Reviews of Talon Tattoo Co

Carol Stimpson

We brought my 9-year old twin girls in today to get their ears pierced for the first time. We had an awesome experience. Lucas helped us. He was really friendly and did great explaining everything to my girls. He gave great after care advice and let us know that we could reach out to them afterwards if we had any questions. Everyone there was super nice and the shop was really clean.

Jenn Jackson

A great experience from start to finish. I can repeat everything that most other reviews have mentioned: clean environment, friendly and professional artists, and fair pricing. Lucas did a conch ear piercing for me and was so kind, gentle, and informative with each step. Ten minutes in and out, but not rushed one bit. Highly recommend!

Elizabeth Rodgers

We went today to get my 17 year old daughter's nose pierced. Heidi was about as professional, kind, empathetic, and reassuring as you would want someone in her position to be. It was an A+ experience: clean, clear, quick, no-nonsense. Great value. Would recommend this place to anyone. Thank you, Heidi for a great experience. -- Cool mom

Leslie Dawn

John was great. It was my first tattoo and Iwas getting my mom's ashes in it, so it was a very emotional experience. He made me feel very comfortable from day one, and his art work is amazing. I just had him draw up my next tattoo. He's booked out 5 months, but worth the wait.

Lauren Gusinow

John & Tiffany both deserve 10/10!! Had an appt for tattoos with my son for his 18th bday. John worked with each of us to adjust the size and placement of our designs and was fabulous during the tattoo process. My son had a bit of a hiccup and Tiffany was right there to assist. We'll return soon to finish my son's tattoo & I may be working on another. Thanks for a great 1st tattoo experience!

Nate V

Tiffany and John are amazing. At this point I have gotten countless hours of work done and consider them family. Love the shop and would recommend the wait to anyone. P.S. Good tattoos aren’t cheap, cheap tattoos aren’t good.

sasha stites

My 11 year old son got his ears pierced at Talon Tatoo. The staff was very friendly and professional. He explained everything he did in detail so my son would be at ease. (he was a little nervous) They did a great job! I would highly recommend.

Jessie Geils

Got both my girl’s ears pierced here they did an incredible job . My girls were ages 4 when we did it because they asked to get them. They did amazing with them. We got my oldest daughters nose pierced here as well she got both sides done and they did amazing as well. Ive also got three tattoos here myself and every tattoo i have got ive loved. Highly recommend this place. Their team they have there is amazing as well.

Ashley Morales

Heidi was absolutely lovely! She pierced my mom, my sister and my helix! We love our new additions and I can’t wait to recommend her to others! Thank you so much!

sydney shoemake

Heidi helped me out by switching my helix piercings and did an amazing job! The atmosphere was super inviting and everyone was so nice! Highly recommend this place!!

Official Snowdrop

Great atmosphere. The staff there are fun and talk you through everything. They explain what and how they are going to do it and ask your opinions. They are not pushy or demanding which makes it a great place for first timers. The pricing is really good. It can be a bit expensive but you are coming in for a thing that lasts forever and sometimes you gotta spend a little more for the best quality. The detail and thorough jobs they do is worth it in the end. There quality is outstanding. From the details of a small tattoo to even a big one. They know what they are doing and are good at it. The piercings are done well. They talk you through it and unlike other places try to handle you with the best care they can as to not hurt you. I highly recommend them and I will be back.

Emily Tasker

Got my helix pierced here a week ago. Lucas was awesome! He walked me through the entire process. He was very considerate and supportive too. The piercing itself went very smoothly and was done super fast. He sanitized everything which was reassuring to see. He also gave me a thorough aftercare rundown and advice for what to do if certain things happen, which I really appreciated. The place is nice and bright and the people are super friendly. Will come here again for future piercings!

Barb Ely

John is awesome!!! I have gotten a few tattoos from him. He never disappointed me. When family comes from out of town and we want to squeeze in, he is always accommodating. Everyone there is so friendly and makes it very comfortable. I need to get more ink soon.

