Mad Max did a killer job. Definitely will be going back again soon. All staff is very friendly and its a comfortable atmosphere for first tattooers
I’ve visited The Human Canvas on multiple occasions, and I’ve had nothing but good experiences. The atmosphere is friendly, the shop clean and comfortable, and the talent is some of the best around! Highly recommend these guys👍
i got my first tattoo yesterday! the tattoo is in my nana’s handwriting and i absolutely love it! Mad Max did such a great job! it’s only took him 10 minutes and was over before i know it but he also took his time to make sure everything was looking good! affordable and reasonable prices! i definitely recommend Mad Max and Hope (Hope did my sister’s tattoo and did such a great job too) and i definitely recommend going here to get your first tattoo and future tattoos!!! i can’t wait for my tattoo to heal. (the first picture was from this morning and it’s already looking so good after the next day!) (the second picture was right after he did it) i’m definitely coming back for future tattoos!!
From start to finish it has been a great experience here. prices are reasonable, and they have a lot of very talented artists. if you are looking to get a tattoo I highly recommend them.
