I booked a half day with Nick Monty. I left a whole new person! I came in for a shark tattoo, and as he was doing it he noticed a bad tattoo on my arm that I was pretty self conscious about. He not only offered to fix it but did such an amazing job doing so! Staff was super friendly as I entered and I felt so welcome there. Definitely a new favorite shop!

I have had both arms done with Brian at Big Guns. It has been an awesome experience. I told Brian what I was looking to do and he helped me design both arms. His work is top notch! I would recommend him to anyone.
