Celebrity Ink Melbourne Central: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Very satisfied. Will def use their service again
Negative experience: I have been a client with celebrity ink and was there was my third visit today (my first 2 experiences were great) only to have the most horrible experience with the so called 'manager' who seem to be ambiguous and not transparent with pricing as well and contradicted the pricing information he shared with me at the time of making the appointment and paying the deposit including information shared over a phone call. The artist Bella was great.
Thanks so much Suhliang! It was a pleasure having you in studio
Negative experience: worst tattoo in Melbourne i reckon , I have to wait more than 2 hours for the appointment time suppose to be started at 3:30 pm and finally started at 5:30pm the deal was $1100 for 6 hours , at around 9:30pm the artist said he is going home soon , so he cannot provide 6 hours service but fee has been paid , really awful experience:(
Fantastic experience: I had such a lovely experience at Celebrity Ink Melbourne Central. The whole team was super lovely, warm, and friendly! Tyler at the front desk was especially helpful and kept checking in to make sure I was okay, offering water and lollies throughout. Holly, my artist, was absolutely incredible! She was lovely, organised, professional, and really took the time to listen to what I wanted. Her attention to detail was amazing, and she executed the piece beautifully. I struggle to sit still, but she was so kind and accommodating—offering breaks, getting a heater, and being really patient. Highly recommend this studio, and especially Holly—she’s talented, thoughtful, and made the whole experience so comfortable. Thank you so much for the beautiful piece Holly!
Hi Cindy!
We will pass this feedback onto Holly, it will mean so much! The tattoo turned out 10/10. We are happy you had the best time in studio and we hope to see you back for your next one soon
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review :)
-Thanks
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience at Celebrity Ink Melb Central. The vibes were immaculate, the atmosphere was warm/welcoming and my artist, Choppy, was great fun and did an amazing job of my Stitch & Scrump coloured tattoo! They were able to work within my budget yet I still got an amazing piece of artwork! So incredibly happy with my experience!!
Thanks so much for the awesome review! We’re so glad you loved the vibes, your tattoo, and your experience with Choppy — they’ll be thrilled to hear it. Can’t wait to see you back for your next piece!
-Thanks
Fantastic experience: Had a tattoo here done with Jake and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Jake was super friendly and efficient with mine and my cousins walk in tattoos. The process was amazing and I would definitely come back to Jake for another tattoo. Thank you so much!
Hi Kiah!
This is such amazing feedback! Jake is the best and we are so glad you had a great experience with him!
Hope to see you back for another tattoo soon!
Thanks,
Melb C
Fantastic experience: Service here at Celebrity ink Melbourne Central is 10/10! currently on holidays from QLD & booked us in perfect with our schedule of spending time here.

Hi Cam!
Appreciate you guys coming in, had a blast and lots of laugh with you guys in studio
Enjoy your time in Melbourne and we shall see ya next time
Thankssss
Fantastic experience: Getting my first tattoo here was a very stress free experience, pre booking an appointment was short and easy, the lady whom i spoke to both online and in person was incredibly helpful and very kind. The tattoo itself turned out exactly how I wanted with artist Gülce taking proper hygiene precautions in preparations of her equipment.
Hi Raadz,
We loved how your tattoo turned out, thanks for trusting us with your first! We hope to see you back soon :)
Thanksss so much :)
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Celebrity Ink. They made me feel very comfortable and carlos was super professional. Definitely going back again soon. Thank you guys !
Hi!
Thanks for the amazing review, your tattoo looks great! Appreciate all your support :)
Fantastic experience: My niece and I came here for two tattoos of different styles, both by the same artist - Nes. Absolutely phenomenal work, not only did she finish my tattoo in extraordinary time but she analysed my previous work to figure out which needle to choose so as to ensure they didn’t look out of place and could match. Once finished she offered additional detailing so it could further match my other old tattoo. She was very attentive to our pain levels and so easy to talk to. 10/10 highly recommend both the studio and specially Nes. Much love!!
Fantastic experience: These guy's are awesome. Sarah at reception is very accommodating and works with you to help find your desired result. I will definitely be going back.
Hi Simon! Always a pleasure to have you in studio, thanks for taking the time to leave this review! We will see you in a few weeks :)
Negative experience: This place charges $250 for a 3cm tattoo, consisting of 2 letters. Ripping everyone off. That is what my daughter paid. At any decent tattoo shop, there's a minimum (usually about $100), and any tattoo that small would only be charged the minimum. Shame on you. Be more decent.
