Reviews of Northeast Tattoo & Fade Away Laser Tattoo Removal (Plastic Surgery)

Alex Piletich

Great shop and great people working there. I got my first tattoo there and Brian is an awesome artist shown by the line work and the shading in the tattoo he had done.

Andrew Dumas

Joseph was superb. He answered all of my queations completely and was honest about everything upfront. He has an immense amount of knowledge about tattoo removal and I would recommend to anyone looking for this service.

Dayna Landgrebe

What a great experience! My friend and I each got tattoos together from Kaily McKee. Kaily did a wonderful job, and had great communication throughout the whole process - from coming up with a design to the actual tattooing. Very professional, personable, and fun to work with. I will be back - thanks!

Nicole Hart

My mother has has the laser removal here & I decided to get decorated during her session. Still loving my septum! Excellent staff. Love this place

John Healy

Had a great first experience at the shop. I’d highly recommend booking with Sean. He was precise, friendly, and considerate. Very pleased with the final product, I plan on meeting with him again!

Anthony Pierpont

Great service and knowledgeable staff. I have had a very large tattoo that needed to be removed. The staff and owner have treated me like a VIP every time I walk in the door. The building is clean and well kept. If you are ready to remove a tattoo this is the place to go.

Holly Brunson

I have had over 5 laser sessions completed within the past year. I am always impressed by the professional staff and quality of care they provide. My favorite part of my experience is simply the fact that all of the staff I have worked with are genuinely friendly, kind, and funny. I would, without a doubt, recommend Fade Away Laser Tattoo Removal to any/all of my friends!

Benjamin Beierman

I did a ton of research before choosing NE Tattoo and I'm glad I did — plain and simple, they're the best. Joseph has done a phenomenal job removing my tattoo. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about the process and the technology behind it, but he's also very personable and makes the entire process as painless as possible.

Lou Hicks

Fast and professional, with excellent results on my work so far. I have been impressed at how quickly the laser has faded my work, and conscientious the technicians have been.

Robin Anderson-Park

My in office visit was very smooth and professional. They answered all my questions with out being snobbish and seemed to truly care about the process and my comfort level throughout. The only complaint I would have is in the communication. I emailed them through their info email as a follow up to my initial appointment, which I had made online...but they never responded to that email. However, once I arrived, everything seemed to be taken care of and I was in and out within 40-45 minutes. Quite quickly considering I had two tattoos done. Overall, a very positive experience! I would recommend them to anyone wanting to remove a tattoo.

Logan Baxter

Walked in with a friend from out of town looking for flash work. We had literally been kicked out of a different shop earlier because we only had 1 day to get the tattoos done. These guys were amazing and I will 100% be returning the atmosphere of this place alone makes it worth it. It’s truly a gem when it comes to the hundreds of Minneapolis Tattoo shops! Ask for Sean he does great work.

Laurel S

Going through the tattoo removal process. Both Brent and Joseph are experts and will talk you through the process. If you are looking to get a tattoo removed, these are your guys.

Katherine Downing

The atmosphere at NE is relaxed, fun, and safe. The staff makes you feel welcome and they treat you with respect. Alek's has done a fantastic job of decorating and has made it bright and inviting. The stations are clean and organized, you can tell that it is a safe place to get tattooed. I went to NE Tattoo to get my first tattoo done by Brian. I got a beautiful chickadee and pansy piece on my left rib cage. Now, this is supposedly the worst spot to get tattooed, especially for your first one! Knowing this going in I was expecting the worst but as Brian started he went slow and made sure I was comfortable. Yes, it hurt a ton but Brian made it bearable and we took a couple of breaks whenever I needed them. He was fantastic and did the most AMAZING job! I could not have asked for a better piece of permanent art on my body. I have also had a piercing done here. It was done by Mary who is a wonderful person. She is outgoing, personable and makes you feel comfortable when getting something pierced. She is very knowledgeable about her craft and can answer any questions that you have for her. All around, this shop is one of a kind and the only place I will get my tattoos or piercings. Everyone should check it out!!

