Good prices. Doing COVID well enough. Lindsey did a great job and I will 100% be back to see her again. Their prices seem fair and they are quick to respond for appointments.

Casey Kon is an absolute genius when it comes to shading and line work. This shop as a whole is so amazing with the most phenomenal people. If youre kind and pay for quality you will get some killer pieces from Claw&Talon. Thank you Casey and thank you to all you beautiful people, Vinny, Wes, & Lindsey for being so sweet to a newbie like me. I am adding color to this beautiful creation in a little but this is the majesty that Casey has created thus far:

Lindsey Foy has done 3 of my tattoos now. She is very talented, takes the time to listen to what I want, and was super kind and accommodating when I wanted to add something on to one of my tattoos the next day. She did a portrait of my Akita that I get so many compliments on. I will definitely work with her again!

I’ll say first that the artists in the shop were very down to earth and I felt like we got along really well right off the bat. I came in to just get some background/negative space filled in on my sleeve. I don’t even know what say. I’m planning on going somewhere else ASAP, hopefully find a better artist that can either salvage this or just black the whole section out as a cover-up piece. I hate to say this because the guy that tattooed me was a really likable guy, but after about 45 minutes in I realized that he was not a competent tattoo artist. He was very receptive to working with me, spending more time to blend colors and focus on details as we saw fit, very personable. But at the end of the day there was no real artistic talent or intuition from either of the guys there. The women next to me got a tattoo on her leg and did not seem excited about it.This was an overall disappointing experience for me. I will not be returning. I honestly don’t think this is the place you want to have someone permanently draw on your body unless you’re a cheap college student and don’t care about making mistakes yet.Cheap prices tho >.

Felt very rushed. Ultimately, didnt get the tattoo I wanted but it was good enough...

This wasn’t the biggest shop but the artists were all very kind. It was a good vibe and they were really helpful in making decisions around the design I’d chosen. Vince (the owner) is an amazing human and he alone is worth going there. Lindsay did a masterful job with both tattoos she gave me and she was extremely accommodating.

Great shop and artist except venny. I have got a tattoo here about a year ago and it’s beyond faded. Line work is off shading is off and my skin is rejecting the brand of ink he used. Would not advice going here

Came in with a basic tattoo idea as a walk-in and Mark was willing to take the time to figure out exactly what I wanted & to work with me on getting the tattoo done exactly the way I wanted it. He took the time to listen to my input & was able to create my vision perfectly. Mark is very light handedly so he wont dig too deep while tatting you & his work is really clean. He was also very reasonable with his pricing and I got exactly what I wanted for a great price! All around a great tattoo experience & I would highly recommend Claw & Talon!

My friend Shane and I recently had some work done at Claw and Talon as a walk in, and I couldnt be happier with my service! Mark and Vinny were our artists and not only were they incredibly professional, but wonderful company during the several hours while getting our tattoos done. I would 10/10 return to Claw and Talon and have more art done by these two! Highly recommend! Thanks guys!

Place was pretty clean, easy, and affordable. I came in for something simple. The overall experience was good. Justin was my artist who made sure he could do something that would make me happy. I followed his recommendations and it worked out well.

I love this place! The people there are amazing. I personally go to Vinnie (Binkie). I have had both of my tattoos done by him, and have not been disappointed. In all honesty, everyone there is amazing! I have yet to hear a bad review of this place, no matter who you see. They are even know to put on different music if you are uncomfortable/anxious about the tattoo. Highly recommend! Go here! If you do see Vinnie, tell him the dude with a fist on his fist sent you :)

The atmosphere was intimate and personable. Lindsay is an incredible artist, who took care of 4 family members over 2 days, mastering each one.

Review №18

I had a intense touch up on a beautiful piece, the touch up done by Vinnie. I cant blame him, only myself for not choosing the right artist. But I do wish hed been like, Im not that talented, maybe you should go somewhere else. Instead of just going ahead and doing mediocre work.

Got my tattoo done by Mark Schwartzman, my second done by him at this shop. INCREDIBLE WORK. I was beyond happy with the results, it looks superb. Super friendly shop, easy going and very professional. Mark did an incredible job and I could not recommend this place any more!

Awful experience. I made an appointment with Nate 5 days in advance, and gave a $20 deposit. Not even 24 hours later I had a flight change that conflicted with the appointment, and had to cancel. I came in right away, and still with over 72 hours notice asked for my deposit back. Nate NEVER told me that this deposit was non-refundable, and was extremely rude and patronizing about the situation. He refused to give me my $20 back, claiming this out of the blue policy of non-refundable deposits. It was obvious he had pocketed and spent my money, and was unable to give it back in that moment. Please send $20 to my Venmo account @margaretlewis , I will delete this post.

