Christine completed my back piece/cover up. All staff were always friendly and professional. The shop is clean. I'm in love with my back piece still years later. I love that she left my kalinga tattoo I got in the Philippines and incorporated it as part of the elephant face paint. I will go to Christine for any future tattoo in the future.

So I did a thing...finally got my nose pierced!! I already have a helix piercing and a tragus piercing, but the nose was hard for me to push the green light on because I was worried about irritating the piercing with make up, blowing my nose, sweat from yoga, etc Nico put my mind at ease and answered all my questions & concerns. He guided me every step of the way...even with the size of the jewel and location of the piercing. It barely hurt for a bit, but totally worth it!! I love it!

A friend wanted to celebrate her birthday with new piercings. I googled tattoo shops in the area and Urban Art had the most and best reviews...and they were not wrong! Very happy we came! My friend is a very particular about cleanliness. She was very satisfied with the shop, and how they clean their items before piercing. The head piercer, Nico, was skilled and very patient with her she is terrified of needles). Nico was very kind and allowed her to take breaks as she needed. While she only ended up stretching 3 closed piercings and didn't end up getting new piercings as she intended, she for sure plans to go back because of how gentle Nico was. I went as a support to my friend, but ended up getting three new pieces of jewelry for my various ear piercings and Nico installed them for me without any issues. I would 100% recommend the shop and we definitely plan to be back!

Love this place very clean and nice inside Brooklyn was a Doll. Went with 2,0f my friends and Uncle was the one who did our Tattoos He was awesome helping me create a tattoo with my moms that passed away handwriting we loved our Tattoos can't wait to go back to get more. If o could I would give this place 10 stars

First, the young lady at front desk was very polite and personable. Also, I've gotten two tattoos here myself. My husband and sister-in-law got one together too. MY husband is getting another tattoo today!! Rob is our go-to guy. He is very polite. He is good with customer service. And most importantly Rob does an excellent job with his tattoo art work!! Oh and I also got my tongue pierced here 5 yrs ago by Johnny. Very pleased

Great experience. I emailed earlier this week about getting some lettering done on the side of my neck. Brooklyn reached out to me right away about getting me connected with an artist and scheduled. Came in today to work with Unkl Rob. Gave him my idea, he drew up a few designs for me to choose from. I picked one and we got to work a short while later. I love the piece and already referred a few friends. I'll definitely be back.

I had a great experience here! Tattoo was 120 before tip and it came out great. I had them make a stencil from my faincee's handwritten name on a note card to surprise her and they totally nailed it. When I showed her she immediately recognized her handwriting. My artist name sounded like Mouse but idk how it's spelled. He was blasting punk rock and there were lots of pictures and horror toys hanging up to look at which was fun to look at while the work was getting done. I'd definitely return for future work.

Rhonda T.

I had a really great experience at Urban Art. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. MAUS was my artist, I was a walk in, he was very attentive to the design I was looking for and very much exceeded my expectations. I am so happy with my new ink and I definitely would return to see MAUS if I wanted more ink. Thank you, MAUS, I absolutely love it

The professionalism at this shop was extremely disappointing. Personal drama seemed to spill into customer interactions, communication was immature, and overall the experience left a bad impression. I won't be returning. I'm done with the drama and disrespect. I expected honesty and maturity, and I didn't get either. I'm moving on. I'm having someone else finish this tattoo. Worst experience ever. read more

I'm blown away with this shop. About a year ago I had received a really bad belly button piercing (not from them), it was crooked and extremely shallow which resulted in it ripping and having to heal. I walked in and was immediately greeted. I explained my situation and nico was more than willing to help. He was extremely professional, extremely kind, and made me feel beautiful again. Instead of having an ugly scar reminding me of a horrible past piercing, I now have a beautiful new piercing which is NOT crooked and NOT shallow! Highly recommend. Thank you again! read more

We just went Urban Art to get my six year old niece's ears pierced for her birthday. Karla was beyond amazing. You do need to bring a birth certificate to verify you are able to give permission and Karla verifies with the child that they want their ears pierced. Once that's completed she walks you through the whole process and is incredibly thorough, kind, and talented. The entire staff was warm and accommodating. If you're looking to get a child's ears pierced this is the place to go. Unlike Claire's the process is sanitary, less painful, and the staff are professionals in their field. Thank you again, could not have asked for a better experience. read more

Based on customer service alone for the piercer: i was a little pushy with getting my nose pierced with a hoop, but he insisted on a stud and showed me some really pretty ones. Unfortunately it was super packed and my baby sister was complaining about xyz and i had no earplugs to deal with her. However i am appreciative of the niceness and Chaz (i believe thats his name) being patient with me as i went on a tangent about a hoop and i will take his advice and get a stud. Unfortunately Mesa is so far out from my families place and im on holiday. So my stud will have to wait. Sorry i left without notice and thank you for being patient with my pushiness. read more

