One of the best artist I’ve ever met. I came in for a tattoo and walked out with two. This will be my permanent tattoo shop from now on. Give them a try you will not be disappointed. Very good artist. Emanuel Flowers did an amazing job on my back. I’m the happiest person in the world.

Manuel is the best that you can get, super talented! He will go above and beyond to make sure your tattoo is exactly what you want. He is always striving to get better and better. I would recommend Manuel to everyone!

If you want quality and attention to detail Next Level is the place to go. I would never let anyone else do my tattoo. You know going in you will get exactly what you want except it will be better than you can imagine.

I took many years to find a tattooist who had the skill level to bring my ideas for a tattoo sleeve to life. Upon the recommendation of a friend, I booked an appointment with Manuel Flowers to begin my tattoo sleeve. Manuel has been utterly professional during this process and the work is spectacular. The other tattooists and piercers at the shop are super nice and Im always comfortable when Im there.During a particularly long session, the apprentice Larae even went to get me a couple gatorades and a sandwich so we could continue the tattoo.Im incredibly grateful for Next Level Studio and look forward to getting more work in the future.

Manuel at Next Level Studio is arguably if not definitively one of the top tattoo artist in all of Arizona. I always loved his want to have a collaborative approach on every project and can put a spin on things you didn’t even realize to make it and amazing tattoo. The shop is always clean and everyone is always friendly. Wish I can give more stars!

Had Benny add onto a previous tattoo for me. Great group of guys in this place, and honestly a cheap price for the professionalism and service I received. I’ll be returning when I decide on what I want for my full sleeve

If I could give this place a 10, I would!!! Had nothing be great experiences every time I went in. Manuel is hands down the best artist, he really listens to what you have to say and he definitely killed every tattoo I got from him! The shop was always so clean and professional every time I went in. If you ever need a bomb tattoo with a great atmosphere, this is your place!!! Highly recommend and don’t plan on going anywhere else ❤️

I had my first tattoo done by Benny. I told him this was my first and he was Awesome! He made suggestions and answered questions I had. He calmed me down and checked on me throughout the tattoo. He was so good I’m already thinking of my next one. Highly recommended!

Collaborated with many tattoo studios and artists but proud to say that Next Level Tattoo Shop (Manuel) is by far the best weve worked with. His attention to detail, professionalism, and the pride he exhibits is truly demonstrated on every piece hes done for myself and my husband. We look forward to continue working with Manuel!

I have been getting tattooed by Manuel for over a decade, let that sink in. He is always up for new challenges and projects of any size, type, and style. His work stands out and is always consistent. His dedication to clients is exceptional and puts 100% into every piece. Here’s to another decade.

Manuel is the cream of the crop when it comes to Tattoo artists. He takes his time with every single detail and makes you feel comfortable the whole way through! The amount of compliments that I have gotten on my sleeves attention to detail is insane. If you want a tattoo done right and well thought through, Manuel is your guy. Hands down best artist around.

Overpriced Mediocre work. Save your money. Try next wave tattoo or even a real artist. But this guy? Its a hard pass...I seen all the pics here and other postings and they are that....mediocre. sorry but ive seen amazing work and this is NOT it.

This tattoo studio is great! It’s privately owned so you get a really intimate vibe as soon as you walk in. You don’t feel like just another client. The art and overall aesthetic is dope. You can instantly tell there’s talent working there.I went in for a cover up behind my ear. I was worried because the area is small and I didn’t want to have to go to big since I work in an office atmosphere. The end result was sized perfectly to fit the space behind my ear with out compromising the detail of the tattoo.Manuel was my artist. He made it easy for me to discuss potential options while being realistic and managing expectations. He took his time and presented me with a few options. He was professional, but friendly. The overall tattoo experience was seamless and comfortable.I definitely plan on going to him again, and would recommend him to friends/family.

