    Bobby did my tattoo...We talked about what I wanted, he gave me different options and he gave me exactly what I wanted...love the artwork, the music and the good vibes. Highly recommend Bobby and Pure Ink!​

    Had a Tattoo done today by Tito! What a great experience. Sat down prior to tattoo and talked about the style tattoo I wanted. Told him what I wanted. And he proceeded to show me styles of lettering, and images. Listened to my ideas and incorporated them into my tattoo. This tattoo was in memory of my dad and uncle. Tattooing was painless. Job was exceptionally done. Will be sending all of my friends looking for tats to Pure Ink... Thank you Tito!!

    Despite very a very negative experience at first, the owner quickly reached out and rectified the mistakes of his staff.

    Update** Be friends with these guys on Facebook, they run awesome specials if you want to get a small piece or some lettering. Yesterday my friend saw that one of the guys was running a 5 letter special for $40, $10 for additional letters and she had a few things she wanted to get, plus we wanted to get some highfiving cat tattoos (see pics) so we said why not. Ian was running the special so we stopped in and saw him and got started. He was a nice guy and even got a bit parental on us about putting a tattoo on our hand---I give him props for being realistic but we opted to get them anyway. He was pleasant and I'd go see him again, his portfolio on their website isn't updated so don't be scared away by that, go see his art if you're interested. The other artists were all floating around the shop and were quite entertaining. The owner was bouncing around as well and bought my friend a coffee (whatta guy). So this is my second experience at Pure Ink and I'd say I'm a fan, I think they're great guys and I will def check them out for my next serious tattoo. Also--if you are interesting in getting a large piece or a drawing done, call ahead of time and see if the artist you want is available. They have a lot of guys working there and they will take walk-ins but if they're busy obv they can't see you....but they are worth it so just make the call. I'm so glad that tattoo shops are finally nice places to go to---no longer the days of walking into a private club type atmosphere being treated like crap, scraped with a needle, and sent on your way. This is a super pleasant atmosphere with talented artists. old review---- Husband and I went in last night for our tattoos and had a great experience with Shawn. Keep in mind we opted for a very simple stick figure drawing so go and look at Shawn's actual portfolio cuz this is obviously not representative of his abilities as an artist. Making an appointment was super easy, we stopped in the passed Sunday and left a deposit, came back last night and got inked. He called us around 6 because he had a cancellation so we were able to get in a little earlier (sweet). I think the prep time took longer than the actual tattoo, we got a stick figure tribute to our dog who we had to put to sleep a few weeks ago. Shawn loved the story and was fun to deal with. I will most definitely be back, most likely to deal with Shawn. The shop is clean and spacious, decorated nicely with various types of art on the walls.

    The AMAZING Frank the Rabbit from the movie "Donnie Darko" tattoo that Mike Lopez of Pure Ink Tattoo did for me! I love it!

    I visited Pure Ink for the first time this past weekend for my second tattoo. The shop is super clean, great atmosphere, comfortable waiting couches, and lovely interior design. I made an appointment with Mike Lopez for my tattoo and he was exceptional! He was so kind, understanding, took his time, and made sure I was comfortable the whole way through. My tattoo was a big one so it took about 5 hours, but the time really flew by. My tattoo came out better than I could have ever imagined and I was so impressed by Mike's technique and the fact that he kept going back in to add more details and colors, even when the tattoo looked like it was ready to go. I appreciate all of the time he took to make it exactly what I envisioned and more and I will absolutely be coming back to Pure Ink and to a Mike Lopez again soon!

    Our first ever tattoos! Thanks Dan Rotundo for a great first experience. We are so pleased.

    My initial interactions with Shawn began when I was looking to get a cover up of an old tattoo…read morereworked and cleaned up. From the moment I introduced myself to him, he was warm, friendly, and welcoming. He immediately put me at ease with a well thought out plan on how to fix up and rework the piece. He took the time to listen to my thoughts and offered creative suggestions. Shawn was transparent from the beginning that he stands behind his work fully and will do whatever it takes to bring your vision to light. Beyond his integrity, the thing that stood out most to me was how incredibly passionate Shawn is about the reputation of his shop. How deeply he cares about the business that he has undoubtedly put his heart and soul into building. How meaningful it is to uphold his standing as an honest and reputable shop. Shawn not only cares about the craft of tattooing but he genuinely cares about every customer that he interacts with. It is a truly daunting endeavor to put your trust in a tattoo artist in the hopes that they will take your ideas and design and transplant them skillfully onto your skin for you to display permanently. It can easily go so wrong. However, I am so pleased that Shawn was able to make it right.

    BEST TATTOO SHOP IN NEW JERSEY FOR SURE!!! My bf and I came in for him to look at some tattoos. He…read moretold one of the tattoo artist that he was looking to spend $100-$150 on a tattoo. The guy said to get an idea of what he wants. After, looking he found a few that he liked. But, wasn't in his price range. The man then said well we do have an apprentice here today you can take a look at her art and let us know. My boyfriend was thinking okay I'm assuming she charges around my price range. He asked how much it would be and the guy said it is free!!! My boyfriend was all in at this point. He had an amazing experience with Claire and left with a bad ass tattoo. He even went back a few weeks after that and got another one. The owner Shawn is amazing!! He's super nice. Even talked about the New Jersey devils while getting his tattoo done. Over all an amazing experience. The vibe is great everyone just talking and laughing. Every single one of the staff members are great as well. Unfortunately, Claire isn't doing free tattoos anymore. But, he's definitely thinking on spending some money to have her to tattoo him again. THANK YOU NORTH JERSEY. ALSO SHOUT OUT TO CLAIRE. Wanna check her art out? Her instagram is @ckconnellydraws
