Pittsburgh Tattoo Company

150% go here. Best tattoo shop. Great people, I cant even explain how amazing each individual is. We had an awesome experience for walk-ins. We did get smaller tattoos, but were treated no different from a big appt. We love our tatts. And our experience. Will both be 100% back soon. Were from out of town, but absolutely plan on coming back for some more extensive work asap. Thanks guys!

I got a tattoo done by Laura a few days ago, and it turned out amazing! I had the best time with her, she’s super friendly and does great work! The shop itself was clean and just had an awesome vibe to it. Would recommend going here to anyone!

Got my first tattoo here yesterday. Really cool shop with great staff, and very clean environment. Mikey designed and did my tattoo and I couldnt be happier with it. Super talented and nice guy, gave me all the advice I need for aftercare and said I should reach out if I had any questions. 10/10 experience

Rev took care of my nostril piercing today. Rev also ran the desk, taking care of other clients are they waited for their tattoo appointments. I was a walk in and he immediately greeted me and ask what he could do for me. I told him about wanting a nostril piercing and he quickly grabbed the paperwork for me to fill out, after he showed me the options of jewelry that came with the price as well as other options. Once I chose, he took about 5 minutes to set up his station and walked me through the process. He was very kind and genuine, even when I asked for another placement. He told me exactly what to expect and everything went smoothly and quickly. He went through all the aftercare instructions and provided paper instructions as well as his contact information for any further questions down the line.Overall I really liked the shop, station was very clean and organized and I felt very comfortable with Rev, he seems very detailed and genuine in his work. Since I didn’t need to wait to get my piercing, I was in and out of the shop in about 10 minutes! I definitely recommend coming here for a piercing from Rev.*NOTE*Bring cash. They do have an ATM if you need it, they don’t accept card.

Got my center labret and septum done here during a Tuesday two for one sale in January. It was very quick and easy! Rev was great, gentle, and made getting these done a breeze!

Everyone at this shop is super nice and very professional. Tito and Shawn both recently did tattoos for me and I love them. Throughout getting the tattoos done they’ll ask you if you’re okay and offer you water or even tell you that it’s okay to take a break. The artwork is phenomenal from both artists on each tattoo that I got. Best shop in the city!

Traveled from the Detroit area several times to get tattoos from the amazing people here. I’m on tattoo number three- have one each from Tom, Aaron and Diane. All of the artists are incredible, friendly, fast and professional. Can’t recommend them enough for an A+ tattoo experience!

Everyone at the shop is kind, the prices and deals are great, but i have received 3 piercings from this company and all three of them have had incorrect placement, resulting in two of them having to be removed. i went to have my bellybutton pierced and left with a surface piercing on my stomach which i had to remove. i went in to have my rook pierced, and asked if my ear’s anatomy was good for it and the piercer said yes… it then rejected and when i went to another piercer to get my other rook done they said it was too small and couldn’t be pierced. my septum piercing is the only one that currently remains, i got it in nov 2021 and it was my first experience at this shop. it has been 2.5 years since then, even though it healed perfectly the placement is far too low and not at all in the “sweet spot” for septum piercings. my nose is also slightly disfigured from the scar tissue being so low on my actual nose, and the jewelry pushing down on my cartilage. i can’t recommend that anyone go to this shop for piercings.

Loved it. Got my nose pierced for the first time. Didn’t even know it happend when the needle went in. Quick and easy. Best experience 😁😁😁

I’ve been going here to get pierced for over a year, and every experience has been wonderful. Everyone is super respectful, helpful, and professional. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get pierced!

Everyone was very welcoming & made me feel super comfortable getting my first tattoo! prices were also very reasonable and the shop was very clean! Laura did my tattoo while Shawn did my friend’s - I would highly recommend both artists!

One of the best tattoo shops/vibes Ive been too. Very fast and good work, not one scab upon healing. Will be using this shop while Im in the area to get any more work done.

UGHHH! i cannot EXPLAINNN how absolutely AMAZING my experience was. As a walk in, it wasnt certain i was going to get in that day. or even within the 2 hours. But as soon as Shawn walked in. He took us instantly! He did absolutely amazing! He was super quick, polite, and light handed! absolutely loved it! Ty Shawn!!!- Emma(sun and moon tats)

Got my nostril and industrial pierced here. Great experience, little pain, clean studio, came back to purchase more jewelry... great prices!