Robert K

Walked-in for a nose piercing, they were very welcoming and were able to the process going right away. Lucas was my piercer and he did an outstanding job, he took about 47 measurements to make sure the new piercing would match the other nostril piercing; doing his due diligence. Super calm and relaxed environment and experience. Highly recommend coming here.

Joe Bertwell

I have been going there since it opened. I knew the artists even before that. They have been absolutely wonderful about helping me on my self illustrating journey! I would not let anyone else do the work I am continually getting to finish my whole body project. John and Tiff are very special to me. They are like my extended family!!! The whole crew at Talon is wonderful! Because they are so awesome they are very busy but well worth the wait!!

brittney fulkerson

Very welcoming & great atmosphere. however i waited there for at least 20 minutes for the piercer to arrive before finding out there were no selections on jewelry for me to get any piercings. I was bummed

Hazel

Heidi was an amazing person. My friend went to get her nose pierced and she is normally very nervous about these things, Heidi was super attentive and patient and talked her through EVERYTHING, she definitely knew what she was doing and my friend had a great experience and so did I just from talking to her. 100% recommend!

Cat itude

We went in to get a cartilage piercing for my daughter for her 15th birthday. Lucas was our piercer. He was nice, professional, and took the time to explain everything to her from the jewelry, the procedure, to the aftercare. No surprises, he explained in detail and took his time. I would highly recommend him. The shop was clean and everyone was super friendly. Remember to bring an id with your child's birthdate or age because it is a state requirement, plus your ID as the parent. (Her ear is a little red as we just did it, but we love it!)

Briana Timothy

Hands down the best tattoo parlor! I've gotten several tattoos from this shop and I love them all. They aren't just a shop they are a family and if you go to them you're treated like family. They have fair pricing and their work is beautiful! Me and my kids have gotten piercings as well from this shop and they were all done right, they loved going there. Me and my kids love the staff. If want tattoos, piercings, laughs, and a good time I say go here!

Caltin Georgia Cross

When I went in to talk about what I wanted and make an appointment, Heidi and Dan were the epitome of excellent customer service. Heidi gave me all the piercing info I needed and Dan really listened to my idea and vision for covering a cross on my hand. The day of my appointment was awesome! Dan was super dedicated to a safe and clean environment and was chill and funny as bonuses! My idea changed from our initial appointment and he rolled with it and created a gorgeous tat that I’m absolutely in love with. The rapport between everyone in the shop is so fun and comfortable. The safety level and cleanliness of the shop is impeccable. I got a few piercings after my tat and Heidi heard me mention I tend to swell and she made sure my initial stud had plenty of room in order to heal properly. She was very concerned with my comfort and was professional and safe. I will definitely be making this my home shop and trusting them with my canvas. Thanks so much everyone!!!

Tabitha Huskey

I absolutely love everyone at this shop. John did my dad's tattoo and I love that even if I haven't been in a while he still remembers me and always makes u feel like family or friend there.

Jasmine Cogdill

Love the atmosphere; you walk in and are instantly treated like family. John has done 3 of my tattoos, one of which was a cover up from a different shop, and they are all amazing. I get several compliments on how great the colors turn out. I also had my daith pierced here and continue to have the jewelry changed out by them. Overall they do a fantastic job. I highly recommend.

Ali Hunter

I have been tattooed here several times and have had the best experience every time, without fail. Each tattoo and piercing I have gotten here have been perfect and very high quality. The environment here is amazing and John and Tiff make you feel extremely comfortable and treat you like family. I have never been welcomed anywhere the way that I have at Talon and it will always be my only place to get tattooed and pierced. Highly, highly recommend.

Lana Thomas

We had just had a horrible experience at another local shop and talon got us in quickly and they were extremely professional and clean! I took my daughter and her best friends to get their ears pierced for her birthday. The friends mom met us there. The piercer was very gentle and kind to the kids! Thank you for providing such a great and kind atmosphere for kids!

