Ive had my first tattoos done at a very popular well known place. (not going to mention names). I had my last couple done at Dark Child Tattoo. Now i will ONLY go here. The artists that own this Tattoo shop are most definitely the definition of Artists. The people there are very down to earth and care more about you walking out happy rather than "Give me the money." crap. As soon as you walk in you will see a nice quiet waiting room that has many pieces of art decorating the walls. Either if its unique decor or samples and photos of their amazing skills. They dont play loud annoying music. Dark Child has a private room that the tattooing is done. Showing that they care about the customers privacy. You are NOT going to be a public spectacle like other places. The place and the equipment is amazingly clean and professionally organized. If you are looking for a place that is sterile and safe, which Im sure everybody wants, this is the place to go. And if you are looking for extremely great artists that care about the customer this is also the place to go. As i said, I will only go here. I live close by, but even if i moved across the Island, i would take the drive out of my way just to have my tattoos done here. Thats how much I praise this shop!

I dont know about their tattoos but i got my septum and vertical labret pierced here and they royally screwed me over. she didnt even swab me with alcohol first before using a clamp on my septum (youre supposed to use a tube) and then not only piercing it too low and crooked but also nicking my cartilage and bursting a blood vessel. I had to take it out that night after going to the hospital because i got a blood blister the size of my hand on my face. i didnt realize at the time how bad it was and the piercer kept telling me it was fine, just normal swelling, so she went on to pierce my lip, also with no sanitation and i had to take it out in a month because of infection. ive since had many good piercing experiences with excellent piercers. this was just not one of them. i even confronted them about it and received no sympathy and no refund for the 90 bucks i threw away.

Theres something about walking into a place unsure of what youre going to expect, only to end up feeling as if youve known the people for years. I went into Dark Child for my first tattoo last year, and have gone back for two additional tattoos and a couple of touchups since then. Caryn and Ariel know what theyre doing, and its evident from the way they treat you and the way they go about their work. The shop is impeccably-sterile and relaxed, and I will forever be a loyal customer of DCT. I dont know much about pricing for the tiny tattoo shops that litter NYC, but my tattoos have been a bargain considering the quality of the work. Thank you for treating me as a friend instead of just another person with a wallet. As a matter of fact, Im going back soon for more ink!

Ive been going to Dark Child Tattoo for the past 2 years and now they are like family to me. The first time I went was to fix and add more tribal to my arm which Caryn did an excellent job and now I cant stop going back. Ariel is what I believe to be one the most professional and talented tattoo artist out there. Everytime I bring him ideas of what i want for my next tattoo, he goes above and beyond my expectations. Dark child is not your ordinary tattoo shop the crew there are wonderful, amazing people and there quality of their work speaks for itself.

Darkchild tattoos is not only a place to get excellent quality work done, but everyone there conducts themselves with the utmost professionalism. With every piercing that I have ever gotten I have ALWAYS been swabbed with alcohol and prepped properly; that goes for tattoos as well. So I dont know what those other reviews are talking about. Also their work is amazing and anyone who says otherwise just has an axe to grind. I will continue to get tattoos there and recommend them to anyone who asks where to go for awesome work

I travel all the way from the depths of brooklyn to receive the expert tattoo and the personable artists that do my work. I am happy to know that I can trust the artist to be analytical and to really emphasize the importance of the finished product of my tattoo, paying attention to detail and taking care of my art. I will never go to another shop after having several tattoos tatted on me previously, i prefer to know that I am dealing with a highly experienced tattoo artist.

In a word- "Family" is what I think of when I think of Dark Child Tattoo!!! I originally went to Dark Child Tattoo with a vision of what I wanted and only with a few details, Ariel created something I have never seen, a masterpiece. They create original designs, and are professional. Dark Child made me feel like I was part of the family and their quality of work speaks for itself.

Cassandra- 2/1/12 After going to Dark Child I would never go to another tattoo shop again, The artists in there are very talented,take pride in there work, and unlike most tattoo shops they actually care about what your finished piece will look like. I went in there for a cover up and they turned it into a master piece. Would definitely recommend this shop to everyone.

They dont design their own artwork, instead opting to print things from the web and the outline work during the tattooing process was shotty... Never get anything that requires a straight line, it doesnt work. The lettering work that I got done is lopsided and none of them are the same size... DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!!!

Iconic, trailblazing tattoo business with multiple, highly trained & amazingly talented artists. If youre looking for a new place to get your ink, run, do not walk!! My personal artist there is Aja-Noelle, her lines are incredible. Dont take my word for it, go see for yourself!

Great service! Fast and accurate. I love my navel piercing and she was so nice and I had no pain.
