Reviews of Irezumi Tattoo (Tattoo Shop)

Chad Ferguson

Like many other reviewers have mentioned the front desk is not always welcoming but is definitely offset by the quality of the artwork

Sarah Nicole

You guys need to update your website. I am a minor and recently tried getting my tongue pierced but couldn't because it is a "functional" piercing. Also, on your website it states that a minor can not get a tattoo but I was told at the actual shop that I am able to receive a tattoo, but no tongue piercing.

Micah Hall

Great experience every time. Kevin has been working on my poly tattoo and it's dope. Clean and professional.

Phillip Beam

Great dudes, Logan is my go to guy - always does an awesome job; incredible artist!

Sammy Mo

I mean they have a pool table in the lobby while you wait.... C'mon! Go see the talented Saint Dallas!

Elizabeth Arnold

First experience at a tattoo or piercing shop and it was great! So glad Cordis did my daughter's earlobe piercing. Quality work, and he really understands consent and respects young people as PEOPLE.

devon hause

Love the work me & my brother got done

Jason Barragan

Best tattoo place and best prices

Angela Wright

I went today to get my piercings and the girl that did them (I can't remember your name. I'm so sorry) was amazing! If I ever want any more done she is who I will go to! And I don't know if it was the same guy everyone is talking about, but the guy at the front desk was cool as hell. I plan on getting some tattoo work done soon and will be definitely be coming here! Thanks for a great experience!

Brittany Duman

I love this place!!! The piercer is amazing and super friendly!

Landon Divine

I've always admired all of the work I've seen coming out of this place. I recommended it to my buddy for his first tattoo, so we went in a couple weeks ago. I wasn't aware they'd moved to a new location in the same area, and this one suits the atmosphere. Chris was awesome, especially with it being my friend's first tattoo. Great experience, clean, sterile, light handed (from what I heard) and non-intimidating.. until after. We saw an artist lose it on a potential client in the foyer when she asked him to redraw a design. I know it's one artist out of a group and people have bad days, but I mean. It was a bit loud and abrasive for something that is inherently part of your job.. you could always charge by the hour and include the consult/redrawing if it upsets you that much, as I heard varying price scales coming from each artist. He had the nerve to ask her if she still wanted him to tattoo her. If I knew his name, I'd give it. Five stars for the shop as a whole, but losing one for that pretty unprofessional outburst.

Stephen K

Dennis was awesome, even though I got a very small basic piece he still treated me like a customer that was getting major work done. 10/10 would recommend to my friends and anyone I care about. Awesome experience, will definitely be going back to Dennis!

Silvia Burton

Awesome artists, Cris did my tattoo and he was super patient, he talked to me to find out what I did want and suggested the best solutions for my cover up. Super 5 stars. I'm in love with my tatoo

Jona Murphy

I have had three tattoos done at Irezumi, including one very large, custom rib piece and I have always been impressed with their cleanliness and quality of work. Alex has done my tattoos but I am certain any artist would do a great job!

Kristie Bradley

I came in to inquire about a tattoo a couple weeks ago and everyone was super helpful and friendly from the front desk to the artist. I met with Blake and showed him ideas I had and he had a custom design drawn up that was amazing! I had my appointment last week and it turned out beautifully. I had to go to the appointment by myself but everyone in the shop was welcoming and Blake really calmed my nerves. I will be back and I will recommend to all!

Raëvyn Wyndë

Artists are most excellent in both their work and as people. The piercer is really awesome, makes sure the piercings work before sticking you. Overall great service.

Meredith Di Nardi

Went to get a tattoo today with Jesus and he was fabulous!! Drew up a split piece front and back over the shoulder and i couldnt have asked for anything better. He was professional and great at what he does. I will be back to add on to this piece. Thank you!

Ryan Avants

Best tattoo shop in town, Brad Franzen is the man for biomechanical!

Amanda Knowles

Did a great job and good pricing! Will definitely go back!

Tim Lewis

Just got my first tattoo here today. I am so glad I came here instead of settling for someone cheaper. Dallas was my artist and the entire experience couldn't have gone better. They reasonably priced and very laid back and professional. I was in and out in less than two hours. I recommend these guys to anyone. I will definitely be coming back.

Robert Covington

Just had a tattoo done by Tim. He was great! Such a clean shop and awesome staff. Definitely going to be coming back to time to get more work done!

