Had my forearm sleeve of flowers and skulls done with Jeremy. After three multiple hour sessions I have zero complaints with the whole place and more than love how my tattoo came out. Everyone in there is really cool while still being professional which is a huge plus once you realize your gonna be sitting next to them for however long your tattoo takes. Again, my artist was Jeramy who was a great, the guy has character, is professional and gental with what he does. Again not one complaint, great shop read more

Do yourself a favor and go to 7 Souls down the street. Better people, better prices and more respect. This place is garbage.

Screamin' Ink is a solid choice for tattoos in the area and is both clean and professional. My only small notch down (4 stars) is the fact that they are definitely on the more expensive side and are cash only so force you to either come with a wad of bills or use their ATM which naturally has fees. read more

My experience at Screamin' Ink was pleasant in so many ways, Victoria B did an amazing job from the start, this was my first big piece and her creativity, professionalism and talent gave me a good vibe from the start. Working with her was TRULY a pleasure, she made me feel so comfortable and her personality is so candid and heartwarming I literally felt like I was being tattooed by an angel because even the pain was enjoyable with her as a tattoo artist!. Victoria knew how important this tattoo was for me and I'm satisfied with both the tattoo and the quality of the service I received from her :) this was my first time getting tattooed with her but it definitely won't be the last one :3 read more

I have been seeing John for awhile now and he is new at screaming ink and I HAD to follow him to screaming ink. He does fantastic work and the vibe of the shop is so much better than his previous one in maywood. He is kind and proficient. His work speaks for himself every single time. Highly recommend this place and John Buldo. The owner is also kind and respectful. Awesome shop. Awesome people. read more

So happy with this place! I couldn't get a nose stud in so had to leave an earring in for the night. The earring was not meant for a nose piercing so it started to get irritated and hurt. The piercer kindly helped me clean it out and insert a new piercing. They were as gentle as possible and went out of their way to help me. I felt safe and comfortable even though I was nervous about how much it would hurt. I highly recommend this place as it is hard to find a place that cares about your health and satisfaction more than money and profit. PS - TJ is a great person to see if you're nervous! read more

Came in for a Friday the 13th tattoo, I was told on the phone tattoos were $60. A little expensive as Friday the 13th tats are usually $31 plus tip, but I knew Screamin' Ink is a reputable shop, so I went anyway. I was showed what was being offered that day, picked out something I loved, and was told it'd be $150. Confused, I asked, "isn't everything $60," to which the owner replied, "no, our minimum is usually $100, and today it's $60." I was aggravated, bc that's wasn't what was told to me, but I was there and had my mind set on getting tattooed either way. Mike was my tattoo artist and I couldn't be happier with his work!!! I'm sooo pleased with my piece and can not wait to go back and get more done with him!!! read more

I had my inverse navel piercing done here, as well as my industrial. My navel rejected within a year, but the salon can't be blamed for that. Belly button was $70, and industrial was $90. The artists are very friendly, and the shop is clean. Both piercings came out great! read more

Screamin' Ink Tattoo - My inverse navel piercing was done here. (Don't mind the crooked top piercing, done at the boardwalk). - Tattoo Near Me - Fair Lawn, New Jersey

All 3 of the tattoos and body piercing were done by Screamin Ink. I never was treated poorly by these guys. And I'm one of those people that others go, "YOU have a tattoo?!?!?" when they find out. If anything, they always were polite and sweet to me, even sometimes when I just walk in. They also did my friend's belly button piercing and they were insanely polite to her, made her feel comfortable, etc. I never get the arrogant attitude from the group. They have always done great work and everyone loves the tattoos I have. The parlor is clean and well-lit. They are extremely patient with you. I had a scorpion done that took some time so I was given breaks. Also, the owner kept coming by just to make sure it was doing well. Other artists walked by just to talk to me and calm me down. Also, to assure me that it was coming out great. And trust me, it came out awesome. People love it. Since all my work was done here, I never felt a need to go elsewhere to check prices. If they're a little more expensive, I'd rather go somewhere expensive and get great work than try someone new and freak out because it came out like crap -- then have to get it covered up or removed. read more

