Experiencia fantástica: Jesse and the artists at Empire are fantastic! He is able to take abstract ideas and put them into form regardless of how complicated or challenging.

Experiencia fantástica: Best tattoo experience I’ve had yet! Javier was EXTREMELY communicative once we placed our deposit online. The shop was very clean. He was exceptionally professional yet very very personable. Javier genuinely cared about the deep meaning behind our tattoo art, and wanted to know the story behind them.

We very highly recommend this shop, and specially Javier, the artist.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse is the best at his craft. clean, professional, and a great communicator. not to mention, his work is beautiful.

Experiencia fantástica: At the last minute Jesse was able to get me booked in. Very reliable, relaxing, and chill vibes. He took instruction very well.

But, in the mean time I'm writing this review cause yeah.. :) his work isss good. Hit him up! <3

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse is a great artist! He has designed my entire sleeve and the work is high quality. He makes scheduling easy and always ensures that you leave his shop satisfied

Experiencia fantástica: I have received a couple tattoos from Jesse. The work is amazing! I came to him with an idea for a couples tattoo but couldn't find inspiration. He listened to what I wanted and drew it up exactly the way I was imagining! Great work and great customer service. Will definitely be coming for more tattoos!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been going to Jesse Priest, the owner, for more than 15 yrs, He is the Only Artist I will let put permanent ink in my skin ☺️ his shop is Always Clean, Safe, and Welcoming. Every artist I've seen that works there is doing amazing custom pieces. No Doubt No Regrets, The Best In Springs.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse was able to get me in same day and his art surpassed my expectations! He gave me my new favorite tattoo!

Experiencia fantástica: Been having a rough go at life lately and needed some ink therapy. Called into empire to see about walk-in availability and Jesse hooked me up same day for a decent price.

Experiencia fantástica: Javier was amazing! He was very professional and fun and the quality of his work is excellent. I can't wait to go back!

Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience at Empire Tattoo Co. Jessie Priest did a fantastic job on my tattoo. He was very friendly, attentive, and creative. He listened to what I wanted and came up with a beautiful design that exceeded my expectations. The tattoo was done with great skill and precision, and it healed very well. I love how it looks and I get compliments all the time. I highly recommend Jessie Priest and Empire Tattoo Co. to anyone looking for a high-quality tattoo. Thank you so much!

Experiencia fantástica: I see so many people praise Jesse for being an amazing artist , I one day hope to receive work from him , possibly start the horror film theme on my thigh and leg sleeve.

Experiencia fantástica: Last year Jesse was able to get me in for a couple of sessions to finish up a phoenix on my arm that someone out of state had started years back. He did a phenomenal job with the color work and really brought my sleeve and my bird to life. I have more plans to finish up a couple of empty spots on my sleeve and plan on getting a large back piece. I won’t go anywhere else! He’s great, the shop is very clean and so is Jesse’s work. Pictures just doesn’t do it justice.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse is my go to artist. I’ve known him for years and he’s done a few of my tattoos as well as my fiancé. I refer everyone I know to him. Jesse ALWAYS does quality work and at a great price. I appreciate his attention to detail. My experience with the shop has always been great. Everyone is so welcoming and professional. The shop is very clean and the environment overall very chill and relaxing. Would recommend to anyone looking for quality work with any of their artists.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse did my husband's tattoo, his very first tattoo, did amazing as usual. Then did some added designs to my arm with a clock on my arm. My favorite artist, always comes though. Love the ship vibes, love his vibes and his attention to detail. Always does amazing pieces that he shows on FB. Definitely will be coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: I personally haven't gotten a tattoo just yet at this location. However, I have had my eye on Jesse work for a few months now. I am very impressed with his art and talents. He was very responsive and attentive when we did communicate about what I wanted. He was ready to throw down some ink. Just location was it for me( 2hours away). Although maybe I just need him to finish up my last few tatts I want. I've been keeping my eye on him. I will be in the Springs this Saturday, unexpectedly but will be fun. Maybe stop for a tattoo too lol jp, stay blessed

Experiencia fantástica: Hands down one of the top tier tattoo artists here in Colorado Springs.. if not the entire state of Colorado… Jesse is very versatile and takes care of his clients and has some inane creativity..!! His work speaks for itself and can only be truly looked at as hard work, love for the passion and true dedication to his career.

