Good place for larger tattoos, but I wouldn't recommend it for small ones. Their minimum price is…read more$100, and I got a tattoo about the size of a quarter that still cost $100. In my opinion, it just wasn't worth the price for something that small. If you're planning to get a bigger piece, though, I think you'll get much better value for your money. Jeff is very talented, he does a great job. :)

(he was transitioning from ferndale to BFE) I feel a bit taken advantage of and I must leave an honest review after spending thousands of dollars. I would choose otherwise if I had it to do again. the reason why- absolutely no touch up offered and when I asked months later, he said no- it would just be another full day. What artist doesn't offer TOUCHUP? I want to throw up by the amount of money I spent vs marks lack of concern and professionalism. notice he will book you an EIGHT HOUR spot every session and if not just know he preyed on me as a young woman. I've had several tattoos and know that this one shouldn't have taken more than 2 sessions and that I shouldn't have paid what I did. take heed.

I would 100% recommend this shop to anyone who values beautiful and precise artistry…read more The artist, Sam, took my rough concept and turned it into a fully fleshed out work of wearable art and I am so unspeakably honored to be the person to have this tattoo. He was professional and clean and took his time with the little details such as placement. Being an illustrator myself, I tend to be quite picky about the permanent art that goes into my skin. Sam is not only a masterful tattooer but he understands the foundations of fine art that make the piece more than just a tattoo, but a work of art. Well done.

The appointment system sent us a reminder on the day of our scheduled appointments. Tyler was clean, quick, knowledgeable, kind, and funny. He was able to taper my old septum piercing and pierce my friend's nostril in less than 30 minutes! He also has reasonable pricing for his services. We are referring everyone we know to come see him! This shop has some parking along the front of the building. They are relatively new at this location! Check them out for your next body modification! Lots of talent in this shop!

You know what to expect when you go to a tattoo shop - condescension, lack of communication, no…read moreopenness, and generally a feeling you're bothering the artists for existing. At Harlequin, you get none of this. When I decided I wanted a hand piece, I knew I needed quality. My partner has gone here for a couple tattoos with Dawn, and she's always happy with the outcome. So, I decided to see if I meshed with the current artists. When I reached out to Luke, he was responsive and open to my idea. Booking was easy, and as you can see, the result was worth the wait. I sent a couple pics with my overall idea, but what Luke drew was beyond anything I was thinking. I can't put into words how excited I am with this piece. Luke was easy going throughout the process and on the day of the tattoo. The shop was clean and welcoming. The other artists were very kind, happy to talk throughout my stay. Again, no pretentious vibe here. I'm sad to say Luke will be opening his own shop soon, but most everyone at Harlequin seems awesome, so you should not hesitate to get your work done here. I'll be supporting them and Luke at his new shop in the future.

I chose Harlequin to do a couple simple tattoos during the same session. My friend had Dawn do a…read morebig piece for her and said she was really friendly, so that's who I reached out to. I messaged her on her Instagram and she was very quick to reply (most artists in my experience suck at responding) and set up a date. The tattoo shop is right in downtown Hamtramck. Parking is simple, but there are meters so bring change just in case. I found the shop to be very clean, open and welcoming. I do wish there was separation between artist stations but it seems most places are doing away with privacy. Dawn was very friendly and helpful with finding placement and perfecting sizing for my pieces. The tattoo process was simple. Dawn was great to chat with. She had a nice way of explaining what she was working on as she went through the process. I love my tattoos and wouldn't hesitate to go to this shop in the future.

CASH ONLY. This…read morereview is in regards to service I received from STUART for my PIERCINGS. We walked in and there was a bit of a wait, but that's on us for not making an appointment, so no worries there. There was another person waiting too, but we managed to social distance in the lobby. Once it was our turn, Stuart was awesome! He was 100% focused on the task at hand, answered all our questions with care and was obviously very passionate AND knowledgeable about what he does. What I appreciated most was that he narrates what is happening to your body, as well as talks through what you're feeling, and gives like, time count downs throughout, which I found REALLY helpful. CASH ONLY. In terms of wheelchair accessibility: the bathroom is definitely NOT wheelchair accessible. The door opens inward and there is a very narrow walkway between the counter and the wall that you need to pass through to get to the toilet. You *might* be able to navigate it with a cane, probably not with a walker, definitely not with a motorized wheelchair. The shop area itself (where you would be getting your tattoo or piercing) is open and the tables are moveable, but there is a narrow "walkway" between counters that you must pass through to get from the 'lobby' area to the 'shop' area. Parking is on the street and is catch-as-catch-can so allow yourself extra time (and pray for luck to the parking gods if it suits you) when coming by car. They offer a discount for veterans! CASH ONLY.
