Felipe is the shizzz! Real deal artist. He spent the time getting to know what I like and what I don't, did a great job fixing up my hands. Definitely getting all my tats here from now on.
I had the absolute best experience at Good Honest Tattoos. Felipe worked really well with me designing the tattoo I wanted. I cannot be happier. Best in the game.
Had the pleasure of getting my whole leg tattooed by Felipe over 8 sessions. The quality, care, and detail is second to none. Unforgettable experience.
