As you first drive in the parking is located at the back of the building. To get to the parking. You have to drive between two building. There is plenty of parking. Once you enter the building. The decorations are pretty neat. The tattoo parlor is to your left. It is an interesting place to visit because of the decor. I saw old fashion dolls around. It was diferent. The store is to the right side. No photography allowed inside (bummer) inside is a store. An odd type of store. Is like stuff that was left from a freak show back in the day. It is really earie. I felt like I was in American Horror Story Carnival. It was very cool. They have a sign at the entrance. The sign reads something like browsing is welcome and that donations are appreciated. Not exactly on those words lol. So if you are browsing like me. You might want to bring a few dollars.

unsatisfied and felt lied to…read more I booked this appointment 3 months in advance with a clearance on size, reference, and placement with Rafael and his assistant. Upon arrival Rafael drew something up to his liking of my reference but it was completely different than what I was expecting. In minor shock I was silent. I have two full stomach tattoos, 3 portraits, a half leg sleeve, and a back neck tattoo all done by differing artist and none have ever changed what i wanted so drastically. Rafael felt my vibe being off and then offered me to work with him on what we could do. Not dead set on the tattoo I originally showed him 3 months in advance I asked if he did portraits as I would like one more. He pointed to one that I already had and blatantly asked "why don't you just go back to that artist?". Once again I was taken aback by the comment. After discussing not doing another tattoo we set back on track for the original reference and idea I provided. He drew something much closer to what I wanted but I asked for more detail. He assured me there would be more detail in the actual tattoo than in the drawing. He also assured me that the sizing wasn't an issue and would connect to my other tattoos. After he was 'finished' neither promises were kept. The tattoo looks unfinished in detailing especially in comparison to what I asked for and in the look of my tattoo style. The tattoo also does not fade into my other tattoo shading. This is so disappointing as he had an apprentice with him who was listening to Rafael call himself extremely talented and gifted and naturally amazing at tattooing. This also left me so unsatisfied I decided to pay and leave as he did not want to (or could not) do what I asked for. I will now have to spend more money with a different artist to finish what he started.

There are many styles of tattooing and even more opinions on those styles, but the actual skill of…read moretattooing the ink into your skin is undebatable and evident in every piece. TYC Tattoo has the experience to handle all styles of tattooing with precision and skill, although they draw much inspiration from Japanese and traditional styles. Their shop is clean and almost as important, its inviting. Between the owner Jason, Mario, Marine, and their various guest artists, someone can match your style and preferences. Mario A.: I have 3 tattoos so far from Mario A., but plans for many more with him. Mario can take your vague idea and lend his artistic eye to create a piece you will love. As with every expert, its important to let their experience guide you through the process. I particularly like Mario's color saturation, and his faces (snakes, dragons, etc.).

I wasn't sure if simply walking in without a prior appointment would be a good idea or not but it was perfectly fine. This place has about 10 (or more) different tattoo artists. I worked with Diego on mine. He was super cool and friendly. It's funny because as I was getting the tattoo done, I noticed several artists working at the same time, I realized it was rather quiet. You don't hear the drilling noise of the machines. And they are all wireless now too. I will definitely be coming back for a couple more tattoos with Diego.

I tried to disregard and continued through the process of selecting an earring and place to pierce my ear, but when I went to the bathroom just before the piercing, I nearly threw up. The stench and condition of the bathroom was worse than any rest stop public restroom I've ever been in. By the time u laid down on the table for the piercing, once again her body odor was so overwhelming, I couldn't handle another second and had to make an excuse that I was having 2nd thoughts. I had such high hopes for this place and would love to try again if this is resolved.

Nervously walking in after making the decision of getting my nose pierced, Sweet Leaf staff made me…read morefeel safe immediately. I was greeted with a smile and the process was explained to me. I chose the jewelry I preferred and then I waited for a few minutes while the technician went to prepare everything to be sterilized for the procedure. It didn't take long before I was called in. She explained how the process would go and some of the things I would experience which was very helpful to me. The procedure itself had a quick painful moment. It didn't last long at all. Before I realized, we were done and my nose was sparkling with my new piece of jewelry! I wish I remember the name of the technician to give her a shout out, but if you're reading this, you were awesome :) Afterwards, I was explained the healing process and how I needed to take care of my new nose ring. Overall, it was a great experience. I think most importantly to me is that the staff made me feel safe, welcomed, and I felt informed of what was about to happen which me being nervous, made a huge difference! Ps. I think the nose ring looks epic ;) thank you!

The lines are all wiggly, shading looks like it was with a colored pencil, and you can feel it clearly when you touch my skin. Made me wear a long sleeve for months until I finally found a new artist and got the courage to get another tattoo, and he was able to fix it and blend it in to a sleeve so it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb and now it looks half decent at least. Dude is an old miserable a-hole. And get this: I was at a bar nearby chatting with some folks about the tattoo, because I saw a guy making a tattoo design on his iPad, and turns out his friend who he was with also got a messed up tattoo by the same guy. He said he is a drunk. Completely wild. The tattoo artist told me to check the reviews and this the first thing we see, lmao. He reports all his bad reviews and if they don't get deleted he hides them (mainly google allows this, but yelp does sometimes too. Press "lowest" to see some of the real.

I walked away with a unique piece that I'll be proud to wear and show off for the rest of my life. Thank you, C.J., for creating something so special.

It didn't matter how many times I would clean the new piercings or what I did it would always get infected. I was determined to have my second piercing so a friend recommended this place and I gave them a try. As soon as you enter you will see clowns and video game machines and lots of jewelry to choose from. They accept walk ins so we didn't make an appointment. The shop was empty on the Sunday afternoon when we went, so we were attended to quickly. The staff is not the friendliest which is why I'm not giving them 5 stars. We were told we would have options to choose from for the jewelry and we were not given any options. The tattoo artist was not very talkative nor communicative. It's been a month and I've had 0 issues with my piercings. The piercing on the left and right ear have not been infected, Ive had no discomfort, and no pain. This is the longest a piercing has lasted me. The tattoo artist is clearly a good piercer and good at what he does. My friend got her helix pierced and she also hasn't had any issues and has had a smooth healing. If you're like me who has had issues in the past with piercings, I suggest to giving this artist a try.
