Golden Rule Tattoo

I recently got a tattoo done here by Stephanie Flannery. She is new to the shop and she did an absolutely astonishing job on an old school style tattoo on my arm (her main style is portraits). I am very very happy with the work i had done here. The lines are straight, shading is good, colors are vibrant....just all around quality work that I am very happy with. I would trust her to do any style of tattoo. Don't listen to any of the negative reviewers...one didn't speak up and wasn't specific about what she wanted, and another didn't even get ink done there. This place is A+. I will definitely be revisiting.

This tattoo shop has to be one of the best tattoo shops I have ever visited. I was so glad that I found this place and that I was able to see all of the artist work before picking who I wanted for my piece. I asked for a simple mandala outline and gave pictures of a similar tattoo that I have saved on my phone. Paul was awesome and personalized my tattoo so that I make mine one of a kind an unique. I was very pleased with the little touches that he used on the sketch.
His work is incredible and I plan on using him for future pieces especially for color. He is very professional and made me feel comfortable during my 1hour session.
He also took about 5 minutes to clean the area prior to starting on my tattoo.
I had previously called other tattoo shops for estimates/times/ hours however they were not helpful at all.
I like that this tattoo shops has normal business hours and doesn't try to make you guess when they're open like Black Lantern Tattoo. I got the run around with this particular shop and tried to stop by several times however they were "closed" with a sign that read "we are ALMOST always open". Not professional AT ALL
Anyway, Golden Rule has amazing artist and I am in LOVE with my new piece:)
Can't wait for my next tattoo! :)

First tattoo. My friend and I were pretty excited. We should have researched things better. Her tattoo was going to be large and couldn't be done on her neck, so it made her rethink things. I knew exactly what I wanted, but somehow in the discussion got talked out of what I wanted by the tattoo guy. He drew an excellent design, but he convinced me to do it facing the world instead of something I could read (personal to me, not the rest of the world). Five minutes after I walked out, I knew I hated it and was researching ways to get it removed. The tattoo had personal meaning to me. Done in reverse where I can't read it, it means nothing.  This guy knows how to draw and he knows how to tattoo, but he should leave his thoughts and opinons to himself. Kicking myself for listening to him and now having to pay for a very expensive treatment to get it removed.
