I just had a really little tattoo done here, just 3 words on my forearm. first, I'll say the artists were all pretty professional and the place seemed clean and nice.
however, I felt like since I was only getting a tiny tattoo, they weren't SO concerned with making it amazing. I feel like their main clientele are people getting massive, hours worth of labor tattoos. which is cool but I wasn't. I almost felt like a girlfriend who's boyfriend doesn't hold open doors for her if that makes sense? they were really nonchalant about the after care, took like 10 seconds to do it, and almost made me feel like I wasn't that important.
I have somewhat of an extensive experience with tattoo parlors since my friends think it's cool to drag me along and squeeze the shit out of my hand when they get theirs done so I know this place was pretty normal among tattoo places. They honestly did a good job I just feel like they could have done better with customer service, and since this was my first tattoo, I wanted to be babied a little which I guess doesn't happen even when you're paying them 60 dollars.
I walked in here on a whim (no appointment) on a Monday afternoon. Â I was promptly greeted and able to chat with a woman called Kaitlin about my design. Â I wanted something simple- just a couple words on my side. Â She said she could free hand the lettering and asked me to come back in an hour in a half (no problem I ate a sub at a shop up the street.). Â When I returned there was a camera crew from Spike TV that was doing a bit about a kid that had won a video game contest and was going to drive a race car in England. Â The guy was a really skinny dude who was getting a tattoo of the race track in England on his chest. Â I was impressed with my ability to find a place so legit they were on TV out of all the shops in Biffalo they could have picked. Â
Everyone there was friendly and chill. Â My tattoo came out awesome and I simply adore it. It was also cheaper then the tattoo I got 10 years ago. Â It wasn't a complicated design but the price was lower then I expected. Â Kaitlin was even really nice about my need to talk the whole time she was working cause it made me not think about the pain. Â Awesome place, I will defiantly go back.