After undergoing neck surgery about a year ago, I was starting to feel insecure about my scar. My spouse spotted Thomas from PGH Tattoo Company on Instagram and passed him along, knowing his traditional style was right up my alley. Upon reaching out to Thomas, I was immediately refreshed by his honesty over his concerns with tattooing over such a fresh scar. He explained that there could be risks in the art getting warped as the scar continues to heal over the next year or so. With a neck tattoo being so front-and-center, I knew I didn’t want to risk that but was still eager to come up with a solution to distract from the scar. Thomas listened to my objectives and worked to create something that makes me feel a million times better about myself - and the art itself is beautiful. Thomas is talented and fast (always a bonus when working over sensitive areas)! We have plans to add to the design he created to complete the look and I cannot wait to get back in his chair to knock that out, among other future projects!

I love coming here either for a new piercing for myself or my daughters, or just for replacement jewelry. Everyone is always so nice and professional. The studio is clean and the staff takes care and pride in their work. Be sure to visit early on Tuesdays for BOGO piercings…it gets packed!

Professional tattoo studio of another kind.Dont be scared by the appearance of the artist. Some of them are really heavy tattooed.But all of them are very kind and friendly.I got a traditional maori/polynesian style tattoo at my right ankle.The artist did a great work, and I like it very much.Some merchandising articles (like T-Shirts, tank tops and so on) are also available on site.

Had my first tattoo done by Mikey. He absolutely nailed it! Phenomenal artist. Very passionate and listens to what you want and very friendly! I will be going back

Mikey from Pittsburgh Tattoo Company is an incredible artist and such a good guy. Decided to get some roses for my first tattoo and I couldn’t be happier with how this piece turned out and the whole experience. Highly recommend booking with him 🙏🏻

They did a fantastic job with my tattoo. They drew it straight on with a pin and it turned out fantastic. I have no complaints I was a walk-in got me in, within 15 minutes. It was hard to sit still during this tattoo but the artist said it was ok and that I was doing good. I recommend them 100 percent!

I traveled to Pittsburgh for a concert and wanted to make it as memorable as possible so I decided to get a tattoo when I was there. I went to Pittsburgh Tattoo Company and I’m so glad I did. I got the pleasure of meeting Thomas Kennedy who tattooed me. He was so kind and attentive. I also got some jewelry changed as well but I did not get the piercers name unfortunately (sorry) but he was also very kind. It was a dope shop and the artists and staff made it even more dope! If I’m ever in Pittsburgh again I’m for sure getting another tattoo here and if you live in Pittsburgh 10/10 recommend! Thank you Thomas & staff!

My two sisters and myself got tattoos today. We were happy they could get us all in as walk ins. John and Tito did our tattoos. We gave them ideas of what we wanted and they created beautiful tattoos! Very nice staff that made us feel very welcomed, safe, and comfortable. Good prices and an excellent atmosphere. It was very clean and professional as well. We are planning on coming back for sure. Couldn’t recommend more.Spooky cat by TitoFairies and Bunnies by John

I got a tattoo by Laura that I absolutely love! Everyone at the shop was super friendly and kind, it was very clean and organized, and I had a great experience. I will definitely be coming back.

I got my second lobe piercing here and Rev was amazing! He was super friendly and explained what he was doing every step of the process. He let me see where he was planning to pierce and double check that I liked the placement of it which I really loved. Definitely coming back here for my next piercing!!

Got my nipples pierced. Quick, efficient, and very profession and friendly staff. Price wasn’t bad either.

Im so excited to have finally found an artist I love - Mikey!Mikey is super talented, courteous, communicative, creative, and polite. I appreciate that he responded to my appointment request quickly, he took time to design my tattoos, he check with me often for feedback, and he was on time for our appointment.Pittsburgh Tattoo Company is clean and in a convenient location.I cant wait to get more art done by Mikey!!!

*******************EDIT:09/13/2023:***************************Liss, the piercer that did such an excellent job and earned my 5 star review has relocated to Black Horizon Tattoo Studio so if you wanna get some good stabbins like I did, check over there. I know Im going to go see Liss again for my bridge and double nostrils! Best piercer in the burgh!TLDR: Dershaw moved to Black Horizon Tatttoo, so if you want a similar experience to mine go there instead of here and ask for Liss.***************************************************************

Incredible place to get tattooed, the entire staff is great, they’ve got phenomenal and friendly artists in a very clean and inviting space.I’ve been working on two half sleeves with Laura “Bearclaw” Bennington for the past few months and couldn’t be happier with her, or the results. She listens to my ideas (even the crazy ones) and creates custom designs that really fit me. If you’re looking for some kickass tattoos I HIGHLY recommend Laura!

