Expérience fantastique: Absolutely incredible shop and skilled artists… Just got my 12th piece from them. Each artist is super talented and a joy to hang out with. I won’t go anywhere else for tattoos. Collin (owner) has created a wonderful space full of beautiful art and talent.

Expérience fantastique: A great bunch of people, very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Big Thx. To Cameron Worne for the two new pieces. I’m more than happy with the work you did. Thx. Buddy.

Expérience fantastique: Friendly, Wonderful Ladies and Gentlemen. I've been in for a couple walk ins and Walked out Very Happy. I will be back for more

Expérience fantastique: 100% honest. I have never been more comfortable in any shop of any kind. The owner and staff (feels more like a family) might be some of the nicest people on the planet. On top of that they are passionate and professional about their work and it shows.

Expérience fantastique: No hidden surprises here. Clean, professional, talented and awesome people. I'm going here until they don't let me in anymore.

Expérience fantastique: Collin also took my tattoo virginity today and it was amazing! All the artists there are incredibly talented. Will be back to get one from each of them. Was also lucky enough to be there when Bill was and I support his nomination as customer service specialist Thanks again!

Expérience fantastique: Collin and Cam took my tattoo virginity today and it was amazing. Thanks so much for both these absolutely rad traditional pieces both you guys killed it. Will be back very soon for more..

Expérience fantastique: Amazing shop, amazing talented artists! I've had 7 tats done here so far and they look spectacular! Colin, the owner, did the last few for me and a very talented artist as are all the artists here. Thanks so.much! See you guys soon!!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve had multiple pieces done by both the owner Collin and one of his apprentices. This shop is amazing the work and talent as well as the over all environment. It’s a welcoming and safe place. I always recommend Collins shop when friends and family are looking for a new artist. Well worth the travel to get to the shop as I am not local!

Expérience fantastique: Hands down, the chillest tattoo shop! I've had the pleasure of being tattooed by 3 different artists in this shop, including the owner Colin; great experience every time! I keep going back because I know that I will get quality work done by A+ Artists.

Expérience fantastique: My wife and I have only gotten our tattoos here for the 6 months or so. Everyone is very welcoming and helps make whatever vision you have for a tattoo be the best it can be.

Expérience fantastique: I've gone to Collin at Artistic Roots for just over 2 years and he always nails the tattoo ideas I have. I've been about 5 times. The environment and conversation in the shop is always relaxed and chill. I've seen the work of some of the other artists aswell and honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them! Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Went and got my first tattoo with them and it was amazing! Everyone was so patient and encouraging. For my first one it was such a great experience!!

Expérience fantastique: Most of (all but one) of my tattoos are done by the team here. Been getting tattooed by Collin and the team since the home studio, and before Artistic Roots was even a thing, and I've always felt comfortable and welcome. The -one- time I had a tattoo mishap from an apprentice (knew what I was getting into) Collin offered to fix it up while I was there for another appointment and I've loved it ever since. This is a great shop with a great vibe. Can't wait for my next *Edited for name spelling!!! Sorry Collin lol

Expérience fantastique: Very inviting atmosphere at artistic roots. Always feel welcomed when we come to the shop. Working out of town makes it hard to book time slots, Collin practically bends over backwards to come in on his time off to help accommodate that. Between the wife and I we probably have 15-20 tattoos from Collin and love every single one. We will be back soon! Over and over again lol.

Expérience fantastique: Highly recommend Collin. I have been tattooed by him now a few times and it is always a great experience. Not only is his work beautiful and his hand light, but he is also just an all around kind, easy to talk to and funny guy. My first tattoo by him wasn’t planned, I had gone with a friend who was getting something by an apprentice of his. We got to talking about his work, he had a cancellation call while we were there and thus started our friendship. I now have 4 tattoos by him and a 5th planned for next month.

Expérience fantastique: Collin has done several of my tattoos over the years and it's always a positive experience. He is very talented and easy going. All of the artists here are kind and welcoming. Shop is clean and beautifully decorated with amazing art work. Can't wait to book again in the future.

