Kats Tats

I had came in to have my first tattoo done and right from the first interaction I knew this would be a good experience. It took two and a half hours and cost $ 350. I thought it cost a little much but I’d rather pay more, and have a professional do it. So overall I give Kat a 5 star rating just because have how happy I am with the finished product, after having it a year I wouldn’t change a thing!(:

I’ve gotten my ears pierced by Kat at the Owatonna location and was happy with my experience…
…unfortunately I don’t have anything nice to say about the Albert Lea shop. I have tried calling them several times over the last couple months and always get voice mail. They pretty much NEVER answer the phone. I stopped in a couple times to get piercings, because I couldn’t get a hold of them on the phone. The first time the piercer told me that he didn’t have his piercing equipment with him and couldn’t do it. The second time I was told that he was out on leave. By the time he finally returned my call, I had already driven to Cactus Tattoo in Mankato, because they are my favorite and they run a really professional shop. Kats Tats lost out on six piercings. They lost out on ~$ 400 and a $ 50 tip!
Now, because I didn’t want to drive all the way to Mankato just to get some jewelry switched out… I tried calling 3 different times on a FRIDAY! More of the same… nothing but voicemail. ANSWER YOUR DAMN PHONE AND MAYBE YOU’LL GET SOME BUSINESS!

Best tattoo artist in town! Kats tats is an upscale tattoo parlor, It is fresh open and clean. The staff have been extremely helpful and they actually listen to what the customer wants and will advice against bad decisions so you don’t get something you will eventually regret. And she is moving to a new location which sounds like its going to be better than what shes currently in.
Unfortunately people in the surrounding area may hear differently due to an employee she had — he was terminated and has the «bitter I hate everything about you attitude» so of course this person is attempting to destroy an awesome business. This employee unfortunately also stole from us he took a deposit for a tattoo and claimed the $ 100 as a «tip»
The owner was sincere and she not only took this persons actions in stride BUT she also is going to finish the tattoo. That just shows that the owner and current staff have nothing but their customers best interest at heart .
I am very happy that this business is in our town and I can not wait till the new location opens, with what is all but described as a day spa for tattoo shop: O)
