I can't believe some of the rants on here about Nathan's Anthem. I had a simple tattoo done about a year ago by Ken. It turned out great and still looks awesome today. He was very nice and not at all condescending to a newbie like myself. He explained the aftercare very thoroughly. I work for the State Department of Health, and I was also blown away by the visible cleanliness (can't really tell how sterile anything is without testing). I am planning on going back for a more complicated tattoo later this month, and I have no reservations about Nathan's Tattoos. My wife also had a a piercing done there, and while it cost a little more, she said that the guy who did it was by far the most knwoledgeable, friendly, and helpfull piercer she has ever used. She's also thinking about another piercing and possibly a tattoo. She wouldn't go anywhere else than Nathan's, and she is a total cleanliness freak.
