First, thank you Cuong. Amour Tattoo (in my experience) is the best shop in NOVA. It's a busy shop, so come prepared with a solid idea of what you want and calendar dates available. They perform diligent work and more importantly operate a clean & safe environment. Cheers read more

Went here for a tattoo on my forearm back in the summer of 2022. The artist who did my tattoo was friendly, talented, and detail oriented. I made my $50.00 deposit with my consultation. I don't know if this is still the requirement. My tattoo session did get pushed back another week because the artist was quiet busy so that was not too exciting, but I was understanding. But overall, the place is close by to me, the artwork was very impressive, and I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a tattoo for a fair price. read more

Had a great experience getting my first tattoo. Wanted someone who could do a lot of fine line work. Met with Cuong, and explained I wanted, he made some great suggestions - like make it bigger, and add color. He knows his stuff. It took 2 sessions to get everything done, and the fine line work is absolutely fantastic. The color really pops, and I'm really happy with it. All my questions were answered, was chill while doing his work, and everything turned out great. Definitely would recommend in the future. read more

Just got my second tattoo by Cuong and he's so awesome. His fine line work is impeccable, super clean lines. I wouldn't have trusted any other artist with this tattoo design since it had to be so precise and neat. Cuong is super easy to work with and schedule with and really nice! I recommend him to my friends already. read more

Amour Tattoo - Tattoo Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

It usually takes me years to get my mind up on what kind of tattoo I want to get. So this was my third one. Having recently moved to the area and looking throughout the entire DMV area, I settled on Amour Tattoo and went to see Cuong. He was quick and professional on the consult and responsive to any of my inquires afterwards. Day of tattoo comes up and 4 hours later, I have an absolutely stunning tattoo. I have zero complaints. Price was fair and his line work is on point. Shading is good and his ability to bring to life what I wanted was very reassuring. Wife will probably get her next one from him and I won't hesitate to recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new tattoo. Other pluses: - Clean shop - Friendly front - Ample parking read more

After doing a bit of research, I decided to have Cuong do my artwork. He was very easy going and flexible to work with especially since I was coming from western Montgomery county. Cuong completed the entire job in 2 sessions over the course of 3.5 weeks. He was able to add a Pop of color that really makes it shine. The tattoo was finished in late August 2022 but I wanted to wait until January of 2023 to write this to see how it held up well after the healing process was done. It looks fantastic. Thanks Cuong & staff for being so accommodating, easy to talk to and helpful. read more

Overall I am very disappointed. The lack of communication was very unprofessional. I took time off from work and drove an hour only to see the shop closed. There was no explanation. I completely lost trust in this place. What's Good: The shop itself is clean. The artist had decent lines. What Needs Improvement: Hands down the service needs to improve. They probably have lots of volume but need to be better organized. Communication and commitment to the client should be top priority. The art-to-price ratio is skewed. I like the piece but I don't think it's worth the price I paid. It was my first so I wasn't sure what to expect. Shop around to get ideas. Overall: Again, I was super disappointed in my experience. I lost trust in this shop which was really unfortunate. It seemed to be good at first but customer service is obviously not priority. read more

Huge thanks to Cuong who finished my poly sleeve on my arm. I've been looking around for years to continue my sleeve from a different artist who isn't around. Cuong was able to continue what I had previously, and was able to add his personal style which I love very much. I've never had a better experience at a tattoo shop like I did here, the staff were very friendly and professional. The shop was very clean and neat. Cuong is very diligent in his work and it shows. I will definitely be back to get more ink. 12/10 read more

I've been wanting a tattoo for years and recently I finally decided to take the plunge. I did tons of research and came across Amour Tattoo based on location but also from the pictures that all of the artists post on their Instagram accounts. Due to the type of tattoo that I wanted (fine line), I chose Ethan Xu (@tattsbyethan_) because of his portfolio. He told me that everyone in the shop is knowledgable in multiple types of tattoos so whoever you choose is bound to give you good work! But Ethan is super chill and patient, especially for how anxious I got about getting my first tattoo. Definitely recommending him to everyone looking for an artist! Can't wait to come back for my next one! read more

