Rob Smith has been my only tattoo artist for the past 13 yrs. Now he is putting tattoos on my daughters. I wouldn’t want anybody else putting ink on my girls but him. Very talented, keeps all his equipment clean & sterilized. Rob has 20 yrs experience and has mastered his skills over the years. We booked our appointments a year in advance, definitely worth waiting for.
Hands down the most professional tattoo shop that I’ve ever stepped foot in. Rob, Vanessa, Zach & Tye are easy to deal with, very personable, and they make you feel comfortable. That means a lot. I highly recommend paying them a visit!
I went in to get a couple of cartilage re-piercings because the holes had closed. Vanessa was friendly and answered my many, many questions! She also asked follow up questions to fully understand what I was asking, which I appreciated. She gave great input when I asked, and I decided to get a conch as well! I will definitely return when I’m ready for my next piercing!
