Tattoos by Jay Miller

Ive gotten a few tattoos back home in Maryland from the same guy for all of them. When I moved up to Northeast, Ohio I was definitely looking for a great artist and I was lucky enough to find Ana who did one of my coworkers tattoo. She was awesome and the experience was really enjoyable, plus I walked out with an awesome tattoo! Would 100% go back!

They are super clean and artists are amazing. I have gotten my last 3 tattoos by Gabe absolutely amazing. Hands down best artist.

If you want a personal professional experience with an artist that listens and works with you to get the best possible end product, Crucible is the place to go. Your happiness is paramount to Jay and the staff, all are always very helpful and considerate. The experience and talent show in the work. Everywhere I go,everyone is always impressed with the detail and overall look of my work (I have about 90% of a sleeve all done at crucible). I have never been anything other than please walking away from a session and you wont either.

Jay did an amazing job on my cover up! Not only was his work incredible, but he is also very personable and fun to talk to. I will absolutely be going back for my next tattoo.

Crucible Tattoo has a different atmosphere than most tattoo shops. Since it is custom tattoos, you get exactly what u want. Jay is a seasoned artist who takes great pride in his knowledge of tattoos, artistry, customer relations, and overall tattoo experience. The shop is clean and friendly, with the customers being the number one priority.

I am a very picky and dont trust easy it took 8 yrs to find someone to execute what image that I had pictured in my mind witch is hard to explain and this artist was amazing and my tattoo come out so amazing and I will be back to get all of my other tattoos. This place makes you feel easy and comfy while you are getting yr tattoo.

I’ve had three tattoos at crucible sine October last year, all of them exceeded my expectations. I luv them all and wouldn’t change a thing. The first were my eyebrows which I understand can be most difficult to do right and to each person’s individual asymmetrical features. I have had many compliments on them which is nice , but more importantly is that I adore them. I’ve had people that do eyebrows using the newer method mistake them for that procedure . I’m happy I didn’t listen to those that encouraged me not to get them tattooed, and stayed firm with my decision to entrust Jay with that task.Thank u Jay and Crucible Tatoo!!

I am interested in a Tattoo. I went to Crucible, spoke with their team and am very happy with what I saw. You wont find a more professional atmosphere and the Artist are very social and willing to help you find what exactly you are looking. I will return.

All I wanted was a small tattoo. Something about the size of a quarter, but i got more than I bargained for with this incredibly unprofessional tattoo parlor. I had found a groupon for a $30 “micro tattoo” listed at half the original price, sounded too good to be true. That should’ve been my first clue that something was not right. I naively bought the (non refundable) groupon. I was planning to get my tattoo on a friday evening and I had called at about 5:00 to make sure that they accepted walk in appointments. The kid that answered the phone was very friendly and ensured me that they did take walk ins, however his boss was the only one that did the groupons and that he wasn’t in but that he should be back by 6 or 6:30. Now I live in North Canton, which is a fair distance away from this place (about 40 minutes) but hey anything for a good deal. So at about 6:00 I leave my house and drive to this tattoo shop and I arrive at about 6:45, the doors are locked. So having driven so far I’m not about to just give up and drive home, I call the shop and the same kid answers informing me that they’re open until 9pm he then hands the phone off to his boss (who answered with an attitude like I was a nuisance) the boss then tells me that they are an appointment only shop AND that they only accept the groupon on Mondays, completely different information than I had been given on the phone not 2 hours before and something not listed at all in the fine print of the groupon. I left unsatisfied and will certainly not be returning to redeem my purchase. I hope that this review can save someone else out there like me from this scam of a tattoo parlor.

Had my nose pierced there by the apprentice Saturday. Not only did she do a great job but both her and the owner were nice and professional. Answered any questions I had! Not only will I go back but would recommend this place to others!

Myself and my good friend went there, she had a cover up and Jay did an amazing job! My was a single piece which was also amazing! Very well thought through from the beginning, well executed and very clean and well worth it!

Crucible tattoos is the best place to go.. very quick wait and the art work is really awesome. Its at a fast pace and gets done quickly..Crucible is my #1 place to...

After waiting nearly an hour, the tattooist came out with an attitude. He was mad that we were there waiting for tattoos!! He was rude to us and the other customer as well. We left!!! Im not getting ink done by a grown man having a temper tantrum!!!!

