I went and got my cartilage piercing done by Ian. He didnt use a clamp to pierce it, just stuck the needle through. For a few days after that my earring was bleeding consitantly. Very red and tender. Went back to the shop and they said to just clean it with soap with my fingers. Well your hands have the most germs on them so I used a q tip to prevent infection. On Labor Day the back of the earring came out when I was cleaning it. They were closed so I went to a different piercing shop that was open and the ladies there were wonderful! They pointed out to me how the earring length he gave me was too small and thats why it was bleeding and as irritated as it was. They also pointed out to me and took a picture so I can see how the earring is CROOKED. The front is higher up than the back. Didnt know "angles" were a new thing for piercings!! The girls took the old earring out, cleaned my piercing spot, and put in a longer earring. I have had no bleeding and no tenderness. Feels like I dont have anything there! Ian could have caused me an infection if I just ignored it. Went to fat Katz next day and confronted Ian about my earring showing him what he did wrong and asked for my money back since I didnt get what I paid for. Before he saw my earring he said I wont get my money back and when he looked he kept repeated its not crooked so sorry but it definitely is crooked. Threatened to call the cops on me when I wasnt even yelling, and called me a stupid redneck. Sorry the truth hurts that you do your job wrong bub!

I dont know about the other guys that tattoo here, they seemed they may be pretty good but my tattoo was done by George & he was horrible!! He did not tattoo what we discussed & when asked how we would go about fixing it on the next "paid" session all he could say was "I tattood what we talked about" "we went with the second option." Never discussed any option other than tribal & ended up with a tattoo that looks like a little kid doing his first ever drawing! He doesnt have a clue how to do a tattoo & should never have been turned loose to do permanent art work on peoples body!! The guy in the front in the high water pants told me George is great with tribal & loves doing tribal work so I g to the tribal guy but yet he tattoos some type of shading tattoo & pretends he was asked to do it that way. He was asked to outline a tattoo & continue half way up my bicep & ends up with it on top of my shoulder! The lines he tattooed look like a drunk guy grabbed the gun & started tattooing his buddy.... Took 5 hrs to do what should have taken 2-3 hrs....almost 30 minutes to do one 6" line since he had to go over it 20x to get it straight... Moral of the story is dont let George tattoo you... Maybe he can do a printed out design....couldnt tell you, but horribly sucks at free hand tattoos. Will now be paying thousands to get it removed. Lesson learned thats for sure!!! Would love to post pics if it gave me the option....

So I was skeptical because of some of the reviews but they were honestly few, and there is always going to be criticism. I go in and staff immediately stops talking to engage me. I tell them where I want my tatto, show it to them and ask the price. Its a super simple tat so it was reasonably priced. They asked when Id like an appointment and I said immediately(I had been wanting this tat for the past 4 years). Nick goes, "Well I can do it right now if you want, it wont take long!". I said yes, of course, that was so amazing of him. He sat me down and talked about the placement, and recommended changing the design a bit because he said he wanted it to heal nicely, not like a squished together mess. Some tattoo artists would give you what you ask for and not even give a crap, so I love that he worked with me to make sure it would come out great. While working on my tat, hed tell me at what point of the tattoo he was working on.....I loved that! It was reassuring and very kind of him. All in all my tattoo come out BEAUTIFUL and clean, Im so pleased and cant stop looking in the mirror❤️

I came to Fat Kats to have a tattoo designed, and I made an consultation appointment two weeks from then to see their artist Dan. He canceled my appointment and told me to make an appointment to get the tattoo and then Id get to see it drawn. Then he canceled my appointment again 2 week later. For the third appointment, I was told to come in that Sunday on the 19. I didnt realize that the 19th was a Saturday, so once I realized the confusion, I called and left a voicemail. No one returned my call after a month. They kept my $60 down payment and never called me back. They do good tattoos, but their customer service and professionalism is far below average for any business.

I had a valid issue at the shop getting the right information and having someone help me. Much to my suprise the manager contacted me personally to straighten out the misunderstanding. Because of his professional attitude in dealing with me and attempting to straighten out my bad experience it turned the experience around. I will be going back and giving the shop another try. The manager owned what went wrong and made no excuses about it. That cleared things up on my book. I am looking forward to my next visit.

I have been getting tattooed for years and have been to multiple shops in Ocala. Nobody compares to the level of professionalism and customer service here. The art work that some of the artists provide is the best within 100 miles easily. Every time I come into this shop I am always greeted by friendly people, that are attentive to my needs. I dont trust any other shop in Ocala to do my work, all you have to do is walk in to tell its a clean place. Thanks so much Fat Kats, you guys rock!

Went to tattookah, they screwed up my tattoo went to Dan loose at fat Kats and he happily offered to fix the mess up. Willing to go out of his way,to draw something up that will cover and fix there mess up. Awesome prices. Word.of advice.. waiting is worth it. If u can do a walk in there might be a.problem.. always check someones portfolio before letting.them.tattoo you. Had I of.been patient Id have just waiting for Dan to that me. Deaf would recommend fat Kats. Most of all Dan Loose.
