Beautiful Shop Professional Staff Great Tattoo

Okay, first off the shop is beautiful. Second, everyone was nice and very professional! JD did my tattoo and I'm in love with it! He was so nice - kept making sure I was alright and we chatted about him helping to cover up a tattoo for me in the future and adding to this art he did today.
I will be back sooner rather than later!

Clean Professional Top-notch Skilled Patient Awesome

Just returned from an amazing experience at the Tattoo Factory. Clean, professional and overall top-notch! Chris did my nostril piercing and from start to finish was quick, painless and just so nice and FUN. My daughter was tattooed by Joey - who was super skilled and patient. Big props to the awesome woman running the show at the front desk (I didn't catch her name, but should have.) Really enjoyed talking with her. Thanks for a great Wednesday afternoon Tattoo Factory - we will be back!

Great Service Friendly Staff Professional

Adrian was amazing, explaining every step of the process and being very accommodating as I typically pass out after piercings (even though i love them!). I appreciate his kindness and patience with me as he could tell I was nervous going into it but he did awesome. If I lived in Chicago this is where I would go for all my piercings! Thank you for making an impulsive decision worth it (and I love my piercing!!)!

Piercing Friendly Staff Recommend

Dropped in for a piercing or 3 πŸ₯΄.
Jenny first did my double helix as I decided if I wanted to do my septum. She was AWESOME! She answered all questions I had and was very understanding of my nervousness. I would DEFINITELY recommend!

Expensive Overcharged Regretting

Good solid work, but I paid more than twice what I anticipated. My cousin and I got two smallish tattoos that we thought might be $150 total, and got charged $340 each. In my highest estimate in my brain I couldn't imagine more than$200. And i have 8 other pieces. I'm still regretting agreeing to it, but we'd been putting it off for so long, and my cousin lives in Florida and was about to go back, that we just said yes.
We got an X on one of our arms, and the supernatural tattoo. It was less than two hours of work.
I got Frosty and I will say he's light with the pen, so that was nice.
But honestly we should have just walked away at that price. It was such simple work we could have gotten out anywhere. I'm wondering if I should give 3 stars because of it

Friendly Staff Professional Amazing Experience

Walked in on a Tuesday afternoon and was in and out in less than 30 minutes. I was greeted by friendly staff immediately upon entering. Adrian was my piercer. He was so nice and informative. He was extremely professional and I felt at ease. Overall experience was amazing . Will definitely be coming back !

Poor Communication Disappointing Experience

It was very busy, which is great. The gentleman at the front was helpful, I waited to talk with him. He listened to my concept, it was the first time for me were I felt that I wasn't really listened to. He suggested that I send him the concept on Instagram which I am not on, then he suggested I email him all the details. I did send an email, I have not heard back and it has been weeks. I am feeling disappointed in the experience, I went to the tattoo factory to get my second tattoo many years ago when they were across the street. This was not that place.

I read your response and though I appreciate what you said. I did send an email to the first artist on the list. I also sent an email to the man who I talked to when I walked in. I called before I went in and it was suggested I email. I got an email from the artist yesterday, but it was not something I could read it was more code.

Poor healing Expensive

My friends and I came in as walk ins while we were visiting Chicago in early March. Everyone seemed nice and the tattoo process itself was quite easy and smooth.

I forgot who exactly tattooed me as I didn’t catch his name and have lost the receipt from that day. He was very accommodating and even redid my stencil about 5 times until I was happy with the placement.

However, it’s now end of May/start of June and my tattoo, as well as my friends’, have healed super weird. You can see in the first picture, the line work in my tattoo is pretty consistent. Yet, in the second picture, the tattoo is quite patchy and some lines have become blown out and others thinned out and faded a bit. I’m disappointed because I have other tattoos and am aware of how to take care of a tattoo after getting one, and none of my other tattoos have healed this poorly. For one of my other friends, he got text tattooed on his arm, filled in, yet now certain parts of certain letters are completely faded. We paid more than I’m used to for tattoos this size, but at the time I assumed the price would match the quality. However, now that about 3 months has passed, I can’t say I’m completely satisfied with my experience here.

Misspelled Tattoo Poor Quality Unprofessional Behavior

TERRIBLE! Dude straight up misspelled my fellow veteran's tattoo and then tried to fix it the next day. Instead of it looking misspelled now it looks A HOT MESS!!! They told us it would take 3 months to fix (because it has to heal) but no one in the shop would put in writing that they would fix it in three months with no additional charge. It's the name of her military non-profit. She will talk to the owner in the morning.
