Apothecary Ink

Soooo happy I came here for a tattoo!! Tristyn was SOOO knowledgeable and educated me during the tattoo process. The shop was super clean and welcoming. Tristyn made the experience as comforting as possible. This is the first tattoo shop I’ve been to that didn’t prioritize their mobile device over sanitation. Highly recommend!

My husband and I went to the Pride flash event this past Saturday and we had an amazing time! The shop is beautifully decorated and has so much personality! The rooms are spacious which isn’t typical of a tattoo shop, the atmosphere is well crafted, and the environment is very friendly and welcoming!! I’ve watched Tristyn grow as an artist from the beginning of her apprenticeship to owning her own shop and I could not recommend her more!! The Babadook is on me and the flag is on my husband!

✨ Come here for tattoos and piercings ✨Mid day my friend and I wanted to get piercings done, I hit up Marissa and she right away told us to come through! She was super nice, very respectful. She knew I had a bit of anxiety and talked me through everything.. She’s also super funny. I recommend to come here to see her for piercings & there’s other people there who are fantastic tattoo artists! So please go check them out.This all happened the 29th of June, it’s now September 1. & both of our piercings healed beautifully! Thank you 💚

Picked out Juliette to do my tattoo - was totally as ease and felt very welcomed into the shop. She was totally into doing the piece for me and was so gentle. Very happy with Juliette and the tattoo. Would definitely visit Apothecary Ink again.

Lovely, clean place with good and fun people! Ive gotten around 6 tattoos from Tristyn Grover now and I love every one of them!Especially a good fit if youre looking for a truly queer and all bodies inclusive tattoo and piercing shopHighly recommend!

First tattoo that was more than just line work and I couldn’t have asked for a better artist than Tristyn. She talked me through everything and constantly was checking to make sure I was doing ok. Tattoo came out GREAT and my wife and I will definitely be back for more!

Went in for a tattoo by Tristyn and had an amazing experience. She was super accommodating and patient and a great conversationalist. I got my tattoo in a pretty sensitive area (back of the thigh near my butt) and at no point did I feel uncomfortable at all. She is super professional. Plus I left with a very sick piece that was even better than I had envisioned. Shes also got a pretty gentle hand and there was not a single dry wipe! I will absolutely be back for pieces in the future!

I was unsure about where I should go, and while looking at different places and reviews, I found Apothecary Ink, which had all 5-star reviews. I got my piercing done, and it was a great decision. Not only did they do an amazing job, but the vibes were just as good as the whole experience.

I loved my experience here!! my piercer was Marissa and she did a fantastic job! she was super patient while i picked a spot for my flat piercing and gave a lot of advice! I highly recommend going here!! this was my best experience getting pierced and it was reasonably priced!! She was also incredibly clean and gentle during my piercing! Love the new piercing!! Thank you so much!!!

Its an ideal relaxing inviting space for many artists to be together but to also have their own privacy. Highly recommend looking into their services for your next project. Dont forget to say Hi, to my beautiful friend Juliette.

Marissa is an excellent piercer! She made me feel very comfortable, answered all of my questions and made my appointment a ton of fun! I had some previous piercings in my ear that she examined and gave me recommendations on how to proceed. The prices are very fair too! Highly recommended this place to anyone whos looking for a piercing shop.

I literally cannot recommend this shop enough. Woman owned, queer friendly, clean, awesome atmosphere, and seriously talented artists and piercers. Tristyn has done three of my tattoos now and she is the best of the best. Incredibly accommodating and friendly towards all folks. I won’t be going anywhere else for a tattoo.

Tristyn is an amazing tattoo artist and Apothecary Ink is a phenomenal tattoo shop! Her shop is beautiful, inviting, and the staff are very kind. She’s designed almost every tattoo I have on my body (which is quite a few) and I always get the most compliments no matter where I go. She is always receptive to feedback and is very patient while we trial and error placements, sizes, etc. Genuinely some of the best tattoo sessions ever!

I had such a fantastic experience getting my tattoo done with Tristyn. The environment that everyone who works in the shop has created is so welcoming and comfortable. I highly recommend reaching out to them for your next tattoo or piercing!!!

Tristyn was amazing! She walked me through the whole thing, communicated everything ahead of time, and came up with this beautiful design! I said what size and style I was looking for, and showed inspiration pics and it all came together beautifully. Very excited to see the design healed. Super clean facility, very well decorated and a cute curated theme.

Went in today to get a nose piercing and a tattoo. Marissa and Tristyn were both fantastic. They provided an atmosphere that was both professional and relaxed. I absolutely plan on coming back for my next tattoo.

Tristyn was hands down the sweetest, kindest, most professional artist I’ve ever met. She patiently worked with me to create a beautiful floral piece that wrapped around my lower leg, and took great care in making sure I was comfortable and happy with my tattoo. This took several hours spread across several appointments, but I found myself looking forward to coming back to Apothecary Ink for the great vibes. The shop itself was beautiful, and everyone working there was so positive and friendly. 10/10 recommend going to Apothecary Ink for your next tattoo or piercing - you won’t regret it!

