He was incredibly knowledgeable, gave me great advice on the location of the piercings based on the jewelry I wanted to wear, and provided easily digestible information about the healing process/piercing care. The store was clean and Ryan kept a sterile work environment. I will absolutely go back to see him for any other piercings I get in the future!

I've been to plenty of tattoo shops, throughout my life, for piercings, and I'm telling you, the…read morefirst time I came in here for a lip piercing, they blew me away. They were so nice, and comforting. It took me almost a year to figure out what I wanted for a tattoo, finally got it, I love my neck and I can't wait to add to it, creating a sleeve in the future. My first photo is my lip piercing, and the 2nd is my tattoo from yesterday, this was my first and I was very hesitant because it's the neck, they outdid their self!!!! 100/10!!!!

I have also had the pleasure of having some artwork done for me by Justin who is such a cool guy with so much artistic skill. I love his work I would definitely be back and continue to frequent this shop. My family and I love this place! I HIGHLY recommend!

He does a great job with his design and listening to clients. 10/10 would recommend.

Ask for John Cole, hands down the best artist I've met. John did my 5th tattoo last spring when I…read morewas in Tampa, a crisp custom stingray, and I went to see him for my seventh, a custom bluebonnet, when I was back in town. John wouldn't start the drawing until he found large, detailed images which depicted the bluebonnet in various stages of bloom, so he work would be accurate. Other artists might have settled with approximating the flower, but John wanted to see the composition of petals and at what stage in bloom the flower displayed white and pink. A bit Discovery Channel esque and totally worth it. Once we had the basics done, my friend and I grabbed dinner while John finished the sketches. We did the same design but at different scales and places. Thank God she went first, so I could see her gorgeous tattoo before I got started. My tattoo took longer than I expected, and I hit my wimp out point. John was amazingly patient and professional, letting me take breaks when needed. I haven't had to stop a tattoo before and he was very kind. End result is AMAZING. Like really amazing. I'm glad I sucked it up and I'm coming back for another one next time I visit. You won't get a better tattoo or experience in Tampa and I'll cross the country to come back.

Second tattoo from this establishment that the Queen Bee has been using for years. Jeff the owner…read moreof the place is a no nonsense guy who won't BS you and doesn't take short cuts. The missus won't go anywhere else and I can see why. She won't let anyone else but Jeff work on her either. Period. There are all kinds of designs hanging on the walls and in poster boards near the windows. Plenty of design books and body piercing jewelry in showcases also. Showroom is downstairs and the studio itself is upstairs in an old, raggedy building that's probably stood over 100 years in Ybor City. I don't like this neighborhood at all, but seeing Jeff is well worth the trip so long as it's still bright out. As I stated, studio is upstairs and is quite sanitary, clean and squared away. Lots more designs and pics up there as well. Jeff definitely takes his time and does stuff the right way. You cannot be drunk, zonked or stoned and expect ink here; he won't risk his craft for an idiot. He and the staff definitely view this as art as well as business. Most of the Queen Bee's work isn't from a design book but rather original. Mine is sort of in between the two but either way, they do it all here, as well as permanent makeup. Jeff certainly knows what he is doing and could probably get away with making more than he does, but he has a loyal following so why ruin a good thing? I love seeing the little guys of life do well!

I went to this establishment today 4/30/2024 to get the $20 tattoo deal with 3 of my friends. When…read morewe first walked in, the receptionist with jet black hair, drawn on eyebrows, hispanic but she was white passing didn't greet us and just told us to fill out the forms outside. My first friend went to get her consultation with Seth, and he was very kind, making jokes with us and his work was done very well. My other friend and I were gonna get matching tattoos (very similar tattoos) and while she was consulting with Seth, the receptionist put me with another tattoo artist but she was the one consulting me, not the tattoo artist. I was showing the art that I wanted to the artist, but the receptionist took over the conversation and told me it would be $70 for the tattoo i wanted (see attached). She, the receptionist, said each star was $20 and shading was $10. The placement was supposed to be on the upper right part of my wrist, which is very small and I explained that each star would be really small but she still said each star is $20. Seth charged my friend with the matching tattoo $30 and her placement was on the back of your ear while mine was on my arm. Seth charged my friend an extra $10 because the placement wasn't included in the deal, though if she got her tattoo on her arm he would have done it for $20. After hearing this, my friend who was wanting to get our matching tattoo came over so we could consult with Seth to see how much he would charge, but the receptionist interrupted and told Seth that we can't change the $70 price. My friend said "we aren't trying to change the price, we're just confused about the consultation" and the RECEPTIONIST said "i already explained the prices to her (me)" with an attitude. We were the only people of color/ only dark skin people in there so it seemed like she was calling us cheap and insinuating that we didn't wanna pay her "fair" price even though HER pricing was definitely inflated. This whole situation was really suspicious and it just seems like she is messing around with the other tattoo artist I was consulting with or she has some familial relationship with him and that's why she was trying to charge me such a high price when my friend with the same tattoo got charged less than half of my consultation. The receptionist and my tattoo artist were also speaking to each other in spanish the whole time so it could be construed that they were talking about charging me a higher price for such a simple design. After we left we decided to call so we could get her name to leave a review, but when we asked for her name she ignored the question multiple times and when we asked her name a final time she said "i don't have a name." We were all shocked at this response because a receptionist should not be acting this way so we hung up. She then called back telling us her name is "Naomi." We are not completely sure if the receptionists real name is Naomi or if she lying. I just want to clarify Seth was a great tattoo artist to my friends and I wish he could have done mine. If Seth is employed somewhere else I will definitely be seeing him, but I will not go to ink wolves again. If you plan on going, be prepared to be given attitude from the receptionist.
