Nunidee is a brilliant tattoo artist! She took my ideas and turned them into a gorgeous masterpiece. Cant wait to book with her again! The Farmington location is really nice, easy to get to, plenty of parking. Its clean and you have your own little private room. Everyone was super nice too. This wasnt my first tattoo and it wont be my last but I wont go anywhere but Xclusive Ink from now on.

The staff was friendly and the environment is very clean. Xavier is awesome to work with. He made me feel comfortable , heard what I wanted, and delivered more than expected. He’s knowledgeable and has a lot of pages in his book. I came for a tattoo and I’m leaving with a great experience and memory. Can’t wait for my second session, highly recommended.

A knowledgeable hostess checked us in and quickly confirmed our appointment. We were later led to the room and the place resembles a doctors office. My wife took her seat on a chair with leg supports to kick back while the work was getting done.The technician discussed designs with her, and after one was agreed upon, he came up with amazing renderings. He was also aided by the use of advanced technology to create the artwork. Im pretty sure his tattoo gun was Bluetooth!It took more hours than we expected and the chair a companion would use (i.e. me) took its toll. My wife also felt discomfort from the lack of cushioning.A flatscreen on the wall provided entertainment during the process. Our phones worked inside the building, as well, despite the area being so secluded.I never thought to look in any other place before, but I noticed the technicians credentials proudly and prominently displayed in the room, which added to the professionalism and expertise of the business.The technician did not stop working until the job was done. My wife now has a new incredible tattoo.

If you have the opportunity to be tattooed by Nephtali, DO IT!!! He is an absolutely incredible artist and a great person. The first thing he said when I walked in the room was “this is my chair, but when you are in it, it is your space and you are free to do whatever makes you feel comfortable”. It was such a comfortable, clean, and professional environment and I will be recommending Nephtali and Xclusice Ink to everyone know!

I saw Nephtali today and he was extremely friendly and gave off such a calming vibe. He was quick but I never felt rushed. Everything about the place was clean and booking was so easy.

Xclusive Ink was a horrible experience. Ive been getting tattoos for years and this was by far the worst experience. I requested Xavier because of his expertise but I was given his nephew Jp. Ive done 2 sessions Im 1700 in on my design and I get a call jp doesnt want to finish . Of course he doesnt want to finish an Arm piece sleeve that Im 1700 in because Im a paying customer who wants what Im paying for and his skill level is not up to his uncles skills who is Xavier . Jp was not what I expected. 1700 dollars in on my tattoo and hes only literally done 6 hrs of tattooing. The place is high profiled and expensive solely based upon Xaviers skill set and his record and reputation. Jp his nephew is not skilled enough to take on the projects that he is forced to because nobody is calling XCLUSIVE INK ASKING FOR JP. PEOPLE IF YOU ARE NOT SEEING XAVIER PLEASE RUN. Alot of the actual reviews you may see are by the actual artist posing as customers. Overall with jp I was displeased disappointed and betrayed to think Im getting someone even close to Xavier. Jp is trash and just a computer tracer who will take 4 hrs of your paid time to draw a sketch that doesnt even look like original photo

I’ve had absolutely great experiences here over the past few months. The place is very clean with a great atmosphere. I’m in the process currently of getting a sleeve on my left arm and have been working with Mike. He’s been a true professional. He’s patient and has come up with great designs based on me just giving him general ideas of what I’m looking for. As you can see from the couple of photos I’ve shared, he’s extremely skilled at his craft. Looking forward to coming back and to the next piece he comes up with!

I got my second tattoo done by Emily today and love it! I love how she gave me her honest opinions when I asked her questions such as coloring, size, etc and how she made my tattoo realistic. She also did an amazing job on my first tattoo back in July and made the experience not so painful and easy to understand. I will definitely come back to her for more tattoos in the future!

I booked my first large piece at Xclusive Ink with Xavier. Prior to my appointment, I was very nervous, as I’d never sat for a tattoo for longer than about an hour.Xavier immediately made me feel very welcome, relaxed, and comfortable. We had great conversation throughout the session, which I definitely appreciated. The shop itself was professional, clean, and had a calming atmosphere. It’s clear that Xclusive Ink values customer service - they strive to go above & beyond to ensure that their customers are happy and comfortable.I’m extremely satisfied with the piece so far, and I genuinely can’t wait to come back and get it finished. I am so excited to see the final product - Xavier is awesome, very attentive to detail, and very talented! I truly had an amazing experience. I will certainly return for future tattoos and will recommend this shop to everyone looking to get tattooed.

I had the honor of getting my tattoo done by Emily. She was so nice and sweet and comforting which helped with my first tattoo experience. I showed her a couple images and she was extremely patient as she was designing the perfect tattoo. Emily was extremely precise and quick. This tattoo took less than 10 minutes. The price is reasonable and I nearly cried in happiness when I first saw it. I don’t have enough good things to say about this place and Emily as an artist. I am already planning my next tattoo f appointment here! If I could give this place 100 stars I would. Thank you all for an amazing experience!

