Atmosphere Tattoo Gallery - Schaumburg

I got my first tattoo here with Anthony! I got text on my spine and he did a great job with everything. It went so smoothly and I’m in love with the results!

Daniel Nilges is the very definition of a professional in all he does. I will not let anyone else tattoo me and he even tattoos better than ink master winners that I had tattoo me before finding him. I trust no one else but Dan and the owner of atmosphere tattoo is an amazing man himself as well and a true gentleman. So is Dan, he also is extremely funny and smart able to have intelligent conversations or goof around while you’re getting tattooed. He makes it easy to do a ful day of tattooing along with none of my tattoos he has ever done have ever blown a line or created scaring. He’s that good!

I’ve been going to Dan for years, and he never disappoints! Every tattoo he’s done for me has turned out amazing. Dan takes his time, makes sure the details are perfect, and always delivers exactly what I had in mind (and usually better). His consistency and talent are the reason I keep coming back. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for quality work from someone who truly cares about their craft.

I've been working with artist Daniel Nilges for years now. He crafted my first sleeve with complete artistic skill, knowing exactly how to put things together and his drawing style was right on point with exactly what I wanted. Before him I bounced around from artist to artist. I only see him now and I keep on returning. His years of experience truly show in his artwork, speed, and professionalism. His attention to detail still blows my mind every time I look at my sleeve I fall in love with it all over again.

I’ve had an amazing experience at Atmosphere, and getting tattooed by Dan Nilges. He’s professional, knowledgeable & talented, which makes the whole process comfortable from start to finish. The environment is always relaxed, and I really appreciate how he checks in throughout the tattoo to make sure everything feels right. His work is quick and efficient, but never rushed — he brings a personal touch without feeling robotic. Highly recommend Dan if you’re looking for quality work in a comfortable, professional setting.

The "ATMOSPHERE" is great in this shop. Probably the best/cleanest shop I've ever gone to. Now my guy Daniel Nilges is truly an artist. I give him an idea and I let him run with it. Fully trusting his artwork. Have multiple pieces done by him. Fully recommend this shop for all the artists in there(they're awesome to talk to while you wait or even getting work done. But like mentioned before, try and get a time slot with Daniel. You won't regret it!

I got a hand tattoo with Dan. The tattoo looked good at first then faded a lot within just a few weeks. He stated one free touch up within 60 days. I thought that was awesome. So when I hit him up for the touch up he said he didn’t do free touch ups on the hand and that there would be a fee. It was confusing because he mentioned a free touch up and the only tattoo I got was on the hand. I’m not sure why he would mention a free touch up on a place he later said didn’t do free touch ups on. My friend who was with me says she heard him say exactly what what I stated here. I went to get my ring covered up and within weeks the cover up was uncovered. He even said he was trying out a new type of needle that he had not had previous experience with. I guess it wasn’t that great. I would make sure you have all their statements in writing or maybe see a better studio where tattoos last more than 2 weeks.

Everybody here is so friendly and makes you feel comfortable! Kris is a true professional at what he does. I got jewelry changes and two new piercings and I am obsessed! I love them so much. He was quick and made me feel comfortable. I loved the placement and the jewelry options too. Everything was sanitary and clean. Definitely recommend Kris to everyone in need of new piercings!

Fantastic work from Daniel, got the octopus of my dreams on my arm and the pain was minimal. For a first tattoo, Dan hit it out of the park, and I couldn't recommend him more for the both the work and the hospitality. I'll be back for more!
