I got one of mine at a place on South Broadway just a little North of Hampden on the West side of the road in a house turned into a business. I can't remember the name of it but they sucked. The tattoo was okay but they over charged and he acted like he was some kind of god instead of a tattoo artist. It was years ago but I can still remember wanting to kick his punk ass.
Primitive Soul Tattoo, I've seen some real nice work come outta there.

Ask for Nik, he's my nephew formerly an apprentice of ours many decades ago. he was working at Phantom 8 on south broadway in englewood then got together with some other artist from other well known studio's to open his own place this year. if you get him or have to leave a message tell him Uncle Jim from up north told to call.
Whether it be Nik or someone else, i suggest you look at their portfolio and ask questions. A good artist is only part of the equation. You must feel comfortable with them and be able to click. A tattoo is permanent and the commitment last a life time. Also see how current their training is if any regarding blood-bourne pathogens and cross contamination. Do they do single use needle and tube (not a necessity) providing their autoclave is working correctly, but single use is or has become the norm. Are their work areas clean, double glove during the work. do they remove their gloves if there's a phone call for them etc......
I'll suggest that Jim knows his tattoo stuff.
Should that not work out for you, the only other person I would trust to tattoo me (besides me) is Riley at Art With Heart in Aurora; his work is amazing.
I second that, jim knows ink and arsQuote:

And a second for Nik at stronghold.
also Jeff Kopp is amazing, used to own Th'ink Tank, not sure where he is now.
Nick at Jack of Diamonds in arvada is damn good too.
Best advice, get to know your artist, find one you that you like not only their work but also who they are. Makes a huge difference.
I think (key word) Jeff went to work for / with Nik If you also check out Phantom 8 talk toQuote:
