I have had nothing but absolutely wonderful experiences here. Michelle and the other artists have created an incredibly welcoming environment. They also offer a variety of styles by talented artists.

Great shop with amazing talent and reasonable pricing

Tina Zajch

Got my first tattoo in 10 years and Laura H. was awesome and one of the only artists I could find to do an ear tat. Exactly what I wanted. Great artist, great shop, great work. I'll be heading back soon for another.

Sarah Runco

My son and I both got tattoos from Michelle. Her artwork is unbelievable. She takes the time to make sure that you are happy with the final product. She is an amazing artist and an incredible woman who truly cares. This was my first tattoo and I can't imagine going anywhere else.

I received my first tattoo there and they were all amazing and nice! The tattoo has also healed nicely with no fade out and the lines are super clean!

Greg Velichansky

I got my first tattoo here a week ago. Laura Lee was my artist and she was so welcoming and really made my first experience as comfortable as possible. The other artists were also very welcoming and I felt really at ease. Will definitely be back and recommend to others.

Callie Wrenn

I had such an amazing experience getting my first and second tattoo here. All of the staff were super nice and friendly and took all the steps to make sure I was comfortable and welcomed. The parlor is queer staffed and queer friendly which is super cool! Just make sure to bring cash and you'll have a great time.

Michelle was an absolute pleasure to work with. I asked her to design a tattoo to honor the memory of my dog who was incredibly important to me. From her first email, I felt confident that she understood the emotional significance this tattoo would have for me and she was thorough and caring throughout the entire process. Michelle is a fantastic artist, but she is also a deeply kind and warm person and she made sure I was happy and comfortable through the entire process. My tattoo is exactly what I hoped it would be, and I am so, so glad I chose this shop.

Greg Calig

Nice work

Leah R

Michelle was great! She's nice, funny, and cares about the well-being of her clients. She fully realized the idea I had for a tattoo, and I'm very pleased with it. Highly recommended.

Melinda Reich

Amazing work! I am beyond happy!!! Laura is amazing!

Emily Vital

Very good experience. I got to work directly with my artist for a while before I got my tattoo. They worked with me to give me exactly what I wanted. Not too expensive, but definitely worth the price.

Katharine Carlson

Clean, beautiful, comfortable and professional. Queer friendly. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a tattoo or piercing with a better experience than your typical parlor. Gypsy Tattoo feels more like a salon than a tattoo parlor. It is woman-owned.

Molly Gilbert

Beautiful shop! You walk in and you almost don't think its a tattoo shop, it looks more like a comfortable and modern spa. The women that own the shop are incredibly sweet and talented. This is a custom tattoo parlor with a great vision and a great sense of community. I recently got a tattoo here in a tender spot and the whole process felt amazing. From choosing styles to picking a spot to actually putting this art in my skin, every step on their end was carried out with the upmost patience and consideration. Great artwork + Great artists + Great space + Great prices = The most wonderful tattooing experience that I will return here over any other Pittsburgh spot again and again.

Maria Barnard

This parlor has a very relaxed spa - meets - art gallery feel. The artists are kind, passionate and qualified (no fear of infection here!) and have done a wonderful job cultivating a place that is comfortable for the female/lgbtq crowd who wouldn't necessarily feel at home in the macho heavy metal atmosphere of your stereotypical tattoo parlor. The free touch ups for life is a nice bonus too, and indicates a clear desire to maintain a relationship with past clients. Highly recommended

Shauna Huey

Hello, I had new art ink added onto a previous piece of mine last summer.....It's taken some time to actually make the time to type up this review. I look at my tat daily and absolutely love it! Robbie did a great Job! Clean lines, soft shading! Quite gentle for the sensitive ribcage area. Everyone was very professional and super kind, great experience! Would definitely recommend and stop back again for any future art.

Sims

Got my first piece here and mathgoth made it a BREEZE

Elisa Brienza

Truly the best tattoo shop in Pittsburgh. The staff is talented as well as thoughtful and caring. Great place for first timers! Don't go anywhere else!

Edward Poole

Awesome staff great work friendly owner wouldnt get my work done anywhere else.LGBT friendly

Paige Notfound

Absolutely terrible communication skills. I have called many times and sent many emails and could not get a hold of anyone. I even went down to the shop (during hours) and it was closed. Does this place just not want clients? After weeks of trying to get a hold of someone (my mistake-- if it takes that long, just go somewhere else. I was just into their work and really wanted to get my tattoos done here.) Josh finally responded to emails apologizing for not seeing them. Ok. Whatever. I gave him some of my days off coming up but he said, "Oh that won't work. Our artist are sometimes booked weeks, MONTHS in advance!" This is pretty normal for tattoo artists, I get it. But honestly I think this place was just trying to make them sound more popular than they really are. Anyway. He said he would forward my availability to Robbie and that Robbie would get in touch with me. Well I never heard from Robbie and I'm definitely done with trying with this place after some months. I'm not sure if it's because I only wanted a small piece done for now while I plan out some bigger ones. Maybe they thought I just wasn't worth their time. Nevertheless, they really need to work on their communication skills. I wouldn't waste your time with this place. Don't make my mistake.

Sam Porazzo

Great place! very comfortable, not your typical judgemental tattoo shop

Emily F

Clean, chill, easily accessible, and a great experience!

Kelsey Molseed

Could not have asked for a better first-time tattoo experience. Robbie did a fantastic job. The piece looks just like I wanted it to, and he made me feel totally comfortable and kept me informed throughout the process. Thank you!!

Gertrude Roupe

I love it Cynthia!!!!!!

Ash Vee

Lovely people, chill atmosphere, fantastic tattoo. I'm excited to be a return client asap!

Shaune Merritt

Brittany and Brandy are amazing! Had the chance to go get a tattoo with my girlfriends on Friday night and these two ladies treated us like gold!! Can’t wait to to back and get more work done by then ❤️

Kelsey Chizmar

My experience was absolutely perfect, I highly recommend them! I can’t say enough good. I got a cover up tattoo from Robbie around a year and a half ago, and he is amazing! I attached the before and after comparison photo too. We corresponded through email many times before the session, as he was so considerate and made sure that every last detail was perfect. If I decide to get any more tattoos, I will definitely be going to him!

Tessamyn Wieczorkowski

I get so many compliments on the one of a kind piece I got here. It was a great experience and I would definitely go back.