Sara Parkman

I went as a walk-in today and was greeted with smiles and laughter! Not only did my tattoo turn out wonderfully, the entire staff was awesome! Professional and down to earth. Cool Vibe. I will be going back to them for more tattoos!

Brandon Hernandez

I've got a few tattoos and they've each been done at a different shop. Every time I've gone, my biggest fear has been how I will be treated when I walk through the door. I'll admit, I've had some pretty terrible experiences at tattoo shops (that I didn't end up getting work done at). Rude and/or unhelpful staff, being rushed through the process etc. Knowing that this piece of art is on your body for life, not only do I want to feel comfortable about where I get it done, I want to feel comfortable with the staff and the artist who is going to be doing the work. Northeast Tattoo over delivered in every possible way. From the second we walked in (my sister, friend and I went together to get coordinating tattoos) I knew we made the right decision. The employee at the front desk was unbelievably helpful in understanding what we wanted to have done and setting us up with an artist who was able to help us through the process. We worked with Kaily and I couldn't be happier. She was patient, willing to work with us until we felt 100% about the final plan for our tattoos and just an all around friendly person. She was diligent in cleanliness before each of our tattoos (as were all the other artists who were working in the space). I ended up having to adjust the placement of my tattoo 4 times prior to having her start the work and not once was I made to feel like a nuisance - in fact it was quite the opposite. Knowing that Kaily wanted my tattoo to be as perfect as I did and that she was willing to take as much time as needed to ensure the outcome was just that, perfect, is really admirable. I've found my go-to spot and will happily recommend Northeast Tattoo for anyone looking for a place to go!

Samantha Sleeman

I had a very good experience getting my latest tattoo here. Haley was great to work with, added her own flare to my design and was able to fit me into her schedule fairly quickly.

Tim Suggs

These guys are super nice! If I was ever going to get a tatoo I would get one here!

Shannon S

Knowledgeable staff and very friendly. The consultation was very thoroughly and one of the best I have had. They know what they are doing and what they are talking about. I have over 15 years in the customer service industry and they are top notch. I highly recommend them if you are thinking about laser tattoo removal, you will not be disappointed by their expertise!

Nina Banducci

Okay so.... this place is .....AWESOME. Amazing service, really friendly and personable staff. I went in to get a piercing today - and Jeff was the coolest most calming, legit individual e.v.e.r. For whatever reason I always get super worked up when it comes to new tattoos and piercings - and he was just like...pure zen. Totally recommend this place to anyone and everyone. do it.

I had my first experience with NE Tattoo when Sam was still working there (last Spring). The shop was very professional, and he did great work. We were working on a full sleeve, so I had several sessions booked over the course of a few months. When I called to cancel my last appointment with Sam a couple of months ago, I was told he no longer worked there, and they didn't know where he went. I didn't know Sam's last name so I couldn't search for him. Having no reason to distrust this place, I went back to NE Tattoo and went with another artist (Spencer Hodgson). We agreed on a design for my back, to go along with a piece I already had. Spencer is a really good artist and the work was what we agreed on; however, over the first few days following the work he did, it appealed to me less and less. It just didn't work with what I already have on my back. I decided to have it removed and went to a laser clinic in my neighborhood. While at the shop, I learned that Sam Dunn is indeed still working in the metro area (Holy Mackerel Tattoo), AND the staff at NE Tattoo knew this all along! So now I'm not only stuck with a piece I don't want, but also with the added expense of having it removed. I have no gripes with Spencer; it's the employees who lied to my face about not knowing where Sam went. ALL OF THIS could have been avoided if they were honest. Apparently that was too much to ask.

Ryan Ellingson

This place is awesome. I enjoy coming here. Joseph is just an awesome human being and it is worth coming here to talk to him.

Elsa Swenson

Northeast Tattoo has the friendliest staff, so many incredible artists, and have such reasonable pricing that is absolutely worth every penny! These folks are definitely worth trusting with these important decisions. I highly recommend them!

