Got my first tattoo here several years ago as a Vegas tourist. I had a general idea of what I wanted, but no specific design. When I went into the shop, I found a piece of flash on the wall and Johnny went to work. I was happy with it then, but now know that the quality wasn't great.
Not sure if Johnny phoned it in since I was just a tourist getting some shitty flash tattooed or if his skills just aren't up to par... Either way, I wouldn't go back. There are too many great artists in Vegas to risk another mediocre tattoo (which I have now had covered up).
I got it in my head back in September that I wished to get a tattoo! Me! the girl who always said NEVER! Â My sisters and I headed to Vegas for a well deserved girl trip! I suggested they get ink too! We visited a few other locations and did our homework when we went to Atomic to see how they greeted us! We were pleasantly greeted by Johnny Vegas and Paul P. Â The four of us are not the regular customers they see entering their establishment (think rather than Gen X more like Geritol!) But still fun!
We asked a few questions and they answered them all perfectly. the prices were reasonable for the area, the place looked clean and they had decent reviews online.
We left, talked it over and called later in the week to get our appointments. We came in for our ink, met with Paul and described what we wished to have done. Within only 15 minuted he had them all drawn up. A few minor adjustments and I was in the chair for my first ever ink experience! I think I had been so looking forward to it I was not afraid of pain. The location of my ink is on the inside of my wrist.. The outline was a bit of a sting but by the time he got to the colors and details I was so fascinated watching the process I forgot about the sting. The end result is exactly what I was looking for. Now after a week of healing it looks superb! My sisters tattoos are just as great and we are all very pleased with the outcome!
The after care instructions were very clear and easy to follow too!
My hat is off to Paul and the gang. we were treated really well and I would recommend this location to anyone wanting a tattoo in Las Vegas.
This place is awesome!!! Â
A group of friends and I went to Vegas for the weekend and wanted to get tattoos while we were out. Â We were pressed for time so all 3 of us couldn't get tatted here. Â However one other friend and I, did, it was awesome! Â
Monk was our artist; he was simply amazing! Â He was very detailed, yet quick! Â The prices are awesome but the laughs are even better! Â

I love you MONK!