Hi Rebbecka, every shop prices differently which is common knowledge. Your daughter was given a quote before we start, if the price isn't within budget that is more than ok, you're welcome to look somewhere else however your daughter agreed. Tattoos are a life long purchase, we have high quality artists and use high quality supplies. If for future you wish to go to a 'cheaper' place let us know before you book. Thanks :)
Fantastic experience: Greatest service, quick reply’s. Excellent at communicating. Lovely staff and easy to talk to. Very helpful and understanding, it’s absolutely wonderful, will be definitely coming back
We always appreciate the time our clients take to leave reviews, thank you so much! We hope to see you again soon for another tattoo Mr. Todem Pickle Pants ;)
Fantastic experience: I juss love this place. I have already got 5 tattoos from n about to get one more on the coming weeks. All their tattoo artists are juss amazing. The hygiene is commendable too.
Hi Aparna,
We love having you in studio, thanks for taking the time to leave the review and we will see you soon! :)
Fantastic experience: This is only my 2nd tattoo, first time with JC, first time at Celebrity Ink Melbourne Central and all I can say is Wow! Fantastic customer service, friendly vibes thoughout the studio, I'd also like to especially praise JC, his micro realism skill is evident and second to none. I've had so many compliments about how amazing and detailed my piece is that others are also asking who and where JC inks from, his skill level speaks for himself. Not only was my tattoo ace but JC's communication and people skills were exceptional, he was easy to chat too and happy to listen, and could hold a conversation, my experience while getting inked was so fun and easy going, my full day session felt short, quick and surprisingly painless for what i got, the whole process from start to end was extremely enjoyable. 100% recommend this place and JC as an artist. I'll definitely be back for my next tattoo.
Hi, thanks so much for this amazing feedback! We will pass this on to JC, he had a great time with you in studio and we look forward to having you back soon! :)
Fantastic experience: Felt so comfortable from the moment I walked it. The atmosphere and vibe was great and greeted so quickly from reception. I was able to discuss a design so quickly, and get booked in for later that day. All staff were so nice and didn’t make me feel weird being new to tattoos (this was my first). They were very supportive prior to sitting in the chair as I was a little nervous and was offered water. I was able to be calm throughout the entire process, staff checked in often to make sure I was feeling ok. Gulce was amazing!!! The whole session felt so gentle and calm. She often cleaned my arm completely and was diligent in keeping the area sterile and clean. The final result turned out amazing and so happy with it. So perfect. Definitely recommend 100%.
It was such a pleasure having you in studio, hope you and your mum had a great time at the AO! :)
Negative experience: Incredibly disappointed, came from New Zealand because of the reputation and renown of the "Celebrity Ink" name only to be met with a closed shop when I had a scheduled consultation. Was not informed of any change or the like. Extremely disappointed at the unprofessionalism. Would give -5 stars if possible
Fantastic experience: I have my 1st tattoo with Bella at 12:30pm today. She listened to what I want and made my dream come true. Love my first tattoo and straight away booked my 2nd tattoo at 3:30pm with Bella again. The manager (Sarah) perform fabulous service during the process. Thanks a lot to Bella and Sarah.
Fantastic experience: Worth every dollar. Bella gave an even better tattoo than the picture and added some great detail. They exceeded all expectations and great service, will definitely go back.
Thank you so much for the kind review! We can't wait to see you back in the studio ;)
Negative experience: If you want a quality experience... never come to this place!! I've had a horrific experience. I had a beautiful tattoo done in celebrity ink Chaing Mai and set up the touch up at celebrity ink Melbourne Central. The tattoo artist absolutely butchered a perfect tattoo. She even ran the tattoo gun along my arm and created a line of dots and just pretended it was no issue. I was very disappointed and spoke to the the owner to come in and speak to another artist... during that meeting the artist I met was lovely and agreed that the things I was mentioning on the tattoo were quite bad and then this lady at reception kept interrupting him and saying it looked fine to her and not letting the artist talk at all. She ended up getting me to leave, saying there was nothing wrong with it even though the timid artist agreed with me. Lastly, they offered to do a cover-up that would double the size of the tattoo area and ruin my sticker arm. Essentially... offering to ruin my arm more and having a really bad attitude about it. Disgusting customer service and horrible work from their "senior" artists. Do yourself a favour and don't come here! I had to end up getting the whole tattoo lasered off ... costing me an extra $1500.
