    Second tattoo on my calf.

    I've gotten two medium sized tattoos at Three Kings. It's an amazing shop filled with great people. Everything is very clean and all of the tattoo artists are very nice. They kept talking about the design and color to make sure it turned out best as possible. I got my first and second tattoo both times by Simon. He's such a great dude and does solid work. I've loved both designs and will definitely be coming back.

    If I could give 100 stars I would! Customer service is immaculate here. Both my artist Thom and the Manager Matt went above and beyond for me. Coming in for my first tattoo it was intimidating but they made it a very enjoyable experience for me. Would recommend to any one living or visiting the Brooklyn area to get work done here!

    my tattoo after a week
    Julia S.

    I'm honestly very upset with the experience my mom, sister and I had at this shop. We came in for 3 matching tiny heart tattoos on our arms last week for my birthday as walk ins. We were setup with Ian. The initial interaction was okay, we were taken back quickly and were given a small heart stencil, we were told this was the smallest that could be done in red ink. Me and my mom agreed to the size, shape and color so we proceeded with the tattoo. After my tattoo was done, I loved it and thought it was perfect, I was very happy. Then we began to discuss my sister's tattoo and my sister was a little unsure of the size because she wanted it smaller. Ian told her that he couldn't do it any smaller in red, it would have to be black. My mom & I didn't like the tone he was using with my 18 year old sister, didn't make us feel comfortable at all especially being the only women in the shop at the time. We proceed with my mom's tattoo. Looks great on her too. My sister ends up waiting to see if we can get it done smaller somewhere else, and we did. It came out beautiful and healed perfectly fine. Moving on to the healing process. A week later and my mom & I's tattoos are very obviously infected and healing terribly. Pictures are included. We're not even sure what to do at this point beside antibiotic cream and hoping that they heal decently. We will most definitely be going somewhere else to have them touched up once completely healed. There was no positive experience with this shop in my opinion.

    Had an awesome time getting my first tattoo at Three Kings in Brooklyn yesterday. Justin made me feel comfortable and helped to guide me on my decision. The piece I wanted was kind of aggressive for a first tattoo, so I made the call to get something more traditional and he drew up a custom dagger for me that came out perfectly. The shop itself is unpretentious and super welcoming; other artists stopped in to see what Justin was working on and you can tell they are supportive of each other. I kept my deposit with them since I know I'll be coming back!

    New to tattoos and didn't have any of idea of where to go so hit google for some suggestions to get a Paddington one I have been wanting. Three Kings kept popping up and only a 15 minute drive, stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. Met Ramiro and told him my idea. He showed me his work and everything looked awesome so we set an appointment two weeks out. He said he was excited to work on the piece, which me being a newbie to it, definitely was reassuring and made me feel comfortable. Went in on Saturday to get it done and I couldn't be happier with the results. All in took somewhere between an hour and a half and two hours. But it felt like half the time. He kept checking in to make sure I was comfortable and if i needed any breaks. I did not want to look at the progress and just be surprised by the end result. At one point, he asked the fellow artists their opinions on how they would approach some of the shading which was cool seeing the collaboration and wanting to get the best possible results. When all was done, it blew me away. It is my first one with color and the way they pop are awesome. Have a couple more in mind currently and after this one, as well as the rest of his work, will 100% be going back. The studio itself is great too. Very clean, comfortable and all the staff is nice and welcoming. 10/10

    Half inch tattoo done by Juan! It only took him 15 minutes and it looks exactly like the image I provided.

    I had a wonderful experience with a small tattoo I just got. I initially messaged via DM on Instagram to get pricing and discuss my tattoo idea, they promptly responded with all the details I needed to call and set up a consultation with a tattoo artist. I called a few days later and they had availability for walkins so I made my way in. Once I arrived, Juan the tattoo artist was able to see me immediately. The consultation was so smooth and easy and he was able to do exactly what I wanted, to the point that it looked just like the print out!! And he was able to do my small tattoo in about 15 minutes. I was in and out like a breeze. What mostly stood out to me was the customer service. From the initial Instagram DM to the final payment, they were consistent and genuinely kind. I love this because I naturally expect tattoo shops to be grungy and semi-rude, but that was not the case here! They've earned a lifetime customer. Juan, in particular, is so good with thin lines and made my minimalist tattoo look nice and crisp.

    I've wanted my FIRST tattoo FOREVER. It's seriously been the same vision for years: same wording, in the same font, in the same location. I've been putting it off due to fear (read: being a little bitch), but this year, for my birthday, I wanted to FINALLY DO IT. Spontaneously called 3Kings because they had good reviews and the Greenpoint location was most convenient. Walked in so freaking apprehensively on what felt like the hottest day of the year in July. I was seriously hyperventilating at one point. I knew it was so stupid of me to feel that way and I tried to push it off and not embarras myself too much. Front desk staff was somewhat sympathetic and nice (read: wide-eyed, mouth-opened "this bitch is nuts" kinda thought process), brought Shea over (amazing eyes and covered up head to toe!!!) He gave me some tough love, I'll be honest! I didn't like it at first and was all like, "ew ok no wtf? I'm outta here, f this!" but I'm SO GLAD I got over myself (!!!) did it and most importantly, the tat itself came out awesome, too!!!!! Great overall experience! Clean & professional place! It only took 33 years to grow a pair and do this. Couldn't be happier and more proud of myself. Life teaches you so many things about yourself when you choose to be open, take a chance and most importantly, always be true to yourself. Thanks Shea for the swift kick in the ass (dose of realness) I needed to go through with it!!

