This is by far, the BEST tattoo place I have ever been in (and I have visited many!). I am IN LOVE with my new ink that was done by Ruby Santiago! Ruby and the other artists were so welcoming and friendly, and given my request to add to a tattoo that I already had Ruby took MY ideas, combined them with HER ideas and incorporated them (freehand!) into my existing tattoo and !voila! a magical transformation was made.
I was there with 3 of my family members who also received tattoos on the same day and their ink is also more beautiful than we had even imagined! Price wise, the artist's hourly fees were comparable to others I have seen in the business, the difference here was that the price was well worth the finished tattoo...this is the first time in 4 other tattoo sessions at different shops that I walked away 100% happy and satisfied with my new ink. This one will NOT have to be redone OR added too. I really got what I paid for here! (Ruby, your AWESOME!)
As for the shop itself...it was clean and well kept, warm, welcoming and very tastefully decorated with artwork and wall hangings and other beautiful things to look at. It kind of made me want to grab a nice hot cup of coffee and hang out all day (oh yea, that's what I did!) :-)
I took a stack of card to give to my friends as I have officially deemed this my most favorite tattoo shop ever. I will be getting all of my ink done here in the future. Thank you Madame Lazonga's (aka Vyvyn'ss Tattoo) for a job well done and I can't wait to come see you again!
Pros: All women artists, a very tasteful and clean shop
Cons: couldn't think of any...
