He is an artist unlike any I have gotten tattoos from in the past as his talent, attention to detail, and drive are spot on. I've now gotten two different tattoos from him and he is considerate, focused, personable, and fun to engage with. Additionally, if you've got a concept in mind he can bring it to life in a way you will never stop loving. Everyone in the shop is very friendly and there is killer talent at every station. Do yourself a favor and check these skilled homies out!

Large, open studio with plenty of windows and ample parking around. I immediately felt comfortable here, very clean and nicely decorated shop, feels like an art studio. Everyone was friendly and professional. I totally enjoyed my time with Erin. I love the tattoos she did for me! She is super friendly and a highly competent artist. I am so happy I finally found a female tattoo artist I will continue to go back to. I strongly recommend checking out Tsunami Tattoo for your tattoo needs.

Aaron at Sea Change did my first (then 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th) tattoo and I can't imagine a better…read morefirst-time experience! He was patient and listened to all my thoughts and answered all my questions. I was surprised by how pain-free it was. Aaron has been one of my favorite artists (in all mediums) for a long time, so it is such an honor to have several of his unique pieces on my arm (he has also done a ton of custom work to turn the pieces into a full sleeve)! Casey and Aaron are both total sweethearts and you can't go wrong getting a tattoo from either of them.

Let me just start by saying I have a very low tolerance for pain and try to avoid it as much as…read morepossible. I have always wanted a tattoo but have never felt comfortable in any tattoo parlors, until I saw sea change. I loved the intimate setting and the fact that only one person could be tattooed at once. I called in and Casey gave me an appointment right away. I only wanted a small tattoo to begin and he was flexible. The process was great and he made sure I was comfortable the whole 3 minutes it took him to tattoo me. He kept me calm and distracted. I definitely plan to return! He was flexible and affordable.

They're always open to giving options and ideas if you're unsure what you want. Jordi is an amazing tattoo artist. Her line work is unmatched. I appreciate her taking the time to listen to what I wanted and things I wanted to include in my tattoo. I will definitely be coming back to get more tattoos done. My wife ended up getting her tattoo done by Meg while waiting for me, so that was a plus. My wife had an idea of what she wanted and Meg whipped up the design within 5 mins. It turned out amazing!!!! I love how kind and welcoming they were. The process was easy.

I was pretty anxious going in for my tattoo since i deal with anxiety and panic attacks. Pretty soon into me being there and i was totally calm and he just made me feel so comfortable and I'm very happy to say that this place will be my go to. Its hauntingly beautiful interior makes you feel like you're in a gothic Victorian era. Totally my vibe lol. Haven't gotten the chance to meet the other artist, Tiffany, but I've heard wonderful things and can't wait to get tattooed by her and Jeffrey again! If you're local to Tacoma, definitely check this place out One last thing... comfort and connection is the most important thing to me when it comes to finding a new artist / shop.

Upon first entering, I was intimidated by the entrance of the shop but lo and behold, I was surprised by the dark yet comforting interior. They really have taken customer satisfaction into consideration and it seriously worked out so well. The fascinating art pieces and various flash prints had me intrigued and I felt like I was in an art museum. I've been to a few tattoo shops but this has to be my favorite as it was so uniquely designed, especially within a small space. The artists were incredibly kind, understanding, communicative, and made me feel welcomed. They had this natural charm that I really loved too! I'm usually someone who stays nervous during their tattoo appointments but I had just felt so relaxed the entire time. I also want to mention that I mainly communicate with the shop via Instagram and they are /very/ responsive. I've decided to make this my go-to tattoo shop and that says a lot for someone who is quite picky! I'm coming back for more, OTT, thank you so so much again!
