My experiences have been nothing short of amazing. It's unfortunate that people are using Yelp to retaliate over Instagram disagreements rather than share actual customer experiences. The irony of claiming to support artists while trying to damage the reputation of hardworking artists is pretty remarkable. Some people leave reviews based on experience. Others apparently leave them because they lost their composure in an Instagram comment section.

I've barely had any scabbing or inflammation and that normally takes a month to go away for me. I'm a nurse, so I know how to heal a wound but still have had many issues in the past.

I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to have my tattoo done the same day as my consultation. What stood out most was how clean and professional the studio was and the care the artist took to make sure my design was exactly what I wanted. Thank you to Juliana and Dew for making the entire experience so positive. I highly recommend Dom Astro Tattoo Company to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and welcoming tattoo studio.

My friend and I had three kids with us and the staff was extremely friendly. They even let the little ones not getting anything done take part in picking out tattoos from a gum ball machine. Kevin was so kind to my little friend while getting her ears done and even helped calm her down so she would finish the second earlobe. They are sterile, don't use guns, and took the time to explain after care both in person and with a pamphlet. I would recommend anyone looking to get a piercing done go here!

The shop is well laid out, and the rooms are roomy. They don't rush you. They take the time to listen to what you want and make suggestions to help the process. They make everything easy as possible. New tattoos, cover-ups, refresh, and all your piercings needs top notch.

My daughter and I were making our way down the strip. The Black Veil caught our eye so of course we…read morehad to make our way in. This place is dark, mysterious and beautiful at the same time. The setting of this store is mysteriously romantic but with a very dark tone. I loved the floral placement, the lighting, how everything is perfectly placed. The most beautiful piece in this store is that huge, ornate mirror in the back corner. A stunning piece that I'm sure is not for sale. But what a stunner that added so a romantic feel to the store. On the other side of that romantic tone is the dark side of it. The decor, the art, the books are very dark. It's a lot to take in but at the same time very intriguing. It's eerie but not eerie enough to scare you. Honestly, the perfect shop for your decor if your lifestyle craves that rich dark note to it. Staff was friendly. Store is beautiful. I didn't realize that there was a tattoo joint in the back. My daughter wanted a tat while we were in Salem so that would have been dope to get one here. I don't know when we will be back in Salem but I look forward to stopping in and checking everything out again.

We stopped into The Black Veil Studio while walking around and window shopping…read more The vibe inside of The Black Veil Studio encompassed Salem and all of it's witchiness. The interior was so beautiful and scary, but in a classy way. There were unique book editions and artwork everywhere. I took home an Ozzy Osbourne post card that fit perfectly on my refrigerator. I actually didn't realize that they are also a tattoo studio - that would have been cool to check out, but I was so distracted and intrigued with the front of the store that I never even noticed. Staff were very friendly and approachable! I highly suggest checking out The Black Veil Studio whether it is for a tattoo or to check out their awesome items for sale.

Kevin is an amazing artist and puts a lot of work into developing your tattoo idea/concept and…read moreturning it into an iconic (pun intended) tattoo. I first met Kevin at a local tattoo expo in Lewiston, ME and was amazed by his work. We were originally scheduled to complete the tattoo at this year's expo, but the pandemic caused the event to cancel, but he offered to do it at his shop if I was willing to drive down to avoid having to cancel. The shop is industrial and antique in decor. He offers a comfortable environment with the option of music and Netflix to help pass the time. We started about 3-4 weeks in advance with me providing a tattoo idea. He provided some feedback, asked for some influences and then put together a tattoo idea that I absolutely loved. He fused the artistry of Charlie Medina with a character from the Avengers. It took approximately 9.5 hours to complete and it was worth every mile traveled and every penny spent. I will definitely have another tattoo done by Kevin in the near future. **Disclaimer** Please do not ask me for his rate as the tattoo, color and complexity can influence the cost, so please contact Kevin direct for a price or quote.
