Let me tell you, Rita is the real deal! If you're looking for a great, knowledgeable piercer who actually gives a darn, Rita is your gal. I came here on 2 occasions (Septum and Nose) and sent my sister here (cluster of things). We both have absolutely no complaints at all! read more

This shop is by my house, I didn't have an appointment, they accept walk ins and I walked right in, the place is open they have a beautiful mural on the right wall, they have a couch while you wait, Lenny is walked up and I told him I wanted a tattoo and he did it right on the spot. I was super comfortable, good music was playing. I had an awesome experience, I will definitely going back! read more

Our visit to James is NEVER long enough. The shop is eclectic, clean, and all the staff members are friendly. The conversation is always easy flowing and comical. When permanently leaving a mark on your body, you want to ensure ONLY the best is doing the job. His steady hand precisely makes every mark perfect! This will be my daughter's 2nd tattoo at Lost Lake, and we are already planning another one. His easy communication, scheduling and assistance with the design ideas makes the entire process perfect from start to finish. read more

The best tattoo artist and shop owner, James, designed my daughter and I matching tattoos. We got a symbolic tattoo of a Columbine flower which is a hearty flower that can withstand hardship. James understood how special it was for us to get the tattoos on the 6 month-a-versary of my daughter being hit by a car. She is a survivor! He took great care in drawing us the flower just perfectly and then he took his time placing it and tattooing it with a super fine needle. He made such precise lines and stunning shading, we just love it! His shop is decorated so cool with so much to look at with inspiration in every detail. He really loves his craft and runs a quality, professional shop! Totally recommend Lost Lake Tattoo. read more

Len is a supreme being. Full stop. He made a tattoo we had been thinking about for years come to life. It was inspired by lines from a Christopher Poindexter poem. It was not an easy task, but Len came through. The whole shop is amazing. You can get inked by literally anyone there - everyone works to the same caliber. But Len is my go to from now on. He doesn't know it yet but he's filling both of my arms also don't come here if you pride yourself on being an asshat, it won't be a comfortable experience my wife and i love this shop and can't wait to continue our business with them. read more

The staff was very friendly. I was a bit nervous because it was my first piercing but they were very reassuring. The piercing itself didn't hurt and it was a quick and easy process! I also got a little bag with a spray that would be used to clean my piercing. The only downside was that I made an appointment and I had to wait a good 40 minutes after my appointment to get my piercing done. read more

I went to Lost Lake a week after I went to another tattoo shop with my friends to get a septum piercing. Long story short, we all ended up getting pierced and I got a forward helix, the other piercer put in a surgical steel stud that was too small and it was irritated. I came here to consult with Rita and she was so kind and explained everything to me, including that the metal and size that I had in was not right. She walked me through what to do to take care of the piercing and jewelry I chose! She changed what I had out and put in high quality jewelry. I HIGHLY recommend this shop for customer service, piercings and their jewelry selection. For as long as I have my forward helix and need to get/change jewelry, I will be coming here! read more

Terrible experience for myself, and cancelled for my husband also. Total rip off for a nose piercing. They over charge for the jewelry and service. The jewelry is ridiculously marked up, with little options of different styles. They Make you purchase a saline spray through them. And on top of all this, you have to make an appointment for a piercing?! Since when? I've had multiple piercings and it's always a walk in! If you can't make your forced appointment, they only give you a 15 min grace period. Is this a dr office??? By the end of my piercing, I paid the same as buying a small tattoo. That's the scam. They must pay high rent for the place, to require a 25$ deposit for a piercing, and made me cancel because I would be 20 min late, and then charged my card 25$ for that!!! Worst experience in a tattoo shop for a piercing, my husband went someone where else and I won't ever be returning there and will tell everyone not to go. Oh and to top all that off, they close on a Friday night at 8 pm. What tattoo shop closes on a weekend at 8? read more

