    Matt did an incredible job and me and moms tattoos! The included aftercare was much appreciated as well. I would recommend this place to anyone in the Boston area for high quality, reasonably priced tattoos. 10/10

    Dragon tattoo with flowers by Angie

    Literally obsessed with this place. The vibe is amazing, great customer service. My girl Angie really did her thing on my tattoo. I would 100% recommend Angie and this shop overall. P.s to the owner, you should get Angie a little table for her ink. She works so hard she deserves it!

    It's hard to write this review cause I don't want to name the artist I saw. I plan on getting way more work done and he's busy as is. I know once I show his work it's possible he will get booked more often. My artist is Billy, I stalked his Instagram (https://instagram.com/billy.inked?utm_medium=copy_link) for a year and finally decided to come see him. It is so worth it. He is super professional, light handed and when I tell you incredible. This dude is so talented. His lines are super clean, the detail is insane. You pay per hour but he got so much done in just an hour & a half my leg was pretty much done in under 2 hours. I had a 4 hr app and he pretty completed more than I expected. He is so detailed, I cannot wait to get more done. Weird thing is, I sat there in awe that I got to be tattooed by him and him so humble looked at me like it was no big deal. I've searched for 10 years for an artist that can accommodate my expectations and Billy is it,, He's official. The rest of the staff is chill, it's a very clean shop. Shout out to the fearless Piercer there. She is so bad ass. I definitely recommend checking this place out for your tattoo and piercing needs. They seem to have a house full of good artist.

    Tattoo design down my spine
    Carly C.

    I recently got a big statement piece for my spine done by Billy Le at Hollistic Ink (picture attached). I was recommended by a friend because I was looking for a Tattoo Artist who specializes in fine lines and small details. I followed Billy's Instagram (@billy.holistic) and I loved all his work, so as soon as he announced that his booking was opened, I texted Holistic Ink to schedule an appointment right away in November for something in April. They booked a 30min free consultation with Billy on April 9th and to my luck, someone canceled last minute and I was able to book the tattoo Appointment on April 23rd! (His next available spot would have been July 3rd, Billy IS POPULAR. SCHEDULE as soon as you can!!) Consultation went very smoothly and Billy was very open to my ideas and very informative with the protocols and guidelines of what to do/not to do before a tattoo. He gave me a rate of $200/hr and that the tattoo design I wanted with the size (about 9inches down the middle of my spine) was going to take about 3-4 hrs. There is a $100 deposit that is not refundable in order to schedule the tattoo appointment. You are also able to text Hollistic Ink if you have any questions/concerns and they will answer any questions for you. The day of the tattoo appointment, they ask that you come 15 mins early so you can fill out the paperwork with your ID and go through the design with your tattoo artist. Billy was very adaptive and responsive to any small changes you would like on the design. Let me scream it out to the world; BILLY IS AMAZING. He duplicated the design I wanted to the T so perfectly. From start to finish, with a 5minute break for me to drink some water, it took about 2 hours which was way shorter than we both expected. He is very light-handed and made the experience/pain very bareable. For this being my first tattoo and on my spine which I heard wasn't the typical first tattoo spot for people because of the pain, it was not bad at all. I'll give it a 4/10 pain, wincing pain at most when he was working near my should blades, shading and right on the spine. He is super fast and accurate at his work. He made sure I was okay during the session and asked if I needed any breaks. I am definitely looking to get another piece done by him in the future. Because it was only 2hrs, the price was definitely worth it and I tipped him well because he deserved it. Overall an amazing, smooth and worth experience! I highly recommend Billy to do your next tattoo because he will ROCK IT.

    I got my first tattoo here at Holistic Ink! It came out just as I imagined, maybe even better! As an artist myself, I'm very picky and indecisive when it comes to coming up with a design so I left it all up to my tattoo artist, Billy Le, and he was fantastic! I just gave him a general idea and a few photo references and he was able to find inspiration and free-styled a beautiful, one of a kind piece of art of a Koi fish entangled in cherry blossoms like I wanted. I absolutely LOVE the clean crisp lines and the vibrant colors. They are also super attentive with aftercare too. I texted them when I had questions with the healing process and they always responded quickly and reassured any concerns I had. I'd definitely be back here for my next tattoo!

    Don't go here!! $200 for the artist to not have gone deep enough, needs a touch up after a few months of healing. Line work is shaky which is very disappointing for the price. Will need to go through another session at a different shop due to poor results from here :-( Nice staff, but they vape a ton and the store constantly smells like stale bubblegum. Got a cartilage piercing done here as well that did not fit my ear shape and could not heal correctly, had to remove it. Disappointing considering the piercer was ragging on every other body jeweler in Boston.

    I came to Holistic Ink because I made a mistake of letting other artist put ink on me without making sure they understood what I wanted. Not only did My artist Vinny incorporate the new ink to blend in with my old one, he listened to understand what I wanted. He made my other tattoos work around his tattoos. I don't know how he made that possible, but he shocked me! His art is unique and it's very detailed! (The owl is one of my first tattoos I got from vinny, and now I'm finishing up another huge piece. ) Vinny is fast, he listens, and he's creative. I'm excited to finish up my next piece with him! Tip: don't hesitate to tell Vinny exactly what you are looking for. He's really patient!

    Got both my full sleeve and half sleeve done by Vinny. This dude is legit. His Japanese-style tattoos are the best I've seen in the Boston area. Vinny's speed is unmatched and still keeps every little detail while he tattoos, a true professional at work. My first tattoo was my full koi sleeve and was totally done free-hand and came out amazing. My second tattoo was my half sleeve and Vinny was creative enough to make the idea I had in mind work so perfectly. These guys at Holistic Ink are serious about their craft and want to provide the best service possible but are also very kind and warm spirited, they make you feel welcomed the second you walk in. I'll be coming back to Holistic Ink for all my future tattoos and will continue recommending this shop to all my friend and whoever wants to get tattoos done by some great people.

    Came for a spontaneous piercing as they do walk-ins for piercings and Fiona did a wonderful job! All of the staff are very friendly and accommodating and I will definitely be back!

    So first things first, I made an appointment to come get a tattoo back in April for October I…read morethink. I had to reschedule twice because I was starting a new job and didn't have the money. Idiot me. I think at the beginning of November I called to make an appointment for November 22nd and this time I stuck with it. I went on Saturday at 2 pm and had my appointment with Tiffany. What an amazing experience it was. First off the logo is catchy as fuck. The shop is small but also really good size. The receptionist was quite pleasant. Then I met my artist Tiffany. So gosh darn talented. I was originally going to get 4 words but instead got 2. I wanted a really cool design for the words so I was doing some research and Tiffany had some cool cursive font on her instagram that I think would pop out. She worked with me on the size of the tattoo and the color and everything. Then it came time for the tattoo. I was so nervous but she gave me a pillow to lay my head on and that helped and then she went to work. She chatted with me through the whole thing and she took her time to. The chatting helped to distract me from the uncomfortableness of the tattoo. They also were very good with letting me know about aftercare instructions which was huge. Btw Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban was playing when I went in which was amazing. Honestly everything went amazing. It was such a welcoming place. Will be back for future tattoos. Thank you Boston barber tattoos and the owner for making this a welcoming place. You have earned a new client. Now to try out the barber side of this establishment!!

    Got a haircut from Sara and she was amazing! She was extremely professional, truly cares about her…read morecraft and was very gentle with the cut. I highly recommend getting a haircut from her because she understood exactly what I wanted and executed it with precision.
