Under the Gun Tattoo Studio — Local services in Columbus

My Daughter-in-Law and I wanted matching tattoos – something that represented family, strength and when brought together represented the love we have for our families. She suggested we go to Under The Gun Tattoo where we were greeted by Bryan Hoff. We explained to Bryan what we wanted – he gave us some more realistic ideas about the design and then gave us the perfect tattoo!

I was so impressed with Bryan’s work that I went back a 2nd time. Only this time what I had originally wanted and the placement he said just wouldn’t work. So he asked me if I had any other ideas and of course I did and I pretty much gave Bryan the freedom to do what he does BEST and he gave me exactly what I didn't even know I wanted.

Bryan is just simply superb at his job. His kindness, expertise, professionalism and artistry allowed for an amazing experience. When you talk to Bryan about your ideas it’s very apparent he is so passionate about his work and puts a lot of emphasis on the after care. I absolutely LOVE my new tattoo and I'll definitely be back to add more to it!! Thanks Bryan - See...

I was going to be going through town and decided I wanted some ink. A couple weeks before I left for Ohio, I called Under The Gun Tattoo Studio in Columbus. I spoke to Jester Morningstar on the phone. We instantly clicked and she said that she would be able to do what I wanted. Likewise, she didn't even take the deposit saying she was going to be there one way or the other anyway. She just reminded me to bring my ID.

When I got there and walked in the door, she did not disappoint at all. I looked at her she asked me my name, and I told her. I then said, "And you will be doing my tattoo." Instantly, she knew who I was and again she and I clicked from the get go. She went out of her way to make my son and I feel welcome.

The black is 100% solid and the lines are crisp. So far no scabbing and if there is, I feel that it will be minimal. She has a very light hand and knows her stuff.

Jester is down to earth with a good sense of humor and all in all just a talented artist and beautiful soul.

Thanks for the good work and a memorable first night back...

I’ve been a customer at UTG for about six years now. I couldn’t be more pleased with the work I received from both Christian and Kyle both. They have a very clean line of communication understanding my idea for tattoos and expressing to me what works and what doesn’t an why (this was very important to me. I’ve seen other artists who just say no they can’t do something I’ve requested, end of story) I would always suggest contacting them first for an appointment. The shop is clean, up-to-date, has fair prices and has a friendly inviting atmosphere. I’ve never once here actually felt like a customer. They always make me feel more like a friend and I greatly appreciate that. I could go on applauding them, but I’ll just say that I’ve had tattoos done from Coast to Coast and after my first piece of work done by them I’ll never go anywhere else. Thank you so much for being a beautiful rays of sunshine the tattoo community, so desperately needs! 10 out of 10...