Andie Henthorn

Second time in to see Heidi for piercings. She’s exceptional! The studio is clean and welcoming. Definitely my go-to spot.

Ethel Joy

John is very good. He did my first tattoo and people works there are amazing. ❤️ going back for more tattoo in the future. 😊 …

Levi Ankenman

They've been helping us for several months to do a really nice tattoo we haven't actually done the tattoo yet will post pictures of the tattoo when done

Anika Bennett

Hands down one of the best tattoo shops I've been into. Nice and clean, lots of light, great open space layout and extremely friendly staff. Everyone always has a smile on their face and are amazing when it comes to offering information and speaking with you about tattoos piercings or whatever you need. Everyone that works there is super knowledgeable and is really really willing to work with you. I absolutely love it I've received quite a few tattoos and piercings from this parlor, and I will continue to get plenty more

Josh Stutte

I had some messed up work that really needed a clean and competent hand to fix and I went in and alyx the apprentice yes you heard that right the apprentice came through big like a clutch player made time for me was completely amazing and made a lifelong customer out of me. The environment was completely relaxed and john and Dan and everyone in the shop made the experience that much better. I would definitely suggest going here to friends and family. Thanks again alyx for the amazing experience, see you soon!!!

Gale Caviness

Clean and good service. No waiting.Reasonable rates! Comfortable chair as you get your piercing. After care directions. ****

Carley Pinkney

I went in for a consultation and immediately was welcomed and felt comfortable. The atmosphere is so friendly and the staff was very professional. They had some time available and I was able to get my tattoo immediately. It came out perfect and exactly how I wanted it!! I definitely recommend this shop and will be back again for my next tattoo.

Maia Crossley

I searched for -years- to find a shop with a truly positive environment and beautifully creative souls that really listened to what I wanting... John and Tiffany were absolutely worth the wait. I word vomited some weirdly specific ideas at Tiffany, trusted her artistry, and ended up with exactly what I wanted only better! I healed faster than my first tattoo (which I got elsewhere) and the colors are stunning. I am immensely grateful for such beautiful work and am undoubtedly getting another tattoo from them!

Mary P. Jones

I had a GREAT experience at Talon Tattoo! This was my first tattoo, and Dan talked me through the process and made me feel comfortable the entire time. Not only was this my first tattoo, but it is one I have dreamed of having for many years and it was executed perfectly! Dan's attention to detail blew me away and I couldn't recommend him enough. (And if you read this, Dan, it was awesome to get to know you and I wish you all the best!)

Cory McCuistion

Jon and Tiff are amazing. They’ve always treated me right and like family, as soon as you walk in the door. Their shop is full of jokes and laughter. I always have a great time!!!

Mariah Alane

Lucas did a fantastic job on my septum piercing. I couldn’t be happier. Clean facility, reasonable prices, great atmosphere and just a great shop all around - I’ll definitely be returning for any piercings I get in the future.

Rachel Khalil

I have to say that this is by far the friendliest bunch of artists. They are professional, have major talent, clean shop, and make you feel.like family. The master piercer is over the top amazing with all her work and aftercare. The tattoos artists and owners take pride in being the best. After 20 years of tattoo work done, I still keep coming back to Talon Tattoo because the art and overall experience are not found anywhere else.

Jesse Bowers

Took my daughter to get her ears pierced. They were friendly and knowledgeable. I will highly recommend Talon Tattoo to my friends.

Jakob cornmesser

I've been going to Talon Tattoo for at least 12 years. I wouldn't trust anyone else to give me such a high quality tattoo. The shop is always incredibly clean and the atmosphere is Inviting and fun. I love Big John, Tiff, and the rest of the crew. 10/10 would recommend!!

Kristina Marquardt

The most entertaining environment while having an amazing experience that will last you a lifetime. Their work is fantastic. They are more then reasonably priced for the quality of work they maintain. Each tattoo is a piece of art with a fun filled session. If you want your skin to be a canvas to a masterpiece Talon Tattoo is the end of your search.

