    I reached out to several tattoo shops in the Valley hoping to find someone that could assist me in restoring and cleaning up my Batman tattoo. Most artists really don't want anything to do with another artist's work and rightfully so. This is common practice and I wasn't offended at all, I just kept searching. I reached out to a handful of shops on Yelp and AZ Tattoo Asylum responded the same day advising they would be willing to assist me with this restoration and clean-up. I found the artist profiles on Instagram and decided I'd approach Isaac to see if he would be willing to assist. I went to the shop early on a Saturday and had him review my current work and then explained what I'd ultimately like to achieve. Isaac was totally on board and agreed to assist me! So the shop itself is located at 51st x Thunderbird on the border of Peoria / Glendale. It's a super convenient location especially for me since I live on this side of town. The parking lot area opens up to another larger strip mall so there's plenty of ample parking. Their shop opens at 10 a.m. on a Saturday which is nice. For some reason, tattoo shops have this connotation that the artists are in a cheesy 80's metal hair band and therefore, they open late and close early. Not the case at all for the AZ Tattoo Asylum. They're at their stations at 10 a.m. on a Saturday ready to turn your piece of art into a reality which is pretty awesome all by itself. The store entrance is clean, the workstations are clean and it's a place you can feel comfortable. After chatting it up with Isaac a couple of weeks ago, I scheduled my visit with him today. As I've already mentioned numerous times, the artist workstations are exceptionally clean, sanitary and you can rest assured you're in a professional environment. We got started right away and after a 4-hour sitting, I am so stoked with the way my old tattoo has been transformed! It is 1,000% better than it ever was! It's bright, the lines are so crisp and clean and the colors are so vivid now! Isaac killed it and I could not be happier with the way this is turning out! If you need any work done at all, please please please do yourself a favor and check out the awesome folks at AZ Tattoo Asylum! One quick friendly FYI from a fellow Yelp Elite member, their business is cash-only, however, they do have an ATM machine on site in their lobby for your convenience. That said, I would not hesitate at all to recommend Isaac at the AZ Tattoo Asylum to my family, friends, co-workers or fellow Yelp'ers! Go check 'em out!

    The start of my dragonfly tattoo ... Design by Skittles, inked by K-Ta!!

    Just stumbled across this place on my way home from another consult one day. Thought what the heck, the more opinions and options the better. Came in, looked at portfolios, and was AMAZED! Everyones work looked so good but two really spoke to me. So booked with both!! First one, today obviously, is with K-Ta, the owner. Her lines are clean, shading is amazing, and outstanding color. She has a very light hand as well. #thankful. Thigh stings a bit. In two weeks will be with Jorge! His watercolor work is phenomenal. Gave him a description of what I wanted and he is drawing it up. Rough sketch is fantastic. Can hardly wait!! Come check this place out. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff amd most importantly a CLEAN studio!!

    I got my fingers tattooed by Jorge and the entire process went smoothly! I was able to walk right in, show him what I wanted, and we discussed the process. He did warn me that tattoos on the fingers are harder to maintain and there would be a good chance I would need to come back for a touch up. He showed me pictures of what it could turn out to look like to make sure I fully understood. He was very informative and wasn't trying to just take my money. We set a date and we did my tattoo and a few weeks later I followed up with a touch up. Both times everything was sterile and new out of the packaging. Overall great customer service, cleanliness, and professionalism! I will definitely be back!

    Wow!! The artists at AZ Tattoo Asylum are beyond reproach! Firstly, the artist talent cannot be expressed in words. Secondly, they follow all guidelines from masks to sanitization and aftercare advice and follow through is also beyond reproach. My artist, Jorge, not only redrew my desired ink, he turned it into the absolute best artwork I've ever seen. While being inked by Jorge, he was kind, attention to detail was off the charts, and very accomodating. Jorge not only did my now most favorite tattoo, but he also provided detailed instructions for aftercare as well as applying proper aftercare procedures while following all guidelines. I never felt at risk at the shop or with Jorge. Gloves, mask, sanitization and above all - the best artistry in the valley. Definitely choose them as your preferred tattoo studio. Thank you Jorge!!

