Single Orchid is such a beautiful studio and a perfect place for a new tattoo! I worked with Omar and he was absolutely amazing! I couldn’t get him an exact photo of what I wanted but what he created was exactly what I had in my brain. His talent is breath taking! Everyone here is so kind and shows excitement for your new tattoo!

From the moment you walk in, they provide a CLEAN & welcoming environment. Omar was my artist and he took his time designing the PERFECT tattoo! He made sure I was okay throughout the process, and was communicative regarding the design, my time and comfort. 10/10 experience !

The shop was impeccably clean, and the decor was awesome. All of the staff was so friendly and kind, I’ve gotten work done by Nick for a few years and he is such a talented artist, does incredible tattoos, and offers great hospitality. I get compliments everywhere I go, I couldn’t recommend this shop more. Looking forward to finishing off my sleeve in the future!

I’ve been going to Michael for a few years now and I recently went to his new spot Carcosa and I loved it. Everyone was so nice, the other artists were coming in and speaking to us, offering beverages. The vibes were great, and I have even followed other artists from the shop who do immaculate art work. Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend

I researched tattoo artists for a year before booking with Lia! She’s the “real deal” and she has now created three of my most favorite tattoos. She is a true artist and amazing teacher to the other amazing artists in the shop. I also see Sierra for my monthly facials and am very happy with the service and the exceptional products she uses and offers for purchase. The shop is clean, well organized and has a very welcoming and chill energy. I would recommend Lia and Sierra to my family and friends looking for talented and kind humans who excel in their chosen fields. Additionally, my 17 year old daughter just got her first nose piercing with Danny! He was thorough in answering all of our questions and super kind throughout the whole process. My daughter is very happy with her piercing and remarked how she will go back to Danny for her next one. Again Rarity Tattoo & Beauty is a full service studio with exceptionally rad people!

This place is amazing, clean and nice ambiance. We gifted our 7yr old granddaughter her ears pierced and her experience was exceptional. Danny is an amazing person and professional, super nice explaining everything. She is so excited with her beautiful earrings and an a very positive experience she will never forget. For that, we thank you Danny 🙂

Great experience! Ross and Joe are two of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. First tattoo so not sure what to expect but I called on a Saturday morning and Ross had an opening so I dropped in, discussed my idea and he took that vision, shaped it and produced an amazing sketch. Couldn’t be happier with the result!

Had the pleasure of getting art by Sara and loved the whole process! I found her on Instagram and was able to get one of her designs. She explained what she was doing and what expectations to have since it was my first hand-poked piece. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking to get a unique piece.

Had such an amazing experience getting my first hand poked tattoo with Sara and she made the experience worth wild! Between how amazing her designs are and how nice Sara and everyone in the shop was I felt so comfortable getting my tattoo done. The shop itself is beautiful, peaceful, and welcoming.

I got my first ever tattoo today with Joe, and it was a wonderful experience. His professionalism, cleanliness, dedication to the craft, and demeanor were all wonderful. He answered all of the questions I had and he did everything he could to make me comfortable, while also having great casual conversation! His quality and customer service matched with his quick hand also added serious points for me. I came from Tampa to get this done, and I’d love to come back for my next one!
Justin Cruz
Greatest tattoo experience of my life! The shop itself is beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean. I cannot express how comforting that is in a tattoo parlor.
I had given loose instructions for what I was looking for to Joe and he designed a beautiful tattoo. The process itself was as painless as any tattoo has ever been. I sat for just about three hours and I could’ve easily done another three. Joe was obviously very skilled but also incredibly professional. I will only go to this shop in the future, absolutely the BEST!

Alex is one of the nicest guys you’d ever want to meet. I had him tattoo Two Tribal Mourning bands on my forearm. It looks amazing. He is very professional, shop is spotless, is very meticulous when it comes to his instruments which by the way are all disposable. He takes his time. Friendly staff! I highly recommend Alex and his crew. 5 stars all the way!!
Metrohouse Designs,LLC
Full disclosure, Alex is a friend of mine but in all honesty he is an amazing tattoo artist. Have had tattoos by 3 other artists prior to Alex and the ones I have from him are much better than my previous tattoos. He was able to complete a partial tattoo started by another artist so seamlessly you can’t tell that 2 different artists worked on it. His shop has a great feel to it with some great art hanging on the walls, including some of his own paintings. Does amazing work at reasonable prices. Will never go to another artist.

Fabio is an extremely talented artist and sweet person. He helped me design a memorial piece with just 1 reference photo and a couple of ideas and he ran with it and created a masterpiece. He is kind, professional, and easy to talk to! His studio is very clean and the decor is just right! He took his time with every little line and detail. The outcome of my tattoo exceeded any of the expectations I had when I walked through the door. I can’t wait to return for another piece. I will be recommending him to all of my friends and family members! Thank you for a special experience and beautiful tattoo, Fabio!
Sara Brenner
Absolutely love my tattoos. This was my first time ever getting one and Fabio was amazing! He is very kind and very professional. Walked me through the process, made me feel very comfortable. Love the work that was done. Definitely recommend him and will for sure be sharing his contact info to family and friends as well as going back again! Highly recommend him!!!

This was an incredible experience! Marco, the owner did a beautiful job on my very first tattoo. He worked diligently with me on the design for weeks leading up to the appointment. I must admit that I was very indecisive and didn’t stop asking for modifications until I thought it was absolutely perfect. He handled my requests with great patience and grace. Once I got to the studio, he took the time to finalize the design, showing it to me as he was finishing it. He used an image I sent to him earlier to create the color scheme during the session. He was super polite, kind, easy going and professional from start to finish. He also played some badass music while he was working:). We had so many great conversations during the 5ish hours I was there. His detailed work is remarkable and his ability to blend colors is seamless. I would 100% recommend Marco to anyone looking to get a tattoo. I will definitely be back to see him if I ever decide to get more work done.
Thank you Marco, for my beautiful Phoenix Rising tattoo! You have no idea how happy I am with how it turned out. You’re an incredible artist!Jennifer Behan
Marco is an awesome tattoo artist! He has done a few of our tattoo’s and they all came out amazing! He is especially good with realistic tattoo’s. He has a real eye for detail! Will definitely be going back!

Really amazing studio. Everyone is very friendly and close knit. I had an amazing experience with Dee – fantastic and very kind tattooist. Absolutely astounding color work, flexibility, and table-side manner. I don’t think I need to go anywhere else anytime soon.

I had been searching for a black and grey realism artist when I came across Ryan Eternal’s portfolio and I knew this was the artist I wanted to have create my next tattoo. From booking to the completed piece, the process was super easy. Ryan is so down to earth, friendly, and easy to chat with that he puts you at ease immediately. His artistry speaks for itself and his “bedside manner” is top notch. He has a light hand and worked quickly but without skimping on detail. My new tattoo is a memorial piece for my dad and it brought me to tears when I saw the finished product. I am completely in love with my new ink and I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience
Tracey Sobczyk
If you’re looking for some amazing tattoo work, built 4 speed is the place to go, very clean, calm, happy atmosphere. With some every talented tattoo artist. My dude Ryan never cease to amaze me with his artwork and his detail in every tattoo that he has done. Thank you for this amazing new piece
