 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had multiple tattoos done by Max and his work is fantastic! All my tattoos, some being years old now, have all held amazingly. The atmosphere in the shop is super friendly and everything is always super clean. I would recommend 10/10 ⭐️
