Mike just did a piece on me yesterday and i am absolutely in love with it. He did an awesome job designing it (a traditional style hedgehog had to be hard to put down on paper), and it pops like crazy. Thanks so much. And I recommend him to all.

I just got a pretty big outline done by Steve on the side of my hip...amazing work going back when this heals to get the shading done :) Everyone in the shop is really nice and makes you feel extremely comfortable unlike other shops in the area. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone!

Ive had work done by both Mike and Silas. Every experience ive had at rocksteady was outstandind. Silas has done the last 3 sittings and the outcome far exceeded my expectations. You WILL pay a little more to get work done here but its money well spent! I wont go anywhere else to get work done. Thanks Silas cant wait to get the back side of my arm done.

I recently had my first tattoo drawn and done by Mike Higgins. The shit is AWESOME! Loved the tatt and had a very relaxed and comfortable experience at the shop while i was getting it. Cant wait to make it bigger dude. Rock Steady is the only place I would ever get a tattoo! The artists at RS are just that...artists!

Hello Gents-
Love the new signs; I can't wait to see the new shop. I went out last night and someone asked if they could take a picture of my Star Trek tattoo. It was kind of awesome.

Hey, I got my first tattoo at Rock Steady! I believe by Demon Dean, in the back room who was from Hawii? Anyways, I got two sparrows on my chest, and I absolutely love them! Perfect lines and colouring, i'm still waiting on getting the other one filled in! And the co-workers are nice, hot, and give off a fun vibe!