TheFlymomma2 .

Just had my first laser removal session with Scott , although the process itself was far more excruciating than I anticipated, (scott forgot to mention this detail) the experience was awesome. The expertise and professionalism far exceeded my expectations and it is definitely appreciated. Scott is a very knowledgeable and relateable professional and provides his service and explains things in the simplest way so you are confident and totally informed instead of the confusing and less informative approach and he is just all around an awesome guy who knows what he is doing , he takes general interest in your situation and hes committed to providing the best service and best results possible and it shows, but dont be fooled by his friendly demeanor he is going to cause you extreme pain!!! Highbridge tattoo is a quality shop with quality professionals im impressed completely!

Josie Evans

Been coming a couple years for removal and can not say enough great things about the service. Thank you for making a painful process much easier to endure. Progress is progress and I appreciate the efforts here. Much love ❤️

Tammy Englund

I am getting my first removal of a fairly large tattoo done by Joseph (tattoo was done elsewhere) . He is wonderful at what he does. Explains everything thoroughly so I knew what to expect. He has a very good chair side manor and he is very knowledgeable. It went very smoothly and I am excited to have started the process.

nick foerster

Northeast tattoo is what's up!

Ivan FIgueroa

I had an appointment set up with Haley Adams to get a small traditional tattoo done. The appointment was set for 1 PM. I arrived 5 minutes late and had to wait an extra 45 minutes to finally get called back because she was dealing with another client and also setting up slowly. I should have just walked out. The tattoo itself is very mediocre. I was only charged $100 but I would suggest looking elsewhere to get your work done.

Thomas Le Vasseur

These people really know their craft!! I like many went out and got a tattoo when I turned 18 and no longer like it. I have been seeing Joseph for over a year now to have an unwanted tattoo removed. He consistently documents each visit in both photos and writing in order to ensure progress is made and so that I can also see the progression of the removal, all while ensuring the integrity of my skin is not compromised in the process. Marty goes out of his way to make sure I get my next appointment when it is most convenient for me. All of these things and the fact they are in fact very affordable keep me coming back. As a service provider myself I appreciate the attention to detail and value of service I receive at Ne Tattoo & Laser Tattoo Removal I repeatedly recommend these guys to my clients and anyone that asks me about laser tattoo removal. Oh and the atmosphere is pretty great to boot! Thomas

melanie vossen

Comfortable setting with awesome artists! I will definitely be coming back in the future!

amel biscevic

Excellent design, work, experience, and quality - boys and girls were great to work with.

Davio Tamatoa

I was very impressed by the shop. The team there is very nice, welcoming and professional. I come from overseas and welcomed in the shop right away. I would highly recommend it to all my friend and family.

Coral Christesen

I started going here for laser removal because my boyfriend had been coming to them to get AMAZING tattoos from them for many years and he always bragged about how much he loved it there. I had been quoted by many other laser removal places before and I must say North East had the best in prices and amazing quality. Laser removal can be scary, and they always make me feel very comfortable and try to make it as easy as possible for me. I have had at least 10 total sessions between my 4 tattoos and this is the only place I will go and refer other people to go. The manager Alex is so nice, cool and professional! Great place to go for tattoos, piercings or laser!

Aaron League

You go into a tattoo studio with a carefully crafted idea of a graphic depiction of some significant aspect of yourself. I believe that, aside from maintenance of a medically sterile environment, the most important task of a tattoo artist is to take this cherished emblem from you and invest himself in it without overpowering the original concept. I wish I could rate only quality; nothing else matters. I entrusted my concept to Sam, and he gave me the most badass tattoo I've ever seen. What else do I need to say?

Kari Miller

I've had a great experience every time! I am seeing results over a period of time and well worth it!

Shane Setzer

My friend and I have been seeing Joseph for over a year now. All I can say is, for as painful tattoo removal is, he makes the experience awesome. He's very professional, the shop is sanitary and clean, and I highly recommend getting your mistake removed there.

