Reviews of Studio Evolve
Raven Leggette
I love all my tattoos from Studio Evolve !! My tattoo artist is amazing I'm able to give her a few ideas and she runs with it perfectly!!! Perfect service everytime and they're so caring. They offer water, there's a clean restroom, hand sanitizer everywhere, masks are enforced at all times and there's also great privacy & space for everyone getting tatted. 😀 HIGHLY recommend this studio.
Charlotte Kyser
Blake is hands down one of the best artists I’ve been to. Was so down to earth and real with me. Gave his honest opinion and trusted him with this gem. I gave him an idea but gave him free rein to do what he pleases and this was the final result. He was even caring enough to ask about my pain and offer numbing spray when it became quite uncomfortable. So pleased with his work and his art. 10/10 recommend him and Studio Evolve.
Chelsie Spencer
The atmosphere is exactly what you would expect for a highly rated tattoo shop. Very professional yet down to earth and fun. Amy B was awesome at what she does. I have had lots of tattoos and this by far was the least painful and probably the best line work I have to show. Highly recommend. Every one was knowledgeable and kind it was a very fun experience!
Tuck The Bern
Excellent experience. Tommy Ray did such a nice job on our matching tattoos to honor my mother. While it was a simple little tattoo, it is so crisp and clean. Sometimes the little tattoos are the hardest! Thank you for the art. Highly recommended.
Madison Schanze
One of the best tattoo shops I’ve been in. It’s always clean and everyone there is always welcoming. My tattoo artist is honestly the best. I was super nervous about getting tattooed in VB since moving but Canada is super sweet and does such a beautiful job. She’s super detailed with her work and has always gone way above my expectations. She takes the extra mile in my opinion whenever I come to her with my ideas. She did such a beautiful job with my collar bones. 1000% recommend. 🥰
Eli Parks
Studio Evolve has got to be the best Tattoo shop I have ever been to. Not only are the artists extremely talented and amazing but the atmosphere in that place is incredible. I highly recommend this Tattoo shop and I will most definitely be returning! Special shout out to Brendan Tierney (one of the artists that works there) for an outstanding job on my Tattoo!! He absolutely brought the piece I wanted to life. Love this place!!!
David Simons
This shop is simply one the best in Hampton Roads. Today was my second time getting tattooed here. It’s a really great environment and the girls at the front desk were really personable and helpful. I came in thinking I was just gonna get a consult and it turned out that Jeff had just had a cancellation and was able to do my tattoo as a walk in. I’d been wanting something in remembrance of my best friend who committed suicide and this little bit of lyrics I got on my arm was the perfect thing. He did such an awesome job with it. I am already planning my next tattoo and it will definitely be at Studio Evolve.
ryan rybaczuk
This place can't get enough stars! The Studio Evolve team is next level. Everyone is friendly and humble. The shop is unique, and very clean. I have had Jeremy Tatem do 3 pieces on me, and he is one of a kind! Great guy, great artist with a light hand. I gave him my ideas and let him run with them and the result has been nothing less than amazing! Already have plans to see him and this team soon! Thanks again Studio Evolve, no where else compares.
Ashleigh Craver
Tattoo Artist: Zitman. I challenged him with a cute tattoo and he delivered! My piece was a dedication to my mother who passed away in 2020. He listened to what I wanted while also applying his artistic touches. He ensured I was comfortable during the whole process.
Elizabeth Barnes
My artist was Kevin & he did a cover up for me & I couldn't be happier. I shared my ideas with him about what I wanted & he made it come to life. He was very down to earth & has a calming sense about him which made me feel super relaxed.
All the staff were super nice as well. The shop is very clean & has an overall welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be back!
Charity Walton
I had a wonder experience from start to finish at Studio Evolve! My tattoo artist was Thora and she made quick but great work of my One Piece tattoo! Everyone was very friendly there and I love the experience of the tattoo shop. I will certainly be returning. Book with them!
Kelsey Sison
I got a tattoo with Taryn. She really does all she can to make you feel comfortable and welcome. She definitely tries to bond with her clients and I think that's great and special. I can tell this shop is full with very talented and great artists.
Dominique Koehne
Love this place! Everyone is nice for the most part. Jeff is the artist I always go to. He is freaking phenomenal!! Very patient, calm, so sweet and his work is amazing!!
Samuel Ruter
The best tattoo experience I've ever had. They all are very kind and professional. Flaco is always a pleasure to work with!
Amber Roth
When the only downside is many of the artists are booked out for several months? That's a great thing.
Clean space and great artists. The artist I had this time, Nikki Canady, took a sketch I did and brought it to life. Made a few changes that just enhanced it. This is a work in progress, so still need to go back to have it finished up. But incredibly impressed.
Will absolutely be going back for more.
Zack Bright
I've been getting tattooed by Lucy Lou there for 7 months and it's been a fantastic experience. The staff is great and it lacks the gatekeeping, pompous attitude a lot of other tattoo shops seem to have. I highly recommend.
Golden
I came here to finish up my tattoo started months ago (I had to save money, so it took time) with Mike Boone. I am so happy with my tattoo and the service provided. Mike is a great artist and seems like a fun person. He is fun to talk to which helps distract from the pain of getting the tattoo. The front desk person was also kind and friendly. I'm sorry for not catching her name, though. Also, as an aside, my husband was also tattooed by Kevin. He's also pretty cool and does great work. We recommend them both. I can't wait to go in for my next tattoo.
Alyssa Vick
My husband and I both have had multiple pieces done here and we love the artists and atmosphere. Thanks Mark and Taylor!
Jehiny Rodriguez
I had such a wonderful experience getting tattooed at Studio Evolve. It was my first tattoo and I was so nervous but I trusted my artist (Jeremy). He made me feel very comfortable and was very understanding to any changes I wanted to make. My tattoo came out exactly how I wanted it, maybe even better.
Nicole Samp
Got my first ever tattoo on my forearm from Kevin. Absolutely amazing work and comfortable (as comfortable as a tattoo can be) experience for my first. He was very open to my ideas, but made sure I was set up with a piece that would last and looked good, capturing everything I was looking for. Friendly and clean environment.
I look forward to working with him again in the near future!!!
Jeffrey Fahie
Really nice place. Came here with the highest recommendation from my brother, sister, and a friend from the area. Really clean and the artists are great at what they do. I'm definitely coming back for a full session as soon as possible.
Tazty Taz
I was introduce to Jamie one the artist here at Studio Evolve by a friend that has some of the most amazing ink done by him. Jamie did a tat for my bday and now I’m working on a sleeve dedicated to my pup. I’m very pleased with his work, it makes that previous tats I got by other artist look shameful… lol.
William Ortiz
Extremely happy with coming here for this tattoo. Very professional from consult until the job is finished. Very willing to work with me, both with schedule and art. Ink looks great!!!!
Andrea Blue
Both my husband and I came to studio evolve for tattoos and got service from Mark and Brendan the communication has been great from beginning to end. We’re really happy with the customer service and will definitely come again.
Kenna Cowens
My artist was Taryn, and it was such a lovely experience! This tattoo is by far my favorite so far!
Alexander Blodgett
Came in after calling to see if they had walk in availability. Staff was super friendly and informative, since it was my first tattoo. Jamie did an amazing job working with me based off my rough sketch and ideas. Will definetly be going back for more ink in the future. My artist is on Instagram @ tattoosbyjamiecary
Brian Taylor
Have had 2 sessions so far, at least one more is needed. Brendan is killing it on my arm piece. The studio is very flexible and have worked with me through scheduling and last minute changes.
