| - This has been my best tattoo experience so far! I can't say that my body is totally covered, but I have about 20 tattoos, mainly consisting of phrases and words in black ink. Saying that, placement, alignment, and clean lines are most important to me. My appointment was with Amy Ausiello. She was suggested to me by someone on a local online community group (Nextdoor). I had to put a deposit of $50 down, which is standard for a tattoo place (this ends up coming off the total price of your tattoo). The one AWESOME thing about this shop is that they take credit cards, online and in-store. Most tattoo places I've been to do not. You can even put a tip on a credit card. Woot! I had to make my appointment about 2 months in advance, which, again, unless you walk in, is another standard thing I've found with good artists. The day comes, I get to the shop, and the reception I receive when I walk in was positive and cheerful. The women working in the front were chatty and personable. When Amy was ready, I went back to her immaculately clean station. All the stations are completely closed off. A wonderful thing if this is your first tattoo, or you need to be discrete when getting tattooed in a more private area. Amy was super efficient, a stickler with placement, and easy to sit for. I got my tattoos on the back of my arms, above the elbow. She gripped my arm tightly, and I was put in a comfortable position. This was nice because it limited the possibility of me moving. The tattoo turned out beautifully! I couldn't be happier. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thanks Amy!!!
