Wayward Tattoo

Like Holly, I sought this particular tattoo place out based on recommendations and it being an all female shop. I reached out to Gabe Joyner multiple times. The lack of communication, follow-up and professionalism is completely absent. After waiting for a reply from Gabe for over 6 months, I sent another email to check on my inquiry. Not only was there no apology, but Gabe responded with a passive aggressive reminder to be patient with email replies. Really? Is 6 months not enough time to demonstrate patience? Absolutely unprofessional and simply disrespectful. Madison is full of many extremely qualified tattoo...

My friend and I are very happy with the brightly colored tattoos we got from Gabe - she did a great job and we had fun at the appointment. Gabe is very talented and professional, and we love the vibe from the shop itself, highly recommend!

Great shop that I love! Queer and body positive. Good prices for incredible custom artwork. See Claire for amazing and lifelike portraits of animals and humans too. Snacks and drinks available to patrons sitting for artwork.
