I got a shoulder tattoo here from Zel, and I am so happy with the results! A while ago, I had paid for the shop to research tattoo designs based on myself and my family’s history and ethnic background in the Philippines. I came in, and Zel showed me the motifs that they had identified as appropriate for me. I pointed to the ones that I wanted incorporated into my tattoo, and we got started. I got about a quarter of my arm tattooed, and it looks great! Took about four hours. Highly recommended!