Ashley Sharp

This is the place to go hands down. When I walked in they respectfully greeted me and we're so very helpful at making sure all my many questions were answered. I received such a great experience that I had to write something for them. Oh, and I would like to mention how CLEAN this place was. EVERYTHING was sterolized. You can tell they take great pride at making this a professional place of business but with a bit of flare too. Now that I've been here I couldn't bring myself to go anywhere else. Wonderful job guys!

life,want,need skills. God is my plan.

You received one star for the man who sits in the front he was nice. I would of did no stars but I couldn't. Been there 4 times with in 6 mys to keep getting a Piercing that I was told was done wrong with a earring that was to big to come back after it healed ,came back to another piercer same spot and the piercing still managed to come out . I would like for them to start giving out honest info. On top of that spent a lot of money. Then you come on here Being sarcastic instead of asking would happen furthermore shows How unprofessional your establishment is. And your welcome.

Lyneane Amos

To celebrate fifteen pounds lost as well as a number of other victories and major positive changes in my life, I decided to get my nose pierced. I am the biggest chicken on the planet! But I thought NO I'm going to do it. Devin (hope that's spelled corretly) was so patient,understanding,and kind. She walked me through the whole thing by explaining as she was doing it, exactly what was happening. Before I knew it, I had a really cool nose ring. Thanks to Devin and Irezumi. Who knows? I just might decide to get a tattoo!

Sarah Wilkerson

Extremely rude! My friends and I came in an hour and a half before the closed and had schedualed an appointment but when we got there they refused to help us and claimed they had another customer. But no one else was there.. they were just lazy and didn’t want to do it.

Josh A

Confident staff and a friendly environment

Matt Beauchene

Quality artists but some additudes are strong here.

Jami Applegate

Mark is incredible! He did my sleeve and all the work is great!! I recommend him to anyone who asks about where to get a tattoo.

Shana Ford

I have had all my piercings done by Beth and she is by far the best in the city. Their new location is fantastic and they are always very professional and kind. The shop is always clean and they know what they are doing. I will be taking my daughter's here for their ears and cartilage piercings as they become old enough. If you want amazing art work and quality piercings done right irezumi is the best.

Dee Davis

I'm almost 60 years old, recently got 2 tattoo's. Kevin is kind, gentle, and caring! He does a great job!!!

Jessica Scott

Everyone was super friendly and professional. Would definitely go back for future peircings.

Marissa Austin

Very clean and professional love the layout of the shop would definitely recommend everyone to get their tattoos done here I've had 3 done so far and absolutely love them so yes highly recommended

Kathleen McRoberts

Love these guys, no matter what I make an appearance for or why!!!

Tanner Howe

Very clean, awesome atmosphere! The quality of work was outstanding.

Lori Walker

Absolutely love it!

John Cipponeri

Chris Cobb was a super accommodating artist. Could not be happier.

Candy Skaggs

Was told they just take walk-ins on Sundays and they have a lot of workers on Sunday. Get there on a Sunday and they only have two tattooist working and the wait would be a few hours if they could do it at all. Since I drove a ways to get there was not real pleased about it.Other than that it was fine.

Bonnie S

Finally got my first tattoo! My sister and I got one together and she took us here since Kevin had such a great job on her first one. Everyone was very nice and Kevin was fantastic! The tattoos came out perfectly (still healing but it looks amazing!) and was relatively painless. We both got similar pieces, but different styles. But he kept the font on both pretty much the same which we love!

Susie Hall

Very talented nice people!!

Preston Buckley

I've been a few times and have been extremely satisfied every time. Dennis is a great artist, who does FANTASTIC work. I'll be back for sure.

Kelsie Little

Very clean and professional! Staff is great also!

jake gordon

By far the most professional tattoo shop I've ever experienced. Never have to be concerned with the outcome of your tattoo, or the cleanliness of the equipment. Artist there always perform far past expectations, and I know this will bethe only place I'll come for anymore tattoos.

PopTart GrAySON

The tech that pierced my nose did an awesome job!! My husband and I will be going back for some different work.

Lena Garcia

They were SO clean and professional! Cordis was awesome and we had some good laughs

Sarah Apple

Beautifully drawn image of the KC Scout on my boyfriend's chest by Dallas! Brad scetched joining sea crests on my wrists on the spot! LOVE their work! I will be back to get another!

