Reviews of Inksplosion Tattoos (Tattoo Shop)

Amanda Draper

Shane did my daughters tattoo last night. He was wonderful with her. Patient, and gentle ( or as gentle as possible lol). He made her feel extremely comfortable. Her tattoo was in "delicate" area , he was very much a gentleman, keeping her covered. Great atmosphere, comfortable and very clean. His wife, Tammy, is extremely knowledgeable in answering your questions and addressing your concerns. Both of them are wonderful! I highly recommend Inksplosion to everyone!!

My sister and I in for a nose piercing and a cartilage piercing, and we had a great experience! Shane made us so calm, talked us through the whole process and was so kind! The shop was cleaner than a hospital, we felt very comfortable! Thanks inksplosion + Shane for our great experience!

Shane does an amazing job ! He puts so much time in his work and makes sure you’re super comfortable. Him and his wife treat me like family . His work is amazing and I’ve never had an issue with healing . The shop is super welcoming and clean ! 10/10 would recommend!

I have 8 piercings, i came here three times, once for my labrette and was pierced with a stud to small resulting in me having to change it two days after receiving the piercing which could have resulted in infections, I got my industrial done, and he pierced it with a tongue ring. And i got my philtrum done and he made it a berticle philtrum that's slightly crooked, he also stabbed the piercing needle through my philtrum TWICE! Before feeding the piercing so i have a big scar inside my mouth beside the ring, i have not removed any of these piercings because it hurt to much to try, i clean them until they heal, but now i have two piercing that with never look right. And they're very noticeable. I DO NOT RECOMEND THIS PLACE THEY DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COMPENSATE! I sat there for an hour because I was light headed.

I definitely recommend Inksplosion Tattoos! They have great staff, fair pricing, and a clean environment! I've so far got 4 tattoos done by Shane, he's a great artist, very professional, light handed and takes his time to work with you, and make sure you're happy with the work you get done! 10/10 recommend

Shane doesn’t know how to tattoo he’s got blowouts in his lines he can’t draw straight lines there’s upwards of 5 mistakes in every single tattoo he does I’ve seen a medusa head where the snakes look like a two year old drew it and a dirt bike with spokes that curl in a circle 90% of every tattoo you look at is not shaped properly lines don’t match up random lines that shouldn’t even be there needless to say Shane takes on jobs he’s not capable of doing Shane also puts no pride into his work all he cares about is the money there’s picture proof his work is pathetic and not worth your time or money What dirt bike has not straight spokes a broken one not a tattoo of one and I think if I want a medusa tattoo it should atleast resemble Medusa

Great guy and great tattoo's for fair price! Thanks Shane...

Joe Roy

Good prices and great service and great tattoos

Christie Sexton

Very sketchy place. The piercer messed up both mine and my friends piercings and we had to take them out. I would not recommend going here at all!

Julie DeBartlolo

I have been to this shop a few times and have received 2 tattoo's and they both have turned out amazing. The shop is clean and Shane and his wife are super friendly!!! The prices for my tattoos are really good as well. Keep up the great work. You know i will be back to get more Ponies!!!

Johnathan Warden

Very nice guys, but very poor work. I got a small piece done with black ink and it is terrible. The lines are super shaky and all blown out from the needle going in too far. He attempted to so shading on it, but all he did was chew up my skin and the ink just fell out. Nothing personal against the business, Shane is an excellent guy and piercer, but needs to step back from tattoos.

Peggy Cullen

This is the best tattoo place in town and the only place I will ever go for tattoos the staff and artists are very kind and friendly I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for great art work to be done

Andrew Postma

The people are awesome and Shane is an incredible artist !

Cathy Keast

I enjoyed every tattoo I have got there trust your artist and there is nothing but good things happen

Mndyvnbr V

Not good for delicate or small pieces. Good for your basic or classic style tattoos but if you have the slightest worry that your idea might be difficult, i recommend finding an artist you can work with more closely. Watch out that he might not warn you if a tattoo might not end up exactly as you are asking. Seemed a slightly unprofessional and unwelcoming environment if thats a problem for you.

Amanda Mac Donald

Shane has done 3 out of the 4 tattoos that I have an all his work has been amazing. I can honestly say he will be the only artist I will ever allow to tattoo me. The shop is always clean an the staff is all amazing!! Thank you for my amazing tattoos Shane!!

