    Nose piercing
    Yesenia F.

    I got my nose pierced here and it never healed! I waited 2 years to take it off because I tried EVERYTHING to see if I can get it to heal until I couldn't anymore. Went to a piercing place near by and the guy told me this is the worst piercing he has ever seen done in his 13 years of piercing. DO NOT GET YOUR PIERCING HERE

    So kind talented and amazing artist

    This review is solely regarding Augustin. I was there for my birthday from Cali. This man is the top most amazing artist I ever had the chance to meet let alone tattoo me. I am so so happy and thankful. His work is amazing. He has no idea how talented he is. He even drew Jesus itsnon the back of his business card. Anyhow I am not a kid. Turned 38 and have over 14 pieces from my life. This is by far the best. I would 1000 percent fly back across US just for him to tattoo me again, and mark my word he will do another piece if not section on my body. From a very very satisfy

    Friday the 13th flash tattoo.
    Saul D.

    I was here on business, but I wanted a Friday the 13th flash tattoo. True Love was offering appointments and prepaid work. After looking at the artists on Instagram, I booked with Tina. All the artists had great work, but something about hers spoke to me. I showed up and found they were running around thirty minutes behind. No biggie - especially since most shops were walk-ins and had you waiting around for who knows how long. They brought me upstairs and I met Tina. We briefly went over my flash and the placement I wanted and she got started. She did a great job and really put in some nice details. Fifteen minutes later, I was done and walking away with my first Friday the 13th flash tattoo. I would definitely return here when I'm in Fort a Lauderdale.

    On 06/25 Sunday, I really enjoyed my experience at True Love Tattoo with Mondo. I went in for my 2nd session to complete the 2nd piece. What I love about Mondo is incredibly responsive when I reach out to him. Making an appointment for a consultation was a breeze with Mondo. It feels good when you find someone incredibly warm and welcoming. He spent 4 hours with me on my initial consultation, choosing reference images and talking about ideas and placement. I felt no pressure and was not made to feel like a burden in any way. After the initial consultation, I put down a deposit, and was ready to come in to get my 2nd piece done. The sketches he had created were exactly what I had envisioned on my body, and we spoke about my apprehensions and desired size and placement. Mondo was incredibly supportive through it all and I let him be free in using his expertise in picking my colors and adding his years of experience! On the day of my appointment, I was overjoyed to see the dedication and care that was taken when it came to sanitation, the placement of the stencil, and comfort. As this was my last tattoo and I wanted this piece to be special. I was apprehensive about the pain. It ended up not hurting as much only towards the end of my 5-hour session. While tattooing, Mondo asked whether I'd like to take a break. Though we had prepared for 4 hours, the appointment ended up taking 5 hours. Mondo was super comforting and made sure to take the time to do it right. He really is a perfectionist when it comes to his work & his client, and both him and I are extremely happy with how it turned out. At the end of my 5 hours, he cleaned me up, took pictures and wrapped me up for the healing process. Overall, I am incredibly satisfied with my experience. More importantly, I feel like I have not only found a great artist but made a friend too. He also reaches out to you to make sure you are healing ok and if there are any questions or issues you are encountering after the fact. My husband really liked that he called to check up on his clients. I highly recommend Mondo Arroyo if you're looking to get a piece done at the True Love Tattoo in Fort Lauderdale. Please look him up and he will make your tattoo experience come to LIFE!!! MARIAE

    A perfect piercing.

    So my 17yo daughter has been begging for a nose piercing for a year. And finally, as a birthday present, I relented to her teenage rebellion. Bottom line ... it was a great experience from beginning to end. And spoiler alert! Mom got a piercing too. So let's get into it shall we? I found this shop through yelp. I was impressed with the reviews. I called to ask about piercing restrictions for minors. They explained I would need to fill out a form, get it notarized and that both of us would have to have IDs with us. So my daughter made an appointment online. We got to the shop located in a strip mall off of 17th street. Alyson the piercer was there to greet us. And wow. She was so professional and friendly. She inspected our form, had us sign paperwork and validated our IDs. She explained the nose piercing procedure in detail and showed us the sealed sterilized instruments. She was fantastic with my daughter making her feel extremely comfortable. The procedure was super quick and virtually painless. I started thinking that maybe I should get my navel pierced. It was pierced many many years ago but I took out the piercing maybe 10 years ago. Hey, if my daughter is going through teenage rebellion I can have a midlife crisis! Again, Alyson was great. She first tried to use my original piercing but discovered it was crooked ... something I was aware of and always disliked about my navel ring. She said let's just fix it and make it perfect. And I agreed. And now I love it. The shop is very clean and everyone was welcoming. Masks are worn by all staff and required for customers in the waiting area. Hand sanitizer is provided. And I saw the staff carefully sanitizing between customers. All in all a great mother daughter piercing experience. Highly recommend.

    THIS IS A COVERUP

    Between the artistic talent, cash discounts and energy of the shop you cannot go wrong so happy with my work from Adam.

    New tattoo by Victor
    Jennifer S.

