Bodystain Tattoo

My experience at this shop had been nothing but fantastic. I've had 4 tattoos done here by several different artists. The artists have been great to work with and everyone is super friendly. I got my latest tattoo from Vii, and the detail in it is just amazing. I couldn't be happier with the work I've had done.

Can't recommend this shop enough! Every artist is amazing!

I found Bodystain via the Wounded Warrior Project as they were helping me fulfill my lifelong dreams of having arm sleeves. At first glance I was concerned about the area and neighborhood- however, the moment I walked in the door I was blown away. The shop is immaculate, staff is friendly, helpful, professional and courteous. Their prices are more then fair and the work is phenomenal! I've now had more then a dozen pieces performed on my way to two sleeves and every piece is it's own piece of art. Melo and Shawn have worked on me and each is spectacular. I recommend the shop to anyone. I've even had piercings done by Shea - and the work is perfect on that end too. These guys and gals are five stars for sure.

Absolutely amazing work as always! Vii was a sweetheart and did great work on my Simba tattoo. I'm absolutely in love with how it came out and its healing perfectly. I've been getting compliments from everyone who seen it the best one coming from a little girl on how much she loves my tattoo. I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area.

The atmosphere was super friendly and relaxing. You could tell the people there were really chill and easy to talk to, and they were. Vii Duquette did my tattoo and she did an AMAZING job. She designed it very fast and was very accommodating with my changes. She worked 2 hours later than close, so she could get the main part done; and she plans on coming to me to finish it!! She's super down to earth as is everyone I met there. Super sanitary and respectful shop with talented sweet artists, would recommend to all my friends!

I have had both of my tattoos done at Bodystain and I have been more than happy with each visit. My most recent visit was with Carmelo. I wanted to get a tattoo representing my children and I gave him artistic license to make it his own. He was very thorough in drawing up a tattoo and making sure I was satisfied. I love the finished piece and it has healed up nicely. The young man running the counter also provided excellent service. I will continue to come back to, and recommend, Bodystain because of their excellent customer service and very talented artists.

This tattoo shop is PHENOMENAL! After a long day of being screwed around with trying to get a tattoo from other people/shops I stumbled across bodystain on google and I rang them up to see if they did walk-ins, they said yes, I walked in, told them what I wanted, especially Baby Jack who is the one who tattooed me, and he was able to make it happen. The atmosphere of the shop is outstanding, the staff is so cool (shoutout to big jack, baby jack, and Carmelo), and also the person at the front desk (I think they went by bug? I didn’t get a name for them but they’re dope!!) they really make it seem so friendly and so chill, while I was getting tattooed they were so inviting when it comes to conversation and just their overall vibes. When it comes to the tattoo… AMAZING!!! Baby Jack did such a great job, he was very accepting to feedback, things I wanted to change/ do differently, and even making tweaks DURING the tattoo which artists in the past for my other tattoos did not do. I definitely recommend Baby Jack, and I’ll definitely be going back to bodystain for future tattoos. Thanks guys!

I recommend them 100%. My first tattoo in Columbus was from Carmello about 20 years ago. It still looks as good as it did then. I recently went back for another, and 20 years later, he did not disappoint me. Also, recently my friend's daughter got her very first tattoo from someone else in the shop, and they also did a beautiful job. It's a clean, friendly atmosphere, and the all of the artists are very knowledgeable. Love this place!

Love love love Don's work! He tatted me today and seriously, it's such a gorgeous tattoo. He took an image in my head that had so much emotional attachment and value, and put it on my arm. I can't wait for him to continue working on my sleeve. What a great experience! Don't hesitate to stop in for a consult, these guys are legit!

I love coming to the this shop! Shea has done 13 piercings for me and I love all of them. She is incredibly friendly and walks me through everything she is doing without being overwhelming. Anytime I need new jewelry or a size adjustment she seems happy to help. She also takes a lot of care with making sure everything is sanitary and I am a bit of a clean freak when it comes to body modifications! I couldn't imagine letting anyone else but Shea do a piercing for me again!
