Keeping it brief: Excellent shop, extremely welcoming people, clean as can be, stylish, comfortable vibe, good music, and excellent artists from what I've seen (worked with Rae my first time but all of the portfolios were quite amazing).
The long of it: John was the reason I took the time to look in to the shop. He answered all of my tedious questions (I am used to Southern California shops which can be either great or fairly sketchy but in both cases, most seem to show very little customer service). Seriously, the dude (John) responds in no time at all, he's courteous, and--where many shops fail--actually sends back an informed, customer-oriented correspondence. Well done.
Karen is equally friendly, talented in the work I've seen, and gave me an honest opinion on my piece when I was going back and forth on sizing, etc. to leave enough space to work with later; balanced chick and as I understand she does some charitable work for breast cancer victims.
Finally, Rae did a killer job on detail even when I decided to compromise on the size a bit. She's kickass with a great deal of talent, a sense of humor, and makes you feel right at home in the shop.
5 stars, no doubt.
Note: This was not my first tattoo but it was my first piece in Colorado and at this shop. I plan to finish additions to the piece here and my wife will more than likely be scheduling two pieces with Rae soon!
Fantastic tattoo parlor! I have never had a tattoo, but I decided to get permanent eyeliner done for the first time at Heebee Jeebees Studio. The owner, Karen, has been doing permanent makeup, including eyeliner tattoos, for 19 years! Of course, she doesn't do permanent eyeliner every single day, probably every couple of days or every other day. Anyway, she's good. She's really good! I would say that she's the best in Colorado Springs, possibly in all of Colorado. I asked her why she doesn't have permanent eyeliner done, and she told me that it's because she hasn't found anyone else that she trusts well-enough in the Colorado Springs area to do her eyeliner since she can't do it herself (she's done all of her other tattoos, except for that).
She used lidocaine numbing cream on my eyes, which made the pain minimal (it kind of felt like slightly pinchy "butterfly kisses" on my eyelids, if that makes sense). If you have done any research on permanent eyeliner, you have probably come across people recommending lidocaine numbing cream over numbing shots on the eyes because the numbing shots can cause swelling and bruising before the tattoo is even placed on the eyelids, which means the results can be uneven and less than satisfactory.
Anyway, I just love my permanent eyeliner. Touch-ups are free (included in the price). Â It's so worth it!
Was looking for a place to get a large (half body practically) custom tattoo completed. Â I had looked at a few places and then my other half and I went a couple more. Â We found Heebee Jeebees Studio and went in to check them out.
The first thing I noticed was how clean, bright and welcoming the interior was. Â This was a nice change from the darker, danker looking shops that abound in the area.
The next good surprise was we were greeted instantly by Karen - who we later found out is the owner of the studio. Â She was very welcoming and when I described my idea to her, she immediately helped me form a more complete picture of what I needed.
I had expected to have to wait for an appointment to begin, but Karen asked that we give her an hour to work up some preliminary sketches for the tattoo and come on back to begin.
During my first session (as it will probably be many before the tatoo is done) Karen and the other people at the studio made me and my partner comfortable and welcomed. Â Karen worked with me to make sure I was comfortable and ready to continue as we worked on getting the lining and shading in the first part of the piece.
The other great thing was the price. Â I am very happy seeing part of my piece completed in better detail than I imagined and the hourly change was extremely reasonable compared to other shops in the area.
The shop does not limit the art style and is very open to helping get your custom design fleshed out (no pun intended). Â Flash tats are also welcomed and they have many to browse through.
If your loooking for a tattoo that you will be proud to show off at a reasonable cost, stop in and see any of the people here. Â They'll take good care of you!
