Reviews of NSI Tattoo Kelowna (Tattoo Shop)

A kid from Canada

I just got some work done today I love this shop very organized and clean, good vibes, Cody has careful attention to detail as well. Totally worth checking them out.

I have known Cody for a number of years now and am lucky to call him my friend. I have watched him become a truly dynamic artist. We met in the design and illustration program at Capilano University, where it was his goal to retain the foundations of art for his tattooing. He did an amazing job on my intricate line-work tree tattoo and snowflake. Out of the seven tattoos I have, these are by far my favourite.

NSI Tattoo is a beautiful, chill and clean shop run by two very talented artists. Every step of my tattoo experience has been exceptional; Cody was great from the initial consultation through to the final touches of a fantastic tattoo. Both his talent and his dedication to his craft are shown in his work. Highly recommended!

Kristen R

We had a group tattoo done, amazing atmosphere and very accommodating. Totally recommend.

I went to NSI for their Halloween Flash sale and was blown away. They are very professional, welcoming, and do quick work. I would definitely reccomend them to my friends.

All I can say is what a compliment Cody & Fabiana's skills are to Lake country & the Okanagan!They host a very bright welcoming studio with respect to the customer as we are all creative ..but not necessarily artistic.They offer unbuyest proffesional advice to transform the unique art idea in our heads -with the execution of a lasting tattoo image .Shout out to Cody for his increadible linework,color and shading in my piece !!!

Brittany Trombley

Fantastic shop and artists! Both Cody and Fabiana are very talented and welcoming people. Fabiana got me in for the piece I wanted in just a matter of days and I couldn't be happier! Thank you so much!! I will definitely be back :)

Thomas Steward

I came in a few weeks ago for a consultation with Fabiana with an idea of what I wanted for a tattoo. She was very direct and honest with what would work and what wouldn't. When I came in for my tattoo today I got to see the final design and it was well above what I expected. Fabiana worked quickly and efficiently and carried a casual relaxing conversation for the 3 hr piece. I'm more then impressed with the artwork, application and overall experience I had at this shop. Would recommend to anyone looking to get some ink work done.

Lisa Donnahee

We are super impressed with the team at NSI. Not only did they accommodate our group of four, Cody designed a meaningful and stunning tattoo for all of us. I would highly recommend NSI for your first or next piece!

Jen Rowe

Cody and Fabiana opened their shop for us on their day off. Such a friendly and clean shop. Recommend to anyone to go to them.

Cody Oelrich

Absolutely amazing work, they really work with you to find out what you want and make it happen. I'm very impressed with the quality of my piece and cant wait to get it finished.

Danielle McMunn

I have had multiple tattoos from the artists at Nsi and it has been a pleasure. it is clean, professional and they really know art. just finished two leg pieces and I tell you I am floored with the whole experience. I am lucky to have them in lake country and so are you!

Jessica Bennett

I walked in off the street into NSI to see about a tattoo. I just wanted my daughters names in script up my arm - something very simple. But Cody challenged me to perhaps do something more creative. After he took the time and showed me what some other people came up with, I booked a consultation and went home to do some research. I found a concept I liked and showed it to Cody and he ran with it and came up with a design. I was so nervous to see it the day of my appointment, but it was amazing and turned out phenomenal! I am so happy i took took his advice! NSI is a great shop with reasonable wait times. I would highly recommend it. I’m going back with my sisters in the summer.

Carol Sproule

My daughter and I got matching tattoos from Cody at NSI Tattoo in Lake Country today. I can't say enough good things about what a positive experience this was! Cody was very professional yet chill and made me feel so comfortable. This was a 60th birthday present for me and he really made it feel special! I'm already planning to go back! We are so fortunate to have two tattoo artists with Cody and Fabiana's skill in Lake Country...thank you again! You won't be disappointed at this shop!

Iain MacQuarrie

fabiana tattooed me and im in love with it, already spoke with her about another piece i want tattooed... definitely coming back. It was my first tattoo and i couldn't have asked for better artists to start my tattoo journey!

