I paid $40 for Roni to draw a sketch of a mermaid before tattooing it. I gave her one picture for the face and another picture for the body. The face was supposed to be drawn with a half smile while the original picture had a pout. The sketch Roni drew had the body of the picture that was supposed to be used for the face only! Her idea of a half smile was the original pouting lips with curves on the edges, kinda like the Joker in Batman. I nicely asked her to start over, and she told me to take my pictures and go elsewhere. She was quite rude, and both she and owner Jeff Cornell refused to refund even a portion of my money. The picture of the face I provided was computer animated and perfectly symmetrical. Ronis sketch was glaringly asymmetrical. I chose Roni because I particularly liked 2 tattoos in her book. I later saw 1 of these 2 tattoos in a portfolio at another tattoo shop! Unless you want something simple or a copy of a picture, dont use Roni. If a customer has a problem, the owners attitude is, I dont care.

A huge thanks to Hidden Hand Tattoo for being so easy to work with. They answer their emails in a timely fashion and really work with you. I got my very first tattoo about a year ago and Andre turns out that I didnt probably takes the best care of it. There were faded areas and it needed a good touch up. When I called to schedule my appointment for the touch up (of my relatively small tat) I was informed that touch ups can be done for free within 6 months and I was near the year mark since I had gotten it. When I arrived at my appointment my artist was friendly and asked lots of questions about how I cared for it previously and felt bad and apologized. I was given a lot of instructions on how to properly care for my tattoo during the healing process and when I went to go pay for the touch up they told me it was on the house! You dont get much for free in Seattle so I was super thankful for their generosity and kindness, especially since it was a tattoo in memory of a lost loved one.

I went in here for my first tattoo ever, and while their location was hard to find, the clerk was very helpful and friendly in getting me there. Once I got there, she got me David. He helped me pick the correct font and location, and was very professional. But not friendly. At all. Id expect a LITTLE personality and customer service, but this guy was borderline rude (and actually was rude a couple times) He had no small talk, was very disinterested in what I was doing, did nothing to prepare me for what was going to happen (I had told him it was my first and that I was a bit nervous,) just did his job and got me out of there. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the facility and the precautions taken by the artists. I was not impressed, however, with how he dealt with me as a customer, and it will keep me from coming to this location again. I expect to at least receive SOME customer service, as I feel Im friendlier to the people I shout at as a lifeguard.

A friend recommended Ronis work, and after seeing her portfolio and talking about the design over a couple emails, I knew she was going to be the right artist for my first tattoo. When I arrived she was quick to set up, and took the time to talk to me about the process and expectations and to make sure we were on the same page. Through the tattoo she was an easy conversationalist and answered my questions and worked quickly and carefully. The tattoo looks spectacular and gets a lot of compliments for her ability to replicate the detail and style of the art. When I know what tattoo #2 will be, Ill hire Roni to do it again. The shop has a really comfortable vibe and style. Clean, colorful, and organized. Its easy to get to and find, and is open at convenient hours. The staff I dealt with was all upbeat and friendly. Ill be recommending them to people who need a tattoo parlor that does the job right. -Dan

After having bad experiences at several other shops I found Hidden Hand. After looking at their website and portfolios I determined that I wanted to get a tattoo done by Jeff. I sat down with him for 20 minutes and explained what I wanted. I had some scheduling issues that the shop"s management staff handled promptly and professionally. Jeff delivered fantastic art work that incorporated everything I wanted and more ideas which I loved. My tattoo was a partial cover up and memorial tattoo. The tattoo Jeff delivered was so thoughtful that when I saw it for the first time I was in tears. My family, friends and I could not believe the art he was able to produce. Thank you Jeff. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone.

I stopped by on a whim when I was staying in Fremont, and was able to get a next day appointment with Marco. The shop has an incredibly welcoming vibe, and I was immediately impressed by how clean, bright, and personable the space is. I gave Marco my idea(s), and he said he would get something drawn up for me. When I arrived for my appointment I fell in love with what he had drawn up.... It was better than what I had in mind! He was very efficient and professional, and I left so stoked on my new ink. Id highly recommend this shop, and intend to go back on my next Seattle visit!!

Only got some linework done here and the artist was rude, patronizing, and unpleasant over all. Do do just linework on my arm, i had to lay down and stay perfectly still, or else hed stop all together and scold me. Conversation was awkward, as he said 2 things to me the entire session(excluding scolding and introductions), and he was 25 minutes late because he had to take a "smoke break." How name is Chad and he is the sole reason why I will never return to this shop. The 2 stars at just for the general ambiance of the store. One bad artist shouldnt ruin the entire store.

I cant say enough good things about this tattoo shop. To start, the atmosphere is beautiful and has many varied and unique decorations, not to mention friendly staff working there. I got my tattoo done by Marco Sullivan. The design is of two large rose blooms, both on my left side, beginning by my armpit and wrapping around down to my left hip/stomach area, connected by black line swirls. The tattoo is more beautiful than I could have imagined. Marco is truly an artist. If I ever get any work done again, it will be here.

Got my first Tattoo ever with Jamie last week. My wife and I went in with an idea for a Celtic cross and some numbers on my right wrist. Jamie helped us pick the perfect design. The tattoo was on in about an hour. Looks perfect. Jamie is a stoic, detailed artist. Not a lot of chit chat once hes focused in which was great. I just watched a movie on my iphone and trusted him to get it done. Great shop, great artist, great vibe, great tattoo. If I need another, I know where to go.