Unprofessional child who runs the place. tries to scam his customers because he cant afford his bills then doesnt accept responsibility and hangs up and stops returning calls. please everyone dont even consider this spot if you want a quality tattoo and want it to be done by an even semi decent professional adult

The owner is such an amazing artist. Anyone looking for a great tattoo this is the place you want to go even if you live outside the Kent area its worth the drive and you wont walk away disappointed

After checking out the other shops in Kent I found this place. It was a very professional experiance, great atmosphere. Jay did an amazing job on my half sleeve. I cant recomend this place enough Jay is very knowlagabe and really puts the time into it and doesnt charge crazy prices. Please check this place out before you go anywhere else. All I can say is quality and great people, Thanks guys

My experience at crucible tattoo was great. Very professional, great atmosphere. I will continue going back, very pleased with the work they do!!

Do not go to this place they are unprofessional and crooks. 2 weeks ago today I maid an appointment for this date at 1pm. Pulled into parking lot at 12;55 and was in car finishing my cigarette. Just before 1 we saw this joker pull the curtain back and look out the window. We went to the door and it was locked.. we called and he said he left a message that he changed the appointment to Sunday at 4. He is a liar. I never received a message.so because I cant do Sunday I am out $60.00 deposit

Walked in and got helped immediately. staff was so welcoming and friendly! very clean and quick. will be coming here for my next tattoo!

Jay is an absolutely amazing artist!!!!! Ive had quite a bit of work done by him and a few cover ups .... looking forward to more beautiful work in the future 🌹

Stopped in to get my daughters nose percied. Didnt realize they were closed today. The owner kindly opened the door and explained they were closed on mondays but would be happy to make an appointment for another day. She now has an appointment for friday and I have one happy teenage daughter! Thanks Crucible, see you friday!

Not very good service, and the nose ring they put in for me wasnt put together right. The ball that holds it together came out after a few days. Also, I see the response. Very mature to make fun of me! Sorry I dont fit your perfect ideal of a man!

If I could give more stars I would. Jay went above and beyond on my first piece of art work. Definitely going back and I suggest you do too! Thanks again

Great work and great advice towards the tattoo not heavy handed and very nice I highly recommend I’ll be going back for sure😊

Cool dude! My friend and I were trying to find a place that accepted walkins and were struggling finally Jay offered to help us out! Very happy with the outcome. Definitely will be returning.

I have been fortunate enough to get a tattoo and a piercing from Crucible, not only did they heal well, but they look great. I will def. Be going back soon for more.

Both of my tattoos came out great and the price was very reasonable. Ill definitely go back there when I want another one.

They are super friendly and all about making the customer happy. My sister and I went for piercings today and had no complaints also learned a few things.

Do NOT go here. Do your research and find a reputable tattoo parlor. This place is extremely unprofessional will be a waste of your time, money and you will recive crappy tattoos. Just about any place is a step up from this one.

Awesome work! Original, custom tattoos are the specialty. Jay is experienced, friendly and passionate about his profession.

The artists here do blow out tattoos. Kent has so many good shops. But Crucible is horrible.

Jay did a great job finishing up my sleeve, would recommend to anyone, maybe he will post pictures of it

I recently wanted a horse heat tattooo. The tattooo turned out fabulous and the owner was professional and did an awesome job. Thanks crucible

A very great environment, fantastic work, awesome artist. He did a very great job and I 10/10 recommended going there!

I had piercings done here, and Im about to go again. Theyre great people and are fantastic at what they do.

Dude is a scam artist and probably a drug addict. Dont trust him at all. I drove to his shop and he wasnt there because he couldnt afford to keep the lights on and wont give me my money back because I no longer want to do business with him

Nice guys, but terrible work. I have many good pieces on my body, and I’m sorry to say this may be my first cover-up.

There really great and Jay is a good guy there respectfully and can do pretty much anything Ill go back Everytime

Jay (the owner) is very unprofessional and childish. Does not respect his customers at all. Lies to his customers. Not trustworthy at all would not recommend him to anyone

Havent visited there yet but plan to reach out to them via email got response ASAP prompt courteous knowledgeable ready to help

Owner will charge your bank account without permission then block you on fb and from the company phone

The replies to 1 start reviews speak for themselves 😂😂

Guy is a liar who will probably say I was never there since that what he says on every one star review to keep people going to his nasty unprofessional shop

Best shop ever Jay does great work

Great place. Professional, good work and very friendly.

Awesome work, I plan on going again soon!

Horrible misspelled a word on a tattoo and wont own up to their mistakes

Jay always does great work

Did an amazing job

Nice place. Clean and professional.

Amazing artists.

Exactly what I wanted!

Love this place