This is my second review (original at their previous location - re-posted below) and this remains a…read morefive star review only because I'm limited to five stars. I have been thinking about getting a tattoo for more years than I'd like to admit. It's a huge commitment and one that should be well thought out. Initially, I contacted Tattooed Theory through their web site. I submitted my information electronically and described what I was looking to get tattooed. Since my friend has a few tattoos by Javi and had explained the procedure, I knew it would take quite a while. Some time later, I received a message to meet up and discuss what I wanted to do. At my appointment, I spoke with Javi and further discussed what I wanted to get done. At that time, I left a deposit and received a date for my tattoo. My excitement and anticipation was building and finally, I received the art prior to my appointment. Javi captured and exceeded my expectation of the concept....I was thrilled. I showed up for my appointment and since he had moved the business, I headed to the new location. Although the other location was easy to get to, the new spot is just as easy to find and near the expressway. It has a sleek and modern design with very cool decor. As I described in the previous review, the business continues to be extremely clean, tidy and very well organized. When I sat down in the tattoo area, I watched Javi take his time setting up from the very beginning. Lining all areas for cleanliness. Opening a ton of packages, needles etc. I can describe it as methodical and very detailed. I could go on and on with everything he did in preparation for the tattoo. There was no rush, which is a good thing. During the procedure, we took periodic breaks which were very much welcomed. As a side note, during this visit, I met the other artist, Chris. Just like Javi, he was personable and his work, also beautiful. In the end, my tattoo was absolutely amazing, dark and beautifully detailed. It was a wonderful experience! I cannot stress enough how professional and serious the artists are at Tattooed Theory. This is pure art and not the cookie cutter tattoo you often see. All in all, as I said in my previous review, go to his site, follow him on Instagram and if their work speaks to you, this is the place to go to. You will wait a long time and it won't be cheap. They are sought by many customers and have a long wait list. Then again, why would you gamble or try to cut corners with something that will be on your skin for the rest of your life. It's a huge decision to get a tattoo. Think it through and go to a professional location. You want it to be a positive experience on every level. You will not regret making Tattooed Theory your choice. For my next tattoo, hands down, Tattooed Theory will be my choice! Below is my original experience and first review of Tattooed Theory at its previous location. As a disclaimer, I didn't get a tattoo yet, but definitely want to write about my initial store experience. I've been wanting a tattoo for a while but it can be very challenging to find a tattoo artist. We have plenty of artists in South Florida, but choosing one can be daunting. While talking to quite a few friends that already have ink, there was one friend and tattoo that really stood out to me. The piece she had was pure art and words cannot describe how amazing it was. She told me Javi had done her tattoo and she went on and on about him, his shop and portfolio. She too had a recommendation from her friend that has a few pieces. Well, I have since submitted my request via his web site but finally decided to go by the shop to ensure I've made the right decision. The visit confirmed a resounding yes. You know the art is amazing, no doubt about that. Going by his shop and meeting Javi, solidified that yes, this is the place for me! One thing I've experienced with some tattoo artists is, as a female, they kind of "poo poo" your visit, as if you are not serious. In all fairness, maybe they're like that because it is their experience. Well, Javi made me feel welcomed and not judged at all. Keep in mind, he has a waiting list of over a year yet, I was made to feel important. My friend was right on all counts. The store was easy to get to, right off the 826. Plenty of parking and the inside of the store was extremely tidy. I look forward to returning in the future!

This is going to be a long review... I have been searching EVERYWHERE for the perfect place to get a tattoo that was both dedicated to my mother (still alive) and Grandmother who passed away a few years ago. I can say that I am absolutely ELATED to have walked into this place. at first glance you won't think to walk in BUT PLEASE DOOOO it is not only BEAUTIFUL inside but the care and customer service is out of this world. as soon as you walk in you are created with the warmest welcome and with the utmost patience BECAUSE BOYYYYY DID I ASK A LOT OF QUESTIONS. When I was ready to take the plunge I was connected to James who also has a LOAD of patience and truly values his customers satisfaction. We readjusted the placement of my tattoo 3 times! and he assured me that he would continue to readjust until I felt comfortable. then once on the tattoo mat he began the masterpiece. He was very gentle and made sure that my Vision became a reality. We had great conversations and shared A LOT of laughs. James is going to be my forever tattoo artist, you're stuck with me... LOL. I 100% recommend. read more

I went to The Lost Lake, JADEN my piercer was really nice and professional. She examined me to see if the piercing was closed; it wasn't. So she helped me select my replacement jewelry and installed it for me; I only felt a pinch -- a pinch! The shop is exceptionally clean and spotless, and the vibe is chill!