Brittney Braun
Taryn was absolutely amazing. Super easy to talk to and did the absolute best job! Highly recommend
Mike Melia
Lucy is amazing!! The only description I gave her was ocean animals underwater scene and she gave me this amazing design. Just finished first session on my sleeve. Can't wait to come back. August at the front was also very helpful in working around my busy schedule to find appointment times that work for me.
Susan Vanschenck
The person at the front desk was super friendly and walked me through the process. My artist, Thora, did an absolutely amazing job- she did exactly what I wanted and I love it so much!! She was so gentle that I almost fell asleep and I found the entire process and atmosphere of the shop very relaxing. The shop is lovely- immaculate with aesthetically pleasing decor. 10 out of 10!
Amanda Cross
Amazing service from the front desk assistance down to the tattoo artists. Brenden is a beast and i love my tattoo!! I will be making my way back in the next week or so.
Justin Dann (Dann the Man)
Jeremy Tatum took a tattoo concept I've had for years and made something awesome! I was reluctant on what the design would be, because all I submitted was a written description via Email. But the final product was even better than I imagined. The studio staff are friendly and down to earth. It's very clean and sanitary. I had a great first tattoo experience here at Studio Evolve.
Nadia Jackson
I got a tattoo by Colleen and she was quick and her line work was great. Overall the tattoo was amazing. I would definitely go back to her and the shop. Which is kept very clean and sanitary.
Melissa Aubain
Very friendly staff. Long wait for appointments but well worth it. I went to Jeff with a rough idea of a custom tattoo featuring my cat and he brought it to life better than I imagined.
Jason Thurston
Studio Evolve is very professional and expedient at processing paperwork, booking, and greeting customers at the door. The quality of the work created by the artists is absolutely fantastic. I was recommended by a friend and I will highly recommend Studio Evolve to friends and family. Great place!
cliff diver
Amazing shop. Wonderful experience. My daughter received her fast tattoo today from Elle. I got my first tattoo from Elle 7 years ago, she is still amazing as ever.
Alissa Castles
I’ve gotten 2 tattoos done by Blake here and each one of them I absolutely adore and love. He’s an amazing artist and I would definitely recommend this place and him to anyone. Everyone is very nice and he’s an overall amazing artist!
Kaitlin Baynard
I had such an amazing experience here with Elle. She made me feel so comfortable and made sure everything was exactly as I wanted it. She is an amazing artist and it came out better than I imagined! From the friendly and helpful front desk staff to artists and the space, I loved my entire experience here.
Andi K
Thora was awesome! I asked for realism and she delivered far beyond expectation. Incredible work! The shops atmosphere was upbeat and positive, clean environment and everyone was fun and professional. Strongly recommend. I'll be back for more!
Eric Dickinson
Nothing but a steady stream of compliments on my tattoo! Johnny is the absolute best!! Highly recommend.
Amanda Maser
I had a great experience. Everyone was super nice and professional. They were really careful due to covid - everyone wore masks the entire time and my initial consultation was via Zoom. I had a coverup done, and I am really happy with how it turned out. It looks exactly like my dog. Mark did an AMAZING job. The other picture shows the original tattoo next to the new one for comparison.
Essence Howard-Watford
Very professional yet warm tattoo shop. Excellent talent there! My artist was personable, accommodating and collaborative. I will be returning to get more work done in the near future.
William Watson
Jamie ( the tattoo artist) did a great job. I’m very happy with the work. The shop is very friendly and the room was very clean. I will be returning for more work. Highly recommended
ShayneLeslie Smith
Jeremy has been working with me on my sleeve and is the most professional, personable, and awesome artist I have worked with. This entire shop makes you feel welcome and like you are a part of their family. 10/10 all day. Amazing place.
Elana Kienzle
I recently had the privilege of getting my very first piece done by Lucy Lou here at Studio Evolve, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! The studio itself is clean, welcoming, well-decorated, and full of good vibes. Everyone I encountered was super professional and friendly. Lucy was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout!!! From the initial consultation, she was excited and confident about the piece, and made sure I was comfortable with every step of the process. I completely adore the work she created for me and she did an amazing job bringing it to life. I highly recommend both Lucy Lou and Studio Evolve and can't wait to go back for my next piece!
Diane Perry
Jamie Cary listened with extreme patience during my consultation. He took my traditional tattoo idea (which was kind of kooky) and turned it into a design that blew away my expectations. The process at this shop is extremely well done. I can tell the scheduling process is beneficial to both the clients and the artists. There’s no rushing people in and out of the shop. There’s a reason they keep winning the Virginia pilot’s best tattoo shop banners every year since 2013. Legit I highly recommend for first timers and veterans of tattooing
Grim Sin
I got my first tattoo today. A friend drew my tattoo, and after talking to the artist, he took the time to put it together in a way that makes it look even more amazing. Great attention to detail, and awesome style.. Thanks again Matt.
That is also, just one, of the many artists at this place... All of them have something amazing to offer.
Madison Zettlemoyer
Studio Evolve is very clean, and the artists are very friendly and talented. My only issue was with scheduling. I would get a call once a month saying my appointment had to be pushed back or the artist wasn’t ready for me. It also noticed that I would schedule for two days, and only one day would be put down, or the times would drastically change. If anything I would simply recommend having the artists provide their availability or unavailability for front desk personnel frequently to prevent any discrepancies. Otherwise a great place and super satisfied!
mikayla mullins
I LOVE Studio Evolve! I came in for a couple small walk in tattoos and the atmosphere and the people are just amazing! The front desk girls were such a help and everyone was so nice! They hooked me up with Jamie Cary and I couldn’t have been happier. He is wonderful and the price was too good! His line work is outstanding and super professional. It was so refreshing having an experience like this. Thank you so so much! I recommend to EVERYONE!
AJ Kinney
Visited Studio Evolve On 1/7/22. I had a wonderful experience. Canada is an amazing artist. She brought my idea to life so much better than I ever imagined. I cannot recommend her enough!
Morgan Fine
Studio Evolve really impressed me yesterday. It is beautifully decorated, impeccably clean, and everyone was friendly and professional. It was one of the best experiences I've had at a Hampton Roads tattoo shop in a long time.
Kayla Lopez
Could find my artist for a while then found him again. Jamie is great! Responds fast and is mega talented. Still have more to go.
Also super clean shop and great asthetic.
Lindsay Quay
My sister and I came here for tattoos. Jamie and everyone at the front desk were amazing- super accommodating, professional, and just awesome. It was a special experience. I had a tattoo with my husband’s writing and Jamie absolutely nailed it. I couldn’t be happier. My sister and I will definitely come back-- highly recommend!
Hannah Jones (Tatted_Witching)
Jeremy Tatum was such an amazing person and artist, we are currently working on a woodsy nature scene sleeve, and everything he has done for it has been hand drawn custom on my arm! He is very light handed and truly listens to what you want and will exceed your expectations!
To go along every artist in this shop does amazing work and is so kind! The work that comes out of this shop is some of the best work I have seen! I refuse to go to another shop even if I live out of state I will come back just for this shop, for the atmosphere, the artists, and everything if I could I would rate this shop a 10/10!!
Brian Maher
Studio Evolve has the best artists in the area! Love the vibe, definitely going back. Shoutout to Thora for this one!
Tar R
Very nice people and Canada did the best tattoo I've had so far! :)
Danica Velena
I absolutely loved it here the staff were super friendly and everything was so clean. Matt Zitman was the one who did my recent tattoo, he did everything just how I wanted & made my tattoo just absolutely beautiful! Now my sailor moon tattoo is by far my favorite one, I'm definitely coming back for more of my future tattoos! Thank you again Matt!
Yoshimura San
My experience with Studio Evolve was Outstanding! Jamie did a Fantastic
job at turning the tattoo I wanted into something better, yet a bit more Original; Not only his Artistic abilities Shine, as well as his Heart. I highly recommend anyone that wants a Tattoo, go to Studio Evolve.
Kim Kham
This was probably the best experience I have ever had at a tattoo shop-- everyone was extremely kind, considerate, and helpful. They paired me with a great artist (Danny) who could exactly execute what I wanted, but even go above and beyond, with the utmost excellence. Danny was extremely helpful in providing his opinion as an artist; he is incredibly talented, professional, and he did such a great job with my tattoo (I continuously receive compliments about my tattoo). I have already told 8 of my friends about Danny and this shop and will continue to recommend them to everyone.
Shiloh Ophelia Smiles
I loved it! Great work and great artists
Ashlyn Echerd
I had a same day tattoo appointment with Jamie Cary. He was very kind and professional. He gave me honest opinions on placement, and gave me exactly what I wanted. My tattoos looks amazing. I appreciate the cleanliness of their work space and the friendliness of all the staff. I definitely recommend studio evolve. Thank you for the great experience!
Steph H
My tattoo by Canada is fantastic. The environment was clean and tidy. She was good company throughout. Best of all the art looks fantastic
Karen Holt
I am an older person (in my 60’s) and this was my first tattoo. When I walked in the studio, I was immediately greeted and asked how they could help. I told them what I was looking for and she recommended Jamie because of his line work. Jamie took time for a consultation (which I might add was very professional and informative). I sent Jamie my reference photo and when I showed up for my appointment, it was more than I ever imagined. Jamie explained everything that was about to happen and even asked how I was doing during his work. I can’t say enough positive things about my experience at this studio and my artist. Am I ready for another one? ABSOLUTELY! @tattoosbyjamiecary
Bethany Allen
Studio Evolve was great! Tommy did a great job of doing matching tattoos with my best friend! August and Abby were Fantastic at the front desk! Highly recommend!
Joshua Broyles
Mark is the best when it comes to tattooing! The studio is very professional and everyone there is friendly! Awesome place to get your next tattoo! Highly recommend Studio Evolve
Courtney Norsworthy
Elle is FANTASTIC! She's been tattooing me since she was an apprentice, so of COURSE I followed her to Studio Evolve when she told me she was moving to VB! I legit felt honored to be her first canvas at the new shop..
And this was a great move for her, too! The atmosphere and layout of the shop are perfect! The receptionists are super friendly and professional as soon as you walk through the door. Every artist (and there are something like 20-30 in the building 🤯) has their own cubicle with just enough privacy for their more revealing pieces, but with the ability to still be social! Super chill place, for sure..
For real though, if you're looking for anything nature based (flowers, landscapes, wildlife, insects, even beautiful faces and gems), book an appt with Elle! She makes sitting through even a 5-6 hour session a cake walk! Great conversations, upbeat personality, and one of the most artistic people I have the pleasure of calling a friend or honor of calling my tattoo artist!
Nicholas Matamoros
The staff was very friendly and professional. The hand sanitizing and safety posters were frequent. They took every precaution necessary to ensure public safety during these times. All of the artist are extremely talented and professional!! I will definitely be getting all of my local work done here. Go see Jamie especially if you're into more traditional tattoo designs!
Jamilyn Lucero
Got my first larger piece back in March with James Rivera and my experience was amazing! He was so cool, professional, and his work just speaks for itself. I had a vision of what I wanted and he exceeded my expectations. Had some great conversations with him and the other artist that were there that day (Nikki and Blake, I think) and it was just an overall awesome time. More than pleased with my tattoo and I will definitely be back.
Dean Cates
Just finished my first tattoo at the studio, and number six in my collection. My artist Thora, was an absolute joy to work with. Brought my idea to life in wondrous fashion, made sure in the event I started to feel uncomfortable we would take a break, and didn't feel like a rushed job. 15/10 would definitely go again
Janae' Logan
Ive gotten 2 tattoo’s by blake they have came out amazing he actually takes to time to make sure its how you want and where You want. Very professional i will definitely be back , come here if you want a good tattoo
N Dolson
My first tattoo here wasn’t great because the artist was unreliable. However, management was great when I brought it to their attention and now I’m working with Jamie who has been awesome! I look forward to finishing my current tat and moving on to others!
Erika Schaubach
Great studio. There's all kinds of styles going on so everyone can find an artist they like. The staff is professional and kind.
Gabe, my artist, not only does wonderful psychedelic pieces but has great energy during the process. I adore his sketch-book heavy line work too.
The studio is very clean with breakrooms for mid-tattoo sugar pick me up. I also enjoy the huge waiting rooms, perfect for group tattoos and waiting for consultations.
Art is on every wall and the place is treated more like a homey gallery. The artists' professionalism is apparent. These people are the best of the best in Hampton Roads, all in one building.
Jonathan Queen
Super chill environment. Everyone there is personable and nice from the moment you walk in the door. The artists here are second to none. They're so fun to talk to but also professional as can be. My artists so far have been Rich and Amy. Zero complaints from me. Thanks for the great work and for the fun times!
Cristen Baldwin
Received a beautiful tattoo from Kris Masterson and am so happy with the quality! She’s a great person and artist. The location of studio evolve was great. The place was clean, the staff was inviting. High recommend from me!
Joe
Can't recommend this place enough. Always highly professional, communicative, transparent, clean, and overall a pleasant experience. Colleen gave me an amazing sleeve with gorgeous artwork and colors, and it was great working with her from beginning to end.
Anissa Markel
Amazing customer service and the tattoo artist are phenomenal and original. Colleen has done three of my tattoos and captured everything and then some. You must go to this place! Highly recommend.
Charles Crawford
Studio Evolve is amazing! Great people and atmosphere all around. I got my work done by Keith Maynard. Keith puts a lot of effort into making the whole process a great experience, and really focuses on the work he puts out. His work is impeccable, to go along with a great personality! Always look forward to sitting in his chair. Highly highly recommend Keith and Studio Evolve no matter if it's your first tattoo or one of many.
Patrick Henry
This is a great location, my wife and I did some research into the local scene and were told by a few folks to check this place out, so we did.
From start to finish the artists and office personnel were very helpful with each step from the consult to deposit to appointments. My wife had some work done with Colleen and myself with Mark. They were both very professional and passionate about their craft and hit the nail on the head with the outcome of our respective tattoo's. Also enjoyed the sense of camaraderie felt while in the chair. Other artists would walk in and say words such as "that is going to be a sick design when finished".
The studio itself is also very clean and the cost is worth it. Highly recommend checking this place out as each piece of ink that comes from there is one of a kind.
