🌟 Chamber Member Spotlight: Mayhem Tattoo and Piercing

A Comfortable, Creative Space Where Every Client Feels at Home

Tucked in the heart of Fairfield, Mayhem Tattoo and Piercing isn’t just a place to get inked, it’s a space where professionalism, artistry, and compassion come together to create a one-of-a-kind experience.

Owner and artist, Robert Shondel, opened the shop with one clear goal: to offer tattoos and piercings in an environment where every person feels welcomed, respected, and at ease. From the moment clients walk in the door, they’re greeted like family. It’s this atmosphere—paired with exceptional skill—that sets Mayhem apart from any other shop in the area.

A Different Kind of Tattoo Shop

What makes Mayhem stand out? According to the owner, it’s the shop’s approachability, humor, and respect. Every client is treated the way the artist would want to be treated: with kindness, patience, and professionalism. Whether it’s someone getting their first piercing or a lifelong tattoo collector adding a meaningful piece, the goal is always the same—to provide a very pleasant experience from start to finish.

Overcoming Challenges with Consistency and Heart

When Mayhem Tattoo first opened its doors, business was slow. But rather than cutting corners or chasing trends, the owner stuck to what mattered most: doing high-quality work at fair prices and treating people right. That consistency-built trust—and a loyal client base. Today, Mayhem is one of the busiest tattoo and piercing shops in Fairfield and the surrounding areas.

Art That Tells a Story

One of the most meaningful aspects of Mayhem’s work is the memorial tattoos created for clients honoring loved ones they’ve lost. These are more than tattoos—they're emotional touchstones, crafted with care and respect. It’s a service that brings deep value to individuals and the broader community.

Why Mayhem Deserves the Spotlight

“There’s no other tattoo shop like ours,” the owner says. “When you walk in, you immediately feel at ease and at home. That’s what I strive to provide every single day.”

From creating art to creating comfort, Mayhem Tattoo and Piercing is a business built on more than ink—it’s built on trust, empathy, and genuine care for people. And that’s exactly the kind of business we’re proud to celebrate in this Chamber Member Spotlight.
