I came to Medicine Park, which is a bit out of the way for me, to see this tattoo shop. Unfortunately, I was paired with the owners son, Dillon, who seemed like he didnt want to be there. I came prepared with a design I made, digitally, so it would easier for the artist. Right off the bat, the artist made it clear he did not want to do anything that day or have anything to do with anybody. He barely spoke, didnt seem interested, and was extremely unpleasant to be around.My design was a combination of straight, solid lines, about 4mm thick, and an inch of pattern. Its been almost a month now, I gave it a chance to properly heal, and it looks terrible. Not only can you see the areas where he was too lazy to properly fill in, but its very patchy where he decided to fill in areas and areas where he just glossed over. There was an area where to simple lines had to connect, and you can clearly see that he just forgot about filling in an area. Im extremely unhappy with the money I paid and time I wasted here.Dillon doesnt deserve to take on the very significant process of tattooing. He wanted to rush home instead, because his family called to say dinner was ready at home. Towards the end of the session, he had 3 black circles to fill in but just started to clean up and put away his supplies. I had to remind him that the 3 circles had to be filled, to which he responds oh yea, and hastily scribbles in some shading. Now I am out $300+ and have some pretty terrible quality work to remind myself to only go to reputable artists.Shame on you for putting permanent work on people, when you are so uninterested and severely lacking artistic skill and tact.
Went and got pierced here today and I am very satisfied with my experience, they were kind, professional, and timely. The piercings were virtually painless and perfectly positioned. Good prices for quality work. Very clean enviornment and double sanitized the rings I brought. Love the atmosphere and the interior design is beautiful. 10/10 will recommend and will visit again in the future.
Very Satisfied! My sister was born in Lawton, so I thought it appropriate that my tattoo for her be born there also! This was a spontaneous trip for me, walking in was automatically nothing but good vibes. They had great jams goin in a modern VERY CLEAN environment. My artist was very dedicated to my cause. He did a an excellent job from the idea- to the ipad-To STICKIN IT PERMANENT! Very VERY happy with the whole process! Thank you!
I got my industrial peircing done there. The guy that did it was really caring and nice. 10/10 would go again.
They were very helpful on calming me down, and very professional
This place is great. Super clean, and the artists here are friendly with great vision. Came here for my first tattoo on a whim and will definitely go back and recommend it to everyone who asks me.
The studio is beautiful inside . Very high class. They have the perfect music playing and it is very clean. Everyone makes you feel welcome,which is a great thing because you need a good environment when making a life decision like getting a tattoo. Ashley was my artist and she knocked it out of the park ! Truly an awesome experience !
Thank you so much Raul you did a wonderful job
Way too expensive. Pair a dice is half the price and they have a better reputation
A bit pricey, charges by the hour. Their schedule is way overloaded. However the work I have seen from Ashley is amazing. I guess quality cant be rushed.
Ashley did an excellent job on my (first) eyebrow piercing. She was very nice quick, clean and professional. Ill be getting a tattoo from her soon I hope 🙂
I had Jeremy - Awesome guy! The shop is in a absolute wonderful location. The atmosphere is like a vacation away from Lawton itself. The staff are awesome and treat you like family. Depending what you are looking to get done for art they have a diverse staff from different backgrounds that can meet your needs. They are honest about what they can do. Most importantly they follow sanitary requirements. Highly recommend. Went there one time and its officially the only place I would go to from here on out.
Staff was friendly. Very professional and the entire place was neat and clean. Plus the price was fair for the high quality work.
Great job on an idea that has seen its fare share of circulation. Tattoo looks great and the conversation was live. I’ll go back there again.
I’ve been inside, I’ve called, I’ve emailed I have tried everything that I human possibly can to get an appointment and it’s like I’m a ghost! I don’t exists so I’ll take my money elsewhere
My tattoo artist, Matt, had pretty much free reign to put together a tattoo with 3 limited details. The end result was gorgeous. And also big. Despite how large it ended up being the tattoo took 2 1/2 hours or so, and cost me $300. Which I personally think is a great deal. I was extremely satisfied with my tattoo, and intend on going to do the rest of my tattoos here.
