This place is now called tattoos next to checkers on Shady Grove road.
I do not know how they are even in business unless they are completely off the health inspectors radar. So filthy and nasty inside I had to check myself for bed bugs when I walked out. The tattoo chair is an office chair.
The guy who was working had a glazed over look in his eyes. Maybe it was the bad smell or the filthy carpet or the nicotine stained ceiling causing this or maybe he does more than tattoo?
Guys clean up your space and I am sure you will get more business. A fresh coat of paint and carpet removal can't cost that much.
I really dont think anyone should go to Tattoo Graphics to get anything done. I got a tattoo from here and it looked pretty strange afterward and when it started to heal I got these little white bumps all over it. And thats defintly not supposed to happen. Needless to say, I ended up covering it up with a koi tattoo that I got done at Ambrotos in Silver Spring. Plus, the guy that did my tattoo was a little weird, I think he might have been on something. He kept shaking. I will probably never go back.
Review Source:I got my first tattoo here when I turned 18. I've since gotten 11 more so I think that I've "been around the block".
This place and Inkers were basically the only places within a reasonable driving distance. There was only 1 person manning the place. He wasn't very talkative and didn't offer any suggestions or anything of the sort.
The tattoo came out all funky looking. He stayed within the lines and all of the basic stuff, but there were areas where he clearly went deeper than he should have and other areas where he didn't go deep enough. I had a friend touch it up about a year later. His speed was also lacking. It took about 3 hours for something that should've taken a little less than 2.
Boo on this place.
