Been coming to Sink or Swim for tattoos a few years now. Went to their previous place in NT. The…read morenew place is so great. Has a modern feel to it. Really clean every time I've been there. Staff is great from when you step in the door until you leave. Multiple great artists. I've been to Keith and Shannon. I will never to another place since I love going here so much. When anyone asks me or asks on Facebook or anywhere for a tattoo shop, I say sink or swim. Everyone is really professional. everything is clean and sanitary. Has a great atmosphere and good vibe in the shop. It's right across from the Niagara Falls airport. If you haven't been here before you may pass it because it's in a business park and the driveway is tough to find if you don't know what you're looking for. Big sink or swim art on the window so shouldn't miss the building if you look for that.

My 3 best friends and I booked appointments here to get our matching tattoos. Wasn't my first…read moretattoo nor my first time going there. When it comes to tattoos Trish and Luce were knowledgeable and friendly. They understood what we wanted, made adjustments at our requests from the drawings to the placement; which was amazing. Where the 2 star review comes in is this... we had a full day booked (it was one of our birthdays), our appointment was for 12pm (also the same time the shop is listed as being opened). We got there and waited outside for 10mins no one was there. Decided to go back to our car and try and call, got the answering machine and left a voicemail. Trish calls us back immediately and explains that the owner booked our appointment and that she doesn't start until 1pm, BUT she will be there in 10 mins. Fine. We wait and we wait. It's now 12:30 no Trish, we then decide to DM the Instagram account. Trish gets back to us and says she is waiting for the bus as its running late. She doesn't show up until almost 1pm. We get in and tattoos get done. The real piss off is we were told it could be anywhere between $120-150. Trish charged us all the top end at $150. My issue with that is though the art of the tattoo is beautiful and I respect her and Luce's craft, she did not take into account that she kept us waiting for 1hr in a vehicle and in turn we missed one of our wine tours when she decided on our price. We simply got a "sorry about that" apology. From a customer service stand point the whole situation was handled extremely poorly. I don't care who booked the appointments they were booked and you would think she would have respected that. On top of that the owner...her boss....booked the appointments so again you would think she would honor them at the time they were booked for. We had to cancel one of our wine tours as a result and as a result of Trish, she and Luce only received a $10 tip in total for 4 tattoos and that was more then enough since she had no consideration for our time. The worst part is, had she said on the first phone call can we push it to 1pm? We would have said "sure no problem" and head to a nearby bar have a drink and head back. It was the constant back and forth nonsense and just not being upright and honest that pissed us off. We spent an hour in a car trying to figure out what the heck was going on.

One I needed gone forever was highly embedded in black ink (a well-done tattoo, but one I regretted getting). I chose Chelsea for my cover-up not only for her incredible work, but she had the best cover-up work I seen! I presented her with some ideas I saw online, all with a similar theme of a mandala with flowers. She drew something up for me, using pictures of real lily flowers (my fave) she had growing from her previous home and I loved it and was ready to go. This took a few sessions due to the detail she puts into her work. If you want something worthwhile, especially a cover-up, please go for quality and detail over "saving money" or you will regret it! You will also enjoy listening to music here and she will put up a room divider to cover you if someone comes in, or someone is there with another client, so you won't be seen if say you have a vulnerable or private part of your body exposed. There is no one else I would go to for tattoos after my sessions with Chelsea. I can't say I regret the tattoo she covered up ... it's what led me to this cover up which is my absolute favorite tattoo! This picture is almost 2 years healed.

My daughter already had work done by Chelsea (owner of the shop) and I really liked the work she'd done. The shop is very clean and well organized. Decor is eye-catching, and enhances the overall energetic vibe you feel when you walk in. The staff are very professional and meticulous about making sure all tools and work areas are sterile and sanitized. The products used for any service they offer and provide are high quality. I will mention they may be pricier than other shops, but the quality of the work justifies it. You get what you pay for! I've become a repeat customer, since Chelsea tattooed my cat's paw-prints I definitely recommend Pebbles Ink for tattoos and piercings!
