Bad expierience leo was rude and didnt even give me time to tell him what i wanted super inpatient said he had time to do it than while doing it he said he had to hurry because of another appointment. Super unprofessional if your gonna tattoo someone make sure you give them wht they want regardless walkin or not. And fix ur attitude buddy

He did a good job on the tattoo but when you give him a picture of the tattoo and tell him this is what you want and he changes the color which is not what you really wanted. I wanted the same color as the picture and told him that but he chose to use different colors. The tattoo is nice but it is the wrong color so now I have to find someone who can fix it and because he used different colors it does not mean the same thing. He use yellow instead of bronze and the rose is also a different color than what was in the picture. I think he need to listen to people a little better. I do not think I will be getting anything else from him. His work is good but this is not what I wanted at the time it looked right but later I found it was not. The tattoo looks good but not at all the same thing that I showed him

Would love to give more stars, but still have not gotten work done here. I have come twice and not been able to find any parking within 2 blocks of the shop.

This review isn’t about the tattoo quality. It’s about the customer experience (sunday evening). I wasn’t given the information I asked for, and the design folders were taken out of my hands when I tried to look through them. I was also told they were “busy,” even though no one was being tattooed. Maybe my grunge aspect, my European accent, idk. I’m sharing this so people know what to expect. Overall, it wasn’t a good experience.

I recently had the pleasure of getting my first tattoo from Leo, and I couldn't be happier with the experience and the result. Leo tattooed a fist-sized astronaut and diving helmet on my thigh, perfectly capturing everything I wanted in a tattoo. The design symbolizes so much for me, and Leo's artistry brought it to life beautifully. Leo was incredibly caring and attentive throughout the entire process. He ensured I was comfortable and addressed all my needs. Despite the inevitable pain, Leo was quick and efficient, pausing whenever I needed a break. His professionalism and empathy made the experience much more manageable. Thank you, Leo, for your exceptional work and for making my first tattoo experience such a positive one! I highly recommend Leo to anyone looking for a talented and considerate tattoo artist.
