I just had my first tattoo - the Simba cave painting from The Lion King - done by Brad, and I love it. He was precise, made sure I was okay throughout the whole process, and just a really nice dude. He also let me watch him open the new needle from its individual pack, as well as put on fresh gloves many times as to ensure the overall cleanliness/sanitation of the process. My piece of advice for people wanting tattoos (in general) - know exactly what you want before going in. Dont just have a vague idea in mind, know exactly how you want it and where. If its a custom piece, draw it up /yourself/ or have an artist friend do it BEFORE going in to have your tattoo artist try to see what you have in mind. Because they dont know whats all in your head, and you probably cant convey it all properly unless you have a reference FIRST. A permanent piece of art on your body is not something you should plan half-assed, because then youll end up spending more money getting it redone because you werent exactly sure what you wanted. Think on it for a few months at least, have all of your own references ready, then make the appointment, and they will help you out the best they can. Tl;dr? Basically, heres some advice: know exactly what you want BEFORE GOING IN. Have your own references, especially its a custom piece, so the artists dont have to guess what you want. Overall about the parlor - Brad did an amazing and thorough job, all of the staff were friendly and easy-going, and it was very clean. Ill definitely be going back to Brad for my next tattoo(s).

I went in search of a local tattoo location. Block Monster Tattoo was convenient for me without the hassle of downtown Fburg parking. I stopped in on Saturday to talk to someone about my design and went back on Sunday for the ink work. I was impressed and very satisfied with the finished work. Thank you Brad! This is a place that I would recommend to my friends and I have been since I walked out on Sunday. Place is CLEAN, friendly staff who answered any and all questions that I tossed at them. The rates/cost is very reasonable. I will be going back for the other work that I have in mind.

So was looking for a shop to fix an unfinish tattoo. I was waiting for one artist. It was Brad I believe. The desk was nice and said "Wait, right here, Ill go get him. I know he aint doing a tattoo." So I waited, and waited and waited...I ask the guy at the desk what is taking so long? After 45 minutes, he finally came down and didnt even answer any of my questions. Supposely this a recommendation. I would not recommend this place because of lack of customer service. That just shows they only care about their time and their money.

I went in with something in mind and Brad only pulled things off the computer instead drawing something up. That should have been my first sign that this was not who I should have do my tattoo. He ended up showing me something similar to what I wanted and it came out looking like something my 6 year old niece could draw up. . He didnt do any detail at all and charged way to much. Now Im stuck having to get ít redone.

While on vacation my mother and I got matching tattoos. We drove around for an entire day from one shop to another. This was our last stop. Corinne took the time to look at a few pics and quote us.. price was good and her vibe was good. We made appointments for a few days later. Her work was amazing and she was able to give us exactly what we asked for.

Ive been seeking an artist to portray a portrait image. I searched around and Amanda at Human Canvass really did a wonderful job. I love how it came out and my wife an daughter absolutely love my new tattoo. If you are seriously considering getting a high quality professional tattoo I would highly recommend Amanda at Human Canvass.

Amanda did great! I sat for five hours and she didnt miss a beat. She doesnt have a heavy hand at all which was very nice. The whole staff was very professional and didnt make any rude comments like you will hear in many other shops. Go see Amanda for your next tattoo she is up and coming!

Brad did my first tattoo in 2008 and its still the best decision I could have made. My mother and I are going in for another and I would trust no other place! Block monster 100%