Sarah DeCamp

I love the owners so much! When you walk in you feel like family. The vibes are so welcoming and comfortable. They are so talented and are true artists with a heart for what they do. I highly recommend Talon Tattoo and we are lucky to have them here in the Valley. Thank you guys💕 …

Sophia Duncan

My sister got her first ear lobe piercings here, and they did a wonderful job!! They were patient, clean, and professional... I will be getting a piercing of my own here, along with a tattoo now. I would highly recommend it.

Elizabeth Wudyka

I have had Heidi do my last recent piercings and she is amazing! I'm sure the other ones are really great as well. I was sketchy at first about going to a tattoo parlor, but I'm so excited and 100% glad I came here. Everyone is welcoming and litterly wonderful. They give amazing advice on taking care of new piercings, and they are very gentle. Thank you for having such an amazing crew that does amazing work. You have an amazing company and great crew members! I will for sure be coming here in the future for any piercings or tattoos. Thank all of you for a great experience! Woohoo!

Tyler Abels

LITERALLY MY SAFE HAVEN FOR TATTOOS AND PIERCINGS. I have never ever been disappointment in the service, care, and quality of John, Pete, Heidi, and Tiffany! It is always a welcoming professional environment with a great price point. I only trust the people in this shop to alter my body as iv'e had no great experiences in he valley like I do here! I work in the mall and any time somebody comes in and asks where to go for piercings (happens a lot) I will only refer them to Talon. It's such a fun, artistic, and welcoming environment. Every thing is top notch sterilized, and Heidi (piercer) is always so amazing about new piercings and switching mine out for me. Heidi's jewelry and piercings never hurt me and they heal amazingly, mine have never been infected! John, Pete, and Tiffany are also such talented tattoo artists that will really plan and create a master piece tattoo for you. I can never stop showing mine off! Love it here highly recommend!!!

Jaime Christensen

I loved how clean everything was and my tattoo artist, Dan was really great. I love my tattoo. He was able to take my drawing and make it something even better. My only concern was how lax their mask policy was. But I guess of one is getting a tattoo during a pandemic they're not as concerned.

Glory Ambriz

Peter was amazing! I love my two tattoos that he did for me! (my mom also loves the one she got from him as well)! These pictures are only about 40 minutes after I got them done! Definitely recommend and will absolutely be going back!

Shantelle Waynetska

Had my nose pierced here and was super impressed by how Heidi handled it. My nose was a challenge since I had it pierced multiple times prior, so the scar tissue was somewhat difficult to get through. She nailed it though and it looked great! The shop is clean and everyone is super nice! Absolutely recommend!

Amber Curtis

Best tattoo place to go to in the state! Professional and friendly from start to finish. Whether you're talking to one of the artists or any of the clientele, the atmosphere is laidback and comfortable. They're all great for cracking jokes and having fun, but don't worry they still get the job done...and done right! No wonky or wobbly lines, unless thats your design. While an idea may look great on paper, the tattoo professionals at Talon will work with you to create a piece that you want but one that is also of quality. I came in with a design in mind, but was kindly educated that while it can be tattooed, it wont stay eligible long term. While the idea adjusted from my inital thoughts, I still got all of my desired elements! I highly recommend you call Talon Tattoo for all of your tattoo needs! P.S. If John reads this, Dan gets 2 customer service stars 😉😄

Tanner Backus

I have gotten both of my current tattoos done here, and I plan on getting more done here. The place is awesome! John and Tiff are so friendly, and the facility is clean. John is a genuine guy that takes a real interest in the story and reasoning behind my tattoos while I'm getting them. These guys are also very fairly priced! I'm definitely going to Talon Tattoo for any tattoos I have done in Idaho!

J. Smith

Big John is Da Best at Talon!! He worked with us and fit my son in when he was able to take leave. He made him feel like part of the family and John did his first tattoo. Thanks Talon for being like family, y'all do a hell of a job!! We will definitely be back.

