I discussed my idea and her creation was all I imagined and more. She was caring and careful, professional through the entire process. I highly recommend her not just for her technical ability but also for her artistic talents. Don't miss this hidden gem in Sycamore. Make an appointment with Starr. You won't be disappointed!

I went in for a simple line work tattoo on my upper arm. I thought i was getting one of the actual…read moretattoo artists but instead i got the apprentice. (no, i am not upset at the apprentice they handled the situation very well but they also were watching a movie on the TV that they have while doing my tattoo...) an hour goes by and my tattoo is finished, it got wrapped up they took pictures and off i went. I got home and my tattoo was missing a nose, minor piece just a dot but still it makes a difference. I went back later that day and they said they could fix it the next. FASFORWARD THE NEXT DAY... i walk into the shop the apprentice is sick so now the actual tattoo artist has to fix it. Great. They did not have the picture of my tattoo up they just put whatever they felt looked right and when they asked if there was anything else that was missed they asked in such a rude way like they were being inconvenienced by fixing my tattoo that THEYRE apprentice messed up... i'm not going back there nor letting anyone close to me go to this tattoo business. i'm sorry this was so long.

Dakota not only knocked it out of the park, he was the consummate professional, and demonstrated a profound understanding of how important his job is when it comes to deeply personal works of skin art. I've had work done from Germany to Joliet Penitentiary, and more than a few places in between, and this experience by far was the most sublimely pleasant. One of the many reasons I love Crystal Lake and life in the far suburbs, and one of the many reasons I'll have to make the drive back out here when I end up having to move back to the city in a few weeks.

If you are looking to get a quality tattoo done at an extremely reasonable price you want to come here. I had an Aztec hieroglyphic done on my leg by some other dude in Roscoe many years ago and the quality was garbage. The lines were uneven and faded out. After a long time I decided to get it redone. I met with Paul and scheduled a date. When the time came he knocked it out the park. The final piece was what I wanted all along. Something to be proud of. A real quality piece. While I was there I got a new piece done below the old one. It came out looking awesome too. I am super satisfied with their work and plan on getting my entire leg done here. Don't waste your time at other places. You need to come here.

They are clean and very professional. Both tattoo artists have portfolios available to view so you can get an idea of their style before deciding on which artist to go with. I suggest making an appointment because they get booked up REALLY fast, especially during the peak days (Fridays and Saturdays). They also accept walk-ins but you may want to call ahead to see if they are busy. They've got TONS of designs on the walls but you can bring in your own design, or pictures of something you like, and they'll customize it at no extra cost! They do piercings and airbrush t-shirts (they can airbrush pretty much anything). One of the things I like the most about this place is that they have separate rooms for everything- tattoos, piercings, airbrushing, etc. The rooms also have doors so you don't have to worry about lurkers peeking in while you get a tattoo or piercing in a "private" area, or if you just don't want an audience while you get your tattoo or piercing.

So we came back about an hour or so later and ended up having to still wait a little bit but, they have a large, comfortable, and very clean waiting area! They also have water bottles available to customers, which I think is smart at any tattoo shop. Everyone was super nice. They run the facility very professionally. By the time the piercer got there, he had a few people waiting other than us but was great about taking his time with my friend. Chris was very nice, professional and extremely clean. He made sure to ask my friend what exactly he wanted and it was quick and painless and affordable! I am loyal to my tattoo artist but if I ever needed somewhere new to check out I would definitely go back. I plan on returning to that piercer to get my nose done! So if you're looking for a nearby trustworthy tattoo shop, definitely check them out. I'll share a few pictures of the waiting area. I did not get pictures during the piercing process because it's a pretty small room.

Not only do his skills speak for himself, he's pretty damn funny and he's also always creating custom pieces that never fail to blow me away as well as every person that comes across his work. I've been coming here since probably 2013 to get work done and couldn't be happier, he gets me in at a time that works for both of us and works hard to ensure that I'm 100% happy and free with my choices, like color selection, etc. I don't think I'll be seeing another artist for awhile when I've got someone that can create CRAZY custom pieces at a good price. If you need ink you'll adore and you want something that can't be found on Pinterest, this is your place.
