I was turned away I wanted a coverup of an ex's name I have. They told me I need to go get it lightened first by laser then come back. This is where I originally got the tattoo about 15 years ago. He had no interest at all in even giving me other options. I will not be going back even if do the laser. read more

Overall had a great experience. I have gotten 2 tattoos so far. One by Greg. My second (in the picture attached). Both experiences were great. They were both easy going. For my second tattoo both sessions were 3 hours with Alyssa and she was really chill. The vibe of the shop is really welcoming. I will be getting all my future tattoos from studio one. read more

Studio One Tattoo - Sports logo tattoo by Alyssa - Tattoo Near Me - Norwood, Pennsylvania

I stopped in on a Friday night without an appointment to get a tattoo. There were a bunch of people there already, mostly for piercings, but I was greeted pretty quickly and the whole process from entry to exit probably only took 40-50 minutes. Ben was my artist and he did a great job. He also was kind enough to chat with me and ease some of my nervousness. He suggested I name the two elephants I got on my wrist, which I have now done (Ellie and Elmer Elephant). Thanks, Ben! The prices were reasonable, and I think I may be bringing my sister-in-law here for her next tattoo. The shop was clean and Ben was a professional. I'm already considering going back to get one of my older tattoos touched up. read more

Got a few piercings from here and they're awesome. Clean friendly and most importantly fast haha. Thank you guys

Amazing! They're extremely sanitary and do an excellent gob, I've only gotten piercings done but I've never been worried, they're extremely professional and kind, I just wish they were doing septums atm but they aren't because of covid which is understandable but it lead me to having a traumatic experience over at upper darby inkwell. All the love to studio one and it's employees best place I've been to. read more

What a great first experience! Studio One came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. My friend and I decided we wanted to get our first tattoo together and were pretty nervous. Alyssa did an amazing job on our tattoos, my piercings (daith and nose), and at calming our nerves. She was very attentive and accommodating asking frequently throughout how we were doing. My friend wanted her design tweaked to be a little smaller and Alyssa had no issues working with her on that. Very positive experience overall. Everyone was super friendly, it was very clean, and it was reasonably priced. I will definitely be back! read more

Studio One Tattoo - Rose tattoo and Daith piercing by Alyssa - Tattoo Near Me - Norwood, Pennsylvania

Ladies and gentlemen, if you are very interested in getting some body art i would highly recommend heading to these pros. One, they treat you very well as you step into the doors very welcoming, not like other shops where they seem somewhat intimidating. Two, the shop is very clean and organized. Three, they are not very expensive at all. I mean the work these guy do they should be charging more. That is a great plus to this place they really take great pride in giving you what it is you want. I have had work done in this shop a couple of time and I have never been disappointed. I have had work done at other establishments in other states, and this is by far one of the best. read more

I have had one tattoo done here and my boyfriend has had all six of his done here. My boyfriend's were all done by Kevin and mine was done by another artist. I got mine for my 20th birthday. I got a Neuron tattoo on my ribs. I wanted colored dendrites but the artist respectfully told me for such detailed areas, black would be less likely to fade. I took his advice. I am glad they are honest here and do what is best for quality of the tattoo. I'm sure other places would just do anything for the customer without thinking about quality over the long term. I was very satisfied with my tattoo. My boyfriend's tattoos have held up very well and still look great. His first one done is about 6 years old now. Mine is 3 years old and the lines are still very crisp. I think the prices here can be a bit high - but I am willing to pay that price for something I know will be high quality. read more

Just got my second tattoo in over a decade today from Studio One. Great service, great prices and a staff that never makes you feel intimidated. After 13 years it's great to see this place is still turning out fantastic work. Thanks Greg! read more

I got my latest body modification done in this fine establishment, and it was a wonderful experience. Or as wonderful an experience can be when having spikes driven through your flesh. My best friend and I went to Studio One on a Friday night with no appointment. Thankfully we were made to feel very welcome and were taken right back before I could bitch out. Alyssa was my piercer and she did her best to put me at ease. Her piercing was very quick and efficient which I appreciated. After the piercing when it looked like I might hit the floor, Alyssa gave me water and helped me regain my composure. Studio One is super clean and the staff is very competent and do phenomenal work. Highly recommended! read more

