Reviews of Golden Stag Tattoo and Gallery (Tattoo Shop)

Katie Kropp

I could not be more pleased with Golden Stag Tattoo! 2 of my friends and I had a few hours blocked off with Colby. We each shared our different ideas with him, he quickly drew up the designs and didn't hesitate when we asked for minor tweaks to it. Very professional establishment, as well as clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!!

Bayman has done 3 of my tattoos and I love every single one! He is extremely professional and does great work!!

Steve has been doing all of my tattoo work for years along with my wife and several of our friends. He is a true artist and professional, he takes whatever vision we have in mind and translate it to amazing pieces of art. Couldn't recommend him any higher!

This shop is absolutely fantastic! It was clean, inviting, and the staff was amazing! They treat you like an individual and not just a number. It was great having my questions answered professionally and not looked down upon. The art work from the gallery artists AND tattoo artists is incredible to say the least! Bayman is an absolute gentleman and carries himself with up utmost professionalism. Very easy going studio! I will send all people I know looking to get work done to this studio. Very pleased with my visit!

I can’t say enough good things about Bayman! He always does a great job on my tattoos and his shop is amazing! I can’t wait to get back in!

Tracy Schroeder

This truly is the place to go! Literally our whole family has had our work done here! The work has been amazing! And it's nice to know that he loves his work and is willing to listen to our ideas, yet give that perfect touch of his option to make our ideas a reality!! Wouldn't go anywhere else! We haven't been since the very first one, and don't plan on going anywhere else!

I got a tattoo here not too long ago done by Colby Morton. It was fantastic and it came out how I wanted it to. Colby did a great job, he listened to what I wanted and was very accommodating. He definitely knows what he’s doing! This is going to be my new regular tattoo place.

Matthew Dykes

Really nice guy that does excellent work.

Colby did my tattoo and knocked it our of the park. Light handed, worked fast and well, and mine was a cover up at that. Will be going back for the rest of my tattoos.

I have gotten two tattoos by the owner Steve Bayman, who is incredibly talented. Steve’s expertise is Neo-Traditionalism. He is soft handed and puts a lot of creativity into his work. Steve is not only a great artist but a good guy and a family man. It is really hard to find stable, consistent and reliable artists. I highly recommend him and Golden Stag.

Kyle Hamrick

A really great place with a focus on art and quality tattooing. I love the ability to experience a gallery, as well as have access to some of the best artists in the country. Colby is a true diehard fan of tattooing and its history, which greatly shows in the quality of his artwork/tattooing. Multiple friends of mine have been praising this shop and I definitely see why. It's great to see a shop continue to participate in shows and events nationally! Customer service, professionalism and cleanliness is top notch!

I saw some amazing art on a friend and ended up getting a referral to the owner of this studio. After many hours of tattooing and thousands of dollars well spent, my sides, chest, and sleeves are inked with some of the best art I’ve seen. Steve Bayman is an amazing tattoo artist and human being. We’ve spent a great deal of time together these days, and it’s crazy cool how good of an artist, person, and dad he is. I’d HIGHLY recommend this shop to anyone looking!

Batman is the best tattoo artist I have been too and the only one I’ll go to. I have many tattoos from him and I have yet to have to have any touched up even years later.

Great tattoo shop!!! Very friendly artists. Steve does amazing work!! I took my daughter to him for her first tattoo and he has done all of her work! I will never go to any other shop after finding this one. I referred all of my friends and family.

Stephanie Kemp

Can’t give Golden Stag Tattoo enough stars. Steve has done most of my tattoos, including a cover up on my back and a full, custom sleeve. And he has done all of my husband’s tattoos. Everywhere I go people compliment my sleeve and ask who does my work. Steve does amazing work and has a beautiful, clean shop. There are a ton of shops in town but THIS is place I tell people to go.

Alicia Briggs

One of a kind place in KC!

Amanda Woolums

Bayman has been tattooing me for about 9 years now. 6 tattoos later, a feature in his profile book, and I still only go to him and his shop.

Looking forward to getting more tatoos!

Brenda Coon

Laura Eshelman

Super clean, friendly, fun shop with an awesome art gallery.

Rachel Artinger

Golden stag is hands down the best, most friendly, and welcoming tattoo shop, for any person from any walk of life, ever. & what makes it even better is the art gallery and other shows and events they put on along with being a tattoo shop. Steve Bayman is a phenomenal tattoo artist, his work is flawless. With every one I get, I go in with an idea in mind and he designs and tattoos it way beyond my imagination! You won’t find a better shop or artist around, stop in and see for yourself, & meet the most genuine down to earth artists around!

I have been to see Steve quite a few times. Previously at Butch’s and now at Golden Stag Tattoo. It is a very nice shop. Very clean and well kept.

I love this shop. The artist here are top of the line and the environment is the best around!

Amy McKenney

Not the worst but not the best. Avoid if you need line work - my lines are a little shaky and blurry even once it healed, which is a bummer up close but not really noticeable otherwise. Shop minimum is cheap and they took me quickly as a walk in. Guys are friendly and the shop is clean.

lavy kris

Really clean and Zach does great art.

Abe Froman

A coworker of mine got an insanely good tattoo here so I had to check it out myself. I was blown away. Service was incredible, everyone was friendly and attentive, and even though the tattoo I got was fairly simple, it was done perfectly and quickly. Will definitely be going back for all future tattoos, and recommending all my friends to this great shop.
