Reviewers mention traditional tattoos most often, along with clean lines and tidy work. Customers say the artist works quickly, checks in throughout the process, and pays close attention to detail. One reviewer had a first tattoo there almost eight years ago and returned for another piece, and says the experience felt just as good the second time. Others say the artist made them feel comfortable and well looked after.
