THe Shoppe Tattoo

BEWARE.
My tattoo "artist" was Jim. I've attached pictures of the tattoos to my review. I am 17 now, but was 16 when I got the tattoos as it was December of 2019. The reason I didn't upload a review until now is because me and mother have been trying to get a refund, but nobody would get us in contact with the managers no matter how many times we came in. My mom meant to schedule at True Love Tattoo but called here by mistake and considering the pictures and the 4.4 star review, we decided that it'd probably be just as good. My tattoos weren't even a little bit good. The writing was shaky, the ink was barely there in some places and when I asked him if he was going to fix things, or expressed my concern at how horrible it was, he would press harder with the needle thing causing me pain while telling me angrily that it was "his art". He refused to refund us and told me to come back for touch ups in 2 weeks if I had an issue, which I obviously wasn't going to allow him to go anywhere near my skin again. Every time we've come for a refund, they've said they'll pass the message on to the managers and we've never heard back and they won't provide us with a phone number or a way to contact them. After getting this horrible tattoo, I went through the bad reviews and found one about Jim giving a racist rant. I caution people to stay away and not contribute to the success of this business, especially POC. I spent hundreds getting them covered up.

They charged me $120 for this tattoo, and he spent 40 minutes drawing them out, upping the cost because they charge by time.
