Witch City Ink

Met with bre for a design from their flash sheets. she is an amazing artist and extremely friendly. Andrew was warm, welcoming and answered all questions I had about the shop

Didn’t get a chance to make an appointment because the front clerk was so incredibly rude. Not a bad wait or price but the service is lacking. Asked if there was a waiting list I could put my name on and his was response was “that’s how a waiting list works.” Looked at tattoos a bit and walked out because how could I let someone tattoo me after belittling me? Terrible customer service.

Olivia did my tattoo! It was a great experience. The placement was in a sensitive area and she really helped me stay calm and just get through it! I would definitely recommend this shop. While I was waiting other people coming out of the shop seemed happy about their tattoos as well! Very clean and organized!

We are absolutely thrilled with our tattoos! The staff was professional, friendly, and clean. Our pin up ghosts are perfect thank you so much.

My friend and I came to Salem for the weekend and she decided to spontaneously have us get tattoos while on our trip. This would be my first so I was very anxious. They have a flash book only sessions during the month of October and no appointment policy. So first come first serve but they have a call list they go through in order. We tried getting them on a Saturday but they ended not being able to take us that night but honored our time waiting and put us in the very next day in the morning. The front desk girl (I forget her name but has green hair) was so kind and made the process very easy. My tattoo artist was Bre and she did such an amazing job with my tattoo! She eased my nerves going into it answering any questions I had. She also restenciled my tattoo 3 times making sure it was the correct size and placement I wanted. I even added on an extra item to my tattoo and she only charged me $15 more than the asking price of $150. The shop and staff were overall very professional, clean and friendly. If my friend and I are feeling spontaneous in Salem again we’ll be sure to pay Witch City Ink a visit!

I emailed them over a month in advance to book am appointment. They emailed back saying they were booked but would take me as a walk in. I show up and the woman asked what I wanted, was very rude about it, and after talking to the artists informs me that they won't do it because I wanted it behind my war. She tells me there are no artists here who do that placement. She didn't even ask if I wanted it somewhere else. They're very rude and act like you're not worth their time. She could have been nice. When I asked if it would be better to come another day she said, no, no artist will do that. They act like they don't need your money. Definitely try another place with customer service skills. It's obviously just a money grab for them because of their location.

Disappointing experience. We were first in line at 12pm for walk in and they are first come first serve. The receptionist was kind of rude. I was going to get a small witch hat and my wife a small ghost. I did research beforehand about possible flash options and price. No info was posted on the website about the walk in policy. What would have been a MAYBE 10 minute tattoo each was going to cost us $150 per person minimum. Total tourist trap and outrageous price. No where on the website does it say that you have to pick from the flash book for walk in, which isn’t a problem but that really should be on the website so you can prepare beforehand. We didn’t end up being tattooed because the whole vibe felt off to me, it was overpriced and someone that was behind me got to go first. That’s not really first come first served. All in all disappointing experience.

bre did my very first tattoo and she was amazing! she talked me through the entire process and ensured i was okay and comfortable the whole time! i really couldn’t have asked for a better first tattoo experience. thank you so much to bre and the rest of the staff for an awesome experience 🖤🤘🏻

Wonderful experience getting a walk in tattoo with Natan. He was so kind and professional. I will absolutely be back on our next trip.

Both artists I've worked with here were great at what they do....and they've left to work elsewhere. My consults were done entirely by email. At the time, they were down a shop manager, so maybe the communication and organization of booking has improved since then.

Honestly, I think this place is kinda hyped based on its location and TV publicity. It's a good shop, and they take as much work as they can.

I think the prices are a bit on the high side. Probably because of aforementioned hype.

Parking is always a beast unless, like me, you've given up on street parking in Salem and just use the mall garage when it's not at capacity.
