I've had nothing but good experience with this shop. The artists are all very friendly and upbeat, and my artist Paul is amazing. I've gone to a LOT of artists and shops, and nothing compares.
A lot of shops i've been to have a pretentious atmosphere to them. this place is really relaxed and inviting. i've always been met with friendly chit-chat and genuine interest in the art i'm getting in my skin. you can tell there is a lot of love going around, the artist are all very dedicated-it's more than a job to them.
i can't speak for the other artists, because although they're very friendly i've never personally been tattooed by them. but Paul Ruiz is incredible. i'm very picky and he's never shown any hint of frustration with me, he's always excited to get it PERFECT. he loves tattooing and it shows. he's very very good. his style is really unique and it's *personally* what i really enjoy. he's very good at new-school and realistic styles, as well as traditional art. i'm never going to anyone else.