Kayla Felten

Jeff is a rockstar! Just got my nose pierced and was a super baby about it, but he was super funny and did an awesome job! The entire process lasted 10 minutes and was pretty painless. I will definitely return to Northeast Tattoo for any future piercings!

Frances Jarmick

Just went into get my "smiley". Its a piercing I've wanted for a while, but was a little bit squeamish about the idea of getting a piercing in my mouth. Mary Todryk made me feel very relaxed, made sure the jewelry fit the shape of my mouth and was appropriate for my anatomy. Almost no pain (slight prick), bleeding, or swelling. Its an hour later and it feels healed already. I got a basic CBR for the piercing, but the special order selection available at Northeast Tattoo makes me excited to come back and switch it out. I would recommend her services to any and all interested parties.

Karen Anderson

A few months ago I stopped in to northeast tattoo to get another tattoo from my artist Peter McLeod and they told me that he had quit tattooing, which was a big fat lie! I googled his name on my iphone and found his website. He is working at a new shop not too far from northeast tattoo. I feel so insulted by these people that they think I'm dumb enough to believe that he quit tattooing. Why would they say that? It make no sense to me and will never go back. I'm glad I found Peter's new shop and Peter even apologized for the treatment I got at his old shop and he couldn't believe that happened. He will always do ALL my tattoos no matter what shop he works at.

Jennifer Turcotte

I've been going here for the past three-four years and from day one they've always been great. very knowledgable and explains everything for you to easily understand the process. I refer everyone to them!

jo earhart

Very professional staff and excellent results! I highly recommend Northeast Tattoo and Fade Away services.

Cassie Carney

Northeast Tattoo is the best place in the cities to get your tattoo. The business is clean and the artists are very professional. My tattoo was done by Jeff. I would recommend him to anyone that will ask. He explained every step of the process along the way. The best part was his artwork. I took him some artwork and he created it again because some of the elements where not perfect.

Staci T

I would totally recommend anyone searching for a creative, talented and super friendly tattoo artist. I had a great experience! I love my piece and plan on returning here for my next piece. Kaily was super helpful and was willing to help me place the stencil multiple times (in different spots) to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. Thank you Northeast Tattoo!

Stacey Minion

I had an appointment set for noon to get a small wrist tattoo. When I got there the receptionist told me my artist, Teddy, was about to eat lunch and would be with me in a bit ... okay(?), so much for my appointment. While I was waiting she printed off two different font options of my tattoo and asked which I preferred. I told her I didn't like the first one but liked the second one. I went to sit down to wait again.. after waiting 40 MINUTES (with no updates from them about how long it would take, or questions about what I wanted) I went up to the counter to ask if it was going to be much longer, the receptionist said he was almost done with a drawing. After about 10 minutes more, (seriously, this was the world's smallest tattoo, how long could it really take) I went up again saying I had somewhere to be soon. FINALLY Teddy came to the window with an outline of the tattoo I said I did NOT want -- what?! After a few more minutes dealing with him (he was very unprofessional) I decided to leave. An hour wasted and no tattoo :(. I went to The Holy Mackerel instead, had an AWESOME, professional, and fun experience and now have a sweet tattoo! I only give it one star because there was another employee there (shout out to the guy who's an avid fan of cooking shows) who was pleasant and talked to us while we waited.

Greg Chamberlain

I didn't think it would be possible to say something nice about people that cause me so much pain but here I go. Getting three tattoos removed burns like hell but these guys make it a good experience. I am six sessions in and each tattoo is responding at a different pace. I know that when i go back there will be good music good conversation and a laser that burns me. Maybe I am becoming a bit of a puss in my advanced age but it hurts worse and takes longer than getting them in the first place. I will go back and keep going back until they are gone for reasons only I know. I appreciate their knowledge about the process and the truth they speak. They are very honest about how long it may take and seem to enjoy the whole laser attacking color aspect of the process like artists. I also like that it is a comfortable environment and not a dermatologist office. You will not be judged and your tattoo will slowly disappear. You will even get to see others getting some ink as you walk out. If i could give 6 stars i would.