Amour Tattoo - lobby / hallway to artist rooms - Tattoo Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

The other day, I had written a review about a Salon I use to go to. I also saw two other shops I wanted to check out too. A friend of mine named Jasmine A asked me if I was planning on getting a tattoo. No, but I have been thinking about having a tattoo removed. I saw the shop, but did not see any books of art work the tattoo artist did. This seem very unusual to me, but then I thought maybe they posted them online. I was correct on the online part. If this establishment has books of tattoo art work, I did not see them up front in the lobby area. There are three tattoo artists meantioned on the website and they are Cuong, mimi and Jasmin. Cuong happens to be famous like The Living Legend Larry Zbyszko. Okay, many of you may not know the name, but that's okay. Cuong is the boss of the establishment and he was the first name I saw on the website. Cuong specializes in custom artwork, detailed fine line pieces, and robust cover-up tattoos. This last specialty is one I am interested in. Mini does a variety of tattoos, piercing and permanent makeup. If this wasn't enough, Mimi knows a thing or two about hair styles too. Jasmin can do clean, sleek, and original artwork. If body piercings is your thing, guess what?!...Jasmin can do this as well. I ended up talking with Cuong and I found him to be cool dude. I will give this place some thought before I make up my mind on a possible tattoo decision. When I do make up my mind after doing more research on permanent make and tattoo removal, have a better idea on what I want. I might even get a tattoo here. read more

Definitely will be looking to getting another piece from here! read more

I have had the pleasure of working with the Amour team once more after a few years since my last tattoo this November. I had come in with a clear idea of the tattoo I wanted but wasn't sure how to make it work with the limited space I needed it to fit in, but Coung worked with me. He understood the vision I had in mind and found a way to make it best fit and brought the idea I had to life designing it before he introduced me to one of Amour's fabulous tattoo artists, Miguel torrico, who took the outline and gave his recommendations that improved the design. It has been about a month now, and the tattoo has healed nicely. If you ever looking to get a tattoo and live in or near the Northern Virginia area I highly recommend Amour Tattoos. I have gotten multiple pieces done by them and each experience has been amazing. Their whole team is highly skilled in their styles, knowledgeable in tattooing in general, as well as kind people, and fair in their pricing. They always deliver highly quality work that you can't help but love. read more

Piercing was crooked. They didn't show me in advance where exactly it would go.. painful mistake and difficult to fix. This was my first piercing and wished it turned out better.

If you are in the market for a piercing this is not the place to go. read more

Finally got the chance for another visit to Amour! Cuong took great care of me as always, and the new location is great! Both of my tattoos have healed incredibly well and I am still in love with how cool they are :) Cuong is fantastic at turning what is in you head into really great tattoos. I will be back! read more

0 stars. I called in advance and asked if I needed an appointment or to send a picture of what I wanted. They said no. Finding the place was confusing because they apparently switched where they're located. I went and there were 3 different people there and they asked for what I wanted and made a crappy copy of what I wanted. Then proceeded to tell me they needed a few hours to call and have an artist come in. They never called me. Highly DO NOT recommend!! read more

So glad I stumbled upon this shop in falls church. I used yelp to find a specialized artist in Polynesian/tribal and Cuong's name and shop came up in the results. Drove 40mins each session just to get tatted by him. I gave this man a handful of symbols and he came up with such a beautiful unique piece for me that incorporated my family's tribal symbols that are specific to their region in the Philippines. After every session I got compliments from numerous people just on his line work. It was a pleasure to see my ideas turn into such a beautiful piece. Friendly shop, his wife was fun to chat with too! Thanks again! read more

