My friend and I had an appointment booked for a Tuesday that happened to be 2 days after the blizzard. We called and messaged the shop multiple times trying to see if they were open, no response. We were worried about losing our deposit money, as they were not very friendly the first time we were there, so we drove almost an hour there at our schedule appointment time. They're closed. We did not receive a call the day after, or the day after that. No one reached out to reschedule our appointments, or to apologize about not informing us the shop would be closed. When we finally got in contact with them, they told us they might not to refund our deposits to us. It took over a week of back and forth calls to finally get our money back. Only leaving two stars because the tattoos from the first time look fine. Other than that I will not be returning due to the unprofessional service and rude attitude from our tattoo artist. read more

Do not go here for piercings. Or at least don't get one from the owner. I forget his name but it's the older man. I went here a couple years ago to get my eye brow and nostril pierced. I should've got up and walked away when I realized the lack of sterile procedure and preparation. He had to re pierce my nostril 3 times cause he didn't use the right gauge/jewelry. When he pierced my eyebrow he left me sitting there with the big a** needle hanging from my eyebrow because he didn't have the jewelry ready in his hand. 0/10 recommend. read more

Well... I first met Doug a few years ago, when I look for a nice place to do my tattoo... When I saw his artwork and professionalism and attention to the details I decided to do my first professional tattoo... The tattoo looks so nice I did 3 more... and my wife did two small ones... Years later I come with the idea of getting colored tattoo, and I'm in love with the results... and I'll be back to do 3 more... Doug understands what I want and take the time for designing and adds he own creativity and talent at my colored art... Thanks man... you did a fabulous job... see you soon... read more

Nunzio has the personality of a wet mop. You try to talk to him and he ignores you. Like do you really think people are going to tip you for rudeness? How about being on time and answering people when they speak to you. It makes it very awkward for the person in the chair. Also, if you're trying to quit smoking or you have asthma, don't go here. It's like a cloud of smoke wafting in because everyone is in and out with a cigarette going. Then at the end they hit you with a huge bill. What the f&$k....DO YOU WANT CLIENTS OR ARE WE BOTHERING YOU!?!?!? read more

I got a navel piercing by Jessie and she was amazing! She was very good at explaining everything to me and her vibe was outstanding. Very experienced and good at her job. Communication was on point. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. I am absolutely APPALLED at the demeanor in which this establishment operates and speaks to its customers. UNPROFESSIONAL is an understatement. My little sister and her friend wanted to get a piercing here and we're simply calling to ask what they needed to bring with them if they were to come in and get a piercing (obviously an adult and paperwork would need to be present because they are minors). The guy who answered called himself the manager and when one of the girls politely ask what she needed he aggressively replied what was needed. The problem however was that this girl wanted to know if her legal guardian was OK instead of parent because both of her parents are unfortunately dead. When she told him this all he said to her saying that was "tough shit" and hung up on her. As an older sister overhearing this phone call I was absolutely shocked that not only a so called "professional" was to act like this but more importantly A GROWN ASS MAN!! As an adult I decided to handle this situation differently and find out more information so I called the shop and asked to speak to the manager and he said that was him, I then asked if I could actually speak to the owner, he replied "What do you want this is my free day what do you want!??" He left me speechless!!! Seriously a disgusting excuse for a human being. I can only imagine how deep the level of unprofessionalism goes here. Customer service is awful and on a moral note to speak to a child like this is disgusting! I wouldn't trust these people to do my tattoos or piercings if my life depended on it. Do not go here. read more

Great shop . I have had three tattoos done here all three of them have lasted a long time colors have stayed bright and vibrant . First tattoo was done by the older gentleman I'm Not sure if his name and the other two by Nunzio . Their prices are low but quality good . read more

Skin Deep Tattoo Studios - supposed to be an evil eye. most of the lines have completely disappeared. made sure to take care of it too. - Tattoo Near Me - Abington, Massachusetts

