Travis has done all 3 of my tattoos and they all turned out amazing !! The overall atmosphere of the shop just gives off great vibes. You guys should stop by and get some ink done, if you do make sure to ask for Travis ! Great guy that does amazing work!

This is a great shop in downtown Greensboro. The shop is very clean and has a great interior decor which compliments the historic buildings exterior. The artist that I utilize is Jason. He is an outstanding artist, very detail oriented and a real pro. I entrusted Jason to tattoo both forearms in tribute to my 20 year military career. Tried and True tattoos via appointment only. The shop also requires a small deposit (varies by artist) which is non-refundable and may be considered void if you flake on your scheduled appointment without a 48 hour notice prior to any appointment change.

Jason has done all of my tattoos except for 2. I am highly pleased with his quality of work and attention to detail. He keeps his shop exceptionally clean and sterile, ensuring proper safe practices before, during, and after tattooing. I have recommended several people to his shop; a couple of which I know received his talent and are satisfied with the product. Highly recommend Tried and True.

Got a tattoo from Kayla, and the whole experience was great. She was really responsive and respectful of what I wanted and did some incredibly-detailed work for me. Clean, quiet shop with chill folks who do good work. Couldnt have asked for a better tattoo experience.

When I met Jason he was very nice and was super positive about everything and all of my ideas. He went to infinity and beyond (he did my Buzz Light Year tat!! Lol!) and I couldnt be happier! Thank you Jason. And yes, you do have a nice beard! Lolol!

Ive been getting tattooed by Jason since I was 18. Hands down one of the best artists working right now. Hes tattooed my numerous times and Im blown away with the results each time. All my pieces look brand new even years later without any touch ups. You can come here in confidence that youll get top notch work.

All of the staff at Tried and True are amazing! My artist Kayla did an amazing job with my tattoos (I have gotten 3 from her) and I would highly recommend her to anyone that asked! The three of the tattoos she did on me were all different styles but she did an equally excellent job on each. She was also extremely careful and clean when doing the tattoos. I watched her sanitize her whole station before we began. I will be recommending Tried and True and Kayla to anyone who wants a Tattoo.

Amazing place! Staff is very professional, very clean, and super helpful. I got a decent sized arm piece done, detail was more incredible than I expected. They’re very thorough with care instructions, and I followed those and mine healed wonderfully. I’ll be coming back here for all of my future tattoos!

I got my first tattoo by Jason about 10 years ago. It has aged very well and Ive never needed to take him up on the offer for free touch ups since then. His apprentice at the time misjudged the amount of time the piece would take (which impacted the cost of the piece) but he told me not to worry about the rest, he just wanted to finish it. I felt bad, but he was super understanding and preferred that I leave with a solid piece of work instead of having to come back to finish it. I think that says a lot about how he runs his business and how he cares for his clients and reputation.Since then, I have always recommended him to people. Hes a phenomenal artist and worth every penny.

Sarah did a great job with a cover-up I needed. She was friendly, fun, and professional. I would definitely recommend!! Bonus, they were able to schedule me for the same day as my consultation.

I got a fantastic tattoo from here. Madison Loftis was my artist. The shop is clean and professional. It has unique architecture, as it is in an old bank building. Making an appointment was a breeze and the receptionist was friendly and helpful. The deposit was $50, which is reasonable and typically what most shops charge in the triad area. This experience was an excellent reminder that you get what you pay for. My tattoo turned out beautiful and she worked it into the rest of my sleeve flawlessly. I dont think anyone could have done a better job. There was another artist in the shop working on someone elses tattoo while I was there. Unfortunately I dont remember his name but the tattoo he produced turned out beautiful.

I anticipated being able to give Tried and True 5 stars, and Im so disappointed that I cant. I can at least give a couple because they were clean, the artist that was there and the front cashier were extremely nice and accommodating given the fact that I was a walk-in. I came from out of town and brought the design from my artist. This is the second tattoo Ive gotten in the Greensboro/High Point area. The only artist there at the time had free time and my tattoo was going to be small, she took me on the spot. However, Almost a week later, my tattoo has peeled, and it doesnt look like it should, and Ive made sure to be extra careful over this past week, given the fact that its on my wrist. The bottom part of my semicolon isnt filled in, and you cant tell most of the details. Tattoos always look better after theyve healed so I was waiting on that, but looking at the pictures I took the day of and the day after - those look better than the final peeled product. When I have it, Ill definitely be spending the money to get it redone somewhere in the area where I live.

