I've gotten all my work done here, and it's the only place I'll ever go. The lines are fantastic, so straight. Steve is honest too. I went in and showed him my idea and he straight up told me that the quality wouldn't come out as good as I hoped for and that he didn't want to do anything that would be less than quality. We worked together to come up with another idea that I absolutely love. I'm not sure what Bethany is trying to say in her review, all my work looks fantastic and none of them are tramp stamps. I haven't had any experience with Scott, as I've gotten all my tats done by Steve. He took the time to work out with me exactly what I wanted, positioned it on my body and made sure it was perfect in my eyes. When I got my first tattoo, he explained what would happen, how it would feel, and what to expect. My first tattoo did not hurt whatsoever and was less nerve-racking than I was expecting. When I go in now he talks to me while I'm being tattooed to calm my nerves. When I got my rib piece done he would explain which part he was working on and what kind of needle he was using, whether it was for shading or outlining. He let me take a little break for lunch to keep my blood sugar up and continued to work. He's very honest and upfront, and the shop is always clean. I feel like I would be cheating on them if I got my work done elsewhere. His rates are fantastic for the work that he does, and he's been tattooing for 25+ years. Great guy, great shop. I highly recommend you go to the shop and check it out for yourself. read more

Owner, Steve a tattoo America did a fantastic job throughout the visit and sitting. He is extremely experienced, knows what he's doing and makes you feel comfortable and confident in his ability. He made three passes on each letter, and his prices are fair. I highly recommend Steve for any tattoo, especially a precision tattoo. You're in great hands! read more

Customer service was awful. My tattoos look like shit. I have to go get them touched up from somewhere else because I refuse to go back to this place after being told that because I was blinking that it would be my fault if my tattoos were messed up!!!! BLINKING! How do you not blink?? Vibe was awful owner was not helpful when it came to advice regarding anything. read more

Had the most amazing experience here today! My husband and I went in, Steve and his wife were so professional, clean, and perfectionists! Our tattoos are perfect and will definitely stop back in if we take a trip back to NH!!! read more

About 7 years ago, I went to with my friend to get tattoos while on vacation in Hampton Beach. I wanted a lock for my husband and my friend wanted to get an anchor. My tattoo was placed on my foot and the artist (owner) added a flower in background. I remember how rude and the arrogance of the owner. He was talking to my friend nasty and I was not treated much better. I felt like a kid scared to breath or move! The tattoos however came out nice and healed well... flash to my daughter turns 18 and we go for her first tattoo as a finale to the vacation. The website clearly says "walk ins only" ooops I mean their FB says this... website is not functional... we arrive at 11am and sit in parking lot. 12pm, we walk in and start to ask a question and the same guy, cuts me off and asks if I have a 12pm... I said I thought this is a first come first serve environment which is what is advertised. He said "I make the rules, not you... I'm all set!". I said excuse me I'm just saying that we have been here since 11am. He said we could have sat there since yesterday, he is all set... customer service is horrible and completely unnecessary. Definitely not how anyone should be treated. Needless to say, we went to another place down the street with a higher rating and high quality service! Save your money and be treated like the paying customer you are! read more

So bad - the amount of scarring on my tattoo is so severe it's already raised and hard - i asked the artist to stop for a break because it felt like he was pushing down way too hard - he ignored me and felt like he pushed harder after i asked for a break ~ so so bad - do not go here read more

Owner did 2 tats for me that day. Almost 2 weeks later and my skin is dug up, heavily scabbed, and yes I followed after care instructions (I have 15 plus tattoos) He was also inflexible when it came to deign details, condescending and rude. Pretty sure this is infected and cant imagine what it will look like if it ever heals. read more

My best friend and I got matching tattoos here around the first week of August. We had the guy with gray long hair that wore a ponytail. He did a incredible tattoo. But his attitude towards my best friend was incredibly terrible. He was saying that she was of his top 5 worst people he's ever tattooed. He kept violently yelling at her to stay still. Never tried to comfort her or make her feel better. it was always "this is one of the worst i've ever tattooed, your lucky I know what i'm doing" Just being a complete asshole and cocky as hell. I don't know if i'm wrong but everyone reacts to things differently. You don't ever know how a person will react to certain things. So is it so bad to treat them with kindness at least. Me and my friend will NOT be going back here because of that terrible man. And I recommend none of you go here unless you want to be verbally harassed. read more