I went into this place and it reeked of marijuana and did not look so clean, but I still went up to the manager to ask about pricing to temporarily take out for piercings and he wanted to charge $20 per piercing. The total cost would've been $160. I went down the street to the other tattoo parlor in fair lawn on broadway. It was a much cleaner Oder free establishment with friendly staff that greets you. there lady who does the piercings said sure it takes five mins didn't even ask for money. At the end she said come back and I'll put them back in at no charge. we'll I did go back and she did what she said. so I gave her a generous tip. read more

Very friendly costumer service but it was a little bit pricy for a pretty small tattoo.

My daughter and wife went in the get a small heart on there fingers that took 4 minutes and they had the balls to charge each of them 150 , Beyond pissed , this place is a rip off , can't believe they r still in business read more

Jim W. did both of my traditional tattoos (an anchor that says "Dad," and a really flipping awesome Jersey pride piece). Both are incredible. They are the tattoos that I am proudest of and I have seven. The shop is absurdly clean, meticulous, and an incredibly nice place to get inked. They are not cheap, but quality often isn't. Jim also does piercings. A word to the wise: Don't eat fried chicken next door. You may find yourself with your head in the toilet for the next 48 hours. read more

Kat has done three tattoos for me. I started simple because I just don't trust people at first. As each tattoo got more complicated, I was even more pleased. She easy to work with and gives awesome advice about what would look best without being pushy. Totally love Kat, and I can't wait to go back for my next one!! read more

Great experience! Love the shop and how professional & friendly they all were. My tattoo Artist, Jeremy Suria, was amazing. A true artist. I love all the ink I got and would definitely go back again. And the decor is beyond incredible and unique! read more

Screaming ink does some good work but very expensive. My wife and I had tattoos done with our sons name and it's was pretty expensive.

DJ did two piercings for my goddaughter and I as walk-ins. He was professional and did an excellent job. He even gave me a capri sun, so I wouldn't pass out. Would totally go back again! read more

I would rate this shop a ZERO if I can. I created this account for this purpose. I NEVER write reviews, but this was well needed. I want to first say how disgusted and disappointed I am with this shop. I have never experienced a shop where they lie to potential customers just to get a deposit which is a min of $50 not refundable either ( which is ok ). I am SO annoyed due to the fact that originally I was going to get a large piece done but was not completely satisfied with Cat's work. ( one of the tattoo artists ) so I decided to get a small piece. I left the deposit with the piercer/ tattoo artist, Jeremy. My main concern was how this shop prices out their work, because obviously each shop works differently. I was told by Jeremy that they price out their work based on sizing. I was obviously lied to, which was not needed at ALL. Now, I've dealt with shops that either quote their tattoos by SIZING or by HOURLY. The day I go to get my tattoo, I decide to go with a tiny tattoo, to give Cat the benefit of the doubt. ( I was originally going to do a large piece as I have a few but decided why not get something tiny for start offs ) The tattoo which was a very small year, possibly the size of a centipede came up to a total of $100. Cat tells me then, that the min is $100. So you're telling me if I decide to get a tattoo smaller than the piece that I got, more like the size of an ant, that it would still be $100?! That's ridiculous. They lost a customer before I could even become a LOYAL customer. That's how a business continues to remain a BUSINESS. I won't be surprised when this place shuts down. Think about it, this shop could've made thousands with me but instead they played me. Lol oh well their lost. I'll definitely be taking my business elsewhere! I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Don't come here. Go somewhere where you WILL get your money's worth. I wish I never left that deposit but clearly this shop needs the $100 more than I do!! I feel sorry for anyone who steps foot into that shop. Anyway, hope everyone has a blessed day! read more

I took my 11 years old for her second hole ear piercing. The guy pierced them so horribly crooked that we ended up having to take the out the next morning and letting them heal up. The owner asked for pictures and acknowledged that it was bad. He said he would speak to his piercer when he got in later that day and get back to me. That was a month ago. I've reached out twice since then including just now when I was told he was busy and has no time for me. I refreshed his memory and told him I'd write a review and post pics. He wished me luck. read more

I went here for my first tattoo and I love it. I went in pretty nervous and he calmed me down and talked me through it. Even though it was small he took breaks every so often to give me a breather which really helped. Everything was clean and they were extremely professional. read more

The best tattoo parlor in NJ. My tattoo came out clear as day and was treated as one of their own.

