The artist I use most moved to Dermagraph Ink a few months ago. I am sooo glad he did!!!! Everyone in the shop makes a person feel right at home, such a clean and comfortable shop!!
I got several tattoos the same day, different artists, what FUN!!! Heather did my neck tattoo, she was so light handed, I almost fell asleep while she was working! She did an EXCELLENT job on the art!!! I will use her again!
On my second tattoo of the day, it was an anatomical heart on my chest, using the artist I always use, Adam, which did an AWESOME job!! Adam and I have more art in the works!
While doing these two tattoos, Justin (the owner), Heather and I got to talking about doing a tattoo on my toes. You know, what to get, what would be fun. Justin came up with a great funny idea of a truck on the toe, therefore being a toe truck!! Loved it, had Heather do it, loving it!!!
Its a wonderful, open, clean, friendly place to go. The artists will sit with you and really work with you to get you the tattoo you want, the way you want it.. I will recommend this shop and these artists to anyone wanting ink! Â You guys ROCK!!! Thank you!!!!
I got my first tattoo years ago from Justin. I want to get it touched up and he will totally be the one to do it. Truth be told, this review is actually because my friend got a cover up and it was INSANE (in a good way) looking.
First off, as a BFF, i might have white lied on how cool it looked back in the day. You know, you don't want to hurt their feelings and then when you are honest, you do. She's my BFF, so she understands.
Justin looked at her lion tattoo and then looked at some images he has compiled to get a similar looking one. This process was pretty fast. He found one that would cover up quite nicely. He added some awesome detailing and that crappy version of a lion is now gone.
it's quite gorgeous and he did it all in one sitting. He had the skill and knowledge to make it pretty amazing in a short amount of time.
Also, the radio mix he has in the shop is SOOOOOO legit. I was pretty occupied groovin' to all kinds of music.
Justin, I'll get back to you soon! I'm excited for all the things you have planned for the shop!
I got my second tattoo ever done today by Justin, the shop owner. He was awesome. Friendly, relaxed and professional, he clearly knew exactly what he was doing. The shop itself was spotless and sterile, and the price was very fair for the work my design was going to take. I felt very confident that I was in good hands all around.
The procedure took about an hour. Justin was incredibly friendly and chatted with me throughout, keeping my mind off of any discomfort I was feeling as he filled in the color on my new shoulder piece.
After we were done, he gave me detailed instructions on how to take care of the piece.
I couldn't have been happier with how everything went. I've found *the* new place to get ink, and I will happily recommend Justin and his shop to all of my friends.
This was my first time getting a tattoo and Justin made me feel completely comfortable with my experience. The shop is well-lit in a good neighborhood and is adorned with lots of cool designs and a very friendly bird. Our design consultation went really well; he got a great sense of what I wanted and offered ideas based off my request to deliver a tattoo I am proud to show anyone.
Justin is adept at an array of styles and designs. I would recommend Dermagraphink to anyone who wants a quality piece or piercing. Their rates are reasonable, their expertise is superior and the final product is something you will be pleased with!
Amazing, AMAZING!!!!! Justin and Heather both are not just tattoo artists they are artists in every form of the word! Their tattoos truly come to life, it really is amazing how three dimensional and life like they make things look. My husband, my daughter and I all have pieces from both Justin and Heather that will blow your mind. I have a Tiffany charm to match my Tiffany and Co. bracelet and it's literally impossible to tell the difference between the tattoo and the real charm it's so life like. My husbands family crest has so much tiny detail people stare at it endlessly in awe of the masterpiece. His latest piece is a work in progress since it's such a large piece yet he gets complimented on it numerous times a day, the funny part, it's only the outline! Can't wait for it to be finished and then see their face's prices are nothing compared to what you get in return, definitely worth every penny and then some!! I'm a germaphobic and the shop is very clean and well taken care of. Everyone who works there is so friendly it feels like home. We drove 6 hours just to get our work done by them. If you want a real piece of art and not just some random tattoo, check out Dermagraphink!!!!!
Review Source:Best shop and Artists I've ever dealt with. After years of never finding a proper artist or respectable shop I finally met Justin and was completely blown away by his ability and professionalism. The shop is always clean and has amazing art! I have about 3/4 of a sleeve done by Justin and I can't wait to finish!
Review Source:I had my first two tattoos ever done by Heather. I was surprised that it did not hurt as much as I expected. Both of my tattoos were originally drawn by other artists, and Heather did a fantastic job creating accurate stencils. I always get compliments on my tattoos.
The shop is well-lit and has a friendly atmosphere. Definitely woman-friendly.
I went in to the shop after seeing such great reviews because I am kinda new to the valley. I just want to get my half sleeve to actually be more complete since I had spaces in between two pieces I have. I spoke with Justin and he had great ideas. I checked his portfolio and approved! I think he did a great job in putting my tattoos together. His schedule was open so he got to work on the spot. The reason for the 4 not 5 stars is that I prefer to have my tattoo sessions in  private. I don't mind the other artists coming in but there were a few of his friends that came in. If I can set up something private I will definitely come back, Justin is a talent and very creative! Thats just my preference though on the privacy thing.