Aliya Butler
Just went today to get my tattoo as a walk in with my husband. From the beginning they were professional at the front end and when taking us back to consult with Jamie, he was quick but still precise! I enjoyed the experience and appreciate his art & talent. I’d definitely come back.
danny nichols
James rivera gave me a wicked tattoo and he will definitely do my next one. This facility was very clean and courteous and always asking if I needed anything. The professionalism and promptness of this studio is by far the best I've seen. If you need a tattoo, go to studio evolved!
Emily Nicklin
I had so much fun during my appointment! Everyone was really sweet, and patient with me. I got a tattoo done by the amazing Flaco Martinez, and I love it! During my first appointment everyone in the studio kept coming in to ask how I was doing and wanted to see how the tattoo was coming along and it helped me feel really comfortable! I love this shop!
Megan Buchholz
Studio Evolve is friendly, and has the best artists in the region! Anything you want, they can do! If there’s a waiting period for your particular artist, there’s a reason. Trust the process!
Cathy Nguyen
Got my tattoos done by vall. He's extremely pleasant and an amazing artist to work with.
Hugh Borchers
Every time I've come here the staff have been kind, polite, and professional. Not even just to me they treat each other with so much respect. It's fun nad relaxed it is definitely a great environment.
I followed Jeff Malota from his previous shop and have been beyond pleased with his work. Great attention to detail, ready with suggestions to get the best product for me, throws ideas back and forth so when we're done we're both happy with the product. He did a Super Smash Brothers back piece for someone, it's in one of his books, and that's what did it for me. Great work, detail, you can tell he took his time. Cannot recommend enough.
Elizabeth Cleveland
Thank You Studio Evolve for a wonderful professional Relaxing atmosphere! Thank You James for the awesome tattoo and your time! Thank You Abby for your kindness 😊 I cannot wait for my next visit! …
Damien Acosta
Gonzo!!!! He is the man!! The environment of this tattoo shop is unmatched, I instantly felt welcomed and at home. The art work here is unreal. I had a general idea I wanted and let Gonzo do what he does best and let him run with an idea and I love it. He completely knocked this first piece of many OUT OF THE PARK!!! Amazing experience overall with a more than fair price for such great art. Highly recommend taking a stop by!!!!
Kaleigh Zehr
The staff and artists at Studio Evolve are a friendly, dedicated group who made my experience there an incredible one. I have a stunning piece done by James Rivera over several sessions. He was fun to hang out with during the sessions and the administrative staff made scheduling easy and even call and email to remind clients of their appointments. The studio is a model of cleanliness and excellent theming. Highly recommended for quality ink.
Albert Roddy
Very professional and friendly customer service! The studio is very clean, well setup and organized and immaculate! Amy was the artist I saw and she did a wonderful job of taking my child’s drawing and tattooed it perfectly! An excellent choice and outstanding place to get your next Tattoo!!
Douglas “Deputy H’s Lover!” Stanek
This was my first time at this studio, and Blake was my artist that inked me up. Blake free handed around what was on my upper arm and did a Dynamite job! Just have to go back and get the shading done and on to the next tat. Thank you for having very professional artists and receptionist as well, felt comfortable the whole time I was there. ✊🏽
Laura Morgan
This was my first tattoo! I came with a group of 4 & we were all getting them done together, they worked us in without an appointment & very little wait. This place is CLEAN & professional from the moment you walk in. The check-in/paperwork process was simple & our artist Jamie made sure he took the time to explain everything to us from the design & placement to the aftercare etc. I would definitely recommend this place and our artist Jamie Cary! Thanks so much for a wonderful experience :)
Sarah Whitaker
Studio Evolve is a fantastic studio! I came on the recommendation of a friend and was not disappointed. From first setting up the appointment with sweet Bridget to the actual day with, everything was well explained and very professional. Mike Boone was my artist and he was very patient and kind. He executed the design perfectly. This was my first tattoo in years and I already want to come back!
dareineisha watts
AWESOME environment!!! Everyone is so cool and down to earth and they all make sure you are informed and comfortable with every step!!! Gonzo the artist that did my tattoo did awesome work and was very friendly and easy going. BEST EXPERIENCE I HAVE HAD WITH ANYTHING IN VIRGINIA BEACH!!!
Jessi S
I LOVE this place. Its clean (even smells clean), well lit, EVERYONE is friendly and professional. I started to go here when Abby was there. Now Mark is my go to artist. They have tablets with everyone's portfolio on it. Did I mention how wonderful this place is?? I've gotten several tattoos here and started my right sleeve. The artist do charge by the hour, not the tattoo. And there is a deposit that you can either keep on file, if you're working on a large piece like a sleeve, or you can use it after just one tattoo. The hourly rate varies by the artist, I think. And it's VERY fair pricing considering tattoos are forever. The quality is ALWAYS amazing with all the artist.
Augusta Casone
I love Studio Evolve! The atmosphere is welcoming and the customer service is great. Many of the artists work is displayed on the walls and it all is awesome! Taylor Morrison is my Tattoo Artist; he and the staff were willing to work with me via email to offer consultation because I wasn't local to the Va Beach area. This was a huge travel timesaver. I have had the best experience with Studio Evolve. You will not be disappointed; I recommend them without hesitation.
Kevin Walker
First and foremost, Mark Wroblewski is one of the best artists I've received work from in years. If you are thinking about your first tattoo or are looking to add to your collection, Mark is your guy!
A brief synopsis of my experience with Studio Evolve, I was cordially greeted from a friendly receptionist upon entering the shop. The waiting area could use some new, comfortable furniture, but the wait is only temporary. Once Mark took me back to his workspace, it appeared to be clean, calm, and welcoming. It was obvious that he respects his work, his office, and the tools of the trade. I wasn't expecting an impressive bedside manner from him or the tattoo shop from past experiences of other shops, Mark is a very friendly guy, not intimidating, and ensured his clients are given respect from the initial greeting. I was impressed. The piece I asked him to design was very basic, not complex at all; however, if you check his portfolio, he is experienced and capable of fine detail if one is looking for multi-color design and/or realism. Afterwards, he didn't rush me out to take on his next client, but rather took a little time to discuss the next piece I was thinking about. I may be wrong, but assume this is rare, since time is money and an email can have the same conversation.
To sum it up, Studio Evolve in Virginia Beach is one of the top, if not the top tattoo shop within Hampton Roads. Mark is truly an artist who loves his work and cares for his clients. If you're thinking about where to go, reach out to these guys.

James Rivera is the best. He did a phenomenal black tattoo on my shoulder. I only had an idea of what I wanted and I told him and he designed an amazing design and I couldn't be happier. It took 6 hours for him to do my tattoo and he was very patient when I needed a break. I highly recommend you talk to James, especially for a black tattoo!
Aneisha Reed
This is my second time going to Studio Evolve and both times, I have been treated like a valued client. Taylor was my artist this time, and he was just great! He made me feel comfortable, held a great conversation, and even let me listen to Cattle Decapitation on his music device!
David Orme
Studio Evolve is amazing! The shop is clean and very nice! All the employees were absolutely wonderful in the planning and scheduling process! James did a wonderful job giving my wife and I matching tattoos for our anniversary! They get our highest recommendation!
