    Beautiful piece done by Inkstained artist Ted Wellan.

    This is the best shop by far in the SI/NJ area. Every artist in this shop is a great artist, each with their own specialty. It is a clean shop and a friendly shop, no attitudes here and they work with you so that you get exactly the tattoo that you want. Tim the shop manager is very helpful and will always steer you in the right direction. I recommend that you do your homework , go on Facebook and Instagram and compare the Inkstained artists work to the other shops in the area and you will come to the realization that these guys art is just flat out better then everyone else. I often search the web and social media sites to see what other local artists are putting out , and it just doesnt compare to Mikee , Ted, Chris, Dan and Cris' work.......I highly recommend this shop.

    I've been getting my tattoos at InkStained all year. Having been tattooed by 3 different artists, I can rightfully say that it does not matter which artist tattoos you because they all provide the same exceptional experience. Upon walking into the studio for the first time, I instantly felt apart of the group. The staff is very kind, professional, accepting, and willing to edit a design until it is perfect without so much as a hint of frustration. The studio itself is immaculate and a very chill environment to spend time in. The walls are lined with artworks that the majority of which were created by the staff. They provide ample free parking and I have never had an issue finding a spot to park. My tattoos have all turned out exactly the way that I expected them to and I have had no issue with healing. I have nothing but good things to say about this studio and their staff. I wouldn't go anywhere else! Thank you InkStained!

    it's from a video so it's a bit blurry since I screenshot it

    got my naval piercing just a few hours ago here :) I liked it! Made me feel comfortable as well, I was just confused where to enter at since the entrance was in the parking lot. 10/10

    This is my tattoo

    Please do not EVER go to that place. RUN AWAY! I am extremely disappointed with this place and specifically with the artist IRMA. My tattoo has been made by an unexperienced unprofessional artist. The tattoo was easy to made, no colors, black and white. However, the outcome was just poor and my tattoo looked like drawn by a 5 year old. I wanted to cry, I was in a shock and disbelief. It was my body and I have to wear this tattoo all my life. I emailed the place with request to correct it but this salon never responded. I left multiple phone messages and finally after a few days, I was asked to come. TO my DISBELIEF, the salon admitted that the tattoo is not made correctly BUT if I want to keep it, they will have to add some colors. I have NEVER wanted any colors in my tattoo. My tattoo was supposed to be black and white from the beginning. However, the place quoted said : " we know what is the best for tattoo". I refused to do the same and went to other places for second opinion. All the places confirmed the tattoo is batched ! and it was very easy to correct the way I want with no colors. However, this place insisted to add some colors claiming they are the best artist and know what is the best thing for me. The artist's name is Irima was highly upset, rude when I mentioned that the tattoo is not made the way I wanted. She said, she had been doing for many years and I have no right to correct her. Overall, the whole customer service is terrible. They are rude, unprofessional. Once they take your money, forget about any corrections. And please keep it in mind and be ready that you will walk out from this place with the totally different tattoo than you want ! As of now, the tattoo is not finished, it looks bad and this place refuses to correct it the way I want though I full paid the whole amount.

    Flaco has tattooed me a number of times, and it's always a great experience. I would recommend him 10x over, and it helps that the shop has a great atmosphere.

    Prince Forever!

    I've been a tattoo collector since 1997. I'm an artist and I do my research on tattoo shops and artists before I make a choice. As a lifelong Prince fan (since 1981), I knew when he died that I had to get a memorial tattoo to honor him. I wanted something that was worthy of him. Beautiful. I found Dan at InkStained tattoo after looking at many portfolios online and I knew he'd execute my vision perfectly. I was right. Everyone at the shop is professional and friendly. They immediately put Prince music on Pandora when I arrived for my appointment which was so cool. Dan re-drew my sketch I had dropped off a week prior and he did what an awesome tattoo artist should do- he made it better. Collaborated with me. He chose perfect colors and executed great lines. In the process, he used just enough pressure to do the job without tearing my skin up like many heavy-handed tattoo artists do. Sure it hurt some like all tats do, but I could almost take a nap in the chair compared to other pieces I've had done over the years. Dan is friendly, professional, and overall a cool cat. Definitely recommend Dan and InkStained to anyone who wants quality work, not some bullshit scratch that is found elsewhere. Thanks Dan and InkStained! I love my tattoo!

    Mikee Herbert is the phenomenal artist behind this masterpiece!!!! Thanks Mikee

    So after 3+ months since my removal, I finally made the appointment to get my eyebrows…read moreRE-microbladed by Alice after a botched job done by someone else. Once I arrived, Alice checked on my eyebrows and had me sign some paperwork. There was aftercare instructions in the back so make sure you take pictures of it! (Alice will let you know to take pics of it as well) Once I sat on the procedure chair, she went through my options. Since I had redness due to the removal, she was afraid it would show if she added just the microblading hair strokes. She suggested I do the combo which entails shading along with the hair strokes. Of course there was an additional cost but I really didn't want to have my eyebrows fixed again for future purposes so I went ahead and opted for the combo. Once I laid down, Alice walked me through the entire eyebrow drawing procedure and asked me what kind of eyebrow shape I was looking for. I was bored of my straight brows so I wanted more of an arch but not too much of an arch. She drew and perfected my eyebrows countless of times in order to get the right and perfect style. She also made sure my eyebrows were aligned and symmetrical. All in all, the procedure was entirely painless and very easygoing and smooth. I will post up the pictures of my eyebrows once they'll done healing so you can see the finished product! (They're way too dark as of now so I don't want that to scare you guys off!) Book with Alice! Her prices are extremely competitive and she makes you feel so comfortable! She told me she was going to start offering facial treatments and I can't wait to take my mom here!

Alice was very pleasant to work with, but my brows were not as bold as I would have preferred (even though I paid extra to have them done in the "bold" /more full style). Alice reshaped my brows a tiny bit by shaving off/plucking, and once I got used to the new shape I loved them. Alice did mention that because my skin is on the oilier side ( have combination skin), and more sensitive that my results could be lighter. They are! Here is a before and after. (Before: natural brows). After is two plus months after my touch up.

I never knew she had this done " I always expected to see dark purple or blue lines on anyone who had permanent makeup . So when she said look closer......and she pointed out the little HAIR'S WHICH WERE NOT HAIRS AT ALL!!!! ( NO BLUE LINE- IT LOOKS LIKE REAL HAIRS ) I WAS TOTALLY SURPRISED. She said Angela is an Brow Artist...and that she truly is. !!! I booked an appointment with Angela. I was so nervous, and well Angela is the sweetest person ever. She explained every detail, and even penciled in and framed the brows before she started....I was pleased with the sketching and she proceeded. NO Pain!!! No Owchie!!! Nothing! We talked, and talked....and the process was finished in no time! So then she hands me a mirror...and OH MY GOODNESS! WOW. IF EYEBROWS CAN HAVE AN ATTITUDE...PLEASE!!!!! "I" HAVE THE BEST EYEBROWS ON STATEN ISLAND THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! I cannot get over how happy I am with this decision I made. I look younger, my face looks happier...no more angry look. Over all, this really is an awesome technique. If you want perfect groomed brows that look natural, that frame your face nicely, that take years off your looks.....DO THIS FOR YOURSELF..... REALLY. I can't believe it too me this long to finally do. I JUST POP ON SOME MASCARA AND I FEEL SO PRETTY. Thank you so much Angela. XOXOXOXOXO
