If you're going to have a flash sale, you should have enough artists that can accommodate the influx in business. The owner just putts around, pretending to be busy, rather than helping out his already stressed out team. It's also pretty unprofessional to ask your artists to have their appointment, who is already there, WAIT while you tattoo a walk in.

I have taken some time to think about writing this because I understand that reviews can harm a…read morebusiness, however I want to share my experience so customers understand what they are getting themselves into. I originally went to Coopa Creations to get a tragus piercing. The girl did an amazing job and it was an awesome time. It's been about a week since then and I have had no complications. Earlier this morning the front ball of the piercing fell off and was nowhere to be found. The girl at Coopa is only there on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I live close to good and evil so I stopped in to see if they had a replacement and could fix it for me. There was only two people there, and one of them was working on a tattoo. The other was not doing anything, and when I said what I needed he seemed like he did not want to do it and asked the other guy to. The guy tattooing said he was busy and he would appreciate it if he could do it. I took a seat and waited ten minutes for him to set up a room. I understand I was a walk in appointment, but he went out to smoke and was talking to people. It almost seemed like he was procrastinating seeing me. He finally came in and reeked of cannabis. He was looking at it and tried on the ball, in which it did not fit. He then did this three more times. He kept trying different piercings in which nothing would fit. He said he knew what he needed but could not find it. He got so frustrated that he was shouting fuck repeatedly. He then yelled for the guy who was tattooing and said he could not find the piece he needed. The other guy stood up from where he was working, grabbed the right piece and gave it to him immediately. The guy still seemed frustrated and angry. He was shaking when trying to put the ball back on. He was pulling at the piercing aggressively trying to maneuver my ear, knowing I told him it was a fresh piercing. I had tears in my eyes when he finally got it. He did not treat me like a person. It was so painful and that thought never crossed his mind. The other guy tattooing apologized for his anger and didn't make me pay for the jewelry ball replacement. I am now writing this a couple hours later, and my piercing that had no complications prior is now swollen, throbbing, and bleeding non-stop. An easy fix was extremely complicated and handled unprofessionally. I wouldn't recommend anything about this place. I just felt so uncomfortable the whole time and now I am suffering the consequences of someone's carelessness. I am sorry again, I know reviews can harm businesses but I think people should know this about the staff of this place before going in for a body modification.

My artist(Megan Walter) was not only incredibly talented but also super patient, taking the time to understand exactly what I wanted and making sure every detail was perfect. The linework is crisp, the shading is flawless, and the overall design came out even better than I imagined. They were meticulous with hygiene and made the whole experience comfortable and stress-free. If you're looking for quality work by someone who truly cares about their craft, this is the place. I'll definitely be coming back for my next piece! Check out the artist @_get_yatted on instagram!

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!

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.

When I started to talk to the woman at the front desk, she informed me that the tattoo artists are gone for the day and that they will be back tomorrow. The sign on the front door states that people can get tattoos from 12-6p on Thursdays. If this is the case, why even stay open if the tattoo artists leave during tattoo hours and not come back. I am going to take my business to another tattoo studio. The only positive note was that the woman at the front desk was very nice and apologetic from the artists not being there. Personally, she should not have been placed in that spot.
