Best Tattoo Shops In Concord

“After 13 years since my 1st tattoo, I trusted Lost Sheep with #2. I worked a lot with Rocky to get me scheduled and thinking through designs. He was incredibly patient, kind and accommodating. He set me and my wife up with John to do our work.

Communication with John was great. He was eager to get to work on my idea. I sent him a lot of images and texts to try and explain what I knew I wanted but couldn't quite wrap my brain around. John sketched it up the day of and took great care in doing so. I gave him freedom to creatively interpret my idea as an artist and he came up with something perfect. He was happy to make some edits to the sketch before starting and even added in some elements to represent my wife and kids.

The actual tattoo process (7 hour session) was excellent. The shop was clean, friendly and appealing. They even offered snacks and drinks since I was in for the long haul. John was friendly and easy to talk to. I never felt rushed or pressured. John delivered super clean, thin lines and superb shading with no errors. He took great care in cleaning up the finished product, wrapping it and talking me through care and next steps.

The end result was everything I ever hoped for: Philbo Baggins' Hobbit Hole for me, a Hobbit at heart, who really just wants to stay home with the people I love enjoying good food and drink, all the while up for a little adventure. John's interpretation was incredible and the details were perfect. He designed the tattoo where the door was cracked open and you could see elements inside of the home which he then shaded over to add great depth. He truly went above and beyond and I will be back. Genuinely amazing work. 10/10 would DEF recommend John and co. at Lost Sheep!

“I wanted to try permanent makeup for my sparse eyebrows for quite some time but, my niece who had a horrible experience with microblading, had me convinced that I would never try it! Well, one day while scrolling on IG, I stumbled upon Oasis Beauties and was truly impressed by the artistry/craft of Beth Ann so, I reached out & scheduled a consultation/appointment for a “combo brow” for a more natural look! Upon my arrival, Beth Ann was welcoming, inviting and an overall joy to meet! She explained in detail what would take place during the procedure, from the mapping of my brows, along with the permanent makeup machine (attachments) she would be using to achieve the look that I requested. At the end of the procedure she thoroughly exceeded my expectations! So, if you’re looking for an awesome permanent make up artist for all your needs, reach out Beth Ann at Oasis Beauties you will not be disappointed!“

“I came down from Virginia to visit my Sister, and asked her what she wanted to do today. She said "Let's get some tattoos ". I figured hey why not. The staff was simply amazing. Tee (who just turned 16) laid down some nice ink on my Sister. Her Father hooked me up with a Sweet Ace of Spades. They were very inviting and we had more than a few laughs. Would not hesitate to get some further work done here“

“After moving down from New York I was super selective of where I wanted to get tattooed and Old Crescent did not disappoint, from the cleanliness of the shop , to the friendly / welcoming atmosphere and most of all the beautiful artwork Justin has created is unmatched. After one I knew I’d be back….4 tattoos later not once was I disappointed, I look forward to planning more and coming back!