Not exactly sure why this place has been getting such bad reviews. . Maybe its because Nick hasn't always been there? I'm not a heavily tattoo'd girl. I have five but all in hidden places. So as you can imagine, I freak out if one thing is wrong on my body for the rest of my life. My first tattoo (elsewhere) was a nightmare! The line work was terrible, and the artist kept on making sexual comments. I was 18 and it was my first experience, so as you can imagine i was VERY uncomfortable. Needless to say i never went back again. I then gave another location a shot. Nick was my artist! I absolutely loved him and the work he did for me. I've gone back to him three different times. I'm itching for more, and will absolutely follow him to whatever shop he goes to. I've gotten multiple compliments on how fantastic the line work was on my multiple tattoos. Nick plays the music you request, and cracks jokes. He's easy to talk to and does a terrific job. Now what to get next..... read more

Got a tattoo here about a year ago, as soon as I stepped foot in here I knew I should've left. This place is so unprofessional. I have many tattoos and know how to take care of them, this one I got here however is the worst. I tell everyone not to come here and will never be returning myself. read more

This was my first time getting a tattoo and I didn't know what to expect. I went with my sister for our birthdays. She has been here before and highly recommended that we go here. We had Nick do both our tattoos and he was amazing. He is such a funny guy and he made me feel calm about getting my first tattoo. He showed me how everything works and he explained in great detail how to take care of my tattoo when I got home. Next time I am going to get a tattoo, I will definitely go back here and ask for Nick. read more

This place is great! The owner and his son are both very friendly and his son did an awesome job replicating the sketch I brought in almost exactly how I drew it (minus a few super tiny detailed parts that would look like shit in ten years if he would have included them). He also seemed to really CARE about how the tattoo turned out, as if it was just as much his as it was mine :-). Plus, the prices here are really reasonable - nothing crazy expensive, so that's always nice! read more

Skin Deep Tattoo Studios - I'm really happy with how this one came out :') - Tattoo Near Me - Abington, Massachusetts

Lets start two years ago. Made an appointment with Nunzio And waited the week for it. I got there on time and he had Gone home. I ended up with another artist. On May 10, 2021, I walked in and made an appointment. I arrived today for that appointment 15 minutes early to allow extra time in case he needed it. I sat out front and no one was at the desk. No one greeted me, no one asked why I was there even the artist who walked by. After I had been sitting there for an 45mins, I asked Nunzio (who was with a client) what's going on. He said he didn't know he had a 2:00 appointment. Nice! By 2:45, the other artist came out front. I told him forget it, I want my deposit back. After being given an attitude, I hope the return comes through. I'm sure the tattoos are fine but an Artist should be aware that he has an appointment on his book! Clients should never be left in the front without being talked to at all. I won't go back. It wasted too much of my time And I walked out annoyed and without a tattoo. When clients book with you have the professionalism to know what your schedule looks like!!! Never again. read more

doug did awesome!!!!! will be going back again. definitely recommend..... did my sister and my aunt too (:

I got a tattoo today from Jay. He is an amazing artist. Jay walked me through the whole process, was very attentive and patient. I got a beautiful tattoo, well worth every dime. read more

Friendly artists that seem to be talented. Got one tattoo here - artist was fun to be with and did a good job. I wanted to get another and possibly even more, but the guy kept telling me he'd call me back and never returned any messages. I stopped calling and will never set foot in there again. I wish i got to experience it a little more, but judging by this experience, i would reccomend at least 5 shops first. read more

Went to the abington location 2 years ago. Mike pierced my lip. He screwed up and did it vertically so the back was sticking straight up and you could see it with my mouth closed. I told him I wasn't pleased. He said "ok we'll just have to do it again." So I was put through twice the pain. It was lower than I wanted. The ball fell out, so I went back the next day. He said he would have to charge me for a new piercing to fix it. I said fuck that and left. read more

Went in with my 3 besties for tattoos tonight and Mickey, Nunzio and Doug were gracious, entertaining and TALENTED! We all got AWESOME tattoos that we're proud of and the service was AMAZING. So friendly and patient. I will DEFINITELY be back. read more

Went here on a whim because the place I was gonna check out was on vacation. I had a picture that my sister had drawn and George asked if he could fix it up. He did and I loved what he drew, it still had my sisters artwork, he just cleaned it up a bit. His artwork was awesome and the tattoo came out great. I was a little skeptical from the reviews on here, but I'm glad I went. The only thing is that while you wait there really isn't anything to do other than just run down to get a coffee. Luckily I didn't have to wait too long and I'm really happy with the tattoo I got. George was really cool and did exactly what I wanted. I would (and did) recommend them to my friends. read more

