Will absolutely be contacting him for future endeavors. (I'll add a picture when it's a bit healed.) (It's a rat dragon and it's incredible)“

“I’m 52 and this was my first tat ever and I am not disappointed. The front office staff is friendly and professional and I can’t say enough about Reggie. He talked me through my fears and was very patient with me. Reggie did his good tatting on 7/23/25. Every time I look at my tat, I’m reminded of how fierce I am. Love this shop and thanks to Reg for bringing my vision to life through ink. Next up…the butterfly ?“

“Joe hands down is the coldest tattoo artist I’ve had tattooed me! His work is beautiful and long lasting definitely recommend him and this shop 10/10“

“Personally Idc what the few ppl with bad reviews have to say. I personally enjoyed the environment and got to speak with a lot of the artists. Everyone was very kind. Manny is one of the very talented artists that tattooed my own artwork on me and it came out almost better than the actual artwork i provided. Took a few hours (3-4 hours with a couple breaks in between) which is not bad at all for the size and details of the tattoo. I really enjoyed this spot and i plan on coming back for more. In fact they inspired me to possibly become an apprentice for the shop which i will definitely consider once i speak with the owner. Nonetheless this one of, if not, the best tattoo shop in the 219 area“

“Becky explained every step of my nose piercing and made me feel so comfortable. Afterwards she then explained how to care for my piercing and even offered to help me change the jewelry when it was time.“

“Chill atmosphere, amazing work, down to earth people. I've came across alot of dbag receptionists but the receptionist was chill, the artist I had was very chill and knowledgeable. The price was worth the result.
From out of town, visiting family and loved being able to walk in and get inked without having to set up an appt. I'll defiently be coming back.“

“This place is Awesome, took my son for his first tattoo and Diamond and Brenda were sooo nice. While we were there, I decided to get my tragus pierced and Brenda did it and she was so gentle and looks awesome, I love it. Diamond who did my son tattoo did such a good job and was so gentle as well and kept him calm. He loves it!!! We drove all the way from Streamwood, IL and will definitely go back.Services: Piercings“

“Honestly, I've been debating on the severity of my need to get new ink. I had so many life obstacles and the mark of triumph is usually found in the hands of a talented artist willing to doctor you up with ink. I have one tattoo that marks a history and future that can't really be explained unless you ask me yourself. I feel connected to where I am in terms of body dysmorphia, I consider myself a christian and my body to be a temple of praise. Well what's a cathedral without stained glass? Honoring the body with glory matters and in the hands of many artists...every piece is a memento of expression and service from one human to another.To fulfill this sentiment, I thought my nose would be cute with a hole in it and DEE from Cold As Ice Ink was beyond patient, ethical and quite friendly.I totally love what I was able to convey to him and get exactly what I needed. Too many times we don't realize the importance of a tattoo artist...they listen, they feel and they write our bodies in a storyboard that only we can understand.If you are near 8100 S. Stony Island Ave.Look for DEE and tell him the college girl Sandra Coin sent ya as seen as #sandracoinent on Linkedin.“

“Had a tattoo date booked with the bf. I was recommended to Don by many people The bf was scheduled with Nole. The place is very welcoming. Don and Nole are amazing. We both are completely happy. Highly recommend them both! Will definitely be getting another tattoo from Don in the future. Just a heads up he is so awesome that he's usually booked out a couple months. Book ahead!“

“The experience was amazing ! My niece is from Texas and she wanted to get her noise pierced and I said me too ! Called and spoke to Bob the owner and he was amazing ! We came the following week and got our noise pierced. Bob was very informative and nice ! It was so quick and looks beautiful ! Definitely will be back !“

“Carolyn is dope. She did my eyebrows but I took them out due to me having an allergic reaction which sucked because she did an awesome job! She did my girls nipples and they look great! They never got infected and she informed us how to take care of them! Definitely thinking about coming back for my tongue piercing and also maybe some tattoos! To all the ones leaving reviews about piercings please get knowledge on the piercing before coming in we looked ours up and how to clean it and everything I mean don’t get me wrong Carolyn definitely told us the dos and donts but we still looked it up before we even chose to get what we wanted done. Don’t bash someone because you didn’t wanna get some knowledge before going in. Anyways there great! I’d go back!“