Mikey Bairhalter did a beautiful job redoing my super faded 14 year old foot tattoo. It has never looked so detailed. Everyone here was very professional and friendly

Pittsburgh Tattoo Company is so awesome!! I just got my very first tattoo there. Thomas Kenney is the man! He was so nice and attentive to me as a first timer. He was very sensitive to me considering that I didn’t entirely know the whole process. I can’t say enough good things about the place! Relaxed, professional, clean, and friendly. I’ll be back soon!Also, this place is cash only. They do have a ATM on site though.

These guys are awesome. Easy to get to (right off the highway with a super close parking garage), amazing staff, and incredible work that speaks for itself. My artist was Mikey, and I will 100% go back to him for any tattoos I get in the future.

I had my first tattoo done this past weekend by Mikey at Pittsburgh Tattoo Shop. Im a little older, 41, and had always thought about getting a tattoo but had never really had anything I wanted to get tattooed on me. My mother passed in January and I decided to get her favorite flower, lilacs, tattooed on my shoulder. Mikey took my inspiration photos and designed something for me and we decided on something bigger than I originally thought I wanted since its was first. I sat for 5 hours for a colored lilac peace in my right shoulder. I cant tell you happy I am with the shading, the color and the final product. Even from a healing standpoint when I took my bandage off I had minimal pain and bleeding. It turned out beautifully. Ihighly recommend him and my husband is going back in a few weeks to have work done on a sleeve he started a long time ago.

My experience was great! I went to get new jewelry and Melissa was very helpful in telling me what gauges and styles they had. There was a wide range of jewelry at a great price and she even put them in for me! She was very patient and made sure I was comfortable, the whole process was great! I will definitely be back!

Nice and clean shop, friendly and professional staff. Big thanks to my artist John. He was very friendly, chilled and kind so any nerves I had disappeared fast and I had a really enjoyable and relaxed experience. Walked out with a smile on my face and a tattoo I absolutely LOVE!!! Best tattooing experience Ive had by far and I couldnt be happier with my tattoo. Highly recommend!

I went into the shop today in hopes of getting a floating navel piercing and left SO happy with the results! Liss gave me one of the best piercing experiences I’ve had and my floating navel turned out even better than I had imagined! Thank you!

Let me start with this!!!!!! My friends and I were having a girls night and making last minute plans. Thomas was kind enough to squeeze us in (3 of us). The work he did was AMAZING and quick. It was one of our friends first tattoo and Thomas was very attentive and made sure she knew what would or was happening every step of the way. Every person we encountered was so nice. They all made us feel so welcomed. The vibe is so chill yet upbeat at the same time. Pittsburgh Tattoo has 3 more forever clients;) I highly, highly recommend Thomas and the other artist at this shop!!!

I went earlier today to get my nose pierced and I had a wonderful experience. My friend and I did not have to wait an excessive amount of time for them to get started. Our piercer was Liss, who did an excellent job with creating a safe and comfortable environment. I would recommend going to this business!

I have been pierced all over Pittsburgh but Melissa has been one of the best piercers I’ve ever met and been pierced by. She’s very knowledgeable and friendly every time I stop in. All of my piercings have healed well and I will continue coming back to have a comfortable and accommodating experience. I send anyone I know in need to her knowing that she will take great care of them. Thanks for the shrapnel, you gnarly gal!

My daughter and I are from Phoenix. They were able to schedule us in to get our bucket list tattoos. Thanks to everyone in the shop for making us feel welcome. We appreciate your creativity and artistic talents.

