I had my snakebites done here and they came out fine, however when i had him give me an extremely simple wrist tattoo it all went to hell. I dont think he really listened to me or respected the sketch i brought in, which was simply my sons name and a few lines and some stars and a treble clef. I thought it was fine until the swelling all went down and I saw what i was Forever stuck with, the lines are all completely uneven and different thicknesses, there are clearly spots he missed filling in, and my sons name isnt even on one of the lines like it was supposed to be! So for the past few years ive been stuck with this awfull mess of a first and Only tattoo, and am going to have to get a cover up, and have it redone by someone who will actually show that they are listening to me and make it as beautiful as it should be on my skin!

Bob himself is a great dude, the shop is well kept, and overall has a positive atmosphere. As for the actual tattooing, I must have just caught him on an off day because Im honestly blown away at how poorly it turned out. He tattoed sections I asked him to omit, missed all sorts of lines, and failed to close notable gaps. I refuse to bash anyone on a review, nor have I ever written a negative review, but I feel like it is just incredibly important to be thorough about your desires. All other reviews seem to indicate that he really is a class act. Perhaps he was just disinterested in my design. Perhaps Im being too harsh. Im just not too into the fact that I will look at something I didnt want on my body for the rest of my life.

This has to be one of the most amazing tattoo shops Ive ever seen. Redbeard does all kinds of art, including my first tattoo. I was a nervous wreck before I got it done. Before he started, he made sure I was comfortable. He has an amazing spirit and makes you feel happy, not afraid. It was like needles stabbing your back at first, then you eventually get use to it. He does take breaks often so you can relax. Did I mention how clean he is? He is very sanitized and make sure to get the job done after all the money youre spending. I love my tattoo. Wouldnt go anywhere else.

I just went to red for my nipple piercing last night!! It could not have been more perfect! Ive gotten many piercings from my belly monroe nose and diff ear piercings and none of those artist were as kind and took there time to make sure it was done right! The breathing technique he coached me through the piercing with made the pain comoletely tolerable! This man KNOWS what hes doing and he is amazing at his job! I will from nowon be a loyal red beard customer! Thank you so much again red!

I went to Red Beard for my sons name on my collar bone. He not only made me feel comfortable but he also did an amazing job. He was a conversationalist and definitely knew what he waa doing. I didnt even feel a thing! I RECOMMEND HIM TO EVERYONE AND ANYONE! I PLAN TO GO BACK NEXT WEEK! GIVE IT A CHNACE. WONT BE DISAPPOINTED THANKS RED BEARD! APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND EFFORT

He was very kind and concerned about how and what I wanted for my tattoo. Even gave me advice on where to put it since Im only 17 and growing up still looking for a career. The place was clean and looked like a cool tattoo shop. He also did a great job and kept checking to see if I was okay. His tracing and shading was perfect for my tattoo. I LOVE IT

Just got the most beautiful Pinup done. He really did a wonderful job bringing her to life. She is even better than the picture I gave him. I will definitely be a return customer for anything I want. I called for an appointment and was scheduled the next day. Im so happy with the work he did.

Ive had my tounge and anti eyebrow done by red and I was disappointed both times. My tounge ring wasnt even in the center and he almost pierced my anti eyebrow vertically instead of horizontally, thank god I asked to look in the mirror before he stuck the needle through

I went in a couple days ago and got my cartilage pierced for the first time! It took seconds with everything the payment and the piercing. I am sooo happy with where it was positioned on my ear and I didnt even have to say anything. 10/10 recommend!!!

I have gone to plenty of tattoo parlors before and none received me the way that Red did! Insanely well done tattoos and an extremely friendly owner is the recipe for a successful business. The shop is clean and comfortable, feels just like home!

I got my belly button pierced at Reds shop today, and it was by far an exceptional experience. He is such a personalable guy, not to mention amazing at what he does, but easy to get along with. Truly a down to earth kind of man. Thanks so much!!

Red Beard! What a solid fella. Super inviting personality, clean shop, and a tremendously holistic view on the whole tattooing process. I have been to quite a few shops in the area now and will surely be frequenting the Beard. Thanks mate.

Abby Rachel

He can take any picture you want and make it exactly the way you want it Also, Red is a nice dude, has pretty chill collections, and definitely takes pride in his work (which he should) since he gave me such a beautiful piece of art :)

Being only 15 he still tattooed me, only shop in the area that would do it. Clean and sanitary, many amazing designs, tattoo came out very well. Focused on the tattoo, wasnt distracted, might have to go back again.

Got my tongue pierced! A small pinch at first and as many timess I got it pierced never thought I will not feel that sting feeling after the first day. Plus being able to eat solid foods. I am just a happy camper!

Justin Karstens

The shop was cool. Stopped in for a laser removal and the prices were great. Trixter was great to work with. I have had work done in shops all over the country and I would recommend this place.

Alicia Elkins

Walked in with the intention of getting 2 piercings. Waited maybe 10 minutes and got both done. Incredibly kind and very well prepared. Definetely coming here for piercings and tattoos again!

Marcie Fleming

Bob does an excellent job! He turned the photo I wanted done into a masterpiece... Always made sure that I was okay & happy with his work... The detail was awesome! I recommend 100%!

Shaunie Martinez
