5*****! The shop is everything I want my house to look like—the giant gummy bears, Power Puff Girl art on the walls, cool stickers, keychains for sale, and spooky mashup paintings. Amazing. Alex is wonderful. I get so many compliments on my tattoos and all the sparkle dots! I’ve been tattooed here twice and can’t recommend it enough. Whil

While it might be out of the way, that Uber ride is so worth it!

You’re my first tattoo with a woman and in a single artist tattoo studio and I never want to go back to the old way. You’re somehow suuuuper talented AND fast.

You’re my first tattoo with a woman and in a single artist tattoo studio and I never want to go back to the old way. You’re somehow suuuuper talented AND fast. Even with a custom design I was amazed how quickly I had a piece of art on my arm. I definitely see myself getting a tattoo from your yearly if possible for as many years as you’re still tattooing. I really like talking to you and your vibe is super chill, you give space to your clients to be themselves and I felt super comfortable both times I was there. I wouldn’t change a thing - I love your space and the way you do the forms. The whole process of getting a tattoo from you was easy and fun! 10 out of 10 experience all around and I get compliments at least 1x per week on my tattoos done by you so I get a return on my investment constantly

I've gotten 2 tattoos by Alex, 1 was many years ago back when she was at Dolorosa and 1 more recently at her private studio in Vegas! I love both tattoos and they've both healed amazingly! Even the older one thats at least 10 years old still looks beautiful and vibrant. My experience both times were lovely as well <3 I can be really shy a

I've gotten 2 tattoos by Alex, 1 was many years ago back when she was at Dolorosa and 1 more recently at her private studio in Vegas! I love both tattoos and they've both healed amazingly! Even the older one thats at least 10 years old still looks beautiful and vibrant. My experience both times were lovely as well <3 I can be really shy and socially anxious so sometimes getting tattoos is stressful for me, but Alex is super nice and easy to be around, so I didn't feel awkward at all. And her private studio is such a cute and welcoming space! I definitely hope to get more tattoos from her!!

Alex is the best tattoo artist I have ever had! I have several tattoos by her (an entire arm’s worth) and can’t wait to get more from her! She’s so sweet and has a gentle hand. All of the tattoos she’s done have healed perfectly and look amazing years later! Some of the tattoos I have are 5 years old and look fresh. Her shop is super clea

It’s private which is an amazing bonus bc you don’t have randoms walking in/out every five seconds. She is always on time and doesn’t take breaks unless you need one. She’s also extremely fair with pricing and will touch up anything that’s needed at no charge (within a certain time frame - see her faq). Alex is awesome for sure! Thanks, Alex! ♥︎

5 stars forever an ever! Alex is absolutely my favorite tattoo artist I've ever had. She's gone above and beyond to give me not only exactly what I want but in the cleanest studios. she's always on time with everything set up and already ok'd with you beforehand design. I think maybe only placement takes time which is vital. Alex has created once in a lifetime memorial pieces i could've only entrusted with her. Then she brought to life my crazy beavis and butthead piece like no other. She's not heavy handed either in fact in comparison She's very gentle imo. Here's the best part, she's a really nice person! In a world full of horrors she's amazing and kind. So treat yourself with a piece of artwork that will get you stopped on the street with a "Hey is that an Alex Strangler!?!?" I mean ypu could be so lucky!!

Alex has always been a bucket list tattoo dream of mine. I finally got a chance to get some of her art inked on my thigh late last year. It was all I could have hoped for and more! She is the BEST! If I lived closer I would be getting so many more. First of all the studio has immaculate vibes. It’s like the coolest most comfortable hangou

Alex has always been a bucket list tattoo dream of mine. I finally got a chance to get some of her art inked on my thigh late last year. It was all I could have hoped for and more! She is the BEST! If I lived closer I would be getting so many more. First of all the studio has immaculate vibes. It’s like the coolest most comfortable hangout ever. I couldn’t stop taking pictures for my Instagram. The tattoo experience was one of the best. I was pretty flinchy but she was super professional and chill about the whole thing. It turned out amazing. I’m so impressed with the whole experience and the quality of work!

5 stars!!! I now have 4 tattoos from Alex and I'm obsessed with all of them. Her work is so freaking cute and all the tattoos I've gotten make me so happy. The booking process was super smooth! Appointments are always so quick as Alex is very efficient. The studio is lovely and just what you would expect, cute, pink, clean, comfy. One time she had Mindy Project on which I loved and another appointment had 80s music, both of which made it easy to zone out for a bit to get my new body

I flew in from Canada to get tattooed by Alex. Of course my flight had multiple delays leading to arriving to the airport hours later than anticipated. Alex was kind, understanding and flexible. She hooked me up with some extra supplies to ensure my work would stay in good shape over the next few days at a festival. Alex’s work is amazing

Infinity Stars Experience. The appointment process was seamless. Availability sent out on a regular basis with updated designs & ability to get custom designs-3 total so far for me. The studio is impeccably clean & cute. The communication is amazing-had an idea for a custom design and the outcome(updated to look better) was perfection. Was able to watch Beetlejuice during my last tattoo & the other two there was something to watch to distract me during the tattoo process. From beginning to end there is no one else I would get any future tattoos with. Bonus points for also having the cutest merch-online and i the studio.