Tony

Thank you John. You do amazing work. My tattoo guy for life. If your looking for good work good company talon tattoo is the place to go. Yes it takes time to get in to see him but so worth the wait. Thank you guys so much.

Skyler Nelson

Great staff and atmosphere. I am glad I spent looking for the right place and artist for a cover up. (Update) back for a tattoo for step daughter. I highly recommend this place!

Kevin Roberts

Truly amazing. Pete is a fantastic artist. Patient, Funny, and super informative. He bent over backwards to help my fiance and I make our wedding tattoos a reality. The work and attention to detail truly blew me away. All the artists in the shop made us feel like family while we were there. I can honestly say I wont go to a different tattoo parlor after experiencing the environment of the shop and quality of the work.

Chris Wagner

Best shop in town! Been coming here for 10 years, and haven't been anywhere else! The Lasco's are professional, welcoming, and absolutely hilarious. So much character here, I promise you will never be disappointed with your experience or your results if you come here.

CombatAssaultHQ

Talon Tattoo has such an amazing tattoo environment. They truly make it a very caring and welcoming environment. They take their time to really get to know their clients and treat them like family. The crew makes the experiance of getting a tattoo so much fun. They do amazing work. John and Tiffany are my family's Favorite. You will always be greeted with with a smile and constant laughter. Thank you

Nicole Kinnaird

The prices are fair and the quality of work is so good! My daughter got her ears pierced here and it was fast and they were so good with kids! The tattoo artists were also very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Cameron Sanders

Great place, great atmosphere, clean needles, top shelf ink, had tons of fun. John is a cool guy and loves his job. He got me in quickly, did great work, and introduced me to everyone who came in to make me feel comfortable. First tattoo was a success. I will be a returning client!

Cher WK

Just had my very 1st tattoo done by John. Excellent experience. It's a great, fun, talkative environment. John has a great personality and is very talented. Love love love my tattoo. Not painful, not scary, great memories. :)

Alicia strauch

Got my first tattoo here in April, John did amazing. They fit me in before my appointment. Then I recently got my nose pierced there and it looks awesome she did a great job! I barely even felt it. Super clean and professional. Way better than the place I got my belly button pierced.

Kelsey Martin

Walked in on a Sunday for a helix piercing. Took me in no problem. Lucas was super informative about every step, which made me feel a lot more comfortable. He was very patient. Loved how it looked!

Courtney Nielson

I have a total of 18 piercings and Tiara has done 14 of them and the apprentice Mike has done 2. They do a really good job. I have had NO problems with any of them. I also got a tattoo at another place and they did a really really bad job and Tiffany completely fixed it and has done a really good job for a really reasonable price! I love everyone that works here!

Angel of darkness

I am very close friends with John, Tiff, and their son, Talon. My mom, dad, aunt, uncle, nana, and papa have all had all their tattoos done there. I have been in the shop since I was a few months old. It has always been very clean and an amazing place. John has very clean and amazing tattoos, as do Tiff and Pete. They are amazing, and very kind and funny.

Tiffany Spence

I did a walk in piercing today done by Lucas.He was super nice and took good care of me. Even though I have a short tongue, he was careful & patient with me. Wouldn't go any where else.

Vicky Palmer

This shop is absolutely amazing John and Tiff are amazing artists who truly care about their clients!!! I always recommend Talon Tattoo Co to anyone looking to get a tattoo or piercing. I just had my tattoo touched up after getting it a year ago, and John did an absolutely Fantastic job!!! I cant say enough good things about this shop!!!

Kolton Hahn

I have been to many piercing locations, however this one stands out the most. Every staff member is extremely nice and welcoming. Everyone is so comforting when they perform their job which is highly appreciated when someone is puncturing a hole in you. The pricing is also very cheap for the quality that you get. Definitely my choice location!

