Hotrod Tattoo

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been coming to Hot Rod Tattoo for many years, and this place continues to be as solid as ever. I actually got my first tattoo here over 20 years ago from the previous owner, Matt, and recently returned for some very meaningful memory tattoos and the experience was and is outstanding. Kelly, who is the welcoming face of the shop, and of course Randall, who did my tattoo, were both fantastic. From the moment you walk in, the customer service is welcoming, professional, and genuinely caring. The shop is incredibly clean, well-run, and has a great family atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. Randall did an amazing job bringing my vision to life with precision and talent, and you can tell the entire team truly cares about their craft and their clients. It’s rare to find a shop that combines professionalism, skill, and heart the way they do. Thank you for helping me create tattoos that carry such meaningful memories. I highly recommend Hot Rod Tattoo to anyone looking for quality work from a talented and trustworthy team.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff are all friendly and helpful. The artist I worked with was amazing and very friendly. The facility itself is clean and well laid out.

Experiencia fantástica: Hotrod Tattoo is amazing. It’s such a friendly and relaxing environment. Elena has done 4 tattoos for me now, and does excellent work that always blows past my expectations.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been going to Hotrod for a long time and every single experience is how you'd want it to go. Easy, smooth and always with a smile on the face of the staff. Recently I got 2 pieces done within a week of each other and I walked out of there happy and excited for my next visit..the above and beyond mentally of the artists working there is something you can't find anywhere else. Thank you!!

Experiencia fantástica: This is definitely one of the nicest tattoo shops I've been too. Elena is my anime tattoo artist and THE go-to color expert (honestly probably in Southern Arizona!). I will be completing an enormous leg sleeve there this month.

Experiencia fantástica: I went back to HotRod for my 2nd tattoo. I semi designed the tattoo and worked with Randall again. I love the collaboration and final product! Highly recommend HotRod and all the wonderful staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Elena has a soft touch and created a memorial tattoo using her artistic skills with my ideas we created a most excellent tattoo. Great people from the first call to post tattoo follow up. Facility is top notch with individual rooms for each artist.

Experiencia fantástica: I am in town from out of state and was looking for somewhere to get a tattoo done. Randal was awesome. Great line work, conversation, extremely fair. I couldn't recommend this place more!

Experiencia fantástica: Gene and his awesome team really know how to take care of their clients! Great experience. Highly recommend to anyone needing something that takes it to the next level! Such talent! Thanks you!

Experiencia fantástica: We love Gene at Hot Rod and will continue to go back to him for our ink. The front gals are also amazing and friendly and always have a smile and ready to help. They are always all there to listen to your story about your tattoo bug or small.

Experiencia fantástica: I've had multiple piercings and a tattoo done here. I've never been let down. They treat their clientele well and they really listen to what you want. It's a comfortable, clean space. If I could choose any place to get a piercing or tattoo, it would be here.

Experiencia fantástica: Randall Olsen is the master of tattoo atistry! He reworked my son’s memorial tattoo and the work is nothing short of a miracle transformation. I was embarrassed of the shark rendition which the original artist drilled into my forearm. I had wanted something unique as I processed the death of my 20 yr old son and I provided a picture to guide the work. The pictures tell my story best and the credit goes to the talented Randal Olsen Hotrod Tattoo in Chandler, AZ

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! I love my tattoo!!! The shop is clean, everyone is nice, and the artists are amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome Tattoo shop, best in the Valley! Gene is an artist and so is his team. Hotrod, only place for me and my family

Experiencia fantástica: Such an amazing place. I highly recommend for everyone that looking for a clean and professional place. Good job guys

Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience with Randal and love my tattoo. His clean line work, attention to detail, and artistic vision really stand out. He listened to what I wanted and made thoughtful suggestions that took the design to the next level. The process was professional and comfortable, and you can tell he truly cares about his work and clients. Highly recommend! This is my second tattoo with him now

Experiencia fantástica: I got my ears pierced and Maria was so nice and welcoming! I’ve had my ears pierced a couple times before and they had all rejected and hurt so bad. However, this time the piercing did not hurt at all! She really knew what she doing :)

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been getting tattooed by Randall for awhile now. Great artist! His line work, shading, and most importantly, his attention to detail is noticeable. I only get my tattoos by him so much that I am willing to travel to him from San Francisco.

Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience with Gene for my latest tattoo. I brought him an AI design and he made it art with his talent. During my appointment we had a very fun conversation that helped me remain calm and enjoy the experience. Gene is so friendly and talented. I will be going back to him in the future.

Experiencia fantástica: Our family absolutely loves Hotrod Tattoo. Randall is an extremely talented artist, give him an idea and he turns it into a masterpiece, every time. The staff and artists in the shop are so nice, helpful and fun to be around.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse was great, I will be returning for more ink soon, very happy with my new pieces

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at HotRod Tattoo is so friendly and their work is awesome....Would highly recommend getting your tattoos here!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Best shop, most qualified artists, absolutely LOVE HRT! My daughter had her first ear piercing at 7 years old at HRT, and has now had 6 more piercings with them. Their artists are absolutely amazing and so kind, especially Gene who is just wonderful. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the shop is always pristine. I can not say enough great things about HRT, and I recommend them all the time.

Experiencia fantástica: I love everyting about my time with Gene getting my tattoo! He was amazing and so detailed with completing my tattoo! I highly recommend Gene at Hot Rod tattoo! The best time ever getting my first tattoo! Amazing work Done ! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Gene was the best! Everything is super clean . Felt completely comfortable the entire time .

Experiencia fantástica: Randall did an excellent job on our tattoos. He was personable and listened to our needs through it all.

Experiencia fantástica: If you’re looking for someone to do your next anime tattoo, you need to see Elena! Her artwork is stunning and she will get you exactly what you’re looking for or even better! Elena is also very sweet and fun to work with. I highly recommend her for your next tattoo!

Experiencia fantástica: Gene was fantastic and did beautiful work that is exactly what I was hoping for! Cant wait to go back and see him again!

Experiencia fantástica: HotRod Tattoo is hands down amazing. I went in to get my Homer Simpson tattoo re-done with coloring, and Gene Heideman took incredible care of me from start to finish. The coloring came out awesome — clean, vibrant, and exactly what I was hoping for. When the tattoo started to hurt, Gene immediately offered numbing cream, which made the rest of the session way more enjoyable. Once we finished, he applied latex-free second skin, and that alone made the healing process so much easier and smoother. On top of that, Gene also pierced my daughter’s ears, and I can’t say enough about how patient and kind he was. She was scared at first and started crying, but once she saw her dad getting tattooed, she calmed down and felt comfortable. Now she’s already talking about coming back for her nose piercing — and she only wants HotRod Tattoo to do it. Professional, caring, and great vibes all around. Highly recommend HotRod Tattoo and Gene Heideman.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff. Very friendly and professional. Randall is an amazing tattoo artist that delivers great quality.

Experiencia fantástica: Jesse is extremely talented and a master of his craft! I will post pics when we are don’t with my sleeve!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best Tattoo/piercing place in AZ! There have done several of mine and my husbands and Gene just did my daughter’s 1st tattoo and it was just perfect!!!!! Thank you for accommodating us !!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Had the best experience with Mariah!! she made me feel super comfortable and helped me with my placement!! i love it sm the staff is also friendly :)

Experiencia fantástica: Everything was awesome. Very hygienic and professional. The tattoo turned out perfect

Experiencia fantástica: Gene is the best! Been seeing him for 14 years and always satisfied with my tattoos. The staff is very helpful and friendly as well!

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend HRT. Gene was great! He gave me a chance on a crazy head tattoo idea and brought my vision to life. He was mindful of time, cost, and balancing my expectations with what my skin could physically handle in longer sessions. The shop was very clean, well run, the staff was so nice, and Gene’s creativity and professionalism was second to none. You can tell by the vibe in this shop that everyone really cares about their craft and elevating each other. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience at Hotrod Tattoo! My tattoo artist was Destiny and she exceeded all my expectations. The room was very clean and she is highly talented. I love my thigh tattoo! I would highly recommend Destiny at Hotrod Tattoo for your artwork.

