Best KPortal Reviews

My best friend and I have a tradition of getting tattoos together and decided to visit Peyton. We cannot say enough good things. He communicated well, priced fairly, enjoyed and supported our designs and followed requested changes. He was easy to talk to, patient, and thorough. Nothing felt rushed or like it was just business. He is SO talented. Thank you so much Peyton!
I've had two sessions with Lexie who is amazing! The shop itself is very clean and relaxing. The whole experience from designing the tattoo to the finished product has been delightful. Lexie is a great artist and really gives feedback on how to incorporate my random ideas. She is really patient as well (this was my first big piece). I 100% recommend coming here!
Had a great experience from start to finish! Gina was easy to get in contact with, listened to what I was looking for, and took inspo photos into consideration when making the design and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Everyone at the shop was friendly and I’d recommend Gina to anyone!
I’ve been going to Hunter for tattoos for the better part of a year (closing in on 20 done!) and from day one he has been on it! Before him I would just get tattoos done wherever, but now I can’t imagine going to anyone else. He’s always on top of it, super collaborative, and makes the whole experience enjoyable.
The work itself is always complimented and has opened up some really cool opportunities for me, and it’s 100% because of the quality of work he does. You won’t be disappointed booking with him!
I got a piece done by Mikey at the end of July and had a great experience. He worked with me to create the design, and I’m absolutely in love with how it turned out. He made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. I also really just loved the vibe of the studio. After I got the piece done, I had multiple people ask me if it was fake, because the line work was so precise and fine. I will definitely be booking with Mikey again in the near future! :)
First photo is immediately after the piece was done on July 31, second is on October 4 and healed.
if you are looking for someone trustworthy, who will treat you with the upmost care and respect, don't hesitate to book with Kay! i initially messaged her about doing a custom piece for my partner's first tattoo, and from start to finish it was such a positive experience for us. the shop is bright and well decorated, so you feel welcome as soon as you step in. when it came time for our appointment, Kay went above and beyond to make us comfortable! she is very knowledgeable about her work, and even took the time to show and explain the various needles she was using. not once did it ever feel like she was impatient or rushing, she put so much care into it which shows in the finished piece. Kay was so sweet and fun, she even voted for my mom's dog in a pet contest after hearing me talk about it, we genuinely had a wonderful time with her. we can't wait to go back for more tattoos! i can't recommend this place enough ♡
this shop is incredibly unprofessional. looking at other reviews, is seems as though their inability to communicate and manage time is unfortunately consistent. i remember i had booked with an artist and it was canceled (by them) once if not twice due to their inability to manage time. i just decided to not reschedule because that was the only day i had free for a while, knowing that someday again i will book in the future. boy was i wrong.
i have reached out to THREE different artists at this shop. no response. no acknowledgement. for days, weeks even. their unprofessionalism is very evident and if they lack common communication skills then i cannot imagine the entire process onward. there have been previous reviews of the artist no showing clients? that doesn’t surprise me at this point.
overall i would say that this business does not showcase good work ethic and i would not want permanent art on my body from someone who simply can’t reply to an inquiry and handle their business in an efficient, professional way.
I had my first tattoo done at the Mandala Effect by Kaylie! They did an amazing job! She took my vision and ran with it. I really appreciated how clean the space is! The staff are all super fun and artistic! I highly recommend The Mandala Effect!