The most aesthetic and welcoming women-owned tattoo/piercing shop in the capital district area! Marissa is a super knowledgeable and friendly piercer and she did a perfect job on my rook and conch. Highly recommend

Walked in to get a nose piercing by Marissa. Super cute interior, with a very welcoming and comforting environment. She got me all set and walked me through everything, and did a very good job of calming nerves. Great experience overall! 10/10 would get pierced again!

A really cool space with cool people! Tristyn was very patient with my design changes for the tattoo and it came out great. Marissa is an awesome piercer who special ordered the jewelry I needed. Highly recommend!

Beautiful studio with amazing artists. I got matching tattos with a friend of mine and Tristyn did a wonderful job. The tattoo came out perfect, beautiful shading and identical. Highly recommend Tristyn to anyone looking for a new artist.

I love this place! Very clean and super cute . All the artists are welcoming and provide incredible work. They really try to make you comfortable. I intend on returning lots of times!

My daughter and I both got piercings today and it was a great experience! Marissa was super friendly and knowledgeable, they have a great jewelry selection, and the atmosphere was very comfortable. Highly recommend!!

Had most of all my piercings done by Marissa. I was nervous and she was very patient with me. She made me feel comfortable and not rushed. Explained the process. Was very informative and kind. I won’t let anyone else do my piercings! I’ll be seeing her soon for more. If you want piercings done go to this spot!!! ❤️

Got both a flat and lobe piercing with Marissa. She was very informative, professional and quick. The piercings went very smooth with minimal pain. I strongly recommend and will be back again!

I got my second lobe piercing with Marissa 10/10 experience. I changed the placement like 17 times and she was super super patient and kind. Loved the whole experience.

Tristyn is amazing, the shop is so so cute and so clean, and the rework artwork I got was SO BEAUTIFUL!

Tristyn is the best! I have never felt more comfortable with a tattoo artist and she is amazing to work with. All of the work she has done for me is beautiful and I cannot say enough good things. 10/10 recommend!

A friend and I went in for a simple ear piercing and Marissa was the absolute best! She made the process so easy and as painless as possible. If youre thinking about visiting Apothecary Ink, just do it! ❤️

Everyone here is so sweet and the vibes are IMMACULATE! tristyn is so great and easy to get along with and is such a great and gentle tattooer, and marissa is a great piercer and person! i will ABSOLUTELY be coming back!!

Tristyn is so personable and easy to talk to! I love the fact that there is a new shop less than 15 min from my house that is inclusive and open minded. Apothecary is genuinely somewhere that I feel completely safe and comfortable getting tattoos and piercings in placements that I wouldnt feel comfortable getting in most shops.I love the different art styles that are available in one location, and specifically how easy going tristyn is about making sure the placement and the tattoo itself are how you want it to be. She will recommend an idea of how it should lay, but has repeatedly told me, as I appologize for wanting a transfer moved slightly up or angled, dont be sorry, its going to be on your body forever, I want you to be happy with it!The understanding and care she shows for her craft make this my new favorite shop!

Tristyn has been tattooing me since she began as an apprentice and I love seeing her new art! I have multiple pieces from Tristyn and I love her style, plus she goes out of her way to make sure you are comfortable during your tattoo. Apothecary Ink is super cozy and welcoming, I highly recommend checking them out!!

Went in for the 4/20 flash sale & Marissas bed side manner was so great. She tried to reopen my naval before piercing & was great at making sure I was comfortable and anxiety free. 100/10 would come again

Marissa is the absolute best! I came here for my first piercing and she couldnt have made the process more painless (or enjoyable)! Will definitely be back. Thank you, Marissa!!!

10/10 best vibes in any tattoo shop I’ve been in, Tristyn is very attentive and professional throughout the whole experience! I can’t wait to go back and visit again because I couldn’t be happier with the tattoo. Amazing amazing amazing. Go visit her ASAP and get a tattoo you love to look at!!!

Absolutely loved my experience with Marissa. I came in looking to get the ashley lip piercing and she did an amazing job ! Very professional and clean, highly recommend and will be back the next time I get that piercing itch 😊

Marissa is great at what she does and makes you feel so comfortable. Ive gotten a couple piercings with her and each time is a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!

Tristyn is one of my favorite tattooers and her shop is super cute. Her shop is always super welcoming and all the artists there make great tattoos!

Marissa did my second nostril and tristyn did my dance Gavin dance tattoo, the whole time both of them made me feel nothing but comfortable and safe. Professional vibe creators. I highly recommend both of them!

I had an awesome time!! Went to their pride flash event and got a piercing. I was really nervous but Marissa made it a quick and easy process for me

Marissa is the best piercer! She always makes me feel so comfortable before sticking a needle in my face:) she’s hypes me up too😘

The shop was so clean and welcoming, I felt super comfortable. The paperwork made me feel included and respected with my identity. The owner tattooed me and Im in awe of how adorable it turned out.