Alyssa Rixson

Mark Long is the best

Sandra Clark

I like my tattoo, but they were rude unprofessional and racist! The guy did my tattoo was rude to my friend said she asked to many questions. Things escalated from there they called my friends out of there names and one them threatened to beat my friend up which was a female. I hated that I wasted my money there. Was the worst experience ever. I called back to tell how I felt because I was in shocked that everything was happening so fast. The said as long as you like your tattoo that all should matter. No it you suck in customer service and don't have no self control over yourself. It ruin my experience there. Will never ever go back there again. If I can remember there names in would definitely but them on blast.

Khanse Lucas

I've had issues with tattoo shops in the past so I came in cautious, but as soon as I came in all my worries went away. Everyone was very professional. Jesus was the one who did my tattoo and its gorgeous, I'll be returning for him to fix my other ones. And I recommend this shop to anyone looking for a good tattoo. Just know its first come first serve get there early as they're always busy

ajmcgirr

Place was very clean and great looking wait was a little long I got a tounge piercing the piercer did an amazing job she was very nice but the front staff was a little unatentive and answered my questions like I was a virus but overall a great place amazing prices

Abby Urbanek

Was able to do a walk-in tattoo on a Sunday morning. It turned out great. I want to say my artist's name was Kevin. This was my 4th tattoo and my first time going somewhere other than my "home studio" in Nebraska. Would definitely recommend.

Mally Boutsomsi

I came here with a friend to get her a tattoo. The guy at the front desk told me I acted like I was better than everyone else because I had no tattoos/piercings (I do, and I got it there, a year ago) and then called me a b*tch. Was also really rude when my friend called over the phone. Went to another place down the road and they were friendly.

JM C

Got my left calf done by Dallas. First tattoo. Great experience, the places is clean and classy. So happy with the work I had to write my first Google review about it. I would highly recommend this place. Simply go into the other shops on wornall and then come to Irezumi. That experience alone will assure you you're in the right place. Thanks dallas.

Steve Godsey

Jacob did a tattoo for my wife that was amazing. He did text, that truly looked like it was done by a computer!! Please see him... Steve

Angel Reffitt

Amazing customer service and great prices. Loved Jacob our artists.. Will definitely be back!

Patrick Carrell

Best place in KC to get a tattoo!!! Amazing artists and great friendly service. The only place I go now

Mason Whaley

Tim was amazing - patient, friendly, and an outstanding artist. This place deserves its reputation.

brittany shaw

Beth is amazing and really knows what she is doing! Got a simple industrial piercing from her a few days ago. Very minimal pain, took only a couple minutes, and she was very thorough in explaining exactly what she was doing each step of the way. She took the time to explain every detail of the aftercare and gave me her card with many ways to contact her if anything went wrong which, so far, it hasn't. The redness and minor swelling has already gone down and it's healing nicely. The guys at the front desk were a little stand-off ish and slightly intimidating but eh. It's a tattoo shop in KC. What can you really expect? All in all, awesome experience!

Virgil Wright

Nice person

Andrea Dunn

I called them on 3/25 at 5:41pm. I asked specifically for pricing on ear piercing. Was told $20 per lobe including the jewelry. Also asked if they would pierce a 10 year olds ears and they said yes. I asked to make sure there would be a piercer there on 3/26 as I planned on making a trip there that day. The person on the phone was very rude and kept huffing and puffing when I would ask another question. But I decided to still give them a chance. We walked in at 6:30 on 3/26 to get one ear pierced. Was told they would not do anyone under 15. I told the guy that I had just called yesterday and was told something different. He then says the piercer who can do someone under 15 isn’t there. So I asked what the difference in piercers was. He had no answer. And then didn’t even apologize for the incorrrect information I was given. We drove 3 hours to do this today. We are now driving back another 3 hours. I’m very upset that we waisted our money and time to go specifically to this place. I sent a message on Facebook to let them know how unprofessional they are and how much money I’m out now. No response. I’m sure I won’t get one. I will never be going back here. Your artist and piercers May be good but the lack of professionalism and rudeness of the front desk “staff” will shut you down.

CuNeese Patterson

Friendly, comfortable

Tonia Highers

Beth has done a daith piercing for me and ears pierced for my daughter. Super patient and friendly. Entire staff I have met are very friendly and helpful

Purple Butterfly

Dennis is great!! Covered up an old ugly I'm 18 so I can do whatever I want now tattoo.

