Reviews of Alchemist Tattoo (Tattoo Shop)

Vincent Heidt

Best local place for a great tattoo and experience.

Cherrie Mayer

Totally happy...

Barb Plum

I like tattoos... but I'm not an artist. Thank God Rich IS!! I came to him with an idea and he not only brought that vision to life for me, but also covered an old, tired piece I had with BEAUTIFUL new art. Because I had such a great experience, I booked with him when I was ready for another original piece. He didn't disappoint - and again, while I was there, he refreshed an old tattoo that I hardly even noticed anymore because it was so faded. His eye for color and balance is exemplary. I hope he stays around Bismarck for a long time... I have more ideas I want to pursue and Rich is my guy!! (My daughter was so jealous of my amazing art that she also has a "Rich Hudson" piece to be proud of! This mama didn't raise a dumb kid!) :) Thank you Rich and Alchemist for several fantastic experiences!

Their Artist left or was fired. Who knows. I had a tattoo deposit and as of now it's gone. Alchemist tells me to take it up with the artist. Their response was "call rich". Alchemist gave no sh!t to my money. 200$ where is my deposit? Upon 1st email to artist I was told deposit is non refundable. I held up my part of the bargain. I just wanted ink. Now my money is gone. For real though, I don't go to get a tattoo trying to be a lawyer. I just expect ink. Alchemist essentially told me to screw myself after I lost out on a deposit.

JACKEE ROHRICH

Love love love this Tattoo shop! Been going there forever!! Simeon is my amazing tattoo artist and has never let me down. He is creative and his color saturation is amazing! Will never go anywhere else! Rich and Chris also have mad skills and I would be proud to have any of their art on my body. Very reasonable for art that lasts forever!!

Friendly. Helpful. Great work.

Josh Riegel

Highly recommend this shop as well as Chris and Rich as artists. The environment is extremely clean and professional which is exceeded only by the tattoo artistry

Rocky Bullinger

Been going here for years and have about 50 hours of tattooing with them. There’s definitely a reason I continue going back. All the artists make it such a relaxed fun atmosphere and are also extremely professional. In my opinion their talent all around is unmatched by any other shop around. I’m extremely picky and can be tough to work with and it never seems to be a challenge for them. Thanks again to everyone at Alchemist for the great work and memories!

Leah Bee

Amazing service, dealt with the piercer and an artist and both were very nice, they're cool people and not egotistical like some artists can be. I felt very relaxed and welcomed and they do great work! And yes, it's very clean and they follow all standard procedures. Great place, will be back for more tats!

Eric Maragos

Amazing artists who will do everything to make your vision come to life.

Travis Schrenk

I regret trusting Rich with my most important piece. This piece required very specific color choices to which Rich responded “that’s no problem” during our consultation. Although I did provide a design example, I allowed Rich to utilize his creative liberties in the final design however I was very specific with the coloration. Nonetheless, his creative liberties spilled over into the coloration. Before the haters get on me with “color looks different once it heals and skin tones make a difference”, his color selection is nowhere near what I wanted. His color choices took away every ounce of meaning of the tattoo. Unfortunately I didn’t realize this until it was too late. He got extremely upset when I pointed out his error and attempted to fix it but ending up overworking the skin (which later did become infected). At that point he offered me a follow-up visit once it heals to attempt to remedy the issue. After initially accepting responsibility for the error, he has since done a complete 180 and has placed the entire blame on me. I don’t know how much more I could spell out the specific colors that were required other than the examples I provided which he had right in front of him. He must be color blind is all that I can think of. Nonetheless, his refusing to accept responsibility for his actions says a lot about his character and I regret ever trusting him with something so important to me. What’s even more disappointing is when made aware of the issue the shop owners, Simeon and Chris, have yet to reach out to attempt to remedy situation which says a lot about their character. Needless to say I will not be returning to Alchemist Tattoo for any future work. I have since consulted the best in the business to see if he can attempt to salvage the piece, unfortunately he doesn’t think he can. I guess my only other options are to have it lasered off or appear on Tattoo Nightmares. To sum it up, I trusted the wrong artist with the most important, most expensive, and largest piece that is a disgrace to my body. The real kicker is Rich didn’t even offer me a discount!

Kevin Wanner

Let everybody know Chris is a class act as an owner.

Zoop McShtoop

#1 best shop with great artists who are all awesome people

Lindsay Sanmiguel

Love Aileen, she has always done an amazing job on my piercings!!

Jacob Herman

Simeon, Rich and Chris are all very talented artists who are very passionate about their work and it shows. They take the time to give you the art that you want on your body. I have been tattooed by Rich on 3 separate occasions and each time I have walked out of Alchemist Tattoo extremely satisfied. On the last tattoo, he noticed I was having a tough time with the pain and applied some numbing cream during the tattoo. Not only did he give me the tattoo I wanted, he made sure I was comfortable during the experience. These guys are awesome. 10/10

Christe Hempstead

Love love love this place!

Hannah Gunsch

Great atmosphere, experts in piercing handling! Gave good advice and replaced my jewelry for me, pain free! Extremely fast service and friendly team.

Joshua Haider

Clean, fertile, and professional environment. Not only talented, but good looking, these guys will leave a mark on you for life, literally.

Jay Law

Very friendly, open and accomidating. Professional clean and do great work. The owner really knows what she is doing! Highly recommend

Laken LaMotte

Alchemist re scheduled me 3 different times, and then when I physically couldn't make it in to the appointment, the kept my $70 down payment. Then I called and they were rude about it, and wouldn't let me re schedule with them. Very disappointed with customer service. Good artist, very unorganized.

Elizabeth Bennett

Best tattoo place in town, Rich is a brilliant artist! Excellent servcie!