Experiencia fantástica: Always a great experience here. I refuse to allow my teens to get pierced anywhere else. Friendly staff, great environment, clean spaces, and always great with explaining how to keep their piercings clean for the best heal. We’ve gotten ears, nose, and now belly button piercings here.

Experiencia fantástica: Randall was phenomenal. He nailed my design first try and executed flawlessly. The shop ambience is its own experience. Stop by, drink it in and enjoy the merch!

Experiencia fantástica: I had an awesome experience with Gene! He was very helpful with placement on our first appointment, made sure it was what I wanted. He listened thoroughly with what I wanted the piece to look like and details and color. He made sure It came out to what I wanted it to be and more. Very friendly also and great energy all around! Definitely would go to him again!

Experiencia fantástica: Erica and Kelly were absolutely amazing getting me and my two sons in on short notice. Randall did the work and we're all extremely happy with how they turned out. Awesome guy to spend the day with getting in some ink therapy.

Experiencia fantástica: My piercer Mariah was so sweet, and my piercing looks amazing. I absolutely love it!!

Experiencia fantástica: Mariah was amazing with my daughters ear piercing. Cant recommend enough! She walked her every step of the way making sure she was comfortable.

Experiencia fantástica: While on a work trip we decided to go get tattoos and called Hotrod for availability. They were quick to get us in and absolutely loved the atmosphere there. Randall did an amazing job on my tattoo and added his own take on the color which I love. Would definitely come back to the area just to get another tattoo by him!

Experiencia fantástica: My siblings and I came in for tattoos together. The staff made us feel welcome, and were very accommodating. The time they took and the patience they had going over the sketches and adjusting so they were what was wanted was phenomenal. During the tattoos they set things up so the person in the chair was absolutely comfortable. I absolutely recommend Hotrod Tattoo if you are looking for a new tattoo.

Experiencia fantástica: HRT was wonderful from day 1! Had consultations to make sure my ideas were understood and Gene made them happen. Everyone was friendlt and made me feel welcome and comfortable. My sleeve came out better than ever expected!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome shop and artists! Super clean shop. My sibs and I all got our tattoos done same day by Gene and Randall. All our tattoos turned out amazing and we are so happy with them. A huge thank you to Kelly for helping make all the arrangements, and to Randall and Gene for our amazing tattoos. You guys are so talented! We had such a blast! Would definitely visit again for another tattoo!!

Experiencia fantástica: Elena was very friendly and a great artist to work with. A very professional shop atmosphere very friendly and tidy and very upfront about all services from deposits to after care

Experiencia fantástica: I have had 2 tattoos here, one by Jesse and one by Gene. I have my third booked this week! Beautiful clean facility and everyone I have come in contact with are very friendly and welcoming. My tattoos are fine one and both look great. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: We had made an ear piercing appointment for my 13 year-old daughter to get her second ear piercing done. The staff was extremely polite and helpful and made my daughter feel very comfortable during her appointment.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! Jesse is an amazing artist.

Experiencia fantástica: Super happy with the quality and service done by Devon at Hot Rod! The quality and attention to detail is very impressive and we are very pleased with the work done! Thank you again!!!

Experiencia fantástica: My experience with Hot Rod Tattoo was great from start to finish. My ear piercings closed during Covid from not wearing earrings for 2 years. I felt completely at ease and had a good experience. When making appointments or asking questions, the service is professional and the employees are friendly. It's clean, has a comfortable waiting room, private parking lot, and has fair prices too! Everyone who works there gets 5 starts from me!

Experiencia fantástica: I stopped By for a second nose piercing. They were so nice and they were able to get me right in. I don’t think that happens all the time so I was extremely happy that they got me in so fast. And the guy who did my piercing was so good and it hardly hurt! He was very friendly and kind. I would recommended them to anyone that wants a professional piercing!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a tattoo done by Randall and it came out great. It was a black and gray lotus flower on the outside of my left thigh. He did a great job and I’m really happy with it! Randall is super cool as well! I’m definitely planning on going back to him again for other tatts to be done!

