If I could give them 1000 stars I would. I grew up in the industry as my brother used to tattoo in…read morehis younger years, I have been surrounded by artists a better part of my life and have had my share of tattoos. I consider myself a "collector" of sorts and am pretty much covered neck to feet. I have been to many shops and artists throughout my life and there's something so different about this one. I called and had a quick discussion with Vinny. He was attentive and fast to respond. Due to my experience we didn't need to review the care and what to expect experience but we did glance over it. This man is a true professional and you can tell he loves what he does. I showed him what I wanted and even before I got there he had my design and had it in 3 different sizes. He took the time to be sure the size, placement, and design was exactly what I wanted. He quickly got to work and it was quick and amazing. The shop is so clean and each artist had their own room so if you plan on getting a tattoo in a private area or need to be somewhat exposed, the door is closed in each artists private studio. No head-head-banging-rattle-your-brain-kill-your-momma music. Just a real clean, chill experience. I HIGHLY recommend this shop. My only experience was with Vinny, FOR NOW but take the advice of this 57 year old man who's been in countless shops. This place is amazing. You will not be disappointed from the minute you enter, meet the artist and leave with a pristine tattoo. I can't say enough good things about this shop and their staff. Fair pricing too!!! Hard to find nowadays with all so called artists out there. Make a day out of it. Go make an appointment and then go walk around and enjoy Keyport. There was plenty of parking and everyone was so nice. Thank you Tattoo Vinny and the entire Broken Heart crew for a great tattoo and great experience. -Joe D'Agosto

I already saw the piercings and tattoos he did on other people which came out flawless, he really does have an eye for detail. I decided to give him a shot on my latest tattoo. His tattoo shop was located on the second floor near avenue m and utica avenue so I couldn't find it at first but once you go upstairs you are greeted with a friendly smile. The shop is very small and nothing fancy but he lets you go on the computer with him to search for the designs you want or you can email him in advance. He was really patient with me since I was picky about the size and designs but he gave me honest opinions, but even if he doesn't agree with your vision he still will do whatever you want at the end of the day. He helped me find a scorpion design that wasn't too masculine and I was able to i corporate beautiful colors into the design. Despite the fact that he did my ankle which is super painful he was really gentle and patient with me(my foot fell asleep ten times lol). He also did a good job at shading and blending colors together and he did the tattoo super fast. The needles are brand new out the package and he constantly cleaned my skin in between job. The best part is I only paid $100 for the design he is extremely reasonable, I am dying to go back for another one already. Only downsides to the place that I can see is that he doesn't take debit cards( cash only) and he works limited hours on weekends so catch him while you can. PS he also is great to do coverups/ touch ups on old tattoos. Bravo!

My husband decided to come to Vinny's for a nose piercing solely due to his reputation, but ended…read moreup regretting his decision. Maybe he's good at tattoos, but based off experience and the looks of his Google Reviews, he is poorly skilled at doing piercings... Similar to others here, my husband also said it was extremely painful and that he bled more than he expected to. About a day later, his nose became inflammed and the piercing disappeared into his nose... We knew something was not right so we went to another piercer for advice. This person said that it was a poorly done piercing and that any knowledgable professional would have not used such a short, curved ring on a new piercing, let alone on a male because their nose cartilage is much thicker than females. You have to use a longer bar to accomodate for swelling during the healing process. He paid $25 at Vinny's and then $38 elsewhere to get a new ring installed... Just go to someone else who knows what they are doing and is professional enough to accept criticism. If this is a common complaint by your clients, why not take measures to prevent it? Check out his Google reviews. The place looks shoddy, too. Looks like it's his shop/house.

I had a nostril piercing that I was forced to remove for a medical procedure. I thought no biggie…read moreI've changed my piercing before, when I get home I will put it back in.I went to put my hoop back in it wouldn't budge. My hole had closed over in a matter of hours! My hoop was a thin dainty 22 gauge and I wanted to keep it or something similar. I called several places but no one had anything that size. I walk into Forever Ink, entrance was in the back was immediately greeted and spoke to Malakai. He was so nice and took the time to explain everything to me. Malakai tried to taper the piercing so he wouldn't have to re-pierce it but it turns out a nostril piercing can close very quickly. Well, that went downhill faster than a fat kid on a snow tube. Bummer. Malakai was the best! He was very kind and took the time to explain everything. I appreciate his direct no non-sense approach. Piercings are wounds and wound care is not something to play around with. I for one want someone who is knowledgeable and takes the time to make me feel comfortable. I don't understand the bad reviews, I suppose he might come across a little rough around the edges, but it's obvious he is very caring and wants the customer to leave happy. Everything was sterile and clean. Everyone there was so nice and the shop just had a good vibe. Cash only but there is an ATM on site. Piercing was quick and price was very fair. I would definitely come here again for more piercings or if I ever decide to not chicken out on a Tatt. Highly recommend. If you found this review helpful, please show some love!
