I'm writing this review to warn people of Mike Boyd.. horrible experience; the guy is a complete sadist who seems to enjoy inflicting pain on others. I dont have alot of tattoos and decided to get one from him based on his artwork I saw.( bad mistake) It was a about a 2 hour session; I repeatedly asked for a break because I was in pain and uncomfortable in which he straight up refused to give me 1 when I asked multiple times and responded with" no, stop being a baby, it doesnt hurt that bad"... the tattoo turned out okay but my horrible experience overrules the artwork and everytime I look at it , it just reminds me of the terrible experience I had. He lacks human compassion, didnt even attempt to have a conversation with me, I felt belittled and unimportant as a client. It seemed as if I was his personal canvas and not an actual client. He lacks interpersonal communication skills and doesnt even make an attempt/effort to treat you like an actual client that he truly cares about. I'm writing this review as a warning to anybody who chooses him as your artist to know what to expect. Besides that HUGE issue The shop itself is super clean & nice and from what I saw the other artists seemed very polite and nice. I will definitely never go back to him anymore because of
my experience nor will reccomend him to anybody. He needs to work on his empathy skills towards other people more than he needs to work on his tattooing skills , totally unprofessional and rude.