Review Reviewer

Piercer is always on point. I got my tragus pierced and it fell out in my sleep. Went back in on a Sunday and he got a new one with a clasp in and it was $5. Such great service both times I went, the location is super super clean, and felt comfortable and cozy. I don’t do well with blood and they were friendly and supportive, I’m gonna be spending a lot of $$ here.

jaraye jones

I loved this place just went to go get an industrial piercing by cordis made me feel very comfortable omg nicest people ever I would honestly recommend them to anyone it was fast, didn't have to wait for anything. I was so scared coming in but they made me feel so welcomed hands down the best place to go to.

John Sword

Great place I've come here for many years to get my work done. Super friendly staff and awesome atmosphere.

Katie Carpenter

Very professional and easy to work with. Helped out with ideas to finish my tattoo. Very time efficient as well. Will only ever go to this shop!

Gabe Dick

Can't say enough about this place! In town for the weekend and had a limited time frame since I'm a truck driver, so had to do a walk-in. Went in the day before to ask about coming in the next day. Gal working reception was very helpful and spared nothing to help figure out when to come in the next day. The next morning I showed up at open and she happily talked with me about what my tattoo was and some general small talk. Then the other guy, i believe it was Blake, offered to get me a coffee from next door! I went along and I'll tell you what, he and that receptionist made me feel like a long time customer who knew them personally. Then there was Kevin, who didnmy tattoo. He did an outstanding job, and what was originally going to be a one time, i got a tattoo in kc, experience, has turned into Kevin and I already talking excitedly about what my next one by him will be. I'm also hoping the artist who was kick-ass at customer service(blake i think) will do a couple for me. I cannot wait to come again!!!!

Erin Kelley

I got my nose pierced here on Saturday by Daryl. He was the SWEETEST guy and VERY professional. I had friends there for moral support and he patiently answered all of their questions, then brought me water and a cold cloth when I felt woozy after standing up to fast. What a great experience and a great shop! Thanks Daryl!

Andria H

The same guy helps us everytime. He's rude and belligerent.

Laura Pezold

I first went to Irezumi a few weeks ago to get my tragus pierced. I was impressed, the workers were pretty nice and it seemed very clean. 5 days after I got my piercing, it fell out of my ear while I was asleep. I went back and the one guy piercer said I could come back and get it pierced again for free when it healed. I just went back yesterday and my experience honestly sucked. First, the guy at the front desk looked at someone's ID and suggested that "they look like they would get in a lot of trouble at airports". I am not sure why he felt it was appropriate to say this to someone, but the person was clearly uncomfortable. Then, after I got my tragus re-pierced the guy said I had to pay $20 for the jewelry that he made me use (I had the orginial jewelry with me and offered for him to use that). He also didn't say I was going to have to pay again and I wasn't expecting to have to pay because he previously said it would be free.

Erika Wright

The guy manning the front desk and phone was so rude and obnoxious that I just left. On top of being just an unpleasant and unhelpful customer service person he also volunteered his off the wall opinions about a variety of unconnected things, hinting at the chaotic mind lurking beneath. Topics included: Drugs he did in the 80's. A recent flat earthers convention that came to the conclusion that Australia doesn't exist, as well as a long story about a flat earther that used to work there. How nobody should go to Mexico for a while because all the rich Mexicans were in Russia so you were sure to get abducted. Side note: they only take cash but the vending machine takes cards. What. The piercers and artists may be fine but I'm just going to follow recommendations and go to Supernatural instead.

Jarah Schultz

Got an eyebrow piercing here done by Beth. The shop is clean and professional. Beth was extremely nice and answered every question I had about the piercing. I had a friend also get a tattoo here and she loves it. Highly recommend this place!

Ashley hillman

Wasted 5 hours sitting there when they told me Jesus would help me. Some random drunk guy wouldn't leave me alone so I tried to get him to be quiet so he wouldn't bother other people and Jesus looked right at me and the guy at the front desk even told him I have waited for awhile. He came downstairs said he was leaving and left. This place was a 5 star before but this has made me never want to come back. You have officially lost a customer

Christine Baxter

Piercer is great and very reasonably priced. All staff have been very personable and friendly.

