  • I would definitely recommend wanderlust to anyone wanting a tattoo!! The staff was very friendly and willing to work around my schedule to make it happen! My previous tattoo experience at a different shop was not good. I will be coming back here in the future for sure!

  • Lauren was absolutely amazing! I asked for a jellyfish tattoo. She took my ideas and came up with something better than I imagined. She gave great suggestions for placement and colours. Her quote for the length of time was also accurate. She even took time to consult with me on my next piece and I'm excited to see what she comes up with. Everyone in the shop was friendly. Also, thank you to Tee for setting this up and for the quick response to all my emails. This is the place to go if you are looking for a relaxed welcoming experience. Cleanliness: The shop was clean. The needles used were new. I watched her take them out of the packages.

  • It was my first tattoo experience. The ambiance of the shop and the staff were absolutely charming and lovely to talk to! My artist, Lauren was so gentle! I am absolutely in love with her art on my arm and I can’t wait to get more work done on me. ☺️

  • I stopped in from out of town for an impulsive stupid little tattoo on a Sunday. They were the only shop available and willing. The artist, an owner of the shop (I'm terrible with names) put in far more effort in to my little tattoo than I had hoped and expected. I will be back again. Thanks.

  • What a kind, inclusive, welcoming shop. Got tattooed by Lauren Carr who is an absolute gem of a human, but the entire team and vibe is just so great. 11/10 tattoo experience.
