Black & Blue Tattoo

"I spent a long time trying to find the perfect tattoo artist for a very personal tattoo. After a year + of browsing, I came across Gauge, who exceeded even my highest level of expectations. From the beginning, Gauge was extremely accommodating and made sure I was comfortable both physically and mentally. It's easy to tell that Gauge put a lot of thought into the tattoo design, making sure it was perfectly aligned to what I wanted. I just finished getting my tattoo, and had to run home and share feedback with how happy I am about the results as they were just that fantastic! I can't recommend Gauge enough for your next tattoo! I know I'll be going back"

"I got two tattoos here from Filip close to a year ago. Filip was great with communicating from the beginning. I got both tattoos the same day and the first hour was spent working through the designs. It was such a collaborative design experience, he created an initial sketch and modified it based on my input. He was great about taking in my thoughts while also sharing his point of view on the design, size and placements. He was very considerate about pausing for stretch breaks and snack breaks throughout the day. At the end he shared after care instructions which I always appreciate a refresher on even if I already have tattoos. The end result of it all is two amazing tattoos that I love and ones that get an endless amount of compliments from everyone."

"I’ve been tattooed by Jax, Gauge, and Androidoh at this shop. They are all awesome tattoo artist that worked with me to produce art that I love and is meaningful to me. They are professional in every sense and a lot of fun to talk to during a session. Here are three of mine from these artists. They all healed beautifully! I have two more that I am waiting to heal before taking pics. Highly recommend!"

"Androidoh is not just a brilliant artist, but also super chill, funny, and a good (balanced) conversationalist. He also happens to be quick while being careful. That’s a special combo when getting your ribs inked. Appreciate the sympathy."

"I came here for the first time about six months ago to support a friend who got her tattoo from Maggie. The staff was nice and her design came out nice. Going along with her made me think more seriously about getting my first tattoo. I booked an appointment with Sid and he was fantastic. He walked me through the whole process and made me feel very comfortable throughout the whole sitting. At some points it was almost relaxing with the classical music in the background. I am a very anxious person so I'm very glad that I tagged along with my friend last year and was exposed to Black and Blue! I'm very happy with my new ink."