    My friends and I were in town for a cruise and decided on some ink. We are so happy that we chose True Love Tattoo! Alyssa at the desk was so friendly and I can't wait to tell you about our artist Victor! He was absolutely amazing! I got nervous and questioned the placement of my new tattoo and he would not begin till I was 100% ready. His patience was calming. This shop was INCREDIBLY clean and I highly recommend!

    100% will be coming here for my next tattoo with Nirvana, staff was also very safe followed and followed procedures
    Elizabeth A.

    Alyson had great precision giving my belly button piercing, opened everything verified in front of me with gloves. She was very sweet and added to the experience, 10/10 the piercing looks amazing!!! So happy I went here and got it. Updated 7/23/2020 Nirvana did an amazing job on my custom tattoo of exactly what I wanted with her own creative tweaks! They followed COVID procedures and I felt totally safe and comfy getting my first tattoo! Thank you!

    My beautiful tattoo
    helen l.

    It's beautiful. To mark my retirement from MDFR, I got a tattoo. I feel free. Constantine worked her magic with design and colors. It's just gonna get better with age, like me. LOL

    Clearly says $13 tattoos  LMAO Johnny Cheapers is hilarious.
    John C.

    I'm really disappointed with this tattoo shop. I fucking come in for a $13 tattoo for the Friday the 13th special and the sign says clearly $13. My wife and I waited 3 hours and then the young blonde girl loses our paper work and then we go upstairs to Ash, then they say it's $40. What the fuck?!!! I was looking forward to giving them a great review but To no avail. They said walk ins accepted. What the fuck?!!!

    Third little one towards the end. Love it.
    Leila H.

    The past 4 months it's been nothing but issues because they used a flat back earring on our regular third ear lobe. Flat backs are for cartridges, and because they used flat backs on our bottom ears, my daughters was ripped put because it got caught on her clothes, and other ear turned into a mess too. DO NOT LET THEM USE FLAT BACK EARRINGS!!! Don't be a fool.

    Danny did an amazing job on a tattoo in memory of my father.
    Hillary G.

    Listen--I composed this in notes because I am 100% serious. I want to get this right. I'm leaving it on Yelp and Google, because it's important to me to give these wonderful folks credit. I've wanted a tattoo for ages and ages, but I am the world's most anxious baby woman about pain. I'm scared and I'm indecisive. But today I left the house and thought, 'That's it, I'm not going home without a tattoo.' A friend agreed to go with me, and we headed to True Love on the recommendation of a brilliant girl I met at Michael's with the sweetest little ghost tattoo. I was excited. I was terrified. I had no real idea of what I wanted. So I walked in, informed Alyson and Danny that I had no clue what I was doing and didn't want to be a jerk, please have mercy. They were extremely patient and reassuring, and Danny talked me through the whole process of making up my mind and figuring out my best possible option. My father called me "Little Bear," and so I got a tattoo of Papa Bear holding Little Bear in his arms. But the tattoo isn't the best part of today--though it is amazing, down to the delicate strands of fur and the sweetly closed eyes. (Danny is a magical needle wizard, friends.) I texted my mother that I was getting a tattoo as I filled out the paperwork, and she panicked. Guilt, begging, the whole nine. I showed her the result, and she was near tears. She loves it, and what it represents. She can't wait to get tattooed with me next time. I love the design, but I loved the experience even more. Every single person I spoke to--Alyson, Danny, and Erick--was kind, friendly, and genuinely cared about what they were doing and the experience everyone involved came away with. I've been to studios before and walked out with a sour taste in my mouth. I've seen friends leave places looking like a human ":/", all right? This is not that place. I have never felt so genuinely comforted after trips to the spa as I have at a place where I was stabbed in the arm several hundred times. Is that crazy? Maybe. But the artists here enjoy what they're doing, and are absolutely incredible at getting that across. They're friendly, comforting, and just genuinely lovely to be around. I understand why people get 'addicted' to tattoos. This experience was amazing, and I can't wait to go back. Thank you all so much for taking something that scared me so much, and turning it into something magical. I'll be telling everyone I can about you. Trust me--I can't shut up. If you're looking for a tattoo or piercing experience in South Florida that feels like spending an hour or so with good friends, check these guys out. I'm so glad that I did.

    I scheduled an online appointment with "the first available" and that ended up being Vic at the 13th street location. I'm so happy I was able to work with him! He was very professional, but also super personable. He was knowledgeable and very professionally and politely suggested a small change to my tattoo that would visually create a better outcome (I completely agreed and was super thankful for the suggestion). Vic made sure I was completely comfortable throughout the process and I could tell he really cared a lot about his work and his customers. I'm from out of town visiting family in Fort Lauderdale, otherwise I would absolutely have Vic do all of my future tattoos!

I chose the jewelry I preferred and then I waited for a few minutes while the technician went to prepare everything to be sterilized for the procedure. It didn't take long before I was called in. She explained how the process would go and some of the things I would experience which was very helpful to me. The procedure itself had a quick painful moment. It didn't last long at all. Before I realized, we were done and my nose was sparkling with my new piece of jewelry! I wish I remember the name of the technician to give her a shout out, but if you're reading this, you were awesome :) Afterwards, I was explained the healing process and how I needed to take care of my new nose ring. Overall, it was a great experience. I think most importantly to me is that the staff made me feel safe, welcomed, and I felt informed of what was about to happen which me being nervous, made a huge difference! Ps. I think the nose ring looks epic ;) thank you!

