Super rad folks work there. Great service, great tattoos at absolutely reasonable prices. Never a bad day when I get to stop by. Have gotten two tattoos there and in both cases the artists worked with me to get my pieces where they should be and their expertise meant all of the difference. Scheduling appointments is easy (walk-ins seem easy too, just haven't tried it). Thanks for everything!

Amazing place. They do walk ins & make sure everyone gets helped no matter what. It’s located in a perfect spot and walking distance to all the good eats

I am very dissatisfied with the service. I put down and advance on my tattoo to secure my time slot and still winded up waiting an additional hour and a half. For the small tattoos I got, I was heavily overpriced; I was in and out in less than 15 minutes!! (I only paid b/c I the day of was my only opportunity)Never coming back and I advise anyone else to look elsewhere.

I had a great experience at Paradise tattoo in Washington DC. I just turned 70 and being an long time dead head I thought it was time for a tattoo. I picked the simple “steal your face” line drawing with Built To Last underneath of it. Billy was the artist he did an excellent job it was quick and the image he drew was very high-quality. I thought everybody at paradise was welcoming and friendly. A great place for a first tattoo

On vacation and decided it was time for a tattoo to celebrate my new start and my son. My best friend and I were able to walk in on a Saturday. Billy was my artist and he was fantastic. I’m not a fan of needles (who is?) and he put my nerves to ease and made me feel so comfortable. The studio was clean and the front desk attendant was extremely friendly and accommodating. This is my second tattoo and a wonderful experience from start to finish.

The guy at the front desk was not friendly and the tattoo artist I got was not any better. He got frustrated with me for being nervous about my first tattoo. Zero patience. The tattoo itself is nice but I was charged $20 more than minimum tattoo price for a heart outline smaller than a dime. Never going back again.

A good studio, manages to straddle that difficult line of preserving an internal culture and identity without being off-putting to the general public. Smooth front desk operations and excellent communication. Very fair pricing, though your mileage may differ by artist.
Would recommend for first timers or more experienced.

This place was absolutely wonderful. I got a piercing done by Carl, and she was phenomenal! She didn’t pressure me whilst being apprehensive and was very patient with my decision making process. She’s very knowledgeable and when she said “I’m quick” she meant it. I recommend her to anyone looking to add a piercing to their temple. I will be back soon with my sister for more! Thanks Carl! ❤️

Reviewing based on my experiences (two) for piercings! About two years ago I got my septum pierced by a really lovely lady, unfortunately whose name I don't remember. Then the service was fantastic, everyone was nice, and my piercer made me feel very comfortable! She explained everything that was going to happen before and was really encouraging. She was so great I didn't feel a thing!
My second time visiting I got a vertical labret piercing done by Brian. He was honest from the get go about his professional opinion regarding healing, chance of rejection (Apparently these piercings do have a higher possibility of rejection which is understandable), and overall information regarding the piercing itself; which I really really respect. Once I decided to just go for it, he was AMAZING. Completely explained everything that would happen, took his time making up my lip, making sure the line was straight, that I was happy with it, etc. Of course since it's a lip piercing through the soft tissue it did hurt a little, but definitely not a negative experience in any way! After the piercing was done we waited a bit to see how much it would swell, and even changed the bar to a shorter one.
Price is VERY fair for piercings, everywhere else is either more expensive or completely not even worth going to! If you're looking for a great experience and a great piercing totally go and ask for Brian!

Highly recommended and affordable! Got a tongue piercing from Erica (I hope I’m spelling it correctly). They were friendly and welcoming from the get. The piercing is exactly where I want it and was quick and easy. I’m not a novice to piercing but I almost passed out after this time; she came out and did whatever she could to make me more comfortable. I appreciated everything.