Got my 1st tattoo here and 20 + years later went back again and was NOT disappointed @ all!!!! Scott was amazing. I did try Jim's tattoo 1st and they were RUDE AF and basically said he couldn't tattoo the area I wanted (behind my ear) acted like I was a bother .. well thank you to the rude guy @ Jim's because it sent me to where I should have gone in the 1st place :) So happy with my birds Scott!! read more

At first experience I was extremely happy with this place. Sadly, a day after my tattoo got extremely infected and when I saw another tattoo artist he informed me that whoever did the tattoo went too deep. I first thought it was my fault, but after 9 other tattoos I think I know how to take care of a tattoo. It's also infected in the 3 spots that are thicker than the rest of the tattoo. I'm extremely disappointed. read more

When I got my first tattoo, I asked randomly inked people where they had their beautiful work done, and more than half pointed me towards Tattoo America in Seabrook. First off, the place is clean, it isn't like one of those dungeons with shit strewn everywhere, and piles of unorganized crap leaving you with little room to get work done. It prides itself on a hospital-clean work area, and it delivers on this promise. I've always picked my art at home off original work or the Internet, and Scott has never had a problem transfering that image perfectly directly on my body. And they have enough experience to know how to make a tattoo look right on whatever body part you choose to put it. read more

This is the number 1 place I recommend to get a tattoo. The guys that own it are brothers and have been tattooing for over 20 years. It is a family business and they are good at what they do. They have books upon books of all their work, plus the walls are covered with their work as well. I got my second tattoo there, my bf got his first, and my brother will be getting his second one there. There hours are 12-7 year round and they have off season prices (the fall/winter months) where all the prices are basically half off. It's so worth it for me to travel to the next state for an awesome tattoo read more

Love my tattoo. They did an awesome job. Over 10 years later, it still looks great! I need to go back for my second one, if I ever make it back to NH!! read more

Worst client relation and overall attitude. Upon walking in to Tattoo America, I was greeted by a not-so-thrilled attendant. She asked what I wanted, I showed her a picture. She said that it wasn't possible and to come back with just a black and white picture they can just copy. At this point, one of that tattoo "artists" came out and told me that my tattoo just wasn't worth it. That he could crank out two in the time it took him to draw out mine and then tattoo it. WORST experience! However, I immediately went to Jim's Tattoo down the street! They were courteous, kind, and professional. I walked out within the hour with an originally drawn tattoo by and amazing artist. Don't even bother with Tattoo America! read more

So amazing and professional. The owners are so thorough and professional, took time to perfect the tattoo. Theres no other place in new engljand i'm going. read more

This place has the WORST customer service I have ever had to deal with in my life. I'm not going here I don't trust them. I worldview recommend this place to my worst enemy. There are PLENTY of other tattoo artists out there that I don't HAVE to put up with their shit. They think that they're better than everybody else and they're not. They don't want to give you an appointment unless you've already been there. Discrimination and I will be calling the better business bureau to give them another shifty review. Bad reviews all over the place. That's what happens when you piss people off. Whoever answers the phone should be fired. read more

