Tommy was quick to make us feel comfy by welcoming our business, even though it wasn't an enormous project. What followed was fantastic experiences for both of us. Not only did he do a great job, tommy also touched up a shaky version of the last ink I had gotten. For a verrrrry reasonable price, we got awesome art and conversation. Go visit this shop! Very much worth looking outside of walnut st. for!!!!

Erin had done a large tattoo on my thigh at this shop. The line work is extremely uneven and…read morecrooked throughout. Some lines are noticeably thicker than others, and it looks like the needle had gone too deep in several areas. Instead of clean, smooth lines, the tattoo appears shaky and poorly done. I understand that no tattoo is perfect, but this goes beyond minor imperfections. For something this large and permanent, I expected a much higher level of precision. I was there for many hours and spent hundreds of dollars to be left with a big embarrassment.

I had been planning on getting a cover up job for an old tattoo on my back for years-- and in the…read moreend decided to take the plunge-- with a little apprehension about how it would be. So-- I thought I'd tell you how it was-- in case you too are teetering on the edge of indecision and needed just a little push to compel you to take the plunge too. I worked with Mike Bradley-- and he was fantastic. I gave him two images that I liked, then he came up with an original work from those ideas-- and he is an artist-- with an artist's eye for detail and precision-- and in the end, the work was spectacular. In the end, the piece took about five hours. Needless to say, getting a larger tattoo means pain-- and I think I'd gone in underestimating just how important it is that the artist doing the work is personable and patient and thoughtful. Mike was all of these-- which took the edge off of the pain and made the time fly. So! If you're looking for quality and skill, I highly recommend Mike at 717 in Columbia. The place offers piercing and tattooing services, and jewelry as well. It's clean, and the staff is helpful and accommodating, and it's not too far off Route 30, and has cheap, metered street parking. And you know how it is: tattoos are a little like them Lay's potato chips-- it's really hard to stop at just one. When I went in I had no intention of getting more-- but now I'm reconsidering; I had such a positive experience, and I don't know that I can articulate just how much I love the piece that I will carry on my back for the rest of my days-- and I want more. So, if you were looking to support a locally owned business, and support our local artists, you should definitely check out 717.

When I went they were working by appointment only because of covid, and requiring masks and such. That may have changed by now. The shop is super funky and CLEAN. It's bright and the artwork inside is eclectic. There are lots of artsy things available for sale besides tattoos: candles, art, jewelry, decor, and all from local artists and artisans. The folks who own the shop are very friendly and safety conscious. I am a middle aged suburban mom and I was perfectly comfortable going to Electric Pumpkin and giving them my skin to work on. I am so happy with the tattoos I got and I'm planning to return soon.

I'm the type of person who likes to be prepared going into something I've never done before, and when I met Chau, I instantly felt at ease and it felt like a good friend was doing my eyebrows. She is so thorough and detailed! She makes sure you know exactly what's going to happen and happily answers any questions or concerns. I loved being in the know about every step of the process. You can tell she takes great pride in what she does and she worked hard to get to where she is! I highly recommend Chau and her services! You won't be disappointed

The transfer was good, spacing looked nice, etc. But when I was laying on the table, something was off. I could feel the artist repeatedly going over a section they had already done. (I could feel the letters as they spelled it out and I knew they should have been finished.) All the words were complete. But the gun was still going. When I asked the artist what was going on, he cleared his throat and hesitated before saying "uhh, umm, yeah. It's done." When I looked in the mirror, I noticed that the word "PAIN" seemed bold compared to the rest of the wording. I thought maybe it was the initial swelling of the tattoo. But even after it healed, the lines word "PAIN" were thicker than the rest of the tattoo. It's been years, and I'm thankful it never blew out. But I'm still disappointed by it and I'm glad I can't see it on a daily basis because it's hidden under my bra. Most days I try to forget it's there because it's truly disappointing.
