    Colby did a fantastic job with my tattoo. I brought a picture for a general idea and let him take artistic freedom from there. It's more than I hoped for. Everyone there was friendly and not pretentious. I am 40 yrs. old and don't look like someone that'd have and want tattoos. This was my third tattoo and the best experience of all. Thanks Colby!! I'll definately be back and will recommend y...

  36. Steve does excellent work!
    I went to a few of the local shops to get prices and see how I felt about who would be most likely to give me the tattoo that I had in my mind. Working with Phoenix was a positive experience all around. I couldn't be happier with the results.

    Me & my Fiance had tattoos done by Colby & Marco Last night. I traveled outside of my comfort zone away from my usual artist and they delivered some of the best work ive seen. Staff is very professional and courteous. Also very understanding and have a great perception of what you want and can make it coem to life for you. I recommend them & will be returning to have more added to this tattoo....

    I moved to Raleigh Nov. '08, and have been searching for a tattoo artist since then. I had taken a design I wanted to a tattoo shop in the area and told them I wanted it as it was drawn, with no black outline. The man behind the counter proceeded to tell me that it would look better with the outline, and that it would look stupid without it. So I left and got on Citysearch and found Phoenix Tatto...

    First time getting ink in Raleigh and it will not be my last, staff is very professional, very clean and well organized parlor. They have a great website with all the artists work displayed which makes your decision very easy. I highly recommend Phoenix if your looking for new ink. Lacie was great, I will definetly be back.

    Marco that works at Pheonix tatoo just gave me my first tatoo. I love him. I went to blue flame first...big mistake. I was told that my simple tatoo would cost 180 bucks and that it pretty much kinda sucked in so many words. WOW!!!! I know, seriously?? So I left and went to phoenix and talked to Marco (who made me feel like a million dollars) who made my dream of getting a tatoo happen. Simple, 6...

    Everyone was polite and helpful from the first time I walked in to the shop. Steve is an amazing artist. He took the time to listen to me describe what I wanted and he showed genuine interest in my ideas. He designed an amazing tattoo for me and did a stellar job putting it on me. I could not be happier. A+++++

    I have wanted a tattoo for about 10 years and finally decided to bite the bullet and get one done. We are from Chicago, so we searched Citysearch for a parlor and Phoenix came highly recommended. Even though they were busy, Kelly was able to fit both my husband and myself in right away. When you walk in the shop is clean, bright, and inviting and all the artists are very nice. We worked w...

    I walked in out of the rain with a bunch of printed ideas for two tattoos I wanted to get. The receptionist immediately came over to assist me, little did i know i was going into too much detail on what i wanted and didn't realize she only asked a simple question =) She sent me right over to Marco where he figured out exactly what i was trying to communicate with my little pictures.

  45. Good times.....
    Let me preface this review by saying I am a pain in the A$$ and very demanding. I decided on a design around the first of 2009 and tried to find an artist that i believed would do it justice. I found one on line 500 miles away in PA. and called for an appointment. He was booked 60 days out. (This was June) During this wait I came accross the Phoenix facebook page and noticed Lacies work th...

    I had my first tattoo designed by Steve. He was incredible! He took a picture I brought in and redrew it more beautifully than I could have ever imagined, and then the final work was detailed and colored to perfection. It was so much more than I had hoped for, I could not be happier. (well, except for the pain of it all but that is another story) The atmosphere is clean but I would prefer ...

    Wow! I'd been to Warlocks before and found a lot of attitude. At Blue Phoenix I felt comfortable and safe. I watched the artist, Lacie, open the needles and cover everything in plastic. She explained what we would do and how to handle aftercare. You know a tattoo artist is good when you have to ask them to stop for a sec because you have to laugh. Even while doling out the pain, Lacie was f...

    I got my first tattoo at Phoenix and had an excellent experience with Lacie as my artist. She did an absolutely outstanding job at bringing my beloved image to life. The aftercare instructions were explained thoroughly and the environment was exceedingly clean. I could not have been happier with my experience and will definitely go back. I highly recommend Phoenix!

  51. Wouldn't Go Again
    Like you have read in the other posts, the male receptionist almost made me turn around and leave. He was very arrogant and acted as if he did not want the business. I have four other tattoos that I have gotten at Warlocks and Buck-A-Tattz. On the recommendation of a friend, I thought I would give Phoenix a try. For all other tattoos, I will go to Buck-A-Tattz. At least there, you are provided...

    I just got my first tattoo at Phoenix and had a very good experience with Steve as the artist. He was very approachable and made me feel very comfortable. He did some great color work for me (based on my vague image and description) to make my design really pop, and I have gotten so many heartfelt compliments already. I would say though, the receptionist (girl) was pretty goofy over the p...

    This is my first tattoo and it took me a long time to find a studio and artist I liked. After looking at other studios in town, I met with Steve and showed him the design I had and he was very professional and understanding during our conference. He took the time to talk to me about the meaning behind the design and he discussed the minor tweaks he made to it before finalizing the design. Some of...

    After receiving a personal recommendation from someone close to me, I decided to get my most recent tattoo at Phoenix. The experience was fantastic - the staff I dealt with was very pleasant and accomodating. I can't say enough positive things about Steve, the artist who did my tattoo. He took my barebones design of a lotus flower and turned it into a work of art. He's amazing, and I would recomm...

    This is the best tattoo studio in Raleigh. I've been twice and recommend it to all my friends looking for ink. Steve is my artist and he is great! The artists are all extremely talented while being super friendly and willing to work with you. Great for seasoned tattoo lovers as well as first timers looking to enter the wonderful world of body art. Way better than Blue Flame!

    This is my third tattoo that was done by Lacie Fran over at Phoenix Tattoo. I've been to many shops around town over the last 8 years but once I found Phoenix and Lacie I vowed to never go elsewhere. All the artist are absolutely great!

  71. great tattoing great artists
    Phoenix all around is a nice shop. and I could go on and on about various aspects of the store and my experience but the bottom line is this: when I want a tattoo I want it to be a custom drawn piece, I want it done well - what I don't want is to end up getting ripped off, and I don't want to endure a bad attitude. That is why I go to Phoenix tattoo. thanks guys!
