Could not recommend this shop more. Clean, friendly, professional. But most of all, Khalid did my boyfriend’s first (!) tattoo and did an AMAZING JOB! He made my boyfriend so comfortable and was able to take my boyfriend in as a walk-in appointment, which we are so grateful for. Also, they have amazingly talented apprentices. Dakota did my tattoo and he is so friendly and talented, I have no doubt he’s gonna have a great career as an artist. Would totally have him tattoo me again. Thank you Area 51!

Got my second tattoo done on Wednesday this week by Khalid and it was perfect! He did an amazing job matching the dog tag I showed him. The detail was everything I wanted and more. Awesome staff all around and great shop to check out!

I have gotten 2 tattoos from Khalid. each of them done in great taste, and if you like perfection Khalid is as meticulous as a tattoo artist can be great work.

Second tattoo completed last night by Khalid. It's very sentimental and he did an amazing job! He took the time to talk to me about the design, size, and colors to make sure it would be something I was happy with. Fantastic artist and shop. Very clean. Khalid is a very thoughtful artist and owner. Always a great experience. The staff are wonderful!!! 🙂