Markus Ewert

NSI has proven to be the best tattoo studio in town. Their rates are fair and both artists are incredibly talented. It is a really nice and welcoming atmosphere at their studio, both of them are really polite and open for any concerns or questions you have. From the beginning to the end when it comes to after care and healing procedures, they are super professional and know their stuff! I made an amazing experience going there and will definitely choose this studio for future tattoos over any others! Thanks for the great experience! :)

Robyn Jamieson

Fabiana is amazing! Like any true professional, she took my idea and came up with the most wonderful design infused with her awesome artistic style. Her lines are clean, her attention to detail is superb, and her shop has such a great atmosphere - there's so much talent here. I'll definitely be going back for my next tattoo!

Iris Chan

Fabi did my arm sleeve and she knocked it out of the park! Not only is her work beautiful, but she is incredibly kind and accommodating :) looking forward to going back!

Becky Grainge

I walked in with a concept piece of what I wanted and Fabiana transformed it in to something 100x better while still completely keeping my original vision alive! I couldn't be happier with my final result! Both her and Cody were lovely and incredibly talented, so I definitely recommend if you're after a great tattoo done by great people!

Shealyn Meagan

I got my very first tattoo done here and it turned out beautifully. The artists are super talented, will definitely be back!

Mona Wang

amazing place to get a tattoo! I got my first one here and Fabi was so accommodating and kind. We had lots of interesting conversations and she made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The tattoo looks amazing as well, with crisp smooth lines and everything fit together very well. You can tell she is very experienced and cares a lot about her clients!

Sheri Marie

I got my first tattoo here and Fabiana made it a very enjoyable experience. Their shop is beautiful and clean and they created a very safe, comfortable environment. She worked hard to make sure I got what I came for, while suggesting modifications for the longevity and aesthetic of the tattoo which I really appreciated. I will definitely be going back there.

Mika Nikolai

Cody did an excellent job with my tattoo! He took my idea, turned it into a unique and awesome piece of art.

Tara Perkins

I first got ink from Cody when he was starting out. He was professional, accommodating, and worked hard to get the tattoo just right. From the design phase to the aftercare, Cody was diligent every step of the way. I've been getting tattooed for 20 years and Cody is the only artist who's done more than 1 piece (out of my 12) on me, and he'll be the only one to do my ink from now on. I often get stopped by people on the street who are blown away by the pieces he's done on me. And when I tell them it was his second tattoo, they are even more impressed! Can't wait to get my next NSI tattoo.

Maria Gunn

Went to NSI after having 3 failed consults at other parlours to get my old tattoo covered up and finally found someone who was willing to take on the challenge! Fabiana was honest with me throughout the entire session and told me what would work and what wouldn't work during our consult. In the end it was completely different than what I had originally thought of getting but I couldn't imagine having anything else done! My next tattoo will for sure be done with these guys again. Thanks Fabi!!!

Derek Patten

—I'm not going to try and say I know a lot about the intracasies of tattoo work, but I know what I like and I like my giant anchor tattoo I had done ! I'll definitely be going back to get more work done.

Kennedy Arbeau

Fabiana is in the process of my half-sleeve and not only do i love the work itself, but the atmosphere, prices, and company are always on point!! Will definitely be getting more pieces done here in the future

codys an awesome guy tattoo was fun and turned out amazing definitely going back

Justin Revesz

Nice people. Give positive feedback. Helped me come to a decision.

Doug Jenkins

I had a great first tattoo for my Birthday and Cody did a really excellent job. Much Thanks.

Kirsten Murrell

Fabiana and Cody are amazing artists and make a great team. Fabiana designed a tattoo for me based on a conversation and a few pictures; her talent and graceful design exceeded my expectations!

Adam S

Been having a back piece with a lot of meaning behind it worked on by Cody, he's done so much to make this piece really come to life. Leaving full creative freedom to him and having all the trust in his ability has led to such an amazing piece of work. Cody and Fabiana both work so hard and well together to make sure they give their clients the best possible tattoos. Overall just awesome people to get to know aswell. There is no other artists that I'd trust to put permanent art on me. Highly recommend NSI tattoo and suggest giving them creative freedom and trust. You'll never leave unhappy. Thanks for all the work so far!