Korena Leach

I went to irezumi with my cousins and sister to get a very special and meaningful but simple tattoo (a cursive L with 2 small hearts) well, i should have known better than to come here first hand because they messed up my sisters rosary tattoo, but since i different guy was doing them, i thought id give them the benefit of the doubt. A couple things that turned me completely off... 1. The artist we had was rude and acted like we were a HUGE inconvenience to him. He barely spoke to us, we didnt feel comfortable at all with him and we wanted to do this together and he completely disacknowledge this and we were split up. 2. I wasnt so sure on their after care procedure. I had to ask for a bandage to go over it and he didnt even use any goo on mine afterwards. He didnt bandage anyone else either and did not provide us with any after care instructions. 3. I get that tattoos can fade a little, but one of my hearts will have to be completely redone because no ink stayed in (i took proper care of it since my buddy is a tattoo artist and gave me proper care instructions) 1 of my cousins had to ask him to redo hers that day because it wasnt even finish, and my other cousin needs to have her whole L redone. 4.The only time we ever held any type of conversation or our artist even showed any emotion was when we were about to pay and leave (how convinient right?) I waited to post this until my tattoo fully healed just to make sure i wasnt overreacting, but what should have been a fun, meaningful afternoon turned into an awkward and unsatisfactory afternoon with a mediocre tattoo that needs touched up already.

Wendy Hatlestad

Very professional, lots of artist with loads of talent. Clean facility and plenty of room to move around. The pool table in the lobby is a great for when you have to wait. Appointments are recommended and it is a cause only facility so come prepared.

Liberta Fenice

very friendly and helpful, although the artist who did my families tattoos no longer works here everyone was great and he did a great job. i got my first tattoo at 18 here (i now have 11, two i did myself) and the rest of my family have gotten a total of 15 tattoos done here. Highly recommended.

Jennifer High

I had looked and looked for a place that could combine my dads handwriting with some kind of art to represent my mom and keep it super delicate. Kevin nailed it. Staff was professional and polite. Super clean. Guaranteed their work. Patient while we got the art just right. It was my first tattoo but needless to say I will be back. Cannot say enough nice things about this place.

Mo Torres

This shop is extremely helpful. Great knowledgeable people here.

Andrea Schoen

This place came recommended by a friend. I'm so glad I went here for my first tattoo and quite possibly all the rest. I walked in without an appointment and got my tattoo the same day. The shop is clean, well-decorated, and roomy. It is easily the nicest tattoo shop I've been in. These guys are professionals and act like it. My tattoo was done in a timely manner even though I was prepared to wait. There's a coffee shop next door for those who do have to wait. My tattoo turned out beautifully and was exactly what I wanted. Dallas was my artist and his placement was precise. I highly recommend Irezumi and I'll definitely be returning.

Tom

Artist were great but "B" the booking desk guy was rude as hell.

Gary Villanueva

Best in the city!

Kristin Young

Love my piercer there but my tattoo artist Mark was very rude and would not accommodate to my schedule for a touch up. I originally got my back tattoo done in April first session was great he took his time and everything but when I came back for my second session a month later my artist was rude as hell. Increased the price for numbing cream that was promised for the whole tattoo used it the first session but second session nope. He was rushing through the second session because he had someone waiting on him downstairs when we still had over half to still do. He did it in like 30 minutes when the first session was 2 1/2 hours. When he was done it looked fine but of course I can hardly see it since it’s on my back. After a week or so I could tell where some lines weren’t connected and my top half of my dream catcher looked like a sketch! I messaged him about a touch up and he said he will only do them during the week and I told him the time I could be there and he wouldn’t work with me. And then I asked about weekends and that doesn’t work either. After going back and forth for months. We agreed on a date in September finally but the closer it got to it I couldn’t make that work and he said we will just switch it to next Saturday so I said ok sweet when I messaged him to confirm I was told no that doesn’t work and ended up getting blocked because I was upset I’ve paid for a full tattoo and can’t even get in to have him finish his work. Mark was very unprofessional about the whole situation and i didn’t realize I’d have to put more money into this piece because he can’t be professional enough to finish what he started. Lesson learned I guess...

srnash1

I got my very first tattoo here, and loved every minute of it. Jakob did an excellent job! Everyone that works there seems to really love what they do. Very clean shop. Thanks again!

Collin Giambrone

Left several messages for the artist Chris to call me back to schedule a date to touch up the tattoo he did for me, never got a response. Very disappointed as I left him a generous tip after the initial tattoo appointment. I didn’t think it would be such a hassle to return somebody’s phone call, as I don’t want to drive 45 minutes out of my way to schedule something that could be done over the phone. I will be finding another tattoo shop to finish out my sleeve.

