Red Octopus Tattoos

Got my first tattoo with Fae and she is the absolute sweetest and patient person ever. I was scared and she was very gentle. Everyone there was professional and kind. We will be back.

I had and Eagle that was faded and needed to be restored .
I had Terrence do the work he did a Great Job , he knows this business very easy to communicate with I would recommend him highly .
Thank you,
Mike S.

I got my first tattoo here (by Shea). The shop was clean and had covid protocols in place (hand sanitizer upon entrance, social distancing, masks required). Everybody was nice and helpful. Shea was really awesome! He did a tattoo for a friend of mine 2 years ago and he was super nice - answering all of my questions (which were a lot because that was my first time ever in a tattoo shop). I knew if I ever got one myself, he'd be my artist. He responded to my emails quickly and made me feel very comfortable! I highly recommend him and this shop!

This was my first tattoo!!! I was so nervous and had done a ton of research on shops to check out. A coworker recommended red octopus in Crofton and I am happy she did Chris, my tattoo artist was amazing! It took him 20 minutes and shockingly it did not hurt. The shop is very clean the the customer service is awesome! I will be returning for my next tattoo.

Visited to get my nose pierced as my nose ring came out and it started to close up. I was very happy with the service. Very busy make sure you are not in a rush. Overall I am very pleased would recommend

We were able to get tattoos on a walk-in. Everyone there was super nice and friendly. Had a very nice waiting area, products for sale and books of the artist’s works to peruse. Is in a great location.

This is absolutely the most unprofessional establishment I have ever had the displeasure of attempting to do business with. I received a gift certificate for my birthday from my husband towards a tattoo that I have longed to get for years. I suffer from physical illness and chronic pain, which I have been dealing with for most of my life. I also lost a young 17 year old girl, my son's girlfriend, to police gun violence. I have wanted a tattoo of a phoenix, for obvious symbolic reasons, for a long time. It took me more than 2 months to get on the books with Patrick. The day of my tattoo the schools closed and I was asked to reschedule as apparently there was no contingency plan for his children. I was told I would be sent some potential reschedule dates and never heard back from him. I reached out to inquire about rescheduling and still never heard a single word. I then inquired as to an appointment with Shea. I was told to email and that his books would open February 1st. I emailed and never received a response. I went into the shop on February 1st and asked about scheduling. I was told that he prefers to schedule his own appointments and that he would be responding to the emails that day. Took at least a week for the reply. I then submitted photos for reference and a photo of the area for the placement. I received an email back stating that my reference photos were not his style but that he could do a design of his own. I emailed back saying great please schedule. I have never received a single response. This shop will certainly not lose out on the money I would have spent on a single tattoo, however I wouldn't recommend this shop to anyone. Perhaps the shop has a few talented artists, but there are a lot of shops out there that are courteous, professional, and communicative. What a huge disappointment this place is.

This was the first time I've been in here and it is fantastic. I brought my sixteen-year-old daughter in with me to get our ears pierced. Our technician was Kyra and she was fabulous. She was professional and personable. And the best part was that the entire procedure was quick and painless. The cost is affordable. If I ever decide on another piercing I will definitely go back. I highly recommend!

The friendliest, most Clean tattoo spot! I will always recommend this location.

Was told the wait would be about an hour or so to get a tattoo... no problem 3 hours later the artist comes out then tries to over charge us we asked why so much he said cause of detail but it was all just line work..... This is the second time they've tried to overcharge me for a tattoo and to top it off while waiting no one kept us updated or anything as if we weren't there.....
