Just had my 6th Tattoo done by Big Mike Gorman and he didn't disappoint. I'm a big fan of Disney Characters and Mike always captures the essence of the character. It's such a chill and awesome atmosphere at Dark Harbor. One bonus is that Mike is extremely well read and we have awesome conversations. Please know that this is how these amazing artists pay their bills. They have supplies and expenses like everyone, so please show your appreciation and tip. Customer For Life!

Nick is an amazing piercer! I could not be happier with my new helix piercing, and I plan on going back to Dark Harbor for any future piercings. Nick is patient and professional and explains everything about the piercing process and aftercare clearly. And the shop is clean and welcoming!

My boyfriend and I each got our first tattoos here today and we both loved the results! Tori was awesome! Everyone there was very friendly and helpful. I believe both of our tattoos were reasonably priced for what we got. Thanks so much again!

Nick did my piercings and they turned out perfect! He was very sterile with the procedure and made me feel comfortable! I’m definitely going to come back, and Steve is an amazing artist who did my first tattoo at Broken Crow Collective, and I’m certain I’ll be going to him when I want something new! Anyways, this place is perfect!!

I would highly recommend Dark Harbor to anyone looking to get a tattoo. Steve has done two different pieces for me and I am incredibly happy with both of them. I had a very specific idea for the first one, and he executed it better than I could have imagined. For the second, I had an idea with few design specifics in mind. Steve designed a great tattoo, and it came out fantastic as well. The shop itself is comfortable and incredibly clean. The artists are very friendly and create a welcoming environment. I will most certainly be back for another tattoo in the near future.

Nick Holes is amazingly awesome. Very polite, kind and accommodating. I will definitely be going back to him for my 2nd helix piercing. I highly recommend him especially to anyone who is getting their first piercing, because he explains everything simply and laid it all out on the table and is very knowledgeable. Hands down the #1 person I will go to!

Kenzie did a quick matching tattoo for me and my sister. She was so good and professional; we love design she did from our inspo and she adjusted it when we asked her too. Very happy and would return!

Blown away by the experience that I had at Dark Harbor. From the moment I walked in, to leaving with my first-ever tattoo, it was such a great time. Lots of laughs, good energy, and such awesome people! The owners, Steve and Jess, are absolutely wonderful, and I now know why this is the BEST SHOP around! There is no question about professionalism, talent or cleanliness. Can't rave enough! I have told everyone I know, and will continue to share about how much I love these guys. The story itself is also something that I'll never forget, and I feel like Steve is now a FRIEND FOR LIFE! Thank you so much! Lucky to have 017.

Got my nose pierced a few weeks ago by Nick. The studio was extremely clean, and they were able to accommodate me as a walk-in very quickly. Nick explained everything in detail, and recommended the best options for my piercing. The entire process was easy and (almost) painless. Would definitely recommend!

Kaylan Scott

My spouse and I both got piercings on the same day. Nick was so professional and calm and I can't speak highly enough of the whole experience. The space was clean, inviting, and closely adhered to COVID protocols. 10/10 recommend and I will definitely be back!