Let me just say the atmosphere and cleanliness of the place was great.. The tattoo artist I was with Mike or Xi Noize is very rude about taking any criticism.. Not professional about it at all.. I loved the design that he thought of. The stencil on skin looked amazing but the finish product was a far cry from what the stencil looked like. Tried to ask him a day later if he could add more details to it and was very rude about the whole thing throwing back my comments. While tattooing me the artist was also watching Netflix and accidentally left a random line on my wrist and refused to listen when I told him it happened when he looked away.. he had to turn it into a out of place planet. On closer inspection of Icarus I noticed that he was only given 4 toes instead of the normal 5. The original didnt even depict the toes. The whole tattoo felt rush taking only 3 hours for something this size .Not planning to go back ever. I usually don’t leave reviews but in this case I felt it’s worth my time

I didnt actually go there. I went to II in Rocky Hill. Not sure how that got tweaked, but I was a happy patron nonetheless.Long story short, I got 2 tattoos when originally I had only intended to get one... I say that as a huge compliment!!Very pleasant, very chill atmosphere, super clean and sanitary. I cant wait to go back!

From the time I opened the door the atmosphere was very welcoming. The tattoo artist understood what I wanted done and gave me a few ideas to elaborate my tattoo and viola it was done. He did a magnificent job and made sure I was comfortable too. The receptionist was so nice and answered any questions I had. I highly recommend them. They responded very quickly from my Instagram message as well

I went a while back with my sister to get a fix of another artist’s tattoo. We had sister tattoos, and the artist who did them, did a not to terrible job but didn’t do a great job. Went in and got it fixed, he did both of ours, and we were so happy especially since it was my sisters birthday present and it was something that was very meaningful to both of us. They were very friendly and clean and organized. Can’t wait to get my next tattoo.

JP is the man. He worked with me on the design and made sure I was comfortable. As soon as I was ready to go he made the entire tattooing process enjoyable. I’m going back for my second session soon and can’t wait for my piece to be done. Highly recommend JP and XClusive Ink! Going back for more!

When I first moved up to Connecticut and decided to begin my Sleeve Tattoo I looked all over the state for a reliable office. When I came across Xclusive Ink the talent and atmosphere was second to none. Each one of their artist are very skilled and hospitable, they work with you to achieve your desired image in mind. I have gone back time and time again to work with Lo (@theboynamedlo) Instagram. He is always flexible and ready to get the best possible outcome. His line work is amazing and I have received so many compliments and told all my coworkers to go to Xclusive for any work needed. I highly recommend Xclusive Ink and all of their artist to any one.

This is literally my favorite tattoo shop. From how clean it is, to how fast they respond when inquiring and to the vibes being there from the staff. I get work done by Lo everytime. He’s done some of my favorite pieces. He’s super dope and does really awesome work. If you’re in need of a new place to get work done I definitely recommend coming here!

I’m so excited to be able to get my small tattoo at this place! My friend had her tattoo done not too long ago from here and it turned out beautiful. Her tattoo has an amazing detail and it just enhanced her beauty even more. This place is filled with true artists!!

I can’t say enough about my positive experience here! I had been following artist Nuni’s work for a while, and finally decided to make an appointment for a small pet portrait after losing my beloved dog. When I called to schedule, the person who helped me was kind & informative. I received convenient text communication leading up to my session. When I arrived the receptionist was very friendly and the studio was clean & welcoming. Nuni made sure I was comfortable, and 100% satisfied with my stencil and placement. I cried when I saw the end result-she knew how important it was to have the perfect representation of my baby, and she beyond delivered exactly what I wanted. I get SO many compliments and inquiries about my tattoo, and I highly recommend her & Xclusive Ink to everyone that asks!

It was my first time at this tattoo place. I was looking for something unique and the artist was able to put together all my ideas and wishes into one amazing piece. He was also ver accommodating and made sure that I felt as comfortable as possible. I will definitely be going back soon to get some more tats done

Xclusive Ink is a very professional and well put together shop, I’ve been going to them for a couple of years, seeing Thony, and I’ve never had a bad experience, always very friendly. I recommend them to anyone I talk to who tells me they want to get a tattoo done. Great shop.

STAY AWAY!!! This is the worst place i have ever been to. I came in to bring me and my girlfriend to get some tattoos. I wanted a simple small tattoo and mike did a terrible job. The tattoo looked like a 5 year old did it, he couldnt even spell life right! The line work is the worst i have ever seen. They were rude to me and never even apologized. When i showed him how bad it looked he had the nerve to tell me to bring my girlfriend somewhere else because he didnt feel comfortable doing tattoos after permanently putting something on my body! He ended up filling in the tattoo with black because he stated he could not fix his mess up. He continued to color in the book digging very deeply into my skin and actually scarring me and leaving me with an infection. Not to mention the owner could care less about the whole situation. He did not want to help at all and the first time he tried to contact me was over a week later calling me at 9:00 at night and was also rude to me! I saw on one of the owners responses to a bad review that their work speaks for itself, look at my photos, it definitely does! Avoid this place at all costs, my pictures im attaching show how it was when he was all done, looking half finished and just terrible, and also the scarring and infection.
