I just got home from getting the greatest tattoo that I could have imagined. Jerry Innes is the artist who put ink to skin. It's my 2nd tattoo and I went big this time. Jerry worked on me non stop for 5 hours and it is fantastic.
Not only is he one of the most sought after tattoo artists around, he's also an incredibly nice man. I enjoyed our conversation and getting to know him just about as much as my tattoo. Thank you Jerry! I'll be back. Read Less

I've been tattooed at 10 different shops throughout the country and on the island of Okinawa. Hands down the best place I've ever been is stinky monkey. The whole process from making an appointment, dealing with the artists, and the work itself is nothing short of incredible. I was beyond impressed with how clean the shop was and how nice they were. This is the only shop I will get tattooed at from now on. Read Less

First, and most important to me when visiting any tattoo shop is to see if it's clean, and Stinky Monkey is nice and clean. We interacted with Tony, Amanda, and another artist doing a guest spot. They were all pleasant and fun to be around. The shop has a great atmosphere with cool art on the walls by in house artists as well as others.All of the tattoos I've seen come out of that shop are great quality, and I highly recommend checking them out. You always want to do research to ensure the artist you choose fits the style of what you're looking for, but I'm sure they would be more tha helpful in aligning you with the right person.This is a great place to go for high quality custom tattoo work and I highly recommend it if you're in the area or plan to be.

I've had a few tattoos already that can easily be concealed but when I decided to get some work done on my arm I wanted the very best. I researched every shop online and booked with Jerry. He did an amazing job, line work is so clean and colors so vibrant. He can do any style. That was three years ago and I've since been back maybe 8 times for pieces big and small. I LOVE his work and I'll be back for more. HIGHLY recommend him!!! Read Less

I will begin my review by saying I am not tattoo virgin. I have several that I have collected from all over the place throughout the years. I kept hearing this name pop up. Stinky Monkey, how can you forget that name. I finally stopped in and set up an appointment. The wait is a couple of months but well worth the time. So my tattoo date finally arrives. I am not one that gets easily blown away, it takes a lot to impress me. I was blown away by the work! The color is vibrant and pops! The outline work has a thick solid line. All the line work is neat and clean. Tony is beyond talented. He was fun to be worked on by and I enjoyed everyone in the shop. The shop is super clean and everyone is easy going. I can not stop gazing down at my new piece. The only thing I am bummed about is some of my other tattoos now look crappy because this one is so amazing! I can not wait for my next appointment!

You want a tattoo. You know you do. And now you also know the place to go get one is Stinky Monkey Tattoos down in Kingston. These guys are cool, but not so cool that they make you feel lame for not being as cool as them. Their studio is bright and spotless, but don't worry, it doesn't feel like a doctor's office. It's the kind of place at which you won't mind being stuck by a needle a million times. They're total pros, and real artists. They do mostly custom stuff, and have months long waiting lists. When I got my first tattoo, I didn't know that, and called up last minute when an out-of-country friend was visiting. Thankfully they had a cancellation and were able to squeeze us in that afternoon. Now I'm planning my next tattoos, and I'm totally going back. Dean rocked my first one out of the park, and I'm confident he'll design my upcoming armbands to perfection. Read Less
