“I had an incredible experience at Last Nerve Tattoo. The whole shop has such a calm, professional, and genuinely welcoming vibe from the moment you walk in. My artist, Lyndsay, is the definition of patience and talent. She's technically amazing (my tattoo healed perfectly) but what really stood out was how kind and down-to-earth she is. When I mentioned I was trying to love my arms more, she immediately said, "As you should!" With a smile. That one line completely changed how I felt in that moment. She let me adjust the stencil as many times as I needed, told me she was there to match my vibe whether I wanted to chat or just zone out, and made the whole experience feel collaborative and fun. Talented talented talented! I am blown away by my beautiful piece. Micah, the shop owner, was just as wonderful! You can tell they really care about the environment and the people who work and get tattooed there. Everything about this place feels intentional and filled with good energy. I left not just with a tattoo I adore, but with a real sense of confidence and appreciation for myself.“
