See all

Our Favorite Tattoo Shop! I got my first tattoo here and it was a deeply memorable experience. There is a very friendly atmosphere as soon as you walk in, with a great music selection to listen too. My tattoo artist took his time listening to and drawing my idea and it turned out 100x better than I imagined. When it came time to tattoo, I barely felt anything at all. I was amazed! My artist was very receptive to my input and made me feel so comfortable. I could not imagine a better experience for a first tattoo. My wife has many tattoos and she was also raving about her experience with her artist. We are thrilled with our new tattoos and mine is not even bleeding. Thank you Everett Tattoo Emporium! read more

So it's been two years and im still not over it so I am wrtiting my review. In August of 2021 (peak pandemic) my husband thinking he was being romantic went out and bought me a $400 gift certificate from Everett Tattoo Emporium as he knew I wanted to get a tattoo for my birthday. He worked hard for that money and it was an incredibly sweet gesture on his part. I was so excited, went to their website and called to book an appointment. I was told to reach out to the artist on Instagram. Okay I thought, rather than talking to a direct person and scheduling an appointment I had to download a social media app to contact a service provider. I reached out to ALL of the artists and the first one to get back to me is who I scheduled with. Shai, met me at the appointment a few minutes late. I was excited and a little nervous as tis was a new experience for me. I showed her several images of what I was considering and she told me she didn't do pinteresty stuff, which I found incredibly offensive! I did NOT find my tattoo idea on pinterest. I have also been looking forward to getting this tattoo for 20 freakin years. Rather than litsen to me and what I was hoping to get out of it she assured me she was an artist and could create a masterpiece for me although that wasn't what I was looking for. She informed me that she NEVER shows clients the tattoo until the day of the appointment. I told her that felt extreme as tattoos are permanent and it is a big decision. She told me that's how it works. I left feeling incredibly unsettled. Next week, she cancels my appointment saying her prior client was going over time. I said okay, I understand can you at least send me a picture of the tattoo...she reminded me that only on the day of. After feeling incredibly unsettled and put off I decided to call every other shop near my home. After speaking with MULTIPLE shops and basically everyone I know with tattoos and everyone I came across with tattoos I was advised that I should go somewhere else. So I called the shop asked to speak with the manager, of course the front desk wanted to know why I was calling. I didn't want to share as I assumed that I would be the talk of the shop, a customer asking for a refund for a tattoo gift certificate had NEVER happened before. Sure enough, the manager called me and was SO perplexed about why I would have an issue with not wanting to trust a permanent thing on my body with someone who didn't listen to me, insulted my ideas, and basically blew me off. I reiterated that I didn't feel comfortable trusting her to tattoo me when I didn't even know what the tattoo was! I had been so excited as I said, been waiting 20 freaking years for this. The manager was nice, although he informed me that they didn't refund gift certificates and he could try to help me out. I assured him that I had already messaged HIM and all other active artists in the shop without a response. Who has to chase down people to do work and get paid?! He sat on it over the weekend and called me back as he seemed concerned that this could "go badly" his words. I had already contacted someone else at another shop who drew up my tattoo and already had me on the books for the following week. So with all this being said, I have NEVER felt more angry or disgusted with an experience where I was given a GIFT. It has been two freaking years and I still feel cheated out of a hard earned gift that I never recieved. Learning lesson for myself and my husband to do our research before trusting an establishment such as this. Still have the gift certificate if anyone wants it...oh wait...it probably has expired. This company who did NOTHING for us other than cause me tears and hours of stress and anxiety got 400 dollars of my family's hard earned money. Shame on them and I would NOT recommend ANYONE come here. read more

I needed a last minute walk-in appointment because it was my birthday and I wanted a tattoo. I wasn't even sure exactly what I wanted but I wanted some sort of tree. I called at least 10 different shops in the area and was told over and over again that no walk-ins were accepted or that they were booked. I was super sad because I definitely wanted a tattoo THAT day. I finally called Everett Tattoo Emporium because I drive by there pretty regularly and happenned to be driving by while I was trying to think of more shops to call. Beetle answered and said that he would love to have me as a walk-in and would Love to do a tattoo on me. When I came in, I still hasn't decided what I wanted. I finally chose to get a palm tree, and beetle came up with a few designs he liked and also let me look at some of his other work. He made sure I was comfortable the entire time, gave me a perfect deal in my price range, and was able to hold an excelend conversation! Thank you Beetle! read more

Not me but a friend. Shame on you guys for not fixing it! I'll never go! Don't pay go unless you wanna get scammed! I just wanna clarify I paid 350 dollars to get this cover up on my throat! Went to Everett Tattoo Emporium and had the first session done. Came back a month later like I was told too and they legitimately said we fired the artist. So I asked can y'all pay me back or finish my tattoo. Mind you all that's left is coloring and shading. Wel they proceeded to tell me no they can't it's up to me to figure it out and I even asked for the tattoo artists name they refused to enclose that as well. Don't go to this tattoo shop unless you wanna hear excuses why my hard earned money was basically taken from me and no consequences where delt. On my world we call that stealing Please share this so we can inform other future customers of where to go and where to not go. Nobody should get stolen from under any circumstance. Thank y'all for your time have a wonderful day. read more

