| - I was going to Vegas to celebrate my best friend's birthday. I knew I was going to get a tattoo while there but where? I researched on the web and narrowed it down to 4 shops (all of the strip) and started making my phone calls. I'm extremely picky not only do you have to be a fantastic artist I need to know you have experience tattooing people with dark skin. Two shops got nixed because every time I called no one answered, the other one got nixed because I got such attitude over the phone. I had saved Voodoo for last because I liked the work I saw on their website the best along with the great reviews. I spoke with Andrew and he was awesome! I explained my time schedule issues so I wouldn't be able to set an appointment until probably the day I landed in Vegas, he said no problem. I explained the design I was going to get, an Adinkra symbol on my ankle, had a nice chat and told him I'd call when I landed in Vegas. I get to Vegas and one of the girls on the trip decided she would come with me because she also wanted to get a tattoo. Called Andrew told him the day and time we would be arriving. The shop is clean and really calming I knew as soon as I walked in I had picked the right spot. Andrew was so nice, looked at my design then adapted it to really fit well with where I was placing in it on my body, he did my friend's tattoo as well and she was super impressed with his skill and eye to detail (btw she's a graphic designer and has a ton of tattoos). So great tattoo, cool , clean shop, fantastic tattoo artist could it get any better??? Yes it does because when he told us the price for each of our tattoos we couldn't believe it, I thought I heard wrong and needed him to repeat because I couldn't believe it. And lest you think it's because I'm used to L.A. prices, my friend is from Toronto and she couldn't believe it either. I would highly, highly, highly recommend this place and Andrew one of the best tattoo experiences I've had.
