Update #1:
Second tattoo I get done here. Usually my skin looks like I'm about to go into anaphylactic shock after getting ink done, especially on medium to larger areas. Day 3 of healing and it's 60 percent there, no redness (how can this be?!), clean scabbing and minimal discomfort. I was tattooed by Graham Beech, who apparently does tattoos that are licked on by kittens. Eric is no longer there, but I recommend Graham. need more stimulus? he is also devastatingly handsome.
I've gotten 2 tattoos done here. Â Both came out exactly how I wanted them done. Â Almost all of my friends go here and have been here for multiple tattoos as well. Â You really can't go wrong with any of the artists. Â The last time I was in for a tattoo a friend came with me to get her ear cartilage pierced. Â The customer service and professionalism are great. Â They explain exactly what to do in order to care for your tattoo/piercing. Â Everything is clean and with the amount of people I know who go to Trueblue, no one has ever had an complaints or issues. Â I recommended them to a friend who ended up coming in from out of state in order to visit them to have a tattoo done. Â If I decide on any more tattoos in the future, I would only come here to have it/them done.
Review Source:I've always heard nothing but great things about how great this place used to be...
the two times I went, the girls working the front couldn't be less interested in providing any help and basically waited for me to tell them exactly what I wanted.
Whatever...
The reason that I'm taking the time to write this review is b/c my friend and I were talking and realized that they did the same thing to us. They took $20 to hold a reservation and then waited until the night before to call us to say that there was "a screw up with the reservation and that they would have to reschedule me for later". Â
I felt annoyed about it, but 5hit happens. However, when my friend told me that they did the same thing to him, I knew something was up.
I think it would be very helpful if anyone else that this has happened to, could chime in on this. Being that this place is so difficult to get to, I didn't go back for my $20, but they must be hoping for this.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool all of us once - screw you guys.
