Devotion Tattoo

Everyone I've met at Devotion Tattoo Boise is really passionate about tattooing. They take their craft very seriously. The staff is very friendly and helpful and all of the tattoers are experts. I got a traditional tattoo by Dustin Fowler that he designed on the spot and it turned out awesome. I meet a lot of people with good taste in tattoos and when I moved to Boise I started asking around, and Devotion Tattoo was almost always mentioned as one of the best in Boise. I highly recommend.

I won’t go anywhere else for my tattoos. From the pristine environment, dedication to sterilization and cleanliness, awesome custom artwork covering all the walls, very fair prices, to the kickass music that everyone can enjoy, Devotion is the ideal place for your first or your hundredth tattoo.

I’ve been tattooed by Matt 5 times now, and his attention to the most minute details is extraordinary (and extremely reassuring when you’re having a permanent procedure done). He’s also great to talk to and has a very calming demeanor. If you’re anxious about your first ink or worried about pain or placement, go to Matt. The dude is confident in his abilities and technique, an excellent listener, and comfortable working with you to make sure it’s exactly what you’re wanting before even getting started. He’ll put you at ease immediately.

Also, Matt is not nearly as “heavy handed” as other artists (i.e. he finds that sweet spot to inject the ink and doesn’t go deeper than necessary = much less pain!). That’s huge, guys. I got my first ribs tattoo yesterday and was a bit worried since I made the mistake of reading horror stories online. Oops. The entire process was almost pain free and it looks amazing today. No redness or irritation like my first tattoo (different artist and shop). I won’t go to anyone except Matt anymore.

As an aside, my husband has had two pieces done by another artist at Devotion—Dustin I think? They turned out phenomenal as well. I got to witness some of Weston’s dotwork the weekend as well. Whoa! You can’t go wrong with the guys here. Highly, highly recommend Devotion for all your tattoo needs.

Wow!! I got my first tattoo done there today and I'm incredibly impressed by the cleanliness and professionally. I've been to several shops with friends while getting their work done and nothing compares. Weston was amazing and telling me what to expect and making sure I was ready and ok. I will be definately coming back!

I AM SO PLEASED WITH MY EXPERIENCE!! If i could rate 10 star i would! The staff was very friendly and knowledgable. the store was impeccably clean and sterile. I got my nose peirced here and i could not be happier with the results. My piercing artist Matty was phenomenal, friendly and genuine. His work is incredible and he was able to help me through any fear i was facing with a new piercing. I reccommend this location to any and everyone. THANK YOU DEVOTION!

Amy did an awesome job making me feel comfortable during what would normally be an awkward piercing! Super clean and professional. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get piercings in sensitive places :)

CONTACT OWNER JON if there is an issue.
My son got his first tattoo (initials on his wrist ) done by Dustin. Dustin was friendly, and explained everything he was doing. My son had such a positive experience that he decided to return and get 2 more small tattoos. Dustin was not working when we returned a few days later. Matt was the only one working. We walked in and spoke with Matt in the am and scheduled an appt for that afternoon. When we arrived, Matt just finished a client. We were the only people in the shop and we waited nearly 40 minutes while Matt went in and out of the shop, not saying anything to us. Matt is very quiet, but a few things happened that gave us the feeling Matt did not want to be there. Both Matt and Dustin had told my son he could return for a free touch up.
When his tattoo healed, we noticed Matt's lines were not as sharp as they should be and the tattoo would need to be touched up, but next time he would go to Dustin.
9 weeks after his first tattoo, my son called Devotion and asked for Dustin. He asked to make an appt for touch up on all 3 SMALL tattoos. Dustin was rude and would not schedule an appt for him to get a touch up. My son was told to walk in sometime ??? The 2 times he walked in before, he was told to make an appt and come back later. I was planning on paying for the touch ups, but my son got such bad treatment from Dustin, he refuses to return Devotion.
UPDATE: OWNER JON DID REACH OUT TO ME AND OFFERED TO TOUCH UP THE TATTOOS HIMSELF. My son declined his offer. I have changed my review to 3 stars instead of 1 because the owner did the right thing. THANK-YOU.

Very kind staff. They took their time making sure our ideas were perfectly done into tattoos. Very patient and we love the way they came out. Would definitely recommend!

I have been tattooed over 15 times in the last 7 years by John at Devotion Tattoo and I always come back for good reason, everytime I feel welcomed and I receive a tattoo that is above and beyond what I originally wanted.
The shop is clean and the staff is very nice, I have also referred countless of my friends and family to Devotion because of the quality of the work that the artists there produce.
Very Very pleased and Very much recommend this shop if your looking to get work done or especially your first tattoo.

One of the best tattoo shops in Boise. Great work ethic, affordable pricing. Their work is both fast and quality. Jon and Weston are fun and no weird rock star vibes. Highly recommended for those interested in traditional tattoo work.

Popped in at 7:00 or so, about an hour before they closed, and they still sat down and put up with my husband's simple and nerdy tattoo. Reasonably priced, and I saw him unwrap the clean material. He asked every so often to make sure Alex wasnt in pain or bleeding too much. Matt was very patient and kind, making sure my husband smiled and laughed all the way through. 10000% suggesting this place to all my friends, and I am going to this place for myself when I get mine. Clean and sanitary, beautifully done work, despite its derpy design, and lived perfectly up to the standards and my husbands wishes. Many thanks to Matt for the beautiful work!