Expérience fantastique: Hands down the best shop and artists I’ve ever had the pleasure of being tattooed by. I remember first going the second day they were open back in 2019 and they had/always will have the best atmosphere for a shop. I’ve been tattooed by three people who have worked there including the owner Collin and he is the absolute best. I always recommend him to everyone. I get so many compliments on the pieces he’s done! As long as artistic roots is open I will never ever go anywhere else.

Expérience fantastique: Artistic roots is hands down the best atmosphere, The artist are super friendly and welcoming. And the work is incredible I highly recommend checking them out!!

Expérience fantastique: Always a great time and amazing work

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely love it here!!! I’ve gotten so many pieces done by Tessa, and they’re all gorgeous! Love the atmosphere and everyone who works there!

Expérience fantastique: I got my first tattoo from Colin after my daughter recommended I go to him. I was 57 and super anxious and it ended up being such an amazing experience!! In less than 2 years I now have 12 - all done by Colin - amazing artist and person. Everyone in the shop is super friendly and the prices are great too!! Thanks Colin - I'll c u soon!

Expérience fantastique: Cute little shop with so much personality; the artists are talented & welcoming, like I was sitting with a group of friends I had known forever. Overall professional, respectful & the work of all the artists is amazing time and time again. 10/10 recommend this place to anyone and everyone! Can't wait for my next tattoo :D

Expérience fantastique: Collin is an Amazing artist, the shop feels like a home the second you walk in the door. I love his work and have multiple large tattoos by him. Highly recommend him and the people at his shop

Expérience fantastique: Collin has done tons of my tattoos and his work is unreal! All the staff are super friendly and talented!! I won’t go anywhere else !

Expérience fantastique: The owner has done the majority of my tattoos. Never disappoints. The work is amazing, everyone there is friendly and clean environment. I enjoy every visit and can not wait too return! Will continue to recommend them!

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely incredible experience both times that I’ve had the pleasure of being tattooed here! Collin has done all of my tattoos so far and I wouldn’t think to go anywhere else! Very accommodating making sure every tattoo is exactly what I envisioned and in the perfect position. Very gentle when tattooing and always checks in to see how you’re doing during the process. Great communication from the start of the process all the way to the end of the healing process. All of the staff I have encountered here are extremely friendly and create such a welcoming, home like environment. I recommend this tattoo shop every chance that I get! 1000/10

Expérience fantastique: Awesome shop with a great atmosphere (even better if you get lucky and I happen to be in the shop). Everyone who visits is also legit with the possible exception of Brad. If you go in to the shop make sure that you let the team know that you support my nomination for becoming their official customer service specialist.

Expérience fantastique: Honestly the coziest tattoo environment I've even been in. The shop was so accommodating to getting a walk-in and stayed late for us to get the tattoos we wanted. All of the artists do sick artwork. Couldn't recommend enough and will definitely be back. Thanks guys

Expérience fantastique: Had my first ever tattoo done at this place today, the friendliest place I have ever been in for anything. Liv is an amazing tattoo artist. She was quick and gentle and did an absolute stunning piece on my forearm. I can not recommend this place enough. If you're in the market for a tattoo and don't know where to go, go here. All the staff are super friendly and extremely helpful. And let's not forget that price. The price is absolutely amazing and fair. They don't overcharge like a lot of places do. I will definitely be going back for my 2nd tattoo.

Expérience fantastique: Hands down the best experience! I used to go downtown Toronto for my tats until I met Collin and Tessa. They’re very friendly, and make you feel comfortable during your tat session! && they’re very talented ! <3

Expérience fantastique: super nice people and great place!! clean and good atmosphere :) becca’s done 4 of my tattoos and a few of my boyfriends too and we looove her work!!!

Expérience fantastique: Chill people who love art, and want to make you happy! Ainsley has the best gnomes.