Tattoos are supposed to peel. Sometimes tattoos, especially near joints like the wrist, elbow, knee, armpit,...where the skin has the most elasticity, will require a touch up. That is why we offer a free touch up within 6 months. Thank you for the nonsense review you left.

Worst place Ive EVER been. I have 7 other tattoos and none of them have ever gotten infected and the WHOLE tattoo turn into a thick scab. I used aquatat the first two days and it bubbled up and started pussing ink. I stopped putting stuff on it and it scabbed up. Now its cracking up. (Pics below) I went by today to ask for a refund and I was told what I do to it, they arent responsible. I will never go back or recommend this shop. Very upset.

Review №52

This tattoo was one of the most important ones because I made a decision to quit smoking and it was a promise that I wanted to get tattooed. The first thing was while the artist was preparing a sketch and preparing everything which took about an hour, the girl at the front desk was yelling on the phone the whole time I was sitting there about someone loosing her dog to the point where the artist came from the back and asked her to quiet down because you were able to hear her from such distance. I sat there uncomfortably during that hour. Every tattoo I got, the artist would take a new needle out of its package in front of me, but this artist had the needle in already, after the artist made the first two lines she switched to a new needle, and as you can see in the photo those were the two lines that are swollen and puss was coming out. After I got the tattoos wich costed $100 I tipped her $20, I was happy with it. After about half a week the pain in my arm kept increasing, and one day I came out of the shower and I noticed how the scab from the tattoo came off I noticed in the first two lines she inked that it looked like a cannal, she cut right through the middle of it as if someone took a knife and gave me two cuts right over it, then the next day puss was coming out and it kept staying inflamed and then I started to notice discoloration, that tattoo artist during her work told me she only had one year of experience which put me on ease. I wouldnt recommend anyone to go here, I got one done down the street by Golden Spiral Studios and they had done the best job out of all of my tattoos since each one of mine I like to get at a different shop. They were professional and did a great job. Here are some of the photos

Patrick is awesome, definitely one of the most proficient piercers in the Triad. He is very knowledgeable and involved with the Association of Professional Piercers so he can always stay ahead of the game by providing insight into the latest techniques, jewelery offerings, and related body mod innovations. I couldnt have asked for a better experience. I plan on doing all of my future business with Tried and True! The staff is great, they make you feel welcome and go out of their way to assist you which is a lot more than I can say about their competitors. I havent been tattooed here yet(havent made up my mind on what to get done yet) but I plan to soon by Madison. One last thing regarding Patrick, the type of facial piercing I wanted everyone else I called around and visited in person about had either no experience doing it or came up with outlandish theories to try and dissuade me from getting it done but that didnt happen here, Patrick came across very confident and he ultimately really helped restore my faith in being able to get the type of rare piercing that Ive had my heart set on for the longest. Thank you sooooooooooo much Tried & True!!!! The proof is certainly in the pudding (i.e. shop name) you guys are the Triads hidden gem when it comes to piercing and tattoos!

So first off the shop is very clean and sterille. The staff is nice and they greet you when you walk in the shop. On 9/3/16 i went to this shop to get a nose piercing. The piercer was nice and cool and the whole process was pretty quick. My only and major complaint would have to be that the piercer put a ring to small in my nose so now my nose ring is sinking down in my hole and i have to go to a different shop in my home town to get the ring switched out ASAP.....a small ring in a nose piercing could cause the piercing not to heal properly.....i feel like she should have known this being a piercer.....i started to notice that the ring was sinking on sunday morning 9/4/16.....i did alot of research and based upon my research it tells that a small ring should be put in when you first get your piercing bc of the swelling and if the ring is too small it can sink once the swelling kicks in. I honestly feel cheated out of my nose piercing experience.....I had been wanting to get my nose pierced for a while so me coming to greensboro on labor wknd with some friends and choosing this shop to get my nose piercing done at i thought would be a great experience.....now im back home (charlotte, nc) and have to take out the time out of my day to get the issue corrected....now thats more time and more money that i wouldnt have to spend if it was done correctly the first time. I dnt recommend this place for a piercing....enter at ur own risk!

One of Greensboros newest shops. Do not let that worry you though. This is not a fly by night operation. It is owned and operated by Jason Spainhour, one of Greensboros longest running tattoo artists. Jason has brought together one hell of a team that includes Maddie and DrewI cannot reconmend this shop enough, when you walk in you just get a feeling that original art is greated here. From the fact that they are located in an old bank building (with a ton of cool old details) to the art you can buy hanging on the walls. You know these guys and gals know their stuff.All the artists here are more than willing to take your ideas and turn them into a stunning piece of permanent art on your body.Stop by and tell them Kibby sent you.
