After about a year of going back and forth, I finally decided to get my first tattoo. I did some…read moreresearch to find a place near me, and came up with Phoenix Tattoo. After further investigation, I decided to go with Rhiannon who is a true professional and been in business a long time I was very glad that I did. I found a design that was a nice tribute to my Mom, and Rhi made it a reality. It looks even better than it did in the print that I saw. Everything was done with minimal discomfort, beyond some minor pain that went away by the next day. The healing process went very well. I'm not sure when I will get another tattoo, but I will gladly return to Rhi and Phoenix Tattoo when I'm ready.

I had a phoenix tattoo done using reference artwork that showed the direction I wanted. The…read morefinished tattoo ultimately landed quite far from that original vision. I lived with it for some time before reaching back out to the original artist rather than immediately taking it to someone else. We met in person and had what I thought was a very honest and productive conversation. We compared the original reference with the finished tattoo, and the artist acknowledged that she had been burned out and not herself when she did the original work. I genuinely appreciated that honesty and was encouraged when she offered to redesign and rework the piece. After several rounds of communication and design work, we eventually discussed the cost of the correction. Her current rate is $175 per hour, and she offered to perform the rework at her former rate of $150 per hour. I explained that I was completely comfortable paying for any new work or expansion beyond the original tattoo, but given our conversation and her acknowledgment of what happened with the original piece, I did not feel comfortable paying $150 per hour for the entirety of the corrective work. I asked whether there could be some distinction between correcting the original tattoo and the additional work I was requesting. Her response was simply that the $150 rate was already below her current rate. When I respectfully declined to move forward under those terms, the response was, "Ok best of luck!" I don't expect an artist to work for free, nor did I ask for that. I was willing to pay for the substantial new work involved. What disappointed me was the way responsibility for correcting the acknowledged problems with the original work was ultimately handled. Tattooing is permanent, and how an artist responds when something doesn't go as intended matters just as much to me as the work itself. Unfortunately, this experience changed my opinion considerably, and I will be having another artist rework the piece.

The shop is very clean with a very relaxed feel. I worked with Evan Olin and am simply blown away. One of the nicest, most thoughtful people. The whole process was enjoyable and his work is simply on another level. All the artists and staff take pride in their work, it was clear to see while I was there by the interactions they had with each other and clients. Overall excellent experience.

I made the appt and met with him and new right away he and powering were the right choice. The art we landed on was the style Chris liked and was great at. Set my appt for about a month later to do it and I cant be happier im writing this and we are not even done im so happy with how its coming out

Then he gave me ZERO instructions on how to care for my piercing. the pull tray of jewelry I picked out and processed to tell me its 300 dollars and then got mad when I said I wanted cheaper. The pricing was 100 dollars when I got my tongue priced at 70 at a much better place. fourth of all they didn't even ask for ID. so now I have to pay AGAIN for the right piercing. safe to say I will not be returning and neither should you.

This is really fun and very different something I've never experienced we were able to set off in groups and do a scavenger hunt in order to have each artist sign a card and end up with a free shirt. We were able to learn how to draw with an actual needle on fake skin, didn't do too well but the experience was great. There are many different services they go by the hour, tap out sessions, and each artist works individually. The vibe was great subtle and full of positivity. I would love to experience something like this again.

My nose piercing accidentally fell out and I had bought the jewelry from Rockstar years ago. They put it back in for $10 and it took 2mins.

May have to hunt for parking. May get cussed at for no reason by a rando.

If you need collaboration or ideas - this guy has them in spades! This ain't a local parlor - this is a destination! If you live in Mass or South County it is "worth the trip!"

I dealt with Jon for a tattoo recently and have to say, Jon and Providence Tattoo is the easiest…read moreexperience ever for those looking for a tattoo. 1. When I called he was the guy who answered the phone around 2 months ago when I booked a tattoo and stated confidently he could handle what I was looking for. 2. I sent him a design that it took me a year to pick out, little did I know, it was a more common tattoo than I thought it to be (not my intention but it was meaningful to me). Jon made it up in his own style so that it does look different and unique to me. He also took my suggestions about how I wanted to change it for me. 3. The customer service I received was unrivaled. While most of the store is booked out quite a few weeks, he was easy to stay in touch with if I had an idea about how to change the design and never left me hanging for more than a day during the wait. Jon took my ideas, incorporated some of his own and I couldn't be happier. It was affordable, the customer service was awesome, the end result was above expectations. Lastly, if you are reticent about getting your first tattoo, ask for Jon, not only was he a great frigging dude, but he's fine with taking a break a few times an hour so you can both stretch out and feel comfortable. Not my first tattoo, but my first 5 star experience and a local experience with local artists. I will be back if I need something again in the future. Lastly, the shop is clean, everyone followed covid protocols, you never feel unsafe or at risk there. This is an A+ operation filled with A+ artists and workers. If you're looking for some ink, go to Providence Tattoo, and if you can, go see Jon.
