Provided by YP.comTattoo Charlie’s is such an amazing place. All of the artist will explain everything about your tattoo from positioning, to the care after you get the tattoo. Tattoo Charlie’s cares so much about their customers where other shops don’t. They also offer vegan tattoos where as most shops don’t. So if you’re thinking about getting a tattoo go to Tattoo Charlie’s!

Provided by YP.comI went to PROPHECY INK and they SCREWED UP my tattoo. They said they would fix it. Every time I called to get it fixed. They were always to busy to get me in. I kept calling and they threatened to call police for harrassment. They never fixed it .My Daughter had one done at TATTOO CHARLIES that was PERFECT!!

Provided by YP.comTattoo Charlie's is the best place to go for your tattoo. I won't go anywhere else. The artists are perfectionists. The studio is fabulous. I wanted a "special" tattoo that was in my mind. I described it and the artist did it even more amazing than I could have imagined it. I have a total of 6 tattoos. If you want a quality tattoo done by people who listen and are very talented in a clean environment that follows the law, then what are you waiting for? Go to Tattoo Charlies! I know I will again!

Provided by YPmobileI don't even know how many tattoos I have anymore, but 95% of mine came from there. They have always given me be best, friendliest service. Their artists are phenomenal! Eric is the artist I normally use, but they're all excellent artists!! I have gone there for my piercings as well. Aniela is very sweet and patient when giving a piercing. Whether you are getting a tattoo or piercing, you can ALWAYS trust it will be clean and sanitary. You will always be proud of how awesome your tattoo looks even after many years. I will always go there, and I would always recommend Tattoo Charlie's if you want a professional tattoo.

Provided by YPmobileI have 3 tattoos, all of which came from Tattoo Charlies. You can tell how clean it is as soon as you walk in the door. I love that they have different artists that have their own unique style and specialty, because of this they can cater to any of your tattoo needs. All of my tattoos are different in style but all have the same great quality you need in body art. I am a lifetime Tattoo Charlies supporter!

Provided by YP.comI served as a WM, 2531, from 1986-1990. I lost some good friends while I was in, and many more later in life. I have contemplated a tattoo for years, but I never did it. Because of my profession, only an intimate tattoo is accepted. A few have white ink tattoos, and I liked the idea.
I went to the Okolona location on Preston Highway. The man in the far left stall was very vocal, standing up to announce to not only myself, but also the 3 other customers in the store. He explained, “We do not do white ink. We do not believe in an intimate tattoo. We want your tattoo to stand out and say Tattoo Charlies.” Apparently my business is not welcome there.
When I say Semper Fidelis, it is to my fellow service women and men and those who stand behind them. Thank you Tattoo Charlies for explaining to me that you do not believe in an intimate tattoo. My time in service of my country was very intimate as is my continued relationships with those who have or continue to serve.

Provided by YP.comStopped in a few days ago and wanted to go over my tattoo idea. The gentleman I spoke with seemed to have no desire to talk about it or even discuss how he would be doing it. He did nothing at all to make me remotely confident in his ability. The one thing he did keep asking was "when do you want to do this...we can do it right now". It was my first time in the Okolona shop and will be my last. This certainly did not live up to the experiences I had heard about. Tattoo Charlies PRP however is a totally different story. Joshua took time to look at the idea and tweek it to perfection. Great Work and much more professional.

Provided by YPmobileMy new tattoo has a very special meaning to me. I had been planning my tattoo for almost a year,a lot of thinking went into it. It had to be perfect and get my message across to my parent's. I decided on what I wanted but couldn't find the right person to do it. After asking around, a friend suggested Joel. Joel had done a lot of work for him and his work was great. When I showed Joel what I wanted he wasn't sure it could be done the way I wanted due to the size and amount of words I wanted, he thought words would run into each other. He took a lot of time and thinking and worked it out exactly the way I wanted it to be. I LOVE IT. My tattoo has so much meaning to me and to have someone understand and create that for me was an awesome experience. Plan to get 2 more and will only let Joel do them. THANK YOU JOEL I LOVE IT.