This is a piercing only review! We walked in to the shop on a Monday afternoon after being disappointed by Hot Rod Heidi's aka Sunken ship tattoo's lack of piercers on Monday's (no harm no foul we still love them!) Sometimes a lady or three of us to be exact need a spur of the moment piercing and Johan was happy to help. He was so informative and so kind and so easy to work with. At no point during questions did he act condescending or elitist. We had three different types of piercings to be done and he cleaned thoroughly after each one, was very efficient and then explained after care very precisely. I would return or recommend him to anyone. So glad we popped in and got pierced! read more

Tony has done all 4 of my pieces. I started my collection when I was 18 and I am now 22. My biggest piece is the Cherry Blossoms on my left arm, the start to my sleeve. Tony came in on his day off to work on me because it was the only time slot I had for the next month. 5 hours he put up with me and my squirming. Always making sure I was drinking water and had plenty of fresh air breaks. I miss the old location because of how grungy and stereotypical it was. But the new place is as good as any.(: I'm looking forward to working with Tony again. He's a great guy and can talk about anything. It's always a pleasure to work with him (: read more

I was referred here by a friend for a piercing, so happy I came here! Super clean, talked me through the piercing and post procedure care process. They were friendly and quick! read more

If I could give no stars I would. No one should use someone else's work without permission. If a client brings you someone else's work either get permission refuse or put your own spin on it. Have respect for the other artist, yourself and your shop. read more

I came in today as a walk-in to get some semi-spontaneous piercings with a friend. The shop was clean, the environment was chill, and Johan knew his art. He walked me through the process of piercing my septum as he did it, educated me on both jewelry and aftercare, and was all around a nice and professional dude. He even described how he works with the asymmetrical properties of the face to make things look right - my nose is totally asymmetrical and the fact that he understood how to work with it was great. I am blown away by his thoroughness, from the act of cleaning now vs. after the piercing has started to heal, all the way to product recommendations and answering questions about other products I've seen advertised for aftercare. I'm happy with my septum piercing and will totally be returning the next time I want to be stabbed in the face! read more

My two girlfriends and I wanted matching minimal tattoos. Beetle took on the task for us did not disappoint. He was professional and candid and gave us a few options to choose from. He made the experience for my friend's 1st tattoo so fun and perfect! He's definitely cut out for this line of work and dealing with all walks of life. The facility was cool with it's gallery style tattoo artistry. Old skool with new. I recommend this place, no hesitation . read more

Went in to get a double nose piercing and Craig was available right away. I have plenty of piercings and tattoos but for some reason I get light headed whenever getting piercing. And I am a heavy bleeder. Craig was very patient with me and talked me through the entire process. The piercing came out GREAT! He is very knowledgable in his craft and thoroughly explained the cleaning process and even wrote down my after care instructions. I had my nipples pierced here prior as well but they were done by Tony. Process went smoothly and my healing turned out great! Shop is clean and they are very friendly! I've been to a few shops and some of the artist can be jerks but definitely not the case here! I would highly recommend Everett Tattoo Emporium if you're looking to get pierced! read more

loved coming here! everyone was so welcoming and the shop was very nice. I got my tongue pierced here and my piercer Craig made sure that I didn't leave without knowing everything I needed to know about the healing and cleaning process of my piercing. I definitely will recommend this place to anyone looking for a piercing. read more

I've gone to Tony for two tattoos, two piercings and just recently got another piercing by Johan. But I also follow some of the other artists on Instagram like Catfish. I've never had any negative feelings about this shop. Very professional, incredible work. Tony did a cover up for me as well as tattooed my Nana's hand writing. He did such an incredible job. I'm also a huge wimp when it comes to tattoos and he is so calming and great at helping you through it. I've come to notice that some tattoo artist laugh at you when you wince or cry. Tony is the complete opposite. I just went the other day with my best friend to get belly button piercings by Johan. I have 6 piercings and other than the one by Tony I've never had a better piercing experience. Johan was incredibly knowledgable about the piercing, what could happen, what to use etc. My best friend was SUPER nervous about piercing over scar tissue and he took the time to calm her down, explain exactly what will happen and make her feel more comfortable. I cannot speak highly enough about the experience. He is an incredible piercer and I definitely will go back to him for any new piercings and send everyone I know to him. I've been tattooed and pierced at five other shops and now will never go anywhere else. This shop has been around for a long time for a reason. I promise you won't be disappointed!! read more

My girlfriends and I have been friends for over 30 years and decided to get a commemorative tattoo by Beetle. We explained our design and placement and Beetle helped formulate a more organic feel to our concept. I can't express enough how much Beetle eased our process. Two of us are long time patrons of the arts with multiple tattoos while 1 of us took some convincing to get her very first tattoo. Beetle explained every step and eased her through the process. We couldn't of had a better tattoo artist to walk her through this. We are so grateful to you Beetle! Beetle is not only a talented tattoo artist but a Creative Craftsman as well.... He restored a beautiful vintage barbers chair and made a sleek leather apron out of a 1 piece skin hide.... Which are immeasurable and being a designer myself, I can't help but admire his many talents.. Thank you for making this experience not only memorable but sharing your undeniable talent with us! Most of all thank you for playing in to our crazy antics and silliness through it all!!!! read more
