Joey has done 3 tattoos for me now. His linework is INCREDIBLE and his prices are very reasonable (rowboat cost me $100). He was so nice and walked me through my first tattoo in a calm and reassuring manor. He's a great guy and if you are looking for 5 star service this is the man you should go to. I still love all of them so much and am so happy I struck gold with a guy like joey on my first go :) read more

I've been going to HOF for several years now. I've becoming very acquainted with everyone there and Ethen has done all my ink. This is a great shop that has gone through many cosmetic transformations and looks the best it's ever looked. A huge saltwater aquarium greets you, along with a large wall mural, when you walk in. There are several artists to choose from, and you can do flash or your own design. They are skilled & courteous. If you're looking for ink, stop here first. read more

I would NOT trust any other place to do my tattoos, these people are the best around. Nobody else even comes close to their level of skill!

I cannot recall her name but had a tattoo here by a female artist who was amazing. Highly recommend

Whether you're looking to get your first tattoo, or an avid collector, you won't find a better shop in town. I've never seen any work come out of this shop I wasn't impressed with. Each artist works great with each other and can recommend a different artist in the shop if that artist is better at the style you're looking for. Jake has done all of my work and I couldn't imagine going anywhere else. Great folks, and great shop! read more

Everyone at Hearts of Fire is insanely nice and really fun to be around. I got my first tattoo here and will honestly never go to another tattoo place for a long time, and hopefully in my lifetime. Matt was my artist and he was funny and kept me engaged while he was doing the work. You can't go wrong here! Give them all of your tattoo business, they deserve it!!! read more

Best tattoo shop in Springfield and surrounding areas. Very clean and everyone there is pretty awesome. Steve does my tattoos and he's the bomb!! 10/10 would recommend everyone to check them out!! read more

Tyler is an excellent artist, great and honest guy. Could not ask for any better. Gave him a couple of pictures and let him take it from there. It's better than I could have imagined. Very fair on price. I will be back to see him.. read more

Had some color done to a previous tattoo. Immediately knew something was wrong because within hours that area was very tender. It took a long time to heal and there was lots of scarring. I tried to get in for over 2 years to have this work touched up. Even stopped in after my phone calls were not returned. They said the ink fell out and that happens to some people's skin. I've had lots of work done before this at another shop and never had ink fall out. In the end the artist went to fast. All I wanted was the work touched up but again could never get them to schedule me an appointment form one reason or another. I ended up going back to the individual that did the line work and paid him to touch it up. read more

I was tattooed by Ethen two years ago. I came in and expressed an idea to him (without any example pictures) and he got to work on an outline. He came up with it all on his own and nailed it on the first try, I didn't want to change a thing. He and everyone I encountered at the shop were super professional and created a very inviting environment. I never went in for a touch up because I didn't feel my tattoo needed it, and two years later it STILL looks amazing. Vivid colors, crisp lettering and line work, just an all around great quality tattoo. I plan to get a memorial piece for my mother who passed recently, as well as a piece for each of my children just as soon as I have my second baby and am able to get tattooed once again. I know Hearts of Fire can be trusted with such sentimental tattoos, and I'd recommend them to anyone and everyone. read more

This happened about a year ago, but I'm finally calm enough to write a proper review... A couple of my friends had some work done at Hearts of Fire with an artist named Sarah and they looked absolutely amazing. Both of them had black freehand lettering and since I was interested in getting the Deathly Hallows symbol and the word "believe" underneath with some stars to the side, I knew she was more than capable of giving me what I wanted. I live about 2 hours away so I made the appointment over the phone and we emailed back and forth discussing what I was wanting and how much it would cost. They had all of my info and knew I was traveling 2 hours for the appointment. When I arrived at 5pm a man named Steve greeted me... He said Sarah was "deathly ill" and wouldn't be able to tattoo me that day. He apologized and asked if I would like to reschedule but said if not he would be happy to tattoo me himself. Since I had already spent 2 hours on the road, wasted gas money, my time, and had 2 more hours or driving ahead of me, I didn't want to just call it a day and go back home. Who wants to be on the road for 4 hours for absolutely no reason. I understand people get sick, but I emailed them that morning and included all of my contact info just in case. One way or another someone SHOULD have contacted me beforehand. They all share the same email account... Disappointed as I was, the place looked really clean and had an extremely professional atmosphere so I decided to let him do it. I figured he had to have skill to work at a place like this. I even brought the images and wording in the font I wanted printed out in the exact size I needed. All he had to do was make a stencil and stamp it on me. Simple, right? Well I thought things were going okay but I should have looked in the mirror after he stamped the stencil on my wrist... The way my arm was laying was not really natural and when I show it to someone or have my arm out naturally you can tell it's totally stretched. I wasn't immediately happy with the stencils placement either and after a couple of adjustments he said, "You better like it this time because I'm not doing it again." I should have left at that point but I felt like maybe I was being ridiculous and let him continue instead. Seriously though... You only get one body and tattoos are FOREVER. He then ended up jabbing into me a couple of times while doing the stars and later it was those areas that got infected, took forever to heal and ended up losing the pigment after the shedding process was completed. I asked him to thicken the lines on the symbol and he went over them in a couple of places but I couldn't really tell any bit of a difference. I was too afraid of his response if I asked him to do it again. He also went back over the l and i in "believe" which I didn't ask for and later those ended up being thicker and blurred. I had a small yellow Mario star next to the work he was doing so I asked if he would be willing to go over the outline of it so it looked fresh again. With it being MAYBE half and inch wide and tall and a single black outline I didn't think he would care. He already had more than enough black ink out and it took less than 30 seconds to do. He gruffly said, "Yeah, but you'll have to give me a good tip". He also charged me more than Sarah had quoted me anyway. To top it all off, not realizing it at the time with his annoyance towards me through the entire sitting, he didn't reverse my stencil and did the Deathly Hallows symbol backwards! This has been my hands down WORST tattoo experience ever... I would not recommend having even a single dot tattooed by Steve. EVER! My friends still go there and get work done by Sarah and I'm sure she is fabulous, but I didn't even want to go back for my "free" touch up with Steve. After a year of disappointment and regret every time I look at my wrist, I'm finally going to another artist and paying them to fix the hack job Steve did. Unfortunately there is no way to reverse the symbol... It was meant to look hand drawn/painted and have an open part of the circle which is the wrong way so I'm just going to close it and probably thicken and straiten all the lines. I am still frustrated. I am still angry. The way he treated me as a paying customer is completely unforgivable. read more