Wood Weatherford

Dennis was Great. He nailed it!

Valerie Mullins

My husband I have been here a few times now, each of us getting our own style of ink. The staff is awesome and Kevin is simply AMAZING! I highly recommend the establishment for anyone looking for a great tattoo...and if you get Kevin, deem yourself lucky. We live almost 2 hours away, so 4 hours round trip, just for the work that Kevin does. Mad props!!!

Shaina Mayes

wouldn't go anywhere else.

Vicki Graham

Friendly and clean. The gentleman that did my tattoo was very on point.

Kendrick Hampton

I received my first tattoo from this place and my girlfriend got a belly piercing. Both walk ins and we stayed about an hour total. Artists were very personable and made you feel comfortable and welcome. I will definitely be recommending this parlor in the future and plan on returning in a month or so to get more work done. Thank you for the 5 star experience.

Gabriel DeLaFuente

I’ve gotten 3 tattoos all by Trevor Roque and he does a phenomenal job everytime. he really makes it a good fun experience and does great work. definitely recommend him!

Rosalind O'Hora

Great people work well together and great tattoos done

Rachel Metzler

Dallas is wonderful to work with. Not only did he make a great rendition of what I wanted but he covered up an old tattoo with it. I was very happy with the results!!!

Elizabeth Fleming

I have one tattoo done here by Jakob, and my nose pierced by Kaylee. They were my first piercing and tattoo, and both Jakob and Kaylee were very reassuring and gentle and answered all of my questions while providing other very useful information as far as cleaning and care go. Excellent, excellent customer service and I definitely will be coming back for my next tattoos and piercings in the future.

Paul Walker

Clean place, helpful, kind and professional staff

sabian pearce

Blake does amazing work!

Crane Industries

If you want to get a tattoo, and you want it done right Irezumi is the best place in Kansas City.

Maggie Schieber

I just got pierced here by Cordis! He did an amazing job and was so professional and kind. Love this place.

Maddi Castaldi

Amazing staff!! Had a really great experience there and will be sure to return if I’m ever wanted something else done!

Enrique Yamil

Really good and professional!! They know what they are doing for sure!

Nuclear Dump

Absolute joke of a shop. Wouldn't return email or call during business hours to see if they have time for a walk in. I contacted 3 days prior to my visit and showed up just to get turned away, because they are booked. There are better shops within a 10 minute drive

Kent Rockwood Tyler

So yeah, I recently got an MRI and forgot to put my nipple ring back in.....2 days later, couldn't get it back in. Found Irezumi Tattoo and was greeted and told the gentleman my issue and he said we can fix that. The piercing artist was a very polite young lady name Devyn. Very patient, very personable. She got it back in. Now......when a piercing artist does you a solid for next to nothing $$ wise.....make sure ya give em a little extra......

Nick Harvey

Got a tattoo here the other day with two of my brothers, who had never had one before. We were referred to Trevor and gave him our idea for a tattoo to match/honor our grandmothers, who passed. He took that idea and updated it and put a personal spin on it for each of us, so they all are somewhat unique. They all look amazing and we all couldn't be happier with how they turned out. He was really cool dude and I can't thank him enough for all he did for us. Thanks man.

Sally Coker

Absolutely wonderful! Walked in and Chris got me taken care of perfectly!! Recommend this shop for sure! Went in with an idea, left with perfection!

Ashley Burton

Staff was awesome!! Quick service!!!

Morgan Cunningham

Very happy with all my tattoo work but the piercer made my nose studs on either side uneven. Had to take the piercing out. Slight waste of 60$

Christal Harris

Only place I go...

Cecilia Howell

I did a ton of looking for a good place to get a tattoo in Kansas City. The reviews were great for this place! I decided to give it a shot. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door (which is huge) the entire staff was friendly, to us and others. The place was clean and very well put together. Mark did my tattoo. Mark jumped up to help me, introduced himself with a handshake (another huge plus) I told him what I wanted and he ran with it. I couldn’t be happier with his art. I didn’t once feel like they just wanted to collect my money and get me in and out. (Let’s face it, most of us have been to a shop like that) He took his time, made me feel welcome. I highly recommend this place. I’m extremely satisfied with my tattoo, and plan to be back in the near future!

Shawnna Luv

Wasn't very warm n inviting...

