My sister, niece and I stumbled upon Classic Ink while visiting another sister in Bradenton. We were wanting to get tattoos for my nieces graduation, which would be our first tattoo. We had a not so great experience at a very well known establishment in Tampa so tried our luck and walked in to Classic Ink spur of the moment. We were immediately greeted and felt so comfortable. We knew what we wanted but needed some help in making it look perfect. Jessica at Classic Ink was exactly the experience we wanted. We were helped until we Loved the art work, we were told what to expect, and it was just the most comfortable environment for first timers! When we came back for our appointment, again it was the best experience. Our tattoo artists were so nice, patient, and professional. Our tattoos came out so great! We are leaving here knowing we will come back if we ever want another tattoo! Best experience we could have asked for. Thank you Jessica.

Lee Wright is AWESOME! I have been looking for a tattoo artist for quite some time to do a significant amount of work for me. When I first came into the studio, the crew made me feel welcome immediately which was the first bonus. I made an appointment with Lee (after viewing his portfolio) for my dogs paw print. I was so happy with his professionalism, enthusiasm, and overall disposition I decided to move forward with him to begin work on my arm sleeve. Ive been seeing him now for almost three months and I have to say that each time I am more impressed. His work is always exceptional and he consistently checks to see if I am comfortable which is cool. He also is a great conversationalist which is nice during long periods in the chair :-). Im really happy I met him, hes a good guy. Life long customer!!

From the moment I walked through the door I felt that I was welcome. I made an appointment for a tattoo the following day. My artist was ready and waiting with a beautiful design. I had a relaxing time during the tattoo process. My artist made small talk and I felt a connection with him. That made me feel at peace. I came in the next day regarding an industrial piercing. It wasnt what I expected. It was over and done within 10 seconds. The piercer was kind and gentle. All in all. I will continue to come to Classic Ink for all of my tattoo and piercings. They are the best in Bradenton, hands down!!! Megan Fischbach Bradenton Resident of 36 years. : )

Just came back for my 3rd and 4th tattoo with Lee Wright and he did amazing as always. I got my first tattoo at Classic Ink by Lee and he was very knowledgeable on how to do a tattoo on a first timer, since he could tell I was a little nervous. The shop is very clean, well lit, and all the artists are super friendly. Lee does great work and is able to do many different styles of tattoos which I love because all of the tattoos Ive gotten from him have been really different from coloring, to shading, to super straight lining, and todays script tattoos. Highly recommend Lee and all the other artists in the studio.

Classic Ink is an amazing shop with great artists. Gil Mallari just designed and tattooed an amazing chest piece for me. He is a grade A++++ top notch artist. Extremely personable and really cares about the quality of his work. He listens to every little thing you have to say regarding the tattoo and last minute ideas and changes. Nothing throws him off his game. I will be getting a lot more work done by him, and sending anyone i hear about wanting a tattoo his way. Out of the several artists I have used Gil is by far the best. Thanks for an awesome job brother.

My best friend of 26 years and I decided we were finally going to get best friend tattoos done while we were on vacation in Florida. We researched a few places and landed on Classic Ink as the place to go. The shop is fun, kid-friendly, with a great comic book selection too. The staff are personable, professional and totally non-judgmental about two nubes from Texas getting tattoos. Lee did our tattoos and made us feel very comfortable. His design exceeded our expectation. It is super cute! I am definitely happy with my first ever tattoo.

Very impressed. Great shop with a great staff. After doing sone research I chose Jessica Specht. Her tattoo work is great but what makes her exceptional is her formal artistic training and background. I wanted get seeved but had some existing tattoos that I wanted to include and make a cohesive theme....but had no clue how to do so. With very little direction from me, she created a great design. Could not be happier with her design and the amount of work that went into it. I will continue to use Jess and strongly recommend Classic Ink.

You walk in and everyone greets you. If you have a appt, you see your tattoo artist, or if youre getting a piercing then that person, and setup the logistics, and then they start. Very clean, and fun environment! I had a Winnie the Pooh tattoo done and it came out better than I could have hoped! I love this studio and the people there are awesome! They dont just ignor you, or make you feel like youre wasting their time. They are invested in your art piece and make sure it comes out better than you ever wanted. Great place, great people!

My experience was absolutely great, I got a brand new piercing at a really great price, and the fact that the female piercer Cathy is a nurse really put me at ease if I ever had to ask questions if my piercing got infected or started to worry me. During the piercing procedure Cathy answered the few questions I had and fully informed me as to what I would be facing actually having this piercing long term. Cathy was very professional and highly experienced and I would so recommend coming here if you are looking for a new piercing

So I had a old piercing in my ear that had closed up over time. I called and Ty was very nice at explaining the process and the difference between the gun and the surgical needle. I came right down and instantly felt at ease. The shop was organized and clean. All the staff was pleasant and sweet. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is afraid or nervous it was the BEST EXPERIENCE I have ever had getting a piercing. Thanks so much to Ty and I will definetly recommend this to all my friends:)

I have been here twice for piercings and i had a great experience both times!! I had Cathy both times and shes Awesome!!! I have gone to many places before for piercings and Cathy has been the only one who has made me feel very comfortable and she also is very informative, lets you know pros and cons before you make the ultimate decision. The place looks great and everything is sterilized and clean. I love it... Deff coming back for more piercings in the future and maybe even a tattoo!!!!! -Liss

Got a middle lower lip labret with Cathy, shes a nurse so thats awesome because she obviously is very knowledgeable, it was quick and (almost) painless, placed well, and I was given thorough after care instructions. Which honestly I did not follow perfectly, but even with having had a couple drinks my lip is hardly swollen at all! So thanks Cathy The missing star is because I feel the shop it self and friendly customer service could use a little work, but I will be back for any future piercings
