Big Bear Tattoo - Tattoo - Tattoo Near Me - St. Peters, Missouri

I have been to many tattoo shops across the country and outside the US, I can honestly say this is the only shop I have ever been in where I have heard negative talk openly about their customers. the heavy set short dude towards the front was just ridiculous total attention seeker, he talked so loud everyone could hear him, he kept name dropping famous people he allegedly knows. The guy was walking around giving his opinion on everything from the music playing to other peoples art pieces ,totally unsolicited advice , kinda seemed like he was getting on some of the other artists nerves, then he starts talking about some lady who is coming in for a Crow movie tattoo with the quote it can't rain all the time and making fun of it ,Heres the thing "fun boy" yes a lot of people like that movie and that quote , he acted like a bully I bet he took her $$ for that tattoo And I will bet he didn't have the balls to insult it in front of her. If someone wants to be negative about clients, do it somewhere out of earshot, other people getting tattooed don't want to hear it. My artist was actually respectful, they did exactly what I wanted and it turned out great and the shop is very clean and well decorated. The owners and some of the other artists seem cool but not that dude , there are plenty of tattoo shops around that anyone wanting a tattoo won't have that kind of experience. 3 stars for my artist my tattoo and the shop overall. read more

Such a great experience here! I got a tattoo from Kali and she was INCREDIBLE. Both in her work and her bedside manor :D she's a great conversationalist and a fun person. She worked within my ideas and budget and was flexible and supportive with my input and ideas. 2 hrs of tattooing - 2.5 hrs total plus the consultation a few weeks ago. read more

Just got a tattoo from Kirt exactly done the way I wanted ask for kirk you will be very happy

I love Big Bear Tattoo I got both mine done by Ryan at the old location. It was priced fairly. And very welcoming!!!

Safe, clean, welcoming, and reasonable! I'm glad I chose a suburban place over my previous city-centric shop experiences. This shop isn't working hard to impress or intimidate. Instead, they're human and comfortable with their identity. read more

Incredibly friendly staff and make you feel comfortable. And not to mention the art work is absolutely amazing!! I sat with Kenny and he was absolutely phenomenal. Very very creative and nice guy! I will defiantly be going back. read more

Big Bear Tattoo - My tattoo with Kenny! - Tattoo Near Me - St. Peters, Missouri

Big Bear is the perfect place to go for a tattoo. I had my first one done today, and not only is it beautiful, but the desk staff is sweet, and the artists are so kind. They were patient and designed exactly what I wanted. All of it was done in maybe 15 minutes, and it's a clean and gorgeous tattoo. I'd refer anyone to Big Bear, and will probably be back. read more

My son had a tattoo done on his shin of an elephant and it is beautiful.. he's making an appointment to get another one..

Five of my friends and I went in for tattoos. Kerry and the rest of the staff were super accommodating, kind, and cleanly. Above all, the art was perfect and we all left beyond happy. Shop minimum is super affordable compared to other high tourist areas. If we ever find ourselves back in Big Bear for more art we'll be sure to head back! read more

I've gotten my first 2 tattoos done by Bob over the past year. I was nervous about the process and what to expect from a pain standpoint but was quickly put at ease by Bob and Terri. Both tattoos came out beautiful and more than I expected. This last visit felt like I was out with friends for the night - they were professional about my tattoo, but we had great fun conversations with staff and other customers as well. Will go back to BBT next time I'm ready for a new tat. read more

I waited a while in life to get tattoos. I wanted to wait until I knew for sure what I wanted. My tattoos represent transitions and things I have gone through or overcome in my life. I know that without a doubt if I had done it when I was younger, I would be removing a stupid A** boyfriend's name that I shouldn't have inked. When I chose Big Bear it was on gut instinct. It isn't my first tattoo but it IS my biggest, and I was a little nervous about that. Kenny Reynolds is a very approachable and talented artist. He was very interested in my input and his variation and interpretation of what I wanted was SPOT ON! I am so happy with my new tattoo. If I could give you a 6 (because it's 1 more than 5) I would. I am definitely coming back and Kenny Reynolds is my go to guy. Thanks so much for my new body art. read more

I went in today and this was my first tattoo. Bob did a fantastic job doing my tattoo and it was quick and painless. I had a great experience:) read more

I was referred by coworkers, my friends and even my parents to "go to Big Bear". I had an idea for what I wanted but as I am not good at drawing could not put onto paper what I wanted. The point is That Nathan took the time to understand what I wanted and why. Nathan also took time to designing it and so worth the little bit of time to make sure it is what I wanted. The Shop is clean, sterile use of items is a big go / no go and they have the proper up to date equipment to make sure you are safe. Inside shop experience- everyone is nice and outgoing. Will make you feel like you're with friends while getting tattooed. If you're reading reviews for which shop to go to, pick Big Bear and you will be happy with your choice.i read more

I wanted to have a great tribute to my daughter with Down's Syndrome; I showed them multiple pictures of the very simplistic 3 arrow international symbol design. Yes, it was minimal, but when done UPSIDE DOWN and then it was my fault we "discussed placement" yes we did but i don't do this for a living when I showed you multiple pictures of what i wanted and it is upside down on my arm now it's my fault and a shop minimum of $60 for something that any other shop would have charged $30-40 for. My fault in thinking you were reputable and no pre or post consult, no post care or instructions, had multiple tattoos and this was not how it was handled. totally unprofessional and without concern for post procedure care or satisfaction with result her comment was well i showed you where it would be, yes on my arm, but it wasn't upside down then when you showed it to me. And customer relations was well that's your fault. You've got it now and you owe us money. read more