Since my first experience at Urban Art, I have definitely turned into a loyal customer, getting my next three tattoos (yes, I've had three more since the first one!) at this same location. However, for the last two, I've gone to Neil. (I think Justin was booked the first time around and I decided to try someone else at the shop. The second time around, I chose to work with Neil and my husband actually got his first tattoo from Justin.) I am definitely more than happy with Neil's work. He and Justin are friends with some common artistic leanings but distinct styles at the same time, so it's cool to have tattoos from both of them. I definitely appreciated both of their willingness to talk through my tattoo ideas and make recommendations inspired by but elevating my vision. On another positive note, Neil is a really fun and interesting person, which makes the tattooing go by relatively quickly. (Yes, it still hurts, but with the right breathing and good conversation, it's survivable!). With my last tattoo (a back piece that took around 12 hours in multiple sessions), that personality was definitely a huge plus! If you are looking for a great tattoo from a professional yet outgoing artist, I highly recommend Neil! read more

I've never been a big tattoo girl, so I began my tat journey with a small butterfly from another studio. My Urban Art Artist is Christine, once I explained what I thought I wanted, she recommended a cover up, a redo and I went for it! She came highly recommend by a few friends, so I knew she was the right one to transform my tattoo into something super special. I've been back a few times and each visit she produces something better than I ever imagined. Every ounce of this tattoo has significant meaning to me and Christine has done a beautiful job designing, creating, expanding, and executing my vision into a gorgeous "piece" that I absolutely LOVE. I guess I have become a big tattoo girl. Christine is an AMAZINGLY talented artist and I'm so thankful for her gift. read more

I had the honor of receiving Rod's artistic gifts a few weeks ago. I was referred to him thru a mutual friend. My family had a recent tragedy and i needed to memorialize the lost loved one in ink. I set a consult appt online then met with Rod. He listened to my story, collaborated with my ideas, and gave advice on my piece. I even scored a heartfelt hug (I was in tears); which cemented my faith in him. The session was set out a bit (he is much in-demand, obviously because he is quite awesome) and I could not have had a better turnout! He educated me on tattooing over my scars, and gave proper expectations so I knew what to look out for. I absolutely love what he did from the strong lines, to the wispy lines... shading and clarity- all was beautifully done -better than my mind could imagine. Like I told him at the end of my session- Rod is my tattoo artist for life. Oh, and Lori was super cool to deal with in the front office; great follow up email w/instructions.

I opened Urban Art that April 20th and it's now been over 30 years! I've been tattooing for over 33 years. It's the second love of my life and a career that fulfills my artistic needs as well as allows me to meet amazing, diverse people every day.

I paid a $60 booking fee a week in advance, and was told it covered the artist's drawing time and the appointment slot. Yet when I arrived early for my 3:00 PM appointment, nothing was prepared. After about 20 minutes, the artist showed me a design that wasn't even close to what I had provided, so he had to start over while I waited even longer. After an hour of waiting -- including watching the artist step outside for a smoke break -- I left without getting tattooed. I then learned the booking fee was nonrefundable, despite the fact that the delay and lack of preparation were entirely on their end. If the fee is supposed to cover the design work, the design should be ready before the client arrives -- not started after check-in. What should have been an exciting first tattoo experience was instead frustrating and disappointing. I reached out to the owner, hoping for understanding. Instead, I received no apology, no responsibility -- just the implication that I was being unreasonable for expecting my time to be respected. Extremely disappointed. I won't be returning, and I hope others know what they're signing up for before booking here.

Body piercings are a diverse and ancient practice, with origins dating back thousands of years in…read morevarious cultures. Ear piercings are among the oldest, with evidence found on mummified remains. While they are often seen as a form of self-expression, they have also served various purposes throughout history, including ritualistic, cultural, and even symbolic roles. I came here on May 17th to get a hidden helix piercing to match my lil sis on the OCA team, Wendi K. (Go add her! She's Seattle's sweetheart). That and I've been seeing them on Instagram and they look cool. Megan was my piercer and everything went well. I chose a fun dangly 14k gold piece for my piercing as I know from a previous cartilage piercing that I need a more hypoallergenic metal. And while my ear anatomy doesn't quite make the piercing fully hidden, I'm happy with it. I'm glad to have had the consultation with Megan prior so I knew what I was getting myself into. Do yourself a favor and get pierced by Megan (walk-ins are allowed for piercings). Buy some saline solution here, tip generously, and walk away being a more decorated and shiny version of yourself.

Do NOT go to this shop not only are the artist Dicks but the guy who did mine Rob, was especially rude, racist, and he did not clean his machine after he used it on a previous customer. Not just that but he cracked jokes about making my tattoo hurt me on purpose. Now I'm sitting here in pain with an infected tattoo which is shitty by the way the detail wasn't done right the shading is fading... Did I mention I just got this tattoo yesterday? I haven't even had it footer 24 hours yet. not only that they over charge by 50% all they care about is the money their not artist at all!! And they don't know Shit about customer service. After we did some research we found this GREAT shop in Phoenix. The art work was extravagant!! The people were amazing and get this they close at 6 on a Sunday but some of the artist will stay until midnight to get your tattoo done. They had so much more choices for tattoos than urban art ever dreamed of!! the artist are amazing and they aren't in it for the money they're in it footer the art!! Not only that they'll do a much better then urban art for half the price and 4x better in quality. I'm going to them so they can fix my tattoo that Rob fucked up on. If you're gonna go anywhere go to artistic tattoo 664 W.camelback Rd. Phoenix,AZ 85013 the costumer service alone is worth going to.and free touch ups too...and ladies they also do permanent make up and eye brows It looks spectacular and real!! They have a website www.artistictattooaz.com if you wanna stay healthy go to Artistic Tattoo on 7th ave. And camelback Rd URBAN ART TATTOO WILL GET YOU SICK THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!! All the bad reviews are TRUE!!! read more