Expérience fantastique: Ainsley did my very first ever tattoo today and was absolutely awesome. She made sure I was good through the whole process took all the time I needed and did such a beautiful job. I will be back to see Ainsley for another one in the future.

Expérience fantastique: Could not be happier with my tattoo and had a great time getting it done, from design to finished product. Definitely will be back

Expérience fantastique: The whole team at artistic roots are so amazing, talented and welcoming, they have such a family vibe and there’s no other shop I’d rather be at then this one. Every artist there does spectacular work and I recommend everyone I know to go there. 10\10 NEVER disappointed and always looking forward to another visit!

Expérience fantastique: Artistic Roots tattoo is one of the absolute best environments you can be in. From the artists Collin, Becca, Ainsley and Tessa to the artwork on the wall you will not be disappointed with your choice to come to artistic roots. AMAZING CREW❤️❤️❤️ and not to mention the amazing work all of them do!!!!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing staff and great work, took an idea and make it exactly how I imagined it.

Expérience fantastique: Awesome little shop, all the artists are so talented and friendly. Nothing but good things to say :)

Expérience fantastique: I dare you to find a shop with better customer service and a kinder staff. Not to mention the quality of work, their passion to produce quality and unique work. A shop with fantastic artists and personalities that match. Today was my third tattoo and I’m certain I will be back again. Shout out to Ainsley, the prodigy, she dropped a beautiful mushroom on my leg today.

Expérience fantastique: I had such an amazing experience at Artistic Roots. Collin was extremely professional and his passion for his work was very evident. He took his time, checked in, allowed for breaks when needed and made sure that the sketches and placement were exactly how I wanted them. The shop itself was bright, clean and the atmosphere was very comforting. All of the artists were so friendly and made a point to welcome everyone that entered. Overall, this was the best experience I've had getting tattooed. I would highly recommend!

The studio is very clean plus the atmosphere and environment is very welcoming. Will definitely be planning to get another tattoo here! Thank you so much!

Expérience fantastique: Absolutely love this tattoo shop! Such down to earth artists every single one of them! Have had the honor of having Collin tattoo my hand and booking another tattoo right away! They take the time to get the artwork to your perfection, put the stencil in the perfect spot and even draw in some (depending on the location of the tattoo) to have it work with the flow of your body!! Definitely one of my #1 shops that I will be having ink me up!!

Expérience fantastique: My experience was amazing! The environment is very welcoming and also kept very clean. Collin did a stunning job on my tattoo and I will definitely be returning.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing artists and a good vibe. Perfect place to get your first or your 100th tattoo!!

Expérience fantastique: Best ppl eva. Been tatted by Collin and Kassi both do an amazing job. I send all my friends and family there.

Expérience fantastique: Artistic Roots has an amazing atmosphere. Collin and Kassidy are so friendly and they will always strive to make sure you feel at home. The shop is always kept clean and organized. Overall, an amazing place to be tattooed!

Expérience fantastique: I recently got a foot tattoo cover up done by Collin, after a strenuous search of trying to find a new artist in the durham Region. He did an excellent job and made a very painful and uncomfortable tattoo a very pleasant experience! I would definitely go back to him to get more work done

Expérience fantastique: Saw Collin and let me say this guy is amazing! Their shop is very clean and modern looking. Very comfortable atmosphere. He will work with you to pretty much get anything done you can think of! I have him doing my whole neck sleeve and this will be the tsttoo artist I believe I'll keep going too! Must go to! Best shop in durham and proces hands down!

Expérience fantastique: It's difficult finding a tattoo artist you trust and respect. Collin is wonderful, he takes your ideas and brings them to life. Both my tattoos from him have turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I will definitely be getting more ink from Collin. Great to see he has his own shop now and is living the dream :) 5/5 atmosphere.

Expérience fantastique: Extremely pleased with the end result! Comfortable environment. Definitely will be coming back.

