Best shop ever! I went to other shops before and ReGrEt IT. They are true artists here, not ink slingers. If you want real art on your body, go nowhere else! If you want Clipart ink then anywhere else is good. Thank you for staying true to the art!

From beginning to end Bob did right by me. He took the night before and really went over what I wanted, and when I came in the next day for my ink I knew he had seen the same vision I had. I love what I got, the prices are more than fair for the work done. 10/10 Will be going again as soon as I have tattoo funds.

This place is amazing! I made an appointment for my first tattoo here. The shop was clean, and all the staff were very friendly. Bob had made our appointment, but Rooster was our artist. He explained everything to me up front, made sure to warn me before he started, and always checked in to make sure everything was perfect. I will always recommend this place for tattoos and encourage anyone to go here!
