Reviews of Dark Horse Tattoo

Dave Skurlock

Been going here for years and Sasha King never disappoints, top not artist and a very clean facility. Showing here two of my favorite pieces he has done for me, I wouldn't go anywhere else for mine. You should check him out!

Hunter Moffett

Huge fan of Gabriel's. He just finished my second tattoo & he also did my first one about 6 months ago. I live 2,400 miles away in Nashville, TN but he's definitely my only artist! SUPER creative and does amazing work. If you're reading this wondering if you should go to Dark Horse Tattoo ... Ask for Gabriel!

Samantha Lobb

I was in town for a month and Sasha was able to fit me in within 2 weeks. I got a wonderful Christmas tattoo that I absolutely LOVE. Sasha was easy to work with and even followed up with me. I would definitely recommend this place.

Jennifer Cram

Awesome place to get a tattoo. Have been getting tattooed by Sasha for a long time and am always impressed with his professionalism. His work is beautiful and I can't wait for my next visit.

Shannon Rogers

I can't recommend this place enough. Very clean facility, and my artist, Sasha, was extremely helpful in my first tattoo experience. I'm not a very creative person, but Sasha helped improve my original design for a sleeve. I'm definitely coming back to this place for my future tattoos.

Sara Vermaas

Wow! Joshua Carr took care of us, we managed to get a back to back session so my boyfriend got his tattoos and I got mine right afterwards. Really cool dude, great shop, GREAT artwork. Super fair pricing and a very chill atmosphere. May come back to get the shlop continued in the future, thanks again dude!!

Seth Chambers

Could not recommend more. I worked with Sasha to get my first tattoo. He was welcoming and knowledgeable, and gave great feedback on some of my ideas for a design. Their shop is sanitary, organized and has a friendly vibe. I reserved time, came back feeling more than confident in Sasha's ability, and my gut was right. He shaded the tattoo exactly how I wanted it and he nailed the placement as well. I'm not sure how long I sat, I think a little over 2 hours, but it felt like nothing thanks to the great conversation as well as the captivating artistry on display. I am over the moon with my first tattoo experience, and I cannot recommend both Dark Horse Tattoo and artist Sasha King enough.

Jackie Pearce

Gabriel did an amazing job! He did a scorpion on my tricep and he really did amazing, the whole process lasted like two hours, really enjoyed my experience& will be coming back!! Thanks Gabriel, you rock!

Ryan Pferrer

I've been here for both my first and second (so far only) tattoos and both were done super well. Gabriel worked on both of them. He's super talented and also nice to work with in case you're looking for him to take a creative approach in whatever you want done.

Arianna Johnson

I’ve seen Sasha 4 times in the past 5 years and he never misses! We’ve added onto one of my tattoos a couple of times and slowly started a sleeve. I tell him vague ideas and he designs what I want without me fully knowing. I highly recommend him!

Jay “Gear Grinder” Sean

THANKS Gabriel! You are awesome. Visiting from NYC. This made my trip! I can’t stop appreciating this great line work on my tattoo. 5/5 highly recommended!

Martin Bowen

Sasha K., Joshua C. & Nick G. There my Boys Ink and Adatude Skill And Love of TATTOO that's what you want a Home That Cares you and your Chair is Waiting

Jessica Taylor

Dropped in with my husband while in Seattle for my birthday. Gabriel had an appointment a few hours out, but did a quick stencil for each of us, and got to work. His lines were clean and the shading was impeccable. Plus, he's just super friendly. Thanks for the great work!!!

Elizabeth Maxson

I loooooved it! First tattoo. Gabriel let me know what to expect and gave me aftercare advice. Line work is perfect! He was honest in telling me whether or not something would look good, blur, etc... and got me in really last minute while I was in town. I would totally come back to Seattle just for him! Thank you!!

jackie morse

I have been going to Sasha king with dark horse tattoo for 15 years now. I’ve since had several pieces done by him. When I reach out to sasha about what I want. He listens. He delivers a piece of art that I will forever cherish. It’s personal for me. It’s important to have someone that actually listens to what you are going through and turns it into something breathtaking. I will never have another artist. Not even if I have to travel to another state. I get so many compliments on my pieces. The colors are phenomenal and don’t fade. If you’re looking for a forever artist. Sasha king is your guy. I can’t wait for my next apt coming up in a couple days 😊

Joseph Beeton

I saw Mr. Sasha. 1) clean shop 2) very receptive to input and detail concerning piece 3) although I wasn't having a five hour session made me feel welcome and 4) excellent value for the money. The dressing he used is the same type we use at the hospital- I am impressed.

