Tattoos Customized Art Gentle Touch Comfortable Atmosphere

I have almost all of my tattoos from Nancy, she has a very gentle touch and a comfortable atmosphere. She's drawn or customized all the art herself and I am extremely happy with the results!
Two of my favorites are below
I plan on getting more soon!

Talented Clean Reliable Colorful Beautiful

Nancy is an amazing tattoo artist, she has done 99% of my tattoo work. I have a large piece on my back and 2 sleeves and a few smaller pieces, all done by Nancy... she is super talented, clean and not heavy handed. she does awesome line work and most of my work is very colorful and after many years still looks beautiful. she's super reliable and super clean. honestly I won't let anyone else work on me... I highly recommend her and have several times. totally worth the drive for me... I drive 1.5 hours to see her!

Reasonably Priced Accommodating Least Painful Ink Work

Meagan at Habitat did the cutest fern sprig for me on my ankle. I LOVE it. She was very accommodating for my many ideas and very reasonably priced and it was the least painful ink work ever!!!!! I hope to work with her again soon. Unfortunately an acquaintance I brought didn't have enough money and got huffy even though Meg offered a discount and I offered to help pay. Then she left a bad review. Whatever Cira.

My new favorite tattoo artist. This lady knocks it out of the park. Fast friendly and fair pricing. But most of all, she's awesome at her trade. I'm looking forward to seeing her again. Thank you for the excellent work.

Unprofessional Expensive Poor Customer Service

Just left Habitat confused and bewildered. Had an appointment with Megan at 10:30. She was working on another lady at that time so I decided to run some errands. Come back at noon and she is still working on the client. We get to talking about what I want to get done and she says I need to work on it now because she charges $120 an hour. On her Instagram she says she is up and coming. Figured it would be way less. She proceeded to give an attitude with me. I tell her I lived in Portland for 6 years and tatoo artists who are up and coming don't charge that much. They also do not charge for coming up with the tatoo. The time starts when the needle hits your skin. She began to cry and told me I needed to leave. She is obvious mentally unstable and needs to check her attitude at the door. Do not come here!!

Amazing Artist Great Experience Friendly

I can't rave enough about Nancy. She spent the time to understand what I wanted and then made my tat become way more than I had imagined it. She is the most amazing artist I have had work on me yet. And I really enjoyed hanging with her. She is an amazing soul. Thank you so much Nancy. Can't wait to come back to the island and work more on my leg.
