So I went in two weeks ago on wednesday and got some 2 lines and 5 dots on my fingers and 3 lines on each ear. I was charged $160 for this and tipped $30 because I’m in the service industry as well and always tip. now the dots and lines on my fingers when they healed didn’t stick which I know is common for finger tattoos and called for a touch up. They wanted me to pay another $20 for the touch up.. which I think is completely unfair. A lady before me got a piece on her shoulder and only had to pay $100 for it. I’ve also gotten a couple other pieces (not just lines and dots) at this shop and they cost less than $160. I think $180 for a couple of lines and dots is a complete rip off especially when the tattoo didn’t even take an hour. I have about 20 other tattoos so I know that it shouldn’t cost that much. will never be back.

I got tattooed by Ashley while she was an apprentice in 2021. She did a fantastic job and helped me come up with a design I loved.

Amazing! I definitely recommend stopping down to check it out. Clean, friendly staff but the best part in my opinion is that thier OWN art is all around you and on the walls. Which shows you all the more how passionate they are about what they do. My cover up turned out gorgeous especially considering the absolute most hideous,catastrophe, garbage of a tattoo I originally had. Now when people compliment my tattoo I can actually say i love it too for once instead of tearing it apart and pointing out the flaws. Thank you agian to my artist Andreas! You did a beautiful job and I'll be seeing you soon!

Went in to get a flash tattoo but they were booked for the rest of the day. There was a really nice lady who I didn’t get the name of who took my info and was able to book me for an appointment a week later with Mel. Mel was so nice and had great, funny, sarcastic conversations (not to boost his ego even more 😂). He was very flexible and talked through the process of my tattoo and explained what he was doing.

Would NOT recommend going here and having Clover as your artist!!! Went to get a tattoo with my friend. Artist was NOT prepared at all. Went in 2 weeks prior for consult with the design we wanted. Day of tattoo she didn't have it even drawn up for us to look at. She had double booked so another person came in for a consult and on top of it all she tried to get us to change our design. When we told her no we wanted it like that she got salty and said she doesn't do that type of designs. WHY THEN WOULD YOU SAY YOU WOULD DO IT THEN WHEN I WENT IN FOR MY CONSULT AND SHOWED YOU WHAT WE WANTED? Waited an hour for her to draw it up and nothing. Finally went to owner and told him we were waiting an hour and we're just going to go. He didn't seem to care his artist was loosing money or tried to compensate for our time wasted. Maybe other artists are better, when we were waiting another artist did have a customer come in and start getting tatted right away.

Very disappointed! I had made an appointment for my daughter, my mom, and myself to get tattoos- 3 weeks in advance w/ Clover. 2.5 hours prior to our appointments we received a text that said Clover's hair appt that had started 6 hours prior to our tattoo appts was taking longer than she had expected so she needed to reschedule all 3 of us for another day. Needless to say, we did not take the new time given to us as we already had taken time off of work! Luckily I called a local shop and explained to them what had happened and they made time for us! Things happen but this seems to be pretty common for Clover. :(