Darren Bojrab

Had a great first tattoo experience with Sasha. The tattoos that he did turned out great! Definitely going back for more tattoos. What I liked about Sasha is that he cares about his craft and he enjoys what he does. And when you go to someone like that your tattoos will always come out amazing.Therefore I recommend people to see Sasha because he is a professional at what he does! Thank you Sasha for the awesome first tattoo experience!!

Randal Giacone

I’ve been going to Sasha for a few years now, and I must say each time has been a great experience. He’s been helping fix some of my tattoos, making them more pleasurable/ presentable. I trust him with the art he does especially rework. I’ve recommended many of my friends and family members and they all come out excited and amazed with not just his work but his personality to make that “first tattoo” experience great.

Brent Woodfield

Gabriel was amazing. Randomly dropped in to get some flash done without an appointment while in Seattle from out of town. Took our work and did an amazing job. His line work is amazing! Thanks again for doing our tattoos!

Marietta Correa

Came back for another tattoo that was done by Sasha, Love it! 10/10 would recommend to anyone and come back! Thank you Sasha!

Emily Fuller

Can't say enough good things! Professional, clean, and beautiful work! This was my first tattoo and I'm obsessed with the work Sasha did-I get so many compliments! Definitely will be back when I am in the area again.

Amrit Nam Khalsa

Went to Dark Horse for my first tattoo. I worked with Josh and it was excellent. He worked with me on my idea and made sure to get it exactly how I wanted it. He texted me multiple times to check in before the appointment, and kept me talking and distracted through the nearly 3 hour session. He was so kind and you can really tell how much time, attention, and effort he puts into his work and passion for the art. If I get more tattoos, I know exactly where I'm going

Lakey Love

I have been going to Sasha and Dark Horse for almost 10 years. I continue to go back because of his creativity and attention to detail. He's taken my ideas and turned them into something so much better than I envisioned. I even brought my son here to get his first tattoo. The shop is extremely clean and decorated with a fun variety of pop culture and custom pieces from the artists that work there. I've moved out of Washington but go back to Dark Horse because I've been so happy with all the work I've gotten from Sasha and will go back as long as he is tattooing.

Brandon Corbett

So happy with Sasha, they’re an amazing artist and all around good person. Beyond helpful in the design stage and a vast amount of knowledge. My tattoo came out better than expected. Will definitely be returning for another soon

Kimberly L. Coombe

Sasha is an exceptional artist with a heart of gold. He’s also a good listener as he’s been able to extract the image out of my brain and tattooed it on me the way I imagined it many times. He’s professional and the shop is nice and clean. Highly recommend him.

Gayla Woodley

Great place. Love my artist Gary. He did a fantastic job, like always.. Thank you

Sheik Of Shadow

Sasha was extremely thorough with me, even before booking the consult. He was kind and attentive, going back and forth with me on Instagram, while he had to be closed, during the coronavirus shutdown. I had a very simple concept, and he listened to the concept, where it came from, and why it was important to me. He made my idea, into a perfect tattoo, I could never have hoped to envision. He does absolutely amazing work, and he’s just an all around good guy, which is a statement you won’t hear from me very often, about men. But I’ll be going back to him for more tattoos, for sure!

Monique Littlejohn

I have been going to Sasha for years. He has pretty much done all my work, and I wouldn’t have it any other way or see any other artist .. he is not only an amazing and caring artist but an amazing person and friend aswell.. You will never regret getting tatted by this guy! Get you some Dark Horse Tattoo !!!!

Billy Bivona

Gabriel did an amazing job on my and my partners tattoo, excellent artist highly recommend!

Girish Raman

Joshua is awesome!! He was so considerate and worked with me very patiently in designing the tattoo as per my liking. Then he did an awesome job of the tattoo itself, it turned out to be just as I wanted. I'm coming back to him for all my future tattoos.

