Honestly, I was going to get my septum repierced by them but there was a bad experience and honestly i have anxiety which shouldnt happen. I got my snakebites sometime two years ago by them (They are healthy as they should be) but when piercied (I was pierced by a black man there) He ended up pushing one if the piercings back in after originally taking it out because it was uneven which it wasnt. He proceeded to blame me for listening to his instructions which was breath in deeply (i have more than 5 professionally done piercings, i feel like i would know if it was my fault) With my septum, they pierced it once through the tip of my cartliage which was unfit to stretch it to the gauge i wanted. (a bald guy) I hope this store gets better experience because there is so much potential and so close to where i live. read more

Bad Intentionz Tattooz - the septum hole. - Piercing Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Great place, 10/10 would recommend them. Friendly. Fast. Quality work. We're able to take a walk-in.

YOSHI and Kevin do amazing work. the vibe in their studio rooms is perfect with music and they make you feel very welcomed and comfortable. we have been coming back to yoshi , which I have gotten about 13 tattoos from him and my husband got many more detailed pieces . I highly recommended going to see YOSHI or KEvin for your work and the pricing and time he takes to do the tattoos is 100% worth it. read more

This shop is so cute. The receptionist are very helpful and informative. Sco/Sko/Cisco is a talented artist and a very fun person to be around. It's my third experience with him, and the service is consistently great. Just make sure not to get too carried away and bring up any questions or concerns to him, he will promptly address them. I'll be back to finish this and add more. My family loves it here too! read more

Bad Intentionz Tattooz - still healing lol - Piercing Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Absolutely Terrible. Me and my friend went for 4 piercings, he got his ears pierced and asked for a needle instead of a gun and the guy used the gun anyway so he had to take the earrings out instantly, waste of $50. After a few days all the piercings I got were infected and another shop advised me they were terribly placed. Waste of $200 total and caused us infections and pain having to deal with them. Edit after their reply: tried reaching out as they asked me to, no response. Even further edit: I went to 2 different piercers near me, who both said the septum piercing I got from Bad Intenionz is the worst they've seen, and one of them even said it was a dangerous piercing. Overall, they live up to their name. Bad Intentionz, they do a bad job, and have bad customer service. $200 wasted. read more

if I could rate this place 0 stars I simply would. I got pierced with my best friend january 17th and whoever the piercer was he was extremely unprofessional. he did not sanitize the area nor did he disinfect me nor my friends piercing before or after the service. he also laughed at me for wincing in pain and said quote "I thought you'd take the pain better". extremely unprofessional. I already had my snake bites done previously and it never hurt the way this man did it. fast forward I clean this piercing about several times a day and wash my mouth with salt water and everything yet it still is infected. I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt thinking maybe it would go down if I kept treating the piercing however I've noticed that it tore the inside of my mouth and the jewelry sticks out very awkwardly inside my mouth. me and my best friend are extremely devastated by his negligence and I will not be ever coming back here nor will I recommend anyone else get piercings by this guy. read more

Terrible experience...high prices for mediocre/below average tattoo work. You can definitely do better. read more

Just got my nose Pierced($53) 12/11/21 the guy who pierced my nose was super nice and informative he did it painlessly and effortlessly ! Literally took 10 seconds I will say the girl at the front w the septem piercing (j or jade ..she said )could be a little more customer friendly Customer service is everything I was already having a bad day and she didn't make it any better .... other than that shop was pretty cool read more

Had an amazing experience with the tattoo artist very light handed had a full sleeve done by Cisco turned out to be my favorite piece definitely going back for more work. read more

Bad Intentionz Tattooz - Tattooed - Piercing Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

I would not recommend this place at all. I paid $1,500.00 up front because of the shops ridiculous rules. I went ahead paid the $1,500.00 to get my sleeve. The artist basically took forever, fucked up the tattoo and kicked me out because I couldn't stay later then excepted. I begged the owner to give me half of my money back back he refused stating that he could help me out but then took it back because of conflict of interest and told me to go the legal way. They basically stole $1,500.00 from me. And refuses to fix it, and refuses to refund the money. The artist wants do want he wants to do and becomes irate when you he doesn't get his way. The owner allows the bullshit. So now I have to take them to court to try and get my money back for the tattoo. The owner and the artist are completely unprofessional and only care about the dollar. I mean to be honest he probably doesn't have the $800.00 to give me back but that's okay. I highly recommend you don't go here and if you do don't pay in full they have this policy to pay upfront so when shit like this happens they don't have to refund you and leave you high and dry. read more

See all

I got a tattoo done and a nose piercing. My tattoo was an infinity sign with my three daughter names and I absolutely love it. The price was amazing I ended up loving my tattoo I recommend going to that place. Cisco was the artist that did my tattoo. read more

I have been going to this shop for years and received nothing but the best experiences. On Friday I got my 4th tattoo done by SKO. He always makes you feel at home and as comfortable as possible. He took me on time, I didn't have to wait at all. He already sketched ideas for me and went above and beyond what I asked. With that being said I'm sure I'll be back for another one. I'm very pleased with my tatt. read more