Samantha Rutledge
This shop is amazing! I got a tattoo from Canada, and it was gorgeous. I didn’t give her an actual picture or idea of what I wanted- I just told her I wanted something sparkly and pretty and she did exactly that. I’ve never seen another artist tattoo sparkles/glitter like she does! Her line work is also flawless. The shop is very clean and the atmosphere is great. Flaco is also a great artist! I haven’t had the honor of being tattooed by him yet, but some of my friends have and his work is also fantastic!!!
michael drye
Got a tattoo done by jeramie it came out amazing!
Hallie Almas
I had a very colorful piece done by Colleen, and it looks fantastic! I really appreciate the attention to detail and striving for perfection. Studio Evolve is definitely my favorite studio in the area, everyone is super professional and inviting, and the creativity flows! Will definitely keep returning.
Selisha Nelson
I received tattoos from Mattlock and he was amazing every step of the way!! This tattoo was very sentimental for me and he made the experience one to remember. The atmosphere was relaxed, clean, and friendly. I would highly recommend Studio Evolve for all your tattooing needs!! 😁 …
Laurena Crosslin
Love the work James does! He’s always in a great mood and loves his job and does amazing work every time. I love the environment of Studio Evolve it’s so warm and welcoming. Will be coming back for more tattoos.
Ryan Velazquez
Get atmosphere and great people. Girls at the front desk are very helpful and friendly. Gonzo is helluva artist and up front with what he can do with your desired work. So you know that you’re getting quality work not just someone who’s gonna take your money. Have always heard great things about the shop and definitely lived up to its reputation.
Victoria Rehling
What a lovely studio and sweet group of people! Everyone is so welcoming and made my first experience amazing, even though I was incredibly nervous. Highly recommend, plus they have a diverse range of artists and styles :) My piece was done by Sierra Orrick and she not only a delight to work with but so talented!
David Ozee
I have and am in the process of getting a tattoo at Studio Evolve. Great place! The staff is knowledgeable and experienced. The artists here are more concerned about you getting the best tattoo you can and having a great experience than they are with making a buck off of you. I have and will continue to recommend this place to people. Keep up the great work!
KRISTEN SCHWEITZER
Fantastic studio! I felt welcomed from the moment I entered the door. Great staff all around ! In love with my piece from Thora ! :)))
Jordan Ward
This tattoo shop is very clean and classy with friendly, professional staff. My husband and I both get tattooed by Colleen who is a fantastic artist that always puts 150% into her work.
Calvin Shamoon
Staff was very helpful. Got a chest piece done by Keith. He did an amazing job. Gave him my idea and the outcome was amazing, I couldn't be more satisfied with how the tattoo came out. Very friendly and professional. Definitely going back to Studio Evolve and Keith for more tattoos in the near future.
Thomas Domerese
Nothing but professional artists here. I personally have been getting tattooed by Danny for over 5 years now and it’s always been amazing in both quality and honesty. Cares deeply about the quality of the art he creates and won’t BS anyone to make a buck. The staff, process and cleanliness of the studio is top notch and a great environment to be in.
Danni Walker
I have gotten a couple tattoos by Mark. The newest one of CoD is really great quality. He takes his time and we always have great conversations when I get tattooed. I will always be a client of Mark and will not go anywhere else! The staff also makes me feel welcomed.
Ashley E
Been coming here for about 2 years now, the shop itself is amazing and has an awesome vibe. Very clean and welcoming :) Highly recommend here for any of your tattoo needs! James has done 2 of my bigger pieces and I couldn't be happier.
Victoria Killinger
Abby did my cover up not quite finished yet but I love the work done already and can't wait to finish.She is unbelievably talented. I recommend her along with everyone else here. I looked for a couple years yes years to get my tattoo on my back covered. No matter how many other places I looked at I kept coming back to studio evolve there work is beyond amazing especially in comparison to their competitors. I could go on for ever with how awesome they are. If your looking for a tattoo and want it done right stop looking and got to studio evolve your not gonna find better in Va beach.
S Moore
I had Mark Wroblewski do a simple but solid piece on my wrist. He took his time getting it set up and was very professional. I also was able to email him the day before and discuss what I was looking for. This tattoo was in honor of my brother, who recently passed away. He was very open to listening to what I was looking for. He also explained why some things I had in mind wouldn't work where and how I wanted it exactly, but he was able to come up with a great design that really honors my brother and still went with the design that I had in mind. He was very professional and again, I really appreciated him taking his time to get my tattoo placement just right. I am planning my next one and will most certainly use him again.
Sean Burton
Amazing professional experience. Amazing work by Jay. Very happy with my experience today to the point that when I went to work and learned a co-worker was looking to get a tattoo with her husband I immediately recommended my artist and studioevolve. My children who inspired the tattoo absolutely loved it as well .
Dustin Kirkland
Studio Evolve is a great tattoo studio. Blake is an awesome artist who is attentive to the finished product and to the desires of the customer. Will always return!
L R
Studio Evolve is hands down one of the best shops I've ever been to. As soon as you walk into the door the receptionists are so welcoming. The shop itself is super clean and very well decorated. All the staff that I've met have been super friendly with insane talent. I would definitely suggest getting tattooed here!
Mount Rushmore
FYI - I do not give 5 stars easily (and this was my first tattoo ever).
The establishment is inviting, clean, and professional. The staff was friendly and welcoming. My artist was beyond exceptional, she was attentive to my design and creatively made it fit well on the location by adjusting size. We even had to reschedule to another day so she could redraw the graphic to fit better in the location. The tattoo itself was beyond expectations with solid line work, shading, and more. She even offered a free one-time touch up if needed.
They do charge 3% for credit cards if you do not want to pay cash.
Brittiani Chamblee
I'm in the process of a cover up, and my first session was amazing!! Gonzo was super friendly and more than accommodation with changes I wanted tomake to his design. A typical painful process flew by. I' can't wait to have my finished piece! The staff were also super friendly!!
Sav Harwick
Studio Evolve is absolutely amazing! I’ve been to a few shops and they haven’t been up to par. But I love Evolve! Everyone has super clean and dope work. I see James and he is incredible! If you are looking for a great shop with amazing artists then you found the place!
Tristan Pogue
Great clean place for your tattoos. Had a few small tattoos in mind and Mark was patient with me making sure everything was perfect and to my extremely particular taste. Felt comfortable getting my simple tattoos done in a place that clearly does a lot of amazing work. What a fun experience!
Megan Brown
My husband and I have had multiple tattoos done by Mark and now Zitman. The studio is clean, the staff is always professional and the work is amazing. By far our favorite studio in VB!
Jordan Kucy
Awesome studio! I worked with Brendan, he was incredibly talented and able to give me the exact tattoo I wanted.
Brenton Hicks
This place, and my artist Mattlock, went above and beyond any expectations I could have possibly had. The shop is super clean. Every artist in there is extremely friendly. And the work I had done looks like something from a magazine. I recommend Studio Evolve to anyone serious about getting a tattoo. I will personally never look anywhere else to get a tattoo.
A.C. Tierney
I just got my first tattoo done today at Studio Evolve and I was so impressed and pleased with my experience! The artists are amazing and extremely professional. The staff at the front are super friendly and willing to help potential clients find an artist that best suits them. The studio is clean and inviting and I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking to get a beautiful custom tattoo.
Danielle Myers
I got my first tattoo at Studio Evolve and I have come back for two more since then. The front desk staff is friendly and the tattoo artists take the time to make sure you get exactly what you want. They produce high quality art work and I would recommend Studio Evolve to anyone looking to get a tattoo in this area.