Expérience fantastique: I recently got a very difficult and very detailed Maori armband from Collin. The level of details in my tattoo were so extreme that I was very skeptical of how it'll turn out, which showed up in our stencil itself which took almost an hour. The amount of effort Collin puts into his work and the efficiency of it is just commendable. I love how it looks after healing and I am amazed he could finish this in just one seating. Definitely getting the next from Artistic roots.

Expérience fantastique: Awesome little shop with a cozy vibe, and the owner was a really chill dude. My boyfriend loves the tattoo he got and we both will definitely be coming to Collin for more ink in the future! 10/10 Good experience!

Expérience fantastique: I saw Colin and had him finish my sleeve. I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Go there. You won’t be disappointed.

Expérience fantastique: I had such an amazing experience my tattoo is so beautiful Collin did such a wonderful job!!!!! Couldn’t be more happy with it!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

Expérience fantastique: The atmosphere there is amazing and the artists are even better! They put such dedication into all of their work and it truly shows off! I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for a nice and clean tattoo

Expérience fantastique: went in today and got some new work done by collin, definitely exceeded my expectations, he also finished up an older piece for me and again went over and above what i imagined. definitely reccomend him. positive environment and very clean and professional shop ✌

Expérience fantastique: Great place and even better people. Would definitely recommend. The artists are 100% professional and their work is incredible.

Expérience fantastique: I have recently gotten two amazing tattoos done by Collin (will be getting more). He is a very skilled artist, professional, and genuinely cares about his work and the comfort of his clients. The atmosphere in the shop is so inviting and comfortable. Everyone here is so friendly and talented. Definitely one of the best experiences I've had being tattooed and I would highly recommend that anyone interested in getting some ink done to check them out!

Expérience fantastique: Couldnt be happier with how my tattoos turn out every time. Collin and Kassidie go above and beyond time and time again. Cannot wait for them to create more amazing pieces!! Thank you so much for the amazing art and providing such an amazing tattoo experience!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing little shop that feels like home. The staff are professional, talented, and trusted. They all do amazing work! Prices are also very reasonable for the tattoos that they do!

Expérience fantastique: Wish I knew about this guy sooner, absolutely kills his art work, can't wait to go back!

Expérience fantastique: Gotten a few flowers done on my arm by Collin, I recently just went in for shading on these pieces as it's been about 6 months since we started. I am in love. I can't stop looking at my arm it's so great! The new shop is awesome, the staff is friendly and it's a clean environment. They really do care about the quality of your tattoo and you being comfortable during your session.

Expérience fantastique: Friendly and great art work, I've had collin do tattoos on me over the last couple years and I love the work! Also the price is decent and not too expensive. I recommend this shop for anyone looking to get a tattoo

Expérience fantastique: Words truly cannot express the care and passion Collin puts in to every tattoo. Today Collin spent almost 5 hours working on my arm. In my opinion this is a very difficult and detailed piece. Collin made me 100% confident that he could take on the tattoo with confidence so I got him to do it. Collin worked with me and re-worked his sketch several times to ensure my satisfaction at no extra cost. While tattooing Collin ensured I was comfortable the whole time and continuously offered me bottles of water and snacks to keep me going. We went out for a couple of smoke breaks during the tattoo whenever I wished. He is in no way cocky or ignorant which makes it very easy and comfortable to ask any questions or voice any concerns I might have. Needless to say I was very happy with his tattoo experience, shop cleanliness, and bed side manor. This is not my first tattoo so it is easy to see when a tattoo artist truly stands out. If you have any ideas about getting a tattoo done, do yourself a favour! Go to Artistic Roots is Oshawa so that you can truly have an experience worth mentioning and remembering.

Expérience fantastique: No brainer. Best shop Best artists.

Expérience fantastique: Hi guys! Highly recommending Collin for all your tattoo needs. Very clean lines, amazing script work and great with watercolors! He beat my expectations and completed an amazing piece on my forearm. Can't wait to get in to see you at your shop Collin, Congrats!