From the decor to the artist. This establishment is grade A! Mike did my Egyptian piece on my thigh about a month ago and captured everything i wanted. Very reasonable Pricing for the experience you receive. Just remember cheap tattoos aren’t good and good tattoos aren’t cheap! You get what you pay for. Everything in the studio is high tech and updated. Everything I wanted, even tiny little details mike was able to produce and give me what I wanted and still put his artistic twist on it. His appointments are a little far out there but he’s worth the wait! After I healed up I noticed there were a few spots that I was not too happy with and mike got me an immediate appointment even with his completely booked schedule and touched up the areas today. THATS CUSTOMER SERVICE! Would highly recommend Mike and Elite ink!
Mike Evans is the best! Quite happy with the sleeve he did for me. Just gave him some ideas and he put an artistic spin on what I wanted. Also the studio is decorated so chic! Very comfy and beautiful place to get tattooed
I love elite! The atmosphere is always friendly and comedic. Got my first tattoo here by Jeremy, and Ive been getting piercings from Ashely there for years. Now James Francis is starting a half peony sleeve for me and Im absolutely in love with it! He was super gentle and I cant wait to see the end result. I highly recommend this tattoo studio!
First tattoo! Jeremy was so gentle and sweet. Everything was very clean and professional. Have had a piercing done by Ashley which was also a great experience. Everyone at the shop was very nice and gave lots of great information. Wasnt intimidated and felt very relaxed through the entire visit.
Got my first tattoo at Elite. Ashley Morrison tattooed me and was super willing to work with what I wanted without hesitation. From font changes, to size and placement, she was awesome. Clean lines, and super friendly.If I lived here I would absolutely be back. 10/10 would recommend.
If youre looking to get any piercings, Ashley will take good care of you. I got my piercings here and she was very professional. The while process was very quick and after some paper work you are good to go. Any questions you have she will answer them and the rest of the employees there are also nice and talented. The shop has nice decorations and its kept clean at all times.
Very pleased with the professionalism and courtesy overall of the shop. I just got a very heartfelt memorial tattoo dedicated to my brother and he really made it come to life even more than I could imagine. Thanks to Mike Evans for being upfront and honest with my design and the accommodations but also making my tattoo and experience the way I wanted it to go. I cant wait to come back and finish my sleeve! Once again thanks to Mike Evans and Elite for the great hospitality and Ill see you guys again soon.
I am VERY happy with my tattoo. Ashley is a super artist. There were 5 of us getting a tat as a tribute to our father. We showed her a photo and then each of us changed it up in some small way. She listened to us and then gave each of us our own unique tat! The shop was very clean, it took a very reasonable amount of time and the atmosphere was comfortably friendly. I wouldnt go anywhere else to get a tattoo.Thank you Ashley, I love it!
Top notch modern tattoo studio with exceptional people. Ashley Morrison did my work, and is continuing to do more. She is a phenomenal artist and a great master of her craft. Highly recommend you look her up if you want some ink done.
Elite skin art is by far the best tattoo shop to go to in Lawton, OK. I was able to complete my entire chest by Jeremy in six weeks. Jeremy covered up an old tattoo flawlessly and did an outstanding job on the entire piece. After the tattoo was completely healed I went back for small touch ups and he took care of me right on the spot. Elite skin art recently moved to a new shop on Cache road and it is fantastic!! The location, vibe, and overall feeling of the new shop is great. As soon as I walked in to schedule my first session, I was greeted like part of the family and immeidiatly attended to. I highly recommend this tattoo shop. The shop plays great music, extremely clean, and the ambiance is great.
The artist I went to, his name is Jeremy. Really great artwork. I got my first tattoo there and he walked me through the whole thing. I didn’t have anyone there so he kept talking to me and keeping my mind of the pain. Really great work as well ! I love my tattoo! It’s exactly how I wanted it. I also got one of my piercings there with Ashley. Everything was Very sanitary. Everyone else there is great. They were really nice. Highly recommend 😊
Overall I enjoyed the atmosphere of elite. They are professional and friendly and have very reasonable prices. Their artist are extremely talented and do really great work. Thanks guys
Told Mike what I had in mind, but never could have imagined the end results. He did my lower leg/sock, pirate theme, and it is way better than what I had pictured in my head. His new shop looks like something you would see on television. Cleanest tattoo place Ive ever stepped foot in and my 5-6hr session flew by. You can get a tattoo anywhere, but if you want some art... GO TO ELITE!!!
