So my sister and I decided to convince her to get a tattoo with us. It was a half tongue-in-cheek idea, but I researched a few places anyways. Atomic definitely sounded more like our type of place; off the beaten track, responsible, and quality.\n\nSo, last day of the trip mom suggests to US to get tattoos. Fantastic! We drove over to the shop, circled around a couple times to find the little parking lot in back and walked in.\n\nJohnny Vegas drew up exactly what we were describing the first go. Theres a few sketchy pizza places near but we went and got pizza anyways before going back in while he cleaned up and got ready for us. \n\nI paid on the card and he worked with mom first. Him cracking jokes about going slower if mom kept winging actually helped her settle down. Sis and I followed. They all 3 turned out perfect. \n\nJohnny Vegas was neither condescending nor flippant. He made double sure we were sure and then went for it. A couple people walked in while he was working on us and no one else was in the shop so they had to wait a while. But he was responsive to them when they came in.\n\nAll-in-all a great, memorable 1st tattoo for mom, and certainly a high quality experience for sis and I who already have a few.\n\nIf you want no nonsense and quality go to Atomic for certain!\nPlus Mr. Vegas is a cutey. That certainly helps the cause!"^^ .
