We…read morewere on the island for our honeymoon back in sept 2021 and we had wanted to get a couple's tattoo, but made the mistake of not planning in advance. We called up Tried & True and were able to schedule a last minute consultation & appointment. Danny was very nice and accommodating and worked with us to bring our vision to life. The line work was exceptional and didn't take too long to complete both of ours! I would definitely recommend coming here and going to Danny if you have something with finer details!

I've had it planned for several months as to just get an appointment that fit with my schedule at the end of the trip.

The vibe is fun and inviting and I felt comfortable and welcomed.

Just came back from vacation and we wanted to get a tattoo as a memory for our awesome vacation…read more Although the shop was clean, and people seemed very knowledgeable and nice I was not impressed with the work. I do believe that the senior artist does amazing work from what was shown in books and portfolio and I admire that his son is taking in his foot prints but his son Isiahs work was less than satisfying. Really bummed that I decided to get my tattoo done there. Now I have to find another artist to fix up the mistakes. I'll post the pics of what we wanted and what we got... On another note I was told the derm film would protect my tattoo. Well it seems he forgot to put the moisture before the film so it ripped off a lot of my tattoo. Really bummed. My aunt lives in the Bay Area and is hoping to get a portrait of her fur baby very soon but it will be from the father. Hopefully he can fix what his son did.

The only reason I went here was because it was the last day of our vacation and I honestly thought…read morethe tattoo I wanted was impossible to mess up. I was wrong. When we called to make an appointment they didn't take down our names (red flag number one) and when we got to the shop no one remembered taking our call of setting up the appointment with us. I was charged $100 for honestly the worst tattoo I've ever gotten, that the artist spent 3 minutes and 15 seconds on (the iPad connected to the tattoo gun counts how long they spend on the tattoo). I'll let the picture of my tattoo speak for itself. It's honestly super simple line work that an amateur could have done better and now I'm stuck with what looks like a janky prison tattoo. Lesson learned, we won't return. Also it's only been a little over two weeks and look how much ink has fallen out.