Experiencia fantástica: We cant thank you all enough for the incredible tattoos and for accommodating all of us. The talent and patience made our experience unforgettable. We truly appreciate the dedication to your craft, the cleanliness of your environment, friendliness of staff, and the personal touch added to our designs was outstanding. We will be back soon. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough of how much I love my new tattoo. Devon did a fantastic job & his knowledge of placement & overall execution was amazing. I would definitely go back to Devon.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently got my first tattoo at Hotrod Tattoo, and the entire experience, from start to finish, was nothing short of amazing. From the moment I first inquired, Kelly made the booking process incredibly easy and walked me through every step, making me feel completely comfortable and informed. She truly made what could have been an intimidating first-time experience feel like a breeze. Gene, my tattoo artist, is an absolute wizard! I came in with an idea, and he transformed it into a stunning sketch. We then collaborated, and he tweaked the design on the fly until it was absolutely perfect. His artistic talent and ability to bring a vision to life are truly remarkable. The whole team at Hotrod Tattoo made me feel welcome and answered all of my questions with patience and expertise. The comfort and care they provided were exactly what I had hoped for. I am genuinely a customer for life and can't recommend them highly enough! If you're looking for an outstanding tattoo experience, Hotrod Tattoo is the place to go.

Experiencia fantástica: Devon was my artist. I’m so happy with what my results were. He worked with me on my design, and was very accommodating. I will be going back for more.

Experiencia fantástica: Got two tattoos done with Elena and it was the best experience ever, she’s the best. Amazing energy and the tattoos I got look so good.

Experiencia fantástica: Beautiful and realistic tattoo was rendered professionally by Elena, who was a joy to work with.

Experiencia fantástica: Devon did an amazing Job! He really listened to me and had great suggestions that made my tattoo even better. You can tell he takes pride in his work and wants you to be happy with the end results!

Experiencia fantástica: Elena did an excellent job on my Tattoo! She was very professional and helped me design the perfect tattoo. The shop, HottRod Tattoos had a very nice staff and cool clean ambiance . I will definitely be coming back for more pieces with Elena !

Experiencia fantástica: Devon did a fantastic job on my daughter and my tattoo - they turned out beautifully! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Hotrod fit all 3 of us, we closed the place down! Devon rocked it and was patient with our requests!! Would recommend, everything was very clean !

Experiencia fantástica: Dev you did a great job and I will definitely return for your services in the future.

Experiencia fantástica: Devon was fantastic! He took care of my mom, sister, and myself - took his time, answered questions, adjusted the design for us, and never made us feel rushed. His work was great and his knowledge was awesome. We would ALL definitely see him again!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a great, clean shop! Gene was a blast to hang out with and did a great job with our tattoos. Price was right. A+

Experiencia fantástica: My wife got a fantastic tattoo from Ryan, I highly recommend this place! Very clean and professional!

Experiencia fantástica: This place is awesome. Super welcoming and friendly. I dont want to say Chuy is the best and then he get super booked out and hard to get in. But he deserves the credit, hes fantastic.

Experiencia fantástica: Cannot, & I truly mean CANNOT express how amazing Colleen is. If you’re anywhere near Chandler (or if you’re not lol), I HIGHLY recommend looking no further for your piercing needs. The customer service is impeccable and worth your while. & I work in a field where customer service is mandatory and if my employees don’t give it… I write them up and/or fire them. I thrive off it and make sure they make sure it’s their number one priority as well. COLLEEN IS WHERE ITS AT, not to mention, her work is outstanding. Imma big adult baby so she makes you feel comfortable if you’re like me. I will bring my daughter here for her piercings, and get all my future piercings here that I wasn’t even thinking about just bc of how great she was. THANK YOU.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to get a tattoo. Very clean and professional place with a lot of artists to choose from! My wife and I go here and our artists are Chuy and Gene. Great staffing overall and very accommodating with scheduling and planning tattoos

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been coming here for my last 3 piercings. Colleen is the absolute best and you can tell she cares about you. She always remembers our last conversation and you can just tell she enjoys her job. She overall makes it a good experience for me. I am definitely going to go to her for the rest of the piercings I want!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing experience! Sterile, clean place that just felt right. Brian Hall was my artist. He took the time to learn the back story of my design and he made it better. We just vibed and listened to music while he worked.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Hotrod Tattoo for years! They are very professional, clean, friendly, and knowledgeable. I would recommend Hotrod if you are interested in getting a tattoo. Do your research, see who the best artist is for you, and schedule a consultation. They are great people to work with.