Thank you so much Manny over at Screamin' Ink!! I absolutely love my tattoo!! Billy and the guys were so nice and made you feel welcomed! I also loved how the guys showed each other the tattoos they were working on for their thoughts. To me that means you are really dedicated to do a great job for allowing others to critique. Manny is a fantastic artist who did amazing work and chatted with me as if it was just another day. Everytime Manny did something different he always said what it was and explained why he was doing it or what it would do to enhance the artwork. You forget that your even getting a tattoo because it was just so much fun. We will definitely be going back for any more tattoos!! read more

overpriced and arrogant left 50 dollar deposit for appointment, called 24 hours before to move my appt, was told it was not within 48 hours, kept my 50 and wanted me to come in and leave an additional 50 for another appt. couldn't tell you about quality cause never got past the owner and his ridiculous policies and attitude!! read more

I came in for lettering work. Black outline and asked for a simple two color faded fill. The tattoo artist added a third color to the top without mentioning it and hardly faded it- a far stretch from the original discussion. He said the bold color and hard line would fade, but it hasn't- and now people ask me what flag is behind the lettering. I blame myself for not asking to see his portfolio first, but either way I wouldn't go back or recommend to anyone I know. read more

Depends who you get it done by (Ian and Jim W are fkn amazing and probably one of the best this area has to offer!) however, the owner (who has also been on Sopranos in a very minor role in one episode) is a complete ass and very full of himself. The people at this place think they are hot shit and also think they are the only ones within a 50 mile radius who can tattoo you. Way overpriced, and way overrated. You will just be a dollar amount walking into their store, they simply dont care. And yes, I've gotten 2 tattoos here (2 of many). Simply put: You're on the north east, there are MANY quality tattoo places around that will do work for more than half the price, without the attitude. read more

Yeah, they start off all nice and friendly... But, when you bring to their attention a mistake that took place in the shop they get all bent out of shape. Girlfriend goes in for a nipple piercing. Massive swelling occurs shes told "ice it", as the balls of the piercing are literally being sucked into her nipple. Knowing this is wrong we go immediately to another shop. Where we find out that the piercing was done completely wrong. She was pierced with a 16g curved barbell. Common knowledge in the piercing profession is that : anything below the neck requires jewelry that is 14g NOTHING LESS. Why you ask? Oh, just a little something called "the cheese wire effect" meaning that should that jewelry get snagged or tugged too hard it can be ripped out of the flesh, just as if a piece of cheese wire was going through it. I contact the "piercer" about a refund. He basically tells me the screw off and to stop contacting him. So I go into the shop with a personal statement from Elayne Angel (the MEDICAL LIAISON for the Association of Professional Piercers) and another statement from Christy, the piercer at Body Inkorperated that fixed the botched piercing. When I come in Billy, the owner isn't there. So the guy behind the desks asks if we can wait - he's gonna call him. Sure, why not I drove all the way to Fair Lawn I can wait.... A few minutes later Billy comes in. We start explaining what was wrong. Showing him the statements. He tells us that we we should've came back into the shop and had it fixed. Sure, we're gonna let the kid that already botched this piercing have another go at it. And ya know what we would've gone back if the piercer even bothered to offer that - remember just "ice it". We spent $110 on this piercing - when you spend that kind of money you expect it to be done right. Apparently, Billy doesnt see it that way and knows more about body piercing than Elayne Angel. He was saying that because we went to a different shop to have it fixed, it was out of his hands. He wasnt understanding that the balls of the piercing were literally being sucked into her nipple! Why? Because the jewelry was too short to accommodate the swelling, which the piercer would've known - had he bothered to MEASURE her. (another rookie mistake). On the way out I asked another guy who was standing outside, that Billy cited as "another expert piercer" "HEY! what do gauge do you pierce a nipple with?!" He stuttered and didn't answer - probably fearing Billy's wrath. I said. "yeah so we'll hand ANOTHER guy that doesn't know anything about piercing a needle and let him pierce away. Welp, we didnt get the $110 - which would've been a drop in the bucket to this Cash Only shop. I never write reviews and I never thought I would until today. Now, I totally understand why so many tattooers have walked away from that shop.... DO NOT GET PIERCED HERE!!! read more

