The sweetest, kindest, funniest soul I’ve ever met. She knows a woman’s body and makes the process ten times safer. She’s done over half my body now and I’m so grateful 💚💚
On arrival I was greeted down stairs and brough up to a beautiful open concept studio with plants and bright natural lighting. The space was very clean and comfortable. This artist was super professional and worked with me to get my stencil just right for over an hour! I’m IN LOVE with my new butterfly throat…
Got my first tattoo here. Kaia is great at getting you to be comfortable, the whole experience was great. She was very clean with her workspace and cleaned in between clients as well. Really appreciated that, can’t wait to come back and maybe get another one!

I can’t even express how much I fell in love with not only the studio itself, but with my artist and how devoted she is to her clients ! no headphones were needed for my session, it was all talk. I wouldn’t want it any other way. Best Artist with an even better personality!
Kaia is really really good. I am afraid of needles and I was afraid to go to a dark and crowded place where I would run away and not get my tattoo done. She was very kind and patience with me.

Love my new piece of art by Kaia! I gave my jumbled ideas to Kaia and she created a beautiful image that was more than I could have imagined. We started with a half sleeve and I love what she's done so much that we are already brainstorming to turn it into a full sleeve. Kaia makes you feel totally at ease. She is…
