Positive: Professionalism, Quality
My wife and I get anniversary tattoos and we went in to see Roary on Fri 7/23. Roary is awesome! The quality of work he does is fantastic, he is easy to talk to and just overall seems like a nice dude. However long Roary wants to be a tattoo artist, he has two customers for life.

I have been getting tattoos from Karissa for many years. She fixed one sleeve and is working on the other. Being a veteran, I have had tattoos from 4 different states now and quite a few tattoo artists, and Karissa is by far the most artistic and professional of them all. Everyone who works there is friendly and there is never a dull moment (minus the extremely painful moments) when you are getting your tattoos. These pictures are the beginning of the new sleeve.

Tosh did a floral heart today on my ribs. It is absolutely gorgeous!! I told her an idea of what I wanted and she drew the design just how I was imagining it! She was able to get me in fast as well. It was my first tattoo and she had a very light hand, kept me calm, encouraged me, and was very professional and clean. I can’t say enough about her!!

Word of mouth brought me to Kawbi Tattoo and I was so impressed with their work that I came back for more. I have seen ink done on other people that was really awful, but at Kawbi their work is top notch. I had major spinal surgery that left me with a very ugly scar all the way down my back and they gave me a gorgeous floral design covering the top half of the scar. Wearing sundress’s and tops is not embarrassing anymore. Everywhere I go people are constantly complementing my tattoos and want to know who did them. Their prices are very reasonable and super friendly owners, staff and artists.
