Lucky Bamboo Tattoo

Definitely skip Lucky Bamboo - or rather, don't get your tattoo from Jared. I wanted a small tattoo and he acted like I was just wasting his time. He forgot about the appointment, arrived late and acted like I was a throw-away client. Very bad customer service - he didn't even bother to give after care instructions, even though he knew it was a first tattoo. Thankfully, the nice person at the front desk filled me in. His whole attitude was ""let's just get this stupid thing over with."" So of course, the tattoo itself was poorly done. Months later, I had another shop re-do my tattoo and the guy said the line work was sloppy and I was way overcharged for what I got. The shop itself was clean and the other staff were very nice but stay away from the owner - he has no respect for the art. more

I just had work done by Christina yesterday and she was awesome. I couldn't have been happier with the shop and work she provided. I visited many different shops in the Davis and Salt Lake County and this by far had the best feel from the time I walked in. They provided great help and guidence. I to have had work done in San Diego and this by FAR was a better experience. I can't wait for my next appointment. Thanks Christina I couldn't be happier.... Pros: Professional, Awesome atmosphere more

I have been to a lot of tattoo shops in utah and Lucky Bamboo is by far the best. The place is really nice on the inside-they put a lot of effort into making it relaxing inside. The staff is great-they will openly talk to you about anything-and answer any questions you have. The first time i went into Lucky Bamboo i wanted my sleeve fixed from the tattoo shop down the street-that place was a whole in the wall, with people who made it look like they just were into it for the money. Jarred happily looked at the tattoo and gave ideas to fix it and gave me a price that he would do it for. and now the finished product is amazing. The second time i went in there i wanted a pin up on my ribs-again Jarred looked at the area, i found my references that i wanted to use and he started-it took many sessions to complete it but now it looks amazing as well. This is the absolute best place in utah to get a tatoo, or peircing that i have been to in both San Diego and Utah! Pros: Helpful staff with lots of experience and care. Cons: none at all! more

I had been debating a tattoo on my ankle for quite some time. I had a mishap with ink on my neck getting all screwed up, so I decided to be choosy on where I went. I called Lucky Bamboo to see about a consult, and they told me they could consult me right then if I wanted to. So I drove down there, it was like 8:30, explained to Kollin what I wanted.. where.. and I even had a couple very tiny pictures to give him an idea. Pros: Helpful, Willing, Professional, Relaxed more

This is the prime example (below) that you cant please everyone....isnt it funny how this comment is the only negative one. Yes we kept your deposit after spending many hours designing and drawing your piece which you did see drawing for(pieces of this nature dont happen over night). You wanted to cram a bunch of stuff in it that wouldnt go well with the piece so I started the new drawing which I told you I would have done by end of the week, you say ok....you show up before the end of the week angry that the drawing wasnt done and said you would go somewhere else! I apologize that you didnt get the service you wanted with me but sometimes it takes time to complete a piece of this size especially one as challenging as this, now if you had given me freedom on this piece it would have been completed quickly but the more demands on the piece the harder it is to get it done and have it look good. Last but not least....I did act like it wasnt a big deal....you came in and made a scene while I was tattooing a client and I was happy for you to take your business elsewhere.So please stop the lies and I strongly advise you to stop the slander....strongly! more

I went into lucky bamboo, looking to get a chest piece and half sleeve. I had a few things I wanted to include in this tattoo. Since this is a custom tattoo shop, I thought I was in good hands. I explained to the owner/artist what I wanted to include in the piece and I would leave the rest up to him. He told me that it wouldn't be a problem, and that it would all be drawn up before my appointment so if I wanted any changes, he could do them on my appointment. Pros: clean enviorment Cons: This shop will scam you out of your deposit!! more

you should go into this shop if you are going to get a tattoo in utah im still amazedi hadnt heard about it before i started looking for the shop to get my work done at. granted it hasnt been open for more than a year yet. all of the employees and the owner have a great attitude i didnt get cold stares and sighs when i went to get my work done. i dont have much more room to cover but i can assure you that when i get to it i will be going back to lucky bamboo and not think twice. Pros: good energy and good attitudes more

I am so excited to find a shop of this calliber in utah. I recently moved to utah from out of state where i had work previously finished by artists at other fine tattooing establishments. Since moving to utah i have been searching for a high end shop with classic american service. Although it took me a while to find a shop that fit my needs, I am pleased to say that lucky bamboo has gone above and beyond with my needs and expectations. If you are interested in a fine business in which to be tattooed lucky bamboo is the best option i have yet to find. Pros: really great service more

I had an amazing first tattoo experience at lucky bamboo i walked in feeling nervous and not sure of what to look for in a tattoo shop and as soon as i walked through the door one of the employees was talking to me about my first tattoo and even took the time to give me a tour of the shop and explain the way that the use and prepare all of thier equipment to provide a safe sterile and artistic environment to protect the health of thier clients. i recieved a tattoo from christina that turned out great and came back a week later to get my second tattoo from Kollin a little bit bigger this time that also turned out awesome. i would highly recommend lucky bamboo tattoo to anyone that is getting thier first tattoo or anyone that is trying to find a good experience that they havent been able to find anywhere else. thanks again guys and good luck!!! Pros: Amazing artwork, verry verry clean shop, service was great, proffesional artists more

First of all I saw picures of their shop and work on the website and on their myspace page which is what brought me to check them out, I was amazed at how nice, calm and professional the atmosphere and buidling was. I have been in many shops and this was the nicest by far!!! The artwork is amazing and they actually took the time to sit down with me and draw a custom tattoo which I have tried 3 other shops to do this for me. They took photos of my arm, made 3 initial sketches for my options of my sleeve, I picked the second and we setup an appointment to get it drawn on and tattoo it the same day. There was no rush and they made me feel very great about my options and what I wanted, you can tell that they want to delver what is wanted more than anything not just bangin out tattoos for cash. Great Shop! Very proffessional and relaxing environment, I would highly recommend them to anyone that is sick of the norm around here!! Pros: nice building, great location. more
