From the business
"We offer custom tattoos weather it is a design that you already have or that we design ourselves. We work by appointment mainly, and prefer to do consultation if possible to get a tracing of the area and to discuss and get an idea of the desired art better. If we have times open through out the week we can get in a walk in or two. Appointments require a deposit to secure the date/time. Our shop minimum is $80. We look forward to hearing from you!"

Aaron is awesome. This was the least painful tattoo I've ever had - and it had no bleeding after the fact. I got it ten days ago and it looks fantastic (purple elephant garlic). I will be back!

I absolutely love my tattoo done by Aaron. He is funny, easy going, nonjudgmental and extremely talented. Reasonable pricing for the DSM area. I could tell he didn’t have a heavy hand and just let the machine do what it needed to do. Thank goodness, heavy hands make it hurt real bad. Thank you Aaron!! Will upload photo when tattoo is all finished!!!

Aaron was awesome. I had a cover up job I needed last minute and he worked with me to make sure I could get in. The tattoo looked even better than I imagined it when it was done. Great conversationalist, better artist.

The only place I go to get tattoos Aaron has done pretty much all my tattoos and have known him for a long time he owns the shop and does amazing work and great prices. There is no better tattoo artist that Aaron, he listen to what you want and can customize anything you want. Aaron is professional, light handed, and fun to be around especially when you are in a long session with him. I will never have anyone else touch my skin and in my opinion he is the only option to go to for the best work best environment and best prices.

Love this tattoo place and the owner Aaron is a really good tattoo artist I'd recommend him for anybody, he's really friendly makes you feel comfortable and he listens to what you want, very reasonably priced, he works really hard to get you in as soon as he possibly can, and Aaron keeps a really nice respectable clean shop and clean/ new tools and supplies . I will definitely keep going back to him.

Aaron is the best tattoo artist I've seen. He does great work. Does not sacrifice quality for quantity. I drive two and a half hours each way to get my tattoo.

Great little shop in the heart of the south side of Des Moines. Good atmosphere. Cool art and photos on the walls. Clean and sanitary. My artist did a great job and was also a chill personable dude. I will most definitely come back here again.