    Man, what a great experience…read more I had been toying with the idea of getting a tattoo for some time and kept putting it off and naturally the state of the world had me delay it even more. I begun researching it more recently and then received an email notice from Yelp regarding Ink Addiction and what they were doing to stay safe during these times. I called it a sign and put in a request for a consultation. Making the consultation was easy and within a day or two I was over there, talking to the tattoo artist, Mel who would help me design my overall tattoo. I gave her the concept and outline, she did the rest. The consult took about 15 minutes and an appointment was made. There is $100 deposit you must put down to hold the reservation that ultimately goes toward the price of your tattoo. She gives you the rate and then the appointment is scheduled. A few days later I was back. Due to social distancing and such, it was just her and I in the shop. I noticed immediately just how clean this place was. I wish some restaurants looked this good. The session took four hours (exactly what she promised me). And I couldn't be happier with the results. She took her time with everything, applying ointment so my skin wouldn't dry out. She took pristine care of my tattoo and of me. She offered me breaks if needed and was really easy to work with. Honestly, I couldn't be happier with it if I tried. I have zero complaints. I always say after this I'm done, but I'm sure I'm not and I'll absolutely be going back to Ink Addiction for my future tattoo.

    Went here on a quick trip we were on , here is my review:…read more Staff friendly , funny and actually listen to what you are asking for. Decent prices great artists. I had a small cover up from a dragonfly to a bat it turned out better than I ever thought it could being so small my artist really did great with the details and you cannot see the old tat at all. I would recommend this place 100 percent its very clean and not over crowded like some shops. Also Bob Ross art videos a bonus. If I am ever in Ft Lauderdale again I will definitely pay them a visit. If you are in the market for a tattoo you should visit them too ...cheer's

    My adult son and daughter got sibling tattoos here the day after Christmas (a Snoopy and…read moreWoodstock). And they loved the place. Well, they got their love for Snoopy from me, the collector. So, immediately, I wanted one, too. I have had four tattoos before, all cosmetic (2 eyebrows and 2 eyeliners). So this was a senior citizen whim fueled by my great love for Snoopy and wanting to have something done to match my kids. But I also wanted a purple rose, my favorite flower with my favorite color. So my daughter and I went to the shop. She had an old (not-so-good) cherry blossom tattoo redone, and I got my Snoopy with a purple rose. We absolutely love them! The artists are extremely friendly, oozing with talent, and work with you to get a rendition of exactly what you want before they ink the tattoo. (Shout-out to Jose and Cesar!) The place is very professional, clean (spotless), and bright. You even get to see the unopened ink (and it's expiration date) before it is used on you. They use a topical agent to lessen the pain. But it really was minimal and well worth it for the final product. Prices are reasonable. You can get an estimate before the work begins. P.S. I decided to add a smile to my Snoopy, and they did it the next day without any hassles and at no extra charge!

    I've had quite a few tattoos all in different cities with different artist , and True Love exceeded…read moremy expectations. My husband and I always pass the shop by when we're headed to the restaurant next-door so finally we were able to dip our feet in the water through the Friday the 13th flash tattoo special. What I found amazing about the special was that it was extremely organized. Most shops that host Friday the 13th tattoos are always slammed, pricey, and even after waiting in line for hours and filling out forms, it's not even guaranteed that you will be able to get tattooed. Earlier this week the owner announced on the Instagram story feed that they would be hosting Friday the 13th tattoos. He listed out all instructions, and that individuals who were looking to get tattooed could come in Wednesday and Thursday preselect their artist designs and appointment times for Friday that way it insured everyone was able to get a chance to get a tattoo and it flowed smoothly for the artist. If you did sign up for an appointment ahead of time you only paid $30, if you decided to come in day of and there were appointments available it would be $50. They also offered $31 off of piercings so I went in early, decided to take them up on the special. I selected Amanda as my artist and a cute cat design. This gave me the opportunity to meet her since I follow her on Instagram and loved all of her designs, but I haven't been able to commit to a bicep piece until I could see firsthand how well she did with a smaller tattoo. I have PTSD from running into a few artist who screwed up a few of my tattoos, and resulted in cover ups or chewed up my skin so bad it left scarring. The shop was immaculate and sterile . It smelled cleaner than a doctors office. Amanda was kind quick, but did a thorough job with my tattoo I barely felt any pain throughout the process. The only time I felt something was when she decided to clean the tattoo with alcohol then there was a slight burn. I loved the end result and I hope to set up a conversation with her soon to discuss and bigger piece. The whole staff was amazing including the receptionist who actually remembered me when I came back. The owner took be by surprise at how approachable and kind he was. I've met a few others who were stuck up, off putting, or wouldn't give you the time of day. He was the complete opposite and even spoke to husband for awhile about designs for Japanese tattoos. If you're looking for a shop of talented and kind artist i highly recommend checking out one of their two locations. You can review artist profiles on their website or call if you have any questions.