My friend and I came here to get our tragus pierced. Jasmine took us in quickly after we filled in our forms and was able to see her prepare for the piercings. Jasmine was very professional and nice! During the piercing she kept asking if everything was ok and made sure we were alright. You don't get to pick the type of jewelry I think as we weren't asked if we wanted to choose or anything. Also I heard the prices went up for piercings because they got better quality earrings. Thank you Jasmine !! P.s there might be deals if you get one or more piercings which is great!! read more

What happens when you find a dope tattoo artist, followed them for 8 years on social media, saw his work at a previous shop in Falls Church, Va you schedule a consultation. During his initial outreach I felt calm... we discussed what type of tattoo I wanted, placement, and scheduled an appointment for the following week. Well guess what happens?!?! After driving for 2 hours in traffic for a "scheduled"consultation he was a NO SHOW! Can yawl believe it? I couldn't so here is my experience, also read my status updates at the end. This review is strictly for a lack of follow-up and customer service not on the QUALITY OF WORK! I'm actually proud of myself right now, I gave myself two months before I wrote this review but since I never received an apology, follow-up nada from the shop?!?! Why not share with my fellow yelpers. After scheduling my appointment with Chung/Chang (the owner) I arrived @1pm and he wasn't there.. Rightfully frustrated, I said I drove 2 hours in traffic! The woman calls him and he advises her to tell me to come back after 4 or I can schedule my consult with another artist, he will be gone for most of the day as he's opening another shop and has to file for a new business permit. Kudos on growing your business but WTF?!?! If I wanted another artist I would have "stalked another artist" for the past 8 years... I said are you serious? She says yep it's nothing I can do. Just screw my entire Thursday and GAS out the window...Rightfully pissed. I left and drove 2.5 hours back home in traffic!!!! I waited for a few months before posting here to give this shop the benefit of the doubt.. but nope I'm still pissed so let me once again offer my advice. Adhere to your customers especially those individuals who admire your work. Like you, We are busy, I scheduled time out my busy day for this appointment. if you are busy simply Follow-up with the individual and reschedule. #customerservice101 I WONT discredit his work as an artist, my suggestion for patrons is follow-up to ensure the artist will be there. I hope your experience is better than mine. UPDATE::::::::::::: June 18th So 24 hours after posting this review, I received an "impulse follow-up response" which was filled with inaccuracies from the shops GF/Wife Mimi?!?? Aka a "Defending her man response" (See her response below, which I approved to post here :) ) When posting a ONE RATING I expect a response from a PR team or social media manager to try to have a dialogue and I always update my review to convey managers response (See my other reviews) but hers was exactly what I have been saying about this establishment---POOR/CONFUSED customer service. Versus going down her inaccuracies in her response (again see below) , you can just compare my experience with her lies, it's funny because she wasn't even there at the end of the month of March, which also confirms that this is a reoccurring with other people who just want a tattoo.. ( again if you go here just call to confirm) I did not and will not critique his work, I WAS a fan, I think he's the dopest fine line artist in the DMV, but what would kill his success and others in the shop is customer service. I'm sure this will go over your head, but you are part of the problem. So... Dear Mimi here is my polite customer service recommendation: Get your facts straight when responding to posts--especially when a customer can attach screenshots of appointment confirmations, GPS timestamp travel, Gas receipts from the local Wawa's and a picture of my ATT phone bill when he called to confirm my appointment, the week prior. It's always good to get your facts straight before you address a "former" customer because I have all of these available as digital imprints are the devil. While defending your man, understand that you are in business, your response was like a mad girlfriend versus that of a business owner. I recommend you read the following book: "How to say it" or "How to write an executive email" Now if you are still reading this long post you are a trooper, as far as my updates on obtaining a tattoo. i did get me an amazing tattoo from an outstanding artist in Virginia. if interested in where I went DM me, I won't share where I went on this businesses page. Good Luck everyone! read more

it's been about 3 weeks since I've gotten tatted by Cuong and I'm still so amazed by the work he's done. From the moment I walked into the shop, I knew I had walked into a special place. Cuong and his staff are so friendly and cool and made me feel at home immediately. Despite the pain I had to endure for 15+ hours, I was constantly talking to Cuong and the other artists and had so many good laughs. As for my tattoo, it was my first professional piece I was getting so I was hella picky trying to decide who was gonna do my piece. The amount of detail and precision Cuong put into my tattoo was incredible. He never rushed and made sure every square inch was looking good. Hoping to be back sometime to get another. I highly recommend this place!! read more

