Petey is great, place is awesome. They have a great vibe. Petey has always listened and given me expert advice, even talked me out of a few ideas that weren't the greatest. Everyone loves the artwork on my arm. It's the only place I recommend for 'ink'!
About The Historic Custom Tattoo est.1984
The Historic Custom Tattoo est.1984 is an outstanding traditional no-BS shop with a great vibe and an awesome, super cool atmosphere. The staff is super professional and extremely talented. They offer the best selection of flash and a group of very talented in-house tattooers to make non-flash ideas come to life. The shop has super clean surfaces and procedures for a healthy environment. It is highly recommended and the only place recommended for ink. If local or passing through the area, this place is worth a detour and a paying visit for quality tattoo work.
Reviews
This shop is filled with heavy hitters. Easily one of the best places to get tattooed in the Tri-State area. Every square inch of the walls and ceiling is covered in awesome unique flash from some of the best artists out there, so even walking around the shop is an experience.
I’ve been tattooed by Sam and Zack, my wife has been tattooed by Sheila, and my friend has a piece from TJ that is honestly one of the coolest tattoos I’ve ever seen. With that many talented artists under one roof, you really can’t go wrong with anyone here. Absolutely love this shop and can’t recommend it enough.
I was freaking blessed to receive the most beautiful, glorious tattoo by Petey. It was a cathartic experience. I recommend this place with all the love in my heart. Worth every penny and then some!!!
