Ryan is the man! Did a random walk in, not expecting much given it was a Sunday a few hours from closing. But the folks at ironhide welcomed me in like I had been a customer forever and once ryan got to work it became clear this is a man or discipline and precision The result is the best looking tattoo I have to date. 15/10 would recommend