Deb

After going to a couple of dermatologists and having them tell me they didn't know if they could help me and that it would probably take several sessions and end up costing me hundreds of dollars to get my small tattoo removed, I decided to skip it. Then I read about Northeast Tattoo removal and decided to make an appointment last May. Brent was awesome and extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He talked with me and my husband about the whole procedure before he did the lasering which only took about 5-10 minutes. It was a small tattoo I did myself when I was younger and have been wanting it removed for quite some time. After one session it was almost completely gone but I decided to come back and have him do the rest of it. Brent was very professional and friendly and told me there would be no charge for my second visit. So instead of paying hundreds of dollars to a dermatologist who wasn't very friendly at all... I was only charged $60 at Northeast Tattoo. I would highly recommend Brent and Northeast Tatto! Thank you so much!

Scarlett

Really nice place. Friendly and talented artists. Been here a handful of times and always happy to come back. Jack does great work. Highly recommend.

Almin Ramic

Would not go to different tattoo place when in Minnesota!

Matthew Shekey

Went in there on a whim just to see what the shop was like and after talking to the piercer I decided to go ahead a get two tarsus piercings done. Lot less pain than the other shop I went to and quicker too. Really liked the experience and talking with the knowledgable staff. Price was fair. Also had some little tattoos done and a touch up on an old one. Jack was good. They look great, minimal pain and price was sort of bundle deal. I'd recommend these guys any day of the week.Going back next week for more tat work.

Erin Miller

Always a great experience when I go in here, very clean shop and friendly staff. I've gone in a few times to get jewelry changed or pierced and always very quick and painless. Prices have always been cheaper than most places I've been, plus great experiences here so I'll definitely continue recommending this shop.

leah benard

I mean honestly kinda upset with this place. I have had over 10 removals and it's just lightened up so I went to another tattoo removal shop for a consult and they were in shock when I told them how many times I've gone .. specially when the tattoo itself is pretty light and smaller . I've spent over 1,000 already on 2 tattoos...

Trevor Nelson

Great job

Debi Richter

Joseph is such a kind and gentle professional, and although it hurts, he makes the experience pleasant. I would highly recommend Joseph for tattoo removal!

Chasity Eustice

Sean did a great job and I will definitely be back again!

Robert Coleman IV

Joesph is a great dude and a true professional. Unequivocal in my support and appreciation for this business.

Sharon Record

Just left from getting my very first tattoo! It is something so meaningful to me life and I wouldn't of gone anywhere else to get it done. Great price, great experience. Great place

melinda kordich

I LOVED this place-they were all incredibly awesome-explained everything, made us feel cared for and important, can't say enough about how great they are

Jaime Christmas

Not only is Joe a stand up guy who really cares about his clients, but he makes a seemingly uncomfortable process comfortable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in need of tattoo removal. Chill vibes, clean, great neighborhood, professional, good prices, and humans of the highest quality:)

Kendra Hubbell

This was the seventh time I had gotten my nose pierced and Aleks did a great job. He was welcoming, funny and interesting to talk with. He made it comfortable and even though painful, it was professional and a fun experience. I love Northeast Tattoo and have been there multiple times. I love it and recommend it for anyone who wants friendly service and a fun time!

RL 248

Zak has done 2 tattoos for me; a Raiders tattoo, which is absolutely flawless, and is now working on a headpool tattoo for me. I can't say enough about his professionalism and artist ability, I will never go to anyone else.

Michael Hilliard

The artist Aaron is a beast. Good prices and friendly atmosphere

Ashley Munn

They seem friendly when i was talking with them

missherron123 .

I was nervous when I went in but it actually was so simple!! Joe is awesome!!

Jaime Lehmann

I've had a few tattoos done at NE tattoo by Kaily and she is always very professional and friendly with a unique style.