    Good shop, my artist I just recently found out is no longer there but my experience the first time was good. They had a clean facility. They were welcoming and the place didn't seem like one of the whole in the walls like it can appear from the outside with its blacked out windows. The pricing was fair and the quality of work was good.

    Dragon and Fox mask done by Jorge! So happy as always!

    Recently got two more tattoos from Jorge! Always a wonderful experience! And as always they healed quickly and beautifully !! I've been going to him for about 3 years now, I've experimented with other artists but Jorge had to end up even fixing one done by someone at a different shop! He listens to what I want and pays such amazing attention to detail, he provides such a gentle and comfortable environment and I'm always ecstatic with the outcome, I can always trust him to execute any concept I come in with perfectly

    I highly recommend this tattoo and piercing parlor the staff were excellent people to be around and very tending to my needs on what I wanted done as far as my tattoo and the artist, Yorgenis De Jesus Peña Pruna did an amazing job with my Ink & the entire session was an awesome Success to where I am definitely going to be back for More Tattoo Sessions. Very pleased & appreciative of you all. Thanks again.

    Not only is the shop nice and clean but Jorge is an amazing artist! He does good clean work and is an easy artist to sit and talk with while getting work done. I would highly recommend anyone to go to him or this shop this picture is one of the 2 tattoos he's done for me. I will definitely keep going to him for any future work to be done I've had no issues with any of the healing or after care for any of my work that's been done.

    100% hands down recommend K-ta! She is so down to earth and professional. I was a first timer and she answered every little silly question I had. She made me feel very comfortable (even though I was freaking out deep down inside) and positive about putting something permanent on my body. If you ask her for her professional advise, she doesn't beat around the bush and gives it to ya. She does great water color work. I went with something simple and can't wait to go back for more!

    Jorge is amazingly talented!

    Hands down. 5 stars. Jorge did a 3D butterfly on my shoulder yesterday and I am absolutely in love. I will never go to a different tattoo artist. He is absolutely unbelievable and very talented indeed. I sent him a picture of a real blue morpho butterfly and he was able to duplicate the colors and details even better than I ever imagined. I loved it so much, that I went to see him for 2 more tattoos, and will never go to another artist! Go see Jorge!! You won't be disappointed :)

    Called yesterday, and asked about some work and gave a price for my budget. Jorge answered my call, and looked at some ideas sketched it up. Was extremely professional, kind, and wonderful art he did! My wife, and I really enjoyed him. He is very talented. My wife and I felt like we created a good and forever no one with him aaa our artist now. The shop itself was great! Very clean, and just had good vibes around it. I couldn't thank Jorge enough for helping me with working on my sleeve I want to finish up. And can't wait to keep getting more work done by him! Excellent shop, excellent professionalism, glad I called! Thanks again Jorge and Az asylum tattoo! Had a amazing experience!!

He also has excellent knowledge on what is even possible based on your ear anatom. Old West has a little room with a professional medical table/seat for piercings. I wanted a certain orbital but he said not only is my ear not as pronounced there, it's a very complex healing process. Luckily I had already researched Old West & liked another orbital picture they posted to Yelp so that one was my second choice & Torin was all over it! He measured & placed it PERFECTLY. Plus I got a flat piercing & he placed that perfectly as well in comparison to my other piercings. His commitment to health & safety is unmatched & both piercing are healing so well with the saline solution I bought from Old West. I came back exactly a month to get the shorter post needed for my flat and it was just such a pleasure to show Torin how great they both look! Each time I was in there were multiple people getting tats and the piercings are like back-to-back so this is definitely a go-to place for both. Thank you Torin & Old West! Pic is exactly one month from the flat & side orbital piercing - orbital is 16g 10mm ring & flat is 14g bezel Swarovski crystal, both purchased from Old West.

