I have always wanted to get tattoos and piercings, so when I finally had money I started doing research. I heard through the grapevine that Lucky Bird was phenomenal. So I looked up their website and every artist looked pretty amazing. So I decided to go in to get my septum pierced, and then I would book my tattoo. When I got there I was greeted by the manager, Scott, extremely friendly and didnt judge my lack of "tattoos". (Which I have experienced in other shops) I asked to get my septum pierced. So he gave me paperwork to fill out, which is good because it made sure I wasnt high or drunk. Then he had me come back to get the piercing done. He was also the piercer. He made me comfortable. Asked me to sit a certain way in case I passed out, which I appreciated. He then showed me all the tools he was using, how they were sterile and clean. Then we chatted while he went to work. He knew what he was doing and made me feel confident. After the piercing he broke down the healing process, and gave me everything I needed. Then we talked about my tattoo, since I was starting my sleeve. He then asked what I wanted, he listened to what I had in mind and then asked if I had an artist in mind. Which I didnt because all the art work and portfolios I saw, I would have been proud to wear any of these guys art. He then told me Travis Brown would be best for my sleeve and I was down. So I planned my tattoo and came back in a month. When I got their for my tattoo once again the guys in the shop were cool as hell. Had to do the paperwork again, which I didnt mind.Then Travis came in, introduced himself and showed me the stencil. Now since I want my artist to have all creative freedom he got to design it himself. And what he showed me was so good I was excited automatically. He then did the usual, shave but he was trying to put the stencil but didnt like how it was fitting. So he set me down and drew on the tattoo, which I found was pretty cool. Travis was good at talking to me and calming me down since it was my first. When we started it was smooth sailing, we were cracking up the whole time, the guys from the shop would pop their head in to see how it was going and admire his work. Which I liked because it showed that they all had a respect each others art. At the end I was so happy with my tattoo, it was exactly what I wanted. I paid and now I cant wait to get every tattoo possible at Lucky Bird. The best experience was at Lucky Bird. I highly recommend it. All the artist are fantastic, just a good vibe. Im counting the days until I go back. 5 STARS

I had an amazing experience at Lucky Bird. I got my tattoo by Rodd Diaz and, while Im sure the other artists are great too, I HIGHLY reccomend going to him. Its obvious when you meet him how much he truly loves creating art in his tattoos, and it really shows in his work. He is very laid back and very humble about his work. I was nervous when I first explained my idea because I wasnt really sure how to make it work, but he immidiately created an elaborate design in his head and starting throwing in different ideas and details of what would help create contrast, realism, and an overall amazing piece. The most shocking/incredible thing about his work is that he doesnt use stencils! He draws out the idea with a sharpie on you and then after you decide what you want to change, he just takes off from there! (I attached a photo of my tattoo to show how well he did this). I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend going to Rodd Diaz for any tattoo youre thinking about getting! I love my new tattoo!

Lucky Bird is a hidden gem. Whether you are a first timer (like myself) or a regular, the staff here treats you like family. I can say nothing bad about the shop, process, or staff. My tattoo artist was Jeffy who was phenomenal. His attention to detail was exactly what I was looking for and his attitude was so hospitable. I never felt pressured into anything I didnt want and everything was explained in great detail. As others have said the place was immaculate and inviting. I looked at a lot of shops online, I called multiple and sent emails. Lucky Bird responded the fastest by far and didnt have some ridiculous 8 month wait. I look forward to spending more time there as I loose skin and gain ink. I recommend this shop to anyone reading this and will be recommending it to anyone in need of a tattoo. To the staff thank you and to Jeffy you are the man!! Keep up the awesome work you guys rock!

I would like to sincerely thank, Tyler McKinney, for giving me the greatest tattoo I could have ever imagined. He designed a Blk n Gray, Battle Angel Alita custom tattoo that is on my hip/thigh. The piece means a lot to me and Ive been holding off getting the tattoo for over 10 years in pursuit of finding a highly skilled artist in a professional environment. I was extremely lucky to come across Lucky Bird Tattoo. The Lucky Bird Shop itself is very clean, welcoming and professional. They have everything to make you comfortable during your tattoo experience. They take the time to really make sure you are getting exactly what you want as well as educating you on realistic expectations and tattoo care practices. I enjoyed my tattoo experience very much thanks to Tyler McKinney and I cannot wait to get more tattoos from this artist in the future! Sincerely, Dani

I was on vacation in Annapolis, Maryland. I had been wanting a tattoo in memory of my dad for about a year. I wanted to make sure I got exactly what I was looking for. I found four places in Annapolis. I checked them all out before deciding to get it done at Lucky Bird. Lucky Bird is so clean and the staff is great. The shop is filled with the spectacular art work of the artists who work there. Tyler McKinney did my tattoo. He is an amazing artist, who I entrusted to do my tattoo. It took about two hours to complete. Watching this master tattooist work on my tattoo was an incredible feeling. Words can not describe how awesome my tattoo is. Everyone I have shown it to has been blown away. I am going back to Annapolis next year. I am looking forward to going back to Lucky Bird and having Tyler McKinney doing my next tattoo.

I walked in this past Saturday to get two piercings. I had come alone, and was a little nervous. Scott, the piercer, greeted me and started my paperwork. A woman in the waiting area assured me that I would have a good experience, as she had come to Lucky Bird before. She was absolutely right. Scotts disposition put me at ease immediately. He put time and care into prepping me for my piercings, informing me of each step as he went along so I knew what to expect. Everything was organized and sterile. Scott was quick, gentle, and professional while piercing me. He coached me on aftercare and showed a genuine interest in the healing of my piercings. Impeccable staff and environment.
