  I’m still sitting in this shop and couldn’t wait to write a review! Holy cow Shawn is INCREDIBLE! My new wife and I walked into this shop (we are currently on our honeymoon) today for me to get a tattoo and from start to finish, our experience was impeccable. Shawn was kind, polite, professional and hilarious. Not only did we BOTH come away with amazing tattoos, but we had a really good time! I’d rate more than five stars if possible.

  I had a really amazing experience from start to finish today. After reaching out via the website and getting a very quick response, I walked into the shop about two weeks ago with a drawing in hand, and Flex offered me immediate and honest advice about the piece that I wanted, which I gladly took (he's the professional artist here, after all). Scheduling an appointment was quick and easy, and in the time between Flex communicated regularly about the design. He polished up my initial drawing and made it so much better than I thought possible, to say nothing of the actual tattoo, which blew my mind. Incredibly reasonably priced as well, considering the amazing quality! I couldn't be happier, and I will definitely be back - hopefully soon!

  If I could give more stars, I would! My sister and I booked in with Shawn for our visit to New Orleans for similar tattoos after a lot of online research. Shawn was wonderfully approachable and completely grasped what we had in mind and far exceeded our expectations!! Very professional with the right twist of sarcasm and humor when you're spending hours with the artist, and a super gentle technique (it still, of course, is rather uncomfortable on the ribs and sensitive areas). The outlining was completed in no time and perfectly clean, and the shading executed with excellent precision to create more depth in our pieces that I thought possible! Thank you so much! If I had more time in town I would be definitely getting another piece done!

  I got some Amazing work done by Flex who was very clean and professional. I talked to him and his partner via email for months to set up the designs and placements. Once we got to the shop we were not disappointed. Their job was impeccable. My husband and I are very satisfied with the end results.

  This is by far the best tattoo experience that I have ever had. My friend and I made an appointment to get tattoos, and while we were there my husband (who was with us) decided to get one too. Flex was awesome, and helped him out as soon as he finished mine and my friends. The conversation was great the entire three hours that we were there. Good music, and all around just a super comfortable environment. Will definitely be stopping back in the next time we are in NOLA!
