I heard of Taija from a random person and loved their work. I have been looking for someone that does water color really well. I loved her design and the tattoo looked just like the drawing. I have a tattoo that I want her to fix and a back piece to finish. I also plan to get some other work done by Taija. She is very sweet and made the changes I asked without a problem. I love the low lighting and mellow atmosphere almost as if you were in a spa. I have many tattoos and been to many shops and this by far was my favorite because it was so relaxing which is very different.

I went in for a coverup and met with Johnny. He came up with an amazing design, way better than I would have imagined. I came back in for my actual tattoo and three hours later I walked out with an amazing piece of artwork. Johnny was very professional, made me feel comfortable and worked well with me. I can’t wait to go back!

Not only does this shop offer a wicked cool vibe but it shows you the talent offered there as soon as you walk in. The walls showcase these artists are really that… artists. My best friend and I were on a road trip from Seattle to Phoenix and knew that the tattoo we had talked about for months was perfect way to end it. We called all through out California and was told ridiculous things. So looking at Phoenix shops and seeing the positive reviews for OM? We had to call. Tajsa and Phoenix drew up what we wanted, they were quick, clean and I know my friend who now lives there? Will be back. Days after I still love it and it is healing well. Thank you for such an awesome experience. You guys rock!

I got my nipples pierced about two weeks ago by Marah and she was amazing. She talked to me like we were friends and made me laugh the whole time. Even though the piercing itself hurt like hell I am so happy I chose Om Ink.

Don’t ask me how I actually found Om Ink Gallery; somewhere online… I got my second(Which is a gecko with hawaiian plants) and third tattoo(HP deathly Hallows) done by Taija Gauthier; both visits were fun. Each time when I get asked about my tattoos, I tell them that I got it done at Om Ink Gallery by Taija. I even refer my coworkers to this shop. I am wanting more tattoos and I know I can count on Taija to hook me up with amazing art. As for the shop, it’s 100% clean and all of the tools were sterile.

After doing some research here on Unilocal I picked OM Ink Gallery for my spur of the moment small tattoo. While there I talked to the owner Duane, he was VERYVERY professional and kind, about a large tattoo I had been wanting for a while. He explained some things to me and I ended up setting up an appointment with him for another tattoo another day. This shop is VERY clean and the prices are reasonable for the work.

Absolutely love this place! I had my nipples and vch pierced by Marah. I even went back to stretch my vch and Duane was happy to help me! I have absolutely no complaints. They are all very professional and courteous! And the shop itself was very clean. Will definitely be going back!

The only thing I hate about this place is I found it about 15 tattoos later and they have the most talented tattoo artist I’ve ever seen. I’ve been through all of Arizona from Glendale to Jerome and these people have the most talented bunch. I get CRAZY compliments from the sleeve in getting worked on by Ivan and have a lot of work planned out from Duane. I’m just saying if you want the best go here, I’m even getting old work touched up and a cover up because their style out rides the work I already got from different shops. I will ONLYBE going here from now on. WARNING: IFYOUGETYOURTATHEREPEOPLEWILLSTOPYOUTOADMIRETHEMALLTHETIME ;)

Decided to take the plunge and get my nose pierced. Checked Unilocal and this place was not only right by my place, it had the best reviews, so I went in. The shop itself is very clean and Marah was incredibly helpful. The whole process was painless(she’s fast and efficient!) and she was so accomodating to let my friends come in and watch. The extra $ 10 off Unilocal coupon only sweetened the deal. I will DEFINITELY go back and see Marah when it’s time to get my triple front helix piercings. I have no experience with any tattoos here but everyone was nice and helpful and it was STERILE. I have no problem recommending this shop!

I love this shop! It is the most professional and cleanest shop I’ve ever been in. All the artists are super friendly and welcoming when you come in. My artist Taija is amazing. I came in to have a previous tattoo covered and 3 other artists from other shops said they wouldn’t touch it, she covered it no problem and it looks so beautiful. My husband even got an amazing eagle by Duane. Both are amazing artist and this is definitely the shop to go to if you want beautiful quality work!

Researched lots of piercing shops as I wanted a place with a sterile environment, knowledgeable piercer, and someone to make me feel comfortable. Om Ink was just what I was looking for. Talked to Marah on the phone for a while before stopping in. She was very polite and took the time to answer all of my questions. When I arrived, I met Marah and she was just as sweet as she was over the phone. I went into the room, she explained what was going to happen, and pierced my tragus and double helix quickly and as comfortably as it gets(it is a piercing, lol). I am definitely coming back to see Marah if I decide to get any more piercings in the future. I recommend this shop to everyone!

Came in for some odd piercings… a fellow by the name of Dwayne was kind enough to help me. He was so calming, as i was a nervous wreck. These were not my first piercings but they were more personal ones, so I was literally about to poop my pants. Halfway through the procedure, I passed out with the needle still in me. Dwayne woke me up, reassured me with water and a jolly rancher, took the time with me. hours of no eating and no sleep + pain = lights out. I was thankful Dwayne was quick and very professional. I’ve had my nose and ears pierced here before with no pain at all; plus everyone is truly talented tattoo-wise. Great experience! Thanks Dwayne!

Taija, Duane, & Marah Rock. Beautiful tattoos & great piercing in the cleanest & best shop in the valley! Taija has tattooed 3 generations of my family(daughter, my sister, me, and my Mom). All 6 of my tattoos are done by Taija!

Om Ink Gallery and the artists/owner there have been the most professional, courteous, talented group of artists I’ve had the pleasure to work with. I’ve been going to Duane and Taija for over 6 years now… This is due to a great first impression… no big ego’s, no uncomfortable exchanges… Just great ideas, thoughts and art.(That is how you run a business) I appreciate them and tell ANYONE I know to visit the shop to brainstorm ideas for great tattoos. I have work from both Duane and Taija, and the line work, colors, and durability over time is noticed… Thanks guys!

Duane & Taija are amazing. I have been going to them for 5 years and would never stray. They run a very clean and professional shop, have great talent and surround themselves with great talent as well. Also very personable, fun, open people to be around, which I appreciate greatly. Not like other shops I’ve been to with some what rude and short artists. Duane pretty much owns my arms and I can’t wait to go back and get them finished!
