There are not enough words to describe how grateful I am that I met Alexa and have gotten many…read moretattoos with her. Not only is this woman one of the most talented humans alive, but she is such an amazing and kind person and getting to be tattooed by her has become such a highlight of my life. When I first met her, I was in a really bad place with my health. I was living with some very serious health issues and was just overall struggling so much and truthfully, I felt like a foreigner in my own body. I first got a Wicked tattoo done by her and when I walked into Supersweet, I was so nervous. I had many other tattoos but I was just in a very vulnerable place and at that time, everything made me anxious. When she sat down with her designs, what she had come up with took my breath away. It was so much better than I could have ever imagined and it was the most stunning design I'd ever seen. As we sat down to get started, she could tell that I was nervous and was so gracious, gentle, compassionate and understanding, and really took her time to make sure I felt safe. This meant the world to me. After that, I was scheduled to have a tattoo with her again, and I needed to cancel bc I ended up having emergency back surgery. She was, again, so kind, loving, understanding and supportive. I have since come in and gotten quite a few more tattoos with her and for the first time in so long, my body feels like my own again and I am excited to look down and see my beautiful tattoos done by her. I fully intend to be her client from now until, honestly, however long she'll have me. Her work is stunning and I have so much fun at our sessions. She is someone I deeply appreciate and I truly couldn't be more grateful for Alexa! She's such a kind human, that my husband, who SWORE he would never get a tattoo started warming up to the idea because he finally felt safe and comfortable and that was solely because of her. He officially just got his first tattoo from her. I am so excited for more tattoo fun and I HIGHLY recommend booking with her!

I was definitely giving toddler energy by kicking my feet and asking questions and she totally entertained every second of it. We talked about movies, tv shows, travel, music, etc. The conversation totally helped distract from the pain and before i knew it the session was over. I thought parking would be tough, but i went on a Saturday afternoon and found parking relatively easily a block away on Lake Shore Ave. The quality of work is top notch and my tattoo came out exactly as i wanted it to. Strongly recommend!

I just happened to be visiting from Texas, so it seemed like a great way to celebrate the weekend! She mentioned that she had talked to Chris & that it was his idea. Not only did Chris come up with a clever & creative idea for us to mark the occasion, but he went all out. He drew up the exact chainsaw from the movie, matched the color & even added some blood on the blade. I love it! The shop is traditional cool, with great flash and amazing original framed artwork & taxidermy peppered about. It was clean, well lit, with a relaxed atmosphere. Chris was completely professional, precise and incredibly quick. He was fun to talk to & made me feel completely at ease. I would definitely go back to him again!

Their tattoos turned out great (different artists did theirs) and mine just is the worst tattoo I've ever seen. There's absolutely nothing I could like about it and I don't even know how it could get fixed. Idk if the guy was tired but he did seem pretty over it. He changed the colors from the design (without asking me) because he wanted to give me something more unique..it's definitely uniquely terrible.This really looks like it was done by someone who's never tattooed before. Every time I look at it, just makes me feel like sh*t. Please just choose not to tattoo someone if this is the quality of work you're going to produce.
