    Today I got my first real tattoo with Nina and expressed how nervous I was. She was so sweet and patient with all my questions and thorough with explaining the process. I love my tattoo she did for me and it was nowhere near what I thought the pain level would be. Nina talked to me throughout making sure I was comfortable and not in pain. I absolutely loved getting my work done with her and would recommend her in a heart beat. She even touched up an old small finger tattoo I had. Also when I got the finger tattoo it was super painful but when Nina did it, it was nowhere near the pain level that I originally had getting it done the first time.

    Tried to get most of it. But pictures can't do it justice. So happy with it!

    Nina went above and beyond, I originally just booked with her to do a little birthday scorpion for myself but after examining the area she noticed my previous rooster above and offered if I'd like for her to touch it up. But that doesn't do it justice. She completely transformed it and made all come together as one tattoo, gave me good after home care instructions. It was so nice because she understood the pigment changes and with being on the more tan side she understood my concerns and in general how the ink can heal. I look forward to coming back and working with her on many more projects. That aside, the shop is so clean and very open and have a calm feel when you enter. I haven't removed the bandage just yet. But wanted to still show a picture.

    Super responsive and helpful, made me comfortable for my first tattoo and was just an awesome experience. Highly recommend! Definitely coming back, she truly loves to make art into reality and had respect to what I wanted but also gave me guidance.

    Nina is AMAZING! Worth the 60 miles to get tattooed by her again. She got the concept and changes down on the fly and and knew what I wanted exactly. Love her definitely the only person I'd let ink me.

    I reached out to NinaLoweCrow tattoo to get a tattoo fixed. I asked her to get it done before certain date and she agreed. I provided the design and agreed with her about the price, $100 deposit, $300 tattoo. She never mentioned how many sessions it will take and I paid everything upfront. The first session I got a moon design (photo) and we needed to schedule a second session. For the second session I had an emergency and needed to reschedule. She gave a new date but I couldn't make it due to work obligations. She was not flexible about date and times and could not accommodate me before the date we had agreed initially. I don't recommend her services and she charged me for a tattoo that wasn't completed. She is not an experienced tattoo artist at all - see photo, the moon is her piece. She mentioned there was a policy but did not want to return the money. She offered the deposit back but she kept the rest of the money for a unfinished tattoo. Never heard from her about a refund. She kept my $400.

    5 out of 5 , wish I could give more ! Great service, Nina is amazing, and so is her boss . I was extremely lucky to get my first tattoo from here from the moment you walk in they treat you like a friend not a customer. Throughout the session she makes sure you're doing ok , she puts your comfort above getting the job done fast. I loved my experience here , definitely will recommend!

    Fenrir Tattoo by Nina

    I had the pleasure of being tattooed on my left arm by Nina -- after a very quick, efficient, and simple process of making an appointment. Cut to a week later, what an unexpected surprise my visit to Nina's tattoo parlor was. I'd like to mention the cleanliness of the shop -- this isn't always the case when visiting tattoo parlors. It was in an immaculate setting, and I am always glad to walk into a shop that looks as clean and great as Nina's. During the tattooing, this kind former nurse truly took care of me. She checked to make sure if I was doing all right, ensured that I didn't catch any sort of infection, and even reduced some of the swelling that occurred in the process. The process took about five hours or so, and it was full of line-work and complicated curves that Nina had no problem just plowing right through. A steady hand by Nina and wonderful topics of conversation by the both of us went on that evening. It has been a full month now since I received my tattoo from Nina, & I'd like to add that it's one of my best. I proudly display my Fenrir tattoo on my arm and if I ever run into Nina again, I'd implore her to tattoo me again. Please visit her shop and see for yourself! You will walk away with one of the greatest tattoos on your body.

    Had some great touch up / add on work done last week. My biggest pet peeve is when tattoo artists is that they have terrible customer service skills and make the whole ordeal feel impersonal. Will be coming back for more work

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and immediately made to feel at ease. The shop itself is very clean and welcoming. The jewelry is beautifully displayed. I just wish I remembered the name of the woman who helped us because she made such an impression. She walked us through all the options at different price points in a way that felt completely neutral and respectful. There was no subtle steering toward something more expensive. It genuinely felt like whatever we chose was the right choice. Ivy, my piercer, was incredibly thorough and precise. I really want to stress how pleasant and painless this piercing was. I am talking pain level 0 out of 10. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP. She is extremely clean in her process and talked me through every step so I always knew what was happening. The room itself felt like a doctor's office in terms of cleanliness and professionalism. I wanted to write this because there aren't many reviews here about septum piercings specifically. When I was searching for where I wanted to go, Oak and Poppy kept coming up but I didn't see many septum reviews. Ivy is a true professional in this work. It's clear she knows exactly what she's doing. The staff cares about the customer's experience and it shows every step of the way. If you're looking for a septum piercing and want an experience that feels comfortable, this is the place to go! Thank you Ivy! Thank you Oak and Poppy!