Experiencia fantástica: I love that Jesse knew not to tattoo over moles. I went to get matching tattos with my mom and the way he drew the tattoo out left it open for my daughter to get the matching one when she gets older. The water color splatter is definitely on point. Highly recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse did this piece for me and I am so happy with it! The shop was super clean with a big off-street parking lot which was nice! My husband used a different artist and his piece looks just as good. I can’t wait to go back!

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience. Good work and awesome time. Great ideas for what you want. Looking to go back soon for my dude Javier!!! Looking forward to coming back & I'm from N Louisiana. Go see my dude. Great work.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a 8 hours long sesh with Cory(Mr. Blankets) and went great, I had sent in a picture of what I wanted and how I wanted to change it and by the time I showed up he already had it laid out basically ready to go and listened to what I wanted.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse is a great artist! I was so grateful he was willing to come in on his day off after another artist (different shop) canceled on me. He was willing to work with me and give me a great piece. I receive compliments daily and definitely recommend Jesse for your tattoo.

Experiencia fantástica: Javier is amazing!!! He did my entire stomach and part of my hip. I haven’t finished the piece yet but it’s going to look even more incredible with color!

Experiencia fantástica: I have had three of my five tattoos done here and would highly recommend them! Jesse has done two of them - a treble clef and a cross with a rose. Cassidy did my most recent one - the healthcare/medical symbol. The shop is clean and neat and the guys that work here are cool people.

Experiencia fantástica: Ive never had a bad expirence javier has done awsome on all the tats hes given i highly recommend goin to Javier for a tattoo

Experiencia fantástica: Javier has done my last 4 tattoos. His line work is perfection. My daughter has at least 10 done by him. He’s amazing at his craft and I love his attention to detail and always coming through with exactly what I ask for. Definitely recommend Javier at Empire tattoo.

Experiencia fantástica: The entire experience was 10/10. Jesse is an amazing artist and very personable and professional. His work speaks for itself.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse does beautiful and quality work, he designed and performed my first tattoo and did an absolutely amazing job. Clean and friendly atmosphere. Definitely understanding and patient. Would recommend to anyone I know!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent shop. Couldn't be happier with the tattoos from Mr. Scary. They scheduled me in on short notice and stayed late to get my wife a tattoo as well. Awesome place, awesome people.

Experiencia fantástica: I thoroughly enjoyed my tattoo experience at Empire!! Jesse brought my vision to life even better than I’d hoped anyone could. The environment was relaxed and immediately put me at ease (I was a little scared for my first color/solid ink tattoo!). The other artists popped in occasionally and complimented my idea/Jesse’s work which made me feel even more confident! The aftercare/process of a traditional/neo-traditional tattoo was explained so well. Also, if you’re socially anxious like me, I can confirm everyone there was the perfect amount of “chatty.” It felt friendly/familiar but never like I was worried about filling awkward silence. I will absolutely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Clean easy to find and great artists. Happy friendly vibrations. Cassidy did a killer job on my arm! Andrew hand non the less! Amazing! I'm definitely going back for my next tat. Five out of five stars! Hanks again Cassidy!

Experiencia fantástica: This has been the best tattoo shop I have been to by far. Jesse is amazing and has a great profession manner. He made me feel comfortable and welcome during the whole session. This will definitely be my go to place for all my tattoo needs. Thanks again Jesse for helping me to bring my brother's memorial piece to life.