Kayla Chhun

I had such a great experience, very grateful to have Gabriel work on me. I have had unprofessional experiences with other places in the past but he was very careful and detailed about what I wanted. Absolutely happy with my two simple tattoos, thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼 …

Jaimitoo Jaimes

Dark Horse tattoo was a great place for me to get my first tattoo clean place, crew nice and relaxed.. Josh was a very friendly and professional at what he dose and also really will organized I like how he talk with me took the time to hear me out for what I wanted on my tattoo and how I would like it, the color came out great and I love how the overall work came out! Thanks again josh! I will definitely be coming back here again get some more work done!

Ivan Rodriguez

Gabriel hooked myself and my GF up with a last minute spot. For myself it was my first pair of tattoos but he was super cool throughout the whole session. 10/10 would go back and see him. 👌🏼 Thanks my guy! …

Andrew Louangphakdy

I have been going to Sasha for at least 6+ years now. I have nothing but good things to say about the work that has been done. My sleeve is almost complete and everything has been started from my basic ideas and elaborated into perfection by Sasha. The environment is very clean and friendly - NOT once have i been unsatisfied. I strongly recommend first timers and experienced minds alike to give Darkhorse Tattoo a try. You will not be disappointed.

Victoria Serdyuk

Joe did my tattoo, all from drawing it and personalizing it, and was great with the needle. He was super nice and made sure everything was sanitary and made sure to make me feel at home. He even booked me for an appointment before the actual studio opened. Highly recommend.

Jay Dill

Decided to walk in on a Sunday. We worked out a nice easy piece to remember my stop in Seattle.

Kitten Freeman

So I originally contacted Dark Horse about a scar cover-up tattoo idea I had. After a good conversation with the artist, I started looking through their photos and reviews on Facebook. I noticed one review about a rib tattoo and how they remarked that the Tattooist was gentle on the area, which reminded me about the rookie tattoo I needed redone. I had just met the young artist via my friends, and I was mostly being courteous about accepting his offer to do my tattoo for cheap. He ended up pressing way too hard with the Tattoo machine whilst indulging in Death Metal, and he caused bruising under the work. Every artist I showed it to, said nothing could be done due to the internal damage. It's been over 5 years since that mishap. I scheduled an appointment for a consultation with Josh, and in person he tells me about how he can redo the symbols, and use skin-tone ink to cover the old tattoo! The appointment was great and he ended up making the tattoo straighter than it was originally placed. He also took care to explain in great detail, how the flesh ink worked to cover up the old stuff. The Japanese is nice and bold now and I'm excited to see how the cover-up heals, for which he has offered a complimentary touch-up if needed. I'll share a healed photo later! As for how I heard about Dark Horse, a guy I dated briefly had raved about his friend's small business and showed me the work he had done. I kept the company reserved in my memory for when I wanted to get a more artistic tattoo, and I checked back in on their progress and happily watched them grow over time. I love the studio setup, endless art all around the place, and the snackie machines! Josh was very friendly, funny and overall super personable- I'll look forward to coming back again in the future.

Jacob Norton

Sasha has been doing my tattoos for almost ten years. He is always knowledgeable, friendly and skilled.

Becky Milan

Sasha is an awesome artist. He’s done 12 of my 14 tattoos. Love them all. Can’t wait to get another one.

Alex Hendricks-Hockey

Got a small white ink tattoo from Joe yesterday - super chill and nice. Whole space had a really calm and fun vibe. I specifically wanted the tattoo to be really subtle and really just for me. A lot of artists are understandably wary about doing white ink but can be really dickish in their discussions about it. Joe was super cool once he understood that I already had a white ink tattoo and knew what it would look like when it healed and faded. He is professional, fun, and charges very fairly. Highly recommend.

Larry Matlin

I got my 1st tattoo 7 years ago from Sasha (2 actually) and could not have been happier. I let him unleash his creativity and he did not disappoint. I recently went back for my 3rd and am in process of setting up my fourth, all with Sasha. Would not think of going anywhere else!!

Meghan

Tattooed by Sasha King over a period of two sessions. Did the research, by and large Sasha exceeded my expectations with the intricate drawing I brought in. Sasha brought it to life and made it as just as dark and twisty as I expected. 10/10 recommend Dark Horse, but more so in recommending Sasha’s absolute artistry. He has the knowledge and experience to create some memorable ink.