Excellent shop! I have received multiple piercings at Next Level, all done by Manuel Flowers. He was very professional and ensured I understood the importance of maintenance and cleaning of the piercing sites which was very appreciated. :) all were done on a walk in basis despite his extremely busy schedule, which is amazing!!! He also took the time to touch up a tattoo done by a different artist at a different shop which I was very pleased with. The atmosphere of the shop made me feel very comfortable and I will be back again in the near future. Highly recommend!

Manuel and his crew are amazing and helpful with everything they do. Their work speaks for itself along with the awards to give some credibility if you are questionable. The shop is always clean, sanitary, and organized. The comfortable and relaxed atmosphere is a nice touch considering how professional all of the crew is. The open layout is nice and allows you to see the work going on around you which is cool to see! Would recommend anyone looking for almost any style of tattoo and piercing to check them out! Just make sure to set up an appointment asap....they are usually very busy

I will never go to another tattoo shop. Manuel does AMAZING work and each time I’ve gone to him I continue to be blown away by the time and effort he puts in to ensure the tattoo comes out the way I envision it. I saw him 4 times in 2020 and he completely transformed both my arms whether it was with cover ups or just a new piece. I trust him with his knowledge and what he thinks would be best when it comes to my specific tattoos. I would recommend him to anyone. Also the overall shop has great and friendly people in there too who also do great work!

I had the most wonderful experience here! He absolutely came through for me. He coordinated on an idea of mine online in 2017, since I live abroad. Since it was my grandfathers art, the perfect result was very important to me, and Manuel understood that from the start. I only had a small window to get an appointment and he didn’t shy away to make it happen and worked through the night.I was very new to getting tattooed so this was quite the size, but he talked me through everything, made me feel very safe and after 7 hours we had the perfect result. 2 years later I wanted some small additions to this piece and also a touch up on another artists piece, both of which he did a great job on (again on a small time frame). Even my dad who isn’t the biggest fan of any kind of body art came by and was super happy and relaxed after, because he realized how professional Manuel works, and how responsible this place is (he is a girls dad as well after all).So I can recommend this place to anyone, first timers or pros - he will make your idea into art.

I have been coming to next level studio for almost 8 years and have only been tattooed by the owner Manuel Flowers. He always makes sure to take his time when creating my concepts and ALWAYS listens to what I want in the design! He has always shown me progress of my drawings and if I would like him to make any changes he never has an issue! I have a full realistic Disney sleeve and the characters literally look like they are printed on paper. I am always having people stop me to ask where I get them done and I am proud they’re from Manuel at next level!!! I would recommend Manuel and anyone else at next level! They have been amazing and completely professional! He always makes sure I understand the process and if I have any questions I have always felt comfortable to ask them!! If you are considering this shop for tattoos and piercings, DO IT!!!!!

This is seriously the only place that I will go, From getting a tattoo to piercing my 12 yr old sons ears.. Manuel is an amazing artist and piercer!! He is professional and very detailed, his work is flawless. He takes his time helping you create your perfect tattoo concept. The shop itself is also very clean and modern you always feel comfortable, the atmosphere is always good and everyone that works there is extremely nice. I would and have recommended this shop to everyone I know!

Been going to Next Level, specifically Manuel Flowers, for about 13 years now. There are great artists in the world, but there arent many loyal ones that genuinely care about the artwork that you put on your body. He will tell you what is possible and what is not. He will not lie to you and under deliver, but he will do everything that he can to exceed your expectations. I have grown to be really good friends with many people in the shop over the years. Its an amazing environment and VERY CLEAN!!!!!!!!! There are so many tattoo studios that look good, but hardly any take cleanliness as seriously as Next Level.I 100% recommend this place to all of my friends, and even the people that stop me asking where I got my tattoo work done.

Hands down the best tattoo shop you can go to! Manuel is a award winning artist, and is a true professional. The shop is very nice and super clean. Ive been getting tattooed here for 3 years and have never ever had a bad experience. Manuels prices are on par for getting tattooed by one of the top artist in Arizona. Tattoos are for life make sure you get one from the best, go see Next Level Studios!

