I love the show and work and I'm only 22
Thank you ELijah much love, God Bless Black Ink......Decided to memorialize my father the day before his funeral with a tattoo... The moment was spontaneous in a joking manner with the wifey. Then I challenge myself and did it, kind of strange doing this at 46..... ELIJAH's work is tight, the environment was over whelming, became crowded as soon as I sat down, groupies stopping through throughout the session... Could I've just been lucky that day when I stop by, maybe........ it was fate to me..
LOVE the show & am actually going 2 NYC to see the shop & other sites since I'm so close (in MD). But if ANYBODY get outta line, it's not gonna b pretty. lol I'm reading these reviews & I WOULD get a tat there except they're VERY high priced & based on the reviews, I'd hate 2 be disappointed AND pissed. So we'll c....STAY TUNED!!!
When I go to Black Ink to get my tattoo done, I only want Ceasor to do it.
I just got my ear pierced yesterday, and Ryan was AMAZING. She will make you feel so comfortable, and it was my FIRST piercing--it didn't feel like anything! I am DEFINITELY coming back.
They were rude and hard to understand
Black ink is a great tattoo shop i think if u live in new York u should get ur tattoo done at black ink
Best tattoos
It's ok, dont for something fancy at all. Was told tho that its franchised and the people you see on tv is not at this location and they was only there once when opening so...it was ok
I couldn't find it. Google kept sending me in circles
They were awesome. I got my nose pierced and they were very helpful when it came to cleaning instructions
It was my first tattoo my birthday and I went to Black Ink it's my granddaughter's name she is my heart and that's why I chose to put it on my left arm
It was pretty cool
The sauce is the bomb!! DELICIOUS
Loved the shop when I went there 2 years ago.Nice staff great work reasonable prices.Will defiantly go back this year when Im back in New York.
Ceaser! I know you looking at these reviews! The Walking Dead, The Simpson's and King of the Hill all had long running seasons on tv! You better get your shop's in check and tend to your customers. Tv shows never last! Look at MTV Making the Band! Never forget how you started or what keep you in business! It can make you or break you! Now! I don't want no tattoo here either! Word of advice! Check your Google reviews!
Can't get enough of these guys. I'm an older woman that is in love with the entire Black Ink Crew. My first trip to NY ...my first stop was to Harlem hoping to meet any members of Black Ink, was told I had just missed Ceasar and Dutchess but had the opportunity to meet Angel and Ceasar's uncle. Great vibe.
Walked in and reception was so bad that I walked out. Ambiance is sketchy, could not hear the receptionist (her normal voice is a whisper), artists were "out to lunch" with no return time, and card machine was broken.
I went in really quick before work. I had no idea they even had a show I just wanted to see the artist work and see what the shop is about. I gave the guy that was attending me my ideas and as I was talking he kept speaking to me dismissively. Very frustrating and I don't even think he was an artist just someone who works in the front. I've never been to a shop and treated that way.
Love this place! I've gotten 5 tats from here and I'ma keep going back
Saturday I had a great experience at Black Ink on 125 ... I called prior to my arrival since this was not a planned visit and to my surprise a very nice young lady by the name of Ryan answered the phone and said I could come in right now I was extremely excited .... when I arrived Omg it was dope everyone was smiling and friendly and most of all clean. That day my artist was Berto at first I wanted to be picky but I was so overwhelmed by the experience I just said ok and but the great experience didn’t stop there this guy was amazing top notch equipment that I like afterwards there was no pain and his work was that of a perfectionist will definitely be going back to him for more work... 10 stars to Black Ink..
I went yesterday and the receptionist (who originally said he was the shops manager) was very rude and aggressive. He made the shop feel cold, stuffy, and uncomfortable. He acted as if he did not know who my tattoo artist was and that I’d come to the wrong place. He made me wait in the sitting area, making it a problem when I tried to talk to my tattoo artist Kevin about what I wanted done. But after all that my artist Kevin was great he completing warmed up my experience and did a wonderful job tattooing what I wanted. It was exactly what I invisioned; he was very professional, friendly, and clean.
I love these folks much love from Memphis Tn hey why not open a shop here in Memphis ...Ceasar get at us my guy we need u here bro
My husband and my brother got their tattoos done at the tattoo convention and they are both hot. We also enjoyed the laughs we had with them. I'll be getting my done soon since I told them I would after I had my baby. Good people!
The people that say that have actually been there, had a bad experience. I love Black Ink the show but seriously people even on the show they don't do alot of tats. Love the staff but skeptical about the shop if you go as a customer and your not a super star.
How can you Love someone that you have never meet or have never had any emotional connection with?