Hi Beth,
Looks like this all occurred in July, we do apologise you weren't satisfied with the experience you had, we pride ourselves on our quality and customer service.
All the best and thanks for your time leaving this review, we take everything on board :)
-Team Melb Central
Positive experience: Love the work. Great Tattoos and atmosphere. Will be back. Iggy is a great tattooist **Update:** I returned for a second tattoo, but unfortunately, the experience fell short this time. There seemed to be a miscommunication between the receptionist and the artist, which resulted in the details of my tattoo not being properly conveyed. I didn’t get the opportunity to sit down with the artist to confirm exactly what I wanted, and the process felt rushed. When I was there the artist didn't listen again to what I wanted and just tried to push me through. They blocked out a small window of time, which wasn’t enough to complete the full tattoo, leaving it unfinished. This not only requires me to spend more money but also forces me to come back again to finish the piece. I wasn't able to pull out of getting the tattoo as they refused to give me my deposit back. I will NOT be coming back another time Overall, an extremely disappointing experience.
Can you please let us know via Direct message which tattoo this was please, We cant find any tattoos under your name in the system? We would love to resolve this?
Fantastic experience: The staff were super amazing and accomodating with walk ins. I had Bella as an artist and she was really amazing with great eye for detail
Aw this so lovely to hear, hope to see you in studio for your next one! :)
Fantastic experience: One of the best tattoo experiences I've had! Everyone was super welcoming from the start, lovely lady at the front desk was so helpful in getting the process started with fonts and Akif, my artist was very attentive through the stencilling process, making sure the placement was perfect! The outcome is something I love and keep looking at with a smile! Thank you!
Was an absolute pleasure to have you in studio Caitie
Fantastic experience: Just want to say how amazing their customer service was. Holly gave us (sisters) such a good design, incorporating all the elements we wanted, and continuous checking in, including last minute changes to the design. We both felt very comfortable and the whole experience was fun. Very happy with the tattoos, and the service in general. It was a highlight of our trip to Melbourne. Thanks Holly!!
This is so great to hear, I will pass this onto Holly as well!
We are so glad you love your new ink and enjoyed your trip to Melbourne, we will see you next time :)
Fantastic experience: Whole process was amazing. I was able to explain my design and Bella took the time to make sure everything was perfect. 10/10 recommend.
Was so lovely to have you in Amanda! :)
Fantastic experience: Thank you so much to the team for giving my friends and I a perfect 1st tattoo experience. Everyone was super friendly and we are so happy with our cherries. We will definitely be back soon <3
We're so glad you loved them! Thank you for the lovely review!
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience, first time going somewhere new for a tattoo in half a decade and the staff were so welcoming and professional. The artist who worked on me was amazing and such an excellent line artist, very happy.
Thank you so much for your awesome review! We hope to see you back soon ;)
Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience with Bella from start to finish. She was very precise and made sure everything was perfect from the stencil check to the placement and to the tattoo. She did an amazing job. I’m happy with the way the tattoos have turned out.
Thanks for coming in again Yasmin, you are always a pleasure to have in studio! We will see you in the new year ;)
Fantastic experience: Had an absolutely wonderful experience getting a tattoo at Celebrity Ink Belconnen. From first enquiry to final tattoo it was truly an amazing experience. Jeddieve was my artist and I was blown away at how light handed he is, did not feel a thing, also awesome to chat away to. All the staff I encountered were equally as lovely Highly recommended CELEBRITY INK BELCONNEN and can not wait to return.
Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience at Celebrity Ink Melbourne Central. The artist was highly skilled, and the atmosphere was welcoming, resulting in a beautiful tattoo that I absolutely love!
Thank you very much Sonali, it was so lovely meeting you today! :)
Fantastic experience: Got my first tattoo done here about 3 weeks ago, loved the experience ! I came for a walk in, front counter staff were so helpful and friendly, artist was very nice, did a great job and made my first tattoo experience one i can look back on happily! So excited to come back for more :)
Thank you so much for this amazing feedback Aeda, we can't wait to have you back in studio! :))
Fantastic experience: Holly is an absolute gem! Despite being a walk in, she provided fantastic service. The atmosphere was incredibly warm and welcoming, creating a supportive and relaxing experience. Amazing people - highly recommend!
Thanks Alisha!
