Since writing this review, I recently received a message over yelp regarding my review, in which one of the people that have left reviews called me a fag and told me to get a life, that real tattooed men don't complain like little fags.
Since I cannot specifically hold it against the shop for something one of their customers said, all I can say is if this type of behavior is indicative of the clientele that frequents this establishment, I would definitely caution anyone from getting a tattoo here unless someone that uses those types of slurs with strangers is someone you would associate. So if you are one of the many homosexuals that frequents las vegas, I would go elsewhere for a tattoo.
****************-
Went here with my girlfriend to cap off an awesome weekend in vegas. She wanted, essentially, a piece of flash on her foot, about a quarter in size, just black. Not even an intricate design. I have the same design on my foot, but twice as large as what she wanted...my artist only charged me sixty, and this shop wanted a hundred.
I wanted three letters in black inside my lip. A five minute job, fifteen with prep work. They wanted to charge me a hundred as well.
We were also the only people in the shop, and they were not working on anyone. There were two artists available, and I even heard the one artist tell the other he didn't want to tattoo anyones lip, which is when he quoted me one hundred dollars for the piece.
Now I understand that it is vegas and you're going to get charged a premium, but this place is off the strip, and tattoos could not be simpler than the ones we wanted.
We probably looked like two drunk people just getting a tattoo on the spur of the moment, and I know tattoo shops charge people more if it is just a piece of flash they are getting and will not be return customers, and also because they are an annoying demographic to deal with. However, I have friends that tattoo, and I am heavily tattooed myself, I know when someone is trying to pull one over and take advantage... and that is exactly what happened at this shop. Maybe it was just those artists and I came on a bad day, but I would not recommend this shop to anyone next time I am in vegas.
