I used to go to three different places trying to find the right one. Wish I had found this spot first. Consistent, skilled, and they actually care about doing it right.

Used Ordinary Tattoo + Design Studio and was very satisfied with the tattoo shop work. Got quotes from three companies and these guys had the best combination of price and professionalism. Really glad I chose them.

A friend dragged me here and now I am the one dragging other friends. The skills here are on another level and the vibe is relaxed but professional.

The work itself was fine but communication could have been better. Had to call twice to get an update on scheduling. Once they showed up the job was done well but I expected more proactive communication for what I paid.