Been going to them for every single tattoo I have (5) I do plan on getting a lot more done and a couple of piercings. If u end up going I recommend Jay he is a great guy and does an amazing job. He has done all of mine and will make sure that u are happy before and after. read more

I went into this place impulsively at random and was not pleased. My friend and I were getting simple cartilage piercings. The people who worked there seemed friendly and kind but not the most professional. There were only folding chairs for us to sit in while getting pierced, the room was tiny and messy. Our piercer was fumbling and dropping things during the piercing process, seemed disorganized and unprofessional. At one point he touched my earring with his bare unwashed hands (no gloves), and neither the earring nor the needle were sanitized before the piercing. Granted my ear was cleaned, and the needle and earring had come straight out of the sealed package, but at every other place I've been to there was much more sanitizing going on. When he pierced my ear, it started GUSHING blood and he said he'd never seen anything like it before. I didn't get charged for anything and they sent me home with a free belly button ring which was nice of them, but still the most unsanitary and unprofessional body mod shop I've ever been to. I was so afraid of the piercing becoming infected that I took it out and cleaned it as soon as I got home. Would not recommend to anyone ever. read more

I got my ear pierced by Mike this past month which came out fine. I also wanted to get a tattoo of a simple arrow on my foot. I showed Doug what I wanted, he asked another guy to draw the outline and I ended up with a horrible tattoo. Stay away from this place! read more

Highly recommend seeing Doug. He was great and paid attention to the little details, which is so important and often overlooked unfortunately by some other artists. Everyone there is also extremely nice which makes you want to come back again. read more

They look awesome and weren't that expensive. They got me in with out a problem and were very nice there. I recommend this place to anyone. read more

I went to the Quincy location about 5-6 years ago to get a tattoo on my ankle. This was my first tattoo I ever got and so I expected that when you go into a "professional" tattoo place... you'll be tattooed by a professional. Is that weird to think? Well.... I got my tattoo.... my best friend was w/ me and took a picture of me getting it done... I was told at the time that their system was down so they encouraged me to pay in cash... not thinking anything of it - I appreciated them warning me and paid them in cash. About a month later I came back because the tattoo wasn't even colored in in some spots. When I went back in the manager did not have a record of me going there. I filled out paper work - they took a copy of my ID - nothing was there. They asked how I paid and I said cash b/c of the computers being down - the owner told me the computers are never down. Well - after about 20 minutes of them trying to figure it out - me having the picture of myself getting tattooed in their chair... turns out the owner was away at the time and an apprentice had tattooed me. The apprentice was not allowed to tattoo customers.. awesome! The owner offered me to try to fix it but still it did not look anything like the picture that I brought. Here I am 5-6 years later trying to have the tattoo laser removed off which cost a TON of money and a lot of pain and no help offered when I contacted the shop to tell them my plan. I should've sued at the time or they should have offered to help me remove it. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE GO INTO THIS SHOP for the simple reason of them realizing the HUGE mistake by an employee and never offering to help w/ the removal process. Thanks a lot Skin Depp. read more

I have gotten two tattoos at Skin Deep, with two different tattoo artists. I love their service. They're friendly and always get the job done well. Their prices aren't too high either! read more

got my first tattoo here at the abington shop today and it came out very nice, a couple lines are like a millimeter or less off but it was on my chest and and i didnt communicate well when i needed to breathe, and may have moved a bit during the sternum parts because they hurt like hell, so my advice to anyone coming here for a chest piece, or getting a chest piece in general would be to communicate about needing to breathe. Nick was the artist, he was super friendly and took very good care of me; he let me pick the music, was genuinely nice and talkative, offered me great advice on aftercare, and even some free ointment! the price was very fair, it was around an hour (maybe a little over or under, i was a bit woozy toward the end and didnt notice time) and i paid 150, and he offered to give me touch ups and gave me his card. the piece was very geometric and complicated, and it came out amazingly, the atmosphere was nice, the needles were brand new, and i dont give perfect reviews ever. if i want any more tattoos, i am definitely calling him first. i wouldve given a 9/10 but i have to give a 4/5. read more
