Natalie Gallagher2023-07-30I would 100% recommend this place to anyone wanting a tattoo!! The customer service is beyond spot on. My friend and I wanted to get tattoos but could only do it on a certain day, and Anna, our tattoo artist offered to come in on her day off!! She was so kind to do this for us. She was very insightful when it came to our tattoos. Not only was she helpful but she was hilarious as well, she made our day. She made us feel at ease and the tattoo process itself was very fast. 10/10 would recommend Anna!!
