I brought in my NYC x Bumble and bumble inspiration, and she executed it beautifully. The lines are delicate and clean, the little pops of color came out exactly how I wanted, and she captured my inspiration really well. Also -- she was FAST AF. I was genuinely impressed by how quickly she worked while still being so precise. I paid $180 for a small fine-line tattoo with color. It was definitely pricey for the size, but honestly, I get it -- you're in the middle of NYC. I was happy with the quality and how it turned out. Another huge plus: this was one of the few tattoo shops I found that stayed open late, which was perfect for my schedule. Helpful tip if you're trying to find it: the studio is upstairs, above a psychic place and a pizza place. Very NYC. Overall, my tattoo came out beautiful, the process was super quick, and Noirviens did a fantastic job bringing my idea to life. Definitely recommend!

She tatted us quick and pain free. Will definitely be doing business with them again.

Joe, the shop owner was friendly on the phone and answered all my questions. We were able to walk in at 9:45 (they close at 10) to get our tats done. I was forwarned that Anthony, the tattoo artist, had a client in his chair and we would have to wait. No biggie. In the meantime we were entertained by Joe, who had mad jokes and was super cool. He was also helpful with giving us ideas concerning the placement and sizing of the tattoos we wanted. Since the shop has recently moved to a new location (6008 20th ave) it is definitely looking like a construction site in there. Sheet rock and wooden beams are fully noticeable and the space itself is small. Once I got in Anthony's chair everything went great. He was thorough, kept his workstation clean and made sure I was happy with everything before he got started. He was done tattooing me in 20 mins, my friend 15 mins and our tats came out perfect. The only thing I would complain about is the pricing. It was a bit higher than I would've expected but, I guess you pay for quality work. (Or maybe I'm just super cheap, who knows?) I will definitely return next time I need work done.

I wanted a tattoo that covered my wrist surgery, captured who I am (The Sunflower...happiness, optimism, honesty, longevity, peace, admiration, and devotion), the life of my family (Butterflies...my hubby, son, & myself; also symbolizes Father God, Jesus Christ, & Holy Spirit). I also wanted a permanent wedding band. Jessa DID IT! It started with the consultation that I easily scheduled online. Then I met with her and her beautiful assistant Ashley to talk, review my ideas, and come up with the plan. It was also my 1st tattoo EVER so I had a lot of questions. They took good care of me during the consultation which left me feeling comfortable with moving forward. Today I went in for the work AND I couldn't be happier. Our time together was wonderful. Jessa is very loving and caring. She also has the BEST laugh! I honestly felt like I was hanging out with friends. Jessa and her hubby Juan own the shop and they have an amazing team. Getting a permanent tattoo for the 1st time at the age of 48 is not an easy decision but I'm SO SO thankful I choose to do it at Gallery of Ink. PERCENT recommend this business‼

He changed gloves and equipment a ton of times. The equipment came from sealed containers and the packs looked new. The shop was clean, the staff was respectful. The work came out just as I wanted.

From their merch to the studio layout, you are transported to a mindset that makes you feel like you were just invited to the cool kids table. I have done two beautiful pieces here at Bang Bang. The first was with Oscar Akermo and the second was with Maks. These artists are just two among many amazing artists that have worked here. My latest experience with Maks was great from the design consultation to the full day session. He was communicative and patient. He understood my vision and was able to bring it to life. Bang Bang is definitely on the higher end of the price spectrum but that comes with the quality of work that you would expect. Highly recommend.

I have been following Bang Bang for years on Instagram, and I've always appreciated the creativity of each artist. They're always on the cutting edge, and they deliver. I loved everything about my experience. It was easy to reach out to them, and they quickly responded.. You knew from the beginning they wanted to curate a meaningful experience for me, and were happy to answer any questions along the way. The shop itself is beautiful, bursting at the seams with personality. The buzz and the energy inside are worth the trip alone. It is so immaculate, relaxing, and inviting. It's a perfect space to create and receive art. I was honored to work with Solar, an incredible and kind artist. I knew her style would be an ideal fit. Her intricate and delicate line detail is stunning to say the least. Her designs are beautiful. My tattoo means so much to me, and it's everything I wanted. Solar made it more meaningful and helped guide me with placement. She was a pleasure to work with and I can't wait to work with her on the next one!

I scheduled my appointment several weeks in advance. A few days beforehand I reached out to confirm the appointment (by text, the same manner in which I had made the appointment) and never received a response (I could see the message was read). Although I never got the confirmation I figured I'd show up to the appointment anyway. It was on a Saturday which I had already cleared in anticipation of the appointment. When I got the to door I could see the shop was closed and that nobody was there. I asked Rhamses what was going on and saw that he had erased the messages where he scheduled me to come in. He apologized and first said there was a "mix up" and then claimed they "don't do appointments" but offered me an appointment for Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday--days that believe it or not, I work. He offered me a 10% discount on the next tattoo but I declined. I can't work with a business that is so unprofessional as to delete messages where they make appointments and then come up with inconsistent reasons why. Either there was a mixup or you don't do appointments--it can't be both. Wasn't really impressed with the work either. Two stars for wasting my Saturday.
