Heart & Skin

I got a beautiful tattoo by Todd Showdown, and every time I look at it I see more I like about it. He is extremely talented. It is a wait to get in and get your tattoo from him but it's worth the wait.

For the first time ever I had an embarrassing experience during a tattoo where I almost passed out (not due to pain or anything he did) and he was very nice and accommodating. I'm glad he let me get through it and finished the tat.

It's almost healed now and I love it!

I saw Jessica for my first memorial tattoo and it was a phenomenal experience. The detail is exceptional and Jessica brought the photo of my pup Leo to life and thrilled to have him on me for life. Everyone, myself included is blown away by the realism, from the fur detail to the facial expression the entire piece captured the essence of my pup. Jessica also has a soft hand and aftercare has been a breeze. Their private studio is in the heart of old town, quiet and easy to access. HIGHLY recommend! Thank you Jessica!!

Apologies for this review being so long but it is very worth the read. At the time of getting tattooed by Rob (@tymbre_ on Instagram), I had only been tattooed by women. I have had a lot of trauma with men so I was very nervous to meet him and nonetheless be in such a vulnerable situation of being tattooed. But all of my fears and assumptions were torn down by his kind demeanor, his friendly and welcoming attitude, and his utmost dedication to my comfort (regularly asking how I was feeling or what I needed), and he was extremely conversational--right off the bat I truly felt like I was talking to a best friend that I had known for years. I cannot express how grateful I am to him for how safe and respected he made me feel, especially as a queer individual. I had no idea what I was walking into to--I was genuinely afraid--and I walked out feeling more valued as a person than I had in a while, and not afraid in the slightest. Near the end of the tattoo journey, I was starting to break composure and I apologized many a time for being a “baby”. Considering past trauma, I was ready to get made fun of. Yet, he shot it down immediately, stating I was a trooper and that I would make it through because I was strong enough. That doesn’t seem relevant but trust me, those words go a long way, even outside of that tattoo experience because they continue to inspire me to this day. Not to mention the healed results of his work remain bold and impressive. Thank you Rob, seriously. If I could give more than five stars I damn well would…

I got tattooed by Noah and he did a fantastic job. Very talented and caring dude. Everyone there made me feel welcomed and provided such an optimal space to get tattooed. Can’t wait to come back for more.

Got a couple traditional-style pieces done by Noah and not only is the work incredible, but the experience all together was great too. He’s an incredibly caring and talented artist, and everyone in the shop was equally welcoming. I’ve been to a four shops in Fort collins, and this was by far the best. Highly recommend him & Heart & Skin!

Vanessa was absolutely wonderful to work with. She’s an amazing artist and my piece was exactly what I wanted. She listened to me and communicated with me to make my vision a reality. She made any and all adjustments I asked for, gave me input where I asked for it, and made sure I loved what I was getting. Cannot recommended her or Heart & Skin highly enough!

Jessica is amazing. I've gotten two beautiful tattoos done by her. She's kind, easy to talk to, and incredibly gentle. Of all the tattoos in my life, hers have healed best and have magnificent depth and realism. Thank you. I can't wait to get another from you!

A wonderful collective of tattoo artists. I recently had a piece done with Miranda and I can’t get over how comfortable she made me feel. She is so kind, talented and a wonderful person to be around. So incredibly happy with my tattoo. 🙏❤️

I received my first tattoo from Jessica, and the experience couldn’t have gone better! She took the time to create an amazing design that would work with the flow of my body and ensured that I was comfortable through to the end. Jessica was extremely sweet and professional, and her art is amazing. I am so incredibly happy with my tattoo and the care that Jessica took throughout the process!

I had my tattoo work done by Tymbre. It more than met my expectations. Tymbre was professional and thoughtful. He explained every single step before that step was taken. He created a pleasant environment and did great work. I'm very happy with the tattoo and would heartily recommend Tymbre.