SCAM ARTIST!. They make you pay for time in advance example 6 hours about 1300. Mind you my outline was already done so that shouldve had them a step ahead. ...then they take breaks consult others customers and go slow so that they won't finish your tattoo in the alotted time just so you can go back and spend more money. Uncomfortable folding chairs small tight space no breathing room. Most of all none of the people from the show is even there. Just some mediocre scam artist. A complete Rip off. Someone else will be completing my tat.
Excellent experience and work.
I am out here, in New York on a conference from the Westcoast. Some friends and I went sightseeing. We decided to go to Harlem and stop by "Black Ink!" Once arriving there, one of their employees came out very rude...."He stated that, they were not taking anymore appointments and they were closing!" The shop still had clients, he rudely escorted us out and wouldn't even let us take pics. This is suppose to be a professional establishment and this is how you represent it? Smh my head, it's unfortunate because clients are the ones who keep a business going. The owner need to, update the business hours as it reads open until 12am and the website location. Someone needs to also answer the phones, to answer questions when needed.
good looks! Scorpion wolf's came out
Great experience..my grandsons first tattoo. The staff treated as like family..The tattoo looks amazing
It was nice up there they treated me really good
A little advice to black ink, I wanted more tattos and I never have been to black ink shop, but it sounds as unprofessional as the show is,if u are reading your reviews,stop worrying about hiring unprofessional people who never seem to do tattoos but to be rachet,your workers need to have more work ethic, I understand it's good entertainment for the show,but when it comes to people paying there hard earn money,y'all definitely got to get it together,I really believe Cesar u are getting too relax with the show check,because even a blind person can see your workers are unprofessional,but I guess those the workers u want because u don't have to pay them much because they don't do any tattoos anyway,no one should have to come in and be string along and wait on a tattoo artist to do a tattoo and they are giving u money,there are too many tattoo parlors in Manhattan that is way more professional, if this is your passion Cesar you are sure letting it go down the drain
My friend got her tattoo done there and they experience was amazing
Chrystal Miztat does wickedtattoo came all the way from Uk to get mine from her.
Isn't black ink anymore all members isn't there pouma is my fovofavo, sky is great
Cease please don't be mad at Sky. I know she loves you, please try to look at Sky getting her own shop from the stand poing of: you've helped her get to where she is! You Cease... should be very proud of that! I'm happy for the both of you
It was an amazing experience and I love the real people who tattoo
Most that seem to have actually went to Black Ink have low stars. Then those who just speak about the show have high star ratings. Interesting. I love watching the show, but would never get a tattoo there.
Big fan of the show
Hello i'ma need yall help
Stopped by when I was in town ...they were closed ..but one of the Black inc crew members were sitting out front...I'm not a groupie by far...but dude had a very bad attitude. .when your in the business your going to have Fans that want pics!!!! Please remember it's the fans that make you,...so you should never be to good to take a pic with a fan!!!!!!! I guess that's why he's not one of the regulars on the show....Not A good look !!!!!!! He knows who he is...I'm Told him when ever you come to Miami I will show him how to treat people. .. k own matter how big you think you are. ..........STAY HUMBLE MY BROTHER.....I WILL BE BACK!!!! NEED TO TALK TO CEASE. ..... I KNOW HE'LL KEEP IT
Y'all was kool as he'll great place to get tattoo
Yessss I love it
One of the best tattoo places
I swear i love this show if i ever had a chance to meet the cast ill totally be happy i love them.
If you go to Black Ink on 125th, go to Kevin (@tattoothetown)! He did my tat a few weeks ago and it's PHENOMENAL! Absolutely breathtaking! Kevin was really nice, and very detailed about his work. I truly enjoyed working with him; he's a fantastic artist. Very professional which I appreciated. The organization of the shop itself could use some work. Before getting the tattoo there was a lot of miscommunication between myself and the establishment about my appointment. I got redirected to multiple people telling me different things; some things I should not have known. That was the only bad taste left in my mouth from the shop. Other than that, once there, everyone was very nice and welcoming. The shop had a cool atmosphere and the employees were very cool. I would recommend going there.
It was only a banner in the window as far as I could tell
Great Experience. Cease does big portraits but he took the time out to do my Infiniti tattoo. Very professional.
Didn't realize i passed right by there
If u want a great tattoo go to Tuff City in the Bronx. Better artists and people. What you see is what you get. When u see these clowns on tv the word class is buried under all the plastic surgery and horse hair. You can't find art digging in a trash can.
Nice clean and very professional
I enjoyed seeing black ink in person for the first time.