Can't wait to have you back in studio, hope you and your brother had an awesome Melbourne trip! :)
Positive experience: Got my first tattoo done by Nes last month. It was a simple fine line and has turned out beautifully. I was taken to a back room for privacy, which was just as sparkly clean as the rest of the studio. Nes made sure to check that everything was going well through the whole thing, and was excited to be doing my first tattoo. My only negative was that the studio was very cramped with the amount of people waiting to be seen (at 2pm on a Friday) and thus there was nowhere except the floor to sit. I would definitely recommend going to see Nes, but maybe during a less busy time.
Hi Madeleine
Thank you so much for the feedback, so happy you love your new tattoo!
We will pass this feedback onto Nes, hope to see you back in studio soon! :)
Fantastic experience: The one and only Amazing artist Akif made my dream come true. Originally the piece was on a forearm but i wanted it to be on my outer arm and he made it work! Was greeted to the shop by two amazingly beautiful women, with great hospitality got me settled in and made sure i was taken care well especially with the amenities within the store itself! The hygiene of the place was off the charts especially with sanitising the station and changing the needles to practice safe procedures. I just only felt bad for moving abit too much during the tattoo cause my ass was hurting . The aftercare product they gave me was amazing and was helping with the healing process instantly. Since it was my first tattoo, I kept messaging them on Instagram, and they replied swiftly and cleared all my worries. Promised to my younger self i wouldnt get any tattoos but here we are and im worried i might get more. Either ways i will definitely come back here cause i know i will be in safe hands. Cheers to the amazing team of celebrityink Melbourne central!!!
We love this feedback, so glad you had an amazing experience with us! :)
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience at Celebrity Ink Melbourne Central. Holly, my tattoo artist understood exactly my vision and created a beautiful design with attention to detail especially for the fineline design and colours. Shout out to Sara, the studio manager who was super warm and welcoming and ensured I was comfortable throughout the process So glad to have had my first tattoo done here!
Hi Jayantika! We are so glad you had a wonderful experience in studio Super stoked to have done your first tattoo for you, and can’t wait to do more for you!
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience today. Fantastic service from the staff. Sergio did a perfect job on my tattoo’s. 10/10 would recommend
Fantastic experience: What an amazing experience at celebrity ink in at Melbourne central this morning. My tattoo artist Nes is an absolute gem! Fine line queen! I’ll be back for sure!
Fantastic experience: I had the most beautiful fine line tattoo done by Kris!! Such a beautiful and welcoming tattoo studio, everyone is so lovely and friendly and the artists are very talented ♥️
Negative experience: I don't know where to begin. The artists lack of hygienic process, the incorrect healing recommendations or the complete lack of empathy from the owner. The artist fitted the second skin without gloves after using his phone. The phone he touched during the tattooing without washing his hands. He told me to keep the skin on for 4 days. I tried to trust the artists recommendation but I had to take it off earlier because I saw the infection under it. It was sealed in the shop, there is no way i could be responsible for the infection and yet the owner took no responsibility for the infection or 2 days I've had to take off work. I told the owner I live 10 hours from the original shop, I didn't want them to do the touch up he offered because I know the reputation of the local studio. He didn't even apologise or offer any empathy until I asked him to. I'm on anti biotics and feel disgusting. Don't get me started on the pricing, this mess cost me 350 dollars for an hours work. No offer of refund or compensation for the pain or two days I've had to miss work. I'm deeply sad and don't know what to do. I don't want them touching me again. These pictures were taken AFTER the wound was cleaned by a nurse. You should of seen it before.
Fantastic experience: Akif did a great job and it’s my first tattoo . He made sure I’m comfortable with the pain and other process. It’s highly recommended to get tattoo here
Hi Kube, I will pass on this amazing feedback to Akif! We love to hear you're enjoying your new art :)
Fantastic experience: My friend and I got our first tattoos together here while on a little holiday. The staff were very helpful with answering our many questions. My artist did an incredible job considering I gave her such a detailed design. Couldn’t be happier with the result ☺️
Hi Harmony, thanks for this amazing feedback!
It was a pleasure and we hope to see you next time :)
Fantastic experience: Massive family of 6 came in to each get a tattoo. Staff were amazing with each one of us. Our artists Sergio and Kris did a great job on everyone's designs and Tara was amazing answering all our questions and keeping us entertained!!!
