The process of getting a tattoo at Kvitka was exceptional from beginning to end. Tatti was super communicative before we met, she took the photographs I had for inspiration and did her own research. When I arrived she asked me great questions about what I wanted, where, and how big, and she listened carefully to all my answers. The artwork she created free hand is so beautiful, and the final tattoo is amazing. I love it. I could not recommend this studio more highly.

Everything was fantastic. You were all so sweet and supportive, especially for someone who had never had a tattoo before. I love my new tattoo. It looks amazing.

This was honestly the best experience I could have had for my 1st (and 2nd) tattoo. Victoria was phenomenal. She was not only patient and understanding, but her work is so beautiful. I cannot wait to come back for another tattoo.

Viktoria (Vika) was so talented, thoughtful, gentle - a real joy to work with. The space is quiet and clean, and she was careful to talk through every part of the experience, giving me lots of time to think through ideas and make sure I wound up with a tattoo that was meaningful and matched my vision.

A very pleasant and comfortable person, the studio feels very cozy. The tattoos are done very professionally — the lines are clean and thin. The best tattoo artist I’ve ever been to. Vika is amazing❤️❤️❤️❤️

I knew Vicky was amazing with fine line tattoos. Usually floral pieces. My idea was a video game pixel tattoo. Trust. Check out her instagram page y’all. OMG I can hear this image! We were vibing to Gorgon City and Duke Dumont the whole session. I skipped going to NorthCoast this year for Vicky and I would do it again!

Honestly was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had being tattooed. Kvitka was so nice and easy to talk to and I felt super comfortable around her and in her space. She went through with me how exactly I wanted my tatt to look down to the last detail and she was always super accommodating. I also really loved the atmosphere of the place the space felt very cozy and it gave off good vibes great for when u are getting tatted for hrs. She made sure I was very comfortable though and in a good position when she tattooed me and she knocked it out of the park. I really love the tattoo so much!:)

Tatti was amazing, patient and thoughtful throughout the entire process. She made sure I was completely happy with both the design and placement. My tattoo was a bit challenging since I wanted to cover up an older tattoo from nine years ago, but she did an incredible job transforming it into something beautiful. It was such a pleasure watching her work, she’s truly a talented artist. Thank you so much, Tatti! I’ll definitely be back when I’m ready for my next piece.
