First time going and I loved everyone’s vibe, Kayla did an amazing job on my Medusa and eyebrow piercing and I’ll definitely go back to her, and the tattoo artists were very helpful and kind, I’d definitely think about getting a tattoo as well there in the future! Highly recommend this place“

“I came to Morgan last year with a vague idea for a scar cover up tattoo, and she has been brilliant. She developed a design with all of the elements that I wanted, that completely camouflages the scarring. She has also been really caring and professional -- this tattoo is sensitive (both physically and emotionally) for me, and I can't overstate how much I appreciate everything that Morgan (and everyone else in the shop!) did to make me feel comfortable and secure. I've gotten a ton of compliments on the tattoos -- the colours look even better in person :) If you are in Alberta and looking for a scar coverup or a vibrant colour tattoo, book in with Morgan!!“

“I found Tamara newton on insta when looking for an tattoo artist. She was more than helpful and agreed to do consultation over text because I lived out of town. she took my idea and turned it in to a beautiful tattoo. She got me in fairly quick, the shop had great vibes,very friendly staff and Tamara was amazing she made sure to explain everything made sure I was comfortable and very accommodating. I would definitely recommend checking out Tamara newton for your next tattoo.“

“So far so good. Scottie was quick and answered all my questions. Appointment is on Saturday. I'll update after my session.

Edit: Fun and professional. I arrived 10 minutes beforehand and was brought into Scottie's room. Scottie is a very pleasant and funny dude. My appointment was scheduled for two hours and it flew by as we visited. The tattoo looks amazing and I'm very satisfied with the outcome.“

“I had a tattoo done by Ian last month, and I am absolutely thrilled with it. The shop was fantastic to deal with, I admittedly had many questions even before booking, and they were always very friendly and patient, and thorough in their answers! Ian drew my tattoo for me exactly as I had in my mind, I could not be happier with it. Everything was very clean and efficient during my appointment. And of course, the tattoo has healed beautifully. It is by far my favorite tattoo, and I will definitely be back for more!“

“Definitely my favourite place now! I was delighted to have been tattoed by Ally to do my first ever butterfly back piece and it 100% a pleasing experience! She was very careful and communicative with my indecisive choices and gave me an opportunity to see other potential placement ideas for the tattoo. Ally is also made sure I was comfortable which I was super happy it made my whole experience amazing. Love the place as well, it gives a real maximalist vibe!“

“Jessie pierced the ears of all three of my girls- a gift when they turned 10. The shop and piercing stations were meticulously cleaned. She explained the procedure, and made sure the girls knew what was going to happen each step of the way. She has an excellent way with kids - reducing anxiety and making the experience positive. Each girl left the shop knowing how to clean and take care of her piercings. Jessie's advice for jewelery selection was perfect. The earrings did not bother the girls at all. I would definately recommend Jessie to anyone who was looking to have their children's ears pierced.

Cleanliness: Absolutely spotless.“

“My personal experience at Odd Tattoo is one to recommend to everyone! My lovely tattoo artist, Chris, has done my two tattoos now. They healed perfectly and look wonderful. Personally, in tattoos I am picky and always looking for something small and dainty with fine lines. He nails it everything!! His attention to detail and mindfulness that I like them fine line is like no other! Anyone who is looking for a fine line tattoo, Chris is your man!!“

“Had a great experience with Kay at Headways. Lots of info and care, and the end result really impressed me. I would suggest anyone thinking about micro pigmentation to go to her. She’s massively experienced and a great gal.“

“A good shop starts with good people. The people here, at Crimson Empire, are the best people. You'll never NOT get an honest answer.

The artists are excellent - I've been tattooed by Curt and Sheila. Both are exceptionally professional and excellent to work with. I'm extremely excited whenever I go there for new work or continuation on the work I already got.

Everything is done up-front and professionally. You won't always hear what you want - which is exactly what you need to hear sometimes. If they can't or won't do something, it's in the best interest of everyone involved.

Also: sweet Merch.

