His talent is forever evolving and he has quickly become Da Best Tattoo Artists around! Yes, I am related to this amazing Artist and I decided to book an appointment 3 months ago, since I was flying in to attend my cousin's wedding at the Lake of the Ozark's. How exciting! Flying in from Honolulu HI to get a custom Mitch "GERBER" tattoo done, here at Lake of the Ozark's BAD DONKEY TATTOO COMPANY! Having my nephew put his mark of excellence on me, gives me a feeling of great Pride, STRENGTH & HONOR! I arrived at the Bad Donkey Company this past Sunday, thrilled to have my nephew put his magic ink on me! It's been years since my first tattoo and I was a bit nervous but knew that Mitch was the ink master capable of taking my idea and transforming it into an epic masterpiece. One that symbolizes the Strength & Honor of our Gerber O'hana! Sitting in his chair, I was amazed and blown away buy Mitch's precise attention to detail, smooth and steady hand and professional touch. Thoughts of getting my next epic tattoo by Mitch, are already running through my head as I write part of this review, as Mitch da Red Rooster applies his ink on me. The Gerber family always knew Mitch's passion of expressing himself through his artistic drawings, would pave his way to a successful career. Mitch's transformation into a BAD DONKEY tattoo artist, is proof that you can grown up living and loving your dream! There are other talented artists here at the Bad Donkey Tattoo CO. However, I stake my name, reputation and skin on giving a FIVE STAR review to MITCH GERBER AS THE #1 BAD A$$ Tattoo Artist! FIVE EPIC STARS to Da Red Rooster Mitch Gerber & The Bad Donkey Tattoo Company! If you're looking for some ink and you want it done by Da BEST, Call ahead, way ahead - He's normally booked months in advance! (Tell 'em Don G on Yelp sent you for a special gift after your session) I'm booking my next visit in 2022 once I get back Hawaii & figure out my vacation schedule!

She pierced it then says " huh" and she starts messing with the needle in my face to straighten it out Cus it was so crooked. I asked her after she showed me "is it crooked because it's pierced?" and she said yes. She didn't give me any aftercare info at all. When I called back about it she was stuttering so bad cus she knew she messed it up. I posted an honest review about my experience and she straight up gaslights me in reply. She lied to my face. And it's not the only piercing she's done crooked. Do your research.

I went in to get a tattoo on Thursday, August 9th. The staff who greeted us were friendly and…read moreprofessional, and have no bearing on my current review. This review is of the artist who tattooed me. Gage didn't communicate with me much, outside of choosing the colors for my tattoo. I had to tell him twice that the original design I wanted had extra stuff in it, and that I only wanted the crystal design tattooed on my arm (I told this to the girl at the desk who prepared the design for me, and she even told him that before I did). He also didn't communicate with me much during the tattooing process, and took "artistic liberties" with the design without even telling me until after he'd already done it (I spent most of the time with my head back and eyes closed, or talking to my friend who was with me to keep me distracted because it was in a very sensitive/painful spot. I didn't watch the whole time because I trusted that the artist knew what he was doing.). I wanted the exact design I picked out with just different colors, but what I got looks nothing like the original aside from its shape. He even completely left out an important part of the design (this bubbly/sparkly look on the bottom that goes about a third of the way up the crystal). The whole thing is pretty messy and looks like he rushed through it. There are bare spots where he didn't get any ink at all, some spots where the ink stops before the black outline, and there's even a spot where the color goes way outside of the outline. The outline itself is really messy, too; the lines are all squiggly and uneven, and the corners of the crystal aren't sharp... one of the pointed edges is completely rounded. After I paid him he took off to another part of the shop and hollered goodbye from another room, only after we said goodbye and thanked him. When you're permanently tattooing someone's body, you should communicate fully and give them exactly what they're asking for, as they'll have to live with it for the rest of their life. Overall, I'm disappointed with what I got, and with his lack of professionalism. My tattoo is 3.5" long and a little over 1" wide, and I was charged $100. I have several friends who are veterans in the tattoo world, one of whom is an artist in another state, and they've told me I definitely paid way too much for the quality of work that was done. Now I'm going to have to pay more money to get it cleaned/touched up, but I'll be having that done elsewhere. I would like to point out, though, that Uriah did a tattoo for my friend while we were there, as well, and he did an excellent job. My friend is really happy with his tattoo.