I can’t say enough good things about Next Level Studio! I wouldn’t trust anyone else. I was new to the tattoo world and Manuel made the whole process so easy. He made me feel very comfortable and always made sure I was doing okay. It was an extremely clean environment and everything is done/opened right in front of you. I later had more work done by an apprentice there who was equally as professional. I even went back to have my sons Halloween makeup professionally done - which I thought was especially cool! They have toy drives at Christmas and are just overall great people. This is a place that not only looks out for their customers, but is doing good things for the community as well.

Review №28

I sent Manuel a list of things I wanted in my tattoo, and kind of an idea of how I saw it coming together. He took my list and turned it into something absolutely beautiful. He was very honest with what he thought would and would not work/flow, and I really appreciated it. He was flexible and very easy to work with. The shop was always extremely clean and the staff was professional, as well as enjoyable to be around. I would recommend this shop to anyone, and will hopefully be going back for future tattoos.

Trusted Manuel with my Coraline sleeve idea and I couldnt be happier with my choice. Over the years my pieces still look smooth, bright, colorful, and so true to my vision! Manuel is down to earth and has become extended family. Im very grateful he has been so dedicated to my ideas and kept them original from the first time his tattoo machine hit my arm. I get compliments constantly and couldnt have asked for more dedication and quality from an artist!

I have had the pleasure of knowing Manuel from Next Level and getting tattooed by him (and only him) for 18 years...there is not a single other studio in Arizona I would recommend to anyone interested in being tattooed. Manuel is extremely professional and communicative with his process in effort to deliver a high quality piece that customers will be happy with.Next Level Studio is an extremely professional environment focused on cleanliness, customer service and professionalism by all artists in residence.If you are looking to get a tattoo I highly encourage you to connect with Next Level Studio first.

Manuel has done all of my tattoo work and when it came time for my daughter to start asking for a piercing, we decided on her septum and no questions asked we were going to see Manuel. He laid it out on the table for her. He let us know exactly how to take care of it and how important it was to clean it correctly. I appreciated that education for her because, as we know, teenagers think they know it all. Manuel and his team are professional and knowledgeable and I appreciate their time they take with their clients.

Manuel is one of the only people I trust and recommend when it comes to tattoos! Im super detail oriented myself and its great to have a tattoo artist who is the same way.

About 9 years ago I saw someone with an amazing desert scene tattoo and I had to stop them and ask them who did their work. I found out that artist was Manuel Flowers. I started following him on social media and followed him until I had the perfect tattoo idea for him to do on me. Ive now gotten two of my most favorite tattoos by him and ALWAYS get compliments on his work! So proud of these pieces! Shop is clean and always a fun atmosphere when youre getting tattooed at Next Level.

I have been getting tattooed by Manuel flowers for over 8 years now. Very professional. Very clean . Clean shop. Great tattoo artist and even better person. I always get what I ask for and even more. Manuel’s tattoos are on another level. I have several portraits done by Manuel. As many people know, portraits are probably one of the hardest things to do because any thing can make the tattoo look different from picture. But Manuel delivers every time. I literally get asked everyday where I get my tattoos from, people ask to see them, to take pictures of them. A GREAT TATTOO ARTIST. Highly recommend .

Manuel and Mandoe have to be my favorite people there, they help you feel comfortable and really take pride in their work. If you’re looking for a new shop definitely make the call to check these guys out.

Next Level Studio never disappoints! The professionalism, quality and cleanliness are top tier. Manuel did an amazing watercolor tattoo for me, that I love starting at. He goes in on detail, doesn’t matter if it’s color or black n gray. I also got to give Mando credit where it’s due.. his scripture is beautiful and his work came out exactly how I envisioned. I always leave next level with dope artwork and a smile (:

Next Level Tattoo has my loyalty as a long term customer. I have been seeing Manuel for my artwork for many years now and he is super talented! I originally came to Manuel embarrassed and extremely dissatisfied with a floral piece that covers half of my back, originally done at another shop. The color was awful the line work was rough but he transformed it into something beautiful. I love my tattoos and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Check him out or any of his team, they are all unique and diverse making this great shop! Highly recommend.