Georgianna

I've been wanting a tattoo with my favorite Persian proverb for about 20 yrs and today I finally went in. I booked a sitting with Simon. I gave him some ideas of what I'd like and he nailed every aspect of the proverb... This was my 1st tattoo and Simon walked me through what to expect...He knew that I was nervous and made me feel so comfortable. I highly suggest going to Alchemist. They have amazing artists. I'm already thinking about my next one and look forward to Simon designing it.

Jordan Bitz

Excellent crew, friendly efficient clean and very helpful with the process!

Cake Toots

I've been getting my pieces done by Simeon for roughly 6 years now and I have never been disappointed or unhappy by any of his work. Simeon, and ALL of the artists at Alchemist, are extremely talented, professional and polite. The artists at Alchemist have very clean, one-of-a-kind pieces with talent that goes beyond being consistent. I'm very fortunate and proud to be a considered a "regular" at this tattoo shop.

Amber M

Amazing work wonderful artist's.

cassandra perkins

Amazing artists here one of a kind

Lauren Eilenberg

I got my first Tattoo here. Rich is very friendly and always made sure I was comfortable. The work he did on me was exactly what I wanted. He also made sure I don't get infected from the aftermath of getting a tattoo. The place and the tools are clean. Very safe and friendly place to get a tattoo.

Tina King

Best place in North Dakota as far as atmosphere, customer service, and talent. Amazing!!

DeJuan McWilliams

Great atmosphere and superb service! Will be returning!

Tyler Murschel

Very professional shop with outstanding artwork. I always recommend this shop.

Chad Thompson

I've gotten all my information done here. Staff is amazing and the place is very clean. All the artists do great work.

Danyul Nutt

Seeing as how this was my first tattoo at the age of twenty, I only have one word to describe this; phe-nominal. Hurt like a mother at first, but as me and the artist kept talking, it was a great distraction from the pain. Sampson, if you're reading this, I'ma tell you right now that you did a stellar freakin' job, dude! Coming back for next time for sure!!

Jazmin Gensrich

Amazing.

Alyssa Lambert

Rich is the only artist I will go to from now on. He has done several pieces on me now and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. His work is original and he truly goes above and beyond for his clients. I firmly believe he is one of the best working artists in the state.

Bre Sailer

Have over 20 pieces done by almost every artist at this shop. I would not go anywhere else for tattoos or piercings.

Casey Norman

Always a great experience!! Talented artists making sure you get what you want and a nice cohesive feel.

Josh Rhoads

Friendly group very professional, clean, talented!

Nevada Werner

An extremely talented and professional group of artists.

Genaro Flores

I've been familiar with most of these guys and gals over at Alchemist for upwards of a decade and I have seen nothing but stellar work and complete professionalism from all of them. They're all highly talented and personable. I will always recommend this shop to anyone I talk to. If you want to have the best experience getting tattoos or piercings, Alchemist is; hands down, the only place to go.

Jennifer Saville

Loved Chris. Quick and clean work

David Anderson

super thoughtful creative and helpful with all questions!!!

Shiloh-Kay Bennett

Rich is an amazing artist and has done 4 of my tattoos. His colour work continues to amaze me and he has always blown me away with the finished piece. Rich is a wonderful guy, very friendly, really knows how to make you feel at ease in the chair. I will be going back for my next tattoo ideas for sure.

Yuliya Mandyuk

10/10. Would recommend.

Shana Nicole

Have gone here for all 4 of my tattoos and will continue doing so. The staff is awesome and welcoming

Rachel G

I was really impressed with Aileen's work and heard many good things from friends who got their piercings here. I got my nose pierced and am so happy how it turned out! Placement is perfect. To my amazement, it really didn't hurt. Maybe a 2 out of 10 on the pain scale. I recommend this place to anyone looking to get high quality jewelry as well.

Kristen Maple

The energy you feel the moment you walk through the door, and the unique personalities of each of the artists. I've had one tattoo each done my two of five artists, and I am amazed at how well both did. I look forward to finishing my bigger piece with Nikki, and getting another rad calf piece from Sampson.

Jeanine Hallahan

The piercer is amazing and she really knows what she is doing! I tell anyone i know to get pierced there by her!

Kim Leingang

Great customer service & very clean facility! Definitely would recommend to anyone!

Ashley Peyer

Nikki is phenomenal!

Bret Keeney

Really nice people. A clean and comfortable place where you're not made to feel out of place even if you're not in your element.

Bryan Hempstead

This shop is great, the boyz that tattoo here are great, & the two receptionists are real great. 10 out of 10 Would get tattooed again & again & again & again.

Jessica Brady

Good friends. Good times. They do awesome tattoos and piercings and they're awesome people!

Ali Norheim

I highly recommend getting tattooed here! Everyone there is super nice. I have been tattooed by Chris a couple of times, trusting him with my first really big piece, which turned out amazing. He is very talented and accommodating. I will be going back again soon!

Chris Norheim

I'm always impressed. Great artists, great customer service and atmosphere.

Tiffany Eckroth

Third tattoo at Alchemist (tatted by Sampson, Chris, and Simeon) and they are the best of the best. They are so awesome to talk to while your piece is being done, it's a great atmosphere, and the artwork is AMAZING. Definitely the place to go.

Greg Goettle

Hands down the best place to get tattooed in the state of North Dakota. I lived in Utah for a year and still ended up flying up to Bismarck just to get tattooed because I didn't trust anyone in southern Utah. I fully trust every artist there with my skin. They are all super talented and extremely nice guys. Very excited to get tattooed here in the future and will continue to go here because of the atmosphere and the wonderful people that work there.

Liz Leiss

Nikki is new to the shop but I have been seeing her for tattoos for years. I get compliments on them all the time!
