“Mindy is truly the goat, I came right at closing time for the second year in the row and she still happily did my piercing. Everyone has such a great vibe and I love it!“

“I recently got my very first tattoo done here, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. the atmosphere was welcoming and super chill—instantly helped ease my nerves. The staff was friendly, professional, and took the time to walk me through every step of the process.
Huge shoutout to Erik—he crushed it! He was fast, easy to talk to, and the amount of detail he pulled off in just a couple hours was wild. Super impressed with the quality and how smooth the whole process was.
Also, big thanks to Kelso for handling the scheduling—super responsive and made it easy to get booked quickly, which I really appreciated. Everything was organized and stress-free from the start.
All in all, I’m beyond happy with how everything turned out.
If you’re thinking about getting your first tattoo(or your 10th), this is 100% the place. You’ll feel comfortable, taken care of, and leave with something awesome. Thanks again to Erik, Kelso, and the whole crew!“

“1000/10 recommend this establishment! The environment is so clean and the staff is very welcoming! I got my piercing changed because it was too short and embedded in my skin! Coda inspected it and switched it with the correct size! She’s the best and so sweet.“

“I have witnessed the talent of these individuals first hand. Not only are they amazing artists, they are unbelievably kind and caring human beings that give back to their communities.“

“I will forever return to Mo for any type of tattoo highly recommended. He for sure has a lifelong customer.“

“Olivia is the best! She did my first ever tattoo and was so amazing. She was super helpful with giving me all the information I needed and walked me through the whole process, which I really appreciated as someone who had no background knowledge whatsoever. She is so incredibly talented, and the best thing about her is the way she takes pride in her work. You can really tell that she cares about the pieces she creates and wants them to look good just as much as her clients do.

Olivia definitely exceeded my expectations and went above and beyond to make my vision come to life!

The studio was also super clean and comforting. It was awesome being in a private room- it felt less intimidating and calmed some of my nerves as a first timer. Thank you again Olivia and Tattooed Heart Studios!“

“My mom-in-law and I decided to get tattoos. Cool huh? Both are simple designs but we'd never done this before. A friend of mine suggested Raven and Rose, and we're really glad that she did. I submitted info via their online contact form and Laura quickly got back to me. We went back and forth a bit via emails on details because, again, our first times. Had a fantastic experience. Laura is great and could not be better. She was really REALLY concerned that we were 100% comfortable before, during, and after. We had lots of questions and she had lots of answers. Each of our tattoos took just 30-40 minutes, so not very large or intricate. She constantly checked in with us during the process. Lots of small talk which she even said ahead of time would help mitigate the very minor uncomfortableness of being poked by a needle thousands of times in the same place. It worked. Laura, and the whole studio, could not have been better. Everyone was incredibly friendly. Highly recommend R&R for any tattooing and related artwork. We're both really happy with what we now have.“

“Loved the piercings done by rampage, she was amazing and had great energy. I got industrial piercings, and they were $70, and it hurt a little, but the way she did it, the experience was good and it didnt hurt afterwards, she was good at letting us know how to do aftercare. Thank you for such a good time, and I will go again for another one.“

“7+ years painful pleasures has been my go to supply company for all my piercing
Needs ALSO TATTOO SUPPLIES!/general tattoo shop supplies. One stop shop kind of company“

“What a wonderful experience. Every so often a place of business will raise the bar for the industry. After being tattooed the past 8 years in a variety of high-end shops in DC and Northern VA, I was blown away by the place. This has to be the most state of the art and clean studios I have ever seen. It is located off a main highway, in a nice quiet industrial park with a nice forrest view. There is ample free parking. The inside of Painful Pleasures looks brand new and is very, very well kept. Hell, even the bathroom has automatic sink and soap dispenser, the floor is immaculate. Every little detail is taken care of. The individual rooms they use for tattooing have private TVs and radio options. The tattoo chair is ergonomic and very comfortable. My artist had the cleanliness and professionalism that could make most ERs look silly. There is also a feature to turn the clear glass walls opaque for tattoos in places that not everybody gets to see. All of the supplies are top notch and they don't skimp. My artist even cleaned the chair in front of me with bleach based cleaner before getting started (despite the fact it was already clean). He also opened all needles in front of me and changed gloves repeatedly to avoid any cross contamination. I was hesitant to post because I am selfishly hoping to allow this studio to be the best kept secret in the DMV area, but when a business and an artist put this much effort into customer experience and work, recognition is mandatory.“

