SO DISAPPOINTED!! SO UNPROFESSIONAL! I have been following Michelles art for years because I was a huge fan and wanted to get my main piece done by her. I filled out my application with a basic idea of what I wanted, stating that I was super flexible with size, placement, and style so she could let her creative juice flow. I also said that I wanted her to really put herself into it and I wasnt worried about cost. I asked the guy at the front desk some questions about the process, but he was more interested in telling me about his work than helping me with mine so I didnt receive very clear answers. He did say this piece was right up her ally and I was told her assistant would call me and do a phone interview that weekend. 2 weeks went by and I heard nothing so I politely emailed the shop asking if I was missing something and I got a huge long response from Michelle declining my project stating that she had a hand injury and cant do ribs and how she didnt respond because of this and that. I replied requesting that she reconsider since I never even received an interview, stated that I felt it was a misunderstanding, and restated how flexible I was with placement. I got a rude email back from Michelle stating that she went on my Facebook and called one of the people on my friends list to complain that I was being pushy. I apologized if it came of like that explaining that I was just excited and felt I deserved at least an interview. Nothing. I think its immature and ridiculous that she had the time to call that person instead of just me. I never got to speak with her or her assistant. This ended up just becoming a ego fit and she clearly doesnt care about the art anymore. The popularity has gone to her head. So if you still want work done, make sure you walk on eggshells with her and have your Facebook on private.

My girl and I just had the best experience at Sacred Soul!! We were greeted warmly. The atmosphere is inviting, warm and you can tell that Michelle and her Husband (sorry I am terrible with names) love what they do. Everyone we met was professional and kind. I totally fell in love with Michelle... She is a doll!! We came to Soul after a horrible experience at another Tattoo shop (Sideshow!) My girl had a Tattoo done by the owner of Sideshow. They both agreed to have her comeback in a month and finish the tattoo. He was hostile, mean and instisted it was done. He also made a terrible comment that its the best Tattoo on her body. She felt bullied and discrimpcated against! Her heart was broken. Everyone at Sacred Soul made her feel like she was not overacting and comforted her. After a wonderful discussion with them, she has decided to have one of the many talented artist at Sacred Soul finish her Tattoo. Bravo to you all. You made her and my day

Michelle was awesome to have my first tattoo (calf-piece) done. The shop is quite nice, and the whole staff was friendly and informative. She was more than happy to walk me through what she was going to be doing, and was super-personable. The design I wanted had me worried about the end result (lots of small lines) but it looks BEAUTIFUL! My tat ended up taking about twice as long as was quoted (4 hrs total), but she knocked the price down, and ensured my next tattoo will be from her shop. Itll probably just be a little less all at one time. :) *** Review update: As hinted at in part one, tattoo number 2 also came for this shop! Worked with Steven over two sessions on a shoulder mandala. Session one for lining, session two for color and shading. Another solid 5-star performance from this place. The new shop is wonderful, and the artists continue to provide a relaxed setting. Worth every penny paid.

I recently received a cross (7” in length) tattoo from Michelle at Sacred Soul Tattoo located in Renton. This was only my second tat, so I’m not an experienced canvas. I had looked at many crosses, but none of them were “it”. I explained my lack of making a decision with Michelle during our consultation. When I returned for the work to be done I was quite anxious since I wasn’t positive on the type of cross I was going to get. Michelle showed me her cross design and it was perfect! Just what I was looking for, even though I didn’t know it, she certainly did. Michelle is also a perfectionist. She spent significantly more time than what I paid for and it definitely shows. Michelle is awesome and I will definitely go back to see her again. Thanks Michelle for your great work and nice personality!! John Hartsock

Terrible customer service! I called ahead asking about a small tattoo and they said I could just walk in for it. The shop doesnt have any parking at all! So I had to park half a mile down the road and walk to the shop in the rain. I then went in and talked to Shane who was so rude to me I had to walk out! Turns out I was given wrong information about walk ins there... They dont actually do them even tho they advertise for them! Shane proceeded to get very impatient with me and told me to come back in an hour when another artist shows up and maybe if they had time they would help me. I will NOT be going back, mostly because that guy was so rude to me.

This place is a joke. Went in on word from an acquaintance. Upon arriving I wasnt sure if it was actually a tattoo shop as it looked like an apartment, and I dont recall even seeing a sign. Also appeared to me that a bunch of kids run this place as a small group of them were out front smoking and no one was inside actually working inside to greet me. I had a design in mind that was pretty straight forward and I did take the time to look through photos of their mediocre work and decided this place was NOT for me. Not impressed.

Got my first tattoo there recently and I was blown away. Steph designed my tattoo and she is an extremely talented artist. The design she came up with for my concept of a hawk chasing a rabbit was simply amazing. The shop was very clean and had a positive atmosphere that will make anyone comfortable. She made my first tattoo experience memorable and I cannot wait to add some more of her work. I am due for another session with her so I can get a background and I cannot wait. You will not be disappointed!

Got my first tattoo with my son at sacred soul yesterday and would recommend it to any one. Steph had great art work and then helped us to be comfortable and relaxed. We had a fantastic experience the art was sic. The followup instructions are easy to follow and very helpful. It was a fantastic all around experience. The shop was very clean and friendly with both Steph and Michell. If you are thinking about getting a tattoo you need to come here.

michelle does stunning tattoo work it almost looks airbrushed. i used to go here all the time but then stopped because things got a little flaky. i understand life comes up . but it does get annoying as a paying customer...if you can put up with the flakiness late timing and having your appointment booked out months and months in advance the tattoo is worth it! thats why i gave 4 stars. 5 stars for the tat quality. 3 stars for flakiness!
