    Was in Boston for the weekend and made a random decision that I wanted to get a tattoo! Chris was able to fit me into his day even though I called super last minute (after I sent him a photo of what I wanted). If you're a chicken like me, just know you can't bring someone in with you for moral support! I found that out as I was walking in lol! Chris was awesome and helped calm my nerves and was constantly checking on me. He was so patient and helped me pick out the perfect fonts and placements for my tattoos. Can't say enough great things about this shop! Thanks so much!!!

    My first tattoo ever, done by Caz Williamson (visiting artist).  Fabulous experience with everyone there - can't wait to go back
    Jennifer C.

    I've been debating getting a tattoo for about 100 years, so when life finally kicked me into doing it, I wanted to be sure I wound up at the best place possible -- and I did, without a doubt! I visited and called a lot of places in MA and NH before making my decision, and every interaction I had with Good Faith was flawless -- the guys were chill, informed and cooperative. When I walked in with my artwork and ideas, everyone was honest and open with what would and wouldn't work, they really listened and tried to get us to the best compromise. I wound up working with Caz (who is a visiting artist who frequently is at Good Faith throughout the year, so if you're lucky enough to be there when he is, DEFINITELY schedule some time with him), and he was super patient with my questions, concerns and neuroses. I had a hard time explaining what it was I wanted in the design, but he seemed to know exactly what I wanted, and assured me we'd get it done. When I arrived on tattoo day the design was even better than I had imagined, and although I was nervous as hell, all of the artists and clients who were in the office just made the whole environment seem very relaxed. A few hours later, I walked out of Good Faith beyond ecstatic with every aspect of the experience -- I cannot say enough about the group of guys here, not only were they funny, informed and supportive, but each is clearly an AMAZING artist and professional. My tattoo is better than I could ever imagine, and I am one critical chick. I cannot wait to go back, and will be bringing company!

    I went in for my first tattoo as a walk-in, and I was in and out in less than an hour. The staff was so great, and Nick did a fantastic job on the tattoo and was very friendly about answering all of my questions. I felt very welcome and comfortable, and the result was amazing, so double win!

    My sister went on a whim one emotional afternoon. I followed a mere 3 days later. My first tattoo was a crazy good experience. Some of the guys over there look like they're too thin to hold up the weight of the equipment, but they manage to kick ass and ink some serious skin. I left feeling tingly and unable to sit for a good few hours and it was one of the best experiences of my life. THANK YOU GOOD FAITH TATTOOS! I HAVE FAITH IN YOU!

    What a painless process and such beautiful work! Victor was a sweetheart and I couldn't be happier with the end result. I was researching every tattoo parlor in Boston and decided to stop in to Good Faith because of the positive reviews and artwork on their website. As a tattoo virgin, I went in simply to get a feel for the process. I sat for about an hour waiting patiently for someone to come out to the front desk, I must've gone in on a busy day, but eventually I was pleasantly greeted. I came in with print outs of ideas I had for my tattoo (will attach an end result picture shortly) and they explained the method they would need to use to ensure it came out exactly how I wanted. I wasn't sure who I wanted to perform it, but I was reassured Victor would be the perfect artist for my idea. I paid a $50 deposit on the spot for an appointment 5 days later. (Moving along quickly!). On the day of my appointment I met Victor, he had a warm personality and he showed me what he drew up - I loved it. (they made sure to mention if I didn't love it, they would have no problem making the edits to my liking). Not wasting any time, he got me ready and had me on a table exactly at the time of my appointment. The pain was to be expected, tolerable but noticeable and he made a point to talk to me the entire 3 hours it took to complete it, seeing how it made me feel more comfortable. I could not be happier with the experience as a whole. Victor did an excellent job, the shop was clean and well kept, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. After it was done, Victor walked me through the after care process and even said to come in a month down the road and he would perform any touch-ups if needed. If you are looking for your first tattoo, or 100th it doesn't matter, Good Faith is where it's at.

    My feather tattoo that U am so in love with .. THANKS GOOD FAITH !!
    Christine F.

    I recently got my first real Tattoo, my other is super small on my ankle, but this one was on my ribs and pretty big for my body. Everyone there was so nice. I had emailed them a few photos of feathers that I was really interested in. When I got there the artist, I believe it was Victor?, made two sketches to try with the contouring of my body. He was so nice and made me feel so comfortable I wasn't that scared anymore. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to get a tattoo!!!!