I went here over the summer to get my first tattoo. I was extremely excited and I thought this would be the best place to go after reading all the reviews. I went in to the shop to make an appointment for my tattoo and the manager, Samantha, was very nice and set me up with an artist and gave me a quote for the tattoo. When I went in for my appointment a couple of weeks later everyone still seemed rather friendly except for my tattoo artist. I believe his name was Jaimie however I am not sure because he was such a rude person that I did not want to bother with his name as I had no intention of ever getting a tattoo from him again. He felt the need to make fun of the quote that I was getting on my back, a quote that happens to mean a lot to me. Honestly, the first couple of jokes were funny but after a while it just got old and rude. After the tattoo was finished and he was explaining the aftercare to me, he talked to me like I was an idiot which annoyed me since this was my first tattoo and I had no idea what to do. About a month ago my friend went to a different tattoo shop in AZ and I saw how tattoo artists should act around their customers and I was even more angry at the experience I had at Urban Art Tattoo which prompted me to write this review. I will never recommend this shop to anyone nor will I ever return here. read more

If you want an AMAZING tattoo go see Nicole at Urban Art III in Tempe. I went to Nicole after being impressed with her work on the website. I went in there with a half-finished train-wreck of a side piece, (blown-out lines you name it) it was pretty bad/embarrassing. She did an amazing job, tattoo is more than I could have ever imagined, she shaded and put almost like a watercolor spin on it...it looks airbrushed and awesome. She did the whole tattoo is just over 2 & 1/2 hours, and that's including going over the original artist's mess. This gal "gets it done", non of that taking smoke breaks every 5 minutes stuff. Believe me I didn't experience that "pretentiousness" you'll find with some artists in other shops, her work speaks for itself. And last but not least Nicole has the "lightest hand" ever. When she says; "I'm light-handed" take her at her word. It was the best tattoo experience I've ever had, and I have 4 other tattoos. I'll definitely be going back to see her again for another piece. You can see the tattoo in my pictures!!! read more

I just read the review by Winona and wanted to make a statement. Any tattoo shop, that is not professional and just wants to take your money- will tattoo anything you want on you. Whether or not it's a bad idea. I've been going to Urban Art for years and what I DO know is that they will NEVER tattoo something that you will one day regret. They were trying to save you from yourself. Yes, he may have had tattoos on HIS hand but HE is a tattoo artist! He's not out in the world trying to get a job and being judged for his appearance. The competing shop is a newly opened shop that will take your money and not care. It takes $200 to open a tattoo shop, don't think that just because there's a store front that those guys are professional and well trained. I saw the picture of your tattoo and trust me! You should've paid the professionals what they wanted. Hopefully they can fix what they've done when it heals. I wish you the best but please do your homework when getting something on your body, for life! read more

The employees at Urban Art are hilarious and so personable! On my 17th birthday I decided I wanted an industrial bar in my ear! I was as extremely nervous because I am terrified of needles but the second I walked in I felt soo comfortable and calmed down! Jess was my piercer and she is completely amazing and bad ass! I just recently went back to her at the Tempe Urban Art to get my tragus pierced and I am in love with it! She has an amazing sense of humor and if you don't like her something is obviously wrong with you! On my 18th birthday I got my first tattoo by Justin Hartman! I once again was nervous as could be but him and Sam made me laugh and feel comfortable! He is funny as shit too and did an amazing job on my tattoo!! I would recommend anyone who wants tattoos or piercings to go the Urban Art any day! Most people think they are expensive buttt good tattoos are not cheap and cheap tattoos are not good!! :) read more

Justin created an awesome custom piece for me,I had an idea,and he did the rest,beautiful,and very unique. The shop is extremely clean,and each artist has their own private room,which is cool. I see tattoos all the time,and now I think to myself"wow that really looks like s****" compared to mine.. People stop and ask me at least once a week where I got my tat and how awesome it is.I have since moved to Ca,but I still tell everyone where I went. If I ever get another one,I will drive the 7 hours to see Justin again,he is that good. read more

Urban Art 1 & 2 collectively have some of the best artists on the West Coast. Whether your taste is black and gray, color, traditional Japanese, Americana, it doesn't matter. There is someone who can make your dream come true inside your skin. Trevor, the resident piercer can make the craziest idea come to life, and if he doesn't have the jewelry in stock that you want, he has a myriad of companies to order some of the most amazing body jewelry you can imagine through. read more

Please read this thread on FB before using this shop. Harrassed a customer who left a bad review and wouldnt remove it. Offered her a free tattoo but she didnt want it, then turned to his followers to "harrass her until she deleted her account".
