Went here for my first tattoo after doing some research online. And I couldn't be more satisfied. I had PJ as my artist and I told him I was nervous, so he pretty much told me what he was going to do and did a small line so I could get used to the feel.
I am so happy with the end result, and anyone that has seen my tattoo so far has been really impressed with how well it turned out and how well...

My favourite tattoo shop in Ottawa :) it's clean and welcoming. Prices are reasonable and they don't rip you off. The ink is crisp and very well done. I love Alisha and Julie's work. Alisha is my go to tattoo girl! She's done 3 of my tattoos now and fixed another one. I honestly get complements on my tattoos all the time! People have stopped me in the street asking me where and who did my... more
Got my first tattoo here from Jamie and it was an overall awesome experience. Definitely not one of those intimidating tattoo shops, the vibe and ambiance is really chill and friendly and the receptionist is super nice and attentive. Jamie's portfolio speaks for itself, but her linework and shading are amazing and I love my piece and get compliments all the time. If I get another one in Ottawa... more
Bad piercing experience.
I had captured bead earrings in for 2 years with no problem, so I wasn't expecting a problem to move a size up. And I decided to try a new style of earring.

The lady at the reception desk was very polite and offered to book me a consult. In our chat before she booked me, she realized what I wanted was very simple and tiny so she went back to talk to one of the artists. Jamie came out and after discussing and showing her the... more
I've been to a couple of tattoo salons in Toronto but none in Ottawa before my experience here.
It's a nice place,quiet and comfy, and the decor and atmosphere is welcoming (Unlike some places in Toronto where I felt "out of place" because I wasn't covered in bold Americana tats). Very chill and no judgy vibe from the artists or receptionist.
Prices are pretty decent, average and they're...

I went in to get a cover-up done after doing A Lot Of research on different artists and shops. The day I went in I spoke to a girl (can't remember her name but I really loved her portfolio, she had a portrait of Edward Scissorhand and it was AMAZING!!) so I wanted to have a consult with her and come up with something to tie in my heritage. My "consult" was her and I talking at the front counter... more