Jess Darrigo
Professionalism is top notch here! These are Hampton Roads best artists by far. If you want custom work, an experience like no other, surrounded by phenomenal artists then this is your place to be. The studio is covered with paintings from the artists that honestly deserve to be showcased at the Chrysler Museum of Art. This place is beyond clean which is very important when getting a tattoo. I have been a faithful client of Marshall Sinclair for about 3 years now and I honestly couldn't be happier. Prices are fair, because what you walk away with...well go check out the artists portfolios and you will see why. Best of Hampton Roads winners for a reason.
Gustavo Medrano
Great place, had a cover up done by Marshall. The staff is friendly, and polite. All the artists are well versed and talented in their area of expertise. This is the kind of place where you get a work of art as opposed to a slab of ink. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking to get a quality piece.
Daniel Leveque
My first time getting a tattoo and the experience was excellent. Jay explained everything in detail and made me feel comfortable. I was very nervous at first but that changed quickly. Highly recommend Jay and Studio Evolve.
Angel Deans
I absolutely love Studio Evolve. The studio is clean, the staff is professional, and the receptionist was very helpful directing me to the type of artist that I was searching for. Nikki Canady is phenomenal. She has done 2 separate cover ups for me that other artists in the area wouldn't touch. Thank you Nikki!!
Alden Schodt
Absolutely the most talented artist you can find around, Elle is a great person and even better artist !!!
Aaron Foran
Great people, really friendly and very professional; and the atmosphere is very comfortable. The artists are talented and realistic with their abilities and styles. If they don’t think they are the best artists for the project you want, they will refer you to another artist within the shop to make sure you get the best product for your time and money.
emily caraballo
Been coming here for about 2 years now and this is the place to go if you want to get a new tattoo or cover-up. All artists are professionals. Love James. Love everybody. Clean shop and they direct you in the right direction for what you can imagine. I get people to come here all the time and they love it. Spread this place around! There is a reason why they keep winning best place to get a tattoo award in VA Beach. Or really anywhere in the peninsula Hampton area.
Neil Strom
The studio is one of the best I've ever been to throughout the country. All the artists are extremely helpful in all aspects of your art and will make sure they match you with the artist best fitting the style you want. They definitely make sure you're satisfied with the artwork before they even begin.
Sean Conley
A great tattoo experience start to finish!
The friendly welcoming staff showed me artists portfolios and I was overwhelmed by the skill of the artists there. I told them what I was after and I was introduced to an artist right away that specialized in what I was after. Kevin Baker had me an appt for me in 2 days and it was an awesome time. He showed me different versions of the tattoo beforehand with different colors and it helped a lot l. It was also the first time I’ve been give the clear bandage for the tattoo and it worked out really well for the healing process. I’m looking forward to my next tattoo with these guys and girls
Kaylin Harman
Went in as a walk in and I'll be going back there for sure !colleen was amazing!! She was very understanding when I had a hard time telling her what I wanted because the tattoo is emotional for me. She is also very light handed and easy to talk to. Cant wait to schedule an appointment for a big tattoo
Darian Wills
I came here with no prior tattoos and wasn’t real sure about the whole process, but gonzo was greatly helpful with the whole process. Not only was he amazing with his creativity, but he helped me piece together my ideas since I am not artistically gifted. I recommend this shop for anyone and everyone!!
Bathory Synystra (Bathory313)
If you want to pop in for a quick, generic flash tattoo............bye Felicia. This isn't that kind of shop. If you want a great custom tattoo, this is the place to come! Very neat, clean, well-ordered. A nice variety of artists who will gladly give you a consult on your dream piece. Very professional atmosphere. I got my octopus with a clock face and gears finished today by Mattlock Lopes and his work is OUTSTANDING. I would not hesitate to recommend any artist here.........what are you waiting for?
matthew meskimen
Very clean. Strictly enforcing Covid safety precautions. James Rivera was my Artist and he was a friendly Artist to work with and did an incredible job on my Tattoo. It came out even better than I envisioned.
Jonathan Carrillo
This shop is fantastic, very accommodating. I walked in with a idea and got set up with an amazing sleeve definitely recommend if your looking for ink and you want quality!
Kimmie Cenzon
It was my first time getting tattooed at Studio Evolve and I was definitely not disappointed! Super chill atmosphere and the employees were really helpful and easily approachable. Mondo did a great job on my piece and I’ll definitely be coming back for my future tattoos!!!
Mel D
First tattoo for me. After researching several VB options I picked this one and I'm completely satisfied with my experience. Jamie was my artist and he did a fantastic job on the work. I'll be referring friends and family for sure. And if you're reading this, check them out.
Ashley Earley
Jamie is the best! He did my daughters 1st tattoo. It was it honor of her father who passed away. Jamie blew up his handwriting from a card he gave her and gave her exactly what she wanted. I highly recommend him and this studio.
Mike Fugere
A couple friends recommended Studio Evolve and now it is the only tattoo parlor I will go to. Don't get me wrong, there are some great studios in Hampton Roads, but Evolve is a cut above the rest. The artists are all friendly and super welcoming (I've been working with Flaco, who feels like he's a kindred spirit). The young ladies who work up front are very friendly and really try to work around your schedule when it comes to penciling in sessions.
I couldn't recommend this place more. No matter what you're looking to get done, they have an artist there who can help.
-Mike
Greg Smith
Very professional shop with a great atmosphere and staff! My artist was Mark Wroblewski - he really worked with me and addressed all questions I had. I would definitely recommend this studio to anyone interested in getting high quality work in the Hampton roads area.
Steve DiGiampietro - Sylentdarkness PSN account
My stepdaughter just had a heart transplant and I wanted to get a tribute tattoo for it. I went into Studio Evolve with a basic idea of what I wanted and I chose Mark Wroblewski as the artist to design the tattoo, I was amazed at the design and detail he laid out in this tattoo, he is truly a gifted artist and will definitely look to him in the near future for more work to be done. Everybody at Studio Evolve is very friendly and make you feel welcome. If you are looking to get ink done, look no further than Studio Evolve. They have so many artists there that you are bound to find an individual that matches up with the style you are looking for.
Jeffrey H. Strauch
Johnny Renteria is a very talented tattoo artist! He started my first tattoo on June 8th, and finished it yesterday. I am very pleased with the final product! The atmosphere is pleasant and there seems to be a lot of other talented artists here at Studio Evolve. I’ll be back! I can’t wait for my next tattoo!
John Kipp
Great staff, clean facility, very professional and helpful. My artist, Mattlock, has been doing my sleeve and is always ready with fresh ideas (that blow my mind) and his skills are the best in the business as far as I'm concerned. Can't go wrong with this studio!
Jioia Romanchuk
Thank you Mark! I love my new art work! James did a great job on my son's eagle.
Nat Rivieccio
Studio is clean and I love the private rooms. Mark W did wonderful work, exactly what I wanted. I was part of a large group attending a conference and he was prompt, courteous and accommodating doing advance planning/consulting by email. Very happy!
Steven Abasta
Saw Taylor Morrison today at Studio Evolve. He’s done some amazing work for friends of mine. Took a leap and tried him out. Very pleased with not only his professionalism but how professional Studio Evolve is. 100% recommend and will be back
Jennifer Land
Jeremy was patient and designed the best tattoo I could have imagined! Turned out great!
