I have been wanting a floral sleeve for years. I finally built up the courage to get it done and decided to go to Jess at the Mandala Effect. We set a design appointment prior to my tattoo appointment. I came in a few days later for the actual tattoo! I was so happy with the entire process from start to finish. Jess and Ava, her apprentice, were great. It felt like a was just hanging out with a couple of girlfriends. Time flew by. The detail and precision in Jess’ work is amazing. I will happily come back if I decide to get another piece done or need some touch ups.

I had the absolute best time with Jess. She made me feel so comfortable and I can tell she really wanted to make things right with the visions I had. We started from a gap filler idea that turned into such a beautiful piece of art. I had so much fun laughing and yapping with her, she really is a girls girl. Highly recommend in general but for women who are nervous about their first tattoos or have anxiety over certain things, Jess will make you feel so heard and welcome you with open arms. Thank you so much Jess for being a sweet sweet woman. I appreciate you!

Kaylie is amazing, I was nervous about getting my first tattoo and she was so kind and supportive of my concerns, answered all of my questions about the design and process, and was overall so fun during the appointment! The tattoo shop is very clean and a comforting, nice environment to be in. I highly recommend The Mandala Effect and Kaylie!

I got a piece done by Mikey at the end of July and had a great experience. He worked with me to create the design, and I’m absolutely in love with how it turned out. He made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. I also really just loved the vibe of the studio. After I got the piece done, I had multiple people ask me if it was fake, because the line work was so precise and fine. I will definitely be booking with Mikey again in the near future! :) First photo is immediately after the piece was done on July 31, second is on October 4 and healed.
