoo artist local. You guys are great. 👍😎

My Tattoo artist is name Jehzel Ortiz..He did a wonderful job on my Tattoo I Love it and everyone that sees it loves it.. Very professional and good atmosphere.. If you are thinking about getting a tattoo go check him out, I promise u will be happy with the work.

Stef is an amazing artist!!! She did so good! I couldn’t be happier with my tattoo!

Better than aces ink

Napo does the best work!

Literally the best place to get piercings. I got my first set done here. The environment is very chill and the people actually wants to get to know you.

Great Shop, love the art work.

Visited Angry Elephant for the first time to get my tongue repierced. The process was very quick, so quick to where I didn’t have time to even process the pain. The piercer was friendly and explained the process and after care in full detail. Definitely recommend this shop for your piercing needs.

I came in on a Friday and had Miguel do a tattoo for me. He was awesome. Very patient, took his time making sure it was right, wud highly recommend, will b back!

Stef was amazing to work with! Her art is absolutely beautiful! Will definitely be back again soon!

Yesterday my friends and I got tattooed by @Stef_tattoos ( her instagram ). She was so nice and made it a fun, comfortable experience for us. 10/10 will go back to her. All of our tattoos came outperfect !

So professional and such good workmanship. I was on the table for 3 1/2 hours and when Napo was done with my tattoo it was perfect. I walked away with a great appreciation of workmanship and quality.

Miguel tatted my neck and it turned out amazing got me looking great now

The people who work here are Very judgemental I went here to get a consultation and when I left I felt horribleThey should be more professional and not judge people who come there for work but After I realized what was going on I just walked out I would not recommend them When it comes to the Customer service aspect of the job they don’t know what that is.

Kasey was personable and made us feel welcomed. Took his time and made room for us (3 walk-ins). Clean and friendly environment

Excellent work a very clean place and stefany a very good person I recommend her 1000% a nice and cozy place go and ask for stefany and she will treat you the best an excellent person and a great artist. excellent job.

Brought my daughter in for an industrial piercing. He made her feel very comfortable. Very friendly. She didnt even flinch!

Excellent experience, Napo is an incredible, amazing artist. I highly recommend him if you want an awesome tattoo.

Very chill and relaxing place to get some ink work done. Staff is great. I only come here to get anything done

I got a tattoo done by Bryan here. I had a crazy amount of stuff I wanted crammed into it and he made it work. Its better than i envisioned. I will be going back to get more.

Literally walked in with my friend and they didn’t even welcome us they were so awkward and barely said a word to us literally to the point where we just walked out ! It was the most unprofessional tattoo shop I’ve ever been in and oh my friend posted a review and they deleted it immediately because they know it’s TRUE !

I love this place so much I come once a week to get either a tattoo or a piercing !!!! 1000/10 recommend this location over any other tattoo place in Polk county or let alone any tattoo shop !!

I got my cartilage done and wouldn’t have wanted to go anywhere else! Felt very comfortable and everything was very clean! Thank you!!

I went to Joe and he did an amazing job. The shop itself was very nice and clean. Very friendly atmosphere

Bryan is AMAZING. Super helpful and made me feel very comfortable getting my first tattoo.

Great place, great people, I feel safe coming here every time I come in.