They were nice and it was clean. I'm going again
I'm currently visiting New York and Wanted to check black ink out as I watch the show often. I walked up the stairs and told the lady that unlocked the door that I was visiting New York and was a fun of their show and wanted to check the shop out did this rude ass lady tell me No and slammed the door in my fave they just lost me as a fan
Place was clean and staff greeted us with an smile the fact, the fact that the super start Cease, came out and have us hugs simply because we said we were fans, I am still in awe... We wanted tattoos but appointments are required, really cool place!
Best time ever. I cant wait until i get bac to chicago so i can tell everybody
Super engaging and fun artists and employees. The space was clean and I’d definitely come again.
These guys are great! Thanks Gemz hooked me and my bestie up!
Purchased an item at a Tattoo convention that I never received. Feel it was intentional, since no one has redponded to my emails nor returned my money. Was Purchased from Caesar.
No one's ther3
I havent been yet but soon I will ..
You guys are the best sky I love you Queen I see so much of myself in you you rock Caesar congratulations on all of your accomplishments and congratulations to your new beginnings I am definitely going to book my appointment I Want a tattoo done I wanted done there because I know I'm gonna have a good time in vets would I need right now in my life
Black ink, I'm not to sure as to what's going on. I came there on January 4th 2019 to get a tattoo for my birthday. I had gotten a cherry blossom tattoo. Fresh did it. But, my concern is that my tattoo is still itchy and raised. I'm not bashing you guys because I really like to support black owned businesses, but if you can pls reach out to give me some kind of reason as to why I'm having these symptoms I would appreciate it. I have many tattoos and none of them feel this way. It really itches and looks weird! Pls reach out... I know where your located, and by the looks of my tat anyone would agree something is wrong!!!! And I have many none looks as yours do!! Thanks
Didn't get a tattoo, but the staff is awesome and very helpful!
Thanks to ceaser my tattoo is the best I've seen or had I really appreciate the detail and time he put in we are from VA . Came up to see black ink while in New York he met with us right away drew something for me and had my appt the next day I WILL BE COMING BACK SOON ...Again thank you ceaser you did a great job you are one of the best for sure !!!!!I wish I could add a pic
Very laid back and nice atmosphere. Great customer service. Scorp Did That!!! Birthday behavior
The artist Fresh was amazing!! Art work on point..very friendly staff!!
Recommend everyone go to my man Jemz, great tattoo artist. Nothing but Good vibes throughout the studio when i got my Nipsey Tribute Tattoo
I called they were really nice on the phone and the phone wasn't disconnected and they seemed happy to help me
Bad attitude had me come in and than told me my peice was to big to come back
Very unprofessional and rude, personnel on site declined services and stated they close at 9pm although their website clearly states the hours of operation are from 12pm-12am. I tried calling the phone number prior to my visit that was listed via the website but no answer. This was a very disappointing experience due to me having to travel so far.
Great !!! We came to NY on vacation from Dallas.. My wife watches the show. I asked if she wanted a tshirt.... she said No.... I want a tattoo !!
Loved my experience, although the guy at the front desk can come off rude.I really had a great time, SCORP did my tatt and i LOVE it!
Cesar came into my restaurant smelling like pot - with someone not his gf. Funny how a guy with 2.5 million dollars and drives a Mercedes-Benz - eat a nice meal - but is too cheap to leave a tip. What a loser . Money can't buy class.
Was happy to be outside
Didn't stay long.I plan to visit the shop soon.
Pretty cool, crew only comes for filming to the Lenox location.
The feeling was amazing from the jump I felt like I was with my family soon as I walked in the door, Feezi was amazing...I also had the honor of meeting Eli who was a sweetheart he asked if the customers wanted candy when he bought it back to the shop I declined as I'm trying to watch my sugar intake lol furthermore, I had the opportunity to get a beautiful coverup on my neck from Kevin himself he was amazingly kind, all around he made my experience amazing my experience was so good I will be back in 2 weeks for another tat Black Ink you rock thank you keep it up!!!!! Scorp you rock thanks for the tenders be great...
Awesome
My experience was amazing atmosphere great and my tat artist GEMZ was the best. Ill be back to see u boo. Thanks. Shana..
Doors locked ever sunday even though it says open.....i been canceled on 2 times by 2 people at the same shop once without notice and once 1 hour before appointment and its my fault for not wanting to get my tattoo there still if you asked me on being proffesional and keeping apps go to another shop
I believe treat people with respect and you will get respect . next month my best friend and I will be getting hand tattoos and don't let what you see on t.v fool you. theses people are humans just like you and I . I truly look forward to getting my tattoo done their and even take some pics
They just came to my city for a tattoo convention and Osh*t did my tattoo, first he did not give me what I want. Then he kept stopping. He didn't even finish. He seemed nice but was completely unprofessional. The tattoo looks good but its not what I wanted and now its on my body permanently. Oh and he was a rude about it !
