“08/29/23:Back for my third time. This time Jessica took a Celtic cross idea I had and turned it into a beautiful piece on my arm. To honor my family and mothers heritages. I'm very happy with it.

06/27/23: Came back for my second tattoo. (Nautical Ancor) Jessica again took my idea and translated into a beautiful piece on my forearm to honor my father's history, and thus my own. I'm very happy with how it turned out.

06/10/23: Got my first tattoo (semicolon) at the shop as a walk in. The artists name was Jessica Fox. She was friendly, easy to talk to and drew up the perfect design. It was an over all excellent experience. ~Would definitely return.“

“This was my second ever tattoo but first one with Din. Based on my previous experience, I was nervous at first, but Din's personable charm and gorgeous, welcoming space made me feel very comfortable and at ease.

As for the work itself, he not only took my vision and created a beautiful work of art, but also ensured that I had a say in each step of the process. This says a lot about his customer service skills and his artistry.

Thank you Din! :)“

Stay Weird Tattoo Tattoo

“Requested style: My friend was on the edge of what to get and was helped a lot with Joel’s suggestions and points of view from doing this for so long.

Specialities: He had to free hand part of my tattoo and it looks amazing. Made it that much more original and it looks perfect.

Cleanliness: Very clean place. Of course they always wear gloves, change their gloves and pulls everything right out of new packages.

Stylist: My artist was Joel and he did a fantastic job. My apt was not booked right but he did everything to make it right. I’ll go there for my next one for sure“

Mystic Tattoo Tattoo

“Mystic tattoo is a place where you walk in and your instantly welcomed. I have gotten 2 tattoos and multiple piercings that I'm in love with! Zia (the piercer) is so sweet and caring. The whole place is so clean. Zia always made sure that I was comfortable and made sure that I liked the placement of the jewelry before actually piercing it. I love how all her jewelry are titanium since i do have sensitivity to a lot of jewelry and titanium does not irritate my skin at all and actually makes the healing process so much better! 10/10, would recommend anyone to go here for both piercings and tattoos! Thank you!“