Kaleea Van Mol

I met with Courtis for a navel piercing @ Irezumis. He was super kind, respectful and informative. I was a little nervous but he made the process quick and painless. Not to mention I was in and out within 20 minutes. Would recommend

Don Brawner

Saint Dallas did exactly what we asked for at a reasonable price. Matching tattooes for our wedding.

Kevin Becknal

Jacob was cool and very knowledgable....

S. K.

First tat.. Kevin nailed it!

Lauren Walker

Great place to get tattoos and piercings... such nice people and I like going to irezumi tattoo shop

Sue Tessary-Toates

Chris is awesome. Been back multiple times. Both me and husband. Totally recommend!!!

Maddy Self

Cortis is a great piercer and an overall chill guy! Will definitely come back for more!

Airy Chong

Love the atmosphere here everyone is super nice! Dallas did my tattoo and he's a great artist!!! Super clean and sterile workspaces. Reasonable prices on tattoos as well. I'll definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great tattoo shop in the Kansas City area.

pam riley

I have had 10 tattoos and 14 piercings done here. The piercers are awesome and very fast. My fav is Beth but they are all good! I love all my tattoos and I love that they have hand drawn all of them. My first was done by Tiffany (RIP). I had one done by Mark and all the rest by Chris. All are very talented artists. I have referred several friends and family members here and all have had great experiences. My favorite place to go! And k9 Closet is there too so if you have pets you should check it out for unique collars, great products and quality food!

Allison Policky

Absolutely love this place! I have received a nostril pierce (and repierce bc of my clumsiness) among with a daith piercing from Cordis. He is so informative and kind about every process. I have recommended this place so much and can’t wait to go back for future piercings!

Talented Mars

Very professional tattoo artist here, make sure you have the size of your tattoo.

Matthew F

Mark is the best and does great work

Jessica Royster

Love the artists, love the work, love the atmosphere. Highly recommend

Nate Walker

Great decoration. Cool location. Awesome artists.

James Dimitt

I just got a tattoo with Kevin today. I'm very pleased with his work and he was very nice. Irezumi is clean, well lit, peaceful, and fairly priced. My tattoo ended up being way less than I thought it would be and I'm very pleased with my experience there.

Andy Caraway

My artist was great and easy to work with. Make sure to set up things in person as calling or electronic communication is not ideal for these situations. The shop is clean and cool!

Safe to say I was VERY nervous to get my first tattoo, but Saint Dallas totally blew me out of the water. He drew up my idea in a way I never would have thought to, made me feel completely at ease, and did an incredible job. Both the experience and the tattoo turned out better than I could have ever expected. Thank you, Saint Dallas & Irezumi Tattoo!

Awesome! Go see Kevin!

Walked in and got 4 piercings done by Cordis, 2 upper lobe and 2 cartilage. Nothing too fancy but he was super kind and informative about it all, very quick and gentle, made the whole experience as good as it possibly could have been honestly. Total time was probably only about 20 minutes in and out but that I know was based on my luck of time, but still! It was over so fast I wasn't sure if I'd even had anything done. Thanks man I wish I had more work I wanted done just because it was so pleasant with you!

The only positive thing about my experience at Irezumi is that it led me to Mikey Ruck at Catalyst in Independence- who fixed my botched tattoos I received at Irezumi. Mikey at Catalyst gave a completely different tattoo experience than I received here. He, and everyone at his shop, are extremely friendly and non judgmental. He made what was a really bad experience and a possible life long mistake into tattoos that I now love! I will not be going back to Irezumi Body Art. But again, the silver lining is that it led me to find a tattoo artist I plan to have for life!

Katie Held

I loved my experience and I highly recommend Trevor for good clean tattoos!!

Daniel Warren

Absolutely loved my tat. I have had three by Steve Drew, and they all we're awesome. He was very professional, and the whole place was spotless and classy.

Shannon Leon

Kevin is the ONLY artist I have tattoo me anymore. 8 years and counting. His work never disappoints.

Peggy Wilson

Walked in today with no appt for a Daith piercing. Cordis was amazing! I was nervous, he put me at ease and was done so quickly!! Took time to talk before and after... when I decide to get ink I will go back there and will definitely ask for him!

Mariah Trujillo

I got my first tattoo here. I love it. But the guy who did it was acting like he didn't even care. He was very unprofessional. I mean this is your job and what you are doing is something they carry for a lifetime you don't have to be an ass about it.

