If we could give 0 stars, we would as well. We were visiting Philadelphia for the weekend and enjoying South St. Stopped for a moment and things went terribly bad. We stressed how pinched we were for time and told to come back in an hour and we would be fine. Were also told to put $60 down on a $180 tattoo. We put down $100 as we were all about finishing our project. We arrived back before the 1 hour time frame told and were ready to go. We sat an additional 30 minutes and advised we needed to go. We were told it would only be another 20 minutes. This was way past what we expected. The proprietor was expecting to keep our whole $100 deposit even though it was only to be $60. We argued down to a $50 refund. The funny part is that they did not even have the difference in store to cover. Just wanted to get out of there. Long story short, $50 for nothing. Shady business is puttiing it nicely. The owner would not even dicuss the situation with us. Hope no other visitors fall for this unprofessional establishment.

If I could give Body Graphic 0 stars… I would. My sister, best friend and I have gotten tattoos done here by Karel multiple times before with no issues. Today, since I’m in town I took all of my sisters plus my mom to get matching tattoos. Firstly, Atom (at the front desk) told us that my youngest sister couldn’t get a tattoo because she was 17 and “it’s against the law” - which I then looked up on Google and found out it wasn’t true. Atom discriminated us because my mom is brown skin and my sister is light skin, never asked for any verification… Secondly, when Karel finally showed up from “running errands” he told us that the price of the tattoos would be $100 each, which means he wanted to charge us $500 for 5 tattoos that were all less than an inch- that would’ve taken him less than 30 minutes to do. As a returning customer, I will never be coming back and I will never be recommending. Don’t get your tattoos done by these cokeheads.

Went for a walk-in on a small tattoo as a late birthday present to myself while me and my partner were in the city for a date day. Bill was wonderful, professional, and modified the design I was looking for perfectly for what I wanted. He was very professional and did amazing work! The picture posted isnt healed yet and looks smudged from me bleeding a bit, but the lines are crisp and the shading is done perfectly.Thank you again Bill! Highly recommend this place.

Incredible experience! Karel was my artist and did matching tats on myself and my best friend. these are my first tats, and he did an amazing job making them exactly how we wanted. they do a great job at creating a clean, comfortable environment, and they were very friendly and helpful in helping us fine tune what we wanted done! we definitely will be returning in the future.

Karel Mato was the best person to go to for my first tattoo! They were even able to clear room for our last minute appointment. I would definitely go back if i lived in the area.

When the artists even says, it looks terrible and continues to charge you -you know you are in a disreputable establishment. My friend asked him to stop and he continued anyway and he said no we are going to finish.Heavy handed artist, poor line work.

If youre in the Philly area looking for a parlor, you HAVE to check this place out and ask for Evan. From start to finish, I couldnt have had a better experience. Clean shop, friendly, welcoming staff, and they were all knowledgeable of their craft. Prices were awesome - I cant recommend highly enough!

This was a spur of the moment tattoo idea with a group of 8 other girls while on a trip to Philadelphia - it was 10:30pm and we walked in figuring they were not going to be able to accommodate us but they did! The woman who worked in the front was honest and upfront about pricing - we all wanted the same small tattoo so she charged us the house minimum because we wanted it on our ankles or wrists, which was $60 (which seemed like a very fair price). The artists doing the tattoos were friendly and professional! I also cannot stress enough how CLEAN everything was! The tattoo artists were precise and thorough with the cleaning of their station between each of us. I couldn’t be happier to have found such a great place on a whim!

Tried charging me 400 dollars for a simple 5 inch line work tattoo with no coloring or shading because they assumed i was an inexperienced college student and tried dropping the price when i mentioned i already had tattoos. Very unprofessional and the tattoo artist tried pushing his image of the tattoo on me and kept suggesting we put color and shading too. Your job is to give the customer exactly what they want. Needless to say i will not be giving them my money and i suggest you do the same unless you want to be taken advantage of as a customer.

As soon as me and my wife walked in we where greeted like family, the staff is outstanding and for someone getting his first tattoo they really know how to treat you and educate you on getting and taking care of it afterwards. If your looking for a tattoo and really want a team to take care of you in a very very clean and professional atmosphere come to here.

My very first tattoos i got was from my friends friend he wasnt a professional artist in scar my skin in did a poorly job as well. I would walk around feeling uncomfortable to show the sloppy work he done on me when people ask to see them soo embarassing. But i decided to get my tattoos redone over before i get my 3rd tattoo I was recommend to go to body graphics in to ask for Evan from the tiki tattoo shop,etc. So i talk to Evan he made an appointment for me then on the day of my appointment very friendly very polite in fixed me up right away soon as i got inside the shop excellent service no hour waits or anything right on time. He is soo good he fix my deadpool tattoo made it look so brand new it hurted like hell but at the end he made it POP i will deff be tipping him this coming friday to get the second tattoo redone over. Highly recommend Body Graphics great staff great customer service as well dont miss out people.

Matt was terrible. His attitude was a joke and his skills are also extremely sub par. This simple “G” tattoo my friend and I got was infected and fell out of literally both of our wrists. I have 50 tattoos and care for mine well, unfortunately this terrible artist and his abysmal skills left my friend and I scarred for life and also risked our health with his most extreme filthiness.

I recenty went there to get a neck piece but after realizing Ill just wait until I get my sleeves I decided to get a cover up which would be a rose on my forearm Orrin actually did this piece for me which was $150.00 and I must say IM SO HAPPY ! Regardless of the cost He gave my rose so much detail and the shading was perfected ! I will be returning ...😌😌😌