I highly recommend this awesome tattoo shop! This shop deserves 5 stars for so many reasons. When I first walked in a nice gentleman named Dan greeted me, gave me advice on where I should put my first tattoo and then introduced me to Alyssa. Once she drew up the design I wanted, I immediately fell in love! She was so sweet and made sure that I felt comfortable throughout the whole process. My tattoo turned out better than I could have ever imagined and I am so thankful! Come check out this shop...once you see how cool the artwork looks on the walls, you will be hooked as well. read more

My friend and I came in for piercings. I called earlier in the day to ensure they had availability to do so, and was greeted by a really friendly employee. He told me absolutely, and to just walk-in. When we arrived, he remembered me calling and gave us an approximate wait time since the artists were finishing tattoos. Greg pierced my nose years ago and I chose to return here this time because of the good experience I had. Greg was just as wonderful as the first time with his accommodation and attentiveness. My friend was pierced by someone else (unfortunately I forget his name) but he was also very friendly and efficient. At least to me, tattoo parlors can feel intimidating (in general) but that's not the case here. I felt welcomed and accommodated. The two experiences I've had encourage me to return in the future. I would recommend to anyone. read more

Clean and inviting with a very friendly staff! I had my nose pierced by Greg, who was very patient with all my questions and concerns, and was in and out within about 10 minutes. I'm very satisfied with my piercing and if I had the money I would go back tomorrow and get more! read more

I got my tat there years ago and never had a problem. Also was pierced there. The staff is friendly and the place is clean. One of the best in the area. I would trust them with anything i needed done. read more

Studio One is and has been one of my favorite tattoo shops. The staff are highly qualified and unlike some other establishments in the area they care about the tradition of tattooing and apprenticeship. The owner Paul is a really great guy and has built an awesome business. I have tattoos from almost every person who works here. The place is super clean and there's tons of flash on the walls and books to look through for each artist. Appointments are easy to make and there's a convenient lot for parking next door. I have also had several piercings done here and the staff is professional and knowledgeable. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for body mods in the area. Of the current staff I highly recommend Paul, Greg or Kevin. read more

Great experience at this shop for myself and my daughter. We were pierced by Dan (nose and navel) who was very polite and thorough while explaining the aftercare process. Overall, shop is clean and well lit. We will be back. read more

