*Tattoo occurred fall 2018*
*Gonna be entirely honest with this review*

I have been here a few times. The first time I got tattooed here, it was by an incredible guest artist named Evan Naylor. To this day, the tattoos my friend and I got by him are consistently admired and complimented.

Unfortunately, the tattoo I received by K is not only my worst tattoo, but it an absolutely abysmal tattoo all around. It has since been removed from both my and the artist's social media. The people in this shop are all very kind, but certain artists are in entirely different leagues from the others.

I now have a very poorly executed tattoo with witg elements that incorrectly overlap. Certain areas were messed up and ineffectively tattooed over in the same session. I'm in the process of trying to get this piece covered, but unfortunately the one thing done correctly was ink placement/saturation, so it'll be anything but easy.

Tragic.

Awesome shop, amazing customer service. My fiancé and I got tattoos there today and we are thrilled with the work. Hey went above and beyond with the customer service too. We had called other shops in the area and they either didn’t respond or were short. Witch City Ink is a great group of people.

I have gotten custom work done by both Natan and K, and highly recommend them both to all my friends and family (and honestly, strangers too) who are looking to get ink. Both are professional, knowledgeable and so very talented. While I haven’t had work done by other artists, I have full confidence in this shop, and know they would only hire wonderful artists.
If you’re looking for some ink, I highly suggest checking out their work online, calling for a consult appointment and working on a piece together! You won’t be sorry!!

I booked an appointment to get a specific piece done a week in advance. When I arrived they told me that they only did flash tattoos on weekends, which the woman on the phone did not inform me of. I decided to get a flash tattoo. The experience was ok... When shaving my arm she was wicked rough and ended up cutting a mole and giving me razor burn. Seemed like she was rushing through the tattooing. However, the tattoo came out great and I liked the result. In general, bad customer service and communication.

Absolutely a joke of a tourist trap. Only flash with limited selection. Bring your business elsewhere.

Fun October flash ink event, walk-in only during the month of October.

OLIVIA P is amazing, she completed exactly what I asked of her, gave great recommendations as far as size and placement and make me feel super comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend her !! Let her tattoo you.

Horrible customer service. Thank Goodness for SALEM INK. My best friend and I visited Salem for 2.5 days. We knew two things while planning our trip...we wanted to see all things Hocus Pocus-related and we wanted Best Friend tattoos while in Salem. We searched online for about a month before our trip and we knew we wanted to visit Salem Ink. My gut kept telling me this was our shop to go to. We did a lot of research and narrowed it down to 2 places...Salem Ink and Witch City Ink. When we got to Witch City Ink, we were barely greeted by two ladies. We explained what we wanted, showed our pictures that we prepared, and they just kind of blankly stared at us. They asked a few clarifying questions and pulled up a schedule. One of them went back to “Lallen” (which we only know by the Business Card) to clarify his schedule. We were told that he could probably get one of us in that day or the next day because his appointment shouldn’t take long as long as he was planning for. She said he would call us to confirm and to let us know. Needless to say, we never got a phone call. Salem Ink is the place to go to if you are looking for a friendly and clean experience from artists who care about their work and customers.

I worked with Natan for just over a year completing a magnificent full back piece. Natan diligently worked this custom piece to match my personality, spirituality, body shape, and strength. Everyone at Witch City is clean and professional. His pricing was well worth the talent, experience and attention I received for such an amazing piece of art. I receive compliments everywhere I go. I should also mention it was a cover of two other poorly done pieces. I never thought a cover would be possible. He is a true magician!

If I could give more stars I would!
