This is a beautiful shop inside. I appreciated the open space, with the artists having a communal gathering area to relax, conceptualize, or whatever their creative hearts desired. The sitting/waiting area is cozy with a little snack and drink bar for clients. The artists were all very welcoming, friendly, and engaging. Overall Pink Goblin Tattoo & Piercing is the best shop I’ve been tattooed in. Caroline worked on my throat for our second session (one more to go for last of the shading and a background pattern)and has quickly become my all time favorite artist. I’ll be recommending this shop to anyone who is interested.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this studio! 😍 I wanted a special tattoo to remember my mom and sister. I booked an appointment with guest artist Alyssa and WOW 🤩 I was so happy with the whole experience! The studio is gorgeous, upscale artsy and chic! The staff was very friendly, accommodating and customer focused. I absolutely love my tattoo and the execution of my idea truly came to life under Alyssa’s skilled hands! I am so very happy and would highly recommend this studio and Alyssa!

Went to Pink Goblin for a jewelry swap for my second lobe. They have a great selections of both affordable and fine jewelry. Thank you Ryan for accommodating my walk-in even though my piercing wasn’t done there. The process was quick and painless, and the shop atmosphere was very relaxed. I hope to go back there for future piercings!

I had a great experience at Pink Goblin. Everyone I encountered was welcoming and helpful. Darya did an incredible job on my tattoo! She is incredibly talented and kind, and was lovely to collaborate with on this project. The studio was super clean and I felt very confident in the process from a hygiene standpoint. Darya also insured privacy for me given the location of the tattoo. Would highly recommend the studio and the artist.

I love Pink Goblin and their staff. They are so nice and welcoming and they walk you through every step of the piercing process. I had Ryan pierce my second helix and it was painless plus he calmly walked me through everything. Overall great experience and will be back for more!

My experience getting a tattoo from Darya was a blast. Darya’s passion for those she works with shines through with how thoughtful and compassionate she is during your entire time with her. She is happy to answer all of your questions and adjust your design ideas to exactly what you’re looking for. I couldn’t imagine anyone else to have done my first two tattoos. Her caring approach, professional expertise, and beautiful designs make me very grateful and excited for the future tattoos I will get from her in the future.

Im so glad that I went to Pink Goblin to get my ears pierced. The environment and staff are welcoming and friendly. There were great choices for jewelry and I had no issues while getting pierced. The only downside is the price but despite that I will come back for the next thing I want to get done!

I found Pink Goblin Tattoo by a friend’s referral— I looked up their instagram & sifted through the artists (all phenomenal and unique!), but I found Izzy to be such a perfect match for the style I was seeking. I literally set a reminder in my phone for when her books were opening because I HAD to have her do a piece for me! I wasn’t exactly sure how to put a design together (her expertise, obviously!) but I sent several reference photos of tattoos that she had done & let her know what I loved about them. I just gave her the area that I wanted; and then a loose description of flowers, berries, a continuous vine, and some moths incorporated into it— and when I showed up to my appointment, she provided me with two separate designs to choose from. I was honestly so nervous going into the appointment (“what if I didn’t like it?” sort of feelings), but the design was so perfect. She is a true artist!Izzy also works super efficiently; I’ve had some artists in the past that talk a lot which I find to be distracting— she just knocked it out while giving a couple/a few short breaks here & there. I will 100% be using Pink Goblin/Izzy in the future! THANK YOU SO MUCH, I LOVE IT ❤️❤️❤️

Jay and Trinity pierced me and my friend, they both did an amazing job. They are great at making you feel comfortable and they are huge on consent, so at any point if we wanted to back out they would’ve have stopped what they were doing. This is my second piercing from Jay and I would recommend her to anyone!! The greatest pokers i know 🙌

The level of expertise, care & consideration to detail Kim creates is the reason I would highly recommend booking with Pink Goblin. The front desk is thoughtful & communicative -explaining exactly how to prepare for my service. Everything was professional and transparent. I appreciate the attention to detail so much. 10/10 would recommend.

They were very professional, efficient, and kind. I got my conch done by Ryan and he explained everything clearly and was very fast! I was in and out writhing 45min and I have a very low pain tolerance but honestly is was my least painful piercing! Thanks again!

Izzy & the Pink Goblin staff are the best! The studio is beautiful & super well-kept. The front desk staff are always very friendly. Izzy has done my first two tattoos now, and she’s smashed it both times :) Love it here and will definitely return for future appts

My experience with Parker and the other Pink Goblin staff was fantastic. From the time I dropped in to look into making an appointment, through an unfortunate reschedule that was my fault, to the actual tattoo experience, every single person was kind and professional. The vibe in the studio is so calm, and everything is run very efficiently. 10 out of 10 I would recommend Pink Goblin to anyone.