It's making the ball sit into my skin gently rather than on top. I'm waiting it out to make sure there's no issues, or that the ball doesn't go deeper, otherwise I'll return back for assistance. Other than that, Kit Kat was great! The other nipple is pierced great and looks fantastic! She was super cool and calm, made me feel comfortable. I was in and out of there in probably 10 minutes. I actually really loved the quickness of it all. I was going to get the basic surgical steel bars, but then Kit Kat helped me understand why titanium would be better especially because i have scar tissue from having them done before. I didn't feel pressured like she was trying to upsell me and i was very happy she told me that. I appreciate when professionals insert their personal recommendations. $80 out the door cash not including the tip i left. Super affordable i love it! The lady at the counter I didn't get her name sadly but she was also awesome. Told me about their in house cleaning solution for $10 and that was a done deal They probably thought i had a stroke or something bc i went in right after half my face was numb from the dentist, but they were still so kind to me anyway! Lol. I'll be returning here definitely.

My grandson had his ears pierced about 3 months ago and decided that grandpa needed to match him. Little did he know grandpa had 3 holes in each ear up to over an inch, the about 5/8" and 3/4" for many years plus the other 5 or 6 he still had. A couple of the piercers had conversations with me to see what I wanted. Been 12+ years since any jewelry had been in my loobs. Kaydence either drew the short straw or decided my patent was an old guy, and said she'd deal with me. Turns out with all this new jewelry that has come out she was able to slide a 12 gauge in the bottom hole with no issues. Now mind you they will pull out without much effort as the large holes have not closed up. We talked and decided to give it a try anyway as it's my 72 bday on the 23rd and I wanted to match my grandson. I leave out of state and might swing by on my way home to explore a couple other possibilities. But if you are looking for your 1st piercing or your 10th, I can highly recommend Modern Mods in the Arrowhead Mall. I can say that watching all the piercers, they are professional, knowledgeable, they want you happy as does the rest of the staff. When I started getting pierced and tattooed I was all of 16. I've also done a lot of piercings back in the day and taken care of my daughter's friends who got infections because they failed to follow simple instructions. We are a family of pierced and fully tattooed individuals. So go see the people at Modern Mods and get pierced. You will be pleased that you did. Thank you all for your help, you are the best. Also their shop is very clean and each station is cleaned before the next person is brought in. I'd rate this shop as higher quality.

    This store took what was supposed to be a positive experience and absolutely ruined it…read more I brought my 4 year old in here to get her ears pierced!! It was explained to me before her ears were pierced that the piercing for a child under five was $60, and that upgraded earrings could be purchased for an additional fee. There was one rack of earrings that was included in the $60, a rack of titanium pairs made the lobe piercings $100, and a rack of 14k gold sets that would make the lobe piercings $200. Turns out, the upgrades don't include the piercing. So the titanium upgraded set would've made my total $160, and the gold set made my total $260. Not a huge deal, but would've been nice to have known that upfront. Never, ever was $260 stated by any staff member. I'm fairly confident that this issue happens often, and that they're not clearly explaining it because before she put the earrings in my daughter, she even explained to me that the upgraded price would be $100 per ear. During checkout, the girl was so argumentative about the upgrade price, even though I was completely willing to pay for it that she didn't even give me any of the aftercare instructions for my daughter's ears.. She even argued with me about it AFTER payment had been made cutting me off and trying to explain why she was right. I'm not positive at this point why she didn't offer to go get a manager or supervisor, because that would've been the correct thing to do. She was extremely frustrated and projecting on both myself and my husband after we had already paid about the pricing. We left mid argument because we were so uncomfortable AND left a tip despite her absolute horrible customer service. One of the oddest things about this place is the way that they respond to reviews. Go look at them. Anything negative is instantly blamed on the customer, they take O accountability. They instantly blame the customer and try and make it seem like absolutely nothing that they did was incorrect or confusing. It's also worth mentioning, this store prides themselves on offering a 10% military discount, buttttt when we got to the front counter, it was only THEN explained that that 10% only comes off the "service charge". So instead of $26 off my daughter's ears, it was $6.. I highly suggest you find a different location for all piercings. Not only was the customer service, greatly lacking, but our piercer was rude, and upon leaving we noticed a pretty nasty gnat infestation.. wonder if the health department has been out here lately?