Experiencia fantástica: Empire tattoos was great and I would recommend checking this place out! I walked in and was able to get tattooed that day. The shop owner was kind, welcoming, and talked me through the whole process before we started and gladly answered every question I had. Unfortunately I was just visiting Colorado, otherwise I would definitely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: This is hands down the best tattoo place I have ever been to! Everyone is simply the sweetest, and most welcoming folks you’ll ever meet! From just walking in with an idea, I was able to leave with two wonderful, and almost painless, tattoos! I would recommend this place to anybody looking for some highly skilled and talented artists to do their next tat!

Experiencia fantástica: I had been looking all day for someone to tat my son up with a simple cross on his finger. With him being 17 everyone said NO, I called Empire and they did not hesitate. They got us in and out in no time and the tat was absolutely beautiful. Thank you for making my son’s day the 4 hour drive was worth it!!

Experiencia fantástica: Cassidy is absolutely amazing at what he does! He’s the only person my mom and I will go to for tattoos! Gave my mom an amazing thigh piece that won a prize and covered up one of my terrible pieces with a tattoo that I’m absolutely in love with! He also makes you very comfortable and makes your experience very easy and fun! Will always refer him to my friends!

Experiencia fantástica: Cassidy has done several of my tattoos. They have held up beautifully over the years. I now live on the other side of the country and would travel to get inked by him again.

Experiencia fantástica: Cassidy is a great artist and was my first ever tattoo artist. He customer designed a tattoo and it came out better than I imagined. Would and have recommended to many friends

Experiencia fantástica: Cassidy is amazing. I have multiple tattoo from him and they are all superb. He really takes into consideration the client’s desire and then makes it even more beautiful. Thanks Cass for all you do!!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: ️‍ ️‍⚧️ friendly, A+ service. Fair pricing. My wife and I walked in on a whim and were met with the incredibly pleasant Auna who quickly took our request for matching 's (with slight shading choice differences). She did an amazing job and were so in love with her work. She was also soooo much fun to talk to, it almost felt more like chatting with an old friend rather than a tattoo session. Thank you for the amazing memories!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Best shop in town, with the most experience artists Thank you Nick for working on full sleeve for me! Love it. See you in 2 weeks for next sleeve

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely love my experiences here! Everyone is very respectful, friendly, and a blast to be around! My husband and I go in monthly, and have been for close to a year. Highly recommend for quality work!

Experiencia fantástica: Loving my tattoos. It was my first time to get my tattoo and my tattoo artist made me felt comfortable. We created conversations and I was surprised about how fast time flew. This made me want to get more tattoos because of the talent and professionalism this place have. It wasn't even painful and he answered every question I have. Also, respond time with them is very quick and they answered all my questions. The place is also so clean and friendly.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse Priest was my artist and he was very accommodating and friendly. He managed to fit me into his schedule with my sister for my short visit to Colorado Springs.

Experiencia fantástica: I am exceptionally pleased with the work Danny was able to do. This was my very first tattoo, and I decided to get it on my ribs. Despite all my squirming and twitching from the pain, Danny was very patient with me and was able to make it look really good. 10/10 recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: First impressions of the place.. really really clean.. I mean we’re talking spotless. The guy at the front looked at my ID (I’m horrible about remembering names but you’re awesome if you’re reading this). Really chill environment, I met Nic. He was finishing up a client when I walked in which is 10000% okay, I came in early lol. Nic and I clicked instantly. I saw his studio area (everything’s open which is cool cause you don’t feel restricted and claustrophobic). He was super quick on getting the placement and stencil. He placed it PERFECTLY. The tattoo took 2 hours, hurt like a mother trucker too in some spots. He was very understanding and so chill, we joked. I honestly loved talking to Nic and his apprentice. Very very amazing people. Nic is EXTREMELY talented. He delivered what I wanted and more in the tattoo that I got. This tattoo is symbolic to me.. and he just perfected it. On the car ride home I almost cried because he just did it exactly how I wanted it to. I definitely recommend Nic, or any other artist in this tattoo studio. They all have talent. I got to experience Nic, and he’s.. wow. This was my first tattoo, and he gave me such an amazing experience. Thank you Nic for giving me a piece of love and sentimental value to carry around with me until the rest of my days :).
