Hydra tattoo

I came here when my artist, Tyler Bloomingdale, switched over from another shop and I keep coming back. Tyler is phenomenal and he worked with me to create a huge, affordable, full color piece that was both satisfying to me and functional. Pat, the owner, is amazing and an extremely talented realism artist. I just recently went to Hydra's grand opening event and got a comic book style tattoo from Abram, he is typically a realism artist but the comic book style piece he did on me is to die for! Caroline, the shops apprentice, is a hero in all ways. She keeps the shop clean, crisp, functioning, and inviting while also delivering quality pieces here and there, I've got an appointment with her coming up and I am very excited. She's a gifted artist on paper and I can't wait to have her do work for me as she improves. I haven't personally been inked by the other artists but they are all such lovely, talented people. I've been to a couple different shops in Salt Lake but Hydra takes the cake for me. If you're looking for a place that feels like home after two sessions that will give you breathtaking art, please go check them out!

Toast created a really nice piece for me. We talked about the design for a while, and she went all out putting it together and the results are gorgeous. This is the first tattoo I've had that I can see, its on my forearm so I wanted it to be special, and it is! Besides being an amazing artist, Toast is professional and tuned in to how the client is feeling throughout the process. Hydra is a great space too, highly recommend visiting Toast for a consultation - she's fantastic.

I went to Hydra tattoo specifically to get a tattoo from Caroline. One of my friends got a tattoo from her and I was really impressed with her work for how new she is. The whole experience was amazing. She’s so outgoing and she has such a great energy. She really listened to what we wanted and she had so much passion for her work which was so fun to see. I will definitely be going back to her.

Amazing work here. Alex is my artist and does some good work, very light hand. My sister goes to Pat I recommend all of them. Alex got my outline done in a couple hrs, now just need to go in to finish.