Thanks Caitlin, so happy you love your new ink and had a good time. Safe travels back to NSW and we will see ya next time ;)
Fantastic experience: I have had 3 tattoos done here. All 3 are beautiful. Furkan is a very talented tattoo artist who worked with me to refine my tattoo designs, and made me feel comfortable while creating exquisite tattoos. The place is clean, conveniently located and has a good vibe.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review Joy, We will be sure to pass on the kind words to Furkan, Enjoy your new ink and we hope to have you back in studio with us again soon.
Fantastic experience: I originally went in to get 2 scripts by Davor, he was absolutely amazing and even managed to fit in an extra tattoo. I then asked for another one while I was there and they were able to immediately fit me in with Nes, she was absolutely amazing and gave me exactly what I had imagined. Overall a wonderful experience
It was so lovely having you in studio with us Saraya- we always do our best to accomodate, and we hope you’re loving your new tattoos!
Fantastic experience: This is the 4th tattoo I've had at Celebrity Ink Melbourne Central, and I'd already enquired about my next one before I'd even left the studio! The staff are not like staff - they're friendly, funny, professional and offer the best advice. Kris my artist was phenomenal!! I'm never going to another tattooist again!!
Nothing motivates us more than reading a glowing review from a happy customer - so thank you! We’re over the moon you’re happy with your tattoo and we can’t wait for you to pop by and get your next tattoo sometime soon.
Fantastic experience: I walked in today and they were really lovely and helpful. They had an artist to talk to straight away and drew me up a design and got it done asap. Will go back again

Fantastic experience: From the beginning to the end, I had a fantastic experience with both the studio and Bella. Customer service was exceptional, as my first tattoo, everything was well explained and suited to my needs. Bella perfectly captured my vision for my tattoo and the finished product looked fantastic. Now a couple of days on from the tattoo, the beginning of the healing process has been very smooth and no complications. I was also really impressed by the price, the value was excellent.
Thanks Jayden, will be sure to pass on your feedback to Bella. We were so happy to have you in the studio and hope to see you again soon :) p.s. tatt is looking sick :D
Fantastic experience: As soon as I walked in everyone was so lovely and the customer was absolutely top tier the environment was so calm and I came in so nervous as it was my first tattoo but they spoke so positively and Chris was so gentle and precise. I’ll definitely be back!! Thankyou guys

Fantastic experience: Got my first tattoo done today and was absolutely stunned by how good it turned out. A lot of care was taken into how I wanted it done and the placement and I am super happy with it how it turned out. Will come back here for sure for more
Thanks for choosing us for your first tattoo Josh :) we are glad you loved the outcome as much as we do. See you again soon
Fantastic experience: Tara and the team were super responsive when I contacted them today about my tattoo request. I wanted it done today as there was a lot of meaning behind why it had to be today and that was all fine by them, which I was very excited about! When I went in I was warmly welcomed and the whole team was really incredible, so friendly and interested. Seriously such a great atmosphere! In terms of the tattoo, I was after a very meaningful drawing from my son, mirrored to my skin. It involved many fine lines and was very important it was exact, given the sentiment to the drawing so it had to include all the perfect little imperfections as part of the art, captured in time. Massive shout out to Sergio who worked on developing the drawing into a tattoo and ensured best possible placement before getting to work. Can I just say Sergio’s precision exceeded my expectations. My tattoo is literally a carbon copy of my son’s original drawing, it is perfect! Every little flick and pressure of the pen my son did at the time, is captured in my skin now. Forever. I couldn’t be more happy and I just know every time I look down at it for the rest of my life I will be filled with complete joy and love. Thank you ever so much Celebrity Ink! No other tattoo place compares! I’ll absolutely be back!! ❤️❤️
Thank you for your incredibly kind words Natalie. It was such a pleasure to have you in studio. We’ll be sure to pass your amazing words to Sergio.
Fantastic experience: Got my second tattoo here and the staff were amazing. From actually booking the session and making sure it was sorted to the tattoo itself the staff made everything super easy and comfortable throughout the whole process. Definitely recommend coming here if it's your 1st or 100th tattoo. Aurora was my artist and for my fineline tattoo she did an amazing job designing and actually doing the tattoo.
Hey Taylor! thanks so much for your review, we are glad you had an awesome experience and are super happy with your tattoo. I will pass on your kind words to Aurora.