The studio is super clean and the staff is amazing. My BFF and I both got a tattoo and a piercing. We were very pleased with both services.
Started off at their previous location with a cover up and have gone back four times since. My last session was with Mike and I am very pleased with the result. I have visited the new location and it looks incredible. Can’t wait to get my next one.
Very professional tattoo shop. James did an amazing job not only on my first tattoo but making sure I was comfortable. Overall I had a really good experience and would definitely recommend this place! Very clean and neat place!
Absolutely beautiful upscale shop. We were hoping for a walk in appointment and hit the jackpot with Mike! As a military family its hard to leave our trusted artist but we have definitely found an artist we will stick with for years to come!
My first tattoo done by Ashley was an awesome experience. The facility is absolutely gorgeous, everyone was so nice and welcoming. I highly recommend whether youre a tattoo virgin or just looking to add another. Give Elite a visit.
They tattooed my sisters and me, and they were great! Our artists were so nice, and very patient with us as we went back & forth about where we wanted what.lol My tattoo healed perfectly and looks great! Also, their music the day we went was on point. A nice 80s pop rock situation.
Mike Evans is an amazing tattoo artist. He did my sleeve and he did great. The atmosphere was very modern. The new tattoo shop they just went to is very professional and Victorian. Everybody talked to me and was very nice. He took his time and was very professional.
Great experience awesome environment and very talented / friendly artists. Got all my work done here and very happy with how everything turned out. Highly recommended.
Got my first tattoo by Ashley. She did a great job! The shop was very clean and everyone I encountered was nice. Ill definitely be going back here again. Thanks Ashley!
This is THE studio to go to there isnt a place comparable in Oklahoma... clean, awesome enviroment, a real luxury/VIP experience...top of the line customer service. Mike Evans has an eye for detail like no other. !
Amazing experience from beginning to end! Very clean and absolutely professional! James Francis did a piece for me and I could not be happier! Will only come here to him from now on for any of my needs! Thank you very much Elite Skin Art!!!! Much love!!!
Told James what i wanted, told him to put his own twist on it, and the result was amazing. Worth every penny and then some. They even had old school 90s rap playing the ENTIRE time. Very chill place and the artists know what they are doing...
Aside from ranting about the GORGEOUS shop, the entire staff are welcoming, professional, and amazing. Mike sat and discussed my idea for finishing my sleeve and used an iPad to photoshop our ideas onto my arm so I could actually see what the product would be. The customer service was phenomenal. When we sat down to begin, Mike worked fast with very clean lines. I have a good chunk of my body tattooed and the one I got today at Elite, is hands down, my best and favorite. I love my tattoo and cant wait for the next session!
I don’t usually write these but For a place like this i will, Terrible customer service basically they’ll get to you when they get to you. They have no sense of urgency for the customers you have to work around their time even though you are the client, and if they mess up on a timeline for your appointment It’s somehow your fault. The Artist by the name of Ashley is especially terrible, and has poor Communication skills with her clients. Furthermore she is also childish and unprofessional in front of customers, and it feels like they just want the money and don’t really care how the whole Customer experience was. i wouldn’t recommend anyone to go to this shop.
James does great work! He made a simple thing turn into an awesome reality. I would recommend Elite to anyone and everyone. Friendly environment as well.
Excellent tattoo studio. Over 20 tattoos so far and this was one of the best experiences Ive had to date. Great artists, clean studio, and a professional, welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere.
First time getting a tattoo, I felt super welcomed, all the artists were very polite and Ashley did an awesome job so I booked again with her.
I had a great experience here. Matthew Shreve did an amazing job on my tattoo. I contacted ESA through the website and received a response in less then 24 hrs. Scheduling and overall communication with the artist was seamless and I would recommend both the Shop and Matthew Shreve to anyone.
