Testimonials

Crissie is above and beyond professional. She helped me figure out exactly what I wanted forever on my body. Her line work is amazing, her tone is constantly professional, and the shop is immaculate. I highly recommend her and her shop.

Absolutely Loved This Store! I got my very first tattoo from this shop and I am absolutely in love with how it turned out. Most definitely will be back there to receive my second tattoo because I just know it will be. Thank you so much!
