Empire Ink LLC

Buddy of mine took me here today, 8-18-2024. We both got some old tats covered up. Mine was $200 and his was $250. The results were spectacular. Tristan knocked these pieces out of the park. Will definitely be coming back for more work in the future. The prices were great and the work was phenomenal. I recommend this place to any and all that need coverups, corrections, or even new ink. Thank you Empire Ink for fixing me up today.Side note: Tristan, my boy Donnie left my charger block in the shop earlier. Keep it bro I bought a new one.

I went here with a group of friends for Friday the 13th tattoos and it was great! Chris and all of the other staff that I talked to were nice and awesome! Will definitely be back!

Chris is amazing. As soon as I walked through the door, he walked up to me and greeted me very happily. I was a walk in and so glad I chose this establishment. I do not like pain, but I wanted to do this tat in memory of my mom. He made me feel so freaking comfortable! I will be going back for my dads memorial tat as well. I only did a Google search without knowing him or this establishment and Im beyond thrilled with my new tat. If you are looking for a out of this world artist, its Chris. Everyone was so nice and sweet too. Really loved them. This tat is my mothers handwriting in a daily devotional. She always wrote little notes in her books she bought and gave as gifts. Thank you so much Chris and team! Will be back soon!

Nothing but positive things to say about Maritza. Professional, funny, friendly, talented, just everything you could ask for. Definitely will be going back.

I really wish I got the girls name that did my naval(belly piercing) but she is amazing she answered all my questions even though I was nervous. And over all I felt real comfortable the atmosphere in the shop was amazing thank y’all so much!❤️

03/20/2024 I had Chris as my piercer totally chill guy had great real conversations. the whole asthetics of the place was phenomenal very great piercing for a very low price. will be going back for my cover up tattoo!

This place was so good! Honestly I feel terrible that I cant remember the name of our artist because he was GREAT! Very light handed and kept the conversation going, which was good for me because we were getting tatted on our sides and I tend to be a bit of a sissy. Im very happy with the results!😊..... okay update, so Im 5 days from date of getting my tattoo and as it is healing my ink is coming out! Im so sad and disappointed😞

10/10 recommend Chris for all your tattoo needs! Completely exceeded my expectations and will never see another artist. He has tons of experience and did an amazing cover up!!

I had Tristen as my artist and he did an amazing job. This was my first tattoo in a shop and his bedside manner was the best. I went in not knowing exactly what I wanted and he took my ideas and brought them to life! Will come back for sure

Triston did an amazing job on mine and my boyfriend’s tattoos!! Super great linework and rick deep black!!! We’re super satisfied and will be coming back to him!

Thank you Chris for doing such a beautiful tattoo for me!! Can’t wait to come back for more!!

BOOOK W CHRIS!! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. HE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST TATTOO ARTIST IN GREENVILLE

The place was clean and had an open feel. However my husband came with us and there wasnt enough sitting while we waited and a girl came out of the office and told my husband he needed to get up from the Artist chair (not the one that did my tat). They need better or more sitting.

Chris was my artist and did an amazing job on my chest tattoo! He was very friendly and made sure I was comfortable throughout the session. I definitely recommend him if you’re looking to get a tat and will definitely be back to see him in the future!

Great place!!!! This was my 1st time here! Abby did this one!!! I love it. The experience was good

Triston did a great touch job. Thanks boss!!

Great experience. Sistinas was so sweet will for sure go back to her for more piercings!

I got my lifeline tattoo done last night by Tristan he did amazing work and is very light handed! I wish I can give more then 5 stars! He will be the one to finish my sleeve! I cant wait!

Christopher Brightman is the best at the shop. One of the coolest guys I know. He’s pierced and tattooed me and will continue to do so! This man is AWESOME and I love his work! 10/10 would recommend him always

I had a great experience at Empire. My artist was Chris, he did a phenomenal tattoo and is super nice! I even got to meet one of the shop owners and she’s an absolute doll. I’ll definitely be returning for Chris and the wonderful atmosphere!

Christopher does amazing work.Nice customer service. Christopher has done most of my tattoo’s and I will never go anywhere else. If you want greatQuality work go see Christopher. He is amazing.

10/10 would recommend. I gave them my idea and JP absolutely nailed it!!! Free handed and all, I couldn’t be happier!

Abi did amazing work!!! Absolutely love my tattoo and will definitely be coming back!!!

I have gotten tattoos in the past and thought I would try Empire ink as it is fairly new. When I came in the first time, I was greeted very quickly and got to have an awesome tattoo artist (Joey) that worked with me and was patient with my pickiness. Amazing artwork came out of that session so I thought I would come back and see what they could do with a previous tattoo I wasn’t pleased with from another tattoo place. I talked to the same artist and he recommended JR who specializes in what I wanted. Same experience there! He worked with me on placement, talked through the process when I was getting restless and had a really nice environment all around. I have seen a few art pieces from most of the artist and I can confidently say that this is one of the best tattoo places I have been too.

Their piercer Chris did an amazing job with my piercing. It had been given me issues and I tried so hard to take it out considering I’m pregnant and had no luck. Went and he took it out no issue! Thank you!!

This was my first tattoo shop that I have been in since moving to Texas, and must I say I was very happy to be walking in their doors. For one there employees were very friendly I walked in and someone was already speaking to me about what I was getting done. 2. They were very clean and made sure to open everything right there. My experience of getting the VCH pericing was great he made sure I was good and everything, he was very easy for a man. At the time I went he was teaching another employee so there was another person learning which I dont mind hey everyone has to learn why not now. But overall Im very pleased with how everything was. I will for sure be doing business there.

