Best shop in Richmond. ALL the artist are welcoming. Joseph, the owner has been working on my sleeve and has done a couple other pieces for me and I am completely obsessed with my body art thanks to his talents. The artist aren't looking just to make $ but really care about your tattoo and will be honest about placement etc. Genuine artist. Great tattoo studio.

BEST TATTOO SHOP IN RICHMOND. John in particular is an excellent artist, very quick and makes you feel welcome. My wife and I have both been tattooed here and had a great experience. High Quality tattoos for an extremely fair price!

I knew I didn’t want to have the typical mall store piercing my daughter’s ears. After an email conversation with Ashley (who was really quick to respond to my inquiry), I knew I picked the right business. The whole place is clean, welcoming, and friendly. Also a bonus to see Juney (sorry if I misspelled her name) the beautiful pup. No the pup wasn’t in the piercing room. Ashley took the time to explain to my daughter what she was going to do. Yes my daughter cried but she was quick to smiles after she saw her newly pierced ears. The healing was quick and never needed saline nor did my daughter complain of any pain. Expect to pay more than your gun piercing shops, but it’s worth it. You get titanium earrings that are comfortable that don’t snag on anything, sterilized in house, and unique colors. I’m so glad I found this place. Thanks Ashley.

Awesome, awesome shop. Fairly new, the owner, Joseph, is absolutely amazing. He's a fun guy, professional, and know's how to get the job done not only in a timely manner, but without any lack of details. His lines are crisp, the shading is superb, and the color blends seamlessly between each other.

My first tattoo was a simple $100 "Tattoo of the Day", but the experience definitely will make this my go-to shop. Highly recommend.

Will did such an amazing job and helped me so much!

I'm from out of state and wanted a piece done for my trip. Will worked with me over the phone and through email to get the design set up even though I wasn't in the city. He was so accommodating and easy to work with. And it doesn't hurt that he did an excellent job on my lantern. I would absolutely recommend this shop for art. Thank you, Will.

I turned 18 a little less than a month ago, so this was my first professional tattoo. I came in looking for a cover up for a smudgy stick and poke I had done a few years back, and was worried at first that it would be tricky to cover. However, Joe made it disappear with no problems at all. I was blown away by how detailed and delicate the line work was, and Joe was the absolute best both through his artwork and his personality. He was able to make the experience fun and comfortable while still maintaining a very professional attitude. I am beyond thrilled with the results and will definitely be coming back. Thank you yellow bird!

My daughter has been pleading for years to get a tattoo... 😔😔. My answer has always been “no...why markup your temple” and left it there. Under the age of 18 parents permission is required. So she waited patiently for the ripe “old age of 18” ☺️ and with her own funds asked if I would accompany her and I obliged. It was a Friday evening of Labor Day weekend returning home from college for the long holiday weekend, she went to one of the most frequented and popular shops (as my daughter has been told) on Broad Street midtown. She walked in at 8pm, they closed at 9pm, she asked for a half sleeve and was turned away because of the time it would have taken. She was told to come back the next day at 12noon. When my daughter has her nerve set and ready to proceed, she wants it done then. So She turned to me and said “this shop will never see my face again”...so we googled any nearby tattoo shops with 5 star ratings and a few popped up. Immediately the name “old soul” caught my attention as well as the ratings in a most positive way. My daughter called prior to my driving downtown, the owner answered her questions and agreed to take her, it was almost 9 at this time. We drove and arrived around 9pm. This was my first time ever in a tattoo shop and it was so clean and full of personality, I didn’t know what to expect actually 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ But very clean! We were welcomed when we arrived and treated with excellent customer service. My daughter wanted a half sleeve of roses 🌹 which would take hours to do, taking over the allotted closing time. To please the customer and considering his staff, Joe offered to do my daughters tattoo knowing how long the job would take and not asking any of the employees to stay longer than needed for the job. The job took 4 hours for completion, the tattoo was not a picture from any of the book designs or displays but one she found on her own and without hesitation Joe made it happen. He grabbed his coffee and went right to work, never complaining or flinching... he was very personable as was the staff. He did EXCELLENT WORK in my opinion and everyone else who saw the finished product. We were in the shop until around 2am and he still took the time to give her instructions to take care of the tattoo and the needed ointments and etc. the only drawback, if there were any, is that you’re not allowed to video record while he’s working...he politely asked if I would not. Again...I obliged. This is a very nice clean personable establishment...sooo very happy 😊 my daughter was turned away from the “popular tattoo parlor in midtown “ ☺️☺️

This place is great. The staff is all super helpful and friendly. Joe was recommended by a friend so I asked him to do a couple of pieces for me. He was very patient, professional, and honest when it came to his recommendations. I brought him TERRIBLE prints of what I wanted and he turned them into something absolutely awesome. I already have plans to go back and get more work done. Highly recommend this shop and Joe.

I was a walk in and I honestly didnt think that I would be able to get my tattoo, but I did and I love it. The whole feel is just so chill and comfortable and I just... I cant say enough good things about my experience with them. I absolutely recommend coming here if you want to have a good time and feel comfortable. I will absolutely be returning for future tattoos.
