CryBaby Tattoo

Absolutely outstanding. I've gotten 2 decently-sized tattoos from Sam over the last year (April & November) and she's absolutely amazing. In fact, I love everyone in the shop! Shout-outs to MarCella and Matt for enhancing the experience. <3 I love MarCella's stories and friendly banter, it honestly helps so much to distract from the physical pain when everyone is chatting and having fun.

I chose Sam as my artist because I found her portfolio on Google and I instantly knew she's the one; the quality of her work is consistent and deserving of every accolade. I would probably be here every 2-3 months if she had more availability, I cannot overstate how much I love this place. It's clear that they care about their clients and want us to feel as comfortable and content as possible.

I see a few negative reviews about how CryBaby Tattoo handles deposits and I don't understand why. MarCella was extremely clear on the phone and reiterated multiple times how the policy works, so I had a very fair experience. I understand tattoos can be expensive, but you get what you pay for so you should discuss your expectations with the shop before you commit to an appointment.

I got my very first tattoo with matt when I was 18. Matt, I don’t know if you remember but it was a tribute to my friend and I remember you had mentioned that I was one of your first clients because you were apprenticing at that time! I love seeing how far you have come with your Instagram posts! I have been flaky on my last tattoo appointment but Sam was so accommodating and knew I was a college student and didn’t have a car. She was so sweet and I absolutely loved her. I came back again and did a dragon tattoo on my left arm! I recommended Matt to my friend after i had gotten my tattoo. It was a wonderful experience and they are so accommodating and professional!

Hello!

Sitting in the shop after getting my second tattoo with Matt. First, Matt is very talented and professional. He will take a tattoo you like and make it a tattoo that you love. The receptionist, MarCella, very Brooklyn, in accent and mannerisms. She is so sweet and passionate and down the earth. The whole environment makes me feel welcomed and safe and for a person with anxiety and autism that is priceless and very hard to do LoL

Went to get matching tattoos with my little brother. It was my brother's first tattoo and Matt was SO friendly and patient and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. Not only is he super nice and personable, Matt is a great artist and did the fine line work on our tattoos perfectly. Scheduling was also easy and the studio is very clean.

Crybaby has been my home for a while now. Sam has tattooed almost my entire portfolio of tattoos. I could not be happier with my experience in this shop. I always feel welcomed and like I am treated kindly. When I have to call the studio, MarCella, the receptionist is always efficient and sweet as can be. Highly highly highly recommend this studio.

I had the artist Matt do my tattoo today and I absolutely love it!! He pays very close attention to the details. My sunflower is gorgeous along with the rest of my tattoo of course!🌻 Thanks again Matt for another awesome tattoo! Another pleasant experience at your studio!

Matt's done all of my tattoos so far and I'll be going to him in the future. I just love how i can go in for all the pokemon tattoos i need

Edit: I had to edit this review bc just avoid the drama and DO NOT GO HERE the owner is rude and unprofessional as you can see from her response to my original review below, as well as her response to every other negative review left for this business. They don't tell you they charge by the hour unless you ask, and when you ask they have an attitude, and they didn't inform me i would have to pay extra for my tattoo to be finished(???) until i called to make a second appointment. They are being deliberately shady about where your money goes and when you ask questions they are unnecessarily rude. Nothing about that is honest or upfront. I was never planning on going back and my review was more so constructive than negative and now I'm banned from going there? how does that even make sense. Pease do better for the sake of your other customers.

Original: I've been going to this tattoo parlor since 2018 and since then they've changed a lot of their policies and now it just feels like a scam. They have a $150 minimum deposit policy that they say goes towards your tattoo but definitely doesn't. I paid $330 for a tattoo that wasn't finished and then when I called back to set up an appointment for it to be finished they told me I would have to pay a second deposit, or I couldn't have my tattoo finished. Other than that Matt was great, love him as an artist individually, or I would've left just 1 star but the new policies they have are a complete scam. I would suggest shopping around before deciding on here, there are a lot of places that will not charge you crazy deposits for equally good, if not better work.

I got my 3rd tattoo done here, but this was my first one in awhile. Not going to lie but I was nervous. Sam was so awesome and so cool during the whole process. She really eased my mind! So sweet, funny, and she really heard me out in what I wanted. I will definitely be coming back for more tattoos and I highly recommend Sam and her shop to anybody looking to get a tattoo!

I had a great experience my artist Sam is truly a gem I am beyond impressed with the work. Immaculate quality and a great environment. The artist is professional and ridiculously talented. I highly recommend coming to this shop whether its a simple or complex tattoo.
