Great service! I would come back again . He was nice and respectful. Even insisted to make the tattoo bigger because it would be better for the shadowing. I usually get small tattoos but he was totally right. Honestly beautiful artist . Great price and it didn't took long. NOW MONTHS after the tattoo, I see how the pink has getting darker, I'm not happy about it. I been told by other tattoo artist that its because of the color used. I'll come back to see if they can fix it

Nelson is so incredibly talented!! I discussed an idea for my very first tattoo with him, and he absolutely ran with it. Because of his expertise, he made suggestions that aligned with my vision, yet artistically made sense and improved the overall design. It turned out better than I could have imagined. I am so proud to carry this gorgeous art with me. Not only is Nelson talented, but he is extremely kind and patient. I cannot recommend him enough!

Nelson is one of the best realism tattoo artist in Boston! A few months ago I gave Nelson a concept and an idea of what I wanted as a half sleeve tattoo. Not only did he take his time and sketched up one of the best pieces I've seen but he was extremely patient and really easy to work with. Highly recommend! Also, would like to add that the staff were extremely friendly and the place was clean.
