We provided recommendations for placement and ensured we loved everything about the tattoo. She was so kind, fun, and talented. Absolutely would recommend and my friends and I plan to come back to get additional tattoos by Shannon.“

Beelistic Tattoo & Piercing Tattoo

“Loved my experience with everyone at Beelistic.
When I 1st heard of Beelistic was from asking a friend where she got her tattoos and piercings from.
Me & my husbands experience was nice.
Staff knowledgeable & courteous.
We plan on returning for other tattoos and piercings.price & craftsmanship is what you pay for. The other review is kinda weird, a good artist is supposed to let you know if what you're asking them to do won't be top quality & seems like they want to find something bad to say, because you get what you pay for. $250 for the jewelry & & tattoos for 2 people is reasonable.
Had a great experience and LOVED the Decor!??“

Blue Magic Tattoo Lounge Tattoo

“Walked into Blue Magic Tattoo Lounge with an idea — walked out with a piece of art burned into my skin that I’ll flex forever. These artists don’t just ink, they create. No gimmicks, no ego trips, just raw talent and real passion.

The place is clean, the vibe is chill but intense — like everyone here actually gives a damn about the work. Witty locked in from the first line. Every detail, every stroke — sharp, bold, and exactly what I wanted. Zero hesitation. Zero regrets.

If you're looking for cheap, rushed work, keep it moving. But if you want something that hits hard and lasts, this is the spot. Respect to the crew — I’ll be back when the itch hits again.“

Old Hearts Tattoo and Arts Tattoo

“My spouse and I were both tattooed by Keith last night for a non-traditional Valentine’s Day celebration. Keith was fantastic. He talked clearly with us about our designs to make sure we were all on the same page, he was friendly and talked and laughed with us the whole appointment. Other artists stopped in to say hi who were also very friendly. Keith did a great job of making sure we felt comfortable and safe the entire appointment. The tattoos themselves turned out so much better than anticipated even! Was so extremely happy with the result. Keith is definitely a five star artist! Will definitely return soon! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“
