Westside Midway Tattoo

My gal, Neener, is doing her thing here now.
I absolutely LOVE her work. She’s so versatile and professional that I can’t wait to get more work done by her.
She just did a piece on me recently and it was everything I wanted and so much more that I actually cried (in a good way) after I saw it in the mirror. She didn’t have any work like that prior in her portfolio — but looking at my tatt — you’d never know.
She’s that phenomenal! She even fit in my requests about having hidden images, etc. in the piece and it was perfect.perfect.perfect. — exactly I wanted.
I can’t say enough good things about her. She’s just fabulous and works from Noon till Nine or so, Thursday through Sunday. I think she also takes appointments on Mondays.
Check it outttt…

All of the good artists left because the owner is douchebagel.

Go here. You will walk out with an amazing tattoo. Mike Sirot is my artist but I have seen great work come from the other artist too.

This shop is amazing. I have been coming to Mike Sirot for over a year and I am in love with the professionlism, cleanliness and his amazing attention to detail. I highly recommend Mike and this shop.

REVIEW FOR TATTOO & PIERCING
Tattoo– I have gone to Kris Kezar for all the pieces I have. He is very nice, definitely funny and just has a great attitude. His ability to draw is remarkable and that’s what I like about him, he can work in all different artistic mediums which makes him a better tatttoo artist. I have never had a problem with one of his tattoos and if you have ANY questions at ll he does very well and answering them. Great artist, great person, will only got to him for my tattoos.
Piercing-​I had my industrial pierced by Doc Ian for good quality and a great price. I saw a review that complained about the quality of the piercing metal, I don’t know what’s wrong with hers but mine has not tarnished, once I have had my industrial since ¹²⁄₂₀₁₁. The jewelry actually surprised me because I only paid $ 45? I expected something less than great but the barbell I received was internally threaded (
) which is the jewelry preferred by the Association of Professional Piercers because it allows better healing and does not snag skin when removed and inserted. Also, most industrial piercings are 14G, I noticed he did mine with a 16G when I inquired why he explained that my ear was not the size of say an average man and that 16G looked more suitable for my anatomy. He went further to express his dislike for the piercing mentality ‘One Size Fits All’ because everyone is simply not the same.
I thought Ian was a very gentle guy and he spoke very well to me, I asked him a lot of questions about his piercing styles and techniques and he articulated himself very well.
One thing I can complain about it that I did not receive printed care instructions either, but I did ask about how to care for the piercing when I was there and was told them verbally.
Overall, I would return to Ian for his knowledge and not need to go to Enigma Tattoo or Church of Steel for the same knowledge and higher price! (Got belly button pierced at Church of Steel; piercing, jewelry and H2Ocean came out to $ 90)

Ian is the absolute worst piercer. I went here recently and reluctantly to get an industrial piercing. first of all, he gave me no aftercare instructions. A few days after i got home, i started to realize the jewelry he used was of a low quality because it seemingly started to tarnish. I can’t speak for the tattoo aspects of the shop, i have heard good things on that end– but when it comes to piercing, i do not recommend Ian. He came off as careless, lazy, and generally unconcerned with his clientele.

I’ve always had nothing but wonderful work done from Midway Tattoo!
I have had multiple tattoos done from there and I will continue to get my ink from them.
I’m always getting compliments about my ink from strangers and When people come to me asking who I recommend for tattoos I always point them to Midway!

Everyone was very friendly! Chris Dykes is an amazing artist. The tattoo came out perfect. Just what I wanted. Shop was cute and clean. Would definitely recomend this to anyone.
