I put $40 down for Roni to draw a sketch…
I put $40 down for Roni to draw a sketch of a mermaid tattoo. I gave her one picture for the face and another picture for the body. The sketch had the body of the picture that was to be used for the face only! She made a mistake and she refused to accept responsibility for it. Themouth was supposed to be a half smile while the original picture had a pout. She just drew curves on the edges of pouting lips, kinda like the Joker in Batman. I nicely asked her to start over, and she told me to take my pictures and go elsewhere. She was very rude, and both she and the owner Jeff refused to refund even a portion of my deposit. The picture of the face I provided was computer animated and perfectly symmetrical. Roni's sketch was glaringly asymmetrical. I chose Roni because I particularly liked 2 tattoos in her book. I later saw 1 of these 2 tattoos in a portfolio at another tattoo shop!

RUN to Hidden Hand!
Provided by Citysearch
I have had an amazing experience every time I go to this shop. Jeff Cornell is a master of his art. I receive compliments where ever I go. I've also seen Roni and Ash who are also very talented. The shop is very clean and the decor is beautiful, unlike any shop I've been to. The other artists are very friendly and the counter staff are always helpful, they even call me to remind me of my appointments. I'll never go anywhere else and I send all my friends and family here.

Talk to the hand
Provided by Citysearch
I have a decent collection of tattoos on me and have been working on my sleeve. I spent a couple days talking to artists and getting the general run around from other shops.\r \r I went into Hidden Hand tattoo because I work in the Fremont/Ballard neighborhood and I've seen the sign hanging out on the sidewalk for quite a while.\r \r There's a coffee shop and burrito stand near by to get some vital sustenance needed before getting a tattoo. I recommend eating and drinking fluids before a tattoo. It makes a difference.\r \r I went in and the counter girl was very nice and acted like she wanted my business. She introduced me to Brit Legit. He was on his way out for the day but took the time to talk to me.\r \r I wanted a hand tattoo in a certain style and he was on it. I had to reschedule for the next day but it was worth the wait. \r \r Brit showed me his design and I liked it, but wanted one thing changed. He simply smiled and made the change. I agreed on the final design and he got his station set up.\r \r He was very professional. All his needles were prepackaged and he only unwrapped them when he was ready.\r \r I normally don't like to talk to my tattooer while getting work done but Brit has a great sense of humor and talking to him was like talking to a good friend.\r \r His lines are straight and his shading is on par.\r \r I will go back to see Brit.

HIdden Hand Tattoo: A Hidden Gem
Provided by Citysearch
I love this shop. So often, the feeling I get walking into many local tattoo shops is that of judgement and snobbery; being looked up and down as the employees gauge my tattoo cred. I don't walk into a shop with the idea in mind that I want to join their club, I just want a tattoo and I want one done well. Hidden Hand is not your run-of-the-mill hipster tattoo factory, and Jeff Cornell is bar-none the most laid back shop owner I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. His wife April, who manages the front-of-house operations is a cheerful little sprite, greeting the patrons as they enter, and the atmosphere is comfy and relaxed. The walls of the shop are painted in contrasting tones and decorated with Asian sculptures, masks, fans, etc., in addition to home-grown art from all of the incredibly talented artists that make up the staff at Hidden Hand. The vibe of the shop is both peaceful and energetic - you can tell the artists all respect and enjoy working with each other, which is important to me. I don't want to walk into some dark hovel with surly artists sitting around scowling and waiting to process me like a side of beef. Unfortunately, that's exactly how many local shops feel to me. The attention to detail at this shop (from electronic booking databases to overall shop cleanliness) only hints at the passion and drive they have for what they do at Hidden Hand. Not only does the shop itself make you feel at ease but the artists are top notch. Every artist has their specialty, but these artists all seem well equipped to tackle any project; from portraiture and realism to abstract, tribal and traditional. A respected artist himself, Jeff Cornell's talent does suggest that he would know talent when he sees it and as such has staffed his shop accordingly. Great care is given to each custom piece and client relations are important... No turn 'n' burn sales pitch here. This shop doesn't waste its time trying to serve two masters (there is no jewelry for sale and there are no piercing artists), it is as the name suggests: a tattoo shop. These folks have impressed the hell out of me and it is my duty to pass that information on to you. Please check them out.

funnest thing to do in Fremont

All the Stockwell's get their ink at Hidden Hand. Someday even the smallest Stockwells will be in for some work. Jeff is the Leonardo Davinci of Seattle. He doesn't tattoo you, he creates great works of art on tapestries of skin!!!