I have only good vibes for this place! They were super friendly (even though my fiance and I were walk-ins) we had a custom design that was for a cover up. J.P was more than equipped for the job. Super excited to go back and finish up! Thanks guys! 🙏

Came in today as a walk-in for my 18th birthday and he was amazing! i was in and out very quickly I would recommend this place to anyone for a tattoo. I will be back 😍

If youre looking for the best shop around with the most impressing tattoo artist ever, you need to come see Cody at Empire Ink. He has done tattoos on not just me but also my wife. We love the atmosphere at Empire. Extremely relaxed shop with great owners and great artists. I highly recommend you go see Cody for your next tattoo. He is the best at what he does and a true professional artist.

Got some good work from them! They did my mans tattoo, and did piercings on me. Stevie is SUPER experienced at piercing and did a fantastic job, highly recommend him if you want any piercing done, they are straight, even, and he was super professional!JP does great tattoos at reasonable rates, they’re all great people up at empire ink!

JP is the best! Did the piece I wanted in 30 minutes and it looks amazing I couldn’t be happier. Such an artist 😜

Got tattooed by an amateur named tristan who was very heavy handed on may 11 2022 without being told until days after when I complained about lines and letters being crooked, uneven and thick and they said you know he is an apprentice right?. Got my $50 back but now have scarred and raised skin because he went way too deep. Currently in the process of laser removal that will then follow with scar reducing laser treatment.

Chris went above and beyond to make sure the placement was on point and sure enough so was the great tattoo he did. Thanks Chris!The Owner was phenomenal and definitely knows how to make a repeat customer between the service and quality of staff!Thank you all!

Chris is the best! He is super personable. He does the best black and gray ink. Thank you for such a great experience.

Chris did an absolutely amazing job on my tattoo

Got my tattoo done by Chris. Will definitely be getting my next done by him. It came out really good I loved it!! Also got my nose pierced by him did it really quick and it came out so pretty.

Chris is an amazing artist, not only does he do great work but he makes you feel very comfortable. If I could recommend an artist, it would definitely be him!!

Abi and Chris are my absolute favorites to go to at Empire they both do flawless work and also make sure your comfortable and just overall great people

Love Chris Brightman!! He does the best tattoos and piercings and makes the experience super fun and as painless as possible, definitely recommend for any piercing or tattoo needs!!

Stevie pierced my septum and he was so funny and nice! The staff is amazing and it’s completely new vibe than when it was prodigy. I recommend this 100% and then some! Clean stations and very fair pricing for amazing work!

Thanks to Chris, He killed my tattoo I absolutely love it. They will get repeat business from me.

My friend and I had an experience together. We both went in and she was getting the tattoo. After it was finished it looked AWFUL. It was NOTHING like the picture what so ever. They really ruined her arm. She paid $100 at FIRST for this trash tattoo. So after she paid she thought n looked some more in the car getting my opinion as well and she decided to go back inside and get her money back. Well we went straight to the artist tristan. Who HANDED HER THE MONEY BACK. It’s on camera, then the store manager decided to get involved and called her a THEIF?? HOW?? She did nothing of the such. She is 18 years old and this 40 year old woman walks out as we were about to leave after getting her money back and she told my friend to come back inside like she was gonna do what?? Gang up on her? Hit her? What? It was scary. So we got to her house and they continued harassing her over her phone calling her on EVERYTHING. And non stop bothering her. Needless to say, if you want a tat this is the LAST PLACE TO GO. Please do not waste your money and time.

I have gone to Chris for all of my tattoos for almost 2 years now and I always have a great experience and love the outcomes! Highly recommend Chris!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about this place! JP was awesome at covering up a scar of mine with a custom design! Will definitely be using and recommending them again!

Great enviroment, loved the staff. Everyone was suuuper chill yet professional!! 10/10 recomend going to this place for any piercing or tattoo. I had Sistina and man she did such a great job given the situation I put her through!! Again 10/10 recomend!!

Worst tattoo shop ever . I was there waiting for hours and they just kept going outside to smoke weed and picking and choosing whos tattoo they wanted to do first. When I was clearly there before a couple of people. Highly do not recommend if you want a high person doing your tattoo

My daughter got her 1st tattoo and I got a new one too. Amazing job on both. ❤️

Was very professional. The artist I had was JP getting amazed theres an amazing job I will definitely be coming back there for more would definitely recommend for people to go get their tattoo and piercing needs

My husband and I did a very quick walk-in for our travel tattoos. We seen Cody and Justin. They both did an amazing job.

Chris was awesome. Got me done pretty quick and he’s so friendly! Thank you!

Super nice guys! Thanks for being awesome on my birthday!

JP did a great job on my tattoo!

Chris at Empire Ink is the best! He always does phenomenal work and is so personable, making it such a great experience all around.

Literally love this place everyone is so sweet Stevie is an amazing tattoo artist. Everyone is chill and on top of everything, definitely good place to go to for a tattoo or piercing at a reasonable price.

Everyone is really nice, but the shop is really dirty and most of the artists have little to know experience. I walked in and walked out. Ill take my business to someone who I can trust.

People are very good eith defines oh tattoos. They do a fantastic job, or friendly, Reasonable prices. Nice place. 💖💖😁Pinkie Sue