Thanks Guys for helping me honor my beloved dog that recently passed. Dennis did a great job, and Derek, the owner was awesome as well. The shop was spotless and very nice. It was my first tattoo and maybe now not the last. I would highly recommend Irezumi !

Elizabeth O'Connor

I love this, I've been to it for all my tats except to that I had covered be Tim at irezumi. He did all my tattoos except one and Mark did that one it's my favorite which is my back piece.

Noemi Hernandez

Saw Dennis there, awesome dude. kick back atmosphere. Clean place! And loving my tattoo. Going back for more outline and shading.

Dan Petree

Getting ready to go back for another tat. My wife and I have been going here for 14 years getting all our piercings and tattoos. Always had a great experience, that is why I cant see the two girls that call them racist being true. My wife has never had a horrible or even close to bad experience with them because of her being black! Some people need to grow up.....Irezumi is a quality and professional business that I will continue to go too for years!

Alyshia Elbert

I've got my first tattoo here I love it will be back soon‼‼

Audrey Zimmerman

I got my piercings done there. They are very clean and professional but are super chill and laidback. I feel very comfortable there.

Kristen Self

The staff here are friendly and funny. Im always greeted in a timely and fun manner. The building itself is historic and awesome and beautifully kept. Seen multiple tattooers there and they're all amazing. Saint Dallas is my go to guy though. There's an atm inside, and great jewelry for probably all piercings. They play good music, everyone's joking around. Exactly the experience you want when you go into a tattoo shop.

Britney Schamberger

Best tattoo shop I've been in, Brad did an amazing job! Our car got stuck in the back parking lot and thankfully Brad took 20 minutes out of his day helping us get out! Such freindly people, felt very comfortable there! Definitely going here again!!

Brittnee W

Jakob work on my tattoos came out better than i imagined. Definitely going back for more work.

Julia Sedlock

Chris is the most awesome tattoo artist there is!

Lantz Tucker

First tattoo from this shop and was very impressed. Good price, excellent work and great atmosphere. Jesus did this tattoo. Definitely recommend him.

Diana Wheeler

Friendly, clean, great work

Jesenia Padilla

I, wthout a doubt, always get the best service and advice from Cordis the piercer!! Will go back again and again!

Sean Martin

It's a tattoo place! No more, no less; artist are cool! Dig the music as well!

Em Morris

I just got my first tattoo here the other day and it was a great experience. Trevor, the artist, worked with me to ensure I loved the font even when I wanted something different than his suggestion. He was patient and made sure I was comfortable at all points during the process. I will definitely be going back to him for my next tattoo!

Casey Brown

I came as moral support with a friend and her daughter who wanted a nose piercing. While there, I decided to re-pierce my tragus. Devin was wonderfully patient, kind, conversational, and good at her trade. When I knocked off the front of the stud while cleansing a week and a half later, I returned for new jewelry, with which she was happy to help me, and I ended up leaving with a new conch piercing. She’s not closest to where I live but she is definitely one of my favorite piercers, so I will go back to work on the other ear when I’m home next.

Seneca Mohamed

I got a great cover up from Kevin fast and efficient. Will definitely come again highly recommend this nice clean shop

Chris Norton

Best shop and only one in the city y I'll go to. Been coming here for about 16 years

Crystal Koehn

Piercer was AWESOME! It was very clean and sanitary. Everyone was friendly.

Les Personal

Love the atmosphere and talented artists, but not crazy about the lack of customer service.

Michelle Clair

rude as hell

Ashley Ogea

I'm giving 3 stars because of the work. If I could rate how I was treated on the 4 occasions I came in for tattoos and piercings it would be a 1. They are always rude at the front desk and act as if they cannot be bothered by requests for service or god forbid ask a question. My artist was just as bad, rude and treated me like a burden, you would have thought I kicked his dog he was so rude and short with me. I choose the shop out of respect for the great artists and although I did not have the pleasure to meet all of them, the ones I did meet made me realize I will not be getting any work done at this shop again. It isn't hard to be a good person to people; especially people who are CHOOSING to display your art on them for a lifetime.

Samantha Anne

This place is the best! Amazing people! Great costumer service!

Kyrie Bader

Came in as a walk-in with a friend, Trevor was our artist, and he’s fantastic! We gave him our ideas and what he came back with was amazing! This was my first tattooing experience and I couldn’t have asked for a better one! Thanks, Trevor!
