I have been getting tattooed by Mallory B for almost 10 years now. I have had an excellent experience with her at every juncture.
Talon Tattoo is VERY clean and comfortable. I know that this shop is clean and upholds the local standards for health and safety.
Mallory is also a wonderful person and artist to talk to, she can carry on a conversation with anyone and is incredible at her craft and art. She is also great at keeping appointments and her schedule. And on the rare occurrence when she has needed to reschedule, I have gotten back on her books within a few week. While this sounds normal to most people, many tattoo artists are horrible with scheduling, planning and preparation. This is not the case for Mallory and her team at Talon Tattoo.
The only reason I am giving it 5 stars, is you cannot give anymore :)
Over the years, I have come to this shop on many occasions. If someone I know wants a tattoo, I send them here. I have even gotten my girlfriend a gift card from Ioana Anghelescu or @anghel.Tattoos on Instagram. At this point, I have gotten about 3-5 tattoos for her, and I decided it was time to write a review since I have a good base of experience.
I have always had a great experience with Izzy; she is prompt, communicative, and understanding. One appointment, I ended up being 45 minutes late because I accidentally fell asleep, she was kind and understanding! And on another appointment, I had asked her to get there as early as she could, so we could start and be done before noon, which is exactly what happened, when I walked in at my appointment time, she was always ready to go with her equipment ready!
I cannot recommend going to see Izzy at Talon Tattoo, enough! She is a great and honest artist who wants to make you happy and give you the best work...
Read moreI reached out for an appointment in June after falling in love with the Instagram page and being recommended by several friends. It said there was a few weeks expected for response time due to demand; no problem, I considered it worth the wait and waited until the artist reached out to me via email. After an extremely brief discussion of what I was looking for, I paid the artist a deposit to book my appointment, at which time they said they would "probably draw most of it straight on my skin," meaning I have not received even a basic sketch of what they supposedly planned to do for my requested piece. I have requested a consultation prior to my appointment several times to go over what I want in more detail and be sure I understood what to expect for time and cost, and have gotten no reply since the day I paid the deposit. Several months later, my appointment was supposed to be a couple weeks from now, and I have still not been able to get in touch with the artist, or anyone at the shop at all. Artist no longer responds to email or Instagram, salon does not respond to Instagram, and unable to get through by phone at all or even leave a voicemail. To say I'm disappointed is an...

I've had two tattoos done there so far, and my experience had always been AMAZING. Ionna did my death moth, and was phenomenal. I hadn't had a tattoo in years and she was very kind and patient. Her style is unlike anyone else's. Mallory did my calf tattoo which was was such an emotional one for me for reasons, in addition to my cat passing away shortly before it was done. Mallory didn't hesitate to incorporate her nose print in to the design and let me process my emotions during the whole ordeal.
I've always felt welcome and accepted there, there's no doubt in my mind that it is my go-to shop from now on. Mallory has done a great job making the place feel like a home to anyone who walks in there....