I’ve been going to see Manuel Flowers for my tattoo work for over a decade now and have continued to do so since the opening of this shop. Next Level is a solid environment with some of the top artists in AZ that are willing to work with their clients to achieve their perfect piece.Throughout my years getting tattooed by Manuel he’s always gone above and beyond to find out exactly what I was looking for in a tattoo, provide insight as to if the work could be done, as well as suggestions as to what might look more appealing. All of his suggestions have always been a hit with me and I’m fully comfortable with giving him the basics of what I’m looking for and letting him go all out to design it how he sees fit.5/5 stars, will continue to go back and see him, and continue to recommend him to people that ask me about tattoo artists

The staff is friendly making getting tattooed or pierced comfortable. This group goes to tattoo events all over and win awards all the time. I have been with one of their artists Manuel Flowers for 16 years. I will never go to any other shop for tattoos or piercings. I recommend this shop all the time. If you got time you should really check out all the artists work.

Manuel has a god given gift when it comes to the quality and detail of his work. He has always been extremely professional, thorough, knowledgeable, punctual and just friendly to be around on all my experiences there. I just recently added 2 more piercings to the 7 total he’s done with 8 tattoos. Ive always considered the shop extremely clean, and now with Covid, they’ve taken extra precautions. 👏🏻 Needless to say, if you’re in the market for some body work, Manuel along with his staff at Next Level, won’t disappoint.

My wife and i have been going to Next Level and Manuel Flowers for many Years now. The service we have received is second too none, the knowledge they have for rules and regulations is spot on. The cleanliness and professionalism is contagious to all the employees and as a customer you can feel it. When i had my first work done i went in feeling like a customer and ended up leaving as a family member. My kids have started going to Next Level for piercings and tattoos as well and i wouldnt trust anyone else then Next Level. I would highly recommend you call if you are looking for any work for yourself or your kids, you to will feel as if you have become a new family member. Manuel I look forward to coming in soon to get more work done, Thank You for everything you do and have done for my family.

I went to Manuel for an idea for a portrait. I seen him do one similar on instagram. And I was so stoked. I was like I have to get this artist to do my work. I waited 6 months and it was well worth it. I knew he was the right artist to execute the same idea. Once I saw the stencil, I fell in love. I had an idea of where to place my tattoo and he gave me honest opinions of where to place it. I never doubted him for a minute. After 6 hours and some change with the tattoo I saw, I was in awe of the finishing piece. My masterpiece. Manuel is amazing! His shop is one of best in AZ, if not THEE best.

I had several amazing experiences with Manuel. I told him my idea and he flawlessly executed my vision for each tattoo. I was so impressed with his work that I went back and had him redo a half sleeve that I had gotten done by a much less skilled artist years earlier. If you want clean and detailed work that will garner compliments everywhere you go then Next Level Tattoo studio is a perfect match.

Review №62

When I first went to Manuel I was looking for an artist that could do justice to a portrait of my grandparents from their wedding day. The only picture I had was over 50 years old and sizing it to the area meant their faces would only be about the size of a quarter. Manuel was able to bring the picture to life, despite its poor quality, and gave me the most beautiful and meaningful piece. After that tattoo, he also finished out a huge thigh piece that, at the time, was just an outline by another artist. Despite not being the original artist, he had a great vision for the piece and brought it to life. If you’re looking for an artist in the Phoenix area with unmatched talent, experience, and artistic vision, look no further. My only regret is not having him do more work for me while I lived there.

