Paradise Tattoo Inc

Rick (Rik?) was great- we wanted a more detailed image but given placement & size he consulted with us until we found a good compromise on detail and image clarity that would hold up over time. Nice homage to our ‘63 Beetle. Friendly people. Clean. Even in COVID we felt safe. Highly recommended!

Really easy to make an appointment. The people at the front were great helped me out with what we needed. Artist wasn’t the nicest when I asked to get the location of the tattoo adjusted. I just wanted to be sure lol cause it’s gonna be there forever. Maybe he was having a bad day. I got something super small so i was expecting something closer to the shop minimum but it turned out it was way more than I thought it would be. I’m not that upset though cause it was good work and i’m pretty happy with it i just wish it was a little cheaper.

After having a couple tattoos at this shop I decided to try them out for some dermal piercings. My tattoo experience at the shop was average, on par for any tattoo shop. Clean, safe, fairly good work, maybe a tad overpriced but it is Key West. However, I decided to get dermal piercings and this was one of the only shops to offer that service. My experience with their piercer (and her son/apprentice) was fantastic. They were able to accommodate me same day, and although at first I had only anticipated two piercings, were easily able to do four, which is what I really wanted. They talked me through the entire process, were careful and very cognizant of hygiene practices. After the first couple dermals by the primary piercer, they asked if the apprentice could try one, which I was more than happy to oblige. An offer of a free tee shirt and I was off! Never would have guessed the apprentice had never done a live dermal piercing-still outstanding patient care, efficient, and clean work. For tattoos, 3/5. For piercings, 5/5 and will be returning when it’s time for more

On a recent stroll down Duval, my husband and I stopped in to look at the merch area and next thing we know, we were walking out with fresh tattoos. Everyone was so nice. Our tattoos look great and are healing awesome. We will getting tattoos to memorialize our travels and this was a great place to start the journey.

These wonderful people saved my ear! I went to another parlor And got a really bad double helix. At the other parlor: While a needle was used they used piercing jewelry for lobes. I immediately went to Paradise to get a new set put in. They were incredibly kind, patient and saved my ears. Once the old jewelry was taken out, I bled like crazy. It was so bad but the wonderful piercer got the new jewelry in, made me feel amazing and confident in my decision To use them to save my ear. Can’t thank you all enough! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

We had a group of 5 of us all getting the same thing. Super simple moped outline and I added a shark and volleyball. I provided the exact clip art so there was no drawing. No shading. Turtle did our tattoos and was rude the whole time. I asked to make the shark bigger and he said it would take a visit to the cash register. Then didnt want to move the position of the volleyball that was overlapping the shark. All in all I was in the chair for maybe 15 minutes. $250. All my friends that got mopeds (maybe 5 minutes in the chair) $150. All 5 of us got done in under 2 hours including his set up and printing off stencils and it cost about $1100. Do not go here. Their rates are insane. I have a full sleeve on one arm, and tons of other work done so this isn't my first rodeo. I think turtle is the only artist.

Wanted to make my first a memorable experience. Research Key West shops and decided on Paradise. What a great choice during FF 2017!! Friendly staff and artists. Steve M was helpful in the final details. His steady hand and laid back personality made the experience the best.
Thank you again Steve. #sMartin

Went here on a port call and was in the mood to get a tattoo, I got a hourglass on fire, and it looks amazing! Great work and cool artist. My only complaint is that I didn’t realize I over paid till I went to other shops and realized I could saved easily over 200 dollars. Other than good shop just expect heavy prices

Overpriced tourist trap. Was mad when our group didn't tip. We didn't tip because they were not willing to work with you that much. Was not going to tip when they charged us 150 for a tattoo anywhere else that would cost like 75.

Edit: Response from owner proves my point, if the minimum is 100 it should have been 100 not 150. Make sure to give the extra 50 as a tip to turtle for me.

Got small matching tattoos with my mom and they did not TAKE AT ALL. I understand it was on the hand, but I do tattoos myself and it was not done right at all. Started to fade right away!!! And my moms isn’t even there anymore. Also, the customer service was terrible. The desk guy is the only nice person that worked there. Everyone else was rude. They’re very overpriced too.
