I have several tats from many places, and I have to say that Bamboo was the most unprofessional place I've been to. I read a couple of the 1 and 2 star reviews and my story is similar. The owner Todd needs to get his act together. I requested a piece and paid my deposit, and when I finally came after a long wait my "custom piece" was half finished and literally had a picture cut out of a magazine rather than drawn up. He just said don't worry it's just to give you an idea. ARE YOU SERIOUS?? then he let me know it would be about $1200 as it was such a big piece and it would look exactly like the design. I thought what design??? half was glued on.
I let him know it wouldn't work, and left ASAP.
I can ramble on and on, but remember when it comes to putting on pieces on your body for life, you deserve the best possible service and honesty.
I could name several other places I've been that have this but you should do your own research, but beware of this place.
