The artist doesn't know what the client wants till they get there so you may have to wait a bit. Same as with a hair. I had to wait about 30 min. Not a big deal. Aaron was my artist. He is fabulous. I showed him a picture and told him the little changes I wanted. He came back a little bit late with the outline just perfect. He was very nice, professional, and made me feel comfortable. I make jokes when I'm nervous and he was nice enough to laugh at them. His work was outstanding!! I will be going back for the other two that I want to get. They are very reasonably priced. I have been ripped off before. The place is great and a fun atmosphere. All of the guys were very friendly and made you feel welcome. Highly recommend.

We waited less than 15 minutes before being paired with Indigo, who was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. She took the time to help us choose new pieces, walking us through different options and even letting us hold the jewelry up to visualize how it would look. Although I was hoping to size down, I still had a bit of swelling, and Indigo thoughtfully recommended waiting another month. I really appreciated her honesty and care. She still helped change out my jewelry and also assisted my husband with switching out their septum. On top of that, she gave both of us helpful aftercare tips. I highly recommend Poke a Dotz. The staff are friendly, efficient, and professional. Every visit, I feel comfortable and safe. Their prices are affordable, and the customer service is top-notch.

She is an incredibly talented artist, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Two of my tattoos are originals she had posted as up for grabs online, but all the others are my little dreams she made into reality. She's also so sweet and fun to talk to, with excellent taste in so many things, down to Dateline hosts. On my most recent visit, I hit another *fun* milestone in my tattoo journey, getting a coverup (F U Joanne). Rolling my eyes at my past self, it was a rather emotional one. I just felt sad, silly, embarrassed, and was also getting what for me, is a memento mori, and very important to me on a personal level. Liz reassured me that it would be okay, and made me feel better just by being herself. Great energy for an anxious person like me to be around. I'm not always a baby during a session, only sometimes. Anyhoo, check out the pix if you're curious how that turned out. Great, obvi. Always great. I feel more beautiful every time I have a fresh piece done. I think this is the second? tattoo I've gotten at this location now, but it might be the third... Maybe two and one touch up? I LOVE colors, especially what Liz can do with them (my gyarados tattoo has something like 20 colors in it), so my appointments tend to be longer. I prefer them in one go, though as I get older I wonder if that's wise to keep doing. I'm so ready to tap out at hour three. I've for sure gotten studious snake in marigolds and wyvern in peonies, both on my back, at Forever Tattoo. The vibes work for me. I like the other artists and customers I've spoken to, and the nice, big bathroom that has plenty of room to change if needed. On my most recent visit, one of the other artists kept asking fun table topics type questions, which I suspect was a way to distract as well as a fun conversation to pass the time. It's a very comfortable place imo. Be aware they are cash only and the ATM available maxes out at $200. I have forgotten about this in the past because I am a mess, and needed to make a little errand before returning! They do take walk ins, if someone happens to be available. If that's not an option, you can book right at the front if you want. If you've never gotten a tattoo before I recommend booking a consultation in person.
