    Irish Claddagh by Keith
    Steven M.

    Great bunch of folks. Super cool, accommodating and VERY talented! Got me and my wife in as walk-in's and did a great job.

    Kind - Quick - Super Kid Friendly ! Our son is stoked with his first ear piercing ! Great shop !! The owner was friendly and a super nice guy ! You can tell he cares about his service ! Thanks so much for taking things at a perfect pace for him to get brave !

    Got my second lobe piercing. My friend got helix and 3rd lobe piercings (other side too).

    Found this spot with a quick search and was pleasantly surprised! I'm greeted immediately by the owner (Keith, I think) and offered water. I loved how organized/clean everything was and prices were listed right up front for piercings, which is what I was in for. They are super reasonable prices! My piercer Taylor did amazing! I got a second lobe piercing while my friend got two lobes and a helix. Taylor was professional and asked me questions before piercing me, making it comfortable for me to adjust the spot she marked in case I didn't like it (I didn't need to adjust cause she got it on the first try). My friend and I were done and out within our lunch break. We will definitely be back for more piercings.

    Did a walk in. Everybody was so friendly and nice. It's very clean inside. My artist, Izzy, definitely took her time with my tattoo to ensure that everything was set and that I liked it before tattooing.

    The atmosphere is super welcoming and laid-back, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Matt is incredibly talented. His attention to detail and artistry is top-notch. My piece has exceeded my expectations. He takes the time to listen to your ideas and bring them to life in the most amazing way. From the moment I walked in, I was treated like a long-time friend. I definitely will be returning for more pieces.

    My friend and I got matching tattoos here yesterday. We LOVE the results. We got Painted Lady Butterflies done at the same time. I got mine (pictured left) from Brad, and my friend got hers (pictures right) from Keith. Both Keith and Brad were very nice, respectful, and knowledgable. The business is very clean. Will be back for another tattoo in the future.

    My sister and I had great piercing experiences with Izzy. She was professional and gave great suggestions. Izzy was very patient and understanding of our nervousness. We will be back for more! Thank you Izzy!

    My friends and I were visiting from California and found ink masters looking for a last minute tattoo and we fell in love with this place! Roy was so helpful on the phone, getting us set up for our appointment as well as in shop making sure we had water and little candies. we all got our tattoos done by Haley and they came out beyond perfect, everyone was impressed by her perfect fine lines and we even recommend our family that lives out here to visit her if they're looking as well we're definitely gonna be visiting again next time when we're in town((: thank you guys again for giving us the best just comfortable experience

    I had a great experience with ink mafia . Taylor did a great job with piercing and talked me through everything. I felt a light headed at one point but she stayed calm ,turned on a cool fan and reassured me that sometimes it happens . I would 10/10 recommend this shop and would go back if I ever wanted to get pierced again .

    Second time there. First for nose piercing and second for a very detailed tattoo. Keith did a great job on what I wanted and it was not easy at all. Will be going back for my other my other tattoos

    I've been kicking around getting another tattoo that meant a lot to me during my addiction recovery…read moreback in the day. A week ago I woke up and decided it was time and came back to Ink Bomb. I didn't have an appointment, but as luck would have it, they had an open slot and I took it. My artist was also the owner, Tabitha who did an amazing job! It was great reminiscing about the early alternative bands we saw live from back in the late 80's and early 90's! The shop is amazing and clean, everyone I've met there on staff get 5 stars. On a scale of 1 to 10, my next tattoo will be created at Ink Bomb!

    I chose Ink Bomb Tattoos for my first tattoo after researching several highly rated shops and being…read moreimpressed by their portfolio -- but my experience was the complete opposite of what I expected. I paid a $60 booking fee a week in advance, and was told it covered the artist's drawing time and the appointment slot. Yet when I arrived early for my 3:00 PM appointment, nothing was prepared. After about 20 minutes, the artist showed me a design that wasn't even close to what I had provided, so he had to start over while I waited even longer. After an hour of waiting -- including watching the artist step outside for a smoke break -- I left without getting tattooed. I then learned the booking fee was nonrefundable, despite the fact that the delay and lack of preparation were entirely on their end. If the fee is supposed to cover the design work, the design should be ready before the client arrives -- not started after check-in. What should have been an exciting first tattoo experience was instead frustrating and disappointing. I reached out to the owner, hoping for understanding. Instead, I received no apology, no responsibility -- just the implication that I was being unreasonable for expecting my time to be respected. Extremely disappointed. I won't be returning, and I hope others know what they're signing up for before booking here.

Ear piercings are among the oldest, with evidence found on mummified remains. While they are often seen as a form of self-expression, they have also served various purposes throughout history, including ritualistic, cultural, and even symbolic roles. I came here on May 17th to get a hidden helix piercing to match my lil sis on the OCA team, Wendi K. (Go add her! She's Seattle's sweetheart). That and I've been seeing them on Instagram and they look cool. Megan was my piercer and everything went well. I chose a fun dangly 14k gold piece for my piercing as I know from a previous cartilage piercing that I need a more hypoallergenic metal. And while my ear anatomy doesn't quite make the piercing fully hidden, I'm happy with it. I'm glad to have had the consultation with Megan prior so I knew what I was getting myself into. Do yourself a favor and get pierced by Megan (walk-ins are allowed for piercings). Buy some saline solution here, tip generously, and walk away being a more decorated and shiny version of yourself.
