After many years, I finally decided to get another tattoo. Â I looked at Yelp reviews to pick the shop and after reading many good reviews, decided on this one. Â We dropped by the shop as a walk-ins. Â We were greeted right when we walked in and luckily Tami had time to squeeze me in. Â Tami took her time making sure it was the right font, size and most importantly the right spelling. Â My tattoo was done in no time at all. Â I love it! Â Very clean, organized and professional shop. Â Will definitely go back to Tami for my next one. Â My son's girl friend, who accompanied me, will be making an appointment with Tami soon for her 2 new tattoos. Â Great experience! Â Would most definitely recommend Wisemagic Tattoo.
Review Source:I had been thinking about getting a small tattoo on my arm, and checked Yelp before deciding on a place. I picked Wisemagic based on the good reviews. I called ahead and made a same-day appointment with Tanner. Â He was great - he was ready for me when I arrived, very personable, and put me at ease despite my nervousness. The tattoo was reasonably priced and quick - I was in and out in about 30 minutes. And yes, the toilet was spotless, which was a pleasant surprise!
I wish I could give 5 stars but I reserve those for flawless experiences, and there was one small hiccup.....when I arrived, Tanner asked another tattoo artist to show me the font books so I could select one for my tattoo. This other guy's tone was gruff, abrupt and condescending. All I can say is, I'm glad Tanner was my artist and not this guy!
This tattoo shop does something which is extremely rare, that is it lives up to the hype.  After searching dozens of shops work online, I found Mark's.  When I visited him to discuss the full sleeve I wanted to do he was very receptive to my ideas and drew me a custom piece.  He very patiently went though several rounds of revisions with me  and now that I've finished my second sitting I couldn't be happier.  Also, the environment is everything you could ask for from a tattoo shop.  Well decorated and clean as an operating room, you can tell Mark and his Co-workers take pride in their work.  I'm traveling 50 miles each way to get work done here and would recomend you do the same!
Review Source:On vacation, I wanted to get a quick tattoo as a commemoration of my trip.  I'm pretty covered, so if I'm not in the process of a big tattoo, the only things I can get  done are small, fill-in pieces. Â
I wrote to them on Facebook prior to the shop opening that day and received a quick response. Â They had time right as the shop opened and Tanner worked on my arm. Â He was cool, did a good job on my piece, and didn't seem to have any problem at all with my early drop-in (some artists do exude attitude over these types of things, but Tanner was great). Â
I'll be back, as my family has a house in Scottsdale and I plan on coming back often. Â Thanks guys!
I guess I can't actually say that Wisemagic Tattoo is "as good as it gets" since I technically have never spent time in a tattoo parlor before. BUT, that being said, I can't really imagine a tattoo parlor being much better.
My husband has been day-dreaming about getting his first tattoo for a while, so when a friend of his recommended this place I immediately jumped on Yelp to check out the reviews. Once I saw that Yelpers were clearly giving us the thumbs-up on this place (holy five star reviews!), we decided to stop in and check them out. The place was pretty busy when we walked in (all the tattoo artists were busy buzzing away on the people in their chairs), but Mark greeted us after a moment and said he'd be with us in just a few minutes. He directed us toward the books to check out their work. My husband wasn't exactly sure of what he wanted tattooed, but knew the general idea and where he wanted it placed. Once Mark finished up, my husband gave him some of his random ideas (none of which were very great). Mark was a little hard to read, but immediately started sketching a few things out. My husband chatted with him for a little while and Mark agreed to put together a few more ideas and give us a call in the middle of the week.
My husband received his call right on schedule and stopped in to see what Mark had come up with. He had some great ideas and really seemed to understand what my man wanted (even without much of a detailed explanation). I was extra impressed that he was willing to make a copy of his sketches for my husband to bring home to show me. It also gave him some extra time to be 100% sure of what he wanted. After making his decision, he gave Mark a call and set up an appointment for the next day. Easy!
Upon strolling in to Wisemagic for the second time (of course I had to tag along so I could accurately write my review) I noticed just how clean this place is. It's actually quite impressive. Even their bathroom is clean, which is really saying something for a boy's-club type of workplace. The decor is pretty typical of what you would expect in a tattoo parlor, but I felt surprisingly comfortable there. Mark spent a few minutes updating my husband's drawing (he wanted a couple of simple changes) and invited us back to get started. I really appreciated that he didn't make me stand up front awkwardly, but told me to pull up a stool and hang out.
I was really impressed with the entire experience with Mark that afternoon. He was genuinely concerned with correct placement and wanted to make sure that my husband was really happy before beginning the actual tattoo. Mark never made us feel uncomfortable...especially considering this was my husband's first tattoo. He really warmed up to us as we hung out and was quite pleasant to chat with. The tattoo turned out really well and my husband is super excited. Mark made sure we had all the necessary care-taking instructions before leaving and we were happy with the price he charged. We weren't there all day, yet felt like Mark really took his time to make sure my husband was pleased with everything.
What a great experience for a first tattoo! We will definitely send our friends to Wisemagic...and you never know...maybe I'll get my own tattoo here someday.