It's cool like that
It's black owned always show love
Would love to come and get some work done.... Love the work I have seen you guys do
Jared was a great artist! My tattoo turned out exactly how I wanted it! The receptionist was also so nice and friendly. Great overall experience.
My daughter Loves the Black Ink reality show, so we were afforded the opportunity to visit one of their locations last year! We didn't get to meet anyone from the show, but the representatives that were there, was so nice to us! They even allowed my daughter to take pictures with them! We purchased t-shirts and hats for souvenirs, my daughter really enjoyed her visit!!
Stars wasn't there but I'd like to meet all of them ond day when they visit Dallas
Black Ink is truly amazing and the atmosphere is tremendous. They treat you just like family and make you feel welcomed and wanted.
The wait too long, but great meeting people.
Sketchy. I came by a few days ago and tried to go in but they put a divider in front of the door and locked their door. It reeked of skunky cheep weed and no one was answering the door when I knocked. Probably better that no one answered.
On vacation came to see the blackink crew but the vacation they self
they were very nuce
Dope spot if you want a tat by a celebrity.
The place was clean and staff greeted us with an smile the fact, the fact that the super start Cease, came out and have us hugs simply because we said we were fans, I am still in awe... We wanted tattoos but appointments are required, really cool place
They were sooo well on my tattoo
Very nice and clean shop. Cool atmosphere. I dealt with Uriel very cool dude. I undwrstand they have a few other spots in New York and other states. Its on 50 West 125th Street in Harlem.
Great tattoos the best
Very nice receptionist that answered the phone I’m Ink2playa
Black ink is home some some awesome artist including Chrystal. Her artistry professionalism is what makes me keep going back to her. She puts her heart into every piece she does and strives to make her clients happy I've yet to be disappointed in any of the eight pieces she's given me. I can't wait to get some more from her she's dope!!
Bad customer service! Didn't get tatted here because of what I received entering the shop. So sad. I was willing to support this business.
Very nice and they aren't just trying 2 get u to get inked they tell you 2 think about what you want
Had to come check it out, visiting from Texas so wanted to get a matching tattoo with my sis, glad we came, everyone was nice and professional and now we can say WE'VE BEEN TO BLACK INK!
My experience with Crystal was memorable. She was able to take what I wanted and add a twist to it that made me want to get the tattoo even more. Great artist with a personality too match. I would definitely get more ink from her!
Good
As a fan of the show, i couldn't wait to go get a tattoo from Black Ink! We Drove up from Massachusetts, 5 hours it took. Oshit rejected doing the tattoo in front of me. Which was disappointing because he was the one who i would have wanted to do it. The conversation that was happening was disrespectful for any woman to hear. I was sitting there thinking, is this a business? Kyle ( i think that was his name) ended up doing my tattoo and he was GREAT, which is why i give 3 stars. I guess i went in expecting to much, like a hello, thanks for coming . Maybe a laugh or two..... Left very disappointed. It was cool to see the shop, but i Wont be back, or suggest anyone take a long road trip to go there. There are plenty of professional artists right here in Mass.
GREAT people!!!
Great place!!! Jessa is amazing!!! Shes done 2 of my tattoos now and they both look so good! I love going here
Cease has good business and talent BLK INK!!!!!!!
Was hoping to see some of the people we watch on tv but once again it was nice just to get some pictures.
Just passing by
A big disappointment!!! I came all the way from Texas for this tattoo. I paid $100 for a tattoo that only took 15 minutes. I had no beef with the price because I thought I was getting exceptional work done. Big mistake! Fast forward a month later and the tattoo lines are not sharp/clear. The coloring is uneven. I can see my skin through it. And part of the tattoo has faded completely away. I've only had it for a month! I've now got to go to another shop (one I know is reputable for sure) and pay more money to have them correct Black Inks poor work. I wish I could include a picture for you all to see
This summer I'm heading to new York & I will be stopping in to black ink to get my next tattoo very excited :)
They are very professional and the bond that they have are and always will be special Not only that they treat each other like family but they also treat their clients like they are family by allowing their customers and employees to open up and tell there life stories and past experiences. Which 2 me means the world 2 me. I am really hope that one day I can get my first tattoo done at the black ink tattoo shop and i hope that cease can do my 1st tattoo it would mean alot 2 me if he designed my very first tattoo
My experience with black ink was good they were cool and nice and my tattoo looks good oshyt did my tattoo and he did a great job and he had no problem taking pictures with me so I didn't see what people mean by them having a bad attitude
Great place to get your tattoo i like the 50 west 125the st Black Ink
