“empire tattoo is absolutely amazing, they have very knowledgeable and friendly staff who are all so very talented! I highly recommend them!“

“I’ve been to New Hope twice now for tattoos. Both have been amazing. They are very clean, knowledgeable, and kind. First time I had Noe who did an awesome job. He also did my boyfriend’s tattoo today! Second time I had Ram-he did a great job! He was very knowledgeable!! He steered me in the right direction with suggestions to make my tattoo last and look good long term. We chatted throughout the entire process and he is very kind and laid back. He is very patient and makes sure you are happy with placement, size, etc before beginning. I’ve been wanting this tattoo for a while and I’m so glad I finally got it done today with Ram! I will be going to him in the future for sure. Highly highly recommend Noe and Ram ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“10/10 recommend going to see Jules! She helped change out a piercing for me I got done at another shop & she was the sweetest & I have such cute jewelry now will definitely be going back to her for my future piercings!“

“Just got my doubles on my ear lobe and double cartilage piercings here and I'm so happy I chose this place. Everyone was super friendly and the place is really clean. I believe my piercers name was Anthony, I was kind of nervous so I forgot, but anyway he was super professional, knowledgeable, and explained every part of the process as well as detailed aftercare instructions and answered all of my questions. Will definitely come back for any other piercing needs!!“

“My husband and I came here a couple of weeks ago and saw Jackie (@tattoojax on Instagram). We had such a great experience! Smart Ink is on the second floor of a strip mall, and it could be hard to find if you are not looking for it. It is also a bit confusing since it's on the second floor, but the stairs are connected to the cemented wall underneath the second-floor dentist sign. The first thing I noticed when walking into the tattoo studio was how clean and bright it was. Everything is sanitary, and no matter which tattoo artist you see, everyone is nice and will greet you when they see you. There is also a nice artsy vibe to the studio; the walls are filled with handmade art, and every artist's tattoo area has its own personality and aesthetic shining through. I love that everyone can create their own creative area because it makes the studio feel much more inviting. Sometimes, tattoo studios feel very cookie-cutter and edgy, but this place is different in a good way. My husband and I both got tattoos from Jackie, and she did an amazing job. She met with us on the front couches to make sure her final sketches worked with us. I wanted to change a part of mine, and she made the changes on her iPad in front of me before printing it out. Then, she wanted to make sure the placement and size worked with me before we started. Yes, these are basic tattoo artist jobs, but you'd be surprised how many tattoo artists skip steps. I got my tattoos before my husband did, but she took her time on both of us. She was extremely professional and made the experience enjoyable by being personable and talkative. The tattoos look AMAZING and are exactly what we wanted. We gave her some artistic freedom with colors and/or designs, and she did not make us regret it. We will 100% be back at this tattoo studio, and we will be sticking with Jackie for all of our tattoo needs and wants =)“

“Rosie is the best!!! My eyebrows look amazing THREE YEARS later and my upkeep has made them look even more amazing!!“

Great artist with very fair prices, amazing work and he always nails exactly what you are looking for. Great job Sean, Aiden and Space Cat Tattoo!“

“Mariya is an awesome artist, she was able to sneak me in while on a trip and I couldn’t be happier with her work! Thank you so much“

“Jariet has been my tattoo guy for years. He recently opened up this shop after Mother’s Day. He’s never done me wrong. He is absolutely awesome. He just touched up my tattoo a couple days ago and it looks absolutely awesome. I 100% recommend you go to him for anything you need. His touch ups are free if you do that tattoo with him the first time. Thanks Jariet!

Cleanliness: Jariet always cleans up. He always puts new gloves on, he always has rubbing alcohol on hand or next to him. He used new needles. Everything he pulls out on every use is new and clean.“

“Ruthie is so patient, thorough, and is all about the small details ! You can see how passionate she is about her work and really does her best to make sure you walk out a happy customer! Mission accomplished Ruthie! Thank you!!“

“The ABSOLUTE best! Mike is so kind and patient. He'll take the time to ensure you're happy with the design and placement before beginning. His work is always top notch, no matter the style. I have several pieces done by Mike and I frequently have strangers approach me to ask who did them! I love showing off his work and can't wait to get more in the future. Can't recommend him enough!!“

“Just come here! If you’ve been debating back & forth where to get your piercing/nervous or jittery just come here. Debbie made me feel so comfortable for my nose piercing, talked me through the entire thing. You can tell she knows her stuff! I’ll definitely be recommending all my family/friends here 10/10 SO happy!!