Requested style: I have two half-sleeves. One of a Ukiyou-E, woodblock print style and another with an awesome Red Panda and Assorted bugs.“

“My God, where do I start.Dylan is my artist.Made me feel relaxedIt was a great experience“

“I've been going to Jodie for some time. My last tattoo I've had an idea to get done for over a year now. I brought the idea to her and not only did she deliver, but blew my expectations out of the water. Couldn't be happier. The building is clean, the staff is cool, there isn't much better than this. Thanks Jodie for the absolute stellar work that I now have forever!“

“Loved this shop! Tons of cool art covering the walls. Conrad was super quick, helpful, friendly, and professional. Highly recommended this lovely family business.“

“A few years ago I went to Aces and Spades at Argyll and had such a great experience there...that I had pretty high expectations for Aces and Spades North.
Man o man I gotta say Jaq is running an amazing ship!
We did the Gumball machine for my sister's 40th and had soo much fun.
The artists were so amazing and professional and relaxing.
Shout out to Ramy, his work is stuuuuuuuunning
I will be a repeat customer again and again.
10/10 best experience ever.

Specialities: Gumball machine!!
We got to use a token for the machine and I liked my first pick but wasn't in love.
My second pic was so cool.
I love that you can go through a flash book of the themes that they have in the machine.
And that the personalize to your specifications. LOVE IT“

“From beginning to end, I had a great experience with Kaitlyn at Chaos Tattoo. She is responsive with messages, conversations flow naturally, and it was easy to feel confident with whom I'd chosen to tattoo me. Kaitlyn is professional and authentic and she completed a beautiful and quality tattoo on my shin, ankle, and calf. Thank you, Kaitlyn, for not only meeting but exceeding my hopes for this piece.“

“I have done mystery tattoos and have gotten custom work done here. I can't say enough good things about this place friendly, curious, And accommodating.“

“Recently had a tattoo done by Joel.
Went into the shop as a walk in to get matching sister tattoos. Front desk staff were very nice and Joel took our idea of a birth flower combination tattoo and made a beautiful design. The process and full experience was amazing and Joel was a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend and we'll absolutely come back.“

“We had a great experience this past weekend, taking our 14 year old for a septum piercing. The booking process over the phone was simple and efficient. The person I spoke with was very friendly and helpful. The shop is really clean and very welcoming. Everyone we encountered seemed to genuinely be happy to be working there. We filled out some paperwork and then waited for our turn! I didn't go into the room with her, but my partner did and he said that Michelle was really great. She took the time to make sure the teen was comfortable and understood what was going to happen - she also went over aftercare thoroughly and made sure we were set up for success. The jewelry was all good quality, and the prices were quite reasonable. The septum piercing, jewelry and aftercare solution came in under $150.00. I will absolutely head to Red Loon for future piercings!“

“I went to Noni twice for a nose piercing and a conch. Both times were great results and she has gentle hands so my piercing didn’t even hurt. Start to finish I am very happy with my appointments. Highly recommend seeing her for your next piercing!“

“Justin! Thank you so much for your patience and attention to detail. I had a great time working with you. Best.“

“I had an incredible experience at Bears Skin Art for my dragon and koi sleeve tattoo. Bear is not only incredibly talented but also incredibly friendly, professional and a pleasure to work with. From the initial consultation to the final session, He took the time to understand my vision and executed it flawlessly. The studio itself is clean, comfortable, and has a great vibe that put me at ease throughout the process. I couldn't be happier with the result—my tattoo is stunning and exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Bears Skin Art to anyone looking for top-notch tattoo work in a welcoming environment. Pictures to follow....“

“Autumn is great. Made the tattoo as painless as possible thank you autumn love my tattoo“

“To be clear, my Tattoo isn't even finished at the time of writing; but from my two sessions so far I have been delighted. Both my own artist (Addox Grey) and everyone else at Capital are very warm, welcoming and professional. The location is clean and well cared for with excellent interior decoration.

I would definitely recommend their services for tattoo virgins, like myself.

That and Addox shared a cookie with me, unprompted. 10/10.“

“Amanda is super talented and is super amazing at what she does! super bonus that she has a great personality and is super sweet. I felt super comfortable under her care. highly recommend her. she switched my coloring from a lady before, and it looks so natural and I get so many compliments. very clean and professional. I've been back several times and will keep coming. extremely affordable as well. we need that nowadays.“