    Amazing. Clean, chill, extremely nice, funny, helpful, and patient. I had the chance to speak with Chris to set up my appointment and design. I had not printed out my design prior to the appointment (which I should have done) but he was extremely accommodating. My artist was Victor Kensinger. He was friendly and welcoming. He drew up the design very well, checking with me to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. Since the design consisted of thin, precise lines, Victor took the time to be careful and thorough. His work was amazing. He notified me that he was using a 5-point needle to make sure the design would heal up to what I wanted. Within an hour it was done! He also offered to touch up my small tattoo (1/2inch by 1/2inch) for free. The total came out to be $150 excluding tip. I very much recommend this place rather than any other place around (some other places had given me a $300 estimate for the same design!) I'll upload pictures as they heal!

    I'm so impressed with Victor he gave me my favorite tattoo to date and hands down the best experience! He was patient and reassuring and designed a beautiful piece for me! Flawless clean outline with bright colors and perfect shading! Great conversation and hospitality 10/10 would recommend and go to Victor again

    Ian's the best!
    Christina C.

    My friend and I came to visit Boston for the first time and decided to get a tattoo together. We did our research before getting here and found this place. We walked in right when they opened at noon. They were able to fit us in a few hours later. Ian was very accommodating and nice. He definitely made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. If you're looking to get a tattoo, come here!

    Tattoo # 3 & I could not be more obsessed with this!Nick was great!
    Kailee A.

    Tattoo 3 in the books! It was my first time here! The artist was very honest with me and personable! Simplified the design to fit where I wanted it! I instantly was in love with the final product!! Clean and great location easy to find! Will be back for #4 :-)

    Duy A.

    Got my tattoo here, they so friendly. Victor is awesome. He'll take your idea and make it so much better.

    My wife and I were visiting Boston and we had an idea for a tattoo that we have wanted for a while…read more We called many places around the area and they were all booked for the weekend (we were only there for a few days). Through a little bit of research, we found Hourglass Tattoo Studio and specifically Sanjay. We really liked his portfolio and emailed him the same day to see if he had availability. He responded pretty quickly and we scheduled an appointment with him for the next day. He drew up the design and with his edits it looked amazing, but explained that he didn't think the piece would work because of the curvature of our arms. This came as a bit of a surprise, but we trusted him since he is the expert so we decided to go with something else. We countered on the spot, with a new design, and thankfully (and surprisingly), he took it all in stride and drew up the design with no complaints. I think it helped that the new design was a bit smaller and simpler. Even though the new tattoo design was very impromptu for him, he was very fair and patient the whole time explaining what he thought would work and what would not. He is a very easy going and chill guy, with great taste in music, and you feel like you are in great hands. Not to mention the needle he uses (some kind of high speed, quiet needle) is much more painless than other needles I have felt before. I appreciate Sanjay for drawing up a great design and not being frustrated with us when we decided to change tattoo ideas. Thanks so much! The healing process was also nice and easy! Highly recommend Sanjay for any tattoos (small or large) that you are interested in getting. Also he has very fair prices.

The booking process was easy peasy, she got back to me as quickly as she could, and calmed my nerves instantly when I went in (she's an absolute sweetheart).Now, I have three tattoos from Cori, and I wholeheartedly intend to get many more in the future. The shop is ultra clean, and the front desk staff is always friendly and cordial. The lobby features some seriously squishy and comfy chairs to relax in while you wait. Cori went above and beyond every single time, going so far as to respond to my messages on her day off, and extensively discuss design ideas so that she could create the best possible tattoo. I have come to completely trust her judgement and skill. I now have three tattoos that I absolutely adore. Total strangers stop me to compliment them, and every time I sing Cori's praises. I definitely recommend Empire Tattoo!!

    UPDATE: I got a tattoo here. Dave Norton is a very talented dude. I actually followed him on…read moreInstagram before I realized he was at this shop. Loved him for the cubist work he does and now I love him even more for how original my tattoo is. I came in with an idea of what I wanted and when it came time for me to actually tattoo, Dave exceeded my expectations in design. It was so dope. During the session, we watched two movies on the huge projectors in the shop. We were in a temp space, I think, as they were renovating the main place. Either way, everyone I interacted with was super kind, really funny, and just all around great people. I left kind of sad as we had spent 4 hours pretty much kickin it while I got my tat. Looking forward to get more work done here with Dave! --------------------- Don't really know about the tattoos, but my piercing experience was great! I felt the need to get a nose piercing and found Pino Bros through Yelp. I walked in and it was pretty busy, but I immediately was greeted by someone at the front and was taken care of (already impressed). The guy that greeted me told me that it would only be a few minutes because someone was ahead of me which was fine. I didn't mind. I only waited maybe 8 minutes until Aaron walked up to me and introduced himself. He immediately made me feel comfortable and I knew it was going to be a great experience. Aaron walked me through everything and made me feel at ease. Super sweet guy. Everyone there is pretty nice and I would highly recommend!
