| - I found this parlor on Yelp with it's great reviews. It is literally a mile from my house, so I thought I'd check it out. I walked in with an image of what I wanted. This parlor is all about tattoos. No bulky aisles of merchandise like bongs, incense.... just the artists portfolios on the counter, and their artwork to look at.
I was greeted immediately, and given to Derek, as I was told he's the best at realistic art. He gave me a quote, and I made my apnt for 4/2/15. I was so excited all day. About 1.5 hr before my time, he texted me asking if I minded pushing my time 1.5 back as his current clients was taking longer. I appreciate he took the time asking, as nobody wants to show up just to wait.
So, my daughter and I arrive. There was great music playing, Derek and Jason were funning around with the 3rd artist, like best buddies. They were all very friendly and laid back. We watched as Derek prepped his area. I paid close attention to his detail to bring clean and sanitary.
During the process we had great conversations, and about 40 min later we were done. I love the job he did. I picked 2 colors and told Derek he can color it however he sees it best.... I trusted his talent. His lines are clean, and the color shading is amazing. I will definitely be back. My daughter's only 14, but her first tattoo is going to be here as well. Thank you Derek, and I wish you the best in life.