This place is great. I got two tats here, they were both so well done I will tell them in chronological order. Tattoo #1: Flaming Smoking Skull for my Father: I got my first tattoo here for my father that passed away a few years back, it was the first time I had anything put on my body and I'm in my mid-thirties and work for a Forbes 500 company on the professional ladder, so body art still is really "accepted" in my field of work, but I needed a way to express my emotions and wanted it to be lasting but classy. After looking at several sites and reading several reviews I decided on Studio One tattoo in Norwood, PA. The shop is very welcoming and basically looks like any other tat shop, but it is not the décor that is important to me, it is the customer service, professionalism and attitude. For my first tat the owner (Paul Palladino - which is a very straight, cool, normal dude just looking to help you out) introduced me to the idea of tattooing and how a design "flows" on your body. For my design I brought in a PowerPoint slide and after a week I came back and the artist that took my design "Jimmy" made his own with the advice of Paul Palladino, it turned out WAY BETTER than I have ever imaged. During the process they were cool normal people, no attitude, I could have been buying a painting from them, they just approached me like a normal customer and had me consider different things etc. They look like any other tat shop but the right attitude is there, which is a big plus for me. Since I had such a great experience the first time I was thinking over the next four years of getting another one and thought maybe I should try someone else. So I looked at reviews from Philly to Wilmington, and Studio One was one of the top three in the region. So I entered a few placed and they all had the "we are cooler than you" attitude or made me wait a half hour before anyone would even ask, "what can I help you with". Studio One is immediate, Alyssa comes out and sees you, very cool, like you are there to get your hair cut or something, no facade, very genuine, that is the trust I need to feel when I'm getting something that will stay on my body forever. Since I had a good experience the first time I decided to go back to where I KNOW I will get good service, Studio One tat in Norwood. Tattoo #2: Koi Dragon: I wanted something that could describe my life and my personality, I tried with Kenji and other Chinese characters but decided not to mess around with a language that I did not understand myself. When I first showed up they said "speak with Kevin, he knows that sort of Asian stuff", so I returned and met Kevin Riley who also by the way is a professional himself, builds his own tat guns and has a separate site with blog full library and does these sorts of super complicated designs. The best thing about working with Kevin was how easy it was to share ideas. Unlike a lot of shops, Kevin communicated by e-mail for all my designs, which were sent as ppt, or pdf files from online sources. He usees an iPad to schedule everyone and everything is at his fingertips, very nice! I just got it done and it is just beautiful. The shop is cool, we talked about politics and history hanging in the shop for 4 hours while he did the tat, everyone was very professional actually, cool laid back people but nothing weird, like they were all sort of some family under Paul, I really like that business atmosphere. On top of that Kevin did my huge tat all in one sitting without rushing. Originally, he quoted me for about 6 hours, two sessions each, in the end it came out to 4 hours and he charged me for such, he could have made me come back and made 30% more salary, but he didn't, he was extremely fair, so I tipped him good, people like actually deserve good tips. Users reviews really matter, unlike 15 years ago, today I will not purchase something online or go to a business unless the reviews are all great, one bad review can really kill your business, it is really unfortunate. Do not judge the place by its online site (which just needs an update and should be done since this is the "face" of your business), look at the individual artist pages, just stop in or read all the great reviews here, I see others have had similar experiences. Well I have to say, I have had two tats done here, they were both amazing, I am very happy with the service there and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone who wishes to get a tat there, your first or twentieth, Studio One tattoo is worth the trip. I guess lastly I would like to admit that this is the FIRST time I have EVER written an online review about any product ever. I usually read a ton but never contribute, this time I felt compelled because of the quality of the work and people, it was worth the effort of dropping a word about what I think. These guys (and girl) are awesome. Cheers, Matthew S read more

Came here for a septum piercing on a quiet, fast-paced Sunday afternoon by Alyssa. All the workers there, including her, are polite and work so diligently and with passion. The piercing was only $50, which including a surgical-steel ring, while at pop-up shops in malls or at Claire's you would have to pay up to $60 starting price for lower quality rings! She talked me through the entire process and was very patient with my cooperation, as was I with her's. The building itself is very clean and colorful and has a pleasant waiting room. Would definitely come back for a tattoo or another piercing in the future!!! If you go for a tattoo, tell Kevin that Thomas's daughter said keep up the good work! read more

Had a weird experience with Dave Fox. Consultation, he called my cover up I had "wrong." And when I gave him my ideas, he said "nah well do it my way because that way is wrong." Dude. It's my tattoo... Tip=gone During the session he free handed on my arm. Wasn't feeling the lower sleeve. Suggested him knocking out a different part of my arm instead, to which he replied "nah if we're not doing that (the markered part) we're done." Okay bye. I'm leaving with my $1000. Never had an artist act like that. By the way, he's $200 an hour, the most you will pay any artist around besides famous ones. His work is pretty good if you're into that stuff like I am, but his customer service sucks. Just seemed like an angry dude or maybe he wanted to be in control. Nah, the customer is in control and that's why he (I) left. Don't let artists be rude. Many have steered me in the right direction with pieces in a respectful way even if i didn't agree with the idea repeatedly. read more

Worst experience ever. Thankfully I didnt get my tattoo done there but only because Greg was one of the rudest people I have ever dealt with. Never returned my calls then blew off my appointment that i had made 5 weeks in advance. Go to explosive in new castle DE, at least there they'll treat you right AND give you an amazing tatt! read more