Donna Redekop

I had such a great experience this weekend getting a tattoo from Fabina. We had this weekend planned for several family and friends to get a certain flower tattooed in memory a sister past. The environment is very inviting. Super clean. Their technology to be able to add and change a design to make it exactly what you want was fantastic. Great experience. Highly recommended. Thank you Fabina and Cody.

Kevin O'Leary

My second piece from Cody! See you again soon

Gabe Schieven

Cody was amazing, and the tattoo was just what I wanted. recommended this place to all my friends

Awesome shop, very clean and friendly environment. Would recommend it to everyone, if you’re getting your first tattoo or just looking to add to your collection, Cody and Fabi can come up with just about anything.

Miranda McInnis

I've seen a lot of Cody's work and am impressed everytime. Cody is very professional and I would suggest him to anyone! Look forward to seeing more of your work cody!

Chris Woods

I got a coverup tattoo from Cody a couple years ago and it beyond exceeded my expectations. The clean line work and quality of tattooing from North Shore Ink is tough to beat! I'll be back for sure!

Kyle Stevenson

Cody is unreal at what he does I got a huge price done on my ribs and the line work is incredible I am yet to get it finished but 100 percent plan on going back hopefully some time soon. His wife also does amazing work I have seen some of her work and I would for sure get her to do a piece on me as well highly reccomend NSI to anybody

Shayla Johnston

Cody is so much more then just a tattoo artist. Hes genuine and he makes you feel comfortable. his drawings are impeccable, his talent is undescribable and his honesty is rare. I was the emotional mess on valentines day, and he made me laugh and gave me a peice i will always love. He wouldnt let me tattoo things he knew i would hate, he put effort into every single detail that mattered on the one he did. He did my back peice, which is my favorite peice on my body, and he will always remain one of my favorite artists. His shop is immaculate, and they make you feel very comfortable with how sanitized and clean every little thing is kept. I recommend him, his wife and thier shop to ANYONE in the okanagan wanting some work done. 10/10. 5/5. Amazing experience.

sandra hinter

I have been tattooed in 6 different shops and my experience here has been the best. such a relaxed atmosphere...so clean and great conversation. In my opinion the flowers tattooed on my daughter and I are the best I have seen. I cant wait to get my next piece done here. There is talent here people..come check it out

Tom Derksen

NSI Tattoo is amazing! Made the trip from Vanderhoof twice to get work done. Cody and Fabi are a dream team that are clearly inspired by, and love what they do. The shop is bright, clean, professional and easy to find. We are already looking at times to make the next trip. If you are getting INK don't think, just go to NSI Tattoo.

Jamie Szuuts

I went to see Cody for my tattoo. This was my first tattoo. I gave him some idea of what I wanted and he took it from there. The result was beyond what I had imagined. The whole experience was great! I do not think this will be my last tattoo and I will definitely go back to Cody for my next one!!

Mary Evans

Fabiana is finishing my second full arm. Her artistry is wonderful. She created exactly the design I was hoping for and I love it. NSI is spotless and a gorgeous studio. Total professionals and so talented!

darrien lever

Cody and Fabiana are both amazing artist! Great service, awesome atmosphere, and very clean!

Richard Hachey

Cody knows what he's doing, still love the work I had done two years ago!

Joe Hellewell

I contacted Cody with a picture idea for a tattoo and he redesigned it into exactly what I wanted. It was my first tattoo and Cody did a great job making it an excellent experience. I will recommend NSI to everyone I know and will definitely be back for more!

Cullen Andjelic

Cody is an absolute ink master. He made sure every inch of my tattoo was on point and spent so much time focusing on details. Highly recommend NSI and will never go anywhere else for the rest of the tattoos I have in mind. World class ????

Sharon Carlson

So impressed with our experience. Love my work. Super friendly couple. They were very helpful and accommodating.