Manuel is an awesome tattoo artist. I have been going to him for 17 years now and he does not disappoint. He has tattooed almost my whole family and we dont typically pick the easiest designs. He is honest and throughly explains what will work and will not work on specific designs, so you know you will have a great piece. He makes sure you are comfortable throughout the tattooing process. I made the mistake of going to another tattoo artist and hated that tattoo. Two months ago, Manuel did a cover up and I absolutely love the tattoo. I even cried that the ugly tattoo was covered by a beautiful tattoo that has so much meaning for me. I get so many compliments on the masterpieces he creates!!The other tattoo artists at the shop are also friendly. They make you feel comfortable and welcomed.

Before getting tattooed by Manuel at Next Level Studio I did hours of research on tattoo artists. The reviews I read and pictures I saw of Manuel’s work made it an easy decision.

My husband and I both had ideas of what pieces we wanted but weren’t quite sure how to bring them to life.

We could not be more pleased by the passion and precision Manuel put into his art. We are lifetime clients!

The owner has been my go to guy since I was 16. My dad took me to a shop he worked at to get a piercing all those moons ago . 17 years later and a bunch of tattoos later he is still my go to. The one time I went to someone else I regretted it and went directly to Manuel to fix it lol. He has built a beautiful tattoo empire from the ground up. Every visit to the shop is a pleasant one. The shop is in immaculate condition every visit.. the one thing more immaculate than the actual shop itself is the pristine work him and the artists create . I highly recommend This shop to anyone one looking to get work done from portraits to fancy letters to traditional work this is the place . It says it in the name .. Their work is truly NEXT LEVEL .

Armando “Mando” Valtierra! That’s my tattoo artist! Figured I start with that cause my tattoo came out amazing, and y’all need to check this genius out! I gave Mando creative control over my tattoo and just gave him the concept/meaning I wanted and some references and bam, he created this. This was probably the best way to go. All the artists and staff at the studio loved it. The the studio owner was impressed. I’m really happy! All my friends loved it. All strangers loves it. This tattoo greatly exceeded my expectations as my first tattoo. Check his Instagram @ArmandoValtierra or mine @xmanuel19 to see it!

Review №77

I went in with a big mind cluster of ideas for a tattoo and spoke to Manuel. I just had a very hard loss and wanted a tattoo in remembrance of my best friend who recently passed away, so he listened and explained to me very kindly how I may not want everything that was I saying and he had some ideas that he thought may work and I appreciated his honest input and education on the piece I wanted. Manuel said Mondo would be the best for what I was thinking. I told Mondo my idea and he drew it up in a couple days and I liked it a lot, but I decided the day before that I wanted to make a change and I text Mondo early the day of my appointment and asked him ifB we could make a change and that easy he said he could change it and we would get some ideas when I got there. He drew it while I waited after we spoke about the change and I loved it the drawing, but to say he killed it would be not justification for the beautiful work he completed. Mondo took his time and paid close attention to every detail, like he cared how special this tattoo was to me. I am over the top happy and impressed and can’t say how grateful and thankful I am to Mondo for doing a beyond amazing job. Everyone there was kind and it was an awesome experience and I will definitely get more work done here and I’m referring everyone I know that wants a tattoo to come here. They are the absolute best I have ever experienced and I LOVE my tattoo. I cannot say it enough how perfect and beautiful this is and how very meaningful it will be forever.! A million Thank yous to Next Level Tattoo, especially Mondo!

Shop environment was one of a kind. Extremely safe and professional. Especially during these Covid times. The artist make you feel comfortable like you are at home. The whole shop has some phenomenal artist, that are there to help you bring to life any and all ideas you might have. I’ve been getting tattooed for awhile. This shop whether it’s your first time or multiple times getting tatted. They treat everyone the same. Highly recommend this shop!

I came in with a piercing issue where my ear got so irritated it swelled over my piercing😣I called Next Level Studio hoping they could help me with my painful situation. They got me in almost right away and Manuel knew exactly how to fix my issue and even put in a new, more comfortable earring. The studio was very clean and everyone seemed to be extremely experienced. Overall, great experience and will definitely be returning for other piercings.

