Got a nostril piercing and I must say wow. Amazing service. Awesome little team working there. They make sure everything is triple clean and they treat their clients with the best care. Doesn't hurt a bit that they have a nurse on staff as well. Would come back and will be coming back for some ink for sure! Read Less

Great place to go. Everybody is awesome. Very pleasant environment. Artists are very thorough. Everyone is very willing to work around your schedule. Would definitely recommend this place. And would come back for more ink Read Less

Truly an amazing establishment. Very clean and the staff are very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. I had piercings done by Ben a month ago and the experience was a total cake walk. Crystal was very sweet and helped keep me distracted while Ben worked his magic. The piercings are healing wonderfully and now I'm bringing friends of mine from across the state in for tattoos in a couple weeks and we are so excited! I highly recommend Island City Ink to everyone :) Read Less

Loved the team! They were very down to earth and sweet. Very clean environment one of the cleanest I've been in. They make sure you have no questions and answer any that you do have. Would definitely recommend. Read Less

Very pleasant experience! They are willing to help you, not help themselves. Crystal tattooed my forearms exactly how I had pictured in my head! Both of the owners, Ben and Chrystal, put forth their day and effort to get me exactly what I wanted. Thank you! Read Less

Just yesterday I got a tattoo there (dark mark from Harry Potter) and got PERFECT service. I had fainted and one of the tattoo artists is a nurse and she helped me. We got the tattoo done in a half an hour. Perfect, solid, steady lines, light hand. VERY, VERY, VERY clean environment, the place I got my first tattoo wasn't even that clean. I will ALWAYS recommend Island City Ink!!!! My first choice from now on!!!!! Read Less

Clean and professional environment with personable and educated staff. Decided to get the tattoo I've been thinking about for months and was lucky enough to snag an appointment last minute. Not only were they able to read my mind and design exactly what I had pictured, they were able to give me an estimated time frame that was spot on. I was in and out and on my way to work in less than 2 hours. Before we even got started, Kristin was extremely informative and answered all my questions and concerns. Was able to chat AND perform the job at hand expertly. Clean, professional, and comfortable small town feel. Can't wait to heal up so I can show off my gorgeous new artwork. 10/10 will be returning and referring all 2 of my friends. Read Less

I have been to Island City Tattoo Parlor a couple of times. I have had a tattoo done by Crystal and was pierced by Ben. Considering the nature of my piercing, Ben was a true professional and did a great job. Crystal did a great job with my tattoo as well. I have very fair skin and she did a wonderful job utilizing the color to best work with my complexion. In addition, the atmosphere is very laid back and when you go in its like hanging out with friends. I very much enjoyed my experience and am looking forward to my next trip to Island City Ink.

I currently have 2 tattoos from island city and unless I move across the country, I have no intentions of getting a tattoo from any other parlor except them. The atmosphere is relaxing, the staff are pleasant, the conversations are always great, the pricing is fair, and most importantly...the work is fantastic!!! Read Less

I’ve waited a few days to write this, not sure how to word my experience with Island City Ink. I want to be fair, but honest. My friend and I had walked into Island City Ink and explained what we were looking for and scheduled our visit. We planned on doing this together, and scheduled our appointments accordingly. Friday at 1 p.m. I had wanted an existing tattoo added on to, and I was told that would be pretty easy… for my friend, it was her first tattoo. This review i...s two-fold, as my daughter and her friend also came along and her friend ended up getting her Septum pierced. So, in a nutshell… the art, the tattoos (so far, still healing) were pretty spot on. But based on the following, I will never go back. My friend and I got small tattoos.. nothing huge, or crazy. Our appointments were at 1 p.m. We actually had plans afterward, but that never happened as we were literally there from 1 p.m. - 7:15 p.m. Six plus hours, for two tattoos. We were told to send them pics of what we had in mind, and we did… but they did not look at them until we were there. I wholeheartedly thought that they would have had something drawn up for us when we got there.. but no, there was no plan. We were told that our transfer image they put on our skin had to dry at least 30 min, which is crazy… as I have had a tattoo before, and that’s not how it happened. So again.. fine, 30 min to dry… but why we were there for 6 plus hours, yawning in the back… giddy cause we were just plain tired and wanted to go home. Not a good experience at all. I will also add that this only added fuel to my fire. I forgot about my $20 deposit… so taking that into consideration, I ended up giving Crystal a $70 tip, only for her to be very rude to me at the end, as she was not happy that I took a pic of my friend’s tattoo (that she could not see, as it was on her back) when it was a little red, and I then showed my friend her new tattoo. Crystal was like, “Well, that’s not the kind of response I like to hear” (talking about what my friend had to say about her new tattoo) and she blamed it on my taking a pic when it was red. I offered to then take another pic, when it wasn’t so red and she proceeded to tell me it was too late, I ruined it. So, wow…. whatever. Lastly, My daughter’s best friend got her septum pierced. She paid $70… now I will say the gentleman that pierced her was the best part of the operation, he was kind and nice… but her experience was not good. He ended up piercing her twice and he explained that the septum is tricky… so I gave him the benefit of the doubt, but after we left, both girls said that when he lined everything up he was completely fine, but when he went to do the actual piercing, he was literally shaking like crazy, and guess what, the piercing is crooked. So, with all this said… my next appt will not be here, I do not care if I have to be put on a waiting list somewhere else. See More Read Less

Super fun day of tattoos with friends! Crystal was extremely thorough in making sure we were really happy with our designs before she even touched our skin! Staff was really nice, place was super clean! Talent was spot on!! Thanks!! Will return for my next two. 😊 -Angela Verwey Read Less

I had a great experience here. Heard from a friend about this place. They where able to squeeze me in on Friday without appointment. Their art work is awesome. I like that they work as unit helping each other on their art and customers. I'll will back for my next tattoo. Read Less

Last Summer I went to Haiti on a mission trip when I got home I wanted a tattoo to help remind me to pray for the orphans there and one was created for me at this parlor ...a wooden cross with a Haitian style butterfly on top of it that I had explained and it's beautiful thank you so much Read Less