    Flash piece by Kalatu (follow her instagram at @kalatu_tattoo)

    Finally got a tattoo by Kalatu after following her work for years. She was just as amazing in person and the appointment went perfectly. The front desk assistant was friendly, the shop was following safety standards, there was lots of great art to look at, and the other artists accommodated some walk-ins quickly & with great work. More of a classic tattoo studio vibe than some of the contemporary shops popping up around Brooklyn.

I made an appointment here to get my navel re-pierced and chose this place due to their high ratings and reviews on Google. I can say with confidence that the accolades are well deserved! I had the pleasure of working with George to do my piercing. Upon walking into my appointment I was greeted by another employee who checked my ID and walked me through the process while George was getting ready for me. He was so friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and welcoming! He warned ahead of time that navel is an anatomy- based piercing so there's a chance I won't be able to get it done after my consultation, in addition to aftercare and resources so that I'm well-armed with everything I need to know to take care of my new piercing. In the last I've had my navel done unprofessionally, and then again professionally about a few years ago so I was hesitant about the scarring. George did my consult and assured me that it was safe for me to get it done again. He walked me through the process and talked through exactly what he was doing for prepping and piercing so I didn't get anxiety in anticipation. My navel looks beautiful and it's healing so nicely!! I felt safe, assured that I was getting it done so professionally, and I love how all the info is displayed on the website. All piercers have IGs if you have follow up questions and they respond so fast! Highly recommend!!

I have seen her work on Instagram and so I was not surprised by the quality of art that she is capable of. But when my piece was finalized, I was mind blown and speechless at the level of art that she was able to create. She was able to take the ideas I had and elevate it to a whole new level. She truly is a professional, never rushed and took her time with the smallest detail and I can't thank her enough for this master piece that she had created. On top of all that she showed great hospitality and was very accommodating. This was definitely worth every dollar I had spend and I look forward to more projects with Lynn in the future.

This tat can only be completed by one of the best tattoo artist who uses vision to describe her work of art. And believes that the future is in her hands. I have some ideas that I want to share with my tattoo artist known as X. The shop is located in a quaint side of Brooklyn that surrounded by other professional workspaces. As i visited this location I could clearly see the difference in lost shops and how this one is laid out. It has an open floor plan which relieves the customer of that claustrophobic feeling with plastered walls and loose fitting curtains. It is very clean, well lit from natural light with at least 3 stations for tattooing. I met Luis who is an amazing artist from Venezuela. His work can be found on the web. One of their new artist is mine. She goes by the nickname X- she was working at the Hawaii location and just relocated to Brooklyn. Her work and journey to the tattoo industry is phenomenal! You can read a small window of her background in this link: https://issuu.com/flourishdigitalmagazine/docs/flourish_digital_magazine_-_september_-_october_f/13 Allow her to design your next statement. X has a way of bringing out the details that work with your purpose. For me, this will be my Christmas gift to myself. For you, it may be a part of your higher calling. All of the artist are trained and refined by the legendary and world renown artist Robert Pho- a creative genius who's tattooing is recognized international for his black and grey works (see link): https://www.outlookindia.com/outlook-spotlight/robert-pho-wins-hearts-by-getting-people-inked-with-his-beautiful-art--news-201123/amp I would be surprised if he opened another shop in another part of this galaxy because he is out of this world! All I am saying is this: if you are going to get something on your body that last forever, the artist and platform art Skin Design is where you want to start and end.

Now, I was a walk-in but I had emailed with them several times regarding price and availability. I appreciate that they told me to call before coming in (which I did) because I didn't want to go in vain. Big Mike is super nice, chill and very easy to talk to. I'm a teacher and he's a soon to be art teacher so we bonded over that. Really cool guy and very patient and understanding. Mike took the time to search for fonts that resembled what I wanted and then trying out different sizes, never once rushing the process which I appreciated.

It's basically a hand snapping with little stars and planets around it. The problem is that the hand wasn't done as neatly as I would've liked it to be. The stars were not either, they are VERY simple stars. What left a bad taste in my mouth was after the tattoo was done I'd also realized he left some little but major details out. When I left the shop I observed my tattoo more and more until I realized and had to go back to tell him what he forgot. He apologized and added what was missing. As I started to leave the shop I realized he forgot to bandage me again, so I reminded him. Apologized again. Apologies are great and all but if you are in the profession of putting PERMANENT tattoos on peoples bodies you should be taking this WAY more seriously! Just my opinion! I will not go back. Also, if you are staff and look at a customer come into your shop.. SAY HELLO.
