"Johnny was great. This was my first tattoo and had special meaning for me. He helped me with my design and gave me suggestions too. It turned out great-I was so pleased with this place and experience- highly recommend!"

"Johnny did an amazing job with my tattoo!! Very, very respectful and considerate guy. I came in with a design and he helped me tweak it a bit to portray exactly what I wanted. He gave me great advice and was very knowledgeable, I could trust him 100% with the tattoo and will definitely be back for more!"

"Overall a great experience here! Still in love with my tree addition to my arm. John was patient, helpful, kind and clean. Interactive conversationalist with pretty good taste in music. Not to mention his line work was sick. Shop was comfortable and really exhibited his love for tattooing. 10/10 would recommend."

"HIGHLY recommend Historic Tattoo and Jonny. I had a solid experience and I’m super happy with all aspects of my project. Jonny worked with me on a cover-up piece, from the early 90’s, which I wanted to match with a piece on my other arm. He listened to my original idea, layered in his experience/recommendations and from there we collaborated to the end (iterating between and through the final of two power sessions). I’m stoked with the outcome! Couldn’t be happier. Jonny is a real pro and a super talented artist. The shop was also dialed into Covid precautions (e.g. – no drop ins, one person in the shop, masks, sanitizer at the door, etc.)."

"Johnny is the best, plain and simple. I have a total of 5 tattoos, of which 3 Johnny has done. My experience with him I'm convinced is impossible to top, he is patient, understanding, has absolutely wicked designs, and knows how to take care of you. I can't wait to have a full sleeve of his art."
