When I entered, I was greeted warmly by the staff and asked what I needed assistance with. I told them I would like a tattoo and asked for pricing. They gave me a fair price and I was assigned someone to get that piece of work done. The individual assigned to me was very nice and respectful. They were very skilled in their craft and I appreciated the friendliness of the associate. It made my experience a lot better, and it slightly took away from the pain of getting the tattoo (they never get easier). Overall, I'm very impressed with the service of the staff and the tattoo. I recommend anyone looking to get a tattoo to come to this location. I will definitely be returning here for more work!

All for an affordable price. I appreciate the surgical steel and not having to ask too many questions in that regard. I would say my only "qualm" if you can even call it that, is that they don't send you home with any cleaning solutions. You have to make it yourself. It's easy - distilled water and salt - but there's something about having a shop provide it to you that makes you trust it more. They could also probably increase price slightly if they added that...just a business reco from me. But I'm happy!!

I initially chose to use this piercing studio because I liked the way the exterior of the building…read morelooked with its Ouija inspired graphics. I was directed to the website where it was easy to arrange an appointment, and that appointment happened to be with the owner of the establishment. Once I got there for my appointment, I was in awe of the interior decor as well, which was really nicely decorated and had a very cool indoor plant garden, of sorts. I was greeted very professionally, and then was shown all the options available for my dermal piercing, which was fantastic! I didn't realize I would be given such a massive selection to choose from, which got me really giggity lol. It took me a few minutes, but I made my selection and then proceeded to wait in the lobby until I was called. It was there that I became more in awe- especially after seeing his pressed penny machine. I have literally never walked by a pressed penny machine without choosing to partake, so that was RAAAAD! Now, I don't want to think about my age hahaaa but it's been at least 20 years since my last piercing. Clay was VERY thorough in letting me know all the details about THIS type of piercing, which I didn't previously know. Apparently- dermals WILL eventually work their way out, which didn't make me change my mind- but can certainly sway others against it. He stressed that it was only a matter of time, but I am grateful for knowing this so I don't need to freak tf out when the time comes hahaaa. Aside from that- this dude had an amazing personality-very caring and communicated well all thru the process. I don't plan on ever going anywhere else for a piercing or body jewelry, as I am HOOKED!

A tattoo artist should never be chosen on a whim. Spend some time and check out several studios and…read morefind one that appeals to you. I say this, because I am confident that if you see Shane Hart's work and then shop around, you will see for yourself why he is known as one of the premier tattoo artists in the metropolitan area. Shane is an awesome, original and true artist, located in a very non-typical, tattoo studio in the quiet KC suburb of Mission, Kansas. A far cry from the dingy flash art tattoo parlors that I used to see, just outside of military bases, during my time in the service. He is very fair priced for his level of mastery and talent. You get what you pay for, so if you want cheap flash art, go elsewhere, and be happy with your thick lined, sloppy, jailhouse looking tattoo, that I see so many folks bragging about, at the gym. If you appreciate true art, want originality and creativity along with personal meaning and perspective, then you owe it to yourself to go check out Shane's portfolio and see for yourself what he can do for you, all with the latest equipment and techniques. If you have any doubts about this review, then stop by and see his work for yourself. When you book your session, be patient, and let him do his magic with your idea. Then he'll present it to you for approval, and finally, put it to ink. His portrait work is (insert preferred explicative) amazing. He tattooed a WWII portrait of my father, taken in Nice France in 1944 and the replication is lifelike and uncanny. The one of my father was actually a cover of a tattoo he did, back in 1995 or 96, when working at East Coast Al's. It had faded somewhat, due to sun exposure and lack of sunscreen, and in truth, no longer had significant meaning to me. It was an amazing tattoo, for 20 years, but it was time for something new. I wanted something to show my pride in my late father's heroism in WWII. The finished product was a great tattoo, and tribute, and you'd never know it was a cover. Point is, Shane can cover up an old tattoo for whatever your reason; a bad tattoo, faded tattoo, a tattoo of your ex, or an updated creation, just because you want something new. If you've ever seen a bad cover art, you will really appreciate Shane's talent, in this aspect. In my case, there is simply no sign of my former tattoo, (and it was big). I currently have several tattoos by Shane, each with different styles and themes. Even though they are complete, in and of themselves, two of them will have additional ink and new features as he blends subsequent 'chapters' to both themes. There is a reason Shane is booked up, months in advance..so plan ahead. It is worth the wait. I have never taken upon myself to write Yelp review, before now. That speaks for how much I respect Shane's talent. I've just seen a lot of bad tattoo work out there, and I hope by sharing this review, I can help folks, who are searching for that first tattoo experience, or simply searching for a new artist. Educate yourself, and see the differences between various artists. Take time and make the right decision. For me, it was this studio. Not a here today and gone tomorrow tattooist.
