This spot came up number one in the area I was in on a 24hr layover so I did a little research and knew in my heart it was the place to go and had the tattoo artist for the job. I had this little piece done by Drew Reyes and while I know it's small, sometimes those types of tattoos are the most challenging. He is really a great tattoo artist. I can't speak enough about his professionalism and artistry. I had a really wonderful experience. The shop itself is adorable. You can tell it's a true artist's spot. Clean, friendly, and in the most adorable strip mall from the 50's above a Cuban restaurant/ nightclub this place has all the good juju and vibes

Don't be deterred by the rundown looking building. Inside everything was clean and sanitary. Nina was sorting earring when I walked in, and was quick to help. She gave me a lot of great ideas and suggestions, and once I narrowed it down, took me into the back room to do the earring changes. She was meticulous with cleaning my ears and new earrings, regularly swapping gloves in between procedures. I loved that she kept up a steady chatter of great information about how to heal and take care of the piercings, which also served as a good distraction. She even took an existing piercing out and cleaned it, just so it would sparkle again. I wasn't ready for new piercings at this time, but I will 100% come back to have Nina do any future piercings.

Due to extremely long wait times...this is what happens when a good deal is released on May 13th! After waiting for 1 hr., I decided on getting my nose repierced, which took a short amount of time - maybe 15 min. & repiercing my nose ended up hurting more than I recall from when I was 18 yr. Old - the gentleman that did both piercings was so nice and sweet. The olive branch/leaf tattoo was a good deal but felt the work could've turned out better because I was expecting a more steady hand from my artist...you can tell the work isn't even.

I did my research into various tattoo shops in the area, and settled on Ink Wolves because I liked their portfolios on their website and saw that they had a lot of good reviews. I was a walk in client, and there were a few people ahead of me, so I had to wait awhile but I didn't mind. I am a nurse, so I took this time to examine their cleanliness. I watched to make sure that they were wearing gloves, washing their hands, cleaning the chairs, using sterile equipment, and that the ink was poured into one time use cups. I am happy to report that they passed my little inspection with flying colors. The shop is very small, but it is clean. When you walk in, you'll notice a couch, a loveseat, a couple of chairs, and a desk. On the right wall they have a lot of well organized "tattoo flash" (predawn outlines of tattoos), but it's obvious that these artists like doing custom work, and that's a good thing! Along the left wall as you come in and throughout the shop, you'll see paintings by the various artists that are for sale. Beyond the desk is the tattoo area, and there is a small private room in the back where they do piercings. They have a single stall restroom that customers can use in the back, just ask if you need it. The staff seemed very friendly and professional. They charge a very fair price for their work, and have a lot of GREAT discounts and deals frequently. My artist was Jelly (who is also a piercer), and she was wonderful. I had minimal pain and the tattoo turned out beautifully. It is my favorite of my three ta In short, I would highly recommend Ink Wolves Tattoo (and particularly Jelly) if you are looking for a good tattoo at a good price! PS: they own the smoke shop next door and will occasionally offer coupons for discounts in the smoke shops for their tattoo/piercing clients. UPDATE 4/26/19 I returned to this shop for a nose piercing in Jan. Once again, they did a great job! Brandy, the piercer, is very nice and gentle. She walked me through the process step by step. It's healing very well! Today, I returned for another tattoo. It's the Rebel symbol from Star Wars and I love it! Once again, the staff was friendly and were able to fit me in between appointments because my tattoo is small. As long as I live in the Tampa area, they have a loyal customer!

Super cool people for piercing, just don't get anything advanced…read more tldr: the male piercer that works wednesday and thursday has an ego and used incorrect jewelry several times, eventually nearly causing me to have to go to the ER for a nesting/near embedded cheek piercing. long, reading: My current set up at this moment is : clown eyes, bridge, nostrils (one each side), septum, vert labret, and dahlias (most recent, got in jan 2026). I started with the nostrils and got 2 ladies that took care of me in every sense of the way, even showing me the best way to clean them. I was also lucky enough to have them do my clown eyes. It was great having a shared goal to get everything even, the piercer with me even bringing in other people to check. However, my issue started when I got the labret and bridge. For context, I got the labret out of town but it dramatically shifted to the left when healing so I removed it to get redone. When going back in a few months later, I am told they don't do those and I'll have to come back wednesday or thursday for the more experienced male piercer. I don't see him do anything sus until he grabs 2 curved barbells. While I do have knowledge that bridge are done with straight bars, I know it is common for older professionals to use the curve so I don't say anything. When sitting down, he examined my previous scar on my lip and started shaming the previous person (while i understand it still put a strange vibe). When I feel him put the dot i mention "if you're planning to line it up with my teeth it'll turn out like that again." He dismisses me and assures me that it looks even to him. Yes it looks even but, with future knowledge, i can tell you it's not. it is still slightly to the left but i really can't be bothered to spend the money to get it done a third time just for me. Strike one. When moving onto the bridge, i ask about the bar. as i assumed he reassured me they "used to do it this way all the time". it is now lopsided and, while this can't be entirely his fault, it still has yet to heal completely. I am considering healing it over and going somewhere else as i dearly need to be symmetrical. strike 2. The nightmare i shouldn't have bothered with was with my dahlias. I again am asked to wait for him as it's a delicate spot and can be botched easily. fine. on the day, i see him again grab 2 curved barbells. i think "surely those aren't for me, this is a cheek piercing even I know that cheeks swell." sure enoug, in go the curved bars. i really should've walked out. they looked good for about 1 day. once the swelling started it wasnt long before the ball on the inside was starting to tunnel. since i had gotten it done on thursday and this is the only place in a 20 mile radius willing to tackle dahlias, i am forced to wait it out. when going in wednesday the following week, i have a hole in my cheek and the other is catching up quick (keep in mind this is all near my mouth so i'm barely able to even talk without some pain). while i admit this may have been rude, i did say to the receptionist when signing in, "i told you guys this isn't the right bar and you didn't listen". she of course didn't relay this to the piercer and seemed rather offended that i'd question his methods at all.? to their credit, they changed the bars no charge but that was certainly strike 3 4 5 and 6 double play. if y'all read this and remember me, sorry not sorry i still have the long bars in the dahlias and it's been 6 months now. no teeth chipped like you were oh so afraid of.

The fact that Bella could have charged me for a Peircing and jewelry but said she was going to check to see if we could just get the jewelry in was one of the things that stood out the most , I love an establishment with honest people that aren't just trying to make a $ and genuinely love what they do . Bella was a whole vibe and so sweet and gentle for someone who's jabbing you with a needle ! They had a GREAT selection of body jewelry and the establishment was super clean ! We got several piercings and it was so nice that Bella took her time even though it was close to closing time ! I highly recommend Monique's and that is where I will continue to go for my body art needs !