Virtual Grace

Great experience. I called to see if a piercer could take a look at the issues I'm having with the piercings done at another place in town. Heidi brought me in, sat me in the chair, gloved up, and really took a good look at both piercings. She informed me of what was wrong, gave me material about what to do for it, and said I could come back in a few weeks so she could see how the healing has progressed! Can you imagine someone taking that much time and effort when they aren't even getting paid? What a gem. I wish I had gone here for my piercings. The shop is very clean. It smells nice and it has a very open and relaxed vibe. It's a great place to bring your kid for piercing.

Kristina gough

I love going to talon. they do such an amazing job and everyone is always so friendly. I've had all of my piercings and tattoo done there and I'm very much a nervous nelly when it comes to needles and pain but the staff have always been very comforting and made me feel at ease. I will forever go to them for all of my piercings etc.

Rachel B

Last Fall I got a simple piece done on my left inner forearm. It was a walk in, and was handled very well. Everyone was nice and did a good job. I'd rate higher, however they're not all that great at getting back to people who send in inquiries. I sent in an inquiry on June 2nd and never heard back.

Ash

I got my eyebrow piercing done here and my sibling got their tattoos and a couple piercings done here. My grandma also got her daith piercing done. They're clean, friendly, and I trust their work. Would highly recommend!

Brenton Peck

My wife and I have both gotten tattoos from Pete and have more scheduled. Talon Tattoo employs absolute top notch artists. I could not be any happier with their work and would highly recommend to everyone! They are our go-to and only place for all tattoos and piercings.

Courtney Burton

Heidi is amazing. I got my belly button pierced March of last year and spent months going to different shops trying to get help because it was blistering and swelling and all sorts of gross and all it took was one visit to Heidi and she got me special soap, a new belly button ring, and helped me get it cleared up. It turned out that the gentleman that had pierced me, pierced me twice and put the ring in sideways and the ring was far too small. I've gone there for every piercing since and will continue to do so because I've never had a single issue and they've always helped me with everything anytime I've had questions. They arent all about money there. They genuinely care about their customers and that is so important in this business. Thanks for all the awesome work guys!

Nicolas Wells

I got my nose pierced here a couple weekends ago and turned out amazing! Heidi was SO nice and made the process quick and easy. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a piercing/tattoo!

Review Master

Amazing amazing amazing!! JOHN IS AMAZING!! There’s no words to discribe how great they are it’s best you just set an appointment and see for yourself. But good luck trying to get an appointment they are book solid and with work like they do it’s worth the wait! They do offer free touch ups for tattoos they do.

Becky W

We took our daughter in for her 12th birthday to get her earlobes pierced. Lucas was so amazing with her! He talked to her and told her everything he was going to do. He pierced the first one, and then she started to pass out! He let her take her time, they got her water and lollipops. She told him she felt like she was going to throw up and he grabbed her a garbage pail and gave her space. Once she vomited, she was fine. He let her take her time and once she was ready, he quickly pierced the other one. He was so courteous and professional and I cannot say enough good things about him! Such a positive experience for all of us!

mom three

The best tattoo shop! John is professional, awesome, and will take good care of you as long as you can wait. There's always a wait to get in but it will be well worth it. I send everyone here.

Desiree Fisher

Heidi took amazing care of me and explained everything in detail for my piercings. I also have seen John for a couple tattoos and he always does amazing work as well. Best place around!

Katrisha Sands

Great service. Heidi was the one who did my peircings and when i came in after one of my snake bites had the skin closed over the stud she was helpful and nice on doing her absolute best to make sure i was taken care of and didn't have to make an unwanted doctor visit. She was able to get the stud out and cleaned it and then made sure the other one was still healing well. I recommend Heidi to anyone and everyone for peircings. She's thoughtful and very kind and overall a great person.