Clean, knowledgeable and kind. The first time for my daughters and a friend. Robert pierced both my daughters and was amazing... so professional, informative and funny... was the perfect experience for me as a Mom and my daughters... and he promised to address any issue - amazing.
Aaron tatooed my daughters' friend... was awesome, patient and helpful... it was our first time.
Amazing experience... would highly recommend.
I LOVE this shop! I was referred by a good family friend after my artist moved up to Seattle. I checked out a few other shops in Scottsdale and Tempe, where the artists were stuck-up and waaay overpriced (I got quoted $900 for a 4 by 2 inch black tatoo, for reals?!). Anyway, I found my way up to Wisemagic and fell in love with Tanner. His work is phenomenal, and better yet, he understood what I wanted. I've been going there for a few years now and have referred all of my friends. Everyone loves the shop, the artists and their tattoos! If you're looking for some talented artists, reasonable prices and you're sick of the stupid tattoo culture of Scottsdale and Tempe, get your butt up to Wisemagic!
Review Source:I Love this place, and this is the only place I get my tattoos (well except one tat I got in amsterdam, which had to be touched up/enhanced at wise magic) :) I've only been to mark and I think he does a great job, very professional and everytime I go in I always have an idea in my head on how the tattoo will look but when I leave it looks 10 times better than I could ever imagine!
Very friendly and CLEAN! I always recommend this place.
Tami is awesome! I went into the shop today to get a price on a couple tattoo's, after I left she called me 10 minutes after and said she could do my tattoo's. I ant back of course. She was very nice and safety was her #1 priority! She opened everything up in front of and changed out her gloves a dozen times. The place was clean. I enjoyed talking to Jessica& Tami. I love my tattoo! If you want to go somewhere clean, with nice people and awesome work, then this is the right place! YOU ROCK, TAMI! I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN SOON FOR MORE TATS AND I WILL BE REFERING PEOPLE TO YOU!
Review Source:Tami is awesome!!!! I went in today for my second tattoo by her and she did a terrific job. Â This shop is clean and the other artists working there are always courteous and nice. I am going back in 2 weeks to get a touch-up and some more added to the first tattoo Tami did for me. Â I highly recommend this place as I know a couple others who have went to Tami and came out very happy.
Review Source:Looking for a super clean, friendly shop and a phenomenal tattoo? You have found your place! I worked closely with Tami on a very complicated design. She nailed it on the head and it is so beautiful! I'm all set up for another tattoo with Tami in a few weeks and once again, the design she drew is amazing. Â I don't know the other artists in the shop, but everyone was so friendly and nice. The shop is beautiful and very well kept. Your safety is their #1 priority and the few times I've been in the shop it has always been spotless. If this is your very first tattoo or your 100th, this is the perfect shop to visit!
Review Source:When 5 of us decided we wanted tattoos, at the same time no less, we went to wisemagic based on reviews from friends. Â Although the tattoo artist we were recommended to no longer worked there, Mark worked with us to ensure we had a highly enjoyable experience. Â Mark did three of the tattoos (mine included) and Tami did the other two. Â I have nothing bad to say about either of them! Â Both were personable and professional, working with us to tweak our original drawings numerous times. Â
Both artists were professional not only on the day of the tattoos, but from day one. Â Right when we entered the shop, we were greeted and put at ease to discuss our designs. Â The shop is VERY clean, both in appearance and in artist attention. Â It was reassuring to watch Mark and Tami scrupulously clean their workspace in between each of our tattoos and I lost count of how many times they changed their gloves. Â
Both artists answered questions throughout the process with tact and professionalism. Â I felt totally at ease and will definitely be going back for a few more pieces.
OK, I am definitely not the know it all when it comes to tattoos, but my friend told me about Wise Magic when I was decided to get my first tattoo.
I walked in their on a whim one day and I have to say that they did not make me feel stupid, though I definitely felt that way. I looked through the books to see if I liked anybodys art work. I was looking for somebody that was really good with color....and I noticed the Reverend Rad Chad's work. Ironically, it was the same guy that I was talking to when I came in.
I booked an appt that day for a couple weeks later. A few days before, I walked in (when I was supposed to be at a party...shameful I know) and decided right then and there I was going to get it done. I loved his design of my plethora of stars and how he did the coloring (all purple) and shading was amazing! It was a painless experience as well and I loved it that my tattoo didn't look all red and puffy when it was done.
I went to the party after and received compliments as well. ***Blush****
If and when I get tattoo #2 and #3...I am definitely going back there!
Haven't gotten a tat -yet! Went for a piercing.
These r the kinda places that, no, you wouldn't think to go for a regular "I'm going to get my ears pierced" kinda place. But yup, i did. I have 6 on my ears, 2 closed up, so i had them re-done.
I had the preconcieved notion i would be scoffed at with such a miniscle request apon walking in - not so! Â I was treated with respect, & full service, as if i had never had something like this done before. (I was likely their easiest client ever - lol).
I really appreciated not having eyes rolled at for such a tiny job. Â Talk about taking their job serious! Â Thanx! Â (maybe next time the tat.... u never know)