Nick adamson

Just got a new tattoo there and he did what i asked for even made it better thank you

TheBugNugs *Vlog Squad*

Got my industrial pierced there , he pierced it in the wrong place , when I switched it to a bar , the bar wouldn’t fit *he didn’t have any bars so we put hoops in instead* I had to let it healed over , I wasted 60 dollars then . Never going back .

Jakob Williams

This is by far the best shop within 300 miles

Ross Edwards

Went in for piercings. Should have known when being charged $20 for an eyebrow ring I was at the wrong shop. My eyebrow was pierced so poorly that the bottom of the ring is half way through my eyelid. Had to remove and currently have a black eye. I also had my cartilage pierced at same time. The piercer ended up dropping the needle and had to hand feed the ring through my ear resulting in extreme pain and I had an infection within 24 hours. Had to remove both piercings.

Jim Keast

Very talented!!..

Phoenix Cannabis

Amazing work, great costomer service, my tattoos look amazing and make me feel amazing, i will definitely recommend going in and just having a chat with shane (Owner) about any work you want done, hes an amazing guy very friendly and very easy to get along with, if your new to the whole experience he will talk you through it and make you leave with the best peice of art you've ever seen.

Only place I will get tattoos

Ron Weezly

Shane is a great artist he did all of my tattoos

Tim Gagne

I have had many tattoos done to date all done by Shane personally. I went in today to get some work done and Shane was very proffessional and friendly, as always, and made time to fit me in despite his busy schedule. I left his shop very happy with my new tattoo. I would highly recommend inksplosion to anyone. Their was one piece that needed a touch up due to human skin reaction a few years back. Shane was more than happy to do the work, free of charge. Thank you Shane!

William Harvey

Shane does excellent work! Will definitely be back!

alex mccolick

I went to get my ears pierced and the piercer did not use sterilization whatsoever. They also used very cheap piercings.

Ali Day-Maxner

I go to Inksplosion for all of my tattoos. Shane is so friendy, quick and has such a light hand. Highly recommend!

Great environment full of joy and great artists

Steve Etienne

I walked in this afternoon. There's a guy (customer, artist, owner???) sitting on the couch in the lobby. There's a woman behind the counter on at a computer. I stood there. 10, 15 seconds later, neither of them lifted their head nor acknowledged that I was even there. F-you. I walked out. Goodbye. You'll never see me again.

jon latanville

Great place

Jen Kane

Shane was the forth artist I have had tattoo me. I used to be so scared but after going to him I now get excited for another tattoo. He takes his time to make sure it is exactly what you want. He drew up a design with my deceased cats paw print in and then I came back to have matching tattoos with my mom I am already planning others!

Chrisann Thomas

Very nice guy,very professional, affordable. He does an amazing job. My go to tatoo and piercing artist... :)

chrisann Thomas

william jones

Branden Cozocar

BEWARE!!!!FORCED STAR 0 Horrible line work blows out lines goes way to deep and scratchy shading work also, Shop not very clean or organized to meet health code as ink bottle was stored on same table as laid out ink and tattoo machine being used on me during my Tattoo. BEWARE!!! DO NOT! RECOMMEND THIS SHOP! Shane is a Apprentice artist at best, I went in Friday March 29 2019 he charged me $140.00 to get Drop Dead across my knuckles his line work was blown out and unsteady and WAY!!! TO DEEP shading very scratchy most of the ink fell out even in line work. I called the shop two weeks after healing to be 100% on the final result to see if they would give me back $80 of the $140 to get it fixed by the Artist that recommended I NOT let Shane touch it again first time I got Shanes wife she said she would talk to Shane an call me back they never did. Next day I call back Shane answers an tells me he is busy an will call me back never did. Next day I go right into shop Shane basically tells me to take a hike there is nothing he can do there fingers, I have many tattoos an take very good care of them nothing was pulled off or picked at this is the result of Shane who calls himself a Tattoo artist. He will put some reply back to this i am sure saying its knuckles this happens and its my fault but i am not writing this review for me its for the people thinking to go here an do not be fooled by his pictures of his work do a quick ZOOM IN and you all will see what I wish I would have. BEWARE!!!BEWARE!!!BEWARE!!!BEWARE!!!BEWARE!!!!BEWARE!!!!
