I went last year to get a whole forearm cover-up from Nate. WOW, what a mistake!!!!! I have already begun spending thousands of dollars (which I dont even have!) to have it removed by laser, simply because it is an ugly, misshapen, and one dimensional tattoo that makes my heart sink every time I look at it. He plastered on a design that was not custom to my tattoos that were already there (I thought it was), and it came out TERRIBLE! I have since applied to be on Spikes Tattoo Nightmares and was rejected because they said it was "un-fixable." Similarly, all the shops I go to for other tattoos said it is a horrendous job and that I should get my money back. So I went to try and get my money back and he said "Nah, I can fix that" as he was tattooing another client and did not even get up to look at it. Oh yeah, so the best people in the cover-up business couldnt do it, but you can? What a joke. Never go to this place. Take the extra 25 minute drive down to Tattooville or Electric Tattoo. Waste of time, money, ink, and body space. I am constantly in pain every time I look at it, as it was supposed to be a tattoo that symbolized over-coming a lot of struggles. Now it just becomes one itself.

I went it the morning of my appointment with Anthony, and I was told he got in a car accident and broke his wrist! Mike made me an appointment with Nate, the OWNER of the shop, the next day. The tattoo is horrible! Its right on my forearm too! His lines arent straight at all, and his shading is terrible. He scarred my whole arm and nothing is even. (It was supposed to be a symmetrical tattoo). I should have stopped him as soon as he put on the stencil (it was off centered, but I was too scared to say anything because he was an a**hole). This was my first tattoo and I am very disappointed. The shop, however, has many great artists! If you go to this shop, I think its safe to say that any artist other than Nate will give you a wonderful tattoo.

My boyfriend and I went searching all around NJ for the perfect shop to get our first tattoos at. Friends had recommended Fat Kat, so of course we checked it out. When we asked about the tattooing process (since we didnt know anything about it) the guy at the desk was rude. When we met with one of the artists to draw up our designs, he said hed email them to us within a week and charged us $20. We called after a week of not getting the design and he said hed get it to us whenever he had the time. A month later he emailed my boyfriend the design, which was a globe with some text around it...the globe wasnt even round and the text around it looked horrible! Theyre horribly overpriced and horribly rude. Look elsewhere.

This place sucks. I went here for my first tattoo last week and I have had problems with the tattoo and the service since. I went back twice to get help for the tattoo because I was never given any instructions on aftercare. It was basically please pay and good luck on your own. One of the times I went the dude was rude and cleaned my tat while degrading me saying I'm being too paranoid. (can you blame me?! A tattoo is serious business and I want to make sure I'm doing it right!) and in the process he ripped a scab off and now the color is missing!! I will never come back here. I feel so unwelcomed here it's ridiculous. Despite Michelle, she was the only nice and friendly one.

FAT KAT IS THE PALCE BAR NONE!!! Nate did both my sons portraits and by far EXACTLY CAPTURED their expressions and the accuracy is AMAZING! Ive been to 3 other places and this is one of many TATTOOs I have and by far my prized piece or ART! Everyone makes you feel like FAMILY, the place is SUPER CLEAN and is definatley an ART STUDIO enviornment and they CATER TO EVERYONE! Thanks NATE!!!! The boys look awesome and everyone I have showed the tattoo to....LOVES IT...they thought I scanned the picture on my leg it resembeled the picture so much! Adam

i got my Monroe done there and i was overcharged. i paid 80 bucks, the Piercer was rude didnt tell me how to clean it. i said where i wanted my marking he told me thats not where Monroes were, but he was going to put it so far up it would of looked dumb. not only that he didnt use a big enough bar it got stuck in my mouth and i had to go to tattoo Tony to pry it out with a tool and he put in a different bar for me. never go There, save your money. the shop was pretty though only good thing about that place

My first experience at Fat Kat was a year ago when I got my tongue pierced. The procedure was quick and practically painless! I was pretty impressed with how nicely I healed and decided to go back today with my mother-in-law to get our navels re-pierced. Again, Nate was gentle and quick. I barely felt a thing! I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking to get a piercing from an experienced piercer with a good hand. The shop is also very nice and clean.

The studio is nice..but the artist was rude and made me very uncomfortable. He did what I wanted... which was simple.. but it was way more when it was done than what he quoted me.. he said nothing about after care. Luckily I knew how to care for it..it was my second tat. But it has never healed right and still isnt right, after a year! Got a third at another place with no problems! I dont know if it was cheap ink or what... but I would NOT recommend or return!

Had a great experience when I got my first tattoo back there in October! Michele is an excellent artist and a genuinely nice person. I explained that I was a little nervous and she kept me calm the whole time by chatting with me about music and family and other stuff, and before I knew it I was done! Now Ive got a beautiful custom-designed piece that I couldnt be prouder of. I cant wait to go back for my next tattoo soon!

Place is Amazing. I had an appointment with Nate and he is a very funny and cool guy. Only reason I gave them a four out of five is because My appointment was at a certain time but we didnt start for another 2hours. I didnt mind though because he took his time with drawing out my tattoo. By the way customer service is pretty good there and prices arent bad. Its a very clean shop im going there to finish my tat up today :)

Fat Kat is a solid, all-around tattoo shop. Its not like what you see on tv and they will not hold your hand and coddle you. Ive gotten work by three of the tattooers there and have always left happy. Tattoo shop secret: if you arent obnoxious and want an alright tattoo (something theyre into), the tattooer will be nice to you and wont charge you an arm and a leg.

I went to Fat Kat yesterday June 10, 2015 to get my tongue pierced. And it was quick ad easy. Nate was the one who pierced he was very careful and quick and he explained the aftercare. Fat Kat is a clean shop. My best friend got her tattoo there and it came out nice and was cheap. I like it there and Im going there to get my tattoos
