Getting my first tattoo was a huge deal for me, and I was honestly pretty nervous walking in -- but Illya made the entire experience incredible from start to finish. I'm working on a One Piece-inspired Japanese style dragon sleeve, and his knowledge of traditional Japanese tattooing really shows in every detail. When we were designing the piece, he even went out of his way to watch episodes of One Piece so he could really understand the vibe and bring the right energy into the design. That level of dedication meant a lot to me. Throughout the appointment, he explained every step of the process so I always felt comfortable and knew what was happening next. The shop in Springfield off Q Street is always clean, welcoming, and has great music playing, which makes the whole experience even better. The sleeve isn't finished yet, but it already looks amazing, and I'm beyond excited to keep working with Illya to complete it. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and genuinely cares about bringing your vision to life -- I can't recommend him enough. read more

I got a tattoo done this past Sunday by Sarah (their Instagram is @ashburninks) and I absolutely love it! They were suuuper kind and very adaptable to the changes I was wanting for my tattoo! Their space is very clean and they're very knowledgeable. If you need a break at all during the tattoo they are very able to give you one and the shop even has some Gatorade for you to have! The only small downside was their station is right next to the bathroom, could be a pro or con depending how you look at it.. someone used it during my tattoo and it wasn't the best smell, but that went away quickly! read more

They did my son's tattoo such beautiful work. It was a total skull cover. Ean (I think that's how spell it) did an amazing job it is so detailed. Wish I had a photo. read more

Splat is amazing and super communicative. Fantastic tattoo and a great experience! He has everything I was looking for. Great line work, clean atmosphere, and fun conversation! read more

I decided to go to Anchored Ink because I was drawn in by both the quality and variety of their work. I called and booked an appointment for me and my friend with Jen. I wanted two existing tattoos redone. Jen got pictures of my old tattoos and sketched out options for both, and they were all amazing. Jen did such a phenomenal job I actually squealed when I saw it. I know, I was surprised the noise came out of me too. But I am just so happy with it. It was a tattoo that I liked but I now love it. She did more than I was hoping for! Jen is extremely talented and kind. I'll definitely be going back to Jen for next tattoo! read more

I have gotten 3 different tattoos by Splat and plan for more. His line work and technical skill is great! Splat listens to what the vision for the tattoo is and really delivers. Energy in the shop is great, conversation is good and he sings while he works. Highly recommend! read more

I've known this place existed for years, but never really paid attention to it. It was kind of a random fluke I ended up here. Scrolling through Facebook one day, I saw Tony in my suggested friends and I basically went trolling through his profile. I had messaged a couple of people about the tattoo I wanted, but it didn't seem like they took it as seriously as I'd expect. So I kept looking and found Tony. We talked for a bit about my idea, which was a combination of specific and obscure. You know, half an idea and you need someone to complete it? I finally met with him and I really liked him. It was one of those ideas where half of it was cemented in, the other half would almost be played by ear as we went. Which was fine with me, actually. I went in and was nervous. This was a memorial tattoo to honor my best friend that I had lost a little over a year ago. I also decided to put it on my arm, my first visible tattoo. I needed perfection. So needless to say, I was a bit terrified. Lol. I went in with my husband to get the tattoo done and I was surprised to find it's a fairly quiet and really clean shop. It was relaxing for being a tattoo shop, if that makes any sense. Everyone in there is super nice and helpful. It is a great environment for a tattoo. Tony is the one who did my tattoo, and it is literally perfect. I can't nitpick a single thing about it, and I can pretty much always find something to complain about. Lol. He put me at ease, was super accommodating to my husband being there, greeted him as well. He really went out of his way to make us both comfortable. That's something I really appreciated. He chatted with both of us as he did the tattoo, and it was fun. He let me move around as needed, made suggestions on where to move to be more comfortable. As we were doing the tattoo, I saw another artist's daughter walking around, and Tony talked to her, giving her gum and it really struck me as being a family friendly environment. Other artists and people who work there came in and saw what he was doing, talked to me a bit, and it was just relaxing. It did not feel like the typical loud obnoxious tattoo shop. Would I return? Absolutely! It is probably the most perfect place to get a tattoo in Eugene. Clean, friendly, welcoming environment with great people who do excellent work. I'm looking forward to going back in October to have it finished. read more

After a spontaneous trip to Eugene and a long 2 hour drive my group of 4 agreed on tattoos. So the hunt began and when we called Anchored Ink, Moose picked up and it was the best expierced we had. He took us all in drew up our tats and was so laid back and professional in one. Moose was the best artist we could have all asked for. He matched and altered our tattoos and we are all beyond happy. From some of us getting first tattoos and others getting them in painful areas, he was polite and walked us through everything, from painful areas during our tattoo and letting us walk it off after if needed. 100% will definitely be making the 2 hour drive back for him for sure! The shop was so clean and everyone was so nice. The engery in the shop was so calm and inviting from the coffee and drinks they had for customers and letting our big group just huddle around. Thank you guys for an amazing experience. read more