5 stars all the way!! Alex is incredibly talented and very experienced. Her studio is impeccably clean and filled with art. She is prepared with designs and is easy to work with and schedule. She uses high quality ink and will custom blend colors to get you the perfect shade. I have at least 14 tattoos from her and they are always praised

Definitely my favorite tattoo artist and will continue to book her!

I’ve gotten two tattoos from Alex. One, I won in a raffle. The other one I got as a memorial to my son. I love her studio it is clean and Set up adorably. She’s very professional.

I’ve never spent time with another tattoo artist where I felt so comfortable this coming from a girl, who has numerous tattoos, and have been getting tattooed over 20 years. Thank you Alex for always being so professional, so sweet, so kind and just downright cool!

I’ve been getting tattooed by Alex for years now. I have never been more proud of anything on my body as I am of my tattoos she’s done. Alex is absolutely amazing at tattooing.

I’ve been getting tattooed by Alex for years now. I have never been more proud of anything on my body as I am of my tattoos she’s done. Alex is absolutely amazing at tattooing. I can’t speak highly enough about her. I give everyone her information whenever they ask me and I get stopped all the time over her work. My visits to her are always worthwhile. I commute all the way from Los Angeles to see her in Las Vegas and I will do it 100 times over. She’s always ready for me when I arrive and there’s no mumbo-jumbo. It gets done and I go home. It’s safe and I always feel comfortable. She’s worth it!!!

5 stars ++ Absolutely the cleanest, most peaceful tattoo or piercing studio I've ever been to. Delightfully nowhere near The Strip or the chaos of that area. Professional, efficient, welcoming and beautiful studio. Alex designed me the most gorgeous tribute to my friend who passed away based loosely on my very non-beautiful sketch. She ad

5 stars ++ Absolutely the cleanest, most peaceful tattoo or piercing studio I've ever been to. Delightfully nowhere near The Strip or the chaos of that area. Professional, efficient, welcoming and beautiful studio. Alex designed me the most gorgeous tribute to my friend who passed away based loosely on my very non-beautiful sketch. She adapted it in ways that were meaningful to me, and extremely worth the $$ for a custom design. People constantly stop me and ask about it because they've never seen coloration or an aesthetic like it. 100% will be back!

I was one of the luckiest people ever and managed to get a spot for a rework on a Pusheen tattoo that I’ve hated since it got done, and then it got infected healing horrifically. For years my dream artist to fix it was Alex and the moment she said she wanted to do reworks I jumped on it!! I flew from LA to Vegas and was in awe of the shop

I was one of the luckiest people ever and managed to get a spot for a rework on a Pusheen tattoo that I’ve hated since it got done, and then it got infected healing horrifically. For years my dream artist to fix it was Alex and the moment she said she wanted to do reworks I jumped on it!! I flew from LA to Vegas and was in awe of the shop - it was so clean, yet so warm and fun and covered in so many fun things to look at. Her set up was one of the most clean and professional I’ve experienced as I’ve had everything from a stack of folding chairs at a convention to guest spots in other shops to solo studios. I loved that the area was nice and open yet cozy and I felt super comfortable. Her work was amazing and she managed to make some changes that weren’t that big but changed the entire vibe of the tattoo and made it exactly what I always wanted it to be! The aftercare products she uses are also wonderful and the second skin is the most gentle I’ve used, and having an adhesive sensitivity I really appreciated her using a brand that is so skin friendly and wonderful. She had no problem with me checking in frequently to get her opinion on my healing because I do have skin issues that can cause issues and I felt totally comfortable speaking with her about everything when I needed to. I literally cannot wait until I can get back and even though she’s in Vegas and I’m in LA I have found the artist for pretty much here on out who will do my tattoos because Alex can’t be topped!

She’s always ready and prepared and has no problem if you need to make an edit or haven’t quite decided where you want your tattoo. Her studio is also so cool and a great distraction while you’re getting tattooed. If I lived in Vegas she would be my tattoo artist every time I got tatted.

The best tattoos I have ever gotten have been from Alex. She's thoughtful, kind, compassionate and a seriously amazing artist! She's a master of the trade an I will always keep a special place in my heart for her. ALSO imo she started the small dots as a glitter look. ⊹₊

Response from Alex: Carrie! Thanks so much for the amazing review and your kind words! It means a lot to know you're happy with your tattoos!  Just a quick note, while I truly appreciate your compliment, I have to give credit where credit's due...my friend Rachel Baldwin in Liverpool, England is one of the first that I remember that was doing glitter dots. Those glitter dots have taken over though!
