Had a simple tattoo done on July 2 2020. It was just lettering, nothing fancy or intricate. This was my very first tattoo as well, making the experience all the more frightening. The tattoo “artists” main screw up was the inconsistency in needle depth causing permanent scarring. My tattoo was intended to have sharp cornered, boxed letter words which turned out to be uneven and appeared to have rounded edges. Due to the fact of his wrong tattooing procedures, my tattoo has experienced color loss/ fading. While it is somewhat minor, it has still taken away from the art as a whole. I believe this

I have needed tattooed eyebrows for decades. I've had several people do them as I've moved around, but NOBODY has created such perfect, beautiful eyebrows for me than Shawna! I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone who might be worried about how to get such an important feature on your face right - she just seems to have a natural feel for the proper arc, thinckness and balance - this is amazing to me after all these years!

And I would've paid top scary dollar for this, but bless her, her rate is the lowest I can ever remember, she's not interested in gouging people

The environment is super chill. I work next door & have had very pleasant conversations with the owner. She is very accommodating while answering questions about her tattoo school. I plan to get my next tattoo here.

I was tattooed by Andrew of Baker_Ink, who is a student. He was calm, easygoing, had a steady hand, and did a great job. I've seen a lot of his work and for a beginner he's phenomenal. I will be going back to him!

I called today and spoke to Shawna the owner of this establishment, she was pretty busy today but she made time for my daughter and I to come in and get tattoos. She did a fantastic job and went out of her way to make us feel comfortable, safe and welcome. I would highly recommend this establishment if you're in the market for a tattoo or piercing.

Shawna is amazing! I had semi permanent eyeliner done. She explained the process completely before starting and set me at ease. I'm not going to lie, it hurt but not as much as you'd think and not as much as a regular tattoo. She was personable and fun to talk with. I highly recommend her and her makeup procedures.

Shawna Holder was great. An eye for color and placement and a great energy made for a stress free experience, a very trustworthy artist. Although I would never recommend rushing your tattoo artist I was on a time frame and she was able to complete a very clean tattoo very efficiently; something in excited to build on. I even made it to dinner on time!
Thanks for an awesome experience. I will come back.

My sweet little Dala horse was transformed into some kind of collie. Went in for the $40 (plus tip) tattoo day for a deal, but am now looking into the cost of tattoo removal. The tattoo artist, John, didn't look at the picture I showed him and seemed to play connect the dots rather than take my touch up seriously. Super bummed.

My wife and I went to get a aniversary tattoo on our wrists. They weren't centered, the lines looked like a kid coloring outside the lines. The ink bubbles and faded almost immediately. Never even bothered to go back for touch up just went to another shop for a redo

Great artist but the inside is a little sketchy. There are 8 bays and one bathroom. Kind of reminds me of a public restroom yellow on a bad plaster job with a teal trim, not to mention the butterflies and fairy stuff hanging from the ceiling. The artist and work is great if you can get passed the decor and paint. This place would be happening if they cleaned it up and modernized it. Better than a basement but barely.

This has been a looooong time ago but the year of 2013 I got my eye brows tattooed on there by the owner and a flower tattoo with dragonflies on my left leg and they borh were awesome .
I can't remember the owner's name but she was really nice !
She made me feel welcomed the only reason I'm reviewing this is I'm thinking about getting my daughter's ears pierced and going back there !!!

Awful experience. They had a promotion running that if you paid $100 or more they would match it in credit. so I gave my $100 and tried multiple attempts to schedule a session after canceling 3 or more times the tattoo artist, Thomas told me to "not freak out about it because it was only a $100". The money isn't the problem to tell someone who paid you to do a job that it's no big deal you are stealing any amount of money from them is completely outrageous!!

Violet at Angel Ink is the best. I reviewed the other artists' work, and decided on Violet for her lovely line work. I went in for my very first tattoo today, shortly after turning 60 (my birthday present to me!). She was very gentle, explained the whole process to me and was very concerned for my comfort level. She also made sure to tell me of the after care needs of my tatt, and told me she had a 90 day "fix-it" policy. A really, really nice person, and if I ever get another tattoo, I'll be getting it from her. I wish I could post a pic of my tattoo!

Tattooing has been practiced across the globe since Neolithic times and practiced in the US since the Civil War. This type of body art has been around forever and you're probably thinking, I need to get that Maori tattoo I have always wanted and I need a great local place. Okay I'm joking about the Maori tattoo, but this is a serious review because there are some questions we all ask ourselves before we take the leap and choose an artist.

In fact, you're probably looking at Angel Ink on Yelp because you're wondering, "Will they listen to what I want to express"

Had my tattoo done by Bridget. She is an awesome tattoo artist and would definitely suggest asking for her hands down. She just finished an outline tattoo for a DC comics tattoo and I love it.

Nick Pederson took my deposit then disappeared! Several texts, calls and emails- everything from a polite check in to an angry demand- no response. No wonder he moves around a lot! I can't speak to the studio in general but I would trust Nick with $1 let alone my ink.

I just received a tattoo from Jason Greer at Angel Ink. He did great work and he answered all my questions honestly. I've been getting tattooed for years and I'm extremely happy with Jason's work and will be back.

Thank you!

Tattoo. SUPER CLEAN PLACE and I didn't have to drive to Portland! What a nice find... in Oregon City went in and got the tattoo. They were very nice and not intimidating like another shop near there... f'ers. The tattoo looks great, healed fast and now I'm ready to show it off for the summer. Angel Ink was a little hard to find but I got it from a recommendation from my friend, Carrie, who got a tattoo there thanks C. One guy at Angel Ink had purple hair.... very cool! Thanks, Angel Ink!
