The Badder Ink

I cannot say enough how much you should choose this tattoo parlor when wanting a tattoo in Washington, The artists are phenomenal and tonight I specifically speak on israel He’s not only a kind hearted wonderful talented tattooist, but he changed my confidence after doing my friend and my tattoos we wanted while we are here. He went above and beyond our expectations for our tattoo and listened and made sure the placement was right and it looked exactly as we were wanting. The fine detail and hard work he dedicates to begin such a talented artist shows in our tattoos. In addition, I have been extremely self conscious about a bad tattoo for a long time and even when so hot, I would always wear long sleeves to hide my arm tattoo. Tonight, chris changed that for me and the experience my friend and I had was one to remember. I actually cried because of how beautiful my arm now looks and the fact I don’t feel I need to hide it when I’m in my home state anymore. I highly recommend this place and israel I give him a 10 star rating well beyond a 5. The artists here are very kind and you will have a wonderful experience going here. The daytime sometimes has the best chance to go in and get work done. They are true talent and I’m so glad we went while we are here. He’s changed my self esteem about my body because of his work tonight. They do if not busy take walk in’s. Choose this place and do yourself a favor when wanting a clean, unique, and stand out art for your body when coming to or living in Washington

I went to this place to get my ear pierced, and the staff was awesome right from the start. Katy, in particular, was super friendly and made the whole experience so comfortable.
I had a great time overall!

I went to this tattoo shop and was blown away by the talent of the artists and the welcoming atmosphere they create.

Ricardo, my tattoo artist, created a work of art on my skin that exceeded my expectations and left me feeling overjoyed.

I can't wait to come back to this wonderful place again and experience the amazing artistry and positive energy that they have to offer.

They are extremely professional. I really like the atmosphere. They respond to requests quickly. Frank was fantastic; he was knowledgeable about cover-ups and had excellent shading skills. I can say you won't be disappointed with them.

I went to The Badder Ink because I was looking for a tattoo that would cover up a scar on my arm. The environment was very welcoming, and the employees were friendly and helpful. They made sure that I got what I wanted and explained everything thoroughly.

I got my first tattoo over 20 years ago, however, it took me that long to get another. I decided for my second tattoo to go with a full arm sleeve. I started researching different shops and artist. I found Badderink tattoo shop, after I saw Israel badder work on Instagram. I was impressed by his black and grey pieces, it was exactly what I was looking for. I contacted them through the shop website and with in a couple of hours, I received a phone call. After choosing Israel as my artist and telling them what I wanted, I was booked for my first session for the following month.Israel is a very talented artist, his work is amazing, I’m glad I found this shop.

Yo!!! Badder Ink is the real deal! I basically showed Israel the concept and a few things I wanted to incorporate. Then, blast! This masterpiece came to life through wizardry, volcano energy, and the sounds of a kazoo. Yes, it was only the first session, but I was very pleased with how it turned out.

Israel was extremely thoughtful throughout the entire process. From the consultation to the first session, he took the time to listen to and address concerns. There was no douchey explanation, and the concept remained exactly as I desired. He even knew the hikae's history and meanings! Very impressive.

My sister and I walked into Badderink the day after my brother passed away. We knew that we wanted to get a memorial tattoo for him. He died from very aggressive colon cancer. Pablo took our original idea and made it even better.
As with any small business you have to specialize, and Japanese is their specialty. But as with any good artist, you can do anything.
Pablo created a beautiful memory for us and he even tattooed our 77-year-old tattoo Virgin dad. He has an amazing light touch and great personality to work with.
Whether it's your first tattoo, or your 20th like mine, I highly recommend Pablo at badderink tattoo.

Amazing experience and even better everything ! The vibe in the shop was armonic and everyone was super nice and unpretentious. The woman that worked the desk was very helpful and direct me with the best tattoo artist reccommend frank based on the piece I wanted and I am so glad she did. He brought my vision to life by listening to everything I requested (even when I had some trouble articulating) and asking further questions. The end result was absolutely perfect just what I ask for ! I have many tattoos alredy and dont plan to go anywhere else but badder ink in the future, Highly recommend This shop!!

Thank you Frank for creating a beautiful tattoo for me. You were so kind and professional throughout the process. I would absolutely recommend Badder Ink to anyone looking for some amazing works!!
