WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS THINK

Erich designed a memorial tattoo for my dad for me and my sister, based on his favorite things. I love my tattoo and the meaning behind it, but the conversation I had with Erich I will carry with me for the rest of my life. If you want a beautiful tattoo, in an incredible environment, from an amazing human, please look no farther than Black Elk. Thank you for everything, Erich. 🧡

Very nice facilities. It was my first tattoo and I was a little nervous. But I was made to feel comfortable and it was not that painful. The art still looks as good a it did when it was first applied a year and an half ago. In the process of setting up my next appointment.

Hi Y.
Erich Daoust is an amazing artist. He was able to turn my ideas in to much more than I could've imagined. He's working on a full sleeve that shows what my life is about. The detail is on point. He really knows how to listen and get to know what each person would love to have on their skin. I highly recommend Black Elk Tattoo.
Knut C.
Erich is the best artist I've been too, and he is the first my wife went too and she refuses to go to anyone else. My wife and I went to him while he was tattooing in salt lake and now we will be taking our business out to Tooele to continue getting our work done with him. He is very professional with his work and you can tell he has been in the industry for years with his skill level. When I have anyone say they are looking for some ink Erichs name is the first one I recommend. (cephalopod is roughly 5-6 years old and still looks great)