“Missy is the best! I've been coming for years...excellent service, beautiful shop and the esthetics are great. Will continue to support in the future!“

“this is the only place I will go for any tattoos or piercings! been coming to this shop for the last 2-3 years and I have never had a bad experience.“

“we got my daughters ears pierced and it was a great experience! very quick and professional!“

“The lady who did our tattoo was so friendly really quick and a pro at script writing! Would highly recommend“

“I had a tattoo on my chest about five years ago from Jacob. I was happy with the results.

I went in today to have a conversation with Tom. He was very nice and professional and you could tell he knows what he’s doing and he is very relaxed.

I recommend this place because for the last 30 years before we had the Internet.

This was the place that everybody talked about.“

“I got my eye brows done. Jillian was kind, gentle, professional and about her business. The service that she gives is priceless. It is worth every dollar. Sage Cosmetic Tattoo, is the place to go for your eyebrows. Treat yourself to more beauty. You deserve it. They turned out beautiful. I had my touch up at the end of June 2024, and that went as great as when she first did them. My eyebrows looks natural and on point. I recommend Sage to any one that desire to be good to themselves. I can't stop looking at them. Thank you“

“This is a nice tattoo shop. Everyone was respectful, and the vibes were cool. Ray was my tattoo artist. I sent him a picture, and he made it pop 10x better. Great services and location. I plan on coming back whenever I'm in Baltimore.“

“Great shop talented artists I’ve been working with Joe on a sleeve project and he has been amazing. He is a fantastic artist turning my ideas into original art. He is great to bounce ideas off of and come up with tattoos that have blown me away. Even after the work was done he called to check up on how the tat was healing. He goes the extra mile to ensure the whole experience is top notch, couldn’t ask for more. The only place I’ll get new work done.“

“This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. My tattoo artist was very knowledgeable, professional and accommodating to me as this was my very first tattoo. I would recommend T.K. Beauty Loft,LLC for all your tattoo needs. Thank you so much. See you soon for other services.“

“Savage is the top tattoo artist in Baltimore and the DMV Even more important, he is a true stand up individual. If you're looking for a new shop to go to check them out“

“Airbrush Unlimited, Myrta in particular, was amazing to work with! They made hoodies for an upcoming Bat Mitzvah! The hoodies turned out so great- and Myrta was such a pleasure! Amazing customer service, patient, and responsive- everything you need from a vendor! The order was ready quickly too! Highly recommend- and can’t wait to use them again!“

“I could not be happier with the work Kaleb did. I gave him an image of a balrog I wanted a couple days before, and he created his own art done in the traditional tattoo style. It came out perfect. He was also extremely pleasant to talk to before, during, and after the work was done. I'll be going back for more tattoos from him in the future.“

“Jon first tattooed me back in 2016 and he's done majority of my tatts (latest one being Sept 2022) His quality gets better and better as time goes on. Watching him progress and succeed over the years, to now owning his own shop- he definitely deserves it. The space is clean and comfortable and Jon really keeps it professional. I absolutely trust his judgement and ideas! His lines are clean and shading is on point. You can tell he really loves what he does & takes pride in his work. (as he should) Even over the years, the tattoos look great and I get compliments everywhere I go. Would highly recommend consulting with Jon about your next tattoo!“

“Ria Rabitt was my artist and I absolutely love my piece she created!! Booking was super easy and she was very responsive to my inquiry. She recommended colors that would compliment my skin tone as I was unsure which colors to choose. She constantly checked on me to make sure I didn’t need a break during the session. Will return to this location to get tattooed by her again!!“

“Got my tragus pierced by Aliza and she also pierced my son's ears while we were there. She was very professional and accommodating. My son's ears swelled and she immediately had him come in to give him swell bars (I think they are called) to make him more comfortable. I look forward to returning for more piercings and tattoos. Highly recommend! Check them out, you won't be disappointed.“

“Had a really great first experience here with Diego. He's an incredibly talented traditional artist and did an excellent job with an idea I came to him with. The shop is super clean, fun, and relaxed. Will be back for my next one, highly recommend this shop whether you're in Baltimore or beyond!“
