Best KPortal Reviews

Getting a tattoo is a deeply personal experience, and I was fortunate enough to have an incredibly positive one. From start(Dec,15 2022) to finish, my tattoo experience was exceptional. The tattoo artist (David Reece) I worked with was not only highly skilled but also incredibly friendly. They took the time to truly listen to my ideas and vision, and their creativity and expertise brought it to life in a way that exceeded my expectations. The entire process was smooth, comfortable, and professional. The artist's attention to detail and commitment to cleanliness and hygiene put me at ease. I couldn't be happier with the final result of all my tattoos, and I would highly recommend this talented artist to anyone seeking a truly positive tattoo experience. So far I have gotten both arms finished and can’t wait to finish my body suit that I’ve been dreaming of, if I could leave 10 stars I truly would. The swan is still a work in progress and sadly I don’t have any good photos only videos of my dragon(most complemented piece) because it’s a big piece that wraps all around will have updated photos in the near future of the swan.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Gabe, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is truly a master of his craft and has an amazing talent as a tattoo artist. Gabe created a full nature-themed sleeve for me, and the results are absolutely breathtaking.
Gabe's use of color and attention to detail are unparalleled. Every aspect of the design, from the intricate leaves and flowers to the stunning wildlife, was executed flawlessly. I am constantly receiving compliments on my sleeve, and I owe it all to Gabe's incredible artistry.
If you're looking for a skilled and talented tattoo artist, look no further than Gabe. He truly is one of the best in the business, and I would give him 10 stars if I could!
I had Erica pierce my belly button, but little did I know… the jewelry that she used has nickel in it, and she gave me a jewelry that was dangling.. after 1 week I started to notice more redness, pain, and it was starting to get infected.. my belly button was rejecting the piercing . I’ve always kept it clean with H2Oceans piercing spray, I knew something was wrong, so I went to Evolution Ink in Fayetteville and the Piercer that had originally pierced my tongue told me that she used the incorrect jewelry, and the wrong shape for it. And I had to get it taken out and have them put the correct jewelry which is pure titanium! If you get a belly piercing at true tattoo make sure you are known to the consequences you are facing, don’t let your piercing get infected like mine did. Go to Evolution Ink in Fayetteville for the top quality tattoos & piercings you will never have any complications with your piercing!!
This place is absolutely horrendous. The environment is uninviting. The people who work there are definitely not nice. The woman with the massive septum piercing did ours. And not to mention, my tattoo is the worst tattoo I've ever gotten. Don't go here. Please just spare yourself, it's not worth it. If I could give zero stars, I would. I can't do anything but laugh, this tattoo is so bad. Also I got this tattoo with a friend and hers is even worse. So I attached a photo of that too.
I believe the young lady that did my tragus piercing name is Erica. Erica was very polite, knowledgeable and professional. To be honest I've had a number of piercings and this one was the least painful and problematic. After 4 days no pain and the swelling was gone. Cleaned about 3 times a day with saline. I'm 3 weeks in as of today and the piercing is like it has always been there. Thank you Erica.
I have got several tattoos done by David and I love them all. The shop is a very fun environment and I enjoy the people immensely.
I Went in for a nose piercing, and by far the worst customer service I have experienced in a long time. I Just wanted a small stud. Honestly I didn't know exact placement or which side I wanted it on. I expected the piercer to give me their professional opinion on what looked best and you know trusting the supposed "professional". The studio was dead so there was no reason for this girl to be as impatient with me as she was. I know nothing about nose piercing placement other than I wanted a stud I could also interchange with a ring. She Marked my nose and asked if that's where I wanted it. I asked her opinion on if it looked best and she told me She 100% takes herself out of responsibility for location so that If the person doesn't like it it's not on her. I wanted to walk out at that point. I have been waiting years to get this. It has been a big weightloss milestone for me and today was an amazing day that I was not about to let this girl ruin. She started the piercing without asking if I was ready. Luckily I'm covered in tattoos and the initial start of the needle didn't startle me.... I got no aftercare instructions. She just said use saline twice a day but explained nothing. No idea how to change this or how long I need to keep the stud in before changing. It. All things I'll look up myself. I came here because my friend got her daughters ears pierced here and said they were amazing. Unfortunately I would recommend Claire's over this place for piercings!
Awesome experience. The artist made it look as I wanted it on the picture I showed him. He was very friendly and hilarious to talk to. The shop is extremely busy, SO GO IN PERSON, wait patiently and they'll get to you. I went to the shop, showed them a picture for a quote and scheduled an appointment (took 2 minutes), it helps if you bring a picture of what you want, preferably close to the actual size you want the tattoo. They did take walk ins, but it's first come first serve like every other shop.