Got my nose pierced here!!! I’m so happy with my results . The atmosphere and decor in here is beyond beautiful!
They guys were super friendly.... The atmosphere was nice and clean. Was my first time in the shop and i was super pleased with my experience!!
Ashley did two pieces on me and one on my wife. Amazing work!! Couldnt have asked for a better tattoo artist. Very professional and laid back. If your looking for a tattoo, Elite Skin Art is the place to go.
It was simple and easy. Talked me through it all and it didnt take too long at all. Very professional and clean and Ill be coming back for any other ideas I may have. Great service!
They staff here are crazy unprofessional. For a business that deals a lot with people you’d think they’d have some real customer service skills. If you do something wrong don’t punish me for it. That’s just not how it works. Hopefully this issue gets addressed soon. Till then beware of this place
It was amazing!! I had James and he was very good!! Great 1st experience definitely gonna go back again soon! Very clean and very nice people too!
I scheduled an appointment for a tattoo and showed up about 15 minutes early. When I got there the tattoo artist said oh Im sorry, I didnt realize you were on a time constraint, I scheduled someone else at the exact same time as you. then he offered me another appointment time in 2 weeks. I took my business elsewhere and very happy I did.
New shop is Amazing!Environment and people are awesome. customer service is great!Mike started my sleeve, artistic vision and skill is amazing!
I had Mike do my tattoo, he did a great job, only down side is the very long waiting list to see him, Im not sure if the other artists take that long
Easy going environment. Walked in and got it done the same day, gave me an honest opinion and nailed it! Very happy
The staff at this place is incredibly rude, and the main tattoo artist guy so egotistical and so far up his own but its so annoying. The staff is also flakey and it takes a million years to get any service from them. Not to mention how over priced this place is. Do not go here, and do not give these people your business.
Mike Evans and his staff at Elite are exceptional! You will never be disappointed with the work they produce!!! So happy to have work from the best shop in Lawton, OK!
Love the shop, love Ashley! This shop has my heart forever! They do wonderful cover-up too!
The staff is so rude and very unprofessional.. the prices are way too high.. They dont value customers
Its my 7th tat and this is by far thee best. Gorgeous tattoo shop! The entire experience was amazing!
Nicest shop in Lawton! Mike Evans did my tattoo and it came out great, Ill definitely be returning soon for more work.
Had my 2nd tattoo done by Ashley tonight. I love it. Elite Skin Art is definitely the place to go. I plan to get a couple more tattoos done and you know where!!!
This place is awsome. The atmosphere is clean, friendly and professional. Their not judgmental and understand what you want.
Ashley is amazing and she was so sweet. We felt very welcome. We loved the easy going atmosphere.
I had my tattoo done by mike and I enjoyed the experience. Im definitely getting all my tattoos done through them and I would recommend it to everyone.
DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT go to this place . If you do stay away from Ashely . She is extremely unorganized and rude . She took my deposit and claimed she never received it . I was extremely polite towards her and still she behaved like a demon . She is very unprofessional and lacks decent customer service . What’s worse is that management allows this! Save yourself the trouble and stay away from this scam
If you need anything- tattoo and piercing- this place is by far the best. They pay attention to what you want and are by far the best in town!
Horrible experience. Do not recommend. Ashley has the worst customer service.
Went in knowing what I wanted and Ashley had an appontment but they never came in so she took me right then. Shes amazing and I scheduled my next tattoo sleeve with her, also its really hard to find a good watercolor tattoo artist that will sit down and work up and custom design. And shes super friendly and easy to talk to through the whole tattoo. Thanks I cant wait till july!!
Well, we sat there and sat there, but when they figured out there was a problem they put our daughter noise ring in for free !! Great job
Amazing service and great vibes. Perfect place to get your first tattoo!
These guys do excellent work and the shop is state of the art. Highly recommend!!! A++++
Love this place, i just got my first tattoo and love it...artist is so nice
Great detailed work from knowledgeable artist. Definitely recommend for anyone in the Lawton area who is looking for a tattoo artist. Ask for James Francis at Elite Skin Art.
