    Mother Daughter bond!

    Danny is super awesome! Thanks for making a great memory for my Daughter and I Simple tattoo with such great meaning and a life time of memories

    It had been 2 years since getting my last tattoo and after a weird 2nd encounter with the previous artist, I didn't know who to turn to to finish out what I was looking for. Then I found Taylor! She is everything I was looking for in an artist: fun, professional, easy going, non judgmental. She charges really good prices and is gentle yet quick. She does amazing work and at this point, almost everything I have on my body is from her! She definitely has a client for life with me! I talk her up to everyone I know because she's just that amazing! If you've never seen her before, you definitely should pay her a visit

    I got this tattoo five years ago at Karma. It has held up awesomely throughout the years. My artist was professional and personable.

    Amazing job from Henry (Stilo)

    Amazing job! From Henry (Stilo). I really love my Unalome Lotus. Thank you for your job make my tattoo it's beautiful.

    Came to Karma to get a butterfly tattoo in memory of my son, Erick. Staff was friendly and Jesse nailed it! He did an amazing job and was just as amazing of a person. It was exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend them.

    Best tattoo experience AND finished product I could imagine! I have been tattooed in 3 other shops over the past several years, and Karma Tattoo Studio exemplifies exactly what tattooing SHOULD be all about everywhere-- Good morals and fabulous tattoos. You shouldn't have to decide between a great experience OR a great tattoo. Going to Karma means you'll get both! I am brand new to the Phoenix area from Los Angeles. Out at a work event, I started chatting with someone about his gorgeous new half sleeve, and he highly recommended this shop. I checked out the portfolios online, decided Asek was my guy, and made an appointment... The minute you walk in the door, you'll notice that the place is stunning (clean, new, and well-decorated). There are big-screens up front where you can chat with the artist and pull up inspiration/examples from the internet to show them your tattoo ideas. To make it that much better, EVERYONE who works there is beyond friendly and accommodating. Even though I was nervous (hadn't been tattooed in a couple of years, and was in a shop I'd never been to before), they made me feel completely at ease. I was there to see Asek, but had the chance to check out the other artists' portfolios and chat with most of them since I was there right at opening. Each one is crazy talented and so incredibly nice. Every artist obviously has their own style, but I was impressed with all of the portfolios and their personalities too. I have now been tattooed twice by Asek in a matter of just a week-- I was hooked after my first appointment, with no end in sight! I will certainly be a regular at Karma-- for both the incredible experience during the session and amazing art I leave with.

    Dedication tattoo to my two daughters

    I don't even know where to start !! I've wanted tattoos for a very long time but something always came up , doctor bills , family, kids .. just every day life.. I have to Beautiful daughters that are my life as I'm a single father ( their mother passed away 6 years ago) I've always wanted a pair of praying hands on my back .. just to show how grateful I am to god for my daughters.. so in July of 2020 I was finally able to get the tattoo which is shown in the picture... remember this tattoo holds a lot of meaningful feelings for me.. anyways I go to get the tattoo.. I meet my Artist he seems to be a very nice person.. we go back to get started he puts the stencil on my back and I say hey it's supposed to say forever grateful across the top .. the Artist says oh!!!! My bad (I'll just hand write it is that ok?) so I say sure ... I figure he knows how to spell ... so we get all done I take a Quick glance in the mirror .. I go home and get a text from the artist saying sorry and that he misspelled grateful... it kind of pissed me off but hey .. we all make mistakes right.. I tell him it's ok and that we will figure something out.. I call him back a couple days later and say hey I always wanted a full sleeve.. the artist says ok ( I'm figuring that this guy is going to do everything he can to make up for fucking up my back .... he ask for pictures of what I wanted so I send them to him and I also tell him I wanted black and gray realism.. the artist tells me he will send me drawings of what he had come up with.... so several weeks go bye and I get nothing from him I send several text asking about my appointment and that I can't wait to see what he had come up with.. I get no response... so the day of my appointment I go in to get started and he shows me the stencil ... not the actual artwork but a stencil.. so I'm thinking to my self what the hell ????.. so we talk about placement and I'm still kind of like what the hell ... but I'm figuring this guy is the Artist he must know what he's doing... he starts tattooing and the whole time I'm thinking he's going to make up for my back .. this tattoo is going to look awesome.... WELL!!!! It's anything but awesome... I asked for black and gray realism and this is definitely not that... not only that but I was charged $800 for this $800!!!!!! I'll never go back and I suggest that you say as far away from this place as you can .. this place is a shit hole they don't give a fuck about you or what you want... my sleeve was going to take supposedly three days to complete at $800 dollars a day... now I have had to find someone else to finish and fix what was started and that is going to cost me $2,400 ... I've called Karma tattoo and asked to speak to Danny the owner and got nowhere... I went in to speak to him and they say he just left ....... AGAIN STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE... there are to many other Reputable tattoo shops you can go to ... I'm going to post this review to as many social media sites that I can and to warn as many people as I can !!!!! Stay away

    Eric was my tattoo artist. He is truly an artist!! I had a mandalorian tattoo I wanted covered up. He did an amazingly awesome job. You cannot even see the previous tattoo. It has healed very nicely. I will sooo be going back, not only to Karma Tattoo but to Eric!

