This review is extremely overdue. A previous shop, Kinetic Tattoo in Levittown botched by fiancées…read moretattoo quite literally beyond belief. We went all over the island looking for help fixing it and everyone suggested laser removal with the promise of redoing it after the laser removed the tattoo. We went to Kings Avenue tattoo and words can't even describe how great this place is. It's upscale, clean, and professional. We met with a tall thin man with a shaved head (his name escapes me) and he immediately validated us and asked what he can do. My fiancee cried and he was extremely empathetic and sat with us for a long time talking about options. He was the only place who said he could do ANYTHING besides laser. We told him he could have complete artistic freedom as long as it didn't look so obviously botched. He told us to come back for an appointment and he would see what would be possible. No exaggeration, the artist worked complete magic. He actually took zero artistic freedom and somehow fixed it to how it was originally supposed to be. The tattoo is almost perfect and when we showed people afterwards they could not believe the difference. I am extremely detail oriented and I stared at the tattoo for a long time and it was literally perfect. If the original had come out like that, we would've been thrilled. If the owner reading this remembers this travesty we brought in and can remind me of the artists name, he and the original man we spoke to were saints. This is the only place we and our family would ever go for more tattoos, this place deserves to stay open forever. Thank you so so much for saving something as permanent and emotionally based as a tattoo, it means more than we can say.

From the moment you walk into the door you're greater with chill music, a welcoming atmosphere,…read moresuper friendly owner and staff. They offer you water and coffee while you wait. They chat you up a bit and then you meet your artist. In my case I had Chris Raft who was an expert in eastern and Japanese traditional tattoos. He draws up an example, prints it out and brings you back into the room. This place has separate rooms for each artist. Super clean and upscale looking. He laid down the stencil making sure it's positioned in the exact way wanted. He laid down the finest outline I ever had, filled it in with color that was flawless in every way. Talking the whole time making me feel comfortable. Super cool guy, when it's all done give you the opportunity to review it, take your photos for the gram, and gives you two different ways of protecting it. They have a second skin and the old school way of protecting your investment. The prices here are on the higher end but the services justified the price. You have to remember this is a permanent investment and you shouldn't go by price alone. I will be coming back here to get more work done with Chis in the very near future.

It's been 10+ years since I've been in the piercing chair...I was definitely overdue!…read more Upon walking in I was immediately greeted. I spoke to Jess about what I wanted, and explained an issue I was having with a current piercing. Jess listened to all of concerns and about what I wanted for my new piercing. She didn't rush me and actually listened and gave me feedback. Then, in the chair I was. Before I knew it Jess took care of one of my piercings and then I had the new piercing I wanted. Jess had such a gentle touch and made sure I was comfortable. We even made some small talk during the short piercing process. I will absolutely be back for all my piercing needs as well as when I decide what my next tattoo will be. The shop itself was very clean. Great music playing as well. 5 stars all the way!

We were looking forward to "you get what you get, and you don't get upset." I ended up getting a Poker Hand and my daughter got a Cat. Something normal that we both would have chosen. Our artist was Brooke, and she was just so lovely and friendly and appreciated what we were trying to do with the random tattoos. She was excellent, I highly recommend her. We had so much fun with the randomness, we absolutely would do it again. Shop and procedures were very clean.

He has done some amazing work for me, to the point that I have had people literally study the line work because it is **that** perfect. Somehow, and I don't know why, his work also heals very quickly, and he's just an all around great guy to sit with. I wish I had the money to go back every time I have an idea instead of keeping them in a folder. And when you have to wait a month or more for an appointment? Don't give up and go somewhere else -- it is worth the wait. You want the best? This is where you get it.
