I looked him up on Instagram, and was extremely impressed with his work. I reached out to schedule an appointment with him at the event, it was a great experience. I sent some designs in, as well as a picture of where I wanted it located. It was hard to find an artist who works with Celtic designs, but he was excited to work with me and my idea. When it came time to attend the show and meet him, I was even more impressed. Great conversationalist, and awesome human. I highly recommend contacting him for work if you live in Ohio.

She nailed the artwork and took the time to review everything with me again before we started to make sure it was exactly as I wanted it. She worked quickly and was easily able to complete 3 tattoos within our 4 hour appointment window. She even had time left to add a little color to one of the tattoos which made me super happy since I thought I'd have to go back for another appointment to get the color done. I've already recommended her to my son who is looking to get some work done.

The girl at the front desk was extremely pleasant (both times I was there), which somehow helped calm my nervousness about meeting with the doc for my first tattoo removal. I met with Dr Kates, who was so cool and easy going, which again really helped me stay calmer than I wanted to feel. (The anticipation is the worst!) She explained the hows and whys of the procedure asked if I wanted to get to it right then and there, explained that it would take 15min *tops*, but unfortunately I had to come back another day. When I came back a few days later, same great, low key, this-is-no-big-deal experience and the process of lasering my tattoo away took so little time, I was floored. Honestly, I don't think I could have had a better experience. Also I have to say the fact that they offer discounts for tattoo removal for people joining the military is so awesome. And yes it is painful, but not more painful than actually getting tattooed on some of the more tender parts of the body!

The piercer, a white woman with black hair, was unfriendly and came across as snarky and rude from the very beginning. Instead of taking my friend to a private area, she had her lift up her shirt in the lobby. She then had her sit on the couch, looked her up and down, shook her head, and told her she was "too fat" for a belly button piercing and that she didn't have the right anatomy. Whether or not someone is a candidate for a piercing, there is a respectful and professional way to communicate that. The way she spoke to my friend was humiliating and unnecessarily hurtful. My friend already struggles with body image, and hearing those comments from another woman left her feeling embarrassed and ashamed. Watching someone treat another person that way was upsetting. After leaving, we went to another piercing shop, where the piercer evaluated her professionally and completed the piercing without any issues. We were also told that the interaction we experienced at True Art Tattoo was handled in a very unprofessional manner. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend True Art Tattoo. We encountered rudeness, body shaming, and a complete lack of compassion and professionalism. No customer should leave feeling belittled over their body.
