10 Thousand Foxes Tattoo - Astoria

I currently got a beautiful tattoo done here. The environment is very comfortable, warm welcoming, and very clean. The staff was geniuinly sweet and caring for my needs while I got my tattoo. Nicole was very sweet, made sure I was very comfortable while doing my tattoo. Nothing but positivite vibes. Prices are very very reasonable and the staff are very good on capturing your tattoo idea and making into something you will desire.

After more than 40 hours under her brilliant hands, I can say with absolute authority that Rain is a consummate professional. Her art is extraordinary, both on the page and on the skin. I came to Rain with a fairly vague concept ("I want wings, but like if they were from Lothlórien the way Tolkien drew it....") and her initial rendering stunned me - it was gorgeous. A few minor changes later and we started the process of transforming my entire back. The end result is nothing short of perfect. For the first time in my life, I'm looking forward to wearing a bathing suit...because I can't wait to show off my wings!

10 Thousand Foxes is cleaner than a hospital, and Nichole is fastidious in keeping it that way. This shop is the only place other than my home where I felt totally safe during the pandemic. Mask were worn by everyone at all times, hand sanitizer was readily available, and of course Rain was hyper-vigilant about her workstation and equipment. It may sound obvious, but I was very grateful for these protocols, particularly during COVID.

Long story short: if you want an incredible work of art that will be with you for the rest of your life, book an appointment with Rain. Her creativity and talent are boundless, and she is a true joy to work with.

*** If you're looking to get tatted but are nervous since it's your first time ***
check this place out and ask for Tim
I got my first piece from him when I was 18 (22 now) and I was incredibly and happily surprised by not only the quality of work but how little it hurt. The guy is a mega pro and I highly recommend him.

Shop full of very talented artists, clean, professional. I go to Rain because she is very talented and also I went to school with her so we have some history. We laugh and joke throughout my sessions, maybe too loudly. I have to work on that and consider the other patrons. Other than that, awesome tattoo studio.

A truly great shop with extremely talented artists. The price is very fair for the talent and quality of these artists/tattoos. I entrusted Nicole with my sleeve which came out better than I imagined. I wouldn’t go anywhere else & strongly recommend all my friends to come to BLT for amazing work.

The whole experience from start to end was excellent. Rachel did a great job on my tattoo and everyone that worked here was super friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be coming back here.

If you're in the market for a tattoo you should read this. Whether you've been tattooed before, or if this is your first time this is the place to go. I went to an artist at a different shop who did not stick to my vision at all, and I had to respectfully leave. Some artists develop a complex where they think their clients are like cattle, and suggest what they want to draw rather than stick to what their client wants. That is not the case at Body Language Tattoo. Every artist not only has their own unique style, but they all have true vision and that is incridibly rare in a tattoo shop for all of the artists to share. That vision is almost like a police sketcher. People give those sketchers the worst possible descriptions and somehow they draw an exact portrait. Instead of a quick portrait, these artists are designing insanely detailed pieces of art, which are directly personal to you. When you walk in here you feel the connection these artists have with one another. Eventually if you become a client you feel you're part of that. It's the exact experience I had been looking for in a shop

My experience:
I saw Nicole's art work online and really liked her style, so I figured I'd go to the shop and check it out. When I got there and started talking to her, I instantly knew she was a true artist. As I started explaining each minor detail of what I wanted, she was able to see in her minds eye exactly what I was saying, and actually began finishing my sentence in depth!
( always be as clear and concise as possible to help with this process ) She has worked with me and was able to bring vision I have in my head perfectly into my tattoo. She was and still is insanely respectful of what I want and that translates into her work. She is so easy to talk to, so involved with what you want and will do her absolute best every single time. It's the experience I've always looked for in a tattoo shop. Nicole is truly incredible and I would say go to her, but each individual artist at the shop has so much to offer. You really should talk to and research each artist before you make up your mind. If I could have done it all over again, I would only have come here every time.

I have nothing but good things to say about Body Language Tattoo. When I went in for my initial consultation, everyone who I spoke to was friendly and accommodating, and booking my appointment was simple and quick. When I got my actual tattoo, it was done by Carlos. He looked at my design with me, and helped me tweak it just a little bit to make it that much better. The whole thing took about an hour, and the price was more than reasonable for the work that was done. I will definitely come back here for future tattoos, and would highly recommend this place to anyone.

I was recommended this tattoo place y my best friend who got a cover up done by the owner. I came in to get more information and decided to book an appointment. I placed $100 deposit down for my tattoo and was informed that if I cancel with less than 2 days notice I will lose it. Well, I showed up the day off my tattoo and my son because my babysitter was a no show. They curtly (was very short and rude with me) explained that for safety and security reasons he couldn't be here. I completely understood and try to explain my circumstance. I explained that my best friend got her's done here by the owner who allowed her daughter to be there but my son couldn't. As if my son was a bad kid - he has been there are my last 7 tattoos at previos locations and has NEVER ran around or gotten up. I had no problem to reschedule until they wanted to tell me that even though I showed up and was ready to be tattooed, I lost my deposit and needed to give them yet another $100 because of a misunderstanding. If my best friend came to this same place and got her tattoo done WITH her daughter, why would I think it was such a big problem for me\? They tried to "hit me with the rules" but openly admitted to bending them for customers they felt like. I will never come here again and the 5 people I had lined up for them plus the other 3 more tattoos that I had ready to bring business is now going to someone else. I understand the policy and I was willing to pay for my tatt but their lack of customer service, people skills, and unwillingness to work with me shows me how money hungry these people really are!!!

I walked in yesterday night greeted nicely by the front desk receptionist (I forgot her name, I'm sorry!). Tim was my artist and he was AHMAZING! I had the olive branch done on my ankle and I was alittle nervous about the pain but they were so nice and made me feel comfortable. Mister gentle hands drew what I asked for and I LOVE IT! I am definitely returning for another piece soon! THANKS GUYS! 🤩