Manuel does absolutely amazing work. He has done several of my fiancé’s pieces and has always been extremely professional and courteous. I recently tried to get a very last minute appointment with him but naturally he was booked. Fortunately for me, one of the newer members of next level’s team, Naomi was available and was able to fit me in same day. The tattoo came out better than I ever expected. She was very thorough, extremely clean and obviously a very talented artist. I’ve been to several tattoo shops in Phoenix but this will always be my go to place from now on.

I have been going to next level studio for almost 5 years now. I have had all my work done by Manuel Flowers. To say the least it is always professional. And always a very clean environment. Not to mention the detail and skill level of tattooing with him as well as the other artist that work in his shop. I couldn’t be more happy with the work that I have received.

If you are into quality then this is your spot. I have had multiple tattoos done by Manuel over the years...Now since getting to see what a really masterpiece Tatoo looks like. My black and grey 0 line tribute tattoo of my pup Ella so is so incredibly realistic. Doods we are lucky enough to have access to such a talented artist. The whole experience makes me put a lot more thought into my next one! thanks brother 💯! book your session as soon as you have your art or inspiration selected! he is worth the wait but you don’t have to if you don’t sleep!

Manuel Flowers and his entire staff pride themselves on creating excellent work with sanitation and cleanliness as a top priority. I have over 40 hours of work from Manuel and I get complimented on his art EVERYWHERE I go. At next level studio, you will never leave unsatisfied. Check out the Instagram profile and see the work for yourself!!

I’ve gone here twice now for two separate tattoos and I’ll only be going here for the rest of them. Everyone there are very nice and professional. I was pretty nervous the first time but it ended being the greatest experience I’ve had and work done is everything I ask for and more.

I did a lot of research on Tattoo artists before I got my last one done. In the past I have not had good experiences with Artists giving me what I wanted. I even heard, this is my style take it or leave it (so I left it)Manual is not only One of the best Artist I’ve seen, but he is very professional and makes sure you leave his shop a satisfied customer.He will be finishing up my Arm here in the near future.

This is the local tattoo shop by my home. And it’s very nice and friendly environment. I have gotten dermals here done by Manuel the owner and I was pleased because he knew exactly what he was doing. Have tattoo with him next few months. I’m excited about.

Zero stars. This place is a joke. This guy has no idea how to run a business. I took my 13 year old daughter to get a septum piercing. First he tells me I can’t even get her pierced. WRONG. (Doesn’t know the law) Then asked me if I’m sure she’s responsible enough to take care of it because his daughter isn’t. And then tries to lecture me on what I need when I had everything ready to go. I think it was his first day on the job but, Bro I don’t care about your terrible parenting and how much your family hates you. Just say you’re not comfortable piercing kids. I just want to pay you for a service. Let me decide what’s best for my daughter. I went somewhere else and it was a night and day experience. There are way too many legit places to get a tattoo or piercing. This is not one of them.

I have been going to Next Level Studios and Manuel Flowers for almost 10 years and will not go to another shop.  This is saying alot becuase I live out of state and must travel to get tattooed by him.  The work created there is incredible.  The staff is friendly, professional, and collaborative.   Above all, they take pride in their art and make sure that their clients are getting their best work with every tattoo.

Next level studios is the next level tattoo shop, Manuel is the best tattoo artist there is in Arizona. Everytime I step foot the staff is very friendly and open to wanting to hear what you want. Manuel goes above and beyond to make sure your tattoo is immaculate and everything you asked for. He takes his time to make sure every single detail is perfect before you leave, The best Tattoo artist and best shop around Arizona! I recommend everyone i’ve ever met to go there and get it done there!!!!

Had the privilege of getting work done by both Manuel and Naomi. Both artists are at the top of their game in terms of talent and professionalism. For me at least getting tattooed anywhere else, by anyone else is a waste of time and money. So glad I found this place. Will be using them from now on.
