Sacred Ink is located on the corner of E Court and Dort and is in kind of an unsavory part of town…read more Get past its first impressions and you will have stumbled upon some of the kindest, coolest, artistic folks in the business. The shop itself is warm and inviting and though it's staff are obviously covered in tattoos they aren't intimidating at all! They are super friendly and go out of their way to make sure you have the best experience possible. The owner, Christian, has an incredible vision for this place and aspires to be more than just a tattoo shop but a cultural epicenter for the city of Flint. We helped the shop pick up garbage this weekend and everyone involved with the shop seemed really passionate about making their community better. Go see the crew at Sacred Ink and don't be intimidated by the fact that they are located in Flint! They are awesome!

Clean, well maintained, safe. More importantly, every artist has a unique eye for beaty and what…read morelooks good on the human body. Christian Jones, Bruce, Dpnny... all of the artists are talented and experienced. I trust them with all my art. Highly recommended to anyone looking for new ink. Also, they are very accommodating of different religious practices for the adding of spiritual tattoos.

Went there with my daughter yesterday. I wanted us to get matching tattoos for my 60th birthday…read more Honestly I think we chose this place because it's close to my house. But , I am so glad we did. Ed did both mine and hers. He was great at drawing up the picture. It took us like 3 times to get it exactly what we wanted. But , he never acted annoyed or aggravated about redoing the picture. He was so good about making sure he was doing exactly what we wanted. All in all . A very good experience. Really enjoyed it.

I won't get tattooed anywhere else in the Genesee county area…read more I went to another (well known) tattoo shop in the area and I ended up absolutely hating my entire experience there, so much that it discouraged me a little bit making me wonder if I ever wanted to step foot into another shop again. I went into Custom Ink & Steel to get my nose pierced and was completely surprised by the atmosphere in this shop, the staff was so welcoming and willing to help. I have now received 2 tattoos from Evan Oslund he does AMAZING work, he is also very friendly and talks to you the whole time, which is a big plus in my opinion. I cant imagine going anywhere else to get tattooed. Thank you guys at Custom Ink & Steel! Prices are very fair also!

BEYOND amazing service! Not only from my artist, but the receptionist! They were so kind and…read morewelcoming! Emma hit the ball out of the park with my fairy tattoo. I gave her a general idea and color scheme, and she exceeded my expectations of what it could have been! A truly custom piece of art! She was so patient with me needing a few breaks, and was thrilled to see I brought my own snacks to keep me going! (Always bring yourself at least 2 snacks and a beverage! You'll thank me later.) Could not have been more pleased with the business as a whole! Very clean and orderly, beautiful waiting area showcasing at the front their array of jewelry selections. And the decor was the perfect modern/vintage collab! Will be returning, and highly recommend anyone new to try them out! (My picture does not do her justice, please check out their website to see their portfolios!!! )

I went for my first tattoo and it was exactly what I was looking for. Excellent work and design!read more

Never get a tattoo by J Woo Kyle. Had a lovely conversation with him before he blocked me. Went in…read morea few weeks ago for him to fill in the outline I had on my arm of a rose. It wasn't the best outline, but it wasn't a "pile of shit" like he described it.. He said he would touch up the white spots no problem. Bragged about his abilities the whole time, just for me to end up with a rose tattoo with skin showing through and marks from the needle he used. If my outline was such a pile of shit, that's whatever, but he's responsible for coloring it in... Anyways, contacted him for a touch up and tried to be polite about it, while he insulted, and belittled me. Then told me to calm down. I got the tattoo by him because a friend referred me, and I've honestly never been treated so poorly by an artist. I hate to call someone out like this but name calling and blocking a client that wants a revision, really got under my skin. If you go there you'll regret it.

Went with a friend to get tattoos. Shop was a little messy but all of the artists were very kind…read moreand professional. Pricing was fair. Andy was my artist and gave me a sick tattoo. He was light handed and very detail oriented. I was super happy with his work. My friend had Cam who did a very clean geometric Star Wars tattoo. Overall a great experience.

This is the second time I've come here with a friend and second time I've been disappointed and…read moredisgusted with the place. And mostly speaking of one specific "artist". His attitude is just as shitty as his work simply said. My friend came to get her tattoo touched up and honestly it looked better before he "touched it up". He effed up her lettering when they were good to begin with, the tattoo looks...Let's just say could look a lot better when an actual artist would tattoo her and kept making sexual unwanted comments towards my friend. I guess if Chad is your next artist there...reconsider.