Honestly one if not the best tattoo experiences around. pretty quick, great environment, super professional and hospitable. i asked for a tattoo sunday and was able to get something done wednesday. i can’t promise the same availability but the turnaround on the design was something i wasn’t expecting. Lydia let us make quick changes the day of the appointment and took all of the nerves out of getting a tattoo. thank you :)

Ive been to this studio three times now for tattoo sessions. Each time Ive felt welcomed, safe, and impressed by the artists. Kim and Parker are both incredibly kind and friendly and have given me my favorite tattoos. Ive absolutely loved my time spent at Pink Goblin and my tattoos continue to make me happy every time I see them. Thank you to the goblin crew for creating such a wonderful environment and beautiful art.

Everything from the booking process to the space to the final piece was awesome. One of the most beautiful, loudly inclusive tattoo/piercing shops I’ve been to. Leilei was my artist, and did a wonderful job. I’m obsessed with my little flash that I got done. I live in Chicago, but would definitely consider getting another piece here in the future.

After a piercing mishap (done at another shop) this bunch of ABSOLUTELY wonderful people were able to hear my concerns, calm my nerves, and fix a mistake that wasn’t there’s. They were so knowledgeable and helpful, plus the jewelry I purchased was reasonably priced for the quality. I am so grateful for all the folks at Pink Goblin! I will be coming back to get a piercing once I heal for this one🫶🏼

Pink Goblin has become the only studio I go to for my ink, and Ive recommended it to several of my friends. So far Ive had four pieces done here, all from different artists (Darya, Emmi, and Nic), and every single one has been exceptional -- both for the actual tattoo and the overall session. The studio itself is beautiful, clean, and professional. Staff are kind, accommodating, and just all around incredible people. Looking forward to my next appointment!

I got my second lobes done with Jay and she was great! It’s been a while since I’ve gotten a piercing so I was really nervous but she talked me through the entire process and the actual piercing was quick and virtually painless. She’s great and I’ll definitely be going to her again!!!

Review №46

I had such a good experience, specifically with the piercer Jay. Her kindness, patience, and determination to get my septum to sit nice and center in my slightly wonky nose was the most warming experience I have ever received from a piercer. She was so kind and graceful with all the technical difficulties and explained her way through all the different options available to figure out the positioning so that I understood what was going on the whole time. She was so knowledgeable on what was causing the issues and offered solutions that followed through to give me with probably my favorite piercing on my face!! I would absolutely recommend going to her if you can :) Also shoutout to Trinity for switching out my jewlery after it healed and being so kind and caring while doing it!

I couldn’t have asked for a better first tattoo experience. The space is incredible and all the staff were very warm and professional.

I got my first ever tattoo from Darya, and she made the entire process so smooth. She came up with a beautiful design that I’m so excited to have on my arm. The space was relaxed, and everyone was friendly and inviting. Across the board, I couldn’t be happier with my experience or my tattoo

My wife and I came from out of town looking for a friendly inviting shop and we definitely found it. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was like a dream. All in all the best shop Ive had the chance to visit. Leilei did a couple of adorable cat tattoos for us and we love them so much. I think we found our new spot!

Review №56

I went to see if I could get my industrial repierced with Jay. After looking at my ear, she decided that she was just a little too uncomfortable with my ear anatomy. I appreciated the honesty and would rather have my piercer say no than to have a bad piercing, which is what she also said. She offered a refund on the deposit or to do a different piercing, so I decided to go with two midi helixes. Pink Goblin is very sanitary inside and a relaxing atmosphere with such friendly staff. I would absolutely come back for more piercings and to take a look at their tattoo artists.

Review №57

I first heard about Pink Goblin from a personal recommendation. I’ve gotten four tattoos now by Nic and I always have a great experience every time! I feel like my comfort is always a priority and Nic is great about checking in and making sure I feel okay through the whole process (I run very anxious (!!), and he validates my feelings while ensuring I am at ease from start to finish). I’ve done some flash pieces and some custom pieces and they have all turned out stellar. For the custom pieces, I feel confident sending my ideas and that Nic will create something I love, but he’s also receptive to feedback if I want any changes (to the tattoo itself, placement, etc.). Pricing is very reasonable and I’m always satisfied anytime I leave an appointment. The other staff ant the shop are friendly and helpful and it’s an overall really safe, positive and clean atmosphere. I love that the shop is woman owned; it really feels like a lot of personal care goes into the space itself and the personnel that are hired. I absolutely recommend if you’re in the market for body modification!! :)

Trinity and I have been working on my ears for about 2.5 years now. Trinity is a professional to say the least! I got several piercings from her (lobe, stacked lobe, helix, flat, tragus, anti Tragus, cartilage, rook, etc.) and she was cool, calm, collected, knowledgeable, and very obviously knows exactly what she is doing! I feel comfortable and relaxed every time! Anything you need pierced- Trinity is your go to!!!

