Eagles Tattoos Studio & School

Was interested in getting a substantially large piece done on my left side. Something that of flowers with music tied in.  Sat with the owner and his assistant and came up with a gorgeous tattoo with orchids, and three measures of music in treble clef to be placed across the center of the flower image... Totally gorgeous.  Additionally, was looking for a small tattoo on my wrist of I love you in sign language. That one took way less time, just about 10 minutes, and after healing it looks great! Still holding off on the big piece to save up some money....All it took was sharing a bit of my ideas and the artists were willing and happy to work with me, on placement and everything (and by the way, that took several tries, of placing, and replacing, because I am particularly picky.)  I found they had patience, and were great to work with, which the other reviewers I feel like would disagree. Definitely go see for yourself. I know I don't regret it. Plus they have great prices.

First, there are many different levels of simplicity and style of tattoos. Obviously.

But this place is only good and capable of doing your run of the mill "I'm 19 and want old english letters on bicep" type s#it. Good. Go get that simple ass "three myspace stars" tattoo.

Odds are this is your first or second tattoo. If its not, you either prefer not exactly original work, or you are about to make a mistake.

Stay away from this place! Seriously.

I got my first tattoo here the other day... and it was a nightmare. The whole process was rushed (that should have been the first clue- i should have walked right out the effing door). They finished up with the guy before me and hurried me in. I felt like I was on a conveyor belt.

I told the woman what I wanted and she just turned away from me and mumbled, "I know". I tried to explain because the design could be a little confusing- it's Korean characters and she wasn't Korean... So I was just trying to help her out. She then tried to put the transfer on my skin (the stencil that they follow when putting the ink on your skin). I told her "excuse me, I want it a little lower. And that's not facing the right way." and she act like I just insulted her ancestors (I really wanted to be like, "AHEM!!!! Listen *****, this is going on MY skin, so I'm going to tell you WTF *I* want- don't act like *I* am the one doing it wrong"). So after setting her straight she started to work. And this is where it just gets WORSE. (WHY THE HECK DIDN'T I JUST LEAVE?!?!?!?!?!)

So she starts to draw the lines and I'm thinking "dude... this doesn't even hurt! Actually... it tickles.." then as she continues it starts to pinch- it;s kind of a hair raising sensation- and I have to look away because I start freaking out a little bit). About ten minutes later she looks at me and says, "stop being so tense. the ink isn't working." WTFFFFFFFFF. I look down and I'm like "WHAT????" I'm more perplexed than anything- ther are lines on my skin, but they really aren't solid. Like... at all. And wtf- you're digging a needle with ink into my skin- if my skin isn't taking it- I think it's your fault. So another ten minutes and she says she's done. I look at it- I mean. it's okay from a distance- but totally lackluster.

I end up paying and leaving- I'd rather go somewhere else to get it FIXED RIGHT than have this woman dig her way into my veins. I immediately call Vanh's tattoo (I will review that next) and tel them I'm coming in to get his fixed- no matter the cost.

Seriously- save yourself the trouble. DO NOT GO HERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. MY EXPERIENCE IS BAD ENOUGH. A TATTOO BUSINESS SHOULD NEVER HAVE EVEN ONE UNSATISFIED CUSTOMER. The workmanship was crappy- ENOUGH SAID. Plus, after seeing Vanh's- this place wouldn't even be my last resort. LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE!!!!!!
