This will be a long review, but it's definitely worth reading. 5 years ago (at a different tattoo…read moreshop, Skinsations in Kingsport TN) I was absolutely butchered. I began a full sleeve and had several pieces placed and then moved on to water colors as the background. The "artist" I went to did a good job on the multiple pieces, and said he could absolutely do water colors as the background. Once the session began I noticed it wasn't getting better, but he assured me to trust the process. After 5 sessions and arrived for my 6th I was very concerned as my arm looked like a child may have polka dotted me from top to bottom. He wanted to begin on the back of my arm first and it just so happened another artist walked by and said "what is that?". My so called artist said "I'm doing a spin off on her elbow." Guess what? I had no idea he was doing circles around my elbow. I immediately made him stop and I left. For the past 5 years I have been wearing nothing but long sleeve shirts because I was so embarrassed of my arm. I found a few other tattoo shops along the way that said they couldn't fix it unless we lightened the background and I wanted it black. No one would help me so I gave up because I really thought no tattoo shop in the tri cities was worth their salt. So, this past summer while on vacation, I was in 100 degrees wearing long sleeve, so I gave it another go at a shop in Gray TN. I was completely hosed. I went in for a 2 hour session and Chelsey. the "artist" got up multiple times and left me sitting. she had to get a drink, she had to get a table that someone was dropping off...etc.... she charged me for the full 2 hours when it was like 30 minutes. I was done! I let another season pass and I could not take it anymore. I found Little Chicago and I decided this would be my last attempt. it was my last attempt because my arm is now almost 100% complete and beautiful all because of an artist named Raven. I cannot believe how much she has changed this arm and it's truly a masterpiece. I am so excited to be back in short sleeve shirts and my confidence level is so high because of her work. Please, take this advice, if you really care about how your tattoos are going to look, you really should contact Raven at Little Chicago. Melissa