My husband and I got matching tattoos here and for the tattoo itself it's 3 stars. Today, it has been 3 days since we got the tattoo and although the tattoo itself is small, has fine lines, and is on the wrist, it appears as if it has a smear/smudge on one of the corners on both tattoos. This isn't my first tattoo, and my husband and I have been following the after care and have been careful. It's on the healing stage, but you can tell that the corner line differs and there is a smudged area on both tattoos. For both these it was $240 total and done by Chris. I will update this review once the tattoos heal completely.

I finally went ahead and booked a virtual consultation (being in San Diego). From the very beginning of the process, submitting the request to book, through the consultation itself, and coming in to get the tattoo, I had the most amazing experience. I felt comfortable that I was in the hands of the best team at this shop. Rob was super responsive with scheduling and questions. June created a beautiful design based on my references and feedback and added little touches that made it even better. When I showed up to my appointment, I was a little anxious, but it was such a cozy, beautiful studio and I felt welcomed and at ease by Rob and June. June took such great care to cover up the scars I wanted covered and make it look beautiful and flow well with the natural curves of my leg, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. After she finished her work, she brought out the professional camera to get the best pictures possible and promptly sent them to me the same night. You can tell she takes pride in her work (as she should!) I will absolutely be back for more tattoos in the future, and maybe add more to my leg sleeve. It was definitely worth the drive from San Diego to work with the right artist who made my vision come true!

I highly highly recommend if you just want a tattoo or specialty want a unique piece of art. This is your place! Also, the atmosphere is the most unique parlor I have ever been to. Amazing on all counts!

After I sent over my deposit, I met with her virtually to go over ideas for my design, and she worked up the art before my appointment. She even moved the appointment up an hour to give us more time to finalize the design and placement. As for the work itself, it's amazing. Iryna is clearly a very talented artist, and it shows in her work. She was also very attentive to making me feel comfortable throughout the 6+ hour appointment, which was really great. The shop itself was very clean, and my interactions with the staff and setting up the appointment were professional, smooth, and easy. I mostly corresponded through the shop's email, and they were very accommodating with scheduling and answering my questions. They also took my photos and general intentions for Iryna to be able to access during our appointments. I really appreciate them scheduling the virtual consultation before I came in-person. They also gave me a very reasonable estimate for the work! All in all, it was a super pleasant experience. My final note is only to do with payment. Mantle offers several methods to pay your balance, like venmo, zelle, and they have a credit card reader. Through no fault of the shop, Zelle blocked my transfer attempt, so a piece of advice to clients is to have backup payment methods available to save time. The credit card option was a nice backup, but the credit card terminal does charge a service fee.

Showed him a few AI examples and he had me send him one that he/we thought looked cool. I didn't really put a ton of thought into it just figured "sure. Do your thing with it." I probably should've noticed the AI flaw in the stencil, but, as my regular artist pointed out, he definitely should have noticed, especially since he had the original photo. A little miscommunication but oh well. On top of that it's really really light so I'm going to have to have my normal artist fix it and touch it up. I wasn't even going to leave a review because it's partly my fault, and I don't really care that much, but like my normal artist pointed out, he's supposed to notice these kind of things. Then I realized the only reason I don't really care is because it's somewhere not normally visible. If it was on my arm I would be horrified. Other than that, they were cool, the booking process was easy, and reasonably priced. Also the shop was super clean which is important to me so 3-stars

I was actually referred to THS by multiple people so I looked into them and found Endry. His work really impressed me and my boyfriend who was also a tattoo artist back in the day. So I booked an appt to have a very simple roman numeral tattoo done under my collarbone. The booking process was actually very easy and the shop worked with me. There's a $200 minimum and there's a $100 deposit that you Venmo before the appointment is made. I honestly found the booking process super smooth and easy. If you can find it, there's metered parking right in front of the shop which is super convenient. I honestly love the vibe of this place. Endry was so kind and welcoming and made my first tattoo the best experience it could've been (also want to note I have a needle phobia so this is a legit compliment). I have since seen Endry multiple times for more extensive work. Endry is truly an incredible artist who really puts care and consideration into each piece. You can tell he really cares about his craft and I have so much respect for that. Working with him has been a pleasure and I look forward to my next session with him. I actually recently got my forearm done with a beautiful fine line floral wrap and I am still in awe at the photorealistic detail in the flowers. I found my artist and my place and I would 100% recommend going here whether it's your first or you're looking to continue on in your tattoo journey.
