I have been  looking for an artist who I'm comfortable with and like the work of for a very long time. I went in just to talk to Flip (he is the artist of 4 people I know) and ended up booking an appointment for the following week. Being this was my first tattoo, I was very very nervous. He made me feel very comfortable, checked in with me through the whole thing, and it came out more beautiful then I could have imagined. He took my design idea and fit it beautifully to my body and personality. What is more, he patiently explained the aspects in the design I wanted that he thought I would not like and why. I put my trust in him about it, and I'm glad I did!  Not only do I LOVE my tattoos, but I'm so grateful I found an artist who cares more about the art then the prestige. He's a cool guy and he does great work!
Review Source:I got my first tattoo here last week. It's very small, and it only took Jen ten minutes to do. She was done so quickly, I didn't realize she was actually finished. The shop is very clean and cute, and Jen was so nice and friendly, she made what could have been a nerve-wracking experience really comfortable. I would highly recommend this place, they're very nice!
Review Source:I'm surprised by the amount of 5 star reviews this place has because going here, for a price quote, was one of the WORST experiences I've ever had at a tattoo parlor.
I have never met anyone as rude as (who I assume was) Flip. I knew that getting a quote might be difficult because I didn't not have my design printed out on paper, only a phone picture, but I did not expect to be dismissed and treated so poorly. Flip practically ripped me and my friends a new one and declared that even trying to price our tattoo from a picture would "f*ck us both over". He was so rude, I didn't even know how to respond.
A simple "I'm sorry, but I can't really  price this unless you give me a print out of actual size." would have sufficed but I guess making us feel extremely unwelcome was his goal today. Aside from that, he told us our piece wouldn't look good unless we made it into a FULL back piece which was definitely not what I was looking for while other shops were much more friendly and accommodating, and encouraged us that it was doable with a diameter of 4". If anything, I think it just shows that if a tattoo isn't his "style", he's going to treat you like sh*t and try to cheat you.
From a business standpoint, it seems highly unprofessional to treat your customer as such when they are willing to give you $100s to create art on their body that will last a lifetime. Especially if it's their first time your shop.
I definitely will never be coming back here again, nor will I suggest this place to my friends.
FIRST OFF: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
I've waited too long to write this review, and I have nothing but great things to say about this place!
Flip is a great artist! He understands what you are trying to do and knows exactly how to make it look the way you want it.
He's fast, friendly, the shop is clean, just a great experience.
BEST TATTOOS IN THE AREA
Went here last week for my very first tattoo and I am so happy with the entire experience. Â Flip was super helpful with taking my idea and making it into something that would translate well as a tattoo. Â He asked a lot of questions and made sure that we were on the same page before getting down to business. Â I really liked that it is such a small place, it keeps the experience personal and as a first timer I'm sure anything else would have intimidated me. Â
The tattoo itself is fucking beautiful. Â Do not hesitate to give this man creative control. Â Flip is an artist and I can hardly believe how well executed my tattoo is. Â I've gotten so many compliments, even from the tattoo skeptics in my life! Â Thank you Flip!
Flip is the man. Â I've never liked tattoos or even wanted one, but some events and stuff made me change my mind, but I was still extra nervous and cared a lot about what would be on me forever. Â
Flip was great, he took my drawing and made it into a viable tattoo, it was very impressive. Â He came highly recommended by a friend I trusted, and after the first session I knew I was in good hands. Â Still need to go back and get mine finished, but after a few sessions of a large back piece, I had to take some time off! Â He makes it as painless as it can be, but it was a very tender spot. Â
I'll eventually be back to get it finished and filled! Â 5 stars. Â I will never go anywhere else and the experience has made me already consider getting something additional in the future. Â
Give them a chat, see what they can do.
I was ready to get my first tattoo but after walking into LoveDog Tattoo Parlor, I was a little discouraged. One of the guys there was very unwelcoming, unexcited about my tattoo idea, and simply rude and cold. I timidly walked into Eights and Aces and immediately felt comfortable with Flip. My idea for a tattoo was pretty vague but when I went back in for my appointment Flip had drawn up a beautiful piece for me. (An orouboros) I felt comfortable enough to let him know that I was hoping for something a little different and on the spot, he drew exactly what I wanted and so much better than I could have imagined or hoped for. He is truly a talented guy.
Getting the tattoo was fun, he's super easy to talk to. Just a relaxed and nice, honest person. The place is pretty tiny, which is actually quite wonderful. It feels like a much more private and calm experience than I imagine it would be many other studios.
Great experience all around, highly recommend visiting Eights and Aces! Flip is the best! Will definitely go back to him for my next one!
This shop is clean and friendly. Ive gotten tattoes from Little (Jenny) for years and she always does a great job. If you're looking to get something big or detailed make sure to bring pictures in (clear pictures they can use, not pixelated junk) or else you'll be sent away to go get them and come back; which comes off as rude but it's only because they want to draw exactly what you want.
Review Source:A great tattoo parlor!!
"Little" did a wonderful job so far for myself and my better half Lori. All I can say about the tattoos is "Wow!!!" Just the friendliness of her and Flip while getting our tats done was just icing on the cake.
Anyone reading this can rest assured that you will be in good hands with "Little" or "Flip" Looking forward to the 27th!!
I had a wonderful experience working with Flip. I came to him with a design for my first tattoo and he transformed it into exactly what I wanted. During the actual appointment he made me feel totally comfortable and relaxed. We took breaks every 15 minutes or so and before I knew it (2 sessions, 1 hour each) I had a beautiful and unique tattoo that is pretty much flawless.
The shop is small (literally, very small) so you feel like you're getting a very personalized experience. Super friendly, super clean! I highly recommend Eights and Aces!
LITTLE !!
I adore this woman.
I asked my friends a good place to get a tatt. i just wanted a simple little lady bug and they suggest staircase...ok i find it. ew i left ASAP. I dont care how great of an artist you are, i dont want your bad attitude to be a memory as to when i got my little lady. So not worth my money.
ANYWAYS!!! i check out yelp. OH hey theyre the first to come up and right around the corner. I go in and find out min is only 60$ not $100. extra awesome i know a  50 cent lady but is not worth 100 even if it is on for the rest my life. Expensive does not make it quality.
I walk in and theres this cute little tattooed girl and i ask her if i can get a tattoo...like right now. and she was stoked and i told her i didnt have picture and i gave her a really vague description and she did exactly what i wanted.
Super Chill, Super Nice, Great Artist and Great Atmosphere. Exactly what i was looking for.
Thanks Little
Eights & Aces is a great shop. Tiny, but super clean and friendly! I haven't been tattooed by Flip, but his work looks great. Little Jenny (aka "Little") does AMAZING work and I will come back to her for all my future tattoos. I've even referred all my friends and family members. My mom is a huge fan too! You can't find more skilled or friendlier artists than the ones at Eights & Aces!!!
Review Source:Flip does such great work, and I agree, he gives the best cuddles. I always send my friends to Flip and between me, and the misses, he has tattooed us almost 15 times. You know what that means, there is plenty free space for new work, and I wouldn't let anyone but him do it (and not JUST for the cuddles).
Review Source:Flip has the magic touch. A real artist as well as a tattoo artist. He has amazed me with attention to detail and undertanding what I wanted. His eye for placement, composition and color is among the best I've ever seen. Â So far my tattoo is better than I could have hoped for. Highest possible recommendation.
