I have so many problems with Island Ink, it's hard to figure out where to begin.
Okay. First of all, it used to be a great shop. Really, a wonderful shop... friendly artists, a great environment, well lit, clean, etc. I could go on and on about how it used to be. But it took a nosedive a while ago, when the shop was sold to a mainlander who looks at it strictly as a cash cow. He brought in a super d****ebag named Frankie to manage it. Frankie and his super-s****.> I personally have friends who suffered agony at the hands of the scratchers who have moved in, recieving a harsh lesson in choosing your tattooist wisely.
I have been physically threatened by uber-d****e frankie and have gotten a mean stink-eye from his girlfriend on numerous occasions.
as of now:
Frankie and said girlfriend are currently living in the shop. this means they sleep and do god knows what slimy-else on the couches in the waiting room.
they employ a crackhead who has stolen equipment from others on the island and does such horrible tattoos that he keeps other island artists busy correcting his screw ups.
their "piercer" is a no-good braindead hippy who has NO TRAINING WHATSOEVER.
they have completely alienated the shops' loyal clientele and the majority of the tattoo community on maui.
they are having frankies no-talent girl tattoo people FOR MONEY (an apprentice tattooing for money? twilight zone? bizarro world?) and are ADVERTISING SUCH SERVICES IN THE COMMUNITY!!!!!
What was once a marvelous and harmonious place to go is now an ugly and unsanitary place where you can pay top dollar for a crappy prison tattoo.
