Black Amethyst Tattoo Company Akron

Update 03/04. I loved the work done by Slink. They were fast and efficient. Will be back for more. . . . I booked an appointment with Rachel Marie since Sept 19th for the appointment date on Oct 17th at11 AM. After arriving on time, I had to wait 30 min at the lobby only to be told by the artist herself that she was not ready with the art I provided 5 days prior for the appointment date. She said she thought it was an easy sketch, but turns out it was the opposite. She, then, try to make it seem it was my fault for sending her a new sketch so close to tattooing date to which I asked if she already had the “old” design ready, her answer was no. I would have rebook with her, but I realized how unprofessional she was for being unprepared and for not being punctual. Anyways, I was disappointed (absolutely) but I am glad I wasn’t inked by an artist who is so irresponsible. I know it’s unfair to give two stars, but to whoever it is trying to book I would suggest avoiding Rachel.

Wonderful group of skilled artists. This is a welcoming & friendly space.

Slinkii sacrificed their whole Saturday to do a surprise birthday gift tattoo for my husband that we planned out together over the course of a few weeks, they were communicative and shared their progress right up until the day of the appt. He loves it! And they did one for me that same day and it’s perf! Thanks Slinkii!

Let me start this off by saying that Black Amethyst was an extraordinary experience from beginning to end. I was fortunate enough to have Slinkii as an artist, who was friendly, positive, helpful, and talented. I couldn’t be happier with my tattoo! This was my very first tattoo and I felt comfortable and welcome at BA. I would trust Slinkii with all my future tattoos. If you’re thinking about coming, you definitely should!

I had an appointment made with Avery which she cancelled only hours before for a family emergency which I was understanding about and I was able to reschedule with her the following week. 2 hours before that appointment I received a text from her cancelling due to illness which I also understood. She offered to do the tattoo for free which I was very grateful for. I texted back within minutes trying to figure out a time to reschedule for. Days and several texts went by before I finally got a response. I ended up just getting my deposit back because communication was lacking. I had taken off work twice for this and still don’t have the tattoo. I didn’t feel like this was handled very professionally and I didn’t feel like she cared about my appointment anymore since she would not be making any money off of it. I planned to tip and she would still get my deposit money. I felt this whole experience was handled poorly. I’m disappointed with how this was handled and will not be trying here again. I love what this company stands for and their views but the service hasn’t been great.

Avery did an amazing job on my hip tattoo!! It was my first big piece and she always made sure I was comfortable and doing okay. Her art is beautiful, I highly recommend going to her! Will be getting all future pieces done by her

Corina did a wonderful job on my back tattoo! I am so happy with how it turned out and I will definitely be returning here for my next tattoo. The shop was super cute and so welcoming; I’ve not experienced that at other shops before.

Sadie did a fantastic job!! I had such an amazing experience and I love my butterfly piece from her!

I recently got tattooed by Sadie. She made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. The tattoo turned out even better than I imagined and I couldn't be happier with it. I highly recommend Sadie and Black Amethyst to anyone looking for a great tattoo experience

Sadie has done multiple tattoos of mine and always does an PHENOMENAL job! Her style of art is amazing and you can really see she cares for every piece she does. The vibe of the shop is always welcoming, friendly and clean. They really know how to make you feel comfortable. I will continue to go to Sadie for all of my tattoos!

I’ve been going to Sadie damn near since the day she started tattooing, and it’s for a reason. She is supercalifragilisticexpilaidocious at tattooing. She does better than I expect every single time, and I always walk out of there feeling amazing. Not only from the tattoos Sadie gives me, but the time I get to spend with her. She is an inspiring woman and I am thankful to share these experiences with her.

Hi! Sadie did two tattoos for me back in October, and I had an absolutely awesome experience with her and Black Amethyst tattoo. Everyone at the shop was kind and attentive asking if I needed snacks or a Gatorade. Sadie was patient and genuine, letting me look over her designs and chat about placement ideas. Nothing but a positive experience, and I left with some beautiful art!

I got my first two tattoos last March and couldn't be happier for multiple reasons. The shop itself is extremely clean and friendly. Booking was easy and organized, communication was great. I had the privilege to work with Sadie and not only did she do great with the designs and tattoos but she was great to talk to and put my nerves about the whole process to rest. Would definitely recommend her!

Sadie did my tattoo and she was so nice. I felt very welcomed and the whole experience was good!

Got tattooed twice by sadie this year. She is super sweet & does phenomenal work! I’m so in love w her work and the pieces she put on me. Shes super welcoming as well! I definitely recommend going to her!

Sadie did the most beautiful Medusa tattoo for me. Design was perfect and it was such a pleasant experience. Will definitely be going back to Black Amethyst for other pieces in the future. Highly recommend.

My sister and I got fairy tattoos from Sadie together and they look amazing! The environment of this shop is so wonderful- our car broke down in the parking lot and everyone there was super helpful in helping us figure out what to do!

I was tattooed by Sadie Winter over the summer and it was a fantastic experience! I decided on a larger thigh piece and Sadie was so sweet and professional during the entire couple of hours it took. I definitely would love to be tattooed by her again in the future!!

I have gone to Black Amethyst for all of my tattoos, the environment is so welcoming and every artist makes the space feel comfortable and safe. Sadie has done the majority of my tattoos and never fails to impress me, I’ve had both flash and custom work and she has done such an amazing job making my tattoo visions come to life.

I had a tattoo done by Sadie back in October and had an amazing experience! She was very welcoming and easy to talk to. She is an amazing artist and I love everything she creates.