William Bielefeld

Have been going to Dark Horse for over 10 years now. Have been getting inked by Sasha the owner ever since he was learning to tattoo. Great guy very friendly willing to work with you on what you want. Will give you good feed back also on if the picture/idea is going to work and how it will look after time. Always have have great help at shop. Very clean and welcoming. Took father in a few years back because father went to another tattoo artist (Won't Say name) first time he has gotten tattoo since his Navy days. And the guy really dug deep and got bad scar. Took him to see Sasha at Dark Horse and he fixed tattoo looks great. My dad has since gotten 3 more tattoos from Sasha. Wont go anywhere else. Brother and sister have both been to see him even got my wife to get her first tattoo from Sasha. He is like family now will not go anywhere else. So if you are looking to get something done for the first time or something fixed and looking for someone that has a great friendly addittude. Then Dark Horse is the place to go and Sasha is the man to see. I have over 15 tattoos and not looking to stop anytiime soon. DARK HORSE / Sasha ROCK..

Scott Dougherty

They were very friendly and accommodating to our tattoo requests. We came in as a group and it was a chill atmosphere and Sasha King was awesome and gave recs on future tats.

Isa C

Shasha is amazing, I have difficult schedule and he made it work. Now about my tattoo, it's amazing. I showed him what I wanted and he made some modifications to it. He also explained why the modifications and I ended up liking it even better

Sam Johnson

I been going to Dark horse for years Sasha is a honest and professional tattoo artist . Any idea anything this man can do . On a professional level and as a friend I will always go to him for all my tattoos and some fun .

Natalie Austin

I have been going to Dark Horse for about 7 years now, ever since it was in Everett and that's where I first met Sasha. My first tattoo was a huge skull shaped a little like a heart with a banner on the left side of my chest. A very brave spot for a first tattoo. I now have 13 tattoos and all except 2 have been done by Sasha. I trust him with all my work. Whenever I want a new tattoo I always bring him my pictures and ideas of what I want. He always listens to my ideas and looks at all my terrible drawings or the pictures I found. He has resketched the tattoos for me and made it his own and I love that. The idea is mine and he puts his hard work into it and makes it perfect(since I am a terrible artist). He's a super nice guy and even before I really knew him I liked how honest he was and overall interested in my tattoo and why I wanted it. Now that we know each other he still asks about my ideas and stays in touch with me about future work. He is more than a great tattoo artist he's a great person to have put something permanent and so important on your body. I trust all his fellow tattoo artist because I know how high his standards are when it comes to tattoos. Each and every guy in his shop has their own unique style and something new to add to the shop, and they are all super nice and hilarious back and forth banter is a must when you're sitting for hours getting art tattooed on you. I've had one of his other guys tattoo me and I loved it! It's the best having a reliable tattoo guy and also being able to trust the guys he hires to do any work for me when he's not available. He's the best and I've gone to others and they just don't compare to his style and demeanor. Give this shop a look and I know those who truly love and appreciate tattoos will be just as happy as I am. I'm a faithful and loyal customer and I keep going back. Love you Sasha!!!

Steven Pool

I've been in twice this month to have tattoos done by Josh Carr. He does excellent work and has always made the experience easy, collaborative, and comfortable. Highly recommended.

Mukilteo House Of Wax

Have received over 7 or 8 tattoos from Joe at Dark Horse. I don't know, I lost count. His blackwork is unique, his hands are talented and the environment is clean. Strong group of talent in this space. I'll be back soon to finish the most recent efforts.

Carl Olive

Great tattoo shops everything about the shop is professional and great at what they do. I enjoy the service and artistic element in the Dark Horse Tattoo. I have got two tattoos there and by far the best tattoo place I have been too. I love the tattoos I have got there and I would recommend this place to anyone that wants a tattoo.

Theresa Laufasa

Absolutely love this place!!! Nick is an amazing artist, totally listened to my vision and was able to put together all the million random pictures I brought in. Everyone in the shop is superrrrrr chill, very down to earth. Totally didn't mind the music but he even switched it to the island station because I told him I loved Jboog (sometimes the little things make a big difference). 11/10 Would definitely recommend to anyone!👌🏽 Uploaded my tattoo in the photos section. Freehanded the flowers, he is also light handed and works fast so the pain wasn't too bad.

J. Bur

Josh has been working on a sick Studio Ghibli sleeve for me. Added some color to the top. Beautiful work, as always. Had a fun time listening to tunes with the guys in the shop.

Eliza Williams

I came for the Friday the 13th flash tattoos. It was my first tattoo and I had an awesome experience and Sasha was so helpful and the tattoo turned out great!