    Big shoutout to ANGEL for his amazing line work. He is very professional and cares about the integrity of your tattoo. I've only had my tattoo 3 days and I can't count how many compliments I've gotten on how clean his work is. I'm already sending people your way, Angel! Keep doing what you do, because you rock!

    Sleeve progress.

    Ask the Community - Karma Tattoo Studio

    Do you guys do nipple piercings? if so how much would that cost? and how much experience do you guys have doing them?

    Sorry, unfortunately we don't pierce anymore. I recommend going to a piercing studio like HTC, or Halo piercing. They'll have the most experience, & jewelry to choose from.

    Do you accept walk ins? Also do you use saniderm?

    Hello, yes we accept walk-ins, but do not use Saniderm. We're honestly not big fans of Saniderm.

    Would you tattoo someone who is going to be 16 with parental consent?

    Hello Kimberly, it would depend on what you wanted to get, & where you are wanting to place it. Please call us at 623-242-9924 so we can go over all the details, thank you

    Do you have any Friday the 13th specials going on?

    Sorry Julitza, we don't have any specials for Friday the 13th.

    What is the age to get a nose peircing I'm wondering if I'm old enough or would I be able to get one with parental consent?

    Unfortunately, we don't have a piercer at the moment. We recommend HTC piercing on 28th drive, & Cactus.

    Hello, do you have a minimum price for tattoos?

    Hi Yasmin, we have a $60 shop minimum.

    How much is it to get a piercing here?

    Hi Luisa! Unfortunately we don't have a piercer at the moment.

    For my first tattoo, I spent quite a bit of time searching Yelp, Google, and asking friends what…read moretheir recommendations were. I knew that I wanted a fine line tattoo of an owl holding an orange, and I wanted the artist to take my thoughts and bring their own creativity and artistry to it. I eventually found Brianna at 27 through Instagram, who made the process easy by using your consultation to learn more about me, how I dress to match my style, and what I wanted from the tattoo. I could not have been more impressed when I came back for the first session and saw that the image I had provided made by chatgpt had been transformed into something that I will cherish forever! Brianna was also almost exact on her quote for the amount of hours it would take and price. The studio itself is very clean and many individual rooms, so it felt private and comfortable. I was a bit nervous because I have vasovagal reactions to needles, but Brianna was prepared made sure I was good when we started both sessions. Brianna went over the top to make sure I had some tattoo balm to take home after the first session since I only had products that would have damaged the tattoo. I would highly recommend Brianna to anyone looking for a fine line tattoo from an artist who can bring her own vision to the image.

If you are looking for a beautiful pet portrait, she will not disappoint! I have several tattoos and this by far was my best and favorite experience!!

He also has excellent knowledge on what is even possible based on your ear anatom. Old West has a little room with a professional medical table/seat for piercings. I wanted a certain orbital but he said not only is my ear not as pronounced there, it's a very complex healing process. Luckily I had already researched Old West & liked another orbital picture they posted to Yelp so that one was my second choice & Torin was all over it! He measured & placed it PERFECTLY. Plus I got a flat piercing & he placed that perfectly as well in comparison to my other piercings. His commitment to health & safety is unmatched & both piercing are healing so well with the saline solution I bought from Old West. I came back exactly a month to get the shorter post needed for my flat and it was just such a pleasure to show Torin how great they both look! Each time I was in there were multiple people getting tats and the piercings are like back-to-back so this is definitely a go-to place for both. Thank you Torin & Old West!

    I recently had the absolute privilege of working with Kayla, better known as Barbie, at Fifth…read moreFinger Studio, and let me tell you, she didn't just give me a tattoo; she created a legacy on my arm. I came to her with an idea: a floral sleeve that represented each of my grandmothers through their favorite flowers. It was personal, sentimental, and carried a ton of emotional weight. Barbie not only listened, she understood. She took my words and turned them into something living and powerful. From the start, her professionalism and creative intuition were on another level. The design process was collaborative, thoughtful, and detailed, every petal, stem, and shadow had purpose. Her ability to balance vibrant realism with soft, organic flow is unreal. The way the flowers wrap naturally around my arm feels intentional and fluid, not forced. During the sessions, her energy kept the vibe positive and focused. She's meticulous with her linework, patient with color blending, and has a true artist's eye for balance and placement. The end result is more than just ink, it's a tribute, a story, and a piece of my family history etched in art. Barbie's work speaks for itself, but what really sets her apart is how much she cares. She didn't just create a tattoo; she created meaning. If you're looking for an artist who can translate emotion into visual perfection, stop looking. Bottom line: Kayla is the real deal, a true artist with heart, skill, and vision. Fifth Finger Studio should be proud to have her.
