I'm so glad I used a couple of hours to track down Seattle Ink & Oil for my next tattoo.
Justin welcomed me and took his time to discuss the project I had in mind, and he quickly understood my idea, which he carried out to perfection.
We had to rearrange the placement of where the tattoo should be a few times, because I wasn't totally sure. But he had nothing but patience with me and made it clear that it was important we got it right.
Also, Justin is very experienced with more than a decade of tattooing (and he does amazing oil paintings, too), not to mention that he's an empathetic, easy-going person.
The place is a bit hard to find, and I couldn't find a sign outside of the Seattle Ink & Oil's door. But trust me, it's totally worth it to use that extra minute to locate it!
Lastly, it was such a nice touch after Justin learned about the story of my project, which is a line from an Alice in Chains song written on my left arm. He found a grunge playlist that we listened to, while talking about the era of grunge, while I was getting a grunge tattoo in the city that have birth to it all. I loved that!
Absolutely five out of five stars from me!
