Good tattoo artists?

longtimesloper · July 2008

I already have 2 tats and would like 1 more. I left a message for the person who did these 2, but, it has been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back from her.

So, I was wondering if someone had a recommendation for a tattoo artist in this neighborhood. I know there are a few people around, just not sure who to go to. Again, please, only people in PS. thanks!

The guy on Union between 4th and 5th on the basement floor below the new eyeglasses place -- he is a super nice fellow and serviceable (I know two very straightforward pieces he's done, and they are good)

If you're needing supergroovy free hand artiste work, I think you have to leave the confines of PS

Are you talking about Third Eye? Aren't there a few different tattoo artists working out of there?

Tthat is actually the place i went to and left a message for Maya, the owner. but, she hasn't gotten back to me. Which guy at Third eye do you recommend?

And, no, I am not looking for anything supergroovy free hand artist work, thanks!

Sad that Maya is hard to get in touch with...She did mine and I love it - was hoping to get another from her. :-( Keep me posted?

She did both of mine many many years ago. The first one back when she was working for Huggy Bear upstiars on 3rd & 7th where the dentist is now. When I went into Third Eye a few weeks ago-they said she had a 6 month old baby-so, that it might take a while for her to call me back-but, still, 3 weeks is a long time.

Hand of Glory did a great job on mine -- 7th ave near 14th Street!

^^Good to know! My neighbor is good friends with the guy who runs that place and he recommended them-but, my neighbor has never had a tattoo done. i really wanted to hear from people who have had work done, thanks.

I also know someone that had a very nice job done at Hand of Glory. She got a really intricate Art Nouveau done. They took their time and worked very carefully. I'll probably go there when I decide what my next one will be.

I think the owner is on maternity leave.
Louie (one of the guys down there with all the tats) did my tattoo a month ago and he did an amazing job. Really nice and unassuming.

I don't know if you maybe know this guy or something but his black and gray stuff does not look very good at all.

This is the guy on Union Street, yes? Looks like him anyway.
Sorry, I don't know the name of the business.
When they opened, people talked about Maya who worked with Huggy Bear being there, but I just see that guy. He's nice.

If we've moved on to outside the nabe, NY Adorned, Stephanie Tamez (a PS resident) and many others.
