Very professional and efficient staff Very professional and efficient staff. Loved my artists's dedication to get my tattoo perfect!

I was sexually harassed by the owner… I was sexually harassed by the owner Ray Hinojosa/Axe Capital or whatever his name is. I went in to interview for an apprenticeship and i was met with constant sexual comments and questions about if i do Onlyfans. He could not take his eyes off of my chest and barely flipped through one sketchbook. At one point I told Ray/Axe that i had forgotten my ID and he exclaimed that I could just show him my breasts in place of ID. Then after all of that he tells me that "i'm hot enough" to work there. i was there in that back office alone with him, there was one other MALE artist in a booth tattooing someone during this time. There was no women in that building and CERTAINLY NOT someone in the room with us. I don't care that they denied me because of my stupid tiktok, I care that they think it's okay to run a shop like this especially when the owner ( Ray Hinojosa) is supposedly a veteran. I left feeling extremely uncomfortable and disgusted. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. (he has a wife btw)

Terrible Tattoo, Even Worse Manager I got this tattoo last night. It was a chill experience the artist was super cool but when I looked at it later it was just really bad and there was a piece missing from it and it was supposed to be red faded into black haha. I wasn't mad, things like this happen but I went back in today to ask for a refund since it was so bad and I don't live here so I won't be able to get it fixed there. The artist came up to us first and was super understanding and looking at the tattoo but then the manager Axe came out and this is the reason I am writing this review. He was immediately hostile and when my friend or I tried to speak he told us to be quiet. Literally those exact words. He tried to argue that the tattoo is fine and just a touch up, It's not a touch up at all, it's fully just bad I also attached a picture of what I asked for. If you start at the head and trace the tattoo you can see that the snake is just decapitated. He told me to not tell him what a touch up is. Every time we tried to talk to another person in the shop he would tell us to stop talking to them. He refused to give me a full refund saying that people try to lie about not liking tattoos to get refunds but this tattoo clearly just sucks. He offered a free tattoo or piercing but I don't live here which is why i was asking for the refund. The tattoo is pretty bad but i'll get it fixed somewhere else my main problem is just how disrespectful, rude, and degrading this manager is. I got half of my money back but the reason this has 2 stars instead of 1 is because of how genuine and understanding the other artists and receptionist were. As long as Axe is still the manager STAY AWAY!!
