“Wow, what an incredible experience!! My 2 sisters and I were honored to be tattooed by Ramon. So professional, calm, and patient. I got 2 small tattoos, and my sisters got 1 each and we were there for less than 2hrs - his efficiency did not take away from the final product of the work. We’re all so happy and will def return. Recommend!“

“My son got 3 tattoos for his 18th birthday present by Freddy and he did an amazing job! My husband and I got tattoos for our 10 year wedding anniversary and Matt was amazing!!! I'm obsessed with this place will plan on coming back for many many more tattoos!!“

“I dont even know where to begin other than to just say wow, in the absolute best way possible. Mina is a true artist, she is beyond talented and genuinely gifted in tattooing. She took pieces of my idea and crafted them into a drawing that was spot on, then proceeded to create a tattoo that was better than I could have ever imagined. Her attention to detail is out of this world. I will forever cherish this piece that she created for me, and will never go anywhere else but to her for any other tattoo I ever get in the future.“

“I called this place because of it’s great reviews online and Josh took me in the next day. He patiently helped create my vision for my tattoo and it was done in no time. Thank you Josh!

Will be back!“

“Juan was amazing and went at my pace. He kept tweaking my design, asking guiding questions, and using my input. He came up with a beautiful piece that was exactly what I wanted and worked with me to see how to make it fit my budget. He was attentive and kind, and truly an amazing artist. his line work was clean yet detailed, and he showed mastery over making sure the tattoo wasn’t distorted because of my clothes or how i was positioned. would recommend!“

“I can’t speak more highly of Darlene! She is incredibly knowledgeable, creative, and disarming. My husband and I went in for matching tattoos and she really listened to us and presented multiple options for what we were looking for. We’re both so happy with the results and are going back for another round of tattoos. Highly recommend Odyssey Wellness Tattoo for anyone looking for a good tattoo studio in the greater Boston area!“

“Clarice is extremely knowledgeable and kind. The space is so clean and inviting! I highly recommend her for microblading and permanent makeup“

“I am very fortunate to be a cosmetic tattoo client of Juli Moon. She originally provided me with eyebrow tattoos in 2010 and did the first touch-up in 2015. I recently went back for a second touch-up, and my experience was just as wonderful as the first two appointments.
Juli is patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and a fantastic conversationalist. With all her years' experience, I fully trust her input and judgment, but she is always willing to listen to her clients as well since we wear the art.
Her location has its own parking lot, which is shared for all the businesses in the building. The studio itself is on the second floor, and each artist has their own space. It's such a creative atmosphere that exudes confidence and is welcoming to all. I always look forward to coming to see Juli.

“I love the tattoo work they do here & are mindful of their customers. I got introduced to them last year through a post on Instagram when they had a flash tattoo event for Friday the 13th & sooo many ppl came. The owner was nice, the tat artists are talented & I'll be coming here more often to get some more work done. Randy took time on my small tattoo yesterday and made sure I was satisfied with the end result. If anyone is looking for a tattoo at a reasonable price, come here u won't be disappointed!!! ??“

“I had an absolutely fantastic experience getting tattooed by Brian Hemming at GITM. This was not my first tattoo but it was my first "custom" tattoo, where I wanted someone to design my idea for me, and I was pretty nervous about the whole process. I searched for a really long time before finding Brian's work, and I pretty much immediately knew that his artistic style was what I was looking for. I booked an online consultation with him and he was super friendly, easy to work with, and I could tell he actually cared about understanding my idea. He sent me some preliminary sketches and I requested a few modifications to his initial sketch which he was totally cool about. Again, I could tell he understood the idea I had in my head. When he sent me the final design, I was honestly blown away -- it was perfect. We booked an appointment and he did the tattoo in one session. We even had to make one last-minute adjustment which he accommodated with no problem. The whole experience was super comfortable and super professional -- really, it pretty much could not have gone any better. Brian was able to take an idea I had in my head and turn it into something real and authentic. I literally could not be happier with the tattoo and how it turned out. The entire process was excellent and I am so humbled and grateful to Brian for his work!“

“Jason was amazing!! I was in town for a short time & he got me in. He took my idea design & created a masterpiece and he had excellent recommendations on colors. If you are local or visiting I HIGHLY recommend him. He is an excellent artist.“

“Dave is amazing, efficient, funny and have the greatest stories! He was able to take me in on the same day was able to execute a tattoo that my daughter and I drew. I am excited to say I will be back!“

“Kimmie was very friendly and professional to work with. She immediately knew what kind of style I wanted to achieve, and was very clear in her communication. It was my first time dyeing my hair, so we went for subtle ash blonde highlights that came out beautifully. Kimmie cares a lot about her customers, as she was able to accommodate to my schedule and come in a bit earlier just to fit me in. Would definitely come again for more highlights!!“

“The whole experience was amazing. Vinny made me feel completely comfortable, he and his team are talented professionals. Highly recommended!!“