Justin Burckhard

Great Shop. Awesome staff. I've received two laser removal sessions as well as a touch up on a couple faded tattoos. The guys and gals there are super helpful and knowledgable making the experience both comfortable and easy. I highly recommend it!!

Deidra Boyd

After researching laser tattoo removal I set up an appointment to meet with Joseph. He answered all questions and concerns I had with confidence and even covered things I hadn't even thought of. They are all awesome, professional, and clean. I would recommend these guys to anyone considering removal, or even piercing and tattoo!

John Kisch

I've been living with some horrendous art work on my body for 35 years now and finally decided it was time to get it removed. After discussing the treatment and process with the people from Fadeaway I made the decissio to get it done. my first appointment with Brent went smooth, a small amount of pain but nothing one can't bear. Brent was very helpful and did everything to ensure my comfort. In and out in 20 minutes and after an hour or so it was like nothing happened. Give them a shout when you get tired of your old work. Great experience, great facility, great location. I highly recommend this facility.

Nadia S

Got my first tattoo here with John after a recommendation from a friend. It was an AMAZING experience! I couldn't have picked a better place. I was also very impressed with the professionalism. Definitely going back to him for a second one!!

Connor Flood

Kailey Did my first ever tattoo today and it was a wonderful experience! She is super laid back and easy to talk to, and makes sure that everything is exactly how you want it to look. Would definitely go back for another piece

Lori Cyrus-Satter

Clean and welcoming business. Kaily is very thorough and talented. I will definitely return!

Susannah Harris

Laser tattoo removal: not that bad! Everyone always says it's worse than getting the actual tattoo. Not so! 1. Doesn't take as long (4 min vs 3 hours) 2. My arm didn't look like raw packaged meat 3. Afterwards, feels like a minor sunburn but that's already subsided significantly (12 hours later) 4. Hurts way WAY less than getting the tattoo. So if you're looking to get a tattoo removed, go for it! And go here!

Johnathan De l'Orme

I had a $300. budget and went in with the intention of getting a tattoo. I am not joking when I say this... A dirty looking long haired homeless person wearing cowboy boots and stinking of booze walked up with a surly attitude to talk to me about my idea... he instantly sneered when he heard what I wanted, a skinny anorexic woman standing behind him felt the need to give me her input and talk down to me about my idea. They both thought they were witty and hilarious making fun of my tattoo idea.. I walked out feeling insulted... my idea was obviously not up to their standard of cool. I will not be giving them any of my business.

Javier Rezola

I had my tattoo done here on 3/9. This was my first tattoo and I had a great experience at this place. The facility was clean and inviting. The artist (Jordan M) was friendly and the work he did turned out awesome! I liked how they thoroughly explained how to take care of your tattoo during the healing process. I would definitely recommend this place to get your ink work done and I would definitely be coming back for any future work.

Lei lei bambino

I was researching different places to get my Tragus pierced and I came across this Northeast Tattoo shop. The staff is friendly and the prices are AFFORDABLE, a nice breath of fresh air compared to almost every other tattoo and pierce shop out there. Jeff pierced my Tragus and did an excellent job matching it up with the current tragus piercing in my other ear. AND he even let me come in at a moments notice when I needed something tweaked! I'll return here whenever I want more work done.

Lori Meyer

Aaron Matthews drew and redrew my tattoo until it was right. He works fast enough that you aren't questioning all your decisions, but slow enough that the results are amazing. He's done my two most recent tattoos and set the yardstick for what my old tattoos need to become (in fact, he'll be freshening those up soon). HIGHLY recommend Aaron.

alyssa Warren

I went to Northeast Tattoo last friday to inquire about getting a triple forward helix piercing (not at all a usual piercing). Jeff (the piercer), was so friendly, easy going, and relaxed throughout the whole process. Not to mention he did more than amazing at giving me the EXACT piercing that I wanted. It was so perfect I almost couldnt believe it at first (considering how difficult it was to pierce in that specific spot). And it is already almost healed and I got it 3 days ago! I went to a different tattoo shop previous to going to Northeast and they were giving me all this run around about how they couldnt do this piercing on me and were trying to charge me way more for something that I didnt even want. Jeff was freaking awesome and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to get pierced. This guy is a perfectionist, took his time, and gave me exactly what I wanted no questions asked! Jeff you are amazing! -Alyssa

Radovan Duvnjak

Great shop and great people working there. I got my first tattoo there and and they did amazing job

C D

Jeff changed my new septum piercing today and it was great. Quick and easy and close to my house. Staff all seem friendly and the shop is really awesome inside.

