Found this shop via yelp after the appt my sister and I had with another artist fell through. Called at 8:30p Monday night and talked with Jesse; explained exactly what we were looking for and he said he could do it Tuesday, no problem. Got in Tuesday evening, brought requested samples/ideas and met Jesse. He was excited for our idea and went straight to work on coming up with sketches and stencils. He got everything done and brought us back-even setting an extra chair so we could sit together while the other one was worked on. Jesse took his time, kept us totally entertained the entire time and did everything we were looking for. He didn't try to talk me out of my idea (a white tattoo) nor try to tell me that I would have to have an outline added. He listened and understood I did my research before coming into the shop. And he went with it when I made one small change after finishing the first part of the tattoo. My sister and I already have tattoos but these were in places we didn't have experience with. He didn't try to bullsh*t us and say it wouldn't hurt, he even was sharing his own tattoo stories and how much they hurt and where. It was overall a GREAT experience and I will come back any time (all the way from TX) when I'm ready for another.
Side note-the shop itself is pretty cool. Obviously it has the Frankenstein theme, but it's small and intimate. It's definitely the place to come for an experience, not a quick/drunk tattoo. The walls are not covered in cheap flash art-instead, tons of original posters and art work. It's very clean and sanitary (and so was Jesse). I would definitely recommend to anyone.
Thank you guys so much!!!!