Dianna Drury

I am so happy I found this shop and I love that it is family owned. I've had piercings and a tattoo corrected and will be going back in the future. The owners are so nice and extremely knowledgeable about their services and aftercare.

veronica lake

Seriously the best place ever!!!!! I just got my first tattoo and i am IN LOVE! The artist name is Pete and he did a phenomenal job. He made my piece really come to life and it’s more than what i could ever imagine. If i has more money i easily would’ve paid $400 for mine!!! I got it for $200. If you are thinking of getting a tattoo here, DO IT! And put in a request for Pete!!!!!

Alexa Peters

Lucas is the best piercer I have ever had.he is extremely cool and will take great care of you. I could have gone anywhere to get new jewelry but decided to go back to talon because of his great customer service.

johnny short

Came in Friday and got my septum pierced with my wife who also got her septum pierced. Heidi was amazing. Quick service ready to go the process was painless except for the piercing which is to be expected. I would highly recommend talon tattoo and Heidi to anybody looking for tattoos or piercing all the staff was friendly and helpful all rockstars in my book go check them out.

Breanna Belden

Got my tongue pierced and the experience was amazing. Walked in, he double checked everything with me and let me know what steps would be coming up the whole time. I will go back for my other piercings too.

Lisa D

Love this place. Everyone is really nice and helpful. If you are looking to get something pierced this is the place to go. Ask for Lucas he was awesome. Super busy shop so make an appointment. Well worth the wait.

Bobbie Murchison

Came in to get my nose pierced and Heidi was great. She was able to get me in between appointments. The shop was clean, everyone was really nice. I would absolutely go back.

Emily Elizabeth

Got my nose peirced here 3 weeks ago and I have done everything I was told to do and sadly my stud just feel out after a washing. Sadly I'm disappointed I should have gotten some directions if this was to happen. If it closes I will be pretty upset as I would have wasted my 50$.

Katie Boyce

This place is amazing! John and Tiffany know what they are doing and are super at it. I can't wait for Tiffany to finish my sleeve! Just after the first of many sessions I know it is going to be amazing.

Adam Wallace

The cleanest Tattoo place I've ever seen. I got my first tattoo here yesterday (Feb 2014) and I was amazed at how clean and friendly it was. Most places are somewhat dirty and look sketchy. Big John is hilarious and a great artist and Emily is so sweet. I got my tattoo done by Emily and she was so caring and fun. NO ONE THERE WILL GIVE YOU BULLS**T. They tell you straight up what they think when you ask them something. Also the way they price your tattoo is great too. It's not by how much time it takes but by the tattoo itself (Size, Color, etc.) I can't think of a single bad thing to say. Will DEFINATELY be going back again.

Tayla Mai

Heidi did a amazing piercing and I would definitely recommend her!! She was so good and made sure it was even. She was so sweet to my baby girl I totally will be going to her for my helix

Amelia Hill

Lucas was super nice! He told me what he was doing every step of the way and was comforting while I was getting my piercing. I love the result!

Lisa “TinxNemesis” Eckersley

I love the atmosphere, they are really laid back and listen to what you want. John was an apprentice from my tattoo artist and they do a great job! I'll have them do any touch up on my tattoos anytime! Really good prices!

Kara C

Wonderful experience getting peirced!! I unfortunately forgot the name of the woman who did ours, but she was extremely lovely and friendly. Would recommend!

Chris Shotts

This place is awesome. Everyone there is friendly and the atmosphere is lite. Dan was mine and my wifes artist and is phenomenal.But all of the artists there do incredible work. We are going back for more work.

Lora

Been going to Talon Tattoo for years, since they opened. They have always been clean, friendly and always make you feel welcome and part of a family. You'll never get a better experience than you will at Talon Tattoo!

D. McCoy

Looking for some awesome ink? Check Talon Tattoo out! I had feathered edges from older tattoos, a trip to Talon was suggested and WOW Not disappointed! You have to check them out!

Jennah Leathers

They have amazing artists. Got my all time favorite tattoo here and want to come back for any other tattoos I get. They make you feel welcome and are all very friendly!

