Cloven Tattoo - Columbus Ohio's Premiere Tattoo Studio - Walk-Ins Welcome!

I was super excited to get this piece, and Carter did an amazing job! His artistry and professionalism is next level! The atmosphere of the shop is extremely welcoming, 10/10 experience, can't wait for the next one.

Ao did my tattoo today. I claimed a flash on his Instagram like two months ago but due to scheduling problems on my end I just got to it. Ao was awesome and so kind. He checked in frequently, explained his ideas thoroughly and we had a really nice conversation throughout. His pricing is very fair as well for the level of skill. This is my second tattoo from him and I would definitely get another. Thanks king! The only downside is one of the other tattoo artists and his buddy were a little obnoxious and because it’s a small studio it’s basically a shared conversation with everyone tho they’re moving into a bigger space so hopefully that can help with privacy especially with tattoos in more intimate areas. I got mine on my thigh and was low-key flashing everyone lol.

Hands down my best tattoo experience to date. Chris Kirkpatrick did my tattoo. Her design is absolute perfection. She made me feel totally comfortable, letting me know exactly how the process would go, where she would start, what to do if I need to move, take a break, etc. She made it a total collaboration from design to placement to colors in such a comfortable way - I’m the kind of person who would normally say “if you think it looks good, that’s fine with me” even if I thought I might prefer something different, but she did such an awesome job and I never felt like I couldn’t speak up about what colors I liked, how I felt about the placement, etc. Parking was easy, everything was super clean, the shop vibes were totally relaxed, and my tattoo is absolutely gorgeous. I’m still a little in denial that I get to rock this incredible artwork from now on! I will absolutely be coming back whenever I can squeeze into Chris’ schedule for more fantabulous tattoos. Thank you so much!

Got a half sleeve from Carter over the course of two sessions in the fall of 2021. It was my first tattoo so I was pretty nervous, especially considering it was so visible being on my forearm, but it was a great experience; the studio was clean and everyone was very friendly. And, perhaps most importantly, the tattoo came out incredible. I spent months researching artists in the Columbus area and I provided Carter very limited guidelines and he was able to produce a masterpiece that came out better than I could have imagined. I couldn’t recommend Carter or his shop more.

I visited Haley for my first tattoo this week and it was all around a great experience. The studio has a great relaxing vibe the artists are really nice. Haley was great at walking me through the process and turning my ideas and pictures into a piece of art. I came to her after finding her on Instagram (@fauxpavvs), her animal and botanical illustrations being the thing that drew me in. I'm looking forward to coming back and getting more work done in the future.
