Great experience for my first tattoo, highly recommend Lions Den!…read more Walked in on a Sunday when they first opened at 12, was checked in and waited in the shared lobby area. Cool spot where the owner Mike also features his other business the Good Company Golf Club (will have to check out their sim another time). About 15 minutes later I was led back by my artist Zhu who was patient with the tweaks I wanted to make and communicated clearly the process. After 45 minutes my small piece was done and she also explained the after care instructions thoroughly. Cash only for their tattoo services but they have an atm in the waiting area for convenience.

I had the most awesome experience with Peralta! From the very first consultation he was super…read morefriendly and patient, he really took his time explaining everything to me as he mapped the layout for my sleeve and never once made our sessions feel rushed. I loved our collaboration of ideas, but truly, all credit to him for designing and bringing the sleeve of my dreams to life. It's even more amazing than I could have imagined - his attention to detail and care put into every line and dot is so impressive. The chill vibes in the shop definitely helped me relax and feel comfy during the several multiple hour long sessions too. Most definitely looking forward to my next tattoo at Lions Den!

Isaac is an incredible piercer and person! A totally rad dude who puts me at comfort better than…read moreany other piercer I've had. I did not get my first piercing until after I was 30 years old. Since, (in great part because of Isaac) I have had over twenty and I still plan on a few more! Thank you very much Isaac and Sideshow! Also. Always a cool vibe and great people in the shop!

Jedi did mine and it was my first tattoo. He did a great job and I love it and still in love with…read moreit. Healed really well with his instructions and he also gave me his card if I have any questions or concerns. Matthew did my sister's and it was also her first tattoo. She's very happy and loves hers as well and he did a fantastic job! When I was getting my tattoo, you can feel the community vibes if that makes sense. People would come in and everyone in the shop knew who they were and they were making plans for a community block party for the 4th. Seeing and hearing that made me so happy cause not only are they talented but they are down-to-earth and wants the best for everyone who visits them.

It's an amazing tattoo, it's even better than what I imagined. Little details I never would have thought of. Also, the vibe in the shop was so chilled and comfortable. I've been to some shops that feel somewhat intimidating. Cynthia at the front was so friendly, even introduced me to the neighbourhood cat, Turbo, who is an absolute chonk. I highly recommend the place, the people are top notch, and the work is even better.

I'm disappointed more and more every day with my tattoo by Mike from bearcat tattoo. I showed up to…read morethis shop with an exact idea in mind and my artist was difficult to work with. He shot down my design and placement idea and kept suggesting different things that were not aligned with my vision. I was unfortunately persuaded by Mike and I'm so disappointed with the end result. Should have stuck to my gut. Now I'm stuck with this piece forever because this guy essentially pushed me into a direction I didn't want want to go. 0/10 would not recommend to anyone. Also, this guy charges you from the second you walk in the shop - I provided the entire tattoo inspo and design and he went with what he thought was cool and pushed me. Unfortunately I trusted him.

I understand that everybodies anatomy is different and it could cause a slight tilt on the piercing but it's been weeks since I got the piercing and looking at it now with no more swelling or redness it is almost ridiculous how off the piercing is. It's very obvious and disappointing how crooked it is. I even went home to my home piercer and even he left a comment saying that it was done very poorly. Loved the service and friendliness but unfortunately Im going to take out the piecing let it heal and then get it redone somewhere else. I want to prefaced that I really hate leaving a bad review and I tried to convince myself that it was fine but honestly just the comments I get from my friends and even another piercer about how it looks just kind of made me feel like I needed to share my honest experience.

Super quick, let's you know what's happening and is obviously experienced. The shop is clean and well maintained and not intimidating at all. The walls are covered in flash to choose from, both historical American traditional and original handpainted flash by the artists. The place is basically a museum, its covered in history and amazing photos of Tahiti Felix himself. I recommend this place to everyone who asks about my tattoos.