Best experience getting a tattoo so far! Jay was the artist that did my tattoo and was amazing from start to finish. He drew exactly what I envisioned and the finish product was better than I imagined! The other artists that were tattooing their clients were really friendly and showed genuine interest in making sure I was happy with the experience and the tattoo! If I wasnt moving away from Colorado I would come back here for any and all future tattoos!

Called two days in advance to get a small quote done on my hip. I am not new to getting tattooed and wanted something small done, here in Boulder. Professional, quick and cleanly. I only had a small quote done, but from what I can tell, these guys are all very talented artists. I am very happy with how it turned out and will probably return here again in the future to get more!

I worked with Lindsey while she was still an apprentice and after she finished her apprenticeship. She does excellent work makes everything go by quickly. I preferred to listen to music while she tattoed and she had no issues with this. The shop is clean and has reasonable prices. Would recommend to anyone getting their first tattoo or their 15th.

Ive been tattooed by Morgan three times. Two walk ins, one planned. Shes so easy to work with and will adapt her tattooing style to give you what you want but still add her own beautiful flair. Youll get a wonderful work of art and hang out with a wonderful lady!

Went in one afternoon after calling ahead and seeing If they could take a walk-in. I was there for my first tattoo and was tattooed by Vinny. He treated me with great professionalism and gave me exactly what I wanted while making me comfortable. It was a great first time experience and all the artists at the shop were awesome to be around as well. This shop will not let you down.

Serina did an awesome job! I talked to her over the phone and she drew up exactly what i wanted. I got script done on my legs and the line work and shading is beautiful, shes very talented. The facility was clean and professional but it also has a comfortable feel because its a smaller place. I highly recommend this shop and if i lived in the state i would go back for more!For the people that had a bad experience, I feel like 99% of the time the artist knows better than you do about what will work and what they can do so if you dont like what they recommend thats why consultations are free. Look into an artists work in relation to the type of work you want before you contact a shop.

Review №38

The tattoo artist was not willing to work with me. She said it wasnt possible to color text, and wasnt possible to fit the script on my arm. I asked her to try a unique artistic font of her own and she refused to even try.After I left and went to another place, I was welcomed in a much friendlier manner, immediately helped, and they gladly worked with me, allowing me to add not only color to my desired text, but gradients even! I felt like the artist at claw and talon (who was nice enough herself) was just not willing to even try and adjust my ideas to see if they might work then. I was just shutdown. So I left and now Im going to Blue Rose where they are nice, professional, and obviously more experienced with tattooing and customer service

Review №41

I absolutely love Claw and Talon. I wish I could give it more than five stars, because it has earned a thousand in my book. Vinny was the artist I worked with most recently, but everyone in the shop is fantastic. Sam and Chelsea were so kind, and made conversation even though I wasnt their client this time. They both do very excellent work, but Vinnys personal style was what l was looking for in this particular piece. My latest piece was a cover up of several scars on my forearm. Ive been embarrassed to wear anything but long sleeves for a long time, until Vinny helped me. I came into the shop at noon, and even though he was busy he drew the tattoo and got me in that night, working late to do the outline. While I was being tattooed Vinny let me sit how I was most comfortable (even if it would have been easier to have me sit a certain way). I spent my two hours chatting with Vinny and Sam, who made me feel totally welcome. The piece I have now is not done yet, but it looks incredible. Even with out the color to finish it yet, the art draws the eye away from the horrible scars I have. The crisp lines of my flowers are exactly the look I want. They are beautiful and feminine, and I feel like I can proudly show off my art work in a girly outfit instead of having people ask about the scars. Vinny helped me not only move on, but erase a chapter in my life that is not a part of who I am. He gave me something I can proudly show off to anyone. The shop is clean, with a warm atmosphere. Whichever artist you work with will give you a terrific tattoo, at a good price, with an environment that you dont find often. Thank you so much to the wonderful artists of Claw and Talon, especially Vinny! I will always come here, and recommend it to everyone I know. I cant say it enough, THANK YOU CLAW AND TALON!

Review №45

I came in with a very simple tattoo design. The artist rushed it an it is very obvious in the work. Parts of the tattoo are still raised a year later, or scars. The lines are not straight or even. The center piece wich is smaller an detailed is not even and looks like he just didnt want to spend the time to put a smaller needle on it. Not only that but the other artist in the shop when I was getting my work was extremely rude. I have no doubt they all have talent, but if they arnt interested they are going to rush through your work to get to the next client with more money.

Review №50

I would give it no stars but Im forced to give 1.The stench of rude and pompous, really float thru the air as soon as you walk in. Stopped by to make an appointment and an artist claimed my idea for a few small tattoos were lame and unoriginal. If I wanted and felt the necessity to criticize his inked up arm, I would have, but Im not a dick. Will not have any work done here and will continue to spread the word about this spot.
