The person I talked to online mentioned they would add me on the waitlist for that day. However upon showing up I was not on the list. That was a bit upsetting, but I understand that they were probably busy with the influx of customers. My artist was Jocelyn. And she definitely turned that rocky start into a great experience. She was friendly and very patient with my friend and I. Would definitely come back to her.

had a great experience at new generation with Jayden! cannot recommend her as an artist enough…read more i loved how excited she was to do my tattoo. she made sure to take time in speaking with me in regards to what i wanted. she was very good at letting me know what could and couldn't be done and what changes needed to occur. the appointment itself was very fun and not once did it feel awkward or weird - she has a very fun personality and it made talking with her (both in general and about the tattoo) very easy. she made sure to explain every single step of what she was doing and answered all of my questions, along with explaining proper aftercare. the art itself is beautiful, i love my dragon and Jayden's style is so pretty, i love the shading. i would highly suggest booking an appointment with her and plan on booking with her again in the future. thank you Jayden for the awesome tattoo and fun experience! i look forward to seeing you again :)

I reached out to Tattoo Nerds via Yelp. I was then contacted by Tiffany…read more I sent Tiffany a photo of what I wanted; she quoted me via texts and we scheduled the date and time. Tiffany was very nice and patient. She made sure that I had all of the answers before proceeding with the tattooing. It's about an inch tattoo on my arm, so it only took like 15min. The pain was manageable without any numbing cream. It was more intense when tattooing over some scars. I followed Tiffany's instructions on after care and everything went smoothly. It's been almost a month and I love how it turned out. I recommend Tiffany.

He took his time to walk me through everything: from what to expect, breathing techniques, possible pain levels, and made sure everything was perfectly aligned before starting. When we were about to begin, he and the rest of the staff at the shop hyped me up (thanks everyone!). And as soon as he started? I felt nothing. Sin was quick, precise, detailed and very light handed. I was originally only going to do half of my back piece in two sessions, but then we ended up staying late and finished it all in one night. 4 hours, a couple 15-minute breaks and a whole finished piece later, and I was absolutely amazed at how great of a job he did! I still have a few touch ups and cross to add, but wow! So far, I'm already in love with my tattoo. I've gotten tons of compliments on the crisp lines and intricate details he did! Sin is an amazing artist, I highly recommend you check out his work and set up a consultation. From setting up an appointment, to discussing my vision, to drawing it and then tattooing it - it was all a flawless process. Thank you to Sin and KT Dragon for making my first tattoo experience, a very memorable one!

This amazingly talented artist, Airu (@honeybeetattoo_airu) doesn't usually do touch-ups or add color (after so many years later). But considering we went to her to mark the year my healing began, it was extremely important to go back to her to commemorate what I was celebrating that day - the official end to my breast cancer journey. Airu is the first and only female artist that tatted me. She is kind, friendly, meticulous, and clean. When she heard about the reason for doing this, she made the exception to make it happen. What a gift! And we're forever grateful! When it fully heals, it will be even more fantastic than it was back then. A lil' more lively with a hint of color. Just like me. Thank you, Airu. #tattoo #cancersurvivor

I sent her pictures of what I wanted and she designed from those. I absolutely LOVE the way she does flowers. I feel she gave me wonderful informed consent about her process and fine line tattoos.

Her studio is clean and comfortable, exactly what you want when getting a tattoo. Thank you, Airu!

Jo responded quickly to my inquiry, which I appreciated, and he was very understanding and accommodating when I needed to reschedule my appointment. When I arrived, I had to check in with Jo since there wasn't a visible sign, as the studio is a private space located through a back entrance. Once inside, though, the environment was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, which immediately put me at ease. Jo was very attentive and took the time to make sure the size and placement of the tattoo were exactly how I wanted them. During the session, we had a great conversation that made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. Overall, I had a great experience and would highly recommend Jo. You can truly tell he's passionate about his work, and it shows in both his professionalism and the quality of the tattoo.