Sko was an amazing artist and made the whole experience very nice for me and my friends! He worked with us on prices, kept us laughing, and make sure all our questions were answered with the most sincerity. overall a great experience and would love to go back again. read more

I came to this shop twice for two separate piercings and when I say professionalism is at the forefront of their business, it's the honest truth. Cisco was so patient and gentle when doing my piercings. I would definitely recommend this shop for tattoos and piercings to everyone I know. Please ask for Cicso when you stop by because he's in my opinion the best. I also absolutely loved Monroe at front counter, she's so professional and funny. Can't wait to come back! read more

If I could select zero stars I would have. My cousin just turned 18 and for her birthday she unfortunately choose this circus of a place to get a shitty job of a tattoo done with her friends. The employees are unprofessional, especially the female in the front. I came in and stepped out because their was too many people in a tiny shop and when my cousin asked me to come back not too long after the receptionist said I was "being sketchy" with hella attitude. When i looked at the finished job on my cousin and her friend the tattoos looked unproportional, the lines are shaky and just the work in general looks off. There are far better places to go to and I would never ever simply step foot in this place again. read more

Always a simple process every time. The workers are amiable and chill. Been going there for a long time now got my 5th tattoo yesterday definitely would recommend this tattoo shop . read more

Great experience with Cisco! Very professional and patient. Love my new tattoo, will definitely be back.

The shittiest, most unprofessional tattoo shop I've ever seen in my area . If their not posting their customers ass and tits, they are making simple grammatical or anatomical mistakes . I recently had an acquaintance go there and get the worst tattoo I've seen in a while . This place's work is only good for a laugh . read more

Will be going back next week..was kinda broke so didn't have the 40 for the snake bites. I have to say everyone was friendly and definitely my new spot. also got a crazy good price on some ink. love you guys! read more

Bad Intentionz Tattooz - Piercing Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Visited this shop with my sister & niece (called prior to arrival to inquire if a 17 y/o with a parental guardian and proof of ID etc., would be able to get a tattoo), informed we did not have an ID for her however had birth certificate & other items - was told OK and went to the shop. Once there, reiterated what was discussed, initially arrived with the impression that an exception would be made, begin to speak with the original gentleman who ultimately said no - disappointed but understandable (also learned NJ/NY law does not allow minors to be pierced or tattoo'ed, we're from MA so unaware prior to visit) in this time, another employee (female) arrived rudely & interjected into the conversation saying 'I'm not touching her' (referring to my niece) which was an unnecessary comment considering we were told no and now just having general conversation. Additionally, the man who we were having the initial conversation with as we were providing birth certificate and other items, said to my sister, 'oh that can't be your daughter she's light skin and you're not' - EXTREMELY EXTREMELY RUDE and gave a vibe that 'we' (all black women) were not welcome to the shop, & possibly if we were not of color, we would have been serviced/an "exception" would have been made. Very alarming experience and uncalled for attitude/statements. Grateful that if my niece were of age, we did not use their services. Poor first impression and will not be coming back for when she is legal to be get a tattoo. read more

The people were friendly , the only thing is I had to pierce my nose again like twice but overall I like the place !

Today I woke up wanting to do something random so i decided to get a tattoo... Cisco was amazing!!! super friendly and he kept me very calm! I'm def coming back to get another one. read more

All my piercings have been from Bad Intentionz and I leave satisfied every single time. I personally struggle with fainting and dizziness but Cisco makes me 100% comfortable and less nervous. My most recent piercing was my septum and it went smoothly, not to mention how clean this place is, making it so worth whatever price i have to pay. read more

I went in 2 weeks ago to get a finger tattoo by "Superman". My good friend is friends with him and he has done several of her tattoos including finger tats. After he tattoos me I asked if he covers the first touch up (especially because I know finger tattoos usually need touch ups) he tells me not to worry that he covers the first one. I gave him a 25% tip on an already over priced tattoo that took less than 2 minutes. I go in today to get it touched up ( I only needed one tiny number touched up) he then tells me it's going to be $65 ! I told him that he told me it was covered last time and he goes back and forth with me saying he never said that. I said fine. He tattoos me talking to his coworker about sex and all this crap. Barely wipes the ink off of my hand gets up leaves the tissue on my hand and as he's walking away goes "Ok you're done".. I have ink all over my hand. Never been somewhere more unprofessional in my life. That's how this dude expects to get repeat clientele? I never raised my voice at him when he blatantly lied or anything. Place is a joke. And he is the worst. I have other tattoos by much more professional and nice people. Never go here read more

Got a medusa piercing here (I also have 3 tattoos from this shop when they were on Clark St. So it's not the shop just watch who you let do your work.) anyway... I believe the piercer was inexperienced, HIGH, or just didn't give a flying f**k!!! and I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE GO HERE. Within hours my top lip was the size of a golf ball. By the next morning, the ring was going inside because I could not get the ball off! I have been getting pierced for over 10 years so my aftercare was not the issue. It was a short bar, not the one that should be used for the initial piercing. I wasn't aware he used such a short bar until I finally got the lip ring taken out AT THE EMERGENCY ROOM! They had to cut an incision and give me 3 stitches. Luckily, it's on the inside of my lip and I do not have a scar. read more