Jen Gempler

I now have 9 tattoos by John and Tiffany and I will never have anyone else work on me as long as they are in the business. All of my family goes to them and I send anyone that asks about my artwork to them. Love them and cant rave enough about their talent!!!!

Odessa Kirk Beach Dance

John and Tiffany have seen my family through some very difficult times. They are beautiful people who love thier customers and treat everyone as family. I wouldn't go to anyone else in the Treasure Valley.

Brandon Aberle

Got my first tattoo done here by 'Big John'. There is nothing bad I could say about the place! I emailed a photo for custom work and he had a mock up ready for me the next day. His schedule was booked on the day I needed it done so he opened shop 3 1/2 hours early to fit me in. He was fast, clean, and gave me the best deal in town. If I ever have any more work done I WILL GO NOWHERE ELSE!!!!

Daniel Oldham

I have had a bunch of work done by John and his crew. Have zero interested in going anywhere else. These guys are profession and treat clients like family not like revenue. Artwork, demeanor, everything is top notch.

Wendy Shockley

These guys were so great to jump in and help me out with a tattoo I was trying to cover up. They do business professionally and truly care about their customers in addition to providing quality work. I don't think I could ever go to another shop again after my experience here.

Brenna Bennett

It was such a great experience!! The piercer was so gentle,nice and informative on everything!. A very delightful place to get pierced! Totally recommending to anyone looking to get work done :)

Kelly Muscolo

This place is great! They are friendly, knowledgeable, and provide excellent care (even after the fact, if you need it). Definitely recommend.

Rabecka Krasko

Just got a tattoo at talon and I gotta say I love emily!!! She was very nice and this is the place I am going to go forever for any tattoos. Very clean professional but still make your visit personal so that you remember how not only are they there to do your tattoo, but make the experience amazing.

Melissa Rheuby

My gf and I wanted to get a tattoo together! We walked in and all three artists made us feel at home and comfortable right awAy! We showed John what we wanted and he sketched it out and made it even more bad ass! Had such a great experience and I already have John working on my next peice! If u want quality tattoos and good people go to Talon!!

Shawnna Snodgrass

Would highly recommend Talon Tattoo, very comfortable family friendly atmosphere!! Have had numerous tattoos done by John and Tiff, I get compliments all the time on the art they have done!!💙 …

Kelton Perrigo

David! Friendly, the has corrected a terrible piercing from a different shop for me and did a dermal and havent ran into any trouble what so ever!:) definately one of the best places I have been too, very amazing staff. And facebook messaging them, usual replies in under 5 minutes! It's amazing how quick they respond!

Sarah peterson

Their selection want what I wanted. Very nice place though

Monks Koach

I've known Big John for a very long time, he's seen all my inkwork and has had his hand in plenty of it. I have a sick backpiece that I'm quite proud of, and truly love all my other tattoo's. Emily has done a couple of them, and she is a total stud. Talon Tattoo is definitely family orientated and family filled. Tiffany is gracious and so friendly whenever I'm in for a quick hello or some chair time, they're all so very accomodating. I've never been more comfortable getting something done than while I'm there. I tell everyone I know and people I don't about their shop almost daily. If you want quality work, by dedicated and professional people, go to Talon, you will not be disappointed.

Deborah Shaffer

I have had several tats by John. They did family memorial tats that needed to be perfect and they are. I live out of state now but go back to have my art done. Love John and Tiff.

Jordynn Tenney

I got a tattoo from John and I couldn’t be happier. It’s everything that I wanted. Not only was the work great, but everyone working there made it such a comfortable atmosphere. My has healed very nicely. Will 100% be going back.

Gabbie Hernandez

Such a fantastic place for piercings and tattoos! Ive known John and Tiffany most of my life and they have been nothing but amazing and caring!!

Judy T.

It's a great shop. I had a half sleeve done, it was a cover up of sorts and it turned out beautiful. John did a fabulous job. I've gotten ink in many shops in different states and this one is a good shop.
