Went to get a transmutation circle done on my right forearm and Matthew did it perfect! I went to three other tat shops and they all said there was no way that anyone there could do it like I wanted, but Matthew was undaunted and upbeat and did a beautiful piece of alchemy on me. I went back again to get some sacred geometry done and Biggs did an amazing job on this newest addition! It is mesmerizing, a truly breathtaking piece of art and I get compliments on it everyday. My wife also has two tattoos from Taboo that are like walking symmetry done by Chelsi and I love looking at them everyday! It seems that no matter who does work on you at Taboo, you will always come away with a piece that you are spellbound by.

Definitely going back...

Went here a few months ago to get my tongue pierced. I had done research on several different places and was referred to here by a friend of mine. I read the reviews and everyone had great things to say about it. I went and had Tim do my piercing and he was very cool about the whole thing. Everything there was steril and the place looked clean all around. The people were great and made me feel really comfortable. It was a quick process and he went over everything I needed to know about the cleaning and possible side effects of getting pierced. He also told me a few tricks to help with possible swelling. I plan on getting another tat plus another piercing, I will definitely be going back here to get my work done.

Worst Mistake Ever Made

I had a lizard put on my shoulder by CLYNT COSTLY for $250 and it's horrible!!! I was on vacation when i had it done and I'll NEVER do that again! Tattooist always say "You can add but you can't take away" well exactly! The lizard is rainbow striped when i wanted it to gradually change and the legs are not proportionate to the arms. There is no fading from one color to the next (which is what i wanted). He asked if i wanted shadowing to make it pop out. At the time i trusted his judgment and said "whatever makes it look best"and he put the shading. Because the lizard wasn't drawn to look three dimensional the shadowing makes it look wrong. He also made a blatent mistake! The shadowing for the head was by the leg and he put the shadowing of the tongue right next to the actual tongue. He put pigment coloring over where he made a mistake but the red never went away. There's liability when you get a tattoo and we are going through with suing the tattoo shop because of how horrible it turned out.



I am so upset from the experience that I wont get another tattoo again because any idiot can pick up a tattoo gun and i found that out the hard way! He was blaring Tom Petty and buzzing the tattoo gun to the beat the entire time. I wonder if they drug test at this tattoo shop because he had to be on something to ruin my dream of having an awesome tattoo. I am embarassed of it and don't want to show it off. This shouldn't be the case considering how much i spent. I'm back home in WA now and I'm being told that it will cost the same amount i paid in the first place just to get it fixed. CLYNT COSTLY must take tattooing as a joke based on what my tattoo looks like and I'm not laughing. There have been 10 different tattooist who have looked at my tattoo and every one has shook their head at how terrible it looks and it upsets me that they 'laugh at my pain' so to speak. He does not deserve to have a job.

I have gotten pierced there several times and the facilities are ALWAYS clean and sanitary. The staff is very friendly and knowledgable. Always a great experience for me.
