Hands down the best tattoo shop on LI. I have had a few tattoos at other places so familiar with the process, etc. Sat with Ed, the owner, to discuss my idea and he artfully crafted it into reality. Ed took the time to work up the prefect tattoo from my head to my skin, the detail is insane and realistic factor of the face is just off the charts. His ink skills are second to none. Excellent experience, super clean and professional shop. This will be the only place I go for the rest of my ink. Thank you Ed! **will attach a photo after healing, see for yourself! read more

Tess was absolutely amazing! She took her time to perfect her work and she was so kind and professional. She was very informative about the tattoo, the process and the aftercare. I recommend you book with her!! The shop staff was all friendly and the shop was clean. A great place 10/10 read more

If you're looking for a professional tattoo artist, don't go to Adam. He also reeked of cigarette smoke you've been warned.

I went to the shop off a recommendation from a peer. It was the best decision i made! I went to Edwin for a tattoo correction, then a cover up of a tattoo that i just didn't love. His work is flawless and he is a true artist. Professional, extremely clean and a pleasure to talk to. I didn't feel any pain because we are busy having great conversation or a great movie on. I already have my next appointment scheduled. read more

This is my first time at Tattoo Maven! The guys were really friendly and down to earth! The shop was very nice, clean, and a cool atmosphere. There's parking in the front of the shop, I'm not sure about the back of the shop. Shavon did my tattoo (it was a cover-up). He did a fantastic job (we aren't finished) and I would recommend him totally!!! I'm loving my new tattoo! Thank you! read more

I met Edwin way back when he was working at Lone Wolf Tattoo in Bellmore, started working on my left arm sleeve, 4 years later and a ton of work my arm was complete in 2019, im so happy I met this dude, his attention to detail and photo realism skills are WAY over the top, I highly recommend him for any and all of your ideas, hell take them and make then 100 times better. Will book him once im comfortable to start doing my back piece. read more

Just wanted to update my review I had just came in today to finish a piece we've been working on. Tattoo Maven still showing me that cleanliness and comfort vibe. Very happy with the place I have chosen. Highly suggest you stop on by and check them out. And other great news! Tattoo Maven now does body piercings! The piercer has been doing professional piercing for over 10 yrs! Its nice to see shops take the initiative and hire someone with experience. If you're looking for a piercing I'd give them a call and see when you can get on down. read more

Amazing!!! Clean, professional, welcoming atmosphere. Artists communicate with you about what your looking for. I always come back. I've never been disappointed. Different talents, different strengths, styles vary from each amazing artist. Guaranteed to find one that does what your looking for. read more

I get my tattoos done by Brendan he is a nice dude who usually does Japanese and my brother got a leg sleeve by him and told me to just see his ideas about the tattoo I was looking for. I was kinda nervous since I know he likes focusing on Japanese color and I just wanted something girly but he was insanely nice to me and two months after I got the first one done by him I asked him to do another girly one usually not what he does but when i asked him he just said of course he can I gave him a photo of something similar but told him do whatever he wants. I got the tattoo only a few days a go but I am 100% happy with it and he will be dealing with me and my flower tattoos for as long as he can. read more

Beautiful tattoo shop.. so much bigger then it looks outside. Super clean and professional. Went to get my nose pierced by Greg. This is my third time getting my nose pierced so I thought it was really going to hurt because of the scar tissue, but he did such a great job, I honestly didn't even feel it. Didn't hurt at all! Thanks Greg! read more

There are 1000 shops on LI. Going here at your own peril. Went for a Grim Reaper tattoo. The artist messed it up and had my arm bleeding and swollen mid-way. Said I had to come back to finish it. Two weeks passes I goto my appointment and the artist is nowhere to be found. Never showed up. Another week passes I come to finish it he tells me the way it healed it can be done. So that is where the large black box on the arm comes from. To fix his mistake he made a suggestion which I went with because at that point what choice did I have with a half for Grim Reaper on my arm. Long story short there is a huge black square on my arm which he planned to draw white in. Never said he was making a perfect square it looks INSANE. I had to stop it there the damage was getting out of control. Never complained just said I am going to have it removed thanks for your time I'll come pickup the deposit and the owner refuses to give the deposit back because you "consented" to them screwing up tattoos on your arm. You have no protection here if they make mistakes. It is an atrocious place. Avoid at all costs. There are some more pics of the lovely work it's almost as if it was intentional(wasn't). My arm is ruined. read more

I found this place here on Yelp and it was very helpful. When my daughter turned 18 I took her to get her first tattoo and it was a great experience. The place was spotless. She was very happy and can't wait to get her next one. read more

Edwin is a nice guy and a great artist. I recommended him for my job when I left Lone Wolf, and he's only gone up from there!

Great experience with great results. Have been to many shops over the years. By far the cleanest and best run ever. Will def be returning for more work. read more

Went here once, been thinking about it ever since haha, liked literally every person there, all incredible artists, funny and good vibes. Gavin was my artist he specializes in anime and gaming content, super easy to contact and very professional, just shoot a message and they got you covered. I have my next appointment coming up soon (would be sooner if they had it lol). I'm going to ride out the rest of my work here if they don't kick me out for being eager and trying to book too many appointments at once lol. Already suggested to all my friends and a few of them have already contacted the shop. Thanks again Tattoo Mavin, I had a great time with some great music and a good movie. read more

I was here for the first time in this shop but been a customer of the owner for some time now. He's completed all the artwork on my sleeve.

It's a comfortable environment to relax and gets some ink! read more

I recently have gotten a half sleeve done by Edwin over at Tattoo Maven and I can not say this enough they are literally perfect pieces.

Everyone at the shop is awesome and makes you feel comfortable and just like you are hanging out there. Highest recommendation possible. 10/10. read more

I came across Tattoo Maven in East Islip last night on google & Yelp and decided to give them a buzz... I called like 5 minutes before closing time and the Guy who I can't remember his name was so nice and gave me all the info I needed to be able to come in and get my earrings fixed and put back in correctly & never once rushed me off the phone.. I had a recent surgery and had to have all my earrings taken out and put back In.. I had went some other place prior (which botched me up and bent all my 13 earrings) Any how.. I finally found a Super Nice Professional piercer/tattoo artist this afternoon. Emily Jensen @ Tattoo Maven was amazing.. Not only was the store impeccably clean she was good at what she did and she fixed all my hoops for me!!! Shout out anyone looking for a spot clean , excellent and professional Tattoo Maven East Islip is your spot!! Thanks again Emily!! read more
