🔥 JD BROSIUS IS THE MAN WITH THE PLAN! 🔥 I took a break from tattoos for a while because, honestly, I was disappointed with some of the work that had been done on my sleeve. It was started a while back by a previous artist, but it was never finished—and I knew I wanted something more. I wanted depth, and more realism, staying true to what I love most. ❤️ If you know me, you know horses are my life. 🐴 I’ve always loved black-and-grey realism, and when I sat down with JD, I decided to give him the freedom to take my sleeve in the direction he envisioned. And WOW… he is absolutely knocking it out of the park! 👏🏻 JD has taken the time to walk me through his plan, answer every question I’ve had, and most importantly, he’s listened to what I wanted. He’s taking something that I had lost excitement and confidence in and turning it into a piece that I truly love and am proud to wear. The horses, the wings, the window, the detail, the shading—it’s finally starting to feel like MY sleeve. 🖤🐴 I cannot wait to see the finished product when JD gets to bring the entire sleeve together! Thank you, JD, for taking something unfinished and giving it new life. You’re doing an incredible job, and I’m so grateful I trusted you with this piece! 🖤 JD Brosius — the man with the plan! 💪🏻🔥windows, Mermaid's Mark Tattoo Parlor is a clean and beautiful shop, filled with laughter and creativity! Most of all community! Absolutely a shop worth going to!

Maddie was absolutely amazing! No bullshit, very educated and extremely painless with her piercing! She’s not just about making a quick buck she ensures her clients know everything prior to the piercing. Would recommend 100%!

I have been going to Steve Junkins at Mermaid's Mark Tattoo Parlor for several years now, and he has done six large pieces on me — and every single one has exceeded my expectations. His talent is truly on another level. The detail, the creativity, the precision… it’s unreal. He doesn’t just tattoo — he creates art that you’re proud to wear forever. On top of that, he is one of the most professional and genuinely kind people I’ve ever worked with. He makes you feel comfortable, heard, and completely at ease from start to finish. There is never a rushed feeling, never any ego — just pure skill and professionalism. His prices are more than fair for the level of artistry he delivers, and the quality of his work speaks for itself. I absolutely refuse to go anywhere else. I trust him completely, and that trust is everything when it comes to something permanent. If you’re considering a tattoo — especially if it’s your first — I cannot recommend him highly enough. He’s incredibly light-handed, which makes the experience so much easier, and he truly cares about giving you the best possible result. He is not a cookie cutter artist. He will listen to your vision and make it come to life from scratch. Every tattoo is a one of a kind. Every time I leave, I’m beyond grateful and already thinking about what I want him to do next. Steve is not just a tattoo artist — he’s a true professional and an exceptional human being. The shop is extremely clean and is a sight to see. The atmosphere feels like a home for great artists. It is very welcoming. Mermaid's Mark Tattoo Parlor is lucky to have him.

I can not say enough nice things about my experiences getting tattooed by Maddy (@sleepyhallow.tattoos) at Mermaid’s Mark over the years!!!! She provides such a comfortable, collaborative experience from start to finish and she is an absolute superstar at her craft. Not to mention, Maddy’s work on me are some of my most highly complimented pieces. She cares so much about giving her clients a piece that they can be proud of forever and it is such an honor to carry her art with me! Highly recommend for high-quality, long lasting, kickass work. She knocks it out of the park every time. Thank you so much Maddy ❤️❤️❤️

I never thought I’d get a tattoo. Now I’ve been coming to Mermaid’s Mark for 3 years and have over 30 of them. I started working with Lindsay to pay homage to my deceased brother. She made me a believer in the power great tattoos can tell as an external story, to others but also for yourself. I then started working with Madison and Elena. Each of the artists who work here embody every sense of the word. For every tattoo idea, from a sleeve of places I’ve visited to a Capt America shield, they’ve enhanced my thoughts with something that I not only want to keep forever, but can’t wait for the next one.
