They suggested a flower with vines, and even offered to make a sketch first. They of course wanted me to make an appointment. But in between clients I asked if they could do a small tattoo on my ankle of a crescent moon and stars, in honor of my cat Stella who we are putting down this week. Adam took the time to get the sketch right on the computer how I liked it. He also took his time setting up his area, everything looked clean. It's a beautiful shop. While it did hurt and that's expected, he did a beautiful, clean job. I'm super happy with it. I would totally recommend this place. Be sure to make an appointment.

I had been following Mel and finally scheduled to get her to tattoo me, but it was delayed due to…read moreher move to Queen Tattoo. The day finally came and I zipped over to the studio. I parked on the side of the building even though there's parking out front because Beach drivers can get wild. As I walked in she was waiting for me. We greeted each other, signed some paperwork and went to the back to get started. Mel is very professional, very clean and her pricing is very reasonable. I gave her an idea of what I wanted which was one of her jam jars but with mixed berries as her other designs had only one kind of fruit in them and she came up with something beautiful! She also got it done in record time. Thank you Mel!

Let me first start by saying that I was first tattooed by the apprentice in the shop. The tattoo I…read morerequested was on the lower knuckles. I 100% understand that ink on the hands is difficult in the way that their are several layers of skin and you use your hands everyday. During the first session with the apprentice, whom I won't name as it isnt her fault, the ink did not retain at all...she had a very light hand. The owner wasnt their to begin with. She showed up about an hour after we started. She came in, looked at the work being done and did not say or correct the apprentice in any sort of way. After I contacted the apprentice with pics of my hands and the absolute lack of retained ink, she asked for me to come back in to correct it, at no charge. She assured me her boss/the owner Viki would be there to oversee and correct. I went in, for the second time. Viki was nowhere to be seen. We started the session. After 2 fingers were done, she came in. She watched the apprentice for maybe 15 minutes, then herself decided to do the letter L on my 3rd finger. Then she left the shop. Cut to not even 3 weeks later the ink, once again is not retained. Some letters with no ink at all! I consulted with another professional, who informed me the placement of the letters are in the absolute wrong place. They are actually on the lower crease. They should be between the bends on your fingers. I see this as irresponsibility on Vikis part as the main artist and owner of the establishment. An apprentice shouldn't have ever been given the go ahead to do a knuckle tattoo without prior knowledge. The kicker is, on that first go around when Viki came in, she didnt say a word about the incorrect placement. I would assume an "award winning" artist and owner would care if their apprentice is doing a tattoo completely incorrect. But no..not a word. So I blame the owner. Now, to correct this mess, I have to get their mistake lasered off, yeah it will only take 1 session since the ink is barely there, then go to a responsible professional who knows and cares and isnt just trying to make a buck. I wouldn't recommend Queen Tattoo Co to anyone. Yeah, I see awards and such in the lobby, but I'd rather frequent an establishment that will actually do it the correct way and the responsible way the first time. Addition: Yes, I did sign and was well aware I was booking with an apprentice. However, it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY as the owner/ teacher to accurately teach. You are 100% incorrect when you showed up. It was NOT after the tattoo was complete. You should have been there the entire time to accurately show the apprentice how to do the tattoo. You apparently had to interrupt your workout as you showed up in workout gear for godssake. You're a disgrace to the tattoo community. Show your apprentice how to do tattoos correctly...not prison scratch.

I showed Sean the tattoo I have been obsessing over for about a year and he made some alterations and I like it even more! It's been some years since I got my last tattoo (about 8). Sean was very understanding and went a little slower at first to help me "remember" what it feels like. Lol!! He was pleasant to speak with and was very light handed. The shop is very clean and the process very sterile. Although they had music playing it wasn't deafening like some other shops I've been in. Overall I had a great experience! When we're in Jacksonville again and I'm in the market for another tattoo I will definitely return!
