Kind words from our clients
I would highly recommend this studio! The staff is so friendly and highly professional, and the studio is so clean. The artists are so talented and each has their own unique style. I had a session with Joy, and her work is absolutely stunning. She worked with me to create the design I wanted and I am so happy with it. I got some fine line work done but her style has such a wide and impressive range and something for everyone. She is such a skilled and friendly artist, and she made my first tattoo a very special experience. I would recommend the studio to anyone looking for a unique piece or just looking to get a tattoo in general.

As for my tattoo, I’m soooo in love with it! Yesid has to be the most friendliest, easy-going, gentle and precise tattoo artist that I’ve ever known! He listened to what I wanted. Put everything together just the way I requested and added some of his personal touch. And the end result was spectacular and exceeded all my expectations! Loved his attention to details. Can’t get over my tattoo. It’s soo gorgeous! Thank you Yesid! ♥️