Phenomenal experience. The environment was very cute, trendy and clean. Trinity was an absolute gem. Hands down one of the most seamless and friendliest piercers I’ve had the privilege of being poked by. I recommended them to my sister who tagged along for a piercing herself, as she was looking for a knowledgeable and caring piercer, and Trinity went above and beyond delivering an incredible experience.

The front desk goblins (hehe) were very responsive and helpful, when I had asked about parking I was given a detailed description of where to go and etc. The studio itself is very beautiful, decorative, welcoming, and warming. I noticed water and snacks were provided and I browsed some of their items for purchase. Leilei was my artist and she is wonderful! Very polite and kind. She was very accommodating of my needs and comfort before, during, and after the tattoo. I had no doubts with her even being an apprentice. I love my cute little tired cat tattoo so much! One of my best experiences with an artist and the shop itself as well. Thank you all so much! I will be back! :)

I have never felt more comfortable in a tattoo shop. This place was beautiful and very clean. Darya and I had a video call a couple weeks before my appt and she listened to everything I asked for. The day of the appt she showed me her drawing and I was blown away. It was nothing and everything I could have wanted. I don’t live close to the shop but it was worth the drive. Very happy with the piece and the price! I will be a repeat customer.

Pink goblin is an amazing shop and I am so glad that they’re part of our community! I have been tattooed here several times by different artists, and have been working on piercing curations with Jay for several months. Jay goes above and beyond in finding awesome jewelry options, making her clients feel comfortable and safe, is exceptional at placement, and is extremely professional and knowledgeable. If you’re looking for tattoo or piercing services in Athens, you can do no better than pink goblin!

Darya has been amazing both times that i have had the pleasure of working with her. I was originally going to be working with a guest artist that ended up having to cancel last minute. Having made the appointment with a friend of mine that was coming in from out of state, we were so bummed! I reached out last minute to Pink Goblin to see if by chance they had a last minute artist that could maybe do the same tattoo and Darya came to the rescue!! She squeezed us in, did an incredible job and even touched up an old tattoo on a separate occasion and made it look even better than the original! I will 1000% come back to Darya and Pink Goblin for all of my future tattoos.

Athens is lucky to have this shop, makes me want to move closer!

I had a wonderful experience getting a hand poked tattoo on my ear done by Peggy. The shop was lovely - great layout, very clean & professional, with a welcoming calm vibe. Peggy is a very talented artist, who looked at my reference images and listened to my ideas and then produced a perfect original design that went above my expectations. She was also very kind, friendly, and comfortable to work with. I highly recommend both this shop and Peggy specifically - especially if you want a hand poked tattoo or are interested in an ear tattoo.

I’ve been to Pink Goblin twice and have seen 3 different artists, Emmi, Darya, and Izzy. 5 stars for the shop itself. The atmosphere is super welcoming, artistic, and friendly. 5 stars on the tattoos themselves as well. I have been super impressed with all 4 of the tattoos I’ve gotten. I am local to Atlanta and have made the drive out to Athens multiple times just for an appointment at this studio. I would give 4 out of 5 on the communication. Everyone is great so it’s hard to get in for an appointment and often a little difficult to get ahold of someone on the phone. I would love to come back for more!

My first ever tattoo and it couldnt have been any better! All of the staff were super professional and friendly, the space itself was clean and inviting (so many plants!), and their strict enforcement of covid precautions made me feel safe. I was tattooed by Kim Deakins and she blew me away with her fine lines, gentle touch, and ability to make my ideas flow into a beautiful piece that we both felt happy with. If youre thinking of getting a tattoo please come here - you will not regret it!

Love love love!! The shop is in a quaint spot where you don’t have to worry about parking and as soon as you walk in you feel at home. There is cool art on the walls, plants sitting around, and it’s super clean. Everyone was so friendly and the shop genuinely felt like a safe place.I saw Lydia for my tattoo and their work was great! They chatted with me through the session and made sure I was happy with how it looked.I’ve been to a handful of shops for piercings and tattoos over the years, but I think Pink Goblin Tattoo is now my favorite!

Super cool location with immaculate vibes! Bathroom was clean, workstations were clean, and there’s a ton of space so you won’t feel claustrophobic lolOne thing I wish I knew though, the parking space wasn’t paved and there’s this turn where the main street meets the unpaved parking that was very sketchy, especially so for people with cars lower to the ground. If you have a lowered car, take care!

Truly the coziest tattoo shop you could hope for. Fun, eclectic decor, beautiful plants and welcoming vibes, and most importantly an incredibly talented assortment of artists. Would recommend to anyone, but especially would recommend to someone who is perhaps considering a first tattoo or piercing and might feel slightly intimidated at the more industrial vibes in some shops.

