I've been dreaming about my leg piece for years and Jason totally NAILED it. I am so beyond happy and it's not even done yet! He was very professional and made me laugh through the whole appointment. I would highly recommend. Thanks so much. Read Less

Jay did my first tattoo almost 4 years ago now, it was a lucky care bear and his colours are still so vibrant I loved working with him. For my first tattoo I was super nervous but he was great! He's done two of my tattoos so far and I'm a repeat client for sure! Curt did my shoulder piece last year and my friends puzzle piece maple leaf and his lines are so clean I love his work! Now I have a problem deciding who to go to for my next tattoo! :) Both these guys are amazing and I just wanted to put that out there. :) I highly recommend Black Rose to all my friends! The only people I'll ever trust with my skin! Read Less

I was in yesterday with my oldest daughter to get "matching" tattoos...I have known curt for many years and felt comfortable going to him...We were both tattoo virgins lol...Won't lie... Some it was painful in some spots...But so Completely worth it...We are both extremely happy and want to come back for more...U rocked it Curt! Thanku sooo much xo Read Less

I got my very first tattoo done by Curt. He was very helpful and came up with a great sketch for my idea. I was very pleased 14 years ago and they have only progressed as a business, artists and individuals. Curt has done the majority of the work on both my sleeves and I will be going back soon for more work. I recommend this shop to everyone. Thanks guys. Read Less

Got my first tattoo here, loved the lines, details and dynamite shading curt laid into it. Ended up back here for a chest piece and sleeve! Always friendly, professional and accomodating. I've spent 18 hours sitting in this place and would gladly do more based on the quality of work and service i've recieved, what more could you ask for? Check it out Read Less

Over the last 10 years I have had 4 pieces all done by Jason. I will never get my work from any other artist, as the bond and understanding he has with me cannot be explained. I love his attention to detail, and how he can work under pressure with a smile on his face. He is an amazing business man, and knows this industry! I highly recommend Black Rose Tattoo! Read Less

I only have one tattoo - It took me about 50 years to finally decide on it and I went over the design with Jason several times. His patience and dedication to his art was awesome and inspiring. I'm very happy with my tat, especially with how Jason made it look almost 3 dimensional. I have recommended Jason and his skills to my friends and several have come up to Courtenay for their own pieces of art. Someday I may want another piece done and there's only one person I'd trust with my skin. Read Less

Most professional and artistic tattoo shop North Island! Amazing artists and tattoos. The tattoos I have had done were done extremely well and timely.. costing me a very reasonable price for such exceptional work. I am a very picky girl and I am very happy to recommend this place! Read Less

Awesome!! I have seen Jason for several pieces over the years and have never been disappointed. The staff is always helpful and friendly, and we have only had good experiences. I've been at several shops and they are by far my fave on the island! Read Less

Not only did Jay give me my first and favorite tattoo, he also introduced me to a lot of amazing bands while I sat with him. One of the only artists I know who you can come in and give him an idea and he will come up with something that completely suits what you want based on what he knows about you. There have been 2 times that I've gone to him with a very vague description I.e. "death holding an hour glass" or tarot cards and he blew me away with what he came up with. Highly recommend Read Less

Had my second tattoo done by Jason. Both are very well done tattoos. First one didn't need a touch up. Second one needed a bit, my fault though. He touched it up no problem, no charge. Great shop to deal with. Only problem is I can't think of another tattoo to do. When I do, I will be going straight back to Jason. Thanks guys! Read Less
