I was given THE BEST customer service! Sergio was my artist and he was so kind and easy to work…read morewith leading up to my appointment. I knew I wanted him from seeing his work years ago. Anyway, he was very professional and down to earth. I was very comfortable. He didn't have an "ink snob" attitude like some other artists I spoke to before coming to Gold Syndicate. When I got there, he showed me what he put together with all the details and things I wanted like we discussed. He nailed it! Perfect! Also, THIS PLACE IS PRISTINE when it comes to cleanliness! The floors literally shine and sparkle, not a spec of dust anywhere. Not that I was checking, it's just so noticeable how clean it is. I've been to tattoo shops before visiting or whatever with friends, and this place is by far the cleanest I've ever been to! They even have a well stocked and updated snack machine just incase you need something. As this was my first tattoo, it was all new to me and I was very impressed with the atmosphere! It had a really cool creative vibe to it that I could appreciate. Now, it was time to get my ink... Sergio killed it! He captured everything I wanted and did INCREDIBLE work !! Like, holy smokes!! I was so happy! This man is one hell of an artist!! And I also noticed Billy's art is really freaking good too! Their shading and detail is beyond impressive! While waiting in the lobby, I saw an artist named Chris (i think that was his name) speak to a potential new client that was very timid and shy, he was so polite him and patient while he inquired about what he was looking for. I've been treated poorly in that process in the past elsewhere, so I noticed how kind they were. These guys know what they're doing. Thank you Gold Syndicate! And thank you for such a wonderful experience as I enter the world of ink. lol I'm never ever going anywhere else!

I am not accustomed to how the owner does nails and asked to have a gel manicure. Because I questioned how he was doing my nails, because it is not how I am used to, he said I was difficult. We agreed that I would have a gel polish change because I did not want him to put any extra acrylic over my nails. I did not know that the polish change didn't include him shaping my nails and when I asked if he was going to do it he took offense that I said "aren't you going to shape my nails". He then cursed at me by telling me I was pissing him off and that it was bullshit and f'ing ridiculous. I have never observed an owner of a business acting as unprofessional as this guy! He refused to finish my nails and left them undone and told me to go somewhere else to get them finished. I felt that he should have been more respectful and understanding as I have never been here before and was not used to how he did nails compared to what I was accustomed to. I can't believe the way he cursed me out in front of another customer and left my nails the way he did. If I had looked at his reviews on here, I would have known how nasty this man is. His wife should be ashamed to work with him!! I see good reviews on here, must depend on what mood he is in that day. I hope if you decide to go there that he decides to be the professional that he should be as a business owner.
