"I dont mind driving 50 minutes to get artwork from Ariel. The shop is easy to find, with easily accessible parking. I love the cleanliness. Ariel is friendly and professional, his artwork is highly detailed, and the high quality of his work is beyond extraordinary. He's Attentive and cares about your comfort; I highly recommend him. He is the absolute best!"

"The staff was awesome and I was seeing and helped quickly. I just stopped in real quick to get my memorial string recolor. Dude had a really light hand and didn't feel like he was carving in to Me at all and I will definitely go back there when I gotta get it recolor again. It's not that the artist didn't do good work it's just where I have the tattoo it fades quickly because of how your body turns over your skin on your hands."

"Ariel is very talented,creative, his drawing skill are fablous and on point he is also patient you will never leave out of there without what you wanted! And he very honest if he can't do something he will tell you why. Oh and he's cover up skills are great. I had him do at least 3 cover ups from my early twenties that I just wasn't feeling with turning 40!"

"Kenny did both of my daughters first tattoos. He did amazing work and he was so kind and patient. He made sure they got exactly what they wanted. If they ever get more, we will make the 2000 mile trip back to Kenny"

"Ariel is amazing. I went to him after having a lot of bad experiences with other tattoo artists who belittled me and made me feel horrible about a tattoo that I wanted in memory of a past loved one. I had went to three shops before I found Ariel and I walked around with a line literally just line for a year because I was so scared from a really bad experience from a shop in San Jose where I actually had passed out and was made fun of. Ariel was a breath of fresh air. He was open to my ideas. He was kind and attentive and I got through a whole back piece with no problems. If it wasn't for him I would have never gotten tatted again and I would still be walking around with an awful line on my back. I can not thank him enough for his kindness and amazing work and anyone that wants some amazing art at a reasonable price from a really chill dude, you need to go to Ariel!"
