Justin is fantastic! I had a tattoo done somewhere else that was no where close to what I had asked for, wanted, or envisioned. Justin met with me to talk through what I was envisioning and then, at my scheduled appointment, completely delivered on that vision!!! He has an easy to work with demeanor and is aware that you stay comfortable and get any breaks you need. Thank you Justin!
Had a thigh piece done by Justin. He was thorough, flexible, and overall pleasant to work with. He drew up multiple options based on reference images and our discussion during the consultation. Tattoo day went well with pleasant conversation throughout the 4 hour process. Will return and would recommend to a friend.
I loved loved loved my experience at dear you. Dezi was my artist and I also love her lol. She did an AMAZING JOB I’m literally still so impressed and excited about my new tattoo. I felt like she was so honest and real. Also can’t express enough my appreciation for the atmosphere of the studio. It was super comfortable and inviting. 10/10
I had my first tattoo done by Justin (iamjuco) and couldn’t be happier with the experience! I went in for a trash polka piece on my forearm, and from start to finish the communication was clear, professional, and reassuring, and exactly what I needed for my first tattoo. The quality of the work is incredible; the detail and flow of the design are even better than I imagined, and I have already scheduled my next tattoo!!! Dear You is spotless and welcoming, and every artist I met there was genuinely friendly and approachable. If you’re looking for bold, high-quality work with an artist who listens and delivers, Justin is the real deal.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Justin. I first met him and saw his style at a tattoo convention. We then communicated via phone to discuss that tattoo i wanted. I gave him a general idea of what i wanted to memorialize my cats and let him run with the idea. What he gave me was an absolutely gorgeous and hilariously accurate tattoo of my 2 boys, Phineas and Ferb. I am so happy I trusted the process and traveled 2 hours to get the tattoo done. In general, Justin is one of the kindest humans and genuinely cared about my comfort level throughout the 6 hours. He is also light-handed which makes a big difference when you’re sitting in the chair for a long time. I will definitely travel to get tattooed by him again.
