Great tattoo! Good pricing and artist was awesome. My sister and I got tatts together and we had…read morethe place to ourselves it was really pretty awesome. They are very professional and the best part my tattoo did not scab up at all once I removed the second skin tape it was totally healed and gorgeous! There is a small area on my tattoo that carries a small extra line which was not part of the tattoo...I was not totally upset with it because it does still look gorgeous. I do wish I had seen it sooner though cause I probably would have asked for it to be thicker to cover that up. However now I think of it as if it's part of the journey... this tattoo represents my journey in this life as a warrior and so I am looking at it as a slight off journey portion where I needed time to heal. in this way all is as out should be.

Updated review: I…read morewant to clarify the timeline based on my emails with Jesica. I did ask to see a sketch before canceling. On the Monday my finished sketch was promised, Jesica emailed asking for direction, which made it clear that no design had been started or completed. I replied asking to see any progress at all, even a rough draft, so I could provide guidance. After that, she stopped responding completely. I only canceled after she ghosted me and had not delivered any work despite a full in-person consultation and detailed instructions. This was not a matter of impatience or disliking a design. The concern was that no work was ever produced or shared, and my requests for proof of progress were ignored. I am posting this so other potential clients have an accurate record of what happened. Paying a deposit for work that is never delivered and being left without communication is unprofessional. Original review: I met with Jesica Sanchez in person to talk about a custom tattoo and gave her all the details for what I wanted. I told her the idea was a little open so she could have creative freedom and show me her vision. I paid a $100 deposit and she told me I would get the finished sketch the Monday before my appointment. That Monday she emailed saying she was still "trying to come up with a concept" and needed more direction. That was the second email from her saying basically the same thing, which made it clear she hadn't even started by the time the finished sketch was supposed to be done. At that point I told her it was fine, I understood that what I was asking for would rely on the artist more than Google image so I'd just find another artist since she hadn't started. Then she told me she couldn't refund my deposit because she had "already spent so much time" on it. When I asked her to show me ANY kind of sketch so I could give feedback, even if she wasn't happy with it, she completely stopped responding and ghosted me. She never showed any work, never communicated again, and kept my deposit. I was really excited to work with her but this was completely unprofessional and dishonest. I'm posting this so other people don't go through the same thing. Be careful before paying her anything upfront.

I worked with Jesica Sanchez for about 4 months. Her tattoos are beautiful, but her scheduling is a…read morenightmare. My first tattoo was rescheduled once, touch ups and shading went fine, but my second tattoo didn't even end up happening. She rescheduled me after double booking the day I was originally scheduled for, then was incredibly difficult to get a hold of for a month to set a date to reschedule. Finally, the day of the new appointment came around and Jesica was a no show. She did not respond to emails, Instagram messages, or texts from coworkers. I waited 45 minutes before leaving my contact info with her coworker and heading out. Two hours after my appointment, I got a message from her saying that she had looked at the wrong week in her calendar. No idea what's happening with my deposit, but I'm not going through the scheduling run around with Jesica again. Very unprofessional and frustrating.

It feels like the lines and shading will be exactly as expected once healed, this was my 8th tattoo and had bad experiences elsewhere, so happy with this one! In addition on day two, it's not red as others I've had previously that had issues, which means it's healing nicely. I highly recommend him. I also want to recommend the piercer (I don't remember her name ) I got lucky she was available each time I was there and was able to get amazing earrings for my previous piercings... she was knowledgeable and very professional as well as put them in without any problems. Also, they followed up to get me scheduled when I asked, I always remember things later than when places are open so it was a blessing to have them call me! Highly recommend them! My second tattoo was also done by Dogstar in 1998, they were great then and even better now!
