Very professional and clean shop. Great vibes and artists. Highly suggest getting your tattoos done here by the owner Maryjane, but all artists there are versatile and ready as well.

Emily / @angetattoo best artist in the high desert been going to her since she first started and seeing her progress to a artist is really showing. With her new work being 💯 out of 10's shows what a heart set work pulls off. Will always recommend this kind hearted girl with a passion for the game super light hand…
