Ash did an amazing job on my piece! His color work was so good and I love that we both got to come up with a piece that ended up being super fun for the both of us. Ash was super sweet and made sure I was comfortable the whole time.

Ash did a beautiful piece on my arm, and I couldnt be more happy with it! He really put a lot of time and care into placement and making sure the stencil was absolutely perfect before starting. Additionally, the tattoo I was asking for was a bit different than his usual style, but he went above and beyond adapting to exactly what I wanted. Ive been to quite a few tattoo artists, but Ash was probably one of the most considerate about comfortability and making sure the experience was as painless as possible. Highly recommend both this shop and this incredible artist!

Taylor at Bad Decision is AMAZING! I’ve been to see her twice and both experiences were great. I went in with a general idea of what I wanted and she did a phenomenal job of brining my vision to life. Healing process was incredibly smooth, and if I had any questions about the healing process she responded very quickly! She was very personable and made the experience as easy as possible. If you’re looking for your next tattoo studio, Bad Decisions is it!

Bad Decisions Tattoo Studio is the place to go if you’re looking for high quality work. I can’t recommend Dave Sevilla enough, he worked his magic when creating the sleeve I’ve always wanted. I will definitely be back for more work!

Dave Sevilla is a phenomenal artist. I came to him with some vague idea of what I was interested in for a coverup. He crushed it 100% and was super personable. It’s obvious he loves what he does- just an awesome experience over-all. I am so happy with what he did and look forward to having him continue working on my sleeve. And he’s funny, too.

Dave will provide you with the cleanest and best looking black and gray tattoo around period! Skill is unmatched, if you want a cheap tattoo that’s going to fade in a year, don’t go here. In my opinion you get what you pay for, and with Dave you get excellence.

I recommend Dave Sevilla to literally everyone who compliments my tattoos. I trusted Dave to do my first tattoo ever & it was such a great decision. Since then; he did my entire chest piece and half a sleeve and will do all my future tattoos Dave is EXTREMELY talented, very personable & his quality of work is amazing. 10/10!

After spending over a year trying to find the perfect artist, I finally stumbled onto Daves Instagram. I fell in love with his work and immediately reached out. His team was super quick to get back in touch with me and very easy to work with. My wife and I traveled around 12 hours to get there from Asheville, NC. It took three consecutive days in the chair with Dave and I had a blast because we talked literally the entire time. Dave was a machine and it was easy to give him the reigns to let him do his magic. I can not wait to go back for my other arm. I would highly recommend Dave and his team to anyone interested in getting a tattoo because all of Daves work is more than that. He creates artwork that you can be proud of and that will stay with you forever.

Top quality tattoos. Dave is definitely one of the best there is and I would highly recommend his work. When you get a tattoo youre paying for the experience and quality of the tattoo. Dave ALWAYS delivers on both. Will never get a tattoo elsewhere.

I got my nose pierced here and it was so quick and easy! i was in and out in about 20 minutes. $50 is cheap compared to the other piercing places around me, cant beat the price for jewelry to be included too! love it here!

Good set of guys and amazing artists, if you want to deal with people who are going to be 100% real with you (and themselves) then these artists are definitely them. Don’t deal with someone who will give you bs artwork and do their best to stroke your ego and let you think that it’s “great customer service”,The service to the customers is great artwork. Keep up the great work guys! See you soon.

Was recommended to go get a tattoo at bad decisions in Branford and when I got there they made me feel so at home. I was recommended to talk to Ashley and wow such an amazing artist I was speechless when she was done. My first tattoo was beyond amazing. Thank you so much Ashley.

To give some context, I’ve never got a tattoo before and I wanted to make sure when I came up with an idea that was meaningful to me I would go big (half sleeve on my arm). I was recommended Bryant Aponte (owner of the shop) from a friend and got very excited seeing the quality of his work through his Instagram. On our brief call explaining the idea I had, he told me to come in person so he can see my arm and we’d move on from there. I drove an hour both ways for him to literally just look at my arm. He was very short with his words asking no questions whatsoever, had no physical portfolio, showed no enthusiasm and or effort to give any “professional” artistic ideas from his end of the needle, gave no information on his availability and what the process would be like moving forward. Guy didnt even ask if I wanted black and grey or color. It felt like I had control of the conversation when he’s the tattoo artist. Waste of a drive and an afternoon. I was extremely disappointed with my experience and would recommend finding another artist/shop.

Review №27

Very unprofessional! I went to book an appointment and I made a $100.00 deposit. I asked how much it would cost and they artist said maybe $700.00 dollars because he did not know how long it would take. Being a tattoo artist he should know how long a simple tattoo would cost. The tattoo was to be done a week later. I left and came back with in less then an hour. I did not know that there was a No Return on the deposit because the artist did not explain that to me.I went to a different tattoo artist and they said the deposit was to high and thats why I went back to request my deposit back. He said he had to call his boss. It should take about 5 to 7 days. I waited and no return of my deposit.What a rip off and a scam of an operation. Go somewhere else!

Had high hopes for this place, three finger tattoos on the back side. Looks great upon completion, week and half pasted, 30% of tattooed numbers lifted up and gone with further 40% fading badly and appears to be also intermittent lifting from the skin. Called for a retouch appointment for a few weeks out since a month of healing is needed. Retouch done, a week after the same thing is happening with a good portion of the numbers lifting up and disappearing. Called for an another retouch …artist states 80 dollars for further retouch and states this fading was informed to me when I agreed to this tattoo and location on the fingers. Ok I am aware of accelerate fading and accepted it since it’s on the fingers, it’s not ok for the tattoo to start disappearing within a week and half I stated to her and I’m not paying further for a tattoo to looks good for only a week before it start disappearing not fading… So three weeks after the retouch I am now missing some numbers with good portions of the other numbers fading away. Now I’m imagining how many lick and stick tattoos I could have gotten with 150 dollars. Tremendously disappointed since I thought I found a place for a future sleeve.

Excellent place to get inked, especially if youre seeing Dave Sevilla. Even though I spend a lot of time working outside in the sun, the tattoo I got from him on my forearm about a year ago is still in excellent condition.