Snorky801
Studio Evolve is the best Tattoo experience in Hampton Roads. I shopped around at many shops before deciding to go with Studio Evolve. This shop is hands down the best shop for me. It is always clean, have a great vibe, and is staffed with stellar artists. The people there are kind and professional. The shop owner Gabriel CeCe is my tattoo artist. He has taken my ideas to whole new heights with his creativity and attention to detail. After many sessions I've nothing but super-terrific experiences here.
Brian Fraley
I looked into many tattoo shops prior to deciding on Studio Evolve. They have great customer service both times I was there. I got a custom one off tattoo that was one of the easiest experiences I've had. Very happy with everything and will highly recommend! My artist was Mattlock.
Sam Armstrong
Danny is the best Japanese traditional artist in VA. Highly recommend!
Cat DeLong
Awesome staff, understanding and willing to work with your schedule. Matt is awesome and is really helpful bringing ideas together!
Jaimie Bradsher
Mattlock does my work and he’s amazing! Hands down . I wouldn’t go to any other tattoo artist in Virginia. A lot of great artists at this shop to choose from though . And the staff is always friendly.
Chananjah Duncan
Got my first tattoo here! Hip floral arrangement with BLAKE!!! Super friendly staff, clean studio, great communication! 💯 Definitely see BLAKE for your next tattoo! 😊 …
Carrie Cross
This place is so wonderful! It is very professional and clean. It is also filled with a kind and welcoming team of artists. My piece ( by Gabriel CEce) came out exactly how I wanted. I am so impressed by This studio.
Phenom
I'm getting my leg sleeve done by Mattlock and he is doing an amazing job. Always professional and courteous when dealing with him. Everyone at the shop is very friendly and helpful. The shop has always been clean whenever I have been in there. If you're looking for some amazing black and gray work make sure you check out Mattlock Lopes!
Angela “Ang” W
Colleen is awesome. We had two tattoos done and she got us in in a short timeline and did an excellent job. The studio is very cool, very clean, and a great environment
Jenifer Watlington
This shop elevates the whole experience of getting tattooed. The whole place is clean, bright and welcoming. The staff is knowledgeable and you will find the best artists VB has to offer. Why would you get tattooed anywhere else?
lumleys
Studio Evolve,
Just a quick note to anyone that reads these reviews before picking a studio in VA Beach for ink.
If I could give 10 stars, I would. The fact is, Studio Evolve is great and I'll give a quick reason as to why.
I do not live local to the studio anymore. I live about 4 hours away. Meaning all my appointments and re-schedules and updates are through email and phone calls. The staff there, couldn't be more helpful and friendly. Not once was I ever questioning professionalism and integrity. The email response was quick and painless. Phone calls are always quick and easy as well. I've had to rescheduled with an artist a few times due to work related engagements but not once was I ever treated like my business didn't matter.
The studio is clean and full of awesome art. I think it's safe to say the floors are clean enough to eat off. Another thing that I as a customer look at, restrooms. I think the cleanliness of a restroom says a lot about a business, and again, clean enough to eat off the floors (if your into that sort of thing).
My artist, is in my opinion, one of the best I've ever come across. All started with the good ol Gram of Insta's (Instagram). Followed him for a long while before I said to myself, "gotta get some work from him, you would be crazy not too." So I did, 95% of my left arm to be exact.
I live and work in a area where there are just a lot of tattoo parlors and people with tattoos. I would say a few times a week, guys and girls will ask, "dude, where did you get your ink?!" Or "dude, that's so sick." Or "wow, stop staring at yourself in the mirror." And it pumps me up to know I've got great art that I will always love. Do you care? Probably not. But if your still reading, just understand that this place is legit and I would be happy with a tattoo from any of the artists. So for what it's worth, thanks Studio Evolve.
Brooke Swords
Love this place! I feel so comfortable getting tattooed here! Everything is clean and sanitary, as it should be. I think my favorite thing abou Studio Evolve is that no matter where you look, you have something fun to look at. The way the decorated this place is so unique and fun! Highly recommend 👌🏻 …
Aubren Saunders
I’ve been coming to studio evolve for years always great friendly experience. They keep everything nice and clean. I go to James Rivera but I’ve seen everyone work and they all great I highly suggest stopping by for any tattoo inquires!!!!!!
Jordan Davenport
Just got my tattoo from James and the man is a beast !!! Love this place and I recommend it to anyone looking to get a tattoo him and Taylor are monsters and cool to just talk to as well. James was very understanding since I have a low pain tolerance he also tattood my girlfriend and her sister! Five stars!!
Justin
Got my first tattoo done here a couple nights ago, and it's an awesome place! Very clean, and makes you feel right at home. I haven't seen any reviews on him, but I got a Kylo Ren tat done by Crik and he did an awesome job! Very good artist. Every future tat I get will be from him.
Shana Martin (Rockerchic)
Super clean and the staff is friendly. They work together and work with you to make an amazing piece of art. Not once have I felt intimidated to be there. If you are looking for a great quality, long lasting, beautiful tattoo, I recommend this place. They are serious about what they do and it shows.
Jenny Telford
Everyone in the studio is so nice. I had an awesome experience! Carl Huggins was very patient with me as we collaborated on my tattoo. So happy with his work!! Great conversation and music to help distract from the pain. Thanks again! I will be back!
Aaron PInkel
Studio Evolve is by far the most professional and cleanest tattoo studio that I have been to. You won't find a bad artist in the building, and they have multiple artists with a big enough experience background to accommodate any type of tattoo. All of the artists are friendly and helpful with planning new tattoos or adding to older pieces of work. I strongly recommend Studio Evolve to anyone looking to get a tattoo.
Hughezy
My artist is doing amazing work and the staff and environment is a great place to be around. Definitely one of the best tattoo shops in Virginia!
Jenn Ewan
This is by far the most amazing studio in all of everywhere! The owner Gabe is my artist and he has 18 amazing artists on staff. From the moment you walk in you feel at home. Everyone is super friendly and it is beautiful and clean!!! Will be the only place I get my work ever!!!!
Justin Janssen
I was very impressed with how they conducted themselves and how responsive they were to my questions. I have been into a few tattoo shops and this one was the cleanest and friendliest staff I’ve encountered. Will be coming back for sure.

On vacation and decided to get a tattoo. Coleen was my artist and I couldn’t be happier. Beautiful line work and the color is amazing. The shop is also very clean and is recommended to anyone I know of in the area.
E Merry
Great staff, amazing artists. There are some clear reasons why they keep winning the Best of Hampton Roads.
Flaco Martinez is working on a new piece for my and it has started off with huge compliments and we are only at the black and gray stage. Can't wait for the finished product.

jessica rose
I LOVE getting tattooed here. They’re super professional and I always love the work I see come from them. I highly recommend.
Kira S
Studio Evolve is the absolute best. All of the artists are individually unique, and incredibly talented. I've had the opportunity to work with a few of them--Mark W, Gabe, and Nikki--and have loved every piece.
If you want good work, this is where you'll find it.
Billy Reyes
Gonzo is the Man!! Got my first tattoo and i was excited, but nervous.
Place is super professional, clean, and their work is awesome. Came in for my first session of a half sleeve and couldnt be happier.
Kimberlee R
Liked everything about this place. Office staff and artists treat clients professionally with laid back vibe. Mark was my artist. He worked with my images and ideas, and brought them to life on my skin. Highly recommend.
