I got my tattoo with Summer and it's absolutely beautiful! I also went in a couples months following the tattoo to get it touched up, which was completely free. The vibes are super welcoming and Summer made me feel totally comfortable, whether it was discussing what I wanted to change/keep with her design or constantly checking to make sure I was feeling okay. Definitely plan on coming back to her with my future tattoo ideas!