THIS PLACE IS CASH ONLY (you will be charged $3 at their atm. I was charged $3 3 times because I had to keep starting over so keep that in mind.. pretty freaking annoying) I did the buy one get one piercing deal last week, that they have on Tuesdays, which is an awesome deal! Thank you guys for that. The piercer was cool.. however I didn’t get to even pick my jewelry lol. he put in a horseshoe shaped jewelry in my tongue web which I knew would cause problems and I told him that before I left but he said it had to be done with that and wouldn’t change it?? I’ve only even known people to put in curved barbells but whatever. Long story short I ended up needing to order a curved barbell because the horse was constantly rubbing my gums behind my lower teeth causing so much pain. I also got my Tragus done and it started hurting a few days ago… why, you ask? Because the jewelry he put in was way too shot not allowing room for swelling 🙃. Sigh

I’ve gotten my ears, belly button, and septum pierced here and haven’t had any issues! decor is awesome and staff are very nice. rev is a great piercer

Went for a buy one piercing, get one free! Took about an hour for my turn but was informed that beforehand. The waiting room has six or so seats and the artists who greet you are very kind and professional. The artist who pierced me, I believe their name is Lizzy or Melissa maybe, was kind and talked me through a breathing exercise while I got my right nostril double pierced. My only gripe would be that the stencil beforehand did not compare to the piercing placement when the piercing was done. It was higher up on my nose and did not match up to my left double nostril piercings. I did tell them that I wanted the new piercings to mirror my old and I know they tried their best. I still like the piercings and would give them my business again in the future.

I got my bellybutton, conch and nipples pierced here. Overtime the belly piercing and nipple piercings started to migrate out of my body and had large irritation bumps. I followed recommended piercing care but the problems continued. I visited two different APP certified piercers about my issues and both told me I had to take out these piercings as the initial placement was incorrect and the jewelry used was cheap (externally threaded). My conch is fine and I have had friends that got tattoos here they are happy with but if you are looking to get a piercing I would not go here. I have permanent nipple and bellybutton scarring and I wish I went to places with properly educated piercers and quality jewelry originally.

Clean shop, efficient, long waits on tuesdays LOL. Got snakebites in September healed BEAUTIFULLY, no weird bumps, none of it. Does lack parking and cannot purchase piercing jewelry on days the piercer isn’t in.

Went there for a flash event, all the staff were super friendly and accommodating. Shawn was the one who ended up doing our tattoo, he was truly the nicest person I’ve ever met and he banged out a really high quality tattoo super fast. Would highly highly highly recommend going here.

I think I’ve reviewed before, but I had another awesome experience I felt it was worth sharing. My husband is a complete virgin to all body mods. At least until today! I’ve had a handful of piercings done by Rev and I’ve loved my last experiences. My husband was looking at getting a more local piercer to do his first ones, but decided after some research it wasn’t a match, so we chose to ditch that idea and hit up Pittsburgh Tattoo Co as we have in the past. Luckily 2 for 1 Tuesday wasn’t too crazy and he was able to get an eyebrow and septum in no time. Rev has the best bedside manner and is quite patient and kind. I personally got my nipples pierced afterward and it was private, absolutely comfortable in every way, and I finally got to get my “goal piercings” without feeling weird about it. I’m still super pleased with the experience and recommend this place for all piercings! See how awesome my husband looks!

I had my belly button and cartilage piercing done by Rev. he did an amazing job! super quick, barely felt anything, and i love the way they look. i was a bit nervous before he started, but he was very sweet - i would recommend him to anyone! it’s also extremely affordable, especially if you go for the buy 1 get 1 free offer on tuesdays. i’ll definitely be coming back

Highly recommend going here! My piercer was Rev and he was awesome. He is very experienced, professional and kind and is great at easing nerves. Im in love with my new piercings!

This shop is clean, professional and trustworthy. However, your experience really depends on the artist you have. I have gotten quite a few tattoos here from different artists. I jumped around a little until I found an artist that I liked. He did four of my tattoos, but my experience was kind of ruined when he messaged me on social media asking for nude pictures. This is someone who I have been unclothed around. It was just very unprofessional, uncomfortable, and demeaning. I just feel as though my vulnerability and trust was taken advantage of. I hope that Pittsburgh Tattoo Company is more careful with choosing their artists in the future because like I said, it’s a great shop with great people!Update: I got a response from the shop 20 minutes after posting this review and I have to say, this shop really strives to take accountability and create a safe space for everyone. They took my complaint seriously, communicated with me compassionately, and are doing what they can to resolve the situation. I’m really proud to have work that has come out of PTC!

I got tattooed by Vika. She was very professional and gifted as an artist. I was able to get in same day which was amazing! I would highly recommend this establishment.

My friend and i visited the shop for some piercings. we were greeted by a very nice woman at the front desk. melissa did our piercings & she was fantastic! i’ve been pierced by several different people and she was definitely my favorite experience. great shop & staff, go visit!

