I had a tattoo at 16 I got covered by Tiffany and I couldn't be happier. Not only did she choose what to cover with and nail it, but I was happy to walk out and can't stop staring at her work. I will be back for my next tattoo by her!! read more

It's taken me a little while to write this as I kept hoping I'd get a response from Ryane Urie to get my tattoo fixed. I'm not sure if she was just having a bad day or if her work is as amateur as what she did on me. I specifically asked for a watercolor tattoo and also wanted some geometric detail to it and she basically did what looks like a clip art version of what I wanted her to do. The tattoo is not only nothing special, it has obvious mistakes such as a lines that make no sense and look like she misplaced the needle. I'm really bummed because I got this tattoo in a very obvious place and now I've been self-conscious about it since I got it. On top of that, she quoted me one price and overcharged me after that fact, and also didn't count in that I had already paid her a deposit. I was pretty exhausted after the tattoo and a little disappointed which I didn't know how to react to in the moment so I just paid and left. When I expressed my frustration after that fact, she didn't even bother to respond about wanting to fix the tattoo. On top of all that, throughout the process she was having super negative conversations with her coworkers, criticizing someone and talking really poorly in general. Not the best vibe. I'm really bummed that I have this ugly tattoo I overpaid for that I'm probably going to have to get removed now. Thanks for waisting my time and money Ryane. :( read more

Urban Element Tattoo - Ryane's amateur work on me - Tattoo Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Love my nose piercings! They were super professional and their work is so great with such a wide range of styles. Definitely coming back!

I would not recommend Rocky for a piercing, especially if you are scared and apprehensive. He has no patience or explaination of his services even after 15 years of piercing. Because I asked too many questions about his procedure he got frustrated and mad. He would not allow me to watch as he prepared for my piercing. He told me just to sit back or he was not going to do me. By then I became really scared and apprehensive so I asked to be excused while he pierced my daughter to get myself together. He said he wasn't going to do me or my daughters. Then he proceeded to rip up my documents and throw them on the floor. He yelled at me and my two daughters to get out of the shop so loud and disrespectfully that the entire shop went silient. All eyes were on us as we exited Urban Element Tattoo without saying a word. Very said experience to say the least. I can't help but think that for Rocky it was a color thing! We are Black! read more

***Dont judge Urban Element because of Ryane Urie*** I had a consult with Ryan Urie to finish a sleeve but then when it came time for the tattoo she flaked and lied 3 different times. I contacted Rowell for a consult and told him about the drama with Ryane. He was so embarrassed that she had done this in his shop and bent over backwards to make it right. He got my appointment in early and even gave me a $150 credit to make up for Ryane wasting my time and the $80 deposit she took from me. Ryane had told me that there was mistreatment of the LGBT community in the shop and that turned out to be a complete lie. Urban Element is LGBT friendly, they're by appointment only so it doesn't turn into a hang out like over at Certified Customs and other places, and they're professional artists who still believe in customer service. I've shopped all over Denver and Urban Element is the all around winner. read more

I have always wanted to get a tattoo and I finally got my first tattoo with my best friend. Jake did our tattoo and did such an amazing job on it! He explained everything to us so well, was so respectful and overall a really nice guy! His work is amazing, I highly recommend him !! read more

Urban Element tattoo is one of the best tattoo shops in Colorado. All of the artists are very experienced and you can tell by the intricate and perfect designs they create.

Can't wait to get my next tattoo by Rowell!! read more

I actually was tattooed by Urban Element Tattoo's Ryane Urie while she was visiting a local shop here in St Louis. I can honestly say, I actually design tattoos around times she will be here or I will be out there. Her geometric and watercolor images are so amazing. I don't think I'll let anyone else tattoo me from here on out. Plus I can't wait to come up with a soundwave tattoo and have her give me some ink like that! Her talent is unsurpassed. And she puts you at ease whether you're getting your first or your fourth. She's just a great all around human to have work on you. read more

Very clean, professional, and just awesome artists there. Ryane is phenomenal and did amazing work on my leg. I am very impressed and honored to be there. read more

Lovely, to put my experience simply. Ryane is absolutely amazing. She was able to calm my nerves and make me feel completely confident in what I was getting. The energy of the shop is vibrant and inspiring. I've recommended all of my friends to her. Aside from having such a wonderful experience there, I'm in love with my piece. Ryane is the perfect artist for first time clients and experienced skin. read more

The artwork is great but unfortunately they are not responsive to inquiries about getting tattooed there. I have been trying to get someone to respond to me about a cover-up and no word back. It is appointment only so to even get a consultation you have to make an appointment but how can you make an appointment if they will not respond to you? read more

I had two tattoos on the inside of my wrists that I desperately needed covered up. I did a ton of research, and came across Brian Ulibarri with UrbanElement. We emailed back and forth, and he was gracious when I would randomly email him with a design I saw online. I didn't have anything in specific that I had my heart set on, but I was impressed with his watercolor work and the originality of all of his pieces. Ultimately, he came up with two amazing designs that no other artist I had talked to before thought could be done. I was told I'd need to cover them (nautical stars) with flowers or something that just wasn't me or my taste. Well, Brian covered the first one beautifully. You'd never be able to tell it was a cover up. He was professional, asked frequently how I was doing, and answered all of my questions sincerely. I never once felt out of place. As for the shop itself: It's clean, well organized, well lit, and welcoming. The other upside is that they're an appointment only shop, so there aren't random people walking in off of the street to distract everyone. I will absolutely be going back to get my other wrist done, and my fiancee is already in talks to get some of his work finished. We will follow Brian wherever he goes. read more

