Cree8iv Ink Body Studio was recommended to me by a close friend. From the booking process to the finished work, the staff was fantastic! They were kind, knowledgeable, professional, and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable in the studio. My session was with Bobbi-Jo, and I can’t speak highly enough of her talent, creativity and energy!! Not only did she do an incredible job with my piece, she stayed after hours to complete it!!! Thank you so much for your absolute awesomeness Bobbi-Jo…I’m looking forward to my next session!
I am very grateful for my friend’s recommendation, and would gladly recommend Cree8iv Ink to anyone in search of a clean, respectful tattoo studio to get their artwork done.
Cheers all…

This was one of my worst tattoo experiences. I’ve gotten many before, but 60$ for a 5 minute finger tattoo that wasn’t shaded properly, is a completely different design that originally picked (it was supposed to be 7’s, she blew it out so far from the stencil it now looks like 2’s) is crazy to me personally.. After reaching out they assured me they’d be in touch, and it’s been 4 days now. I do not recommended getting a tattoo here that has any kind of fine detail or shading.

Went in for a tattoo an add-on to my current piece I have on my forearm, upon arriving I was stoked to be getting this tattoo, unfortunately I had a terrible experience;

Appointment was for 2:30, he didn’t have the stencil transferred to the transfer paper yet, to be put on my skin, he took half an hour to draw it out on the transfer paper and then get it all placed on me, I understand that this takes time, but you should already have the stencil ready to go when your clients arrive, so they don’t have to wait an extra hour or so.

Once we got the stencil situated, we began the tattoo, @3:50, mid session, I had to switch positions so he could get at where he needed to be to carry on, when I did this, the hinge of the chair broke as I was getting off to switch to stomach laying..he made it sound as though the chair was already about to break, after I already fully broke it, Iam a plus size girl, and the way he went about this made me feel extremely judged and uncomfortable.

He then asked me if I could cover the cost of the chair which was $250 because he was screwed without it, keep in mind Iam 22, and I worked hard for the money I had to put aside for this tattoo, and I told him I couldn’t afford the extra $250 for the chair.. my opinion is; you should have better chairs/equipment to fit different sizes/weight limits.

At the end of my session, he wasn’t done the shading on my tattoo, we ran out of time because of the chair situation that took half an hour by the time he was done all his smoke breaks.

he then proceeded to tell me I’d have to find another artist to finish the piece as he was moving in a week, and he couldn’t finish it, this to me made me feel like he didn’t want to work on me cause I broke his chair and I’m a bigger girl, extremely unprofessional, poor attitude and poor hygiene also very unorganized.

I will not be going back to this facility for further work, I’ve never felt so bad and uncomfortable in my life, the front desk staff is very unfriendly also, I asked if I could purchase a tube of ointment from behind the counter and the girls insisted I just take the sample packets, after I asked 2 times if I could just buy one, as I don’t know how 3 tiny packets are gonna last me for..
Took her 5 minutes to even knowledge I was there when I showed up for my appointment also, if you wanna sell products, maybe let people buy them and don’t deny it, not how business should be ran, this place will not be in my recommendations.

I took my daughter for her first tattoo today. We got matching tattoos at my daughters request. Bobbi Jo was our artist and was fantastic! Being my girls first tatt and covid being here, she had to go in by herself. Bobbi Jo was amazing at making her feel comfortable and was very informative with everything she did. I highly recommend if you are looking for ink, this is the place you want! There are several artists ranging from junior to senior to choose from.

Thank you so much Bobbi Jo! We will definitely be returning for future tattoos 🙂

Terrible communication throughout the business. Got rescheduled 4 times in one week because there was no piercer at the building. They do not communicate with their employees when they will be in or what hours that the piercer is they at. Will never try to go again because it’s just a waste off time.

I went for a walk in piercings, on a Sunday around 2, and though I had to wait a little bit it was truly worth the wait. When you are back there with him, he spends such detailed time with you going over placement, size, after care and the procedure.
The studio was so clean and welcoming. The staff were warm and knowledgeable about all aspects of the experience.

I over heard the client before me, a apprehensive 12 year old girl get her ear done, and I can attest that the same care and grace is given to every client.

10/10 will be going back to complete my look, as a face can only handle about three new holes at a time.
But I will definitely be goin back on a Sunday as they have deals, and "sets" are $100 on Sundays and I got double high nose and a Medusa today for 175 including jewelry and after care. Would recommend to anyone young or seasoned to go here.

This shop has not changed at all today I got another tattoo for the first time in 3 years and they are still the same outstanding amazing people I’ve known since I started going doing my sleeve 5 or 6 years ago! They are friendly welcoming and always so fun to be around! Thanks cass for knocking out my flowers today!
