there are quite a few martinsburg tattoo shops but this is the only one I would reccommend. Â i like that they sell crazy clothes, platform shoes, jewelry and makeup here, too.
i had a friend doing the piercings here who was fabulous but has since moved. Â the owner kim, does great piercings. Â
i've gotten a full upper arm piece done by Erikka who is also no longer there. Â she did a custom piece for me inspired by Salvador Dali's elephants. Â I went back to get the background done by Matt and our appointment was cut short, but what he did was great. Â I enjoyed singing along to Tenacious D while he worked.
most people who go in there get script, flash, and little angels all day long. Â anyone in there is sufficient for these simple tattoos. Â if you want a portrait or something more detailed ask for Matt. Â he's award-winning and extremely talented. Â his portraits are some of the best i've seen. Â tip him heavily, he deserves it.
the guys all in there joke around with eachother and joke around with the customers, too, so it's a nice relaxed atmosphere. Â some of the guys annoyed me because their sense of humor was based around mocking and teasing, but, whatever. Â typical guys. Â
the place is clean and friendly. Â will be back soon to finally finish my arm hopefully!
