I had a super experience at Dark Horse. I called to make a consultation appointment and was told just to come on in any time before 7 p.m. I was there in 15 minutes & talked to Kat. She was very nice and personable and told me with the style of my tattoo I'd be better off with Jon, who happened to be right there. I talked to Jon and explained the changes I wanted on the image and he really listened to what I was saying. (ok and he called me "sweetie, which I totally love). I paid my deposit, made an appointment for the next week and went on my merry way. The day before the appointment Steve called to remind me of my appointment (I've NEVER had a tattoo place do that - nice touch, y'all) and then Jon called to let me know he had my drawing complete and that I would love it. he was right. the drawing was amazing, and proved he was listening to what I wanted.
Jon not only drew up a great image, he has a great touch and the tattoo turned out great, and was over way before I thought it would be. Jon explained after care (although this wasn't my 1st tattoo, so I didn't need too much help in that vein) he also told me to come back (within 90 days) if I need any touch ups, which I would expect from a good tattoo place.
The shop was VERY clean, and I like the way it's set up (individual rooms, but the walls don't go all the way to the ceiling so you can kind of hear what else is going on in the shop).
I would not hesitate to go back, and I would not hesitate to recommend this place to friends.
Thanks Kat, Jon and Steve for a great all-around experience. See you soon!
They do good work at this place. Â Kat is a good artist but not a great conversationalist and can come off as arrogant at times. Â The staff is very helpful and Steve is a great guy and the face of DHT. Â
The only thing I really don't care for is their method of pricing. Â The artist essentially comes up with the price for the work and it can vary from person to person that comes in. Â
They do stand behind their work, so if something needs to be touched up, they are more than willing to go and touch it up. Â
If not knowing if you're getting the same price as someone else doesn't bother you, then I would recommend this place as they do good work.
The staff was less than helpful, almost rude. Â Kat was just plain rude. Â I'm so glad we went somewhere else. Â There was one guy in the place (the bigger guy) that was anywhat helpful. Â Terrible service. Â No thanks. Â I'll drive the 45 minutes out of the way to go to Exposed Temptations.
