I am pretty easy to get along with and it takes a pretty terrible experience for me to take the time to write a review. But both my wife and I scheduled appointments with an artist and put down a deposit. I had to pull some strings to make sure I had the day off (and explained to them how hard it is for me to schedule an appointment as I dont know if I am working the weekend until two days before that weekend). 50 minutes before my appointment I receive a phone call from them saying they he came down with strep throat and wasnt able to come in. I understand that sickness happen, but he didnt know until 50 minutes before my appointment? Ok, so I rescheduled it. Because I ended up working the weekend I rescheduled for I gave them the required 48 hour notice and rescheduled again. Once again, I get a call one day before my appt and sure enough, he is cancelling again. This time to travel out of state. So I had to reschedule once more, I told her which day worked for me. I get a call some random day a week before my appt and she is telling me to bring in my stuff that day for my tattoo that day...the day wasnt updated in their system correctly and she said i lost my deposit because i didnt give the 48 hour notice to reschedule and that i could come in to make another deposit and reschedule once more. (Because someone input the wrong date in their schedule) I told them that wasnt happening, keep the $25 bucks. Now they have cancelled my wifes appointment and need her to reschedule (she wont be rescheduling)...Absolute nightmare. I will never refer anyone to this business. Just so you know, we are not new to getting tattoos and this was by far the worst drawn out tattoo experience either of us have ever experienced.

The staff are incredibly helpful and nice. I was very impressed with the fact that I was treated like an important customer, not only with the receptionists, but my artist. Lorelei is my artist, and not only is Lorelei very artistically gifted in her tattoo work as well as her individual canvas pieces, but she is also very helpful in bouncing ideas and suggestions around if I need it. I very highly suggest this artist, as well as the shop. Taylor Made, the owner, has even been featured in a magazine, and Johnny, the other artist there, is also friendly to talk to. I highly recommend coming to Colorworks!

Nick did my tattoo, and I honestly cant imagine having it done any better. It looks perfect, but I think the pricing may have been slightly over what it should have cost. None the less, I got would I paid for, and I would recommend ColorWorks!

Fish did my tattoo. Or is in the progress of doing a sleeve. She works quick and does quality work. Has a great knowledge of aftercare. Would highly reccomend this place to anyone. Amazing shop.

Taylor did an excellent job on my tattoo and making sure he did exactly what I wanted done. He made me comfortable the entire time I was there. Everyone of these artists do great work!

Jonny did an excellent job of turning my shell of an idea into something awesome and matched the colors I wanted perfectly. Great artist and very friendly (may even sing for you!)

Went in for my latest piercing and was so impressed. The level of professionalism and their ability to make me feel comfortable is why I will go back for my next piercing.