Review №139

I had an excellent experience for my first tattoo at Pink Goblin! The environment is clean, beautiful, comfortable, and welcoming. I’ve followed Lydia’s work for awhile and was thrilled to finally pull the trigger and get on her books. She did not disappoint!! Top notch communication before, throughout, and after! Her design and artwork is absolutely stunning and translated beautifully to my tattoo! She checked in throughout the process offering breaks and just being kind. Having many friends with a multitude of tattoos, I’ve heard it all and wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. But Lydia made it as clear, painless and as quick as possible while still giving the maximum amount of effort and care to the design and execution of the tattoo. I also love her booking process of online forms and either half day or full day that takes the guessing work out of what to tip, how many hours your design might take, etc. I felt great knowing exactly what I owed and what the fee included. I have a feeling I’ll be back sooner rather than later! So pleased with my experience here and would not hesitate to recommend to all of my friends!!

I am 48 years old and just got my first tattoo. I am convinced I could not have picked a better artist than Parker! Not only did they work with me to create a custom design, they also took their time to make sure the size, position, and colors were perfect. The atmosphere in the studio is very relaxed, clean, professional, and welcoming. I was completely comfortable from the time I got there until the time I left. If I need another tattoo (and I likely will), Parker is my preferred artist and Ill always schedule with them. I will not hesitate to recommend them to everyone I know.

OMG, what an AMAZING EXPERIENCE, definitely a return customer‼️ My daughter (from Chicago) found Izzy online and together we drove from Atlanta to Athens. The shop itself is a calm, soothing, plant-filled oasis, very clean, and filled with expressionist art. All instructions were clearly stated and our artist Izzy was eager to work with us.I’m 61yrs old, 1st ever tattoo, and now can’t wait to get my next one. We both LOVE-LOVE-LOVE our tattoos — the detail in it was mind blowing. YUP, worth the drive, and YUP, definitely returning‼️ THANKS Pink Goblin staff and see you soon Izzy!- Pam

I’ve gotten my piercings here twice before (plus some teeth gems), and every time, the service has been amazing! Both piercings came out/healed beautifully. Just got my third piercing; shout out to Trinity specifically! They’ve done all my piercings, and they’re the only one I trust anywhere near my face. Everyone is so nice and welcoming, the place is homey and clean, and they are efficient with their services. For professional piercings/tattoos/teeth gems for good prices, go to Pink Goblin!

This shop is wildly cool and deeply professional. I was able to be worked in with very little effort, and I feel very lucky for that. Leilei, my artist, took a vague description that I had and ran with it, and the piece I now have on my arm is infinitely better than I could have imagined.

5+++++ stars - I got my first tattoo here done by Parker and had a really great experience. As someone who wasn’t familiar with the process & had a very specific idea of how I wanted my tattoo to look, Parker seriously exceeded any expectations I had. Any edits or changes were really easy and it felt more of a collaborative process, which I loved. Plus the vibes & energy at the shop are just immaculate & eclectic - everyone is so friendly and nice.

(I guess you can do only one review per business, so Im adding onto an older one)(Aug 29 2024) Fully a six star experience with Zoey. I had way more questions than I thought I did and she patiently guided me through all of them with excellent advice. This was my first color (on the ribs over scar tissue) and she made it as quick and painless as it could be with perfect execution. I love this tattoo and Im beyond grateful to Zoey!(Aug 8 2023) 5 stars again for sureI came in to get a botanical piece from Kim; I sent in a list of plants and she came up with a gorgeous design. Kim is incredibly good at what she does and I was completely comfortable the entire session; she was also kindly patient with all my changes. Im so enamored with this piece and Ill definitely go back for more art!(Jun 24 2023)Everyone is helpful and kind, the space is beautiful, and Nic did pristine work with my tattoo--crispiest of lines!

My tattoo artist is Darya, she has been working on a full sleeve with me and the experience has been nothing but overwhelmingly positive. She is extremely knowledgeable and if she doesn’t have an answer for you in that moment she will the next day! AMAZING staff everybody is so kind and makes you feel as if you are apart of the crew.

The shop is so inviting, warm, and relaxing to be in and everyone was so nice and helpful.Trinity is an awesome piercer and made the experience smooth and anxiety free for me. I already had second and third lobe piercings on one side that had closed. One we got those done, Trinity was so precise in measuring the spacing between the existing piercings so my other ear would match/be even. They explained every step of the process so I knew what to expect and the aftercare instructions were super thorough.I highly recommend Pink Goblin and Trinity and I’ll definitely be back!

I had the best experience with Trinity! My Tragus ring of 10+ years fell out 6 months ago and I wasn’t sure if I could just replace the jewelry or if it needed to be re-pierced.
