BEST TATTOO PHILOSOPHY
Happy Valley Tattoo Parlor

American Fork’s one and only Happy Valley Tattoo Parlor might not have the world’s most renowned tat artists but they probably have some of the most conscientious. That’s because Happy Valley Tattoo is also a church, the Whole Life Ministries, where the Reverend “Doc” Lowery and wife Kita Kazoo consider tats and piercings a strong symbol of self-expression. These ministers of ink go out of their way to make sure clients feel comfortable and confident in the sometimes scary experience of getting a tattoo or piercing. “We don’t want our ministers bringing in negative attitudes that other places might have,” Lowery says. The church brings a refreshing kind of “judge not that butterfly tattoo lest ye be judged yourself” ethic to its business and the lives of its customers.

We are thrilled to be included in the Best of Utah edition.

Thank you SLWeekly and all who voted for us.

We also appreciate the nice article Eric Peterson wrote on us recently.

While raising six kids and running the ministry, studio and school has kept us from attending tattoo conventions the last twenty years, I do want to acknowledge Kita Kazoo as having international status as one of the world's great tattoo artists with grateful clients from all over Utah, Europe, Australia and the USA/Canada.

We especially appreciate the public support we have received lately over our "experiences" with American Fork and Utah County Government.

Thanks again,
Doc

Detroit & Shandi’s Court date

We got a phone call yesterday from our daughter letting us know that the my parents 50th anniversary party was moved up two weeks and that we need to be there soon.  Between traveling and not having internet in Michigan unless we go to the coffee house posts here are going to get few and far between for two weeks.

Also Shandi’s arraignment is this Tuesday in Provo at 2:30PM.  I’m not sure what room, so call the shop if you want to be there.  We will be closed all day on Tuesday.

She sure could use some support. Be there! This is a frightening experience for her.
