Went in with my friend to watch her get a basic tattoo on her foot, and the artist Rachel was extremely rude and told me to fuck off because I was interested in becoming a tattoo artist and called it a "tattoo gun" instead of a "tattoo machine". Â Horrible bedside manner, condescending, and an average skilled artist. Â Better off going somewhere else. Â Will never go back.
Review Source:i walked into auspicious tattoo a little after 6 on a friday night (their sign says they close at 6ish). i really wanted a tattoo on the inside of my finger. reed was upfront in the middle of drawing a design but took the time to talk to me about the disadvantages of the finger tattoo (blow out, fade out, etc). Â
he didn't have time to do the tattoo (which i still wanted) so he called up rachel. she was at home but came over just to do my tattoo. the process was quick and i love it! she was really friendly and the tattoo turned out amazing! if i wasn't from california i would definitely go back to her!
overall they were friendly, informative, and went out of their way to make sure i got my tattoo done that night. highly recommend!
I drove from Maryland to get tattooed by Rachel Schilling, and this shop is phenomenal! Rachel did an absolutely phenomenal job on my tattoo, and I couldn't be happier. I own two Rachel Schilling original paintings, both of which are also beautiful (and they sell art in the shop, so even if you aren't up for a tattoo, check out the art).
All the artists are so friendly and helpful, and Rachel was totally willing to work with me for MONTHS before I actually came in. She let me make a deposit way in advance, and even make additional payments. She worked with me the whole way and created a final product that is absolutely stunning.
I highly, highly recommend any one of the amazing artists working here. The artists here, at least in my experience with Rachel, are dedicated to their craft and passionate. I cannot stress how happy I was with the outcome of my piece, and the entire experience itself. As someone who has a number of tattoos, I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for good work at a good price.
