This is my first Yelp review, but I felt that I had to create an account just so I could recommend…read moreBody Graphics to anyone who is thinking about getting a tattoo. This was my first experience under the gun, and the staff there was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable. The woman at the front desk (I didn't get her name, sadly,) spent a long time talking about placement with me, transferring my design to paper in different sizes and laying them out on my arm to see where they would fit best, how to get the best layout for what I wanted, etc. Because my work was rather simple, I was able to meet with an artist named Lisa immediately and discuss the process further and review some of my options. (Side note - I had already been to another tattoo place in town that morning, and I just hadn't liked the vibe of the place. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with the other shop, as they've got a great reputation. It just wasn't a good fit for for me, and I wanted to make sure I was in good hands for a major step like this one.) Lisa was available to do the tattoo right then, and the entire appointment took just under an hour. I am terrified of needles, so I had anticipated having someone sit on my chest to get me through the ordeal. Not only didn't it hurt, it wasn't even vaguely uncomfortable; I was actually disappointed when the whole thing was over. I'm sure a large part of this was due in fact to Lisa's skill with the gun as well as her ability to keep me talking while the tattoo was being done. I'm an English teacher, and we probably spent 90% of our time together talking about short stories that we love. In all, I could not have had a better experience. Whether you're an experienced veteran of the tattooing process or someone who is thinking about getting their first, Body Graphics is the place to be.

He prefers not to talk which is okay in my book because I don't like talking while I am getting inked. He puts on a movie as a distraction which is also very helpful for me to forget the pain that I have endure for a trypanophobic like myself. Plus, the guy was very supportive when I had the urge of passing out at one point. I honesty think it was really worth the almost $500 for the ink job he done. I've even tipped him for just being simply the best. Will be coming back for more!

Dani is a joy in person, had a beautiful design ready to go, and earned my Spawn's trust immediately. Spawn is an artist as well, so I trust their judgement in that field. The atmosphere was wonderful, the shop is immaculate, the pricing MORE than fair, and the quality of the experience was TOP NOTCH.

This is my first tattoo. I have waited 5 years to have it done. Last month I read about Brittany…read moreand her Tattoo Salon in the Hartford Courant and decided it was time to move ahead. I was impressed by the content of the article and decided to reach out and ask her opinion about the design I wanted to have done. She responded in very short order indicating she would be happy to help me. I live an hour away but really felt good vibes and proceeded to make the appointment. I just returned home and am so happy I made the choice to have Brittany help me with my tattoo. Her work space is inviting and warm but more importantly spotless. Her attention to detail is very evident and it is obvious she is diligent in maintaining a clean and sterile setting. I was a little nervous going in but would gladly return to Pins&Needles if I decide to get a 2nd.