Anchored Ink - Tattoo on ankle - Tattoo Near Me - Springfield, Oregon

My Mother made an appointment to get a Tattoo with a specific thought in mind. The tattoo artist, Melody, waited until the day before to show my mother a sketch of what she had planned to put on her body. My Mother was not happy with the picture and wanted to make changes to it. Melody then told my Mother that she would lose her $100 deposit and would have to pay another $100 for her to draw another picture. Melody also told my Mother that she didn't even have to show her a picture of the tattoo until the day of, but she showed her as a curtesy anyway. My Mother then asked, "what if I didn't like the picture when I went in for my appointment? Would I still lose my deposit and have to pay again?" Melody answered, "yes." Adding that she thought my Mother had a poor attitude. I don't think my anyone should have to pay an extra deposit just because they aren't happy with the picture they are shown. It's something that's on your body forever, why wouldn't you want to make sure you like it?? These people were terribly rude to my Mother, whom was actually excited to get this tattoo. read more

Couldnt be happier with the out come.. Splat was my artist.. very clean and organized environment.. I didn't really know what I wanted but he helped create the pieces. He just asked me questions, and together it came.. I get so many compliments!! Very happy and I most definitely will come back! read more

Marlis was my tattoo artist and her work was and is phenomenal. I didn't get very extravagant pieces but that's beside the point. She was very sweet, took her time, and didn't make me feel like a nuisance when I couldn't decide on tattoo placement or size. I highly recommend this place if you want reliable, high quality, consistent work. I'll add photos when the tattoos are more healed. read more

I visited Anchored Ink after a friend spoke highly of them and the quality. I had a tattoo I needed covered up on my wrist. I was some happy with the outcome I nearly cried. You can not see the old tattoo in any shape or form. The fact that the new tattoo was covering the name of my domestic violence abuser of 26 years made my heart full of so much appreciation. Great atmosphere and wRm and kind staff. I would love to make a return visit. Anyone looking for great tattoo work needs to visit Anchored Ink! read more

Where do I begin... So, my love and I were really wanting tattoos for our soon to be anniversary. We had a bug in our butts to get them yesterday, so we went to a few highly rated places, and we were getting slowly beaten as we kept getting turned away. We ended up calling Anchored Ink and the guy on the phone said to come by in about an hour (we forgot to say we were wanting two tattoos), but we decided to wait and see if he could do two. When we should up we found out the guy who we talked to on the phone was Ray, the coolest, caring, most radest dude! Not only did he do an incrediable job on both of us, he stayed past business hours doing it. He took the time to understand what we were looking for, and his passion for tattoos and making people happy showed through everything he did. This was an event neither I nor my love will forget. THANKS SO MUCH RAY, KEEP DOING YO THANG! read more

This is hands down my favorite tattoo shop in the Eugene and Springfield area. They have basically all of the most talented artists in the area. I have 3 large pieces done by Jonathan Wade and I get compliments on them daily. He is amazing at all styles and is a really cool dude to chat with. Joshua South is another artist that I've been tatted by and he never fails to impress me. He has some of the best ideas. I always feel so comfortable and welcome when I enter this shop. This shop is a must go to when you are looking for an artist to work with. Drop in and check out everyone's portfolios when you have time. There are absolutely AMAZING artists here!!! read more

I love this shop! Amazing artist, clean facility and I won't get tattoos from anywhere else now. I have had a total of 8 pieces done at their shops and I love them all. read more

Melody did an amazing job bring my idea to the next level. She was very receptive to whatever I wanted and made sure I loved every bit of my tattoo. The shop is clean and professional looking. Not a fan of the music but oh well. There was actually parking which was a pleasant surprise given the location. I was treated as soon as I arrived. Everyone was very kind about this being a memorial tattoo and welcomed the run of my brother into this process. She also traced his hand writing right off of an old birthday card he gave me. That just put it over the top!! Melody was very accommodating with me. She made sure I was comfortable, that I liked the placement, design, color etc. She really went above and beyond to make this perfect! Her lone work and attention to detail was amazing. She charges extremely reasonable prices as well. Also all of my questions were answered no problem. I couldn't recommend this place enough!!! I can't wait to work on my next piece with Melody! read more

I love it here, the layout is great you have your own private room in a sense with an awesome TV to watch it's a nice distraction if your getting a lengthy tattoo! I see Russell and his work is amazing. read more

I can't vouch for all of the artists at Anchored Ink--I am sure they are all equally wonderful, but I have only had experience with Russell. I was referred to him by a friend, and I am so glad! He turned a crappy tattoo I had gotten in Crescent City, CA into something really beautiful. I had a bird with an ugly color scheme, and Russell fixed the colors and added a lovely frame with water and a lighthouse, and he did most of it free hand. I get compliments on my tattoo constantly. Russell is extremely artistic and knows what he is doing, plus he is personable and easy to get along with. read more

Mak Gallegos did not do what I asked him to do and I'm literally embarrassed to show my arm. I gave him a picture of a wolf in sheep's clothes and instead of taking the time to shade in wool his lazy ass simply filled it in with dots. In addition, the wolf is missing half his ear and he didn't outline one of his legs like he did the rest of his body. Unless you want to have a regret for the rest of your life, I would stay away from him read more

Tony was fantastic!! Not only did he have the perfect stencil made up right when my sister and I walked in the door, he kept our minds and nerves at ease the whole time!! It was so much better than we had feared and anticipated by far and the results were exactly what we wanted! The best part?? Tony is so understanding and supportive he let us talk to him via FB months ahead of time to answer all of our questions and concerns and kept it up during the entire healing process!! Thank you Tony!!! read more
