I remember them being friendly to my younger self and that they asked me more than once if I was ready to be inked. Hopefully it was more for my care and concern and not because they thought what I was getting tatted was a trash idea. Yelp! Anyway, today I have seven tattoos and they all came from different shops.

This will define your experience. Nothing more, nothing less. Asepsis is not what sets you apart. It's what you should have from the get-go. This place is very clean, nice atmosphere, accept credit cards, has plenty of parking spaces, etc... the works. Now let's talk about what sets it apart: The artist Colleen B.! Skilled and creative professional with a can-do-attitude that will make you follow her wherever she will be tattooing. She is not only a SUPERB artist but she is also someone that has the people skills that is nice to have when you spend several hours with someone that close. Temple Tattoo is a great place simply because of an artist like her.

I came in with some art I found on Pinterest, but thought it would be nice to give her some creative freedom too. She came up with a small ghost for my wrist -- and I loved it instantly. Over the past week, I've gotten so many compliments on it. Turns out that I love it wayyyy more than my initial line wraparound! She made the process so smooth, gave great aftercare advice, and was just such a vibe the whole time. Huge shoutout to her, she does amazing work! I also want to shout out the rest of the crew I met during my session: Canada, Flaco, and Sam. They were so kind and welcoming. We vibed over books, life struggles, and everything in between. It all felt so genuine, like hanging out with friends. And it blew my mind that they remembered me when I attended the VB Tattoo Fest this weekend! For a first tattoo, I couldn't have asked for better people or a better experience. I'll definitely be adding more over time. I totally get the idea of "tattoo therapy" now - highly, highly recommend this place!

I originally tried getting a quote from another shop and they pushed me aside saying that my tattoo wasn't "big enough to warrant an appointment and should just be a walk in." I told Kelsey that since it was my first tattoo I wanted to make sure that I got exactly what I wanted without feeling rushed. Once we set up our consultation she went out of her way to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted. We had to reschedule a couple times due to my schedule and she was understanding about that as well! Once we got started she offered me lots of breaks and checked in multiple times to make sure that I was feeling okay. I am beyond obsessed with my tattoo and I can't wait to head back for more from her! She gave me her personal number and said multiple times that I should reach out with any concerns I might have.

I highly recommend this place for piercings. Now, they do not let you take pictures of the process, which is fine with me, because I'm not 21 anymore (haha!), but some people may not like that. They do have a tip jar OR you can now tip on your card at the end (they also have an atm in there). My friend and I really enjoyed our time here, and the piercings were done quickly. The longest part was us picking out our jewelry. I'll go here again for any other piercings I feel led to get. High quality!
