Called up for a walk in for two small tattoos. They got us fit in at the end of the day and the…read moreartist and staff were nice and helpful. We did set up a last minute appointment and wasn't a huge fan of waiting outside in cold weather for like 15-20 mins but it was due to very strict hygiene/ sanitation reasons. They also had us sanitize as we walked in so very clean! It's actually a pretty small shop inside but their prices are great for the art, they also are willing to work with your budget by adjusting size or design which is helpful if you are on a budget. Would recommend especially after they messaged later reinforcing that they are there if we needed anything later on. Thank you to Jimmy who did the tats and Max who got us the info to get us in!

I can't say enough about Katy Kat, her kindness, concern and the artwork she tattooed on me. I had…read morea vague picture of what I wanted and she turned it into the guitar I love and more than I expected. She also tuned up an older "impulse" tattoo I had gotten of a Hopie Indian symbol "the man in the maze" about 2 years ago that already looked old and faded it looked like a black splotch and as the picture shows now it pops. This was all done for more than a fair price in a timely manner. I had looked into other places in and around Wilmington before I found Iron Anchor in an out of the way location in Leland and trying to make an appointment was next to impossible and the attitude of a couple of the artists was a little like they were doing me a favor so Katy Kat was a breath of fresh air. Don't hesitate to give her a shot for your next tattoo.