I got my ears pierced today by Rev. They had the 2 for 1 special so I decided to get 4 piercings at once. 😊 He was quick and very friendly. The receptionist was very friendly as well. Everyone in here is so nice and welcoming. The prices are unbeatable as well. I got 4 piercings for a great price while other places would have charged way more, and may have charged for jewelry as well.Rev gave me a rundown of how to take care of my new piercings. The overall experience was great, and I can’t wait to go back to get more. 🥰 Thanks so much guys!

Rev was a wonderful piercer! I was in a group of two women and one non-binary person, all 3 of us got ear piercings (helix, daith, industrial). The consent forms asked for preferred pronouns, which was much appreciated. The shop was clean, and all staff we interacted with were friendly and respectful. Rev was quick and professional, but the interaction felt kind and genuine. I have only good things to say about my experience, and I am planning on returning when it’s time for my next piercing.

This is my absolute favorite place to get piercings, i have gotten all my face piercings there since 2019! the staff is amazing, always so kind and they really make you feel so comfortable! extremely professional as well! hands down my favorite place to get piercings! always will be!

Great experience from start to finish. Super clean, super professional, and genuinely nice! My experience was better than the last studio I used to go to for my piercings on the south side. I even asked one of the guys if there would be an artist willing to have a bit of a collab with my daughter who wants to be a tattooist and is working on their first design, and they were stoked to give that guidance. Will def be back.

Shawn did amazing work, reasonably priced, and very quickly/efficiently. We talked the whole time and it was a great experience for my first tattoo. I will be back!

Shop was super clean. I called before my visit to ensure they were able to do what I wanted - they were super excited on the phone, and made sure they were able to accommodate. I went in, and was back out within 33 minutes. I got both ears pierced at a large diameter. the piercer, rev, was very calming, precise and gentle. from the thorough prepping, to aftercare information provided, nothing was missed. I have no regrets, and the staff genuinely cared. It was quick, and relatively painless.Rev, thank you. couldnt be happier! well worth the trip, and the price was beyond fair. Ill be back in the future!

Best place to get a piercing! As a guy getting his first piercing I was incredibly nervous, but my piercer was extremely patient and walked me through every step. They were very kind and professional and I had an amazing experience. The piercing has been healing well and was done very professionally. Could not recommend this place enough!!

Very nice and friendly. Great prices, love the BOGO piercings on Tuesdays!!!

Great place! I went today for their 2-for-1 Tuesday piercing deal (got two helixes for $35 + tip) and it was amazing. Rev was super skilled at what he does, and super clean. He made sure you liked the placements before piercing. Would HIGHLY recommend.

My 2 friends and I got ear piercings here on a walk in (I got a helix) and the appointment was super quick and the employees were very professional! He made us feel very at ease and told us everything he was doing. Thank you!

Nice comfortable shop. Cozy atmosphere with pleasant staff. Susie Humphrey did some work for me and I am quite pleased with how it came out.

Shawn is the best! Hes always so accommodating & welcoming, making sure your experience is a comfortable one! He’s super kind & cares a whole lot about what he does. His dedication to his craft is next level! 10/10 would recommend, hit him up for your tattooing needs!

My best friend and I got nipple piercings and Rev was so kind and professional and did an amazing job. Didnt hurt nearly as bad as I had expected. Will definitely be back for more piercings!

I was here this past Tuesday for the buy one get one piercing promo with Rev. I got 4 piercings and he made me feel at ease, explained everything thoroughly and was patient. On the back of the aftercare pamphlet he gave me he wrote what size and gauge jewelry I would need once theyre healed. As of yesterday I have had no pain and no swelling in any of them. The shop is very clean and everyone was friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Rev for all your piercing needs! Thank you very much for everything!

Highly recommend Rev for all your piercing needs! He’s an amazing piercer and pays good attention to detail!!

My two friends and I went in yesterday as a walk in to get matching tattoos and it was a great & friendly experience! The man at the front desk was so polite as were the other employees. They got all three of us in within less than an hour. The man that did our tattoos (I believe his name was Adam) did such an amazing job. The lines that he did on the tattoo are so crisp and straight it almost doesn’t even look real. Will definitely be back in the future for my next tattoo!