Thanks Sheena ! we were so happy to have you guys in and thanks for your kind words. See you again soon

Fantastic experience: Aurora did my tattoo. Italian artist. She is super talented. I appreciated her service. Actually she did a great job. I would recommend her as best tattoo artist to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Bart was amazing, not only did he adjust the tattoo to my liking he also followed my budget and was extremely friendly. If I could give more stars I would. Staff was friendly and the atmosphere was so positive and welcoming, 5/5 would recommend to anyone who wants to get a tattoo. This was my first tattoo and the experience was amazing.

Thanks for the kind words Bec! Lovely having both of you in studio with us and your new tats are looking great :)
Fantastic experience: Beautiful communication across the team and social media, booked my appointment in on instagram and they were quick responsed, clear and honest and super helpful. Coming into the audio on the day of my tat was great, the person on the counter was lovely and helpful, making sure you’re comfortable. My tattoo artist was amazing as well. Ended up going simpler on the design on the day and she was understanding and accommodating as well. Overall will be going back to another one of their shops and specifically the Melbourne central one when I am back in the state as I am from SA
Hey Shania, thank you so much for coming by! Lovely having you in studio with us, and glad you had such a positive experience :)
Negative experience: "I strongly advise against it!!! They burned my skin! And did not respect the tattoo design! Furthermore, after contacting the manager, they took this lightly! After verifying with the doctor, the tattoo artist burned me at third degree! We are suing them!!! I strongly advise against it!!! Avoid at all costs!!!"
Fantastic experience: Celebrity Ink is excellent. I came over from Tassie and had emailed them using the online form through their website. It was my first tattoo and the questions the form asks are very supportive to get to know you. When the day arrived to get it done, I was quick to get sat down after completing another allergy form and got to work. This was my first tattoo and the staff were super friendly and helpful. The final price aligned perfectly with the online quote I got. Overall, I was in and out within 45 minutes. I can’t wait to go back for my next one when I’m over again.

Heyy Rebeeca,
We are happy to hear that you had an amazing experience here at celebrity ink, And that you chose us for your tattoo and we look forward to seeing you again.
Negative experience: Nicole botched my tatt. I dmmed about the issue and got the worst customer service with no empathy or willingness to fix the problem. Told them I didn’t trust Nicole to fix it later and so it was a pain to get them to agree to get someone else to fix it- in the end I lost my trust completely and have decided to go somewhere else to get it fixed and would rather pay someone who’s actually qualified and equipped with a STEADY hand.
Fantastic experience: First time getting a tattoo done today and Furkan was incredible at the Melbourne Central store! Super attentive and takes pride in his work making sure the piece is perfect before you walk out the door. The rest of the staff are super friendly and genuine also, would definitely trust any one of them in the future! Definitely coming back and cant wait for my next one. Cheers

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience at Celebrity Ink! I just wanted to get a small tattoo with a friend, we were thinking a walk-in, and contacted Celebrity Ink Melb Central over Facebook. We received a response within a matter of minutes and ended up discussing our ideas in more detail than we had expected and even ended up getting two tattoos each! We were taken such good care of once we arrived, our artist even stayed behind after hours to finish up our tattoos. My tattoos are now roughly 2 weeks old and they have healed better than any tattoo I ever got (and I got a couple)! No itching, minimal flaking, I honestly couldn't be happier! Honestly exceeded our expectations. We had our appointment at Melb Central on Jan 28 at 4 pm (Nadja & Emily), so please pass on our thanks to our artist (unfortunately didn't catch her name) and the receptionist!
Hi Nadja,
we are so happy to hear that you are pleased with the tattoo outcome and the work from the artist thank you for choosing Celebrity Ink and we look forward to seeing you again :)
Fantastic experience: We were just traveling through and they were able to take us in as a walk in! Great people and great atmosphere. My husband and I love our tattoos!
Thanks so much for dropping by Taylor! It was so lovely having you both in studio
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, friendly staff that are very professional and great at what they do. Will definitely be using them again. Had my second visit today, exactly a year after the first. Gulce was absolutely amazing, I am so in love with what she created for me.
Hi Corali, we love to receive these kind of reviews. Will be sure to pass on to the team.
Fantastic experience: Gulce is a beautiful artist. She communicated well and was gentle. Minuki was great with the suggestions and helpful with the decision process. Very soft spoken. Highly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place. Rhi at main desk is so easy going and happy to acknowledge any of your request . It’ll be a shame to see her go she’s a good chick! I had ink done by Aurora to which she was so patient with tattoo placement and getting everything just right. Overall great experience and will be back for more
