I went into my appointment bubbly and excited for my friend and I to get meaningful tattoos for someone we have lost, and to get a bff matching "freckle tattoo," too. Due to my depression, I have not gotten out too much in the past couple years, so this was a big day for me on my healing journey. I drove over an hour away from NJ. From the moment we first interacted with Rob at the appointment, his tone was demeaning, condescending, disrespectful, annoyed, disgusted, disgruntled, and flat out mean. My friend got her tattoo done first, and when I stood up to take a 2 second video to document our special day/tattoos, he snapped at me that I needed to sit down bc I was a peripheral distraction. He was annoyed I asked him if a bathroom was closeby, and told me I had to wait instead of him just telling me where it was. When it was my turn to be tattooed, I asked if he could put a little paw print over the "i" in my dogs name. He said no. I asked if he could put a heart there? He scoffed and begrudgingly said "ugh, yeah. I guess?" When he did the placement I was unsure if I wanted the front or the back of my arm, so I asked him to do the stencil on the back of my arm too, in which he was annoyed. I was unsure of how the tattoo fit my arm and the placement, and as I stood there and debated with my friend, he offered no insight, just sat there silent and looking disgusted. Meanwhile I am standing there holding my dogs toy, who passed away, just trying to get it right. I have anxiety and the more I could not decide, and the more he made me feel uncomfortable, I was like nervously touching my arm in areas, in which he yelled at me "I TOLD YOU. DONT TOUCH YOUR ARM. THATS NOT SANITARY." Then when I nervously put my phone on the arm of the chair, again got berated for not being sanitary. The more discomfort I felt, I got upset and undecided on the tattoo, to which I offered a solution to us just standing ther awkwardly getting no direction or input from him, and I said "can you just do the freckle tattoo for me while i decide on the placement for my dog tattoo?" to which he appallingly replied, "well I am not your servant." Up until that point, l'd let go being berated for literally every word I said and move I made in the presence of this man, but that was enough for me. I told him the way he had treated me was unacceptable, and that I no longer felt comfortable getting the tattoo for my dog. Since my friend had already gotten her freckle tattoo, I felt I had to at least do that, because it was supposed to be meaningful for us, and I didn't want us leaving with only her having got it done. Defeats the whole purpose. So he did the freckle tattoo for me, then said he would just keep my security deposit($50). So I paid $50 for a freckle tattoo, smaller than a pencil eraser and to be treated in an abusive manner. I waited a few days to post this, to see if he would reach out to try to take accountability, but nothing. I am far from a sensitive person, and I know how to defend myself against bullies, so I post this for the people who might be more sensitive than I, who are unable to stand up for themselves. I would not want anyone else to ever have to go through the experience that I did, as it was emotionally damaging even for me.

Jacqueline Angell (Jackie) is truly an incredible tattoo artist. Not only do they care deeply for…read moretheir clients, but they do everything in their power to make sure that the people in their chair are happy and comfortable. Jackie has been tattooing me for years, starting with a memorial piece in honor of my late grandmother. Jackie took great care and patience in the design process and was extremely receptive to my ideas and wants. They helped me choose a location when I was unsure and I trusted their creative process and ended up with a permanent piece of stunning art on my arm. When I decided to continue with my sleeve, I knew that Jackie was the only artist I wanted to keep it going with. The care and attention to detail never ceases to amaze me. I appreciate the straightforward language in Jackie's appointment info, especially regarding deposits and rescheduling. I have a busy schedule as does Jackie and I love when someone understands the value of time! I will follow Jackie to any shop they go to...such a talented and considerate artist. If you want a beautiful piece of art on your body and you also want the benefit of working with a compassionate and patient badass, Jackie is your person!

Service, skill and professionalism - I can't say enough. Just got my 2nd tattoo, a sternum tattoo,…read morewhich everyone warned me would be painful. I had two artists refuse to even do it because of the location. Bere' was fabulous. I walked in for a consult and her first words to me, after hello, were, "I love doing flowers." Today I walked out with a beautiful sternum tattoo of a colorful orchid stem with a hummingbird feeding off of it. I will post a photo after it heals, but I couldn't be happier with her artistic skill, her skills with needle and ink, and her attitude. Everyone at Black Cat was welcoming and receptive. I am not your "normal" tattoo canvas as I am a 68 year old woman who got her first tattoo just last year. I highly recommend both Black Cat, and Bere' for your next tattoo or piercing.

Shannon did my second and third lobes (in one appointment) and overall did a good job. Only…read morecomplaint was that I had to get one repierced twice since the placement was off, so my 4 piercings turned into 6. Not a big deal for me, I have a high pain tolerance and experience with piercings, but it was a bit annoying. it was easy to fix and repierce though since it was just my lobes. They're a little close together, but I also have small lobes and wanted to fit all 3. I used my own jewelry (I had them previously pierced but had to close them due to health issues). I dropped them off the day before so they were clean and ready to use for my appointment. Very professional, clean place. And Shannon was great to chat with during the piercings.

We had a 12pm appointment and were on time. There is a bit of paperwork needed and another couple arrived right before us. Brian took care of my wife. He did one of her other tattoos. She has gotten all of her tattoos here. He took her in around 1215pm. Ambiance is a tattoo parlor. Samples of the artist's work are hanging all around. I sat in a comfy leather couch while I waited. My wife's tattoo is a simple heart with our grandson's initial "A" for Aiden. Covered now and for a few hours. A pic is below. She highly recommends the parlor. Mark & Nancy

Harry moved me from a chair to a table to lay down, gave me water, a couple snacks, started a fan on me, gave me a cold towel, took breaks, and really took care of me which I appreciated very much.

The pain really wasn't that bad (coming from someone with no pain tolerance). I am SO happy, it looks amazing and I will absolutely come back again. Cheap as well! Highly recommend!!!