Mannnnn... James is amazing! The most gentle, patient and kind tattoo artist. He sure knows how to make his customers feel welcomed. It was my first time getting a tattoo and it didn't really hurt as I thought it would. His skills are amazing. I came for an appointment and he was able to tattoo me and my friends that came to accompany me. Awesome job James! Chris was also amazing at making the process smooth. Thanks so much for everything guys. Definitely coming back here when I'm back in Miami. (Originally from NYC) read more

I had a botched tattoo at another tattoo place, James was highly recommended by a friend and now I know why. I couldn't be more grateful and thankful for Mr. James for fixing my tattoo. Very professional, super talented. He made a very unsatisfactory experience an amazing one. Place is clean, made me feel super comfortable. Highly recommended, the artistry and experience was great and the pricing was the icing on the cake! can't wait for my next tattoo!! A million thanks James! read more

Shout out to James for making my first tattoo experience awesome, I went in to get my recent passing cat's paw print tattooed on me and a cat with a sheet over its head since I love Halloween. James made me laugh the entire time and really got my mind off the pain. He walked me through how to care for it after and really made my first tattoo way less stressful. James really calmed my nerves and I will definitely go back to get more just just him. THANK YOU SO MUCH JAMES! read more

The environment was so welcoming from the moment you walked in! It felt so clean and so nice. The staff is all very knowledgeable and Rita is absolutely amazing when it came to getting my nose pierced! She also helped me with fixing my belly piercing and knowledge on how to help it heal better! She was so sweet and made getting a piercing feel so simple and was gentle and took her time! I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for quality work and friendliness! read more

I was referred here by a good friend. I am so glad I took the recommendation. I brought my daughter to get her first ear piercing she was nervous but the staff was super friendly and made sure she was at ease and explained everything with such great detail and patience. Once here I decided I wanted to be spontaneous and get a tattoo. They were super accommodating and the artist was amazing. Overall I was super pleased with my experience and WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

I went there to get piercings for the first time ever and I was excited and nervous. There are two piercers there Kristy and Rita. My piercings were done by Kristy and she did an amazing job. She was super nice and made me feel comfortable. She explained everything I needed to do to take care of my piercings. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a legit tattoo or piercing parlor. Everything was clean and professional and the place looks super cute. read more

Super friendly staff, I felt very welcomed. They are following all CDC guidelines which made me feel very safe. Jimmy the shop owner took his time to draw up my tattoo design and I was very impressed with it. Within 30 min of arrival I was on the table. After a 2 hour session I am extremely Happy with my new art work. Very professional and I will definitely be coming here again. I recommend 100%!!! read more

Some of the negative reviews really worried me, but James didn't fail to impress me. he made sure i loved what i was putting on my body before he got to tattooing even if it meant playing around with the sketches and adjusting the placement a couple times. not to mention the pricing was more than reasonable, but remember you're also paying for quality. Will be coming back soon! read more

Everyone I've interacted with have been so amazing and sweet. I'm absolutely in love with Rita, she was very sweet and made my piercing a quick and painless experience [besides the obvious pain]. I got a tattoo from Kaylee who is really awesome too, they freehanded and they are just amazing artist. And James was more than helpful with me getting an appt. 10/10! read more

After being declined by another tattoo & piercing shop for the "wrong" anatomy, I was able to get my tongue pierced here! They did it in an amazing way that left me satisfied and my tongue correctly pierced. I couldn't describe how happy I am with my experience at Lost Lake Tattoo. I will be visiting again for my other body modifications in the near future :)! read more

After seeing the quality of his work on my boyfriends last 4 tattoos I was convinced and ready to sit in his chair myself. The cleanliness of the shop is the first thing I noticed. Both the common areas and the restroom (which is not always the case). Next would be how well lit the establishment is. Most tattoo shops have dark/dingy vibes that aren't always comfortable or comforting, especially new clients. Each of the artists stations were neat and organized. The atmosphere was also very welcoming. We were greeted by everyone when we walked in the door and the TV's and music weren't so loud and overbearing as I have witnessed at other shops in the past. In the professionalism department, Alejandro takes the cake. He was ready and prepared to get started in a short period of time. I did not have to wait for him to finish drawing or editing my design only sizing and he was ready to begin. The quality of his work is impeccable and as of right now I would not go anywhere else to be tattooed (I lived an hour 1/2 away). The shop is located in a busy shopping plaza with minimum parking. However, the convenience of having the shops next door is nice.