Megan Hendricks

My experience here was awesome! The space is bright and clean, and I felt very comfortable.

Bre N

Cody and Fabiana are professional, friendly and really talented. Their studio is new, clean, and comfortable with tons of free parking :)

Diana Mcnutt

The shop owned by Fabiana and Cody are so passionate about their careers, and you can really see it when stepping inside. Walking into the studio right away it was a comfortable feeling, with good vibes all around. Fabiana did my tattoo, and it turned out exactly the way I wanted it! Not having many tattoos myself, she did an amazing job with care, placement, and sizing and I was so excited for it, that I wasn't even nervous to get on the table. I look forward to getting more work done by NSI! Also you're new webpage looks awesome, great layout and write up about you both! Its why I chose you!

Scott Amano

Worked with Fabiana. She is very professional, talented, creative and detail oriented. The process was very smooth and she had numerous creative ideas that we implemented during the the appointment resulting in an amazing finished tattoo. Better than the original drawing! I am happy to recommend NSI to friends and family. Great work and excellent value.

Chris Stewart

Cody and I have worked on several pieces together and I can’t begin to express how positive these experiences have been. Cody and Fabiana are not only exceptional artists but excel on customer service and professionalism. The shop is super clean and has a welcoming vibe. I really appreciate how Cody and Fabiana can embrace modern technology while sticking to traditional tattooing values. I have personally recommended NSI to many of my friends.

Georgia Chalmers

I am so impressed with NSI tattoo I would suggest it to anyone looking for a place to go. I had my tattoo done back in September, which had colour in it. The colour has stayed so vibrant which I never expected and NSI has exceeded every expectation I could have imagined. Thank you Cody, and team.

Shelby

My experience from start to finish was great. Cody's expertise easily shows by how he: understands your vision, is honest about what will and won't work in a tattoo, creates a unique piece that captures what you want all while making a solid, beautiful piece that works, and by how much research he does of the things you want incorporated into your tattoo. It was clear in his diligence and the outcome of my tattoo that he truly cared about giving me a piece I'd love. Can't wait to come back for more!

Dyllon Pietz

Went to see Fabiana for a tattoo for my daughter. I came in with a simple idea and she helped me create something unique and original. The tattoo and my Daughters name was all hand drawn by Fabiana, nothing pulled off the internet. So happy with the service! Even though my tattoo was smaller and simple, I got treated no differently than someone coming to get a huge piece done. Highly recommend! I’ll be back for sure.

Sydney Melnychuk

We want to shout out to @hiromi.tattoo and @cody.nsi for the awesome experience, they're down to earth artists who know how to adjust the piece to the contours of the body. Their talent and passion are displayed in their studio and presence. Thaaank you again for your work, we couldn't be more happy with the results.

Andrew Penner

Best experience ever! Very fun environment, very talented artists

Nicole tkachyk

The tattoo cody created for me was beyond what I could of imagined. He created something so beautiful out of what my ideas were and put it to life. He is very professional and extremely talented. I totally recommend cody to anyone. He has a fun outgoing atmosphere , and very clean environment. Can't wait for my next one already :)

Mandy Kraft

I got a tattoo from Fabiana and have nothing but good things to say about her. The art she did was amazing, and she was also very responsive over email when planning the tattoo and appointment. I would definitely recommend her, and NSI shop in general.

Amber Wenona

Have been a client for years and have always left happy. Cody and Fabi are both very good at what they do and their studio gives off great relaxing vibes while being tattooed.

Noah Smyth

I got my first tattoo by Fabiana, she thoroughly explained everything to me and made sure I was happy with the custom design. Would recommend travelling to them again to get my next piece done.

T.J. Dunn

I was lucky to get a tattoo from Cody and the process from start to finish was amazing. He took my rough idea and turned it in to a beautiful work of art that gets compliments all the time. I am looking forward to planning out and getting more tattoos in the near future.

Awesome Tattoo, outstanding customer service too, which is rare in this industry. Cody and Fabiana truly care about that you want and that it'll look good, not just getting you in and out for a tattoo.
