Andy took us in right away and was amazing! I forget the other artists name that was there but she gave us a lot of recommendations on things to do around the area and restaurants that are a must since we are super foodies. Our experience at Tiger Shark was wonderful! Andy was so friendly and our tattoos look great! The restaurant recommendations were amazing as well and made our trip one to remember!

First, and most important to me when visiting any tattoo shop is to see if it's clean, and Stinky…read moreMonkey is nice and clean. We interacted with Tony, Amanda, and another artist doing a guest spot. They were all pleasant and fun to be around. The shop has a great atmosphere with cool art on the walls by in house artists as well as others. All of the tattoos I've seen come out of that shop are great quality, and I highly recommend checking them out. You always want to do research to ensure the artist you choose fits the style of what you're looking for, but I'm sure they would be more tha helpful in aligning you with the right person. This is a great place to go for high quality custom tattoo work and I highly recommend it if you're in the area or plan to be.

I was out in MA for business for a few weeks and happened to know of Joe Bastek through other…read morefriends and the community. I was super stoked to see that he was tattooing locally right where I was working. I sent Joe and message on IG and told him I was interested in getting my leg sleeve filled in with lots of color and small tattoos. He was super kind, responded and told me to swing by the shop for a consult and some photos of the leg that evening. I was stoked to have him take a second out of his day to meet with me. Consult went great and he was cool as heck which was awesome. My schedule is super hectic and I travel a lot and I'm not a resident so I was worried he would be upset - total opposite. Dude pulled out a planner and started throwing all sorts of times and days out there "Wednesday at 640pm? Saturday at 10am? What works?" I laughed because that's how my schedule literally works we ended up getting a few sessions in and knocked out the rest of my leg! Joe was super hospitable to the MA area, recommend food places and things to see before I split! Thanks Joe for being so cool and kind! I'll be back to get work done!

Anthony is wonderful. I was in Boston from California for…read morea week visiting my best friend. I had a tattoo in mind for the last year. I figured this was a good time to get it done. She told me that she heard good things about Sacred Addition. I gave them a call to see if they would even be able to do it this week. I spoke to Anthony and he asked me to email him a picture of what I wanted. We stopped by later that day to speak with him. He said he would come in Friday (his day off) to do it before I went back home. I came in Friday for my appointment. We got started on the tattoo and it was immediately way too painful for me. 15 minutes in, I told him I probably would only be able to do the outline. He wasn't pissed (like I would expect someone to be if they came in on their day off to do a tattoo) and told me he was almost done with the outline then we could take a break and then start the shading, which was much easier that the outline. I said okay. He was right. The shading was much easier than the outline. There were a few other points during the 2.5 hours that I was ready to give up. Anthony was like a motivational speaker. He encouraged me to finish it, but in a nice way. The owner (didnt catch his name) was drawing something near where I was getting tattooed and also encouraged me to finish it before I went back to California the next day. He said, "you don't want to be walking down Venice Beach with an unfinished tattoo." I told him I live in San Francisco and likely wouldn't be at Venice Beach anytime soon. But his encouragement was still nice. It's been a week since Anthony did my tattoo, and it looks amazing. I'm so so happy with it. Thank you, Anthont!

Whether you're getting your first piercing or a tattoo veteran, this shop is clean, inviting, and…read morethe staff are more than helpful. Even with a line of people waiting for tattoos, each artist helped take in new requests, talked to each guest about their designs, and went over the details. One woman's design was a little too small and they explained how'd they'd have to make it larger for the detail. Again, the artist and apprentice taking the time to work with each person. Andrew, the piercer, was attentive and friendly. I was able to get my nipple pierced and get an extra barbell for my other for a total of $50. Very fair pricing! The shop looked as clean as any other 5 star piercing parlor/tattoo shop I've been too. Everything in the piercing room was sterile, Andrew was careful to use gloves and change them as necessary. His attention to detail in lining up my piercings was spot on! I mean, literally, they are mirrors of each other but pierced at least a decade apart. Seriously, this is probably going to become my go to place for body mods. It's close to home and perfectly priced. Good thing I have tattoos planned!

What really sets Tony apart is how dialed-in he is with the details. He took his time studying the old tattoo and figuring out the best way to transform it, and you could tell he genuinely enjoys the craft. Watching him work, you see how much pride he takes in every line, shade, and idea. The final piece came out way better than I even imagined. You'd never guess it was covering something up.

Entire lobby smelled of cigarette smoke and people were vaping inside the building. I got my tongue pierced, they took me upstairs, where everything is visibly dirty. In the room they set me up in, their was needles on the ground. And as there was a needle in my tongue, a two year old came running through the door. And no one grabbed her, just was like "oh do you want to watch?". My piercing healed fine but overall very unhygienic, uncomfortable, and unsafe. Their was a two year old running in and out of rooms, as their was needles next to my feet on the floor. That's all you really need to know to make a decision. (Don't be stupid, choose a better place;)