After having been turned down by til death tattoo right down the road as they said the simple tattoo I wanted and where I wanted it was not possible...I decided to go into Urban element. Having never been tattooed before (and having been just turned away) I was super nervous. From the moment I walked in everyone was friendly and laid back. They told me what I wanted would be no problem at all and actually got me in immediately. Chris did my tattoo and it turned out beautiful. It is delicate and small but filled with detail, I couldn't be happier. 100% recommend Chris and urban element! read more

Before going to Urban element I had been looking for the perfect artist to be the one who I would go to for all the pieces I plan on getting to make my sleeve. I am very picky, i searched for months, and I came across Ryane Urie in Inked magazine. Ryane is incredible, her details and line work are unrivaled and she is so creative. Ryane nailed every single color that I wanted with perfection and her black and grey work is incredible too. The shop she works out of, Urban Element, is a very clean, and awesome shop located in downtown Denver. I couldn't be happier with the first tattoo I got with her and I plan on finishing my sleeve with her! read more

See all

Went there to get a queen of hearts on my ring finger, he did a bad job. Very botched job. Don't go here.

Jake is awesome! I would definitely recommend him to anyone. He takes really good care of you and always makes sure you are happy with what you are getting. He's an amazing artist. Definitely hit him up if you are looking into this place! read more

I went to see Matt (aka Kramer) for a nose piercing and he was amazing to work with. He answered all my questions prior to the appointment and was super professional and helped to put me at ease before/during my piercing. I would highly recommend Matt and the shop. Very clean, friendly, and easy to work with. Also the cost for the quality is excellent. read more

Was in town from California and wanted to get tattooed because I like to collect them while on vacation! Found this spot on yelp and went to their site and found Ryane who is amazing... so much fun and has a great personality... also is a native to Denver, talented in watercolor and I emailed her and she gave me my watercolor rose. So if you are in Denver pay a visit, any of the artist seem good depending on what you want done, clean and welcoming spot to be tatted! read more

I walked in and talked to Johnny about my idea. He took my idea and elevated it even more with his expertise. Fun guy to talk to, great artist, overall was a great experience and I'm super happy with my piece and the artistic spin he was able to put on it. I told him to just do what he thinks would look the best. read more

This experience was great. Ryane did an amazing job on my girlfriend's tattoo, her daughter's tattoo and mine. Very clean, friendly and fun. When we are in the marked for more we will be back. read more

I searched for months in Denver to find an artist. I had the pleasure of running across Ryane Urie's work when I was on the Urban Element site. At the time she was in Hawaii. We conversed via email about what I had in mine. She was responsive and I was super excited to meet her. When I finally got the chance to, she was full of energy and that was one of the things that ended a lot of the nervousness I had with getting a tattoo. The work she's doing for me will take some time but I don't honk I could've have picked a better artist to work on this for me and I'm excited about the way this project is going to come out. read more

Disappointed in Rowell for not caring about me as a customer and not listening to me during the consultation of the tattoo I wanted! First off he didn't have the drawing ready by the time he said he would and so instead of coming in like we discussed to revise the piece I heard from him a week later through e-mail! The drawing he sent me looked like he found it on google because it wasn't done by hand but besides that it was not anything close to what i talked about with him! It seemed like my tattoo was an afterthought and I was bummed that I went from being a fan of his work to not wanting him to tattoo me at all! He sent the terrible rendition of what I asked for the day before the tattoo was supposed to happen so I bailed! Keep your $50.00 deposit! And I don't even care that I waited 2 months to even speak to you because your waiting list is so long, it wasn't the experience with you I thought I was going to get anyway! But on the bright side he has stacked his shop with really talented artists besides himself so I have checked out someone else in the shop and hope that I can have a better experience with them! This place gets one more try because sometimes people just don't vibe! Maybe the second go around I'll write a new review! read more

This is an amazing shop with many great artists. I had done a lot of research regarding artist's and their portfolios. I have been working with Mickey Myers. He has done a couple of beautiful pieces for me, and we have more lined up. I have spent a decent amount of time there getting tattooed, and have seen a lot of work that the other artists do, and not a single one of them has been anything less then amazing. All of these artists do beautiful work. I highly recommend this shop. read more

Jake does amazing amazing work. He's super talented and friendly and knowledgable. Very skilled and gave my sister and I exactly what we wanted and more!! read more

What an amazing shop! Got a tattoo from Ryane Urie and have gone back to get more. She does an amazing job, so talented and personal, not a dull moment! read more

I went there to have a bad tat fixed. Kremer did a fantastic job! my awful tat is now tolerable. After that, I had him do 5 more pieces, all of which I love. I will never use another artist as long as Kremer is working read more

Based on many friends' recommendations, I requested to be on waiting list for Rowell. People told me he is worth the wait. Since I fly to Colorado often, I figured I can swing by and replace my existing tattoo. The wait has come and Rowell did not disappoint!!! I can not believe he was able to transform my old crappy looking tattoo to an amazing art. Many people have complimented my new tattoo. Rowell was professional. He listened to my requests and was able to design a tattoo that I was expecting. I am so happy that I have booked another time later with him when I can fly out to Colorado and have another tattoo done. Thank you thank you Rowell. It's so important to have the right artist so please get Rowell when you can. He's worth the wait and the fly out!!! read more

Urban Element Tattoo is a wonderful shop. It is very clean, trendy, and the staff is extremely nice. Many of my family members have tats by Rowell. Rowell is wonderful. He is not your average tattoo artist. While he can give you an average cookie cutter design (if that is what you are looking for) but he specializes in the out of the box designs. He is very talented and his designs and use of colors are amazing. He can take your idea and suggest other things to make it unique and so much better! He is professional and very friendly. He makes you feel comfortable and relaxed during your session. Which anyone who has ever had a tattoo knows is extremely important. I highly recommend this shop to anyone! read more