Mari Contreras
I wrote a review here about a month ago about how horrible my experience was with one artist in particular. After ranting and giving it a one star review, I received a phone call from the studio as well as a package in the mail. They apologized sincerely and offered a discount on a tattoo if I would give them another chance. The way they went about this was very professional and personally, I haven't seen many companies at all 'bend over backwards' to make things right. Given this, I think I'll be going back and meeting up with another artist. Given I haven't gone back yet, I'll put 4 stars now for their effort in showing they truly care about the customer and their experience. This has made me see them in a new light and hopefully meeting a new artist will make this place the 5 star experience I've read about.
Gr Cole
Welcoming atmosphere! So clean and professional w the most talented artists. Lucy Lou is the best wonderful to work with! She took my idea and turned it in a masterpiece. Thank you Studio Evolve!
Madison Le Moine
Keith Maynard is a phenomenal tattooer he has done a cover up for me which is out of this world, you can't even tell it's a cover up it just looks like a bad ass piece of art, and a forearm piece that is remarkable. My color hasn't faded after over a year and he really listens to your input, ideas, and wants. 100% recommend!
Autumn Smith
Nikki Canady did my first ever tattoo and she did an amazing job. It's so beautiful! She also really took her time with getting it right and she never seemed impatient about it either. Im definitely going back to her for my next tattoo.
Katie Cooper
I've gotten 3 tattoos by 3 of the artists here and couldn't be happier. The staff is amazing and the shop is super clean. I recommend it to anyone looking for some ink therapy.
Annette DeSimone
I haven’t gotten my tattoo done yet, however the staff there are Super Awesome & I’m currently working with Mark who is extremely Helpful & understanding with giving me exactly what I’m looking for! I’m very excited thus far!!

Sadie Mouton
I absolutely love Studio Evolve. The studio is clean, the staff is professional, and the receptionist was very helpful directing me to the type of artist that I was searching for. James is a really good tattoo artist thank you James
Tina Connell
Studio Evolve is everything you hear plus more. First of all, it is completely professional, nestled in an office park. Everything is clean and the studios are very private. Gorgeous and relaxing views of Mt. Trashmore and the lake and trail. The staff is courteous and helpful. Sierra has done two pieces for me and I say without reservation that she is my tattoo soulmate! If you are a seasoned consumer or a first timer who might need a little hand holding, you will not find a friendlier or nicer place to go.
Jillian Coscia
Very organized, very clean, very friendly. Always enjoy my time at Studio Evolve. I’ve been working with Lucy Lou on a full sleeve and I’m always in awe of her talent. Only great things to say about this place!
Hannah Leckemby
After spending several months working on a leg piece with Mark Wroblewski, I can honestly say that Studio Evolve’s atmosphere is welcoming and calming. I was new to large tattoo pieces, this newly finished one being my first but Mark and the recpetionists helped me feel comfortable and relaxed! 10/10 , would do again.
Michael Aitchison
Fantastic work! Couldn't be happier! Extremely detailed design exactly what I had in mind. James did a phenomenal job. I highly recommend James Rivera and Studio Evolve for anyone who's looking for a professional and friendly environment. Thanks!
Death the Baby
Went in with a friend because she had an appointment for a tattoo, the place is beautiful and everyone is so nice. I wanted to get a small tattoo while there and Kevin offered to do it before another appointment he had and it came out awesome! Will definitely be back!
Jacob Burrell
Amazing place to get your artwork done!!! Been coming here for a couple years when I can, Mattlock is amazing and I can't wait to finish my back and get more work done!! Get your tattoos here if you want some real artwork on your canvas!!
Bob Scarlett
This place is awesome!!! Clean building, good artists, friendly staff. Rich did a dagger through a rose for me and it turned out great. I didn’t like color but he convinced me it was a good idea and I like it even better now.
Zachary Highsmith
Great place! They have a very nicely decorated building and my artist (Mark Wroblewski) did a great job on my tattoo! Will definitely come again.

Had a bad experience years ago and wanted a cover up. Not only did James cover up the piece but he took my vision to a whole nother level. I would recommend this place to anyone. The shop is really clean and every employee is friendly.
Cindy Pierson
Incredible place to get inked. All the artists have a style that can meet anyone’s needs. I highly recommend Studio Evolve for your first tattoo or for the experience tattooer’s.
Christy Young
Studio Evolve is, funny as it sounds, our family tattoo studio🙃 I trust Gabriel and his artists enough to send my kids to them...now that's a 5 star review. Matlock Lopez is a just SUPERB as well 💖👍 …
kyle bouska
A Tattoo shop with heart and skill. each of the Artist take pride in the ink they lay down, most tattoos that are done here are custom drawn by the Artist of your choosing, give the idea or concept and have a one of a kind piece drawn up for you. Prices are good based on the quality of work you are getting... staff is friendly and welcoming.. comfortable place to get some ink time in.
Kim N
Taylor was amazing! He did my tattoos exactly like the pictures. He's so friendly and professional.

Great shop, great artists.
Jacob Brown
Jamie was great and did a fantastic job, and the studio was very welcoming and clean. Very happy with the work and would recommend to my friends.
Stacy Lerma
Lucy is my girl. She’s hooking up a shoulder flower tattoo. She’s patient and detail oriented with her work and the colors are amazing. Also, the bathrooms are so clean I’d eat off the floor in them.
Johnny Noto
Clean shop and awesome people but if you're expecting to get a tattoo this year turn around. Waiting list is months for most people. Some even taking appointments for the year 2017. Might as well stop taking appointments and start hiring more people if you ask me. But if time is all you have definately worth the wait. 4/5 simply for the inconvenience factor.
ariel thornberry

Called in to set up an appointment (3 weeks from the call date). Had an appointment with Gonzo. He sat down with me (30 minutes) and talked about the idea. I came in for the appointment and the different ideas he had blew my mind, and my tattoo came out better than I imagined.

Christopher
DOPEST ARTWORK WITHIN VA !!! There is something about going to a tattoo studio and feeling like you are in the dopest most amazing , clean, modern art gallery you've ever been to. When I tell you its dope..I mean the artwork here ECLIPSES every other shop within 100 miles. The talent here is AMAZING and groundbreaking. If you took the worst artist here..which there isnt one..and put them up against any other shop you'd see clearly why this place is the place to go. I'm sooo happy I ran into this place. I also want to add that the atmosphere was clean and warm and welcoming although a little difficult to find at first. The guy behind the counter was soo helpful and it was refreshing to see the heart and effort put into the artwork. This place is AMAZING. You wont want to get tatted anywhere else, and their prices are the same as the other shops with ALOT WORSE artwork. You won't be disappointed !!!
Leslie Reed
Nikki Canady did an amazing job! Perfect tattoo to commemorate my mother. Clean lines beautiful artwork. AMAMZING! Highly recommend.

James Busch
I'm reluctant to review this place, everything about it is awesome, I'm afraid if word gets out EVERYONE will want to get their tattoos here, meaning I'll have to wait longer for appointments. Regardless, this place IS worth the wait. Clean, inviting, no pressure and the artists are crazy talented. I won't go anywhere else.
Trey Miller
First tattoo experience. Clean and professional shop. Great experience. Colleen worked with us on the design. Will def be coming back.