I returned to The Shop with an image that I found online. After Nelson and I talked and agreed on the size and placement of the new Tattoo. Nelson started and worked his magic. I was speechless by the end result, Nelson did a GREAT job covering up the previous Tattoos by altering and modifying the original image I chose. The previous Tattoos that got covered up cannot be seen. Nelson gave me a whole new Upper Left Arm. Again, Nelson is very good at what he does and is very Professional, and pays GREAT attention to Cleanliness, Safety, Detail, and Communicates as he is working on your Tattoo. My 2nd visit was just as good as the 1st visit. I will be going back and having Nelson work on some more Tattoos that I want to get. I already referred a lot of people to go to The Shop Tattoo Studio. I HIGHLY recommend anyone who is looking to get a good Tattoo experience to go and make an appointment at The Shop.

My appointment was not even 24 hours ago and I am decently happy with my tattoo, but I will say after looking at it closely it doesn't match the photo sadly. We went for the concept of the treble clef and bass clef to form a heart without the stippling effect shown in the reference photo, so that's not the issue. But if you review both images you can see that Leo didn't follow the lines accurately. I also don't think that price of $120 not including tip is fair. As I was grabbing my bag and phone and whatnot to leave, he kindly offered a free lotion after the session and once I said "yeah sure" he proceeded to say "well only if you leave a review first" then watched me leave a five star review (that I now deleted) that I felt pressured to do in the moment since he was literally watching as I typed. Otherwise, he's very nice and I truly hate writing any negative feedback BUT I need to let people know since other people might've also felt pressured to leave reviews as a result of Leo's tactic...

The original design of my son's tattoo was...let's just say... lacking for lack of a better word or to too harsh of a word. Bam Bam totally brought the tattoo to life with dimension and great color choice and his line work was great! He also doesn't have a heavy hand. Which is an added bonus. The facilities and location is in West Kendall and has been open for about 4 years. The owner, Tatu Baby was on a popular tattoo show called Ink Masters (season 2) and has really done a great job with her shop. It's beautiful and clean. She's an incredible artist and I saw some of her art work around the shop. I also saw her finish a beautiful back piece today. so far at least 2 tattoo artists from this shop are fantastic artists. Bam Bam was very professional and meticulously clean with his station, needles and ink. And used all great products. Nothing cheap about the quality of the tools and ink that's used. In terms of artistry, experience and professionalism, Bam Bam gets 5 stars... but because this is a review more of the shop it gets 4 until I see the art work from more than just 2 artists. There's no doubt I will be visiting again! Once I do I'll make sure thip update.

Salvation Beauty Ink is located on the third floor of a big white building in Pembroke Pines. Upon entering, the business has a calm atmosphere with an all-female staff who are pleasant and accommodating to the needs of their clients. My daughter got her tattoo done by Gabi, who was very nice and fluent in Spanish. She was professional throughout the entire tattoo process, prioritizing consultation, safety, preparation, stencil application, skillful lining & shading, proper cleaning, and detailed aftercare instructions. While waiting, I watched TV and helped myself to a cup of coffee and light snacks. Observing my daughter's experience completely changed my perception of tattoo parlors. Would I get one? I mean, I've thought about it, but I don't think I'd have the patience to sit still for hours for a permanent design. If you're looking for quality tattoos, then you should consider Salvation Beauty Ink. They also offer a range of beauty services, including permanent makeup, lashes & brows, body piercings, and facials.

Came in for a female symbol on my hand, the "artist" said she diddnt want to do it and suggested i do this tattoo instead, i said ok. I was in that chair for about an hour, with her SCRATCHING into me. So much of the tattoo has come off, the rest is peeling off like HENNA. The one part that actually was penetrated deep enough to stay has blown out as she literally dug at me so deep it created a cut under my skin and ink leaked over. I visited several ACTUAL professional tattoo artists and they confirmed that this was completely abnormal. It is normal for finger tattoos to fade, however this was just done improperly, some parts were not penetrated deep enough and the few that were have blown out. Also it looked like scribble right after anyway, so I'm kinda glad it fell out lol. Please don't come here, these are not professionals. I posted it on Reddit and it literally went viral, i was even accused of lying about going to a professional because they couldn't believe an actual business would do this.
