This is one of my new favorite tattoo shops. They have such a wonderful display of art from all of the artists. Alisa (apologies if I’m spelling wrong) was super friendly and got me checked in. I LOVE my new bee tattoo from Kailyn. She was super wonderful and listened to my preferences. I will be coming back here!

I got my first tattoo ever here by Jay. He's absolutely amazing and so communicative. He talked me through the whole process and answered any questions I had. If he was tattooing over a section that might have been painful he gave me a heads up. His skill as an artist is great too! I absolutely love my tattoo and the colours are gorgeous ❤️ The shop itself is so cool and inviting. Each artist has they're own station persolized to them and the music selection has always been a hit. Jay offered to change it if I wanted something else but I was vibing with every playlist or song that was put on. I've recommended this shop to all my friends looking to get tattoos because they have such a wide range of talented artists.

probably the only tattoo studio where i’d be happy to be tattooed by any artist in the studio. seriously, every single one of them is incredibly talented! i’ve gotten tattooed by Frankie and Kailyn and it’s been such a great experience each time! Kailyn is doing my anglerfish (currently unfinished but it still looks amazinggggg as is!) and Frankie did my Hieronymous Bosch creature on a walk in weekend. the whole staff is so so sweet and lovely, what a welcoming environment. can’t wait for my next appointment

A lovely place! Great for queer folks and full of them! Safest and happiest I've felt in a long time. Frankee Graves did an AWESOME job on my partners tattoo, and was a lot of fun to talk with! The other folks there were also super friendly and welcoming and chatty! Would happily come again and get something else!

I could not have asked for a better experience at Unkindness. The store vibes were immaculate, and I came in with no appointment, but the artist Mandi was available all day so in an HOUR she drew this up. I’m genuinely so shocked someone can be this talented. Thank you Mandi for such an awesome piece of art and listening to my request with such patience and kindness. Booking another appointment ASAP