Kaylee Curtis

We went there and they were suppose to be open on Sundays at 12pm. We waited until almost 12:30. Never coming back for business. Never been so mad it's disappointing.

Alex Lema

Thank you Jack! I will be coming back!

Dan Akerson

Got a beautiful dead tattoo from John Laramy. A great place with really great staff, they made the 4 hour session go by. The tattoo and experience far exceeded my expectations.

Taylor R

I ended up at Northeast Tattoo & Laser Tattoo Removal after reading the article Tattoo Removal: the cost to erase ink posted to Kare11's website. I scheduled an appointment and met with Joseph for a consultation a few days later. The staff was polite, Joseph was extremely knowledgeable and honest about the process. It did freak me out that there would be no numbing cream, but they do give you ice and given how small my tattoo was it wasn't a major concern for me. I went in for my first treatment shortly after I had my consultation. It went just as I was told it would and I look forward to working with Joseph until my tattoo is fully removed. I would recommend this shop to anyone who asked, not only because of my satisfaction with the staff and cleanliness of the shop but also for the affordability. Look no further!

Andrew Reitz

Joe is a very friendly lazerist. He explains everything very well and the processes is very smooth. Prices are good too.

Dan Young

Great people, great service, and hella good tattoos!

Susie H

This is my 2nd time with Joseph. I think the outcome with be great. The 1st session was a long time ago and I saw results, so this 2nd one, I am excited to see the new results! I recommend!

Jessica D

I have gone to northeast tattoo for ALL of my piercings and tattoo, and would not go anywhere else! if your looking for a good reliable and professional tattoo shop this is the place to go! Jeff was the artist for my most recent tattoo and he did an amazing job! He helped with placement and drawing it out so it was PERFECT. Jeff and the rest of the staff at northeast are all great at their jobs and i recommend that everyone at least look into getting their next tattoo here. you wont regret it!

Tay Griffin

Kaily is the bees knees! She is an amazing artist and is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure the client gets exactly what they want. Like others have said, she's moved stencils for me multiple times and tweaked designs and I have never once felt like a nuisance for asking. I am so sad I'm moving because Kaily is my favorite tattooist in MN!

Donielle Palladino

Joseph and Northeast Tattoo & Fade Away Laser Tattoo Removal are all nothing short than professional! Joseph shares his (expansive) knowledge of the process and takes his time to ensure you understand not only how the session will go but the process of laser removal itself, the how and whys of it all. Not going to lie, the laser hurts like a mofo! (but oh so worth it!) Same as tattooing, depending on body part etc pain will be less or more. The awesome part is that he's lightning quick and was over before I thought he was even half way finished. Joseph ensures your comfort, not rushed, offers breaks etc. Other niceties, the shop deco is fab, clean and what it should be. They're tech savvy so you don't have to deal with annoying paperwork or writing down appointments (always a bonus) and their pricing is right on! Oh, pricing.. it's per session so there's no gimmicky package or upfront commit.. pay as you go, as needed. If you're looking for tattoo removal, you've found your spot! I

Adam Sekelsky

The consultation was really informative and there was no pressure to proceed! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly and scheduling was really convenient. Very impressed!

Salome Nerayo

I have gotten 3 tattoos and one piercing here. The staff is always friendly and fun, but they are still professional. They do great work and give great after care instructions. If you come to your appointment on time, you will be seen on time. The overall atmosphere is great and when you're a repeat customer you feel like family.

