I had the absolute best experience with Gwen and the whole team at Gothic Heart.
Environment: you’re not going to find a cooler shop. Gwen turned the tv on in the waiting area, there’s a mini snack bar, and lots of cool art and mirrors for when you inevitably want to take a selfie. The work stations themself are clean and open, making it easy to find something cool to look at while you’re getting tattooed.
Staff: My tattoo was done by Gwen, whose work speaks for itself in terms of talent. But the entire team that was there that day (Justin and Zoe) were also super welcoming and easy to talk with. Everyone made me feel so comfortable with it being my first time in the shop.
Artist: I cannot gush enough about how great Gwen is. Not only is she super sweet, but she took the time to explain where she was in her process and checked on me often to ask if I needed anything or breaks. When we were done she took her time wrapping me up and going over care instructions. Justin was working on a client who was kind enough to show us when they were done and I was amazed at how much talent is in that team. My appointment lasted 7 hours and it genuinely just felt like I was hanging out with friends from start to end.
Seriously, just go here. Every artist is great and I’ve already scheduled my next...
Read moreGwen and Justin at Gothic Heart Tattoo are absolutely amazing! First off, their shop is big and beautiful! It is a dark decor loves dream. They also have complementary snacks and beverages for their clients. The open floor concept where they have their stations makes you feel right at home. You don't feel like you are to close to other clients being worked on and can really focus on your experience with the artist. The artists are extremely professional but so down to earth at the same time. My first tattoo ever was with Justin years ago, talk about an experienced artist! His tattoos of animals and cover ups are bar none. Gwen has been working on my sleeves the last few years. Talk about talent, Gwen's art is beyond beautiful. She can truly bring my ideas to life in ways I couldn't have dreamed of! I couldn't recommend either artist more! Mount Vernon, OH is lucky to have such talented professionals artists in our small town. You would think they were artists in a big city for the flawless...
Read moreGwen and Justin put so much love and care into created a stunning, comfortable studio!The lobby is gorgeous, and the area where the tattoos are done is very clean and professional. I had the pleasure of getting 2 tattoos from Gwen this weekend and she was amazing! Her designs were exactly what I wanted and she helped me decide what placement looked best on my arm. The tattoo process went smoothly and she made sure I was sitting comfortably and doing okay the entire time. Both tattoos look beautiful and I’m so happy with them!
I’ve been tattooed by Gwen a few times in the past so talking to her was super easy, but even when I first met her the conversation flowed so naturally. I’m usually a quiet/shy person until I’m comfortable, but she makes the room feel instantly welcoming/comforting every time I talk to her :)
I haven’t been tattooed by Justin, but I’ve talked to him a few times and he’s super nice and easy to talk to!
I highly recommend Gwen and Justin at Gothic...