I really cannot stop raving about this place! We walked in with a large group that all wanted small matching tattoos & left with that & then some! Not only was every single person in this shop so incredibly nice, professional & respectful, but everyone was kickass at their jobs! We threw last minute piercings at them and LOTS of indecisiveness & yet they remained patient. We walked out with 4 tattoos and 2 piercings in under two hours! These were the best prices we could find between here & Indiana! Definitely a must if you are looking for experienced piercers or artists. 💙

Aaron fixed a lower quality tattoo of mine and turned it into something I absolutely love. He worked efficiently while also making good conversation. Im in love with the result and am so happy that I found this place. Surprisingly, this tattoo is the best healing tattoo Ive had and Im still surprised with how quickly he finished it. I highly recommend Aaron and Pittsburgh Tattoo. Get in his books ASAP for a great experience.

I’ve gotten a few tattoos here and also my ears pierced. aaron is a very skilled tattoo artist and did my tats perfectly, also gave me useful pointers and advice on placement. would def recommend coming here.

Terrific experience! Would recommend and already have very nice people that work there the shop is very clean, Tito my artist was very friendly and I love my new tattoo

Love this place! My artist Tom Kenney was amazing he was quick an on point my tat turned out awesome! My fiance got a tat an a piercing an they killed it! I highly recommended this place for anyone wanting tats or piercings they are so friendly an they work with what ur wanting to get this is hands down the best tattoo shop Ive ever been to an the only place Ill get tats at!

The receptionist at the front was super nice and was really patient with me and was friendly. Thomas(the tattooist) did a incredible job in my first tattoo! He was also friendly and nice and told me what I needed to do to take care of my tattoo. Will definitely be going back again :)

Great experience with the buy one get one deal! Very kind piercer, very instructive on how to take care of the piercings, and also funny :) Would go again for sure (and will go when I eventually want to downsize these new piercings!).

Went in to get a piercing done and Liss was the best! I have never felt more comfortable she had such a friendly but also professional personality thank you!!

Revina has done 3 of my piercings and I was more then impressed. This shop has great service and does a 2 for 1 on Tuesday (they do their best to get everyone in). I believe piercings are walk in only. Revina did an amazing on all my piercings including a nostril, septum and other. Each time it was virtually painless. Also each person I met with in the shop were very professional and kind. I’m already trying to decide on my next piercing!

Awesome atmosphere and amazing service! Definitely would come back to get more piercings done there

I recently went in to get my conch and tragus pierced. Rev did an amazing job with both piercings and the girl up front was super nice. I normally get a little frightened with needles and have a low pain tolerance but I could not have picked a better place to go! The process was quick and easy! Definitely recommend going and I will be back! :)

This is a great place to get some body mods done. My daughter and I both got piercings from the resident piercer Rev. He is really thorough and explains everything to you along the way. I have had to go back to see him twice for jewelry adjustments due to swelling, and he has always been very welcoming and understanding. Glad I found this sweet jem, as I am a veteran/piercing junky and now I wont be going anywhere else !!!!

My appointment was with Aaron, who did an absolutely phenomenal job. I had wanted a coffee tattoo for a long time, and he went above and beyond expectations with both the design and the tattooing. The building and equipment were clean, the staff was friendly and welcoming... it was definitely a 5- star trip, and I look forward to returning for more work!

This place is awesome! I came in on a Tuesday for the BOGO piercing special and left so happy. Melissa at the desk was so nice and very helpful. She even held my hand while I got my piercings ( punk much lol). Rev the piercer was very professional, kind and patient with me! He was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I even came back for after care help and left satisfied again. I tell anyone and everyone to go check them out. Thanks again and I’ll be back soon! 😊😊

This place was amazing. The staff were super friendly and supportive. Thomas did our tattoos and not only was he fast but quality work too. If I ever find myself in Pittsburgh again Ill definitely be revisiting.

Loved this place! i got a septum and helix piercing and it was super quick and i hardly felt a thing! the staff were all friendly and made the experience super easy 10/10

Shawn has tattooed me countless times, he’s done most of my leg and always gives the best experience. truly the kindest and most genuine person. 10/10 experience and his tattoos are FIRE 🔥 🔥🔥 get tattooed by him.

My teen got their septum pierced here this afternoon. The piercing artist, Ashlee, was exceptionally professional, AND, just as important, if not moreso, she was incredibly kind, compassionate, trans-friendly, teen-friendly. ALL of these traits are incredibly important to all clients, but most particularly for families of LGBTQIAP+ humans. We will be back, and recommend highly to the 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 community. This is how you change the world- one small but extraordinary act at a time.

