Let me start by saying the first 3 seconds of being in Twin Tides, I knew i was in the right place! Shish is cool, professional and friendly. FRIENDLY is the key word because that's something hard to find in tattoo shops/artists nowadays. Ive had tattoos done in other shops but since my first time at twin tides,I haven't gone anywhere else for a tattoo. I haven't worked with any of the artists other than Shish yet. He does a great job at making my visions into art I'm proud to permanently display to the world. Twin tides has quality work and quality people. I highly recommend coming here. the only reason I would dare NOT Recommend it would be because I'd want more time slots for myself! lol. read more

Twin Tides is an absolute gem of a tattoo shop in the Hudson Valley. The shop is beautiful, clean and incredibly welcoming to everyone who walks in. I have been getting tattooed by Mike for a little over a year now, and I am always blown away by his artistic choices. He will take your ideas and make them so much better. He is also a genuine person who makes the time go by quickly with great conversation and laughs. While I haven't had the chance to work with Tommy or Emmett yet, I can say that their work is also top tier, and they contribute to the all around good vibes of the shop. I always look forward to visiting and cannot recommend Twin Tides enough! read more

There are a lot of places you can go to get great tattoos. But there aren't a lot of places to get great tattoos where you're treated like family. Shish, Tommy, & Emmett will put world class art on your body, and they'll make you laugh and feel completely at home while they're doing it. I've been getting tattooed by Shish for six years and I feel like I've know the dude my whole life. The truth is, you can spend your money anywhere and get good ink. I will always spend mine where I feel like I'm valued and appreciated, and Twin Tides has made me feel that way 100% of the time. Go to Twin Tides, make an appointment, and see for yourself. read more

There are not enough GOOD things I can say about this place & the artists within. I have had multiple pieces done by Shish - as have all of my friends I have sent to him, and we have always walked out of the shop with a better image than what we had imagined. If you're walking in as a new or returning customer you are ALWAYS welcomed with a smile and a greeting as if everyone there has known you for years (makes it A LOT less intimidating!). The guys are extremely talented (and funny!) & will go out of their way to make sure you not only love your tattoo - but your experience at the shop. I can't recommend Twin Tides more! read more

Mike, Tommy, and the Twin Tides family are true professionals and artists in the tattoo industry. Their shop is beautiful, clean, and inviting. Their art is personal, unique, and detailed. Between the permanent artists and the guest spots they often host Twin Tides covers a lot of different styles including American Traditional, Neo Traditional, Japanese, and South Asian tattoos (Mike is the only artist I would trust with my Sri Lankan raksha mask tattoos). I've been tattooed by both Mike & Tommy and I've since considered Twin Tides to be my go-to shop. I came for the art, stayed for the people. read more

I have been getting my tattoos done by Mike since 2016. I randomly chose him for a walk-in tattoo and I've been a dedicated customer ever since.. and even now I drive 4 hours just to be tattooed by him!! Mike is extremely talented, professional, and overall a great person. He always makes me feel right at home when I visit the shop. Tattoos can be stressful but he always makes the experience very comfortable and listens to all my concerns ( if any). The shop it's self is beautiful and very clean. I would 100% recommend Twin Tides for your next tattoo, you are in for a 5 star experience!! read more

TwinTides Tattoo is hands down my choice for getting some awesome & one of a kind tattoo done while in the Hudson Valley.This place has a great atmosphere and the hospitality is top of the line. I had gotten tattooed by the owner Mike Shishmania himself, I gave him an idea of what I had wanted and he made it into something I never thought of, his talent & skills speaks for itself. I was super happy with my piece and will be going back for more. I highly recommend you stop in and see for yourself how great this shop is. Thank you Mike for the badass tattoo I am grateful for your talents! read more

Where do I even start, I have been getting tattooed by the owner Shish for over 3 years. It has been nothing less than amazing. The quality and customer service I've received from him has been top-notch. You get what you pay for and the work he has done has been worth every dime. The whole crew at the shop is awesome as well. I was just there 2 weeks ago and during the 4 hour session I couldn't stop laughing which made whole experience pleasurable. Nothing but good vibes with some amazing people. Stop by and make an appointment cause this guy's are always busy. read more

I've been going to Shish for tattoos for years, and he absolutely never disappoints. Interactive, professional, kind, and hilarious -- it's always a treat to get work done by him, or even just to pop in and say hi! The Twin Tides Tattoo shop is very clean and obviously cared-for. It's very welcoming with a team of badass artists, a super comfy cozy setup, and it has a chill vibe. Great way to get comfortable before a session, and the team really makes you feel welcome. I always recommend my homies to Shish and Twin Tides! read more

Mike (shish) has an amazing talent to take a concept that you have in your head and turn it into a beautiful piece of artwork. I had a general idea of what I wanted. I told Mike the different elements I wanted it to include and he brought it to life! He and everyone at the shop are super friendly and make you feel like family. I already have my next appointments set up to continue my leg sleeve. I highly recommend anyone in the market for a tattoo to visit Twin Tides. You will not be disappointed. read more

Shish has been my tattoo artist for a little over 10 years now. Ive been waiting to write a review of his new shop until my latest tattoo that I got there was fully complete and healed. The shop is extremely welcoming and clean. The vibe is super chill and the other artists are fantastic as well. Scheduling was easy and smooth. Since I got a larger leg piece they scheduled me for 3 appointments spaced out appropriately. Shish and his team come highly recommended. They will not disappoint. read more

I can't say enough positive things about this place. The shop is super clean, the artists are super welcoming and knowledgeable, and the work is outstanding! The atmosphere is amazing, like you're hanging out with friends, but the artists are all super professional as well. Mike has been my artist for years, and I couldn't imagine going anywhere else in the area. He has always blown me away with his ability to take my (sometimes wild) ideas and turn them into a reality. read more

I recently got tattooed by Shish and couldn't be happier with my results. From the initial consultation to post-tattoo care, he took the time to listen to what i wanted and collaborated with me to make an amazing piece of art. His professionalism, attention to detail, and easy going attitude made my tattoo experience enjoyable from beginning to end. I also really like that he contacted me to follow up on my healing process. Will 100% be back read more

Shish is a tattoo genius. The shop is beautifully clean and decorated. The staff is helpful and kind. The toilet had a heated seat and bidet. I have yet to see a bad tattoo from them or hear a complaint. Look at this tattoo Shish is doing for me! It's not done yet but I know it's going to be incredible. Go to Twin Tides but book ahead of time because they are very busy, and for good reason! read more
