Client Reviews

What Clients Say

Real feedback from the Johns Island and Charleston Lowcountry community.

"Lil Round did my half-sleeve and absolutely killed it. The level of detail in the shading is unreal — I've had strangers stop me on the street to ask where I got it. Johns Island is lucky to have this studio."

Derek M.

Johns Island, SC

"I came in for a cover-up of an old tattoo I'd regretted for years. Lil Round designed something completely fresh and now you can't even tell anything was there before. Life-changing work."

Megan H.

Charleston, SC

"My first tattoo and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The studio is clean and welcoming, and Lil Round walked me through every step. The fine line work on my wrist is perfect — exactly what I wanted."

Jasmine R.

West Ashley, SC

"The realism work coming out of this studio is next level. Lil Round did a portrait of my dog that looks like a photograph — the detail in the eyes and fur is incredible. Worth every penny."
