We stopped into The Black Veil Studio while walking around and window shopping…read more The vibe inside of The Black Veil Studio encompassed Salem and all of it's witchiness. The interior was so beautiful and scary, but in a classy way. There were unique book editions and artwork everywhere. I took home an Ozzy Osbourne post card that fit perfectly on my refrigerator. I actually didn't realize that they are also a tattoo studio - that would have been cool to check out, but I was so distracted and intrigued with the front of the store that I never even noticed. Staff were very friendly and approachable! I highly suggest checking out The Black Veil Studio whether it is for a tattoo or to check out their awesome items for sale.

I've sent Chris email…read moreafter email, phone call after phone call, and the effort has still not been reciprocated to provide me with what I've paid for. Despite my numerous attempts to contact Chris, he only responded a few times, always with excuses as to why he hadn't gotten around to the tattoo id requested. Most of the time I got no response at all. Chris got me excited for this tattoo, collected my down payment, and then forgot about me. This artist, along with the studio, are not worth trusting, don't believe a word they say. Very shady.

My son called him 2 weeks in advance because he had changed his mind about what he wanted for a tattoo but asked if he changes his mind on getting the tattoo can he have his deposit back and TOMO SAID NO!!!! He didn't tell us that we couldn't receive the deposit back 2 weeks prior to the visit so in other words he took advantage of my son!! Which he is entitled to getting his money back 2 weeks in advance this kid is very unprofessional rude and just down right a scam artist not a tattoo artist!!! I would not recommend him to anybody!!!!!

I came in for the Friday the 13th special, not knowing what the designs would be. My artist was…read moreJimmy, and I chose a design for my inner arm. The guy at the front desk helped me align it and said it would fit well. I picked a woman's face framed by a rose. I wish they would have let me know that it was a poor placement before putting the stencil on. The first part went fine, but shortly after doing part of the initial outline he told me that it would hurt a lot more when he began the inside of my arm. I tried to get through it, but eventually we decided to ditch the rose and just keep the face. Even though I got half the tattoo, I paid the full price. It looks great (and his lines are incredible) but I only got half of what I paid for. If I been advised about the placement, I probably would have chosen a different spot. Overall, the art is great and the staff are accommodating, but you might not get the best advice and end up leaving with half a tattoo.

I took my daughter to Expensive Pain Hood Ink Zoo. Previously, I spoke with Jeffrey Brito, the…read moreowner on the phone, and his only concern was to make sure my daughter and I were happy. As I was talking to him on the phone, I thought he seemed like a decent guy. I went online and searched it up as anyone should do if they are paying for a service restaurant, hotel, or something thats getting put your body. You're not being a stan your being proactive. What I saw was impressive. Not only his work, that was bussin, but how he gives back to the community. When we got to the shop, I was even more impressed. Cleanest tattoo shop I have ever seen, and everyone was super friendly. We started to work on the tattoo, and then I was convinced he was dope and the shop vibe was dope. Professional, talented, and so chill. He took time to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. The free hand drawing, along with the speed and accuracy of the tattoo, were fire. He has huge hands with a light touch. After he was finished, the area was hardly even red. I would highly recommend Jeffrey Brito and Expensive Pain Hood Ink Zoo. He is the GOAT! Mama Rose