I got my first 3 tattoos done here & after going to other shops, I am really not that impressed with their work. The guys at the shop are very hard to deal with & they don't want any input on the tattoo that is going on YOUR body. Their prices are also ridiculously high for work that is subpar. Besides the shop, it is also extremely hard to find parking there, another flaw in the business. read more

Billy is a total jerk. Unprofessional. Sorry a small ass role in a show and he thinks he can speak to anyone with disrespect. Buy some class and manners you tool read more

I know nothing about tattoos and this review is in no way a reflection on the artists here or their work. But when you plan to spend hundreds of dollars at a shop you expect a least a reasonable amount of respect and appreciation for parting with your hard earned cash by the vendor. What I got here was abuse and disrespect to the point that I'd rather make a pile of money and burn it rather than spend it here. read more

The tattoo I got at screamin ink is beautiful. It's a claddagh and Agent is very talented in Celtic work. It came out as a stunning piece of artwork. Everything else was an absolute nightmare. Everyone who works there is arrogant, rude, and not the least bit helpful. I told them what colors I wanted my tattoo done in and the size I wanted it. As the tattoo is starting, he's telling me that it has to be bigger than I wanted and he won't do the 2 basic colors that I originally asked for, because "that's not the way you do authentic Celtic pieces." I don't care if I said I wanted it looking like glitter and rainbows or something altogether ridiculous. If it's what I want, make your recommendation to me nicely- don't just start on the tattoo going "it's my way or the highway." Not only that, but for 3 1/2 hours and a 5 inch by 5 inch piece, they charged me $500 after quoting me $350. I loved the final outcome, but I still will not go back just due to the way they handle business. My friend acterwards went to give them another shot and got three words tattooed under her left breast. She was charged $200 for three simple words and the guy that worked on her gave attitude because she was getting such a small piece and not anything bigger and more worth his time. I got much better service and work up the street at Tattoos Express. read more

I went in here with the highest expectations. I found the place to be unprofessional, and quite shady. The guy who was supposed to tattoo me wasn't even the one who drew the sketch I was presented, and after explaining what I didn't like about the sketch, they attempted to explain to me that this was the sketch I wanted, push the tattoo on me, and told me it couldn't be done in color because the sketch wasn't made for color, even though I specifically asked for color... Very disappointed. Looking for a different tattoo shop where the artist who will tattoo will actually draw my sketch also and not try to convince me of getting something I'm obviously unhappy with. read more

They aren't cheap- but I had to go there because of a crappy cheap tattoo that I had to get covered up... So I learned my lesson, you get what you pay for. Agent did a great cover up. He's also pierced me twice and did a great job with those. The owner kept coming by to check on my tattoo every now and then and he was a cool guy to. I really like everyone there. Just go and spend the extra $100 or so- its completely worth it not to have a bad tattoo/piercing. Trust me!! read more

Love this place! Love the staff (old & new)! Love the quality! currently working on my second piece with them (8 total) & it has been the best experience. Love the interaction of the artists.

Makes it worth the time spent designing a piece. very creative & artistically talented. Darren is my go to guy, even when I'm freaking he's very chill and relaxed lol perfect pair!

I am very disappointed with this place. Went to get a simple third piercing on both of my ears (which was $80 by the way, outrageous) and one of the piercings was so lopsided the piercings were not even at all. I had to take one of the piercings out and went to claires to get it repierced and they did 10x better of a job for half of the price. read more
