  • “From the moment you step into Earthbound Ink, there is an overwhelming feeling of peace and tranquility. The space is cozy country cottage meets fairy castle. You can tell each component of the space is carefully curated and all of the products used, intentional. Amber, the owner and phenomenal tattoo artist- took my tattoo design and made it so much better. She is so exceptionally skilled and she has this deeply calming presence. I’m obsessed with my new tattoo and know that I’ve found my new tattoo home. 10/10 recommend”

  • “ I got my first tattoo done here by Amber, and I'm exceedingly happy with how everything went. The shop is beautiful, clean, inviting, whole nine yards. Amber did a great job, every time I look at the tattoo I'm more amazed by how clean and detailed they got it. They were also very helpful with it being my first tattoo, they walked me through everything and made it a comfortable experience. The tattooing hurt, naturally, but not too bad and it went really smoothly. Absolutely recommend !”
