“I’ve been going to Blackwork for 3 years now, always tatted by Rob Van Hook and I’ve never been disappointed! The staff is incredibly kind, welcoming, and of course SUPER talented! I recommend this shop to every person I meet. ?“

“Went here for my first tattoo and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Clara was my artist and she did a great job and sketched my tattoo the exact way I wanted. I do think it was a little pricy for the sizing of my tattoo but other than that, I enjoyed coming here and would come in the future for more tattoos.“

“Got my belly button pierced here just a few days ago on a whim, and I wouldn’t have chosen anywhere else! Called 15 minutes before and they were able to take my cousin and I right away. I have only got my nose and ears done so I was a little nervous about the pain, but Mergo is a crowned jewel, so accommodating and created such a safe, comfortable space! Explained everything from anatomy to exactly what she’s gonna do, and proper aftercare. I also appreciated they start you off with balls on the navel bar instead of a jewel so it doesn’t tug on any clothes or get caught! I would definitely recommend, I hope the healing process goes well!“

“I’ve never been to this shop as I’m in South Carolina, HOWEVER, a few days ago I posted a video on TikTok looking for professional advice/opinions on a tattoo I got somewhere else (that turned out to be badly infected), and Rebecca promptly messaged me offering help.
She was very kind and if I’m ever in the area I might come by for some ink! Haha ?“

“Great tattoo shop. I’ve been coming here for all of my tattoos since they first opened. I have 7 tattoos from them plus one cover up. I also have gotten my permanent makeup eyebrows done. They keep everything really clean and the workers all really understand sterility. Great after care instructions. I get compliments on my tattoos very often. Everyone is very talented who works here.“

“Got my first last week, done by Wheel. It looks so amazing, definitely going back to him for a second. It was a pleasure meeting and working with him.“

“This is truly the most incredible, talented group of artists I’ve ever met. Every single person in the shop is not only gifted at their craft but also welcoming and genuine, which makes the whole experience something special. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and comfortable—you can feel the creative energy as soon as you walk in.

Nico and Anna, in particular, have spent hours with me, patiently planning, sketching, and refining designs until they’re absolutely perfect. Their dedication and artistry are on another level—the attention to detail, creativity, and care that goes into their work is unmatched. Each tattoo I’ve gotten here feels like a true piece of art that I’ll be proud to wear for life.

What I love most is how accommodating and kind everyone is. They make the process collaborative and personal, which really sets them apart from so many other shops. It’s not just about getting a tattoo—it’s about having an experience you’ll remember.

If you’re considering new ink, this is the place to come. You won’t find a more talented or supportive team anywhere. And if you do stop by, be sure to say hi to everyone for me!“

“Love this place, especially Amanda! She honestly is the best, always listens to what I want and gives her honest feedback. I wouldn’t go see anyone else, I highly recommend!“

“i haven’t even got a tattoo here, but the owner really struck me favorably for the 5 mins we spoke. stopped in the other day for a product he didnt end up carrying and he was really sweet abt it. definitely wouldnt think twice to get a tattoo here , but i have been warned it is “”pricey”” (im broke)“

“I had such an amazing experience for my first tattoo at Art in Motion. I was recommended my a great friend to Steve, who was my tattoo artist and is also the owner. First off, the shop is clean and super cozy and smelled great! I was nervous and I wanted someone good I could trust. I found that with Steve and his studio. I kind of knew what I wanted but unsure of where. Steve took his time and worked with me and was completely honest on placement of the kind of tattoo I wanted. You could tell he really enjoys and is good at his work and not out to just make money. He wants you to be happy. He was patient and explained every detail. He made me feel so comfortable. I’m extremely happy with my tattoo it looks great and would highly recommend if you are looked to get tatted, AIM and Steve are it!. I’m already thinking about my next one! Thank you Steve and AIM!“

“So I have been wanting a ankle bracelet tattoo with my children and grandchildrens names for so so many years. David a very talented artist talked to me about what i had in mind and designed the perfect ankle bracelet. Today at the age of 69 I checked that off my bucket list.
David was so nice. I was so nervous but he assured me I would do just fine. He made me feel so comfortable. We talked and got to know each other throughout the session. The results were amazing. I am in love with my new tattoo“

“I was searching for a fine line tattoo artist in the area and came across Madison’s Instagram page I instantly fell in love with her work. She’s incredibly friendly and attentive, and she did an amazing job covering up an old tattoo. It’s beautifully hidden without heavy shading, and the process was surprisingly painless. I’d definitely love to get more tattoos from her in the future!“

“This is my experience there. Chris is a nice guy. Speedy is the artist I did two of my tattoos with. He’s very professional and patient and was willing to work with me to make my idea come to reality. His prices are very reasonable compared to the other shops I look into. I recommend him.“
