Homeward Bound Tattoo

I got a large passionflower tattooed on my shoulder by Jesse. The outcome FAR exceeded my expectations, it is STUNNING. Jesse is professional, meticulous, highly skilled, & easy to be around (the tattoo took several hours). I felt the pricing was extremely fair, especially given his stellar work. The environment, too, was very professional. I absolutely would recommend this business to anyone, & fully intend to return here for any future tattoos. more

I recently turned 18 and like many kids my age, decided I wanted a tattoo. I wanted to do my research before I trusted my skin to just anyone so I checked out all of the parlors in the surrounding areas. I was surprised to find the cleanest and most professional of them all was in my hometown, a place called homeward bound. Pros: Patient, Friendly, Clean, Great Professionals Cons: If you have something against johny cash, watch out more

I have gotten 2 tattoos from Jesse and one of them was my sons newborn hand print,it is amazing how good it looks. My husband has also got all of his work done there and we won't go anywhere else. Jesse is not only a great tattoo artist but he also draws a lot of his work himself. To me,if you are getting something put on your body for life go somewhere you can trust and Homeward bound is that place. more

I have gone to Homeward Bound Tattoo for every one of my tattoos. The parlor is a clean, relaxed, smoke-free environment which really does feel like home. The artists and piercers are all lovely people who care about what they do and actually make great efforts in what they do; they are patient, kind and understanding. These are not people who come to work drunk or wield tattoo machines in a pompous manner. I cannot continue to speak for all of the artists, but I can continue on with Jesse. Jesse is the most meticulous perfectionist I have ever known (what he calls ""picky""), but it works in this setting. This is a man who will spend thirty minutes drawing out a single letter because the ""B"" is not up to his high, high expectations - but he never fails to consult with his clients and determine what it is they really want (and if the color of this lady's dress is red or pink or tan, and is it okay if the placement of a block of text on your forearm will leave a disc of space at the top, and will it be comfortable for you if your arm is moved in suchandsuch a manner?). This is a man who slaves away at his work in every sense of the term, until his back aches, his head is splitting and his hand is cramped. Jesse truly is an artist. He is Renoir with a tattoo machine, and I do not say that lightly. Pros: Patient, thorough artists who strive to do their best. Cons: Are there any cons? more

I know Jesse and am familiar with most of the employees at Homeward Bound. Although, I, myself, have never had the pleasure of having a tattoo done by Jesse, I do know several people who have and their inkwork is phenomenal! more
