Ryan Fleming is a professional, kind, funny human being and someone I look forward to working with…read more The studio itself is clean and predictable. He creates something out of the pile of ideas I send him and never disappoints. He curates a welcoming and relaxing environment and doesn't fail to keep his hand relatively light and the experience short. It's all your own preference, but I never feel as though I am alone through the process, he has the ability to make conversation with a wall or just be the wall. I have first-hand seen him interact with unexpected costumers and been touched by how he can kindly answer questions that might seem obvious to others. I can't wait to work with him again. I just got a tattoo done today, but have added a picture of a memorial tattoo that he did for me a couple years back.

It's the second floor of a house, and you genuinely feel like you've been welcomed into a home. And then the artists...are spectacular in really every way. Everyone I have met has been so nice, so cool, and of course so skilled and talented. They take their work tremendously seriously and produce amazing results. On top of all that, their prices are super reasonable. Getting inked can be super nerve wracking, particularly if it's your first time. I can't imagine a better studio than Tsunami to put you at ease. Seriously I can't recommend them highly enough.

Matt is so kind and knows exactly what will work and what won't. He's not going to give you a shitty tattoo. The " shop" is in a beautiful second floor Portland apartment flat. It's clean, organized and quiet. There's parking on the street but I've never not parked in front of the building. I would recommend Tsunami a hundred times over. You need an appointment and I'd recommend calling well ahead because they do not take walk ins.

I am completely dumbfounded by the level of unprofessional things that my artist Justin at windham…read moretattoo had displayed. What are the key issues? He was rude to a special needs women about asking him to help her screw her lip ball back on. She couldn't do it do he gave her a big hard time. He smoked his vape right into the fresh tattoo as well as continued to get up during to play w his phone and eat and keep the same glove on even by "trying to use the other side of his hand so it stays sanitized" When my boyfriend came in he was acting professional but as soon as he left he went to start vaping and assisting others. He didn't give me a set price as well as assumed I had the tattoo pre done. He made me wait a 45-50 minute to charge me that while he was stenciling. Told me this would be $250 and assumed that I had just needed coloring when I never stated it was just coloring as I said this is the reference photo I want to get done and add so and so touches. He also wanted to reject my appointment bc it wasn't original which I expressed it was not my design. This shop needs two hands on staff like He kept stopping to help Others with piercing and appointment scheduling and printing off a stencil for a dude instead of telling him like come back when I'm done and we can work it out. I would never lie on a artist, like I was afraid to tell him A lot bc of how he reacted to a special needs women asking for him to do his job. He's super sketchy about money too like he refuses to take card payments. He told a guy who came in before I was done the first session "I don't do card I do cash I'll cover your atm fee if that's what you're worried about" There is plenty of mistakes and unfinished spots that were just so lazily filled in that it's almost laughable because a child could fill in the lines completely. I will never ever go back, the dude seems to be completely uninterested in taking his time and not making so many fucking mistakes. If you chose to be a tattoo artist or piercer you need to take your job serious. I appreciate him doing the tattoo but I won't ever ever reccomend this place or him as a artist.

I worked with Alby and he truly is a professional. He took my idea and made the sweetest tattoo. I liked that he printed out a few sizes so we could play with location and what it would look like. The level of talent was unreal - I have gotten so many compliments on the detail of work. Would not hesitate to recommend Alby or this shop for your next tattoo.

I have worked with both Alby and Casey and cannot speak highly enough of North Coast…read more Alby did a smaller piece on me a few years ago, and I felt instantly welcomed into the space. The tattoo is lovely and the healing process didn't even seem to happen - such fine work! More recently I have been to see Casey for a larger piece. I brought a crazy vision for a tattoo that I had always dreamed of and didn't think would be possible based on the placement and complexity. Casey has brought this dream to life. I am so grateful for his creativity, finesse, and general vibes that make getting a large painful tattoo feel easy and has changed my look in such a sick way. And not to mention all of the other beautiful tattoos I have witnessed in process by other artists at North Coast - When someone asks me where to get a tattoo in Maine, I always recommend North Coast!

What an AMAZING experience I had at this shop!…read more My mom, sister, and I made same-day appointments with Jess at this beautiful tattoo/piercing/art gallery shop in downtown North Conway. It honestly was the best day in recent memory. This shop is unlike any tattoo spot I've been to - it's serene, calming, and immediately puts you at ease in a situation where you might be feeling a little nervous. Jess, Emma (the other tattoo artist), and Wayne (a piercer who has pierced me several times!) are all welcoming and fabulous to have conversations with. Jess is such an amazing artist - watching her tattoo is a thrill - and her artwork hanging around the shop is unreal. I spent much of my time here observing her amazing paintings, as well as the loads of gorgeous plants, succulents, and Victorian-esque items! This shop is clean, the artists are genuine, and the work they do is the best I've ever experienced. I don't see a reason to go anywhere else... I'll be back asap, Darling Grey!

I have been going to Fianna studio for years now and still continue to be amazed and impressed by…read moreJames' work. My family has been going here for all of their tattoos as well. He is a Fantastic tattoo artist, and artist in general. I love how he takes the time to discuss what you really are looking for in your tattoo. He then takes all that information and draws out the perfect custom tattoo that you will absolutely love, and then tattoos it on you with such precision and accuracy that it will really blow you away. His lines are so clean, and water shading is pretty damn perfect. He is very focused on his work and will not let you leave with a tattoo that he/you won't like. The new studio is also beautiful, it's located in the old firehouse building that has almost completely been restored. The studio has two large windows that actually used to be the garage doors to the fire truck bays. They let in a lot of natural light and give you something to look at while you're being tattooed. The studio is also filled with a lot of really interesting art, mostly paintings, and always has good music playing. It's really a relaxing and creative environment. The shop is also very clean, and James is very good about making sure things are sanitized. I have almost two full sleeves completely done by him, and definitely plan on getting more until I don't have any more room left on me! I have gotten to the point where I give him a simple idea and then let him create whatever he would like. If you are looking for a beautifully done custom tattoo, I highly recommend this studio.
