I have got tattoos from Fort Lauderdale FL to London England and Marks of Distinction has been one of my favorite Tattoo Parlors. Relaxed environment, walk in welcome, they were quick to listen to what my ideas were and quickly sketched up amazing art from the broken and barely put together ideas I gave them. I would gladly recommend Marks of Distinction to anyone that asked and I will definitely be making more trips out to Willmington to go back for more work. Read Less

I had the pleasure of being tattooed by Josh for my first time at this shop. I have gotten tattoos in Wilmington before but Josh was a step above! His line work and attention to detail was superb. I will definitely be back to get ink from him again! Read Less

Jon is the GOAT! The shop has down-to-earth professionals who are HIGHLY SKILLED and HUMBLE. I saw the amazing work Jon tattooed on one of my close buddies and was interested in having some of his work on my skin, so I gave him a shout and he went out of his way to fit me into his schedule. My wife and I both had a great time hanging out and getting tattooed for the night. If you’re looking for someone who’s been in the tattoo business, knows what there doing, PROFESSIONAL and TRULY treat you like family, then Marks of Distinction is what you’re looking for. I appreciate the time, effort and friendship made after the amazing work and I will definitely be down again! Read Less

All of the guys here are super friendly and educated. I personally saw Kurt and he did an amazing job on an anchor tattoo for myself and a custom compass for my husband. I would highly recommend anyone to come check this place out. You can definitely tell Kurt truly cares about his art and goes above and beyond. We will definitely be back! Read Less

Love the shop and it’s probably the first shop I’ve been to were the artist doesn’t take a smoke break every 30 mins. Jons a great guy and will work with you. Not going to another tattoo shop anytime soon, if you’re looking to get some good work done for a good price go check them out. Read Less

Absolutely blown away by my ink by Jonathan. The shop is clean, relaxing and friendly. The creativity is insane. And the execution is impeccable. True artists! I can not say enough about this shop....I HIGHLY recommend! I will definitely be back for my next one. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Read Less

Clean, professional, and personable. Kurt (my family) did my ink, but John, artist and owner, and Josh the third house artisan, are very friendly as well. They all show genuine interest in each client. Read Less

Kurt Gardner does my tattoos. I have many tattoos and he is the best tattoo artist I've ever had. Very detailed work, and great shading. He will draw up exactly what you want and you won't be disappointed . The tattoo shop is clean and kept up nicely. Read Less

Jonathan always employs some of the best tattooers in the region. There is a reason MOD has been in business longer than any other shop in town. I'd recommend for anyone whether they're looking for their first tattoo or a seasoned collector. Read Less

Jonathan is awesome! I don't get tattoos very often five in the last 10 yrs. Jonathan has done them all, when I got my white one 8 yrs ago he suggested that since I'm pale as a ghost that I go with another color. Saturday he was surprised to see that it's still there doing fine, did I mention that he is awesome! Two months ago I decided that I HAD to have a tat 9/17/16 of course every time I planned on stopping by something happened. When I finally made it there he was bo...oked solid on that date, all I wanted was how my boyfriend always signed his letters to me. Saturday made 18 weeks since my boyfriend died in a car accident as well as our 5 yr anniversary. I probably shouldn't be posting this but he worked me in because of the importance of the date. His work as usual is exactly what I wanted, he even helped me pick the color. Everyone that has seen it love it and most comment how much they like the color. I can't say enough good things about this place, because of the importance of sanitation it actually took longer for him to set up than to do my simple tattoo. Jonathan, I can't express how much I appreciate your help in helping me memorialize Larry as well as helping me take a step forward with my life. Afficher la suite Read Less

This is the place to go and Jonathan is your guy to see! I had a couple of Tattoos done by him years ago and loved them! I recently had him work on one done somewhere else that I was not happy with. I went from something that was "eh" to something beautiful because of his vision. I feel happy now when I look down at my tattoo! Read Less

My sister And I had a great experience at marks of distinction...big shout out to Josh for putting up with me and my squirming ass...I could not be happier with my blue jay in flight and the way it makes me remember my Mimi:) I highly recommend this one of a kind parlor! Till next time... Read Less

Seagh tries to make you sound like an idiot with the tattoo you want to get and tries to tell you what tat to get. Don't go to this guy unless you wanna "keep it SUPER traditional" meaning no outside ideas. It's what he wants or you won't get it so screw that. I'm pretty sure he can only draw directly from pics so unless you got an exact copy of what you want you're screwed.Read Less

Did a late-night walk in with Josh. He and the other artist in the building at the time were very down to earth and professional, and for something that he drew up on the spot, Josh's work was definitely very very impressive. Will be making the trip from raleigh to wilmington in the future for more work, this is the best healing tattoo i've ever had. Read Less

By far the best, the friendliest and the CLEANEST tattoo shop in town! The owner, Jonathan, is very dedicated to his art and will do his best to ink your dream design. I recommend this shop to anyone who's thinking about getting inked. The shop looks great and he is very clean (and does not have the bad attitude that other tattoo artists have...). Go see him!
