Customer Reviews

I had a wonderful tattoo experience! Karlos was welcoming and professional. He took the time to listen to my vision and executed it perfectly. The clean lines and small details really stood out, and he checked in on me throughout the process. The location is great, and the studio was clean and comfortable.

Maria R.

Karlos did a phenomenal job on my Marceline tattoo! He exceeded my expectations — he really knows his craft, and his prices are very fair. I will absolutely be booking with him again in the future. He’s also super friendly and made great conversation while I was in the chair. Truly terrific work!

Melondy M.

Karlos took me in as a walk-in. He was very professional and upfront about the cost of the design. He is clearly passionate about his work and took the time to understand my needs.

Nathaniel R.

I came in specifically looking for someone with strong line work, and Karlos absolutely delivered. Every line in my tattoo is clean, crisp, and precise — exactly what I was hoping for. He made the entire experience comfortable and enjoyable. I'm beyond happy with the result and will definitely be coming back for more ink. Thanks again, Karlos!