Cleanliness: CLEANEST PLACE“

“May be a simple piece, but Ceejay did an incredible job! Looks amazing and clean even during the healing process! I felt so welcomed here and everyone I spoke with/conversed with are so kind. Dusty and Anna were even kind enough to get me a smoothie, although dusty wouldn’t accept my money for it. Very kind people, will definitely be back for my next tattoo. Will be tempting not to come in just to play some pool however ?“

“Unbreakable ink is filled with very talented, professional, and creative artists that are driven to providing the greatest experience to all clients.

Let’s talk about the owner and artist Kurt Jacobsen. He is a one of a kind artist who creates one off pieces using his own imagination and creativity. He strives for perfection and making art that will truly turn people’s heads. Kurt is very talented and well versed in client pain comfort/management and takes their needs over his own. He is well worth the wait and you will definitely be satisfied with the results.

I have been working with Kurt for about 7years now and all the masterpieces he has created for me have definitely turned heads.

I recently got to spend a wonderful three days in Arizona at the Gila tattoo convention with Kurt. Here he created this amazing chest and neck piece for me. I provided him an idea and he spent endless hours or possibly days creating what ended up being a beautiful piece of art. We received nothing but compliments and praise during the convention which ended up paying off. We collect three first place trophies for best chest, best XL black/gray, and best front/back.

This was definitely an experience of a lifetime and will be doing it again.

Kurt is not only a great artist but a fantastic human being. This shows in his work, philosophy of life, and his dedication to his family.

If you are looking for an artist who will create your dreams look no further. Kurt will give you that one off masterpiece that comes from his own mental creativity. No google images for him. All his work is real art that he builds on his own.

If you want a one off masterpiece than look no further than Kurt from Unbreakable Ink“

“Went here for a tattoo for my husband and had a wonderful experience with Jon. The artist was exceptionally skilled and very talented. Jon was kind, and willing to work with a piece that I had drawn for my husband. There were very fine line pieces that Jon captured perfectly, and he was also gracious in giving my husband a break when his arm got sore.This tattoo was very significant for us, so it was important for us to get this done right.Scheduling was a breeze, and the owner was courteous and willing to work with our schedule. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a clean, and professional tattoo experience in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.Side note, I was also very grateful they allowed me to watch The Golden Girls while I waited, lol.“

“Their name says it all.
I was an out of state walk in at 7pm. Willy took me in and got the right size set for my Bulls logo. He was very professional, very cool guy who had some amazing artwork on his body. Ih am extremely happy with the way my tattoo came out. If I could give High Class Studio a 10 out of 10 I would. I will be back in Chicago. Same time next year. Hopefully I can meet up with Willie again. Thank you Willy. Well Done High Class Studios Well Done.

Cleanliness: The shop is very clean. The thing that I like the most is that they show you that they are using brand new needles. They don’t actually open them until they’re ready to start.“

“I had a tattoo done in Hawaii about 9 years ago. And as I was looking at it . It needed some updating. I had gone by there shop a few times but never went in. There was a group of us that wanted to get some artwork done. So I went to check it out and 4 1/2 hours later I came home with an update tattoo. Everyone was surprised and liked the artwork. My wife and daughter made their appointment that day. Darrell did my work and would highly recommend him. The gentleman that did my wife and daughters did great job too . My daughter and I are going to have a day out and have some more artwork done.“

“We arrived early and they were very nice and apologize for time misunderstanding in Facebook page. They were patiently waiting for us to fill out paperwork and pick designs. Atmosphere was nice love all the art work in the shop. A little sad I could not get an answer of some tattoos on the spot but I
will definitely come back. Thanks you Kyle, Anabel and Nicole.

Specialities: They have a Flash Sale and you get obsessed with ?.

Cleanliness: Very clean and they clean up after each person.

Stylist: Very professional but in style love the atmosphere and at least today the employees that were there treated me and my friends awesome. They answered all my questions.“

“Did a wonderful job with my 13 year old's set of doubles! Her piercer talked directly with her the whole time, and well prepared her for the experience. She also explained how to care for the piercings and the rationale behind it, so my daughter could understand. We'll be coming back for any future work! Thank you!!!“

“Alex pierced my daughter's ears. Very professional and patient. We will definitely return if she ever wants additional piercings!“
