Great Experience Friendly Staff Clean Establishment

Loved my experience here! T-Bone(Thomas) did an amazing job! I got two small tattoos done by him and they both came out beautiful. The whole process was quick and easy and he made me feel very comfortable. I loved chatting with him as well, he’s very friendly. The people at the front desk were also super kind and welcoming. The establishment itself was also very clean and colorful and vibrant, i loved the energy there . Would definitely recommend!

Great Experience Efficient Work Helpful Staff Reasonable Price

I’ve been looking for a new shop since relocating from Florida and this is definitely it. My husband and I tried another shop in town and didn’t have the best experience (although the tattoos still came out great) so I was a little nervous about this one. I got 2 tattoos in one session and they both came out better than I imagined. Jason and the front desk woman were both fantastic and made me feel comfortable and totally judgement free. The price was also way less than I expected because he worked quickly and efficiently. I have 22 other tattoos, but he still took the time to go over aftercare which I really appreciated because I do be forgetful. Highly recommend this place and Jason, and I’m looking forward to going back!

Tattoo artist very rude upon arrival, would not work with me regarding cursive tattoo idea, negative vibes. Would not recommend.

Clean Shop Friendly Staff Great Service Talented Artists

Very happy with my experience here! Clean shop and everyone was very nice. Sabe, at the front desk, was very sweet and answered my questions throughly. T-Bone did my tattoo. He took aspects from 2 different pictures and combined them into exactly what I wanted. This was my first tattoo but, thanks to everyone at this shop, it won't be my last!

Poor Customer Service Unprofessional Behavior Health Violation

I received a tattoo here yesterday. At first, I was optimistic I had spoken to the receptionist who was very friendly and answered every questions I had. Upon entering the shop I noticed it was clean so that was a plus again, the receptionist was very nice and if not for her I would have been hesitant. Fast forward the design I had sent to the receptionist didn’t go into correlation of the placement, size etc into what I wanted to cover up which I understood after talking with the artist. My problem was that the artist did not introduce himself say hello or anything which I thought didn’t make this a friendly experience at all when you go to an artist you want to get a warm welcome and friendly vibe but I just didn’t get that. And instead of making suggestions and asking me what I wanted to do and taking his time I felt very rushed and felt like he was in it for the money. We came on an agreement with a rose to match my other tattoo which I thought would be good. He then proceeded to outline/sketch my tattoo on my body with a sharpie marker. I’m no tattoo expert but once your opening the skin isn’t that dangerous to get the toxic ink from the sharpie into your blood stream??! I thought my overall experience would be more welcoming and friendly from the artist and I thought he would take his time to sketch on a piece of paper instead of outlining with a sharpie on my body for 30 seconds and spend more time on creating the design instead of rushing. You can tell that he didn’t shade throughly rushed through the whole process and could care less about my tattoo. Very disappointed in the customer service and I’m hoping the sharpie going into my blood stream won’t cause any problems. Shouldn’t that be a health violation? (This is something I’m going to look into for myself with my doctor.) I wish I wasn’t filled with so many emotions I should have went in with. a clear head because if I was thinking clearly I would have noticed these red flags. If your looking for an impressionable friendly experience and an artist who will take there time and not draw with a sharpie on your body and spend 5 minutes to tattoo on your body, then I suggest you go somewhere else.

Rude Artist Uncomfortable Experience Poor Communication Voided Gift Certificate

The artist who I did a consultation with was rude and made me feel extremely uncomfortable, didn’t even introduce himself to me, and I had to ask three times around how much the tattoo would be before I got an answer- it felt like they were trying to just get me in and then tell me after the tattoo. On top of that, because they wouldn’t originally tell me how much the tattoo would be, they didn’t have me put a deposit down. I had a gift certificate and when I cancelled the appointment because I felt uncomfortable in getting tattooed there, they voided out my gift certificate as the deposit. Overall, bad vibes and just felt like they were trying to pull one over on me. And I’m out of my gift certificate.
Went to A Vita in East Greenbush and they did it last night for way less than quoted by lark street and it’s BEAUTIFUL

Friendly Service Good Experience

We went to another tattoo shop first for nipple piercings but the piercer looked so high on heroin or some type of sedative, that we chose not to let her pierce us. We stopped at lark st to see if they could fit us in they couldn't which was fine. Just wanted to give a shout out to the front desk receptionist at lark st as she seemed SOBER and was extremely friendly. We told her of our experience at Shocker and she claimed she hears that regularly which is sad. I will bring my business to Lark st, thanks for friendly sober service Lark St!
