From the moment we walked in, Jenna at the front desk made us feel welcome. Then we met three incredible artists who each brought their own talent and personality to the experience. Brian did mine, and I absolutely love how it turned out. Alex took care of my friend's tattoo and did amazing work. Abi did my wife's piece, and it came out beautifully. All three artists were professional, friendly, and seriously talented. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We'll definitely be back for more ink.

There are times in life when people take the most simplistic act and make it over complicated. That…read morewas my experience in trying to get a tattoo. I was very clear and descript in what I wanted, but several shops refused to quote me unless I uploaded art and called out a specific font. I wanted 12 small characters and was open to allowing the artist to suggest the best font. Being s small job, I was certain it would qualify for a shop minimum, but many shops had unreasonable minimums. I was told the tattoo would take 30-45 based on what I described and since it had been 30 years since I had a tattoo, I didn't recall what I paid or how long my original ping pong ball sized tattoo took or cost. I felt like my job would have been $30 at Koolsville, but I wanted someone with more expertise to do the job. In the end, I waited till I got to town, and Illuminati was across the street from our hotel. They did an excellent job on my tattoo; it took about 15 minutes and the shop minimum was $100. I knew my job was small when the artist asked me if he could take a minute to touch up my existing tattoo. If you are on the fence or don't need an artist that has been seen on A&E, just recognize they are shop that take on smaller jobs for a fair price.

FRANK Oh. My. God…read more Where do I even begin with this absolute fever dream of an experience. I went to frank for a tattoo thinking I was about to embark on a meaningful, spiritual journey of self-expression. What I actually embarked on was a psychological thriller directed by someone who once saw a tattoo machine in a YouTube ad and said, "Yeah, I can do that." First of all, this man's studio looked like a storage unit that lost a custody battle. The "vibe" was somewhere between abandoned dentist office and haunted vape shop. There was a single folding chair that sounded like it was begging for mercy every time I breathed. Now let's talk about the tattoo. I actually had to take a lap around the studio because WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT'S ON MY BODY FOREVER AND IT'S PERFECT??? The lines are so clean they look AI-generated. The shading? So smooth it feels illegal. The placement? Spiritual. Cosmically aligned. If I stand at the right angle I'm pretty sure it unlocks inner peace. I keep catching myself staring at it like it's a new pet. I have shown it to strangers. I have adjusted my outfits to make sure it's visible. I moisturize it like it's royalty. If it asked me for rent, I would pay it. The pain? Worth it. The adrenaline? Elite. The emotional attachment? Concerning. This tattoo has changed my personality. I now say things like "yeah, my artist..." as if I've been part of an underground art collective for years. I have zero chill about it. If you make eye contact with me for longer than two seconds, I will show you. Five stars for talent. Five stars for making me question reality. I walked in mildly nervous and walked out feeling like I had just been branded by a mysterious but benevolent art deity. Would I go back? Absolutely. Would I understand him any better? Probably not. Do I care? Not even slightly. Anyway, 10/10. No notes. I would absolutely let this happen to me again.

I walked in as a normal human being and left spiritually reconfigured, emotionally moisturized, and…read morepermanently superior in a slightly concerning way. All because of Frank. The line work? Cleaner than Charlie Sheen. The shading? Smoother than my ability to make responsible life choices. At one point I genuinely considered framing the stencil and starting a minimalist life devoted solely to admiring it. Not only did he absolutely demolish my expectations (in a good way, like i demolish Taco Bell after a breakup bender), but the vibes were immaculate. 10/10 would trust him with my skin, my secrets, and possibly the deed to my house. Book the appointment. Let him alter your molecular structure. You won't regret it.

I came in with a rather large group but they were extremely accommodating and had a generally chill attitude and vibe. A couple of the people in group added piercings and touch ups and they had no issues with the last minute changes our big group kept adding. Really great option and they have tattoos across a lot of different price ranges. Highly recommend this location!

Of course we came for the $10 tattoos and I'm really happy with mine. However, the service could've been a bit better. Not horrible, but could be better. All in all... i would prefer the other location to this one. This one is pretty small, and i think their tattoo selection is smaller than the larger one. The woman who did my tattoo wasn't very talkative. So i let her work and just took the pain lol. She did a great job tho. I can't complain too much. The job was done and I'm satisfied.

Inspired by the Welcome to Holland poem, my friend and I got matching tulip tattoos--something deeply personal, but also full of beauty and meaning. From the very beginning, Amethyst was everything you hope for in a tattoo artist and more. She was incredibly responsive, warm, professional, and knowledgeable. There's a calm, poised energy about her that instantly puts you at ease--especially if you're someone who finds the whole tattoo process a little intimidating (which, let's be real, a lot of us do). She walked us through every step with clarity and care, making sure we felt comfortable and confident the entire time. Her shop was clean, stylish, and had such a cool, welcoming vibe. And the aftercare kit she gave us? So thoughtful and well put together--it really showed how much she cares about her clients beyond just the appointment. Getting a tattoo is a permanent decision, and finding someone you trust with that is not easy. But Amethyst is absolutely worth that trust. Whether you're local to Vegas or just visiting like we were, she is 100% worth it. 12/10 experience--no notes