Experiencia fantástica: I will NEVER go to another tattoo or piercing establishment after visiting Hot Rod Tattoo! After plans to get my daughter's birthday piercing failed with another shop, this establishment saved the day! Keeley was so friendly and accommodating. She was able to get us scheduled in a timely manner and was an absolute joy to work with. Upon returning the next day for our appointment, my daughter and I just fell in love with Colleen, the piercing technician. She is phenomenal with young adults! Being a mom herself, she made my daughter feel so comfortable and at ease. Colleen made sure that every detail was discussed and that this experience was super memorable (in a good way). Not to mention that we were super impressed with how clean, organized, and professional this shop was. Thank you a million times over, Colleen and Keeley, for turning a cruddy let-down into one of the best birthday experiences ever! You two are freaking amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Go see Brian Hall for an exceptional tattoo experience! An artist and a professional. My daughter, granddaughter, and sister each got a tattoo and got to enjoy our time together. So kind and thoughtful, and funny.

Experiencia fantástica: My fiancé and I spontaneously decided to celebrate our anniversary by getting tattoos. The customer service was exceptional. Mario was the artist we were paired with and he was really nice and executed our designs to perfection. Highly recommend this tattoo shop. It’s clean with great vibes.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going here since I got my first tattoo and Mario Lowmen has been consistently breaking my expectations through his work, he has a creative output and has been my only and go to artist since I first got a tattoo, I’ve been to other tattoo shops but hotrod has always been very cooperative and caring about customers, I thank Hotrod and Mario for the best care and highest grade of of work!

Experiencia fantástica: Have been here a couple of times with my daughters to get piercings done. Staff are friendly and attentive. Nice atmosphere and fair pricing for professional work. Definitely recommend 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: HRT is amazing and I would absolutely recommend to anyone interested in getting a tattoo or piercing. The staff is so friendly, everything is so clean! Colleen pierced my ears today and she was so kind and professional. Will absolutely be back in the future :-)

Experiencia fantástica: The atmosphere is great. Had an awesome piercing experience with Colleen Hall, she was very thorough and very personable. I would definitely recommend your next piercing with her!

Experiencia fantástica: Top notch quality work….patience to wait weeks to months for an appointment pays off in amazing results! Gene and Jessie are the tattoo artists I’ve been seeing. Gene for his special ability to do amazing color, repair other tattoo and cover up work and Jessie for his photo realism. These are detailed tattoos and you only see these guys if you have complicated art projects on your body you want done right! I’m very happy! Still have more to do with Gene on my back piece but progress is amazing.

Experiencia fantástica: Always a great experience. Very clean, friendly, and professional. Chuy does amazing work and is always so humble about his talent. Have been coming here for years and will continue to do so.

Experiencia fantástica: Set an appointment last year for this spot. I was assigned to Gene. The shop has a very cool vibe. Very clean. Had a great experience. Gene did a great job. Very professional. I love my new ink!! Thank you!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Nice staff, great artists! Highly recommended. These tattoo artists are true artists, trust them with your ideas and they will make them even better with their vision!

Experiencia fantástica: Brain Hall squeezed me in while I was in town and I am so extremely grateful he did! I can't stop looking at my tattoo! He did an AMAZING job!!!

Experiencia fantástica: HRT is the only tattoo shop I will go too. Jesse Kube has done 5 out of my 6 tattoos and will be the only artist I will ever use again. The office staff is always super friendly and nice. Cannot recommend HRT enough.

Experiencia fantástica: Mario did a fantastic job on my tattoo. I went in for more detail from a previous tattoo and he added detail and shading that made the art look much better. It's exactly what I wanted. Very professional and talented. I would highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: All of the staff are super nice and friendly. I know all of their artists are amazing at what they do, but Gene always provides a phenomenal experience when he's working on you. Great person to chat with, stupendous artist, and you can see the passion in all of his work. Only place I'll go for any of my tattoo needs