My husband and I made an appointment to get tattoos after going into the shop to discuss what we wanted in detail with Dawn. She seemed helpful and made suggestions as to change up our idea. She was a little pushy with what she thought we should do but I thought she was just making sure we got the best quality tattoo. I had to find the artwork I wanted online and send it to her via Facebook which I thought was odd but okay. When we came in, the drawing she gave us for my husband tattoos wasn't what we asked for. The placement of the name was in the wrong place. Dawn was completely offended that my husband wanted her to change it. She reminded us that her "artwork" should be billed at $120 an hour but she did it for free...Okay. The artwork was done on the computer. She also had the spelling of my husbands name wrong on my tattoo even after I sent her the spelling on facebook. My daughter came in with us and wanted to see if she could get a very simple tattoo (in honor of my battle with breast cancer). It was a heart with a breast cancer ribbon on the side. Dawn warned her that the pink color she wanted for the ribbon (without a black outline) may spread over time. The design was very small and simple and my daughter really didn't want the outline. She was discussing it with my husband. He said "don't worry about it if that's what you really want. I've seen it before...you might need to fixed after time.". My daughter understood Dawn's advice but wanted to do it anyway. She's the paying customer, right??? WRONG. When STEVE finished with the customer ahead of us, he called someone else over to the chair. Then he YELLED. Yes I mean YELLED across the tattoo shop, "I'M NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR BUSINESS! YOU CAN GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!" We were completely confused and embarrassed. When we asked why he said it was because he doesn't do business with people who "think they know more than we do about tattoos"! Dawn stepped in and said he overhead what my husband said about my daughters tattoo and thought it was very rude and disrespectful! UNBELIEVABLE! My husband tried to ask Steve how exactly his comment that my daughter's tattoo would be okay they way she wanted it if that's what she had her heart set on RUDE and DISRESPECTFUL???? He wouldn't even look up at my husband. These people have GIGANTIC EGOS and have no interest in being polite to customers. Dawn and Steve want to churn out their "artwork" on the computer and have no one question them whatsoever. The customer doesn't have the right to have an opinion even though they are paying for the tattoo. By the way, we went down the street to Jim's Tattoo. Everyone there was POLITE and FRIENDLY and PROFESSIONAL. My daughter got her tattoo the way she wanted it. Jim's was professional and advised her of what could happen to her tattoo over time. Joe did the tattoo and it was awesome. Korie did my husband and I's tattoos and they came out awesome. The actual artwork was so much better read more

I went here to try to get a pentacle, a Pagan symbol of nature because, well it was almost literally across the street from where I lived. The guy working said "Oh, we don't do THAT symbol here." Yet the place was perfectly fine having a swastika(Or maybe Manji, but I* don't think ti was turned the right way for that) in their examples. Oh well, I went elsewhere and got a great tattoo, that even with color is holding up around perfectly around/over a half decade later and still going strong. read more

I have had two tattoos done at the studio. The first was down two and a half years ago. The color is still vibrant and the lines crisp; I get compliments on the quality of the work all the time. My newest is still healing and looks great too. I have found Steve and Dawn to both be easy to work with and I have had a fun and engaging experience each time I have gone in. Dawn and Steve have a lot of experience and take the time engage with their clients to find the balance between what the client wants and how the ink and body will react to ensure that the tattoos look great over time. I won't trust anyone else to tattoo me. I also love that they have a clean studio and artists working there must have clean drug tests. read more

If I could give zero stars I would... On vacation I decided to try tattoo America out for a 4th tattoo. Upon walking in to a completely EMPTY shop, I was greater by who I can only assume was the owners daughter ( who was all of 16) who couldn't have cared that I was there and went back to texting on her phone after calling over the tattoo artist. He looked at my image and told me it couldn't be done-- and that he was "taking a break right now "... Basically he didnt want to do a smaller tattoo. He was condescending and rude! I walked out and would NEVER GO BACK AGAIN! I ended up at Jim's down the road and they were AMAZING! The work was done correctly - took all if 10 mins and the staff was sooo awesome. They worked with me from start to finish. Go to Jim's NOT tattoo America! read more

I got my first tattoo here at the tender age of 18. The guy who performed the deflowering of my virgin skin was quick and clean. I have no idea how they are running the show now but I am sure that tramp stamps keep them in business on Canal. Find a tattoo artist with a MFA -- that's my advice. read more

If you want quality work by trustworthy, clean, and knowledgable artists go to Tattoo America. I am covered with there work, and more than once I have complemented people about there work only to be told tattoo America did theirs to. (no surprise). Both artists are cool guys to talk with while getting your work done and they genuinely care about what where and how you want your tattoo. They care more about their quality in workmanship than just stamping u with any old shit just to take your $$. You will get an honest opinion on the placement, size, and style of your tatt ideas and that to me means everything. These guys are true professionals who's word should be held in high regards when it comes to their ideas. I have used other artists from other parlors as well so i am not biased in just promoting the one and only tattoo parlor i have ever been to. Anyone who has tattoos always feels "their artist" is the best and will always push others to go to "their guy". I have sampled other shops and actually liked other shops, but none to me compared to Tattoo America.I highly recommend anyone who wants a colorful, detailed, impressive tattoo to go to Tattoo America. read more

This place is an actual joke. They do a shitty job for something that is permanent. Please do yourself a favor and put your money towards an actual tattoo parlor that knows what they're doing. I'd give 0 stars but that's not an option. read more