I really love the environment they have there they were really nice and easy to work with my fiancé and me love our tattoos and highly recommend them for all of our work from now on James did a great job
Awesome service and great artists, I went to Jeremy and his work was amazing would recommend to anyone looking for a great tattoo.
This was the most racist place I have been too in lawton. BLACK PEOPLE keep your share of our 1.2 trillion out of this shop. I went there yesterday with a friend no one moved or ever said a word and the one customer that started speaking in mid sentence stop talking and giving eye contact. I guess she realized she was no longer at work and was not required to speak and yes she was in her army uniform. I will make it my business to tell this story everywhere I mean everywhere I go. My rating is ------------------.-------------- negative point negative. Pleases pay attention all the reviews are given by white people so that 4.8 rating is a white only rating people.
Ashely is the best at elite get all my work done by her!! Highly recommend this tattoo studio to everyone that asks about my work!!
This shop is very clean and inviting, the people who work here are also extremely friendly. Forget going to the mall for a piercing, Id never go anywhere but here.
In love with my tattoo I will definitely be recommending friends here and I will be back to get more ink
Got my 8th tattoo here! Great experience! Jeremy was super nice and professional!
Great customer service, artist named Jeremy Was very friendly an even had great conversation, his work is fantastic an unique an we will be back!!
Amazing shop with amazing artists! Love every tattoo Ive had done here!
One the coolest atmospheres and the cleanest and most professional shops Ive ever been too
Great customer service and bed side manner very clean and comfortable definitely coming back
Best tattoo shop in town. I would recommend this shop to anyone wanting a tattoo.
Mike Evans (the owner) is a major princess. Seriously, the dude is WAY too about himself, and its costing him business. Keep in mind I have over 100 hours of ink on me, so Im familiar enough with the process and how fickle some artists can be and what an excellent artist normally charges. With that said, he took it to a whole new level. I mean he seemed cool enough at first, despite his ravings of how spectacular he is and how overpriced his sessions are so he can live in his awesome house overlooking the mountains. But I was new to the area and every other tattoo studio in Lawton seemed pretty bad (I looked at all of them too).So I threw my overpriced $100 dollar deposit down for an overpriced $500 half-day session. Came in a week or so prior because I had some updates on the concept...Silly me, Princess only allows that between 12 and 1. So I came in the next day. He got kind of weird and thoroughly explained how doesnt draft up the tattoo designs until the week before the session so its fresh in his mind and because hes sooo busy. Fair enough, but two days prior to having the ink on my skin for the rest of my life he still had nothing drawn up!!! Then had the nerve to get flaky and lippy with me! Again talking about how busy he is. Mike, I hope youre reading this: NO ONE CARES HOW BUSY YOU ARE! Especially if its your excuse for neglecting future clients! So before I could cancel with him he beat me to the punch, saying that after our conversation he didnt feel he was the artist for me Fine by me! Apparently wanting to see a tattoo design from a new artist and be able to analyze it for more than 20 minutes prior to the session starting is an issue with this primadonna. Then he didnt even have the brass to give me my deposit back himself and made the beautiful tattoo artist lady who works for him do it.DONT GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR BUSINESS! For starters, hes not even that good for the prices he charges. Sure, hes probably the best in Lawton, but thats not really saying much. If you want quality ink then save yourself the money and hassle of dealing with a self-absorbed, delusional, and unprofessional narcissist by driving to OKC. Theres plenty of BETTER and less expensive artists there, and the $5 in gas and hour of driving itll cost you is well worth it in the end.Also, after telling several other tattooed friends of mine about all this they said they had a similar experience or have heard several other people complain about the same thing. Mike is lucky hes working in Lawton, because in any other decent/large city hed be a small fish in a big pond, and his horrible mindset would put him out of business...quickly.
Amazing tattoo shop and over all experience. Definitely recommend this shop.
I got a tattoo done my Jeremy. He did an amazing job
Very nice shop and they are very comforting! Jeremy did my tattoo and did good work
Go see Jeremy at elite tattoo he does amazing work
Absolutely recommend. Friendly service, clean environment, and good pricing. Ask for James!
Would give 0 if I could just for Ashley. Don’t go here