I did a lot of research into artists in the local area after my previous artist moved away. I considered several shops that friends had used but based on my preferred style I settled on reaching out to Cuong at Amour. The studio is immaculate and he and I hit it off immediately.

I've gotten two tattoos at this spot, both by the owner Cuong. Both have been different experiences; my first was a custom design he drew for my first tattoo, and the second was something I had drawn myself. (Photos attached are those) Scheduling appointments is very easy and organized, and his studio/office is very clean and organized aside from the wall of previous works which shows off some of his insane designs. The environment has a very personal yet professional vibe, where everyone in the space will come around to look at your progress and compliment how it's coming along, while the artist maintains the sterile station. I haven't gotten many tattoos so I can't compare on pricing or time (value of hours and efficiency), so you'll want to read others reviews for that. read more

I've wanted my second tattoo for a few months and did a lot of research on who I wanted to go to, and different artists in the area and what type of tattoos they provide and art style. I wanted attention to detail, and solid line work, both are things Cuong specializes in. Cuong and Mimi run a great shop. I really liked the decorations they had dressed up in the Halloween spirit, that was really cool that they wanted to make the store fun and enjoyable. It looked very clean too. Everybody who worked there was super nice and friendly. Cuong is very knowledgeable in his field which I feel is something that truly is valuable in the world of tattooing. Very patient, and willing to answer any questions he was given and offer any suggestions from an artist's point of view. The same with Mimi. She initially suggested the Roman numerals I wanted on my arm to be a little bigger because my arm is a little smaller, so it would pop more. I went that route and it looks really great. Cuong helped my wife with picking a spot on her thigh for her tattoo, and positioning it below another tattoo she already had. I have already recommended them to a few friends, and I wanted to put on Yelp that my experience was definitely five stars. I have a few other tattoos I would like to get and I'll be returning to see Cuong. read more

I am a first-gen Filipina and it mattered to me to have an Asian-Pacific Islander tattoo artist. I googled and I found Amour Tattoo and Cuong. Cuong is one of the most incredible artists I've ever met. He is deeply attentive and will really listen to what you are looking for. He also has brilliant ideas on how to make the piece you want to look even more beautiful than you may have originally thought. I am going to Cuong for several pieces because I love his style of work. He just did a lotus flower with two colors "splashed" in a watercolor type of design which I am obsessed with!! He will also work on a traditional and modern tribal Filipinx tattoo band around my thigh next month. To say I'm looking forward to that is an understatement. His ability to take the time with you and do a consult is really considerate and I appreciated that a lot. He is really patient and unbelievably gifted, check out his IG @Cuong_Tatt. I also learned there are other BIPOC tattoo artists in the space which again is something that is important to me, representation matters. I also got my ear pierced by the beautiful and talented Jasmin!! This girl is a double threat, she inks AND pierces. I love how she was honest about my earring placement when I told her what I wanted and suggested a different location on my ear instead. I appreciate her experience and her honesty so that I didn't get something that might've hurt me or not look as nice in the long run. The building isn't what you expect in a good way, it has a lot of parking so you don't have to stress over that. My only wish is that they could open up another location in DC!! ;) But I have nothing but love and respect for the community of artists at Amour. I've already told friends about this place and they are going to be coming to Amour to book with them. If you are looking for a tattoo or ear piercings, Amour is the only place I'd recommend. Come through, they'll take the best care of you!! PS - I also came for the name of the spot. It's a fucking beautiful name and I love that the name is what you feel in the space. read more