I was tattooed by Roni last Tuesday. This was my first tattoo from Roni, and my first tattoo at Hidden Hand. Roni is an AMAZING artist, very friendly and easy to talk to. She really listened to me, got to know me, and then drew me the perfect tattoo. The shop is clean and welcoming, beautifully decorated. I'll be back soon! Come check it out for yourself.

Hidden Hand: Tattoo Utopia
Provided by Citysearch
Tattoos. A badass way to express yourself and who you are. And there's no better Place to go then Hidden Hand Tattoo in Fremont, Center of the Universe. My twin sister and I were tattoo Beginners and what a blessing it was to find Hidden Hand. Greeted with a wonderful fung shui(ed) atmosphere, sqeaky cleanliness, and 5 star service, Hidden Hand would make even the most timid tattoo hopeful, feel welcome and comforted. They are very promt to schedule appointments and answer any of your questions as well as displaying all the artist portfolios in the foyer. The tattoo process itself was a breeze. All the tattooists are gentle, keep conversation during the tattooing itself (maybe to distract from the pain... helped me buches!), and keep your best interest in mind. Having a needle dug in your skin isn't very pleasant, but my experience at Hidden Hand Tattoo sure was!! I always recommened Hidden Hand Tattoo to my friends and my twin and I are now customers for life. The countless compliments on our ink speaks for itself. \r \r PRO: Hidden Hand is my middle name baby!\r \r CON: They care too much.

brilliant tattooers
Provided by Citysearch
Jeff, Lindsey and the crew at Hidden Hand Tattoo are among the best tattooers in the greater Seattle area if not the nation. I have had more compliments on the tattoos I have gotten from Jeff than I know what to do with. The attention to detail, professionalism and over all fantastic attitude of everyone in the shop is awesome. This fact coupled with the level of brilliance in design and skill these artists offer, you simply must visit these guys if you're int he market for a tattoo.

Returning the call of the needle never sounded so good!

Tattoos, expressive forms of art that you may carry with you forever where ever you go. my twin sister and i did our homework before taking the plunge into ink. knowing Seattle as being such a diverse, and artistic city, we knew we would find a great tattoo shop that would go above and beyond our wildest dreams. we shopped around, looking at local names and local shops that we have heard refrences too, but none tickled our fancy. there was something missing, something that was worth waiting for which we didn't find yet. then, Fremont beaconed out to us, and we saw a sign for a brand new tattoo shop! as soon as we entered the doors, we were captivated by the friendly smiles that greeted us, the cleanliness, and the overall presentation of the shop. Hidden hand's motto is, ""tattoos are sacred art forms for freedom of expression and deserve the utmost respect.""(thank you and namaste). we knew, as soon as we entered that shop, that we would become customers for life! we received our tattoos literally two weeks after first entering their doors. the warmth and general care from each tattooist in the shop was so welcoming. Their comforting nature and overall love for the customer's saticfation was so humbling, i never wanted to leave! Almost everyday I get a compliment on my wonderfully crafted tattoo, which i am so proud to carry with me each and everyday. I refer ALL of my friends to Hidden Hand, saying, without a doubt in my mind, you will be overwhelmed with the amount of satisfaction you will have for your tattoo, and even that is a understatement.

Amazing artists and clean enviroment.
Provided by Citysearch
Hidden Hand Tattoo has by far some of the best talent in Seattle. I looked for an artist for years and then I stumbled upon Jeff Cornell's portfolio and was impressed from the start!! So impressed that I waited a couple of months before I could get in... only because I was getting a half sleeve. Anyway, this shop is the cleanest I have been in so far. Very professional and comfortable atmosphere. I would recommend this shop to anyone getting a new tattoo or someone looking for more work be done as the talent here is first class.\r \r -Bec\r \r
