    This is a double thumbs down for Yelp reviewers and William Thidemann:

    Miranda writes she has removed my review "because it lacks firsthand customer experience at this business."  I WAS THE PAYING CUSTOMER.  Booooo on Yelp.  Booo on Miranda.  Boo on William for shoddy work, then still trying to nickle and dime me for time not spent on this piece (how much was it, Bill?  Over $2k, not quite 3 after tips you should have never gotten).  Here's Miranda's response and my review which has been removed.  I expect when Yelp contacts me next about this, you'll either re-post my original review, or give me an email address / phone number I can use to contact you to tell you "in person" my review shouldn't have been taken down - IT IS LEGITIMATE from a paying customer.

    Hi G,

    We wanted to let you know that we've removed your review of Kaze Gallery. Our Support team has determined that it falls outside our Content Guidelines (<a href="http://www.yelp.com/guidelines">http://www.yelp.com/guid…</a>) because it lacks a firsthand customer experience at this business.

    We hope you will continue to participate on Yelp, while keeping in mind our Content Guidelines.

    WOULD YOU WANT LIMO SERVICE FROM AN ALCOHOLIC?

    I found William Thidemann at Th'Ink Tank, researched him & found he did great work. I set up an appointment (LONG wait), and in 3 months, Kaze notified me he moved there, and did I want to keep my appointment. I got a great feeling from William, and was impressed with the beginning of the tat, though it cost real money. A couple of sessions, William swore he started earlier than he did. Also, though he claimed from the get go he only charges while he's inking, he'd take smoke breaks & the end price was often inflated. 5 sessions later, he effed up bad & claims it's exactly what I asked for. Art being subjective, it's hard to say what's good. The black "clouds" were his suggestion though, are complete slop that don't resemble clouds, and I'm sure the only fix is to have them completely removed. The rest of the large tat is hit & miss, & will probably never be finished. I'd been dreaming of a work of art on my body, & now I'm embarrassed to even mention it.

    My suggestion: Check out the reviews. Go somewhere else. If you INSIST on using Mr. Thidemann, do your best to ensure he's not smoking while doing your work, prescription or not.

    Regards,

    Kaze Gallery is an art gallery AND a tattoo shop!  Home to Sandi Calistro,  William Thidemann and sweet, sweet Jenny Lee.  

    I have had the pleasure of working with Jenny Lee on a beautiful tattoo/cover-up piece that she is doing on my back.  Love her!!  And I really love the Gallery as well.  It's in a great location, right around the corner from Root Down.  But best of all it's nice and private. You don't feel like 50 people are staring at you while you're getting your work done.  Not that I mind, but I really enjoy the more intimate setting.  

    All tattoos are by appointment only and they book pretty far out, so be prepared to wait.  It's definitely worth it though!!
