Reviews of Obsidian Rose Tattoo (Tattoo Shop)

Sandy L Smith

So sad every single day how much money I spent to be ignored, chastised and not once did anyone apologize for the absurd off the rails results. Makes me feel sad every single day I look at $2700 for a third of a sleeve I hate

Vanessa Mills

The greatest tattoo experience I’ve ever had. Tim is amazing and I’m so proud to have his art on my arm! I can’t wait for my next masterpiece. Highly recommend this tattoo shop!

A friend and I Went here back in may for tattoos, we wanted one artist. Had our consult with her put our deposit down and about a week before shes moving on. That awesome for her, but because of policy we couldn't get our deposit back. So we changed our tattoo design and went with a different artist so money wasnt wasted. Called a couple weeks ago for touch up ask what the cost is, we are told free. So we book the appointment, show up for it and get blindsided by fees. For a cash only establishment, with an hour before close we opted out. Update: Emma the owner has apologized for the mix up and has offered to rebook the touch ups with no surprise cost.

I personally haven't been tattooed here, but I was witness to my friends ribcage tattoo. She was tattooed by an "apprentice" which doesn't speak volumes towards this girls skill. I will be coming back myself to get the handcrafted detail I witnessed going in to my friends piece.

Great place with awesome staff who do phenomenal work!

Kendra Myhre

I would recommend this place over and over. The shop is so clean, and the music selection there is perfect, and all the artists are great to chat up. It gives you a home/welcoming feeling which is amazing. Derrick just did two forearm tattoos for me - for my children - which I am just in LOVE with. He nailed it. The design he came up with, his line work, and the colors and water color are perfect. It's exactly what I wanted. I will be back for more work from this amazing shop. Thank you Derrick !! I cannot be happier with my Tattoos!!

Love this shop, got most my tattoos here and was impressed with how clean it always is. Very friendly and breaks the stigma sooner people might have about tattoo artists

Joel Goodfellow

Nick Hill is a brilliant tattooist and the other staff are very friendly. Had my left forearm done by Nick and not only is it a lovely piece, I had a lot of fun along the way. Very accommodating too.

Corey Klippel

Clean, professional, and talented artists Just finished a fairly large piece on forearm, Chris did it in 2 sessions about 6 weeks apart, the realism is amazing. It was expensive but in this case I got what I paid for. Great work, and I'll be back.

Over two years with a deposit and me supposed to be in with Chris have still not gotten any news for my tattoo(Full backpeice) . Very poor customer service because if my busy secedual and Chris not being able to draw the tattoo I wanted. Felt it was no use calling figuring it out anymore because no action happends. Feel that people should know this before going into this place may be the only one who may have a complaint of this nature. It's my money and I seen it vanish without no contact for a big peice.

Mary Aucoin

The artists are amazing, and make you feel comfortable before they stab you with the tattoo gun lol. The owner is so helpful with concerns over the healing process

Jo Majko

Staff is very friendly and professional and the shop is very clean. Derrick did an amazing job on the design and execution...I couldn't be happier. I will definitely be coming back to get the rest of my ink done here without even a second thought. If you don't have a high pain tolerance, I highly suggest you get the numbing cream that they offer you...It works extremely well. Thank you Derrick and Obsidian Rose! Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you !!!!!!

Tim killed it. He also has a very nice shop, it’s sanitary and everyone is very nice. My tattoo healed incredibly.

I should have posted this a long time ago. I booked my appt with a female artist who no longer is there. I gave her the picture of what I wanted and put my deposit down of $150. I met with her prior to my tattoo appointment and she showed me the picture she drew (which is different then what I asked for). I was told not to be so picky and I needed to trust her. I called the shop back and spoke to a lady on the phone that I wasn't happy and that I have the right to be picky as this will be on my body forever. I asked for my deposit back and was denied this because I had signed a contract and my time had passed. This artist quit and I was given to other artist "senior artist." Met him and he wasn't a good fit for me either. Asked for money back again and was denied. At the end of the day I am out $150 and with no tattoo. Something to think about if you really know what you want.

Misty Reimer

Great guys, care about the artwork they are putting on people. It’s something you are proud to show people.

Great work Tim, asked him to cover up an old tattoo. What an amazing job. You get what you pay for in this industry. You want a top notch tattoo goto Tim Ashman. Professional but also Laughed an joked the whole time. Will be back an will be recommending to those who need real ink done. Thanks Forever grateful ???????? Benjamin

James Yue

Great experience! Shop is clean. Atmosphere is relaxed. And everyone is so friendly. And the artwork I received from Tim is amazing! Can't wait to go back for more!

Lisa Young

Sam is doing an AMAZING tattoo for me

Celeste Logan

Absolutely the best and cleanest tattoo shop I have been to. The staff are so friendly and outgoing, they make your experience comfortable and make sure you get what you want. Both myself and partner have multiple tattoos by different people in this shop. We will not go anywhere else now. Worth the 10 minute drive to Chestermere. They book up exceptionally fast.

Craig Strachan

Great atmosphere for all. Tim Ashman is a gifted artist and great guy. Can't go wrong with his studio.

Sheila Rodberg

Knowledgeable and talented tattoo artists. Comfortable atmosphere. Took me a quite awhile to find a tattoo shop, glad I decided on this one.

Tara Pitts

Very clean establishment, but I was very disappointed in their customer service. My appointment was scheduled for 3pm on a Wednesday and I was driving out to Chestermere from Calgary. When I got there the girl behind the desk told me my artist was still with another client and he would be another hour!! I was quite upset that they didn’t call me sooner to let me know that he was running behind so that I didn’t have to waste an hour sitting there. When he did get to me (an hour and 20min later) he seemed very dismissive of me. He made me feel as though I wasn’t important or worth his time because I was only getting a small tattoo on my ankle. He didn’t listen when I told him I didn’t want the tattoo any bigger than the one on my opposite ankle and made no conversation with me throughout the entire appointment. Not only that, but I heard him give a discount to the girl before me, but he still charged me full price even after making me wait an hour and my entire tattoo only took him 20 min. I have plans for future tattoos, but I don’t think I’ll be going back here for them.
