Best KPortal Reviews

I’ve been getting tattooed by Wesley since I was 18 - I’m 24 now. He’s the only artist I’ve ever worked with in Kansas City, all of my other work has been done out-of-town.
He’s done all of my geometric and mandala tattoos, we’re working on a half body suit now. Almost done with a full sleeve of my arm.
I also have a couple of more neo-traditional and traditional things he’s done, I think I have 7 or 8 tattoos done by him.
Wesley does a fabulous job working through ideas with clients & executing exactly what you want, whether you know what you want or not! He is knowledgeable, kind & works efficiently. Highly recommend.
Kila’s is a great place to hang out while having work done! Everyone is welcoming & excited about each other’s work.
Kila’s dope, period. Professional but personable and her work speaks for itself. I’ll definitely be getting more work done by her.
Kila is professional, talented, and friendly. Her shop was clean, she was patient as I played with an idea, and even though this first one from her was small and quick, the shading and detail on my medium brown skin tone demonstrated her skill. I will definitely be heading back soon for a larger piece on my back!
Marques @Swavidotattoos is amazing and one of the best tattoo artists ever. He is respectful, and takes his time. He makes sure you're comfortable with how the tattoo will look before he even starts. Marques treats you like a person not just a canvas.
My dghtr and I went in for our consultation. Right then I knew we were coming back to get the tattoos. The whole process was smooth. She charges by the hour but works diligently with precision. My dghtr and I were in and out. Oh and my young og self ain't bout that life so I had her put numbing cream on me which worked wonders! Already excited to go back for more!
I waited till the next morning to leave a review to also describe what waking up was like. I cleaned it with summer's eve and applied aquaphor before bed. Little to no pain waking up and barely sore while cleaning morning after! A+
I’ve been seeing Kila for years now, she is truly such a genuine soul an truly cares,
Now when it comes to her work...
Hands down the best female tattoo artist in Kansas City
She’s done both my sleeves my back and a few other little pieces.
Every tattoo I have looks fantastic actually immaculate.
If I ever had to give a recommendation it would certainly be to her.
Highly highly highly recommend
Absolutely phenomenal tattoo parlor! The atmosphere was very clean and professional, and my tattoo artist Noelle was literally the BEST artist I've received a tattoo from across the states! She was able to sketch the exact tattoo I wanted from hand, and completed it with ease. All equipment was sterile from new packaging, and they even accommodated with high end proper aftercare. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the KC area, local or touring!!!