Jamie Zephyr

Came in for a consultation and talked to Joseph who did a great job explaining the process of Fade Away tattoos which take as long as they take to remove. Was deciding between covering up or removing and ultimately decided to go with a cover up. Worked with Sean Strick who did a great detailed piece of art that made the cover up look amazing! Really happy with the end result and glad I came in. Will definitely come back to get more work done in the future. Thank you!

Nick Erdos

I'm getting a half sleeve done at the moment by Sam Dunn. I'm really impressed at the attention to detail and cost of the sessions. Some artist are more concerned with the money rather then the love of the art and I haven't had that feeling at all with the past two sessions that I've gone to. It's safe to say that ill be going there from now on.

Ju Ju Marie

I got my second tattoo there and the staff there were so nice. Jack did me and my moms tattoo, he had conversations with us and was so sweet. I'm definitely going back again.

Casandra Barron

Northeast Tattoo is amazing! i loved the atmosphere there! everyone was so friendly and helpful with any questions i had. i went to Jeff for my tattoo and i wont go to anyone else now! He was very attentive to my needs and i absolutely love my tattoo! He did a wonderful job, deffinitely 5 stars!

Samantha Shanks

great place

I would highly recommend Northeast Tattoo to anyone searching for a place to get a tattoo. Personable and knowledge staff and a tidy shop. They worked quickly but carefully and costs were fair for the high quality work performed. All in all a great experience!

Nothing Short Of Top Notch. Many years ago, at the old location, I was their first client. Since then I've been back for many more tattoos. The shop has always been staffed with very talented artists. The shop is spotless and has a comfortable vibe that's inviting. The new location is even more so. Go in knowing that what ever style of tattoo that you're looking for will be executed in the most professional manner possible. Al, the founder, is a great asset to the community and a wonderful personality on his own.

I had 4 sessions with Zak, we did a Wizard piece on my left arm in memory of my grandpa. The tattoo looks beautiful. I couldn't be happier with the results the detail and color are amazing. Zak made it a comfortable experience, in a great environment with awesome music. He was very professional and answered all my questions whenever I had them, always offered to write out specific instructions, and suggestions of products he uses for tattoo aftercare. I highly reccomend Zak and Northeast Tattoo.

This place is the best! The staff are all so talented and welcoming and make the whole experience really fun. I highly recommend checking it out! Oh, yeah, they've got killer taste in music too.

What a great experience. This was officially my first tattoo. From the time I walked in to the time it was done was such a great experience. Jack was my artist and could basically read my mind on what I was looking for with just after a very brief description. The work Jack did is done phenomenally and impressive. I will certainly be back for another someday. Thank You Jack for an unforgettably awesome experience.

I had some..regrettable tattoos from years ago. I had always considered laser removal but didn't know who I could trust. Joe was knowledgable, professional, and made the process as quick and painless (as painless as it can be). One tattoo disappeared very quick and the others are nearly there just after a few sessions. Highly recommend Joe!

I got my industrial pierced and Jeff did an amazing job. He talked me through it and made me feel really comfortable. If I ever get another piercing it will definitely be by him. He was awesome! :) Recommend JEFF.

Jack did a gorgeous woodcut style tattoo of a river flowing to a setting sun with some trees and hills on either side of the river. He did an incredible job and checked in with me pretty often to make sure I was doing okay. It's also great to hear from your artist how much they enjoyed working on it!

I have had many tattoo removal sessions with Joseph. He is the best! I was nervous when I first started the removal process. It is not the most pleasant experience but Joseph explained everything thoroughly, took the time to answer my questions, and makes the experience go smoothly. Tattoo removal takes longer than many think, but it is so worth it and I would recommend Northeast Tattoo and Joseph to anyone. The facility is really clean and very professional in appearance and all of the staff there are very friendly and accommodating.

Northeast Tattoo is great! I've been there several times for myself and others. I just recently I got my nose pierced there and it was such a quick and easy process. The staff is so friendly and down to earth. I will definitely go back again!
