The Great Wilderness Tattoo and Body Piercing

it’s been over a year since i’ve gone but i was just disgusted by an instagram post i saw made by the owner. instead of staying true to a classic, professional, REAL artist, the owner is using AI to advertise the shop. despite this, i’m not just complaining about AI. i also have had 2 horrible experiences with Chaz. He is notoriously late and unprepared. I got a spine tattoo from him, which was fine even though he was 30 minutes late. i then scheduled a sternum tattoo that he was an hour late to. he changed my stencil without showing or telling me, then proceeded to do a horrible job on it. i talked to him about it and he said he was on a new medication that had weird side effects, which idk i feel like you should just say that in advance. so i trusted him with a second appointment to FIX my chest and he was late to that one too, and ended up spending 8 hours destroying my sternum. idk how but it looked worse. i have literally spent $2000 at removery working on getting it lasered off. never EVERRRR again. braxton was cool tho ✌🏻

I made a deposit to get a tattoo on my birthday and something felt off. I called to speak to Chaz about an estimate on the tattoo I wanted and he didn’t answer so I messaged him on facebook still no answer. So I drove to his shop when they were supposed to be open but the shop looks abandoned. It’s very overgrown and nobody was there. It was 3:00pm and the place was a ghost town. Tried to get my deposit back and not ignored. Definitely DONT recommend

Disappointed to set up my 1st tattoo appointment only for Chaz to show up 1½ late past my appointment. Red flag. Got my deposit back and left. Left a bad taste in my mouth. I was afraid of a review I read 5 months earlier to not happen to me . Really wanted him too tat me looking at his work i was excited. 😌

Very clean and spacious. Great atmosphere . I had a last minute walk-in with Amber. She was professional and fun. Helped me make sure that my jewelry placement would work for me and still be safe. The best experience I've ever had with a piercer.

Great little shop with some very talented individuals. Stopped in to meet with my artist Chip Harris to continue working on a project a long time coming. Clean facility convenient to Warrior Alabama easy access from the highway. Another great experience!
