What Our Clients Say
I've gotten about 20 tattoos from Jeff, and I can't recommend him enough.
He's an incredible artist, but what keeps me coming back is that he's just a genuinely good guy. He takes the time to listen to your ideas, gives honest feedback, and makes sure you're happy with the design before he starts. More than once, he's taken a rough idea I had and turned it into something way better than I imagined. He is also very reasonably priced.
The quality of his work speaks for itself. His attention to detail is amazing, and every tattoo I've gotten from him has exceeded my expectations.
Jeff and I became quick friends after my first session. That's probably the biggest compliment I can give. If you're looking for someone who's talented, professional, easy to work with, & truly cares about his clients, Jeff is your guy.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
-Anthony R.
Highly recommend Alex for all of your tattoo needs! He has done several pieces for me over the last 3 years. His work is phenomenal and truly speaks for itself. He is professional while still making you feel comfortable during your sessions.
-Amber B.

-Jason O.
Jeff is a great artist and very reasonable in price. He takes a lot of pride in his work and does one hell of a job. He is also a very respectful guy, highly recommend!
-Austin S.
Jeff has been doing my tattoos for 15 years. He’s too good that when he moved from my area to open up this location I drive near 2 hours to come see him. He will never disappoint.
