“It’s taken me awhile to find someone who’d I trust to do my next tattoo that I wanted to represent my kids and Xavier hands down did an excellent job. I am so happy with this piece. He was recommended to me by family who have gotten many tattoos done by him and he does not disappoint. Already looking at what I can get next with Xavier!“
“Requested style: He took my original idea and made it even better!
Specialties: Ricky was awesome! I threw a curveball at him the day before my appointment and he ran with it!! Even better than I could have come up with.
Cleanliness: The shop was clean and the artists really took pride in keeping it that way!“
“Highly recommend you get your coverup or any tattoo done by Smoke. He helped me to love my arm again!! I had some amateur tattoos I had been wanting to get covered up for too long and Smoke hooked me up! Not only is his work beautiful but he is quick and very detailed! I am definitely making him my forever tattoo artist and I am so happy I found him!“

“I got a memorial tattoo for my sister done by Victor. When I presented him with my idea I was hesitant because of the idea (which is not a normal memorial tattoo as you can tell). What he designed was more than I could have imagined and he even made changes to ensure it would still look good months and years from now including placement. If you want a good studio, here is your sign.“

“Sam gave my son his first tattoo and did a fantastic job and Tom added more to my tattoo and he did a great job and I am very satisfied with how it turned out. Thank you“
“I’ve gotten several tattoos from different places across the country but cobra kiss has by far raised the bar for exceptional service and skilled artists. When I was there; Ian (ian_loughlin_tattooer) had set aside like a large amount of time for consultation alone with a client, and the piece (which i believe wasn’t finished) looked incredible.
the artist that did my tattoo was Lindsay, (@lindsaydorman) who thoughtfully helped me through the process of getting a bigger piece & coverup done, she not only has a keen eye for detail & a respect for art as a whole but also kept checking in to make sure i felt comfortable and was having a positive experience which can make all the difference several hours in.
on that note, the environment here is incredibly supportive and welcoming. many places claim this but sometimes fall short in one or two areas, which i couldn’t find here. there really is an air of belonging and non judgement, completely separate from the experience of the actual tattoo just being in spaces like this can feel very rejuvenating.“
“I have been going to Neil for almost 15 years and he never disappoints. He is an amazing artist and a great guy! If you want top notch work and an enjoyable experience you need to go here!“
“Got an Ashley lip piercing by Christina. She listened to my concern about the jewelry being centered and was dead on in the placement. Her technique was awesome and virtually painless. Will definitely be going to her for any other piercings in the future and recommend her for anyone wanting a great result.“
