“Brent, was awesome matching 4 sisters with same tattoo with 1 change per sister. Awesome work and making us comfortable“

“First time customer - I had a great experience. I came in looking for two simple tattoos and my artist Mike knocked it out of the park. I wanted a Lego man and an Orioles “O” and he made each of them fit the simple style I was looking for while adding details that made the tattoos come out better than I had imagined. He made me feel comfortable and listened to and had great conversation throughout the appointment. I brought my friend with me and he made him feel very comfortable and included as well. Very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions well. Also, if you get chilly in there, they have soft fuzzy blankets for you to use. Wonderful vibes. Absolutely recommend.“

“I got my knee done by Justine and she was awesome. Super chill, let me be in my zone, and was fun to yap with in between. She also successfully put saniderm on my giant knee tattoo that has stayed on and I’ve been able to walk; so she is the absolute boss for doing that.“

“I don’t give many reviews, but I will say I really appreciate and respect this business. I got my first eyebrow tattoo around five years ago. Then around 2 1/2 years ago got it done by the owner again and was very happy with the results. I recently inquired about getting mine done again and she respectfully said that they look very well and to wait. I really appreciate the honesty and not just a business trying to make money. I still get compliments even though they were done years. Thanks Sage!“

“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“

“Excellent experience getting pierced by Bob here. I called in, asked for the price of two lobe piercings ($52 total including jewelry and credit card fee, which is awesome), and was told he'd take me a half hour before closing. Process was quick and easy, and the piercings themselves were professionally administered and cared for. Can't ask for anything else.“

“Champ is a great tattoo artist and host. He was super friendly, and did a great job on me and my fiance's tattoos. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in the Baltimore area.“

“I absolutely love it at Tattooed Heart! Everyone there is so amazing and friendly, even if they aren't your artist they will pop in to see how you are doing and chat if they are in the building too. I have gotten custom and flash designs from Amber R. and custom from Kinsey and I love all 11 of them!“

“If you’re looking for an American traditional tattoo artist, I can’t recommend Eddie enough. He makes you feel comfortable right away—he’s easy to talk to, respectful, patient, and never rushes you.

What stands out most is his honesty and craftsmanship. Eddie is upfront about what will work best for placement, skin tone, and longevity, and he genuinely cares about every tattoo he creates. His professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to quality make him one of the best.

Also want to note that I feel Eddie creates a safe respectful space for all walks of life including LGBT folks, women, neurodivergent folks, and all races.“

“the artists work fast and have some of the best styles I have seen! very affordable tats and warm fun environment“

“I had a wonderful experience with Stephanie when she was still tattooing in Richmond, VA. She really worked with me to design a beautiful piece and made the whole experience beautiful. I have 3 other tattoos from other artists but my experience with Stephanie was by FAR the best. I look forward to my next tattoo with her and continuing to get her art. Excited to visit her new space!“

“Great experience! Took me and my friend as a walk in last minute. Darryl was friendly and did such an amazing job. Will definitely go back!“

“I had the best experience getting my tiny tattoo done here! Tee was professional, kind, patient and took the time to listen to my ideas, and ensured the design was exactly what I wanted.
The studio was spotless and welcoming, which made me feel comfortable the whole time.
If you’re looking for someone who specializes in delicate, precise, and meaningful tiny tattoos, this is absolutely the artist to go to. I couldn’t be happier with my tattoos and will definitely be coming back for more.“

“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.“

“Best experience I’ve ever had in a tattoo shop! Everyone was super friendly and communicative, they got a second set of eyes on the stencil to make sure it looked right, and my tattoo turned out perfect. They gave clear aftercare instructions too. Can’t wait to come back 🤩“

“Ethan is awesome! I've gotten several tattoos from him over the past 2 years and he will be the person that will be finishing both of my dream sleeves! He's great at custom work and he has really awesome flash designs. He's fun to talk to and has a very impressive level of movie knowledge. The shop is clean and welcoming.“

“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.“

“Cute space, immaculate vibes, Geo and Emi are sweet angel babies. I couldn't recommend this place enough!“