Highly reccomended
I just got a tattoo done by Justin tonight and it was such a cool experience. I don't normally write Yelp reviews (in fact, this is my first one) but I truly think Dermagraphink deserves one. I've had a few tattoos done previously and didn't have the most amazing experience with a couple of them, so I decided to google and Yelp Dermagraphink. I talked to Justin on the phone to make an appointment and right off the bat he was super nice and comfortable to talk to. I didn't have the tattoo design fully completed but he was extremely patient and easy going about making changes, fixing things, etc. The tattoo itself took an hour and a half and it's quite worth it, it is beautifully done and I'm so happy with the results. Not only does the tattoo look amazing, the people at this place are wonderful and a pleasure to talk with. Thank you Justin, and I'm sure I'll be going back for more tattoos!
Review Source:I had an absolutely wonderful experience getting my tattoo here. Â My tattoo was of Cambodian characters and I really wanted a female tattoo artist for this one. Â So I found Heather's work online and talked to her on the phone and she made me feel really comfortable with everything. Â I showed up to the tattoo place and she was wonderful and even did some research to check out any significance in the stroke of the letters, etc. It was fairly painless and everyone there is super nice. Â I went back for a touch up and it's just looks amazing!
Review Source:I got a long awaited, long overdue tat from Justin and he ROCKED IT!
I'm so happy with my new piece, I knew he wouldn't disappoint. After researching different artists on Yelp, I knew I'd found my new go-to guy for tats.
I haven't  had any ink in a long while for 2 reasons:
1) I can't afford it Â
2) I don't trust just anyone, to mark my body for life.
For me, the tattoo artist absolutely must Be an ARTIST and not just a tattooist. Justin Lewis fits the bill for both. His prices are reasonable and his skill is nothing short of awesome!
My tat could have easily turned into a coloring book flash piece from the wall, but Justin made it look so realistic with his attention to detail and his amazing color/shading techniques.
4 stars because:
Even with an appointment, he had me wait 30 minutes, above my 20 minute tardiness, without my stencil or his station ready. He apparently had to deal with a personal issue on the phone and as each moment passed, I began getting more and more anxious. Once he was ready and greeted me, I became relaxed and comfortable like I was talking to an ol' buddy. His demeanor is so chill, friendly and easy going despite whatever drama he was dealing with.
Also, because I had a little bit of a freak out about the aftercare instructions. I followed the paper instructions of not applying anything other than hot water. No ointment! Not even A&D which I have used very successfully without scabbing on my other 3 large pieces. The instructions caused my tattoo to heal very painfully, with extreme dryness, cracking & bleeding. At one point, I thought it was infected so, I called Justin and he told me to put a minimal amount of hand lotion on it. I told him I would text him some photos to get his opinion, and I never got a response or a follow up :( Well, despite his recommendation, I did some Internet research and rectified the problem by 1) gently washing it with antibacterial soap.....ahhhhhh 2) Applying A&D until the scabbing was mostly gone...ahhhhhhhhh and 3) applying Aveno Natural lotion until fully healed....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
All in all, I would definitely get more work from him (when I could afford it!) and I would absolutely recommend him to others. Personally, I'll just make sure not to book anything post tattoo time and just do what works for me on the aftercare bit.
I can hear it now....buzzzzzzzz buzzzzzzzz. GET YOURS!!!
I decided to get my first tattoo so after few hours of looking around online I landed on DermagraphInk...their portfolio pictures got me excited so I decided to give them a visit. Heather and Chris greeted me kindly and excitedly when I stepped into the door even though it was late. I discussed what I wanted with heather, so two weeks later I went back and she came up with something more amazing than I could have asked for. Got my tattoo done quickly and enjoyably and she knew her ways around color and shading. Thank you, Heather. See you again soon!
Review Source:Justin and heather are both awesome artist! they have done all of my ink, they make everyone feel welcome and thats very important i think, because ive been to other shops and its just not like that!! Â not to mention, its also a art gallery. so check them out tell them your ideas and they will hook you up!! they are very well rounded on all styles of ink!!
Review Source:Justin n Heather are the sh*t!!!
Justin can take an idea u might have kickin around yer skull, n turn it into a masterpiece!
I've been getting my work done by Justin for about 5 or 6 yrs now (He's been tattooing all over the world for the past 20yrs or so). He's amazing! Super clean, n professional. All the stuff i got from him is super detailed, and he's works really fast, compared to other artists i've had work done by, and since tattoos are usually an hourly rate, that saves me mad cash!!!!
Heather is another amazing artist. I just got a couple tattoos from Heather and i love them!
