Jack was absolutely amazing with my arm pit tattoo. One of those just show up see if I can get an appointment got me right in within a couple days. The pain felt so good. I will definitely be back for more!!!!

On 4/22/2025 Matthew Honaker had this to say:
Had my tattoo done by Liam, very nice atmosphere. All the artists seem to really make it a point to enable each other in a positive way. I do like how everyone made it a point to check in with each other and see how they were doing. At one point I saw them set up a privacy booth for someone who was getting a tattoo in a discreet area. You should visit even if you aren’t getting a tattoo done. I edited it so you could see more of the tattoos I have had done by Liam.
