About Frontier Tattoo Company
I have been to this shop multiple times and I've never been disappointed. I saw Andy for a memorial tattoo of my yellow Lab Jakes paw print and absolutely love it. Then had Andy do another tattoo for the birth of my first grandbaby. I've brought all three of my children (two of them now adults) in for various piercings with Kristi and she is amazing at what she does. And I've had my most recent memorial tattoo for my mother when she passed away done by Thor and I absolutely love it. Barbara Jean has always been super pleasant both inside and outside of the shop. Unless I move out of Arizona these guys are always going to be my go to place for my art.
Love this shop, atmosphere is amazing. Chris did my tattoo and he was very professional and did an amazing job. Very happy with his work. I will definitely be coming back!
I drove over an hour from Glendale to get my nipples pierced by apprentice Belle, and it was such an amazing experience. Her and her mentor, Kristie (i hope i spelled that right) were so sweet and funny and i felt so comfortable. The piercing process itself was quick and it didn't hurt much for me at all. They look so nice and i'm so happy with how they came out. The trip was definitely worth it!! 💜💜💜
Frontier is top notch. I live close by and stalked their page for months before choosing to go to them for piercings and tattoos. This is a long review, but I felt anything shorter wouldn't do them justice. Piercing Experience: I absolutely love Megan. She was friendly, knowledgeable, helped my nerves and let me flip flop on getting my helix done after my nose. Kristie just did a jewelry change for me 7/13 and she is straight up amazing. She was hilarious. She picked my nose for me. Talk about top notch customer service. I hated the jewelry they originally put in my nose because it looks like I had a booger and I was constantly pushing the end of the jewelry back in my nose. I was about 8 weeks healed, but she checked it out to make sure it was safe to change it out. Kristie changed it to a flat back and I couldn't be more happy. The only small complaint I have is the jewelry. I want gold not silver. I would 10/10 recommend getting pierced here though. Tattoo Experience: I started my sleeve on 6/1 with Twitch. Twitch's attention to detail, creativity, chill demeanor and flexibility made him so easy and a joy to work with. He has serious patience as he sat with me for 4 Saturdays in a row. The original idea of my sleeve and what it turned out to be were entirely different. It turned out better than I could've imagined. He chose several of the pieces such as the mushroom, font, dragon fly etc. They're gorgeous and my favorite parts of the sleeve. I wanted zero insects and ended up with 5. Twitch is also very light handed which I appreciated. There were times I couldn't even feel him tattooing me. It was easy to sit still 2-4 hours. I have to shoutout to Thor. Twitch asked him to help on creating the piece about my dog. He looked at my dogs IG and found the picture to create the stencil. He captured my dog in the best way. The original plan was to get the date - but I got my dogs face which was 1000% better than I could've imagined. Barbara Jean was great. She would put the derm on me usually after the tattoo sessions and it was done well. I healed so easy! She also gave me good recommendation on the healing process and lotions. I have very sensitive skin. And last but certainly not least - Angela! She was always so welcoming when I arrived. She jumped right in to help find pieces and ideas of my sleeve. She has such a sweet demeanor and is absolutely hilarious. Overall, the vibe and product of Frontier is unmatched. It was always a great time to come in and get tattooed or piercings here. While I don't intend to reside in Arizona for much longer, I will recommend Frontier to anyone I know here and come back for new pieces when I visit.
If I could put zero stars I came in a few months back and inquired about a tattoo I wanted to get but no artists were available at the time so the person at the counter / The Owner (Barbara Jean) offered to examine my idea midway through explaining she shushed me and told me no. that it would not work for a tattoo and I asked why. it wasn't good and and my design /my idea was uncreative and lacked color and a few more demeaning comments as I agreed with before I left an artist had finished and asked if I had been helped yet and I replied I was interested in getting this piece then showed the artist my idea and they seemed very excited and said that it would be a cool/nice tattoo and that they would willingly do my art but unfortunately due to the lack of interest and unfortunate experience with the woman at the counter I couldn't spend my money at this establishment