Got my first and second tattoo here it turned out awesome🥰 love it

Rev has been so much help in every single piercing I have. So much so Im considering getting a few tattoos from the shop too! Theyre all so sweet and goofy, I dont think Ill go anywhere else! Love you guys

Love this tattoo shop! I have gotten several piercing from Rev and always had a great experience! I also got an American traditional tattoo from Thomas and wow what amazing work! Would recommend this shop to anyone going through the Pittsburgh area!!

First time visiting Pittsburgh Tattoo Company. Went in to get new snake bite jewelry. They had a really big and nice selection of all styles. I chose the closed loop in black. Liss was the piercer that assisted me. Very knowledgeable. Answered all my questions including about gauging my ears. I’ll definitely be back to buy more jewelry and probably get pierced again! Thanks for a great experience Liss!!!!

Amazing shop! Ive only gone for piercings but have a consult in for a tattoo now Quality work, clean, and friendly. Ive convinced all my family to go there for piercings.

Thanks Shawn! such a friendly and awesome shop

I don’t know how the tattoos would be but I brought my daughter here today for a septum piercing and Rev did the piercing and made her feel comfortable and treated us professionally and very courteously. I have never been in a tattoo shop before so wasn’t exactly sure what to expect and I was quite pleased at the service we had today. Thank you Rev! You made it easy for me and my daughter who was very pleased with her nose ring!

They treat you like garbage if youre a walk-in. Gave them my number. They said they would call in a couple of hours. Ive never heard from them.

Man oh man, this was the most calming and easy going piercing experience Ive had. Rev is a rock star when it comes to explaining everything and setting the client at ease. Wham bam, got my septum and eyebrow pierced - an awesome experience and highly recommended.edit: I went back to get a pair of labrets done as well as vertical bars in my nipples. It was just as awesome as the first visit. I cannot recommend Rev enough for your piercing needs. I do need to shave though.

I took my 17 year old in for a septum piercing-Rev was amazing. He thoroughly explained the process as well as after care. The experience was very professional and clean. You can really tell Rev loves his work. I highly recommend this business for piercings!

Me and my best friend just got friendship tattoos at this shop. We walked in and everyone was super nice and courteous to us. We waited maybe 30 mins. The shop is gorgeous and the prices are right. This shop is perfect. I’ll definitely be back. Thank you guys!

This place is top notch. Came here for my first tattoo with Aaron and he knocked it out of the park. The design was everything I wanted and more. Great conversation and Aaron was very thorough with aftercare instructions. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely go back.

My husband and I got tattoos from Thomas Kenney while in Pittsburgh, he was super nice, did great work, and was a reasonable price and wait for a walk in. Clean shop, nice staff, if were ever back in town well stop to see him again!!

Liss pierced my nose and was super friendly! I knew exactly what to expect, and she made me feel comfortable immediately. Will definitely go back for piercings in the future

I love with this place❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Shannon has done almost all my tattoos. Susie is working on my forearm. Everyone is so nice. Very clean environment. I love working with Shannon I basically just sit down and say do whatever you want. She knows my style and what I like. True artist here you dont be disappointed. 👍👍👍👍👍

I took my 14 year old daughter for her Valentines Day gift, 2nd lobe piercing and a double helix. Rev is an AMAZING piercing professional. His bedside manner is stellar and he was HIGHLY recommended by friends. He was informative, professional with a mix of humor to relax her. Want a piercing? Seek out this guy! You will NOT regret it! Thanks Rev!

Amazing place!! i personally went to mikey for mine but everyone’s work there is amazing definitely will be coming here for all my art!!

Went on a Tuesday for their 1+1 offers on piercings. As a person with very little pain tolerance, I was amazed by Revs skills and would definitely recommend visiting this place!

Rev is great! I had a great experience getting pierced by him. He also helped me after the ball of my piercing fell out and replaced my piercing with a longer bar. Ill never get pierced anywhere else.

I’ve had a number of piercings done at another tattoo shop more local to myself within the last decade or so. While out in Pittsburgh for the day, my husband took me to get my long awaited septum piercing. He personally chose this business and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. In fact, Rev far exceeded expectations. He explained the whole process, he was clean and professional, and the aftercare instructions he gave me, both verbal and in a print out, were excellent. He clearly cares about the maintenance and care of a new piercing and his customers. I can say for sure I will be returning to this business for the next.

I just got my first tattoo here and Tito not only did a great job on the tattoo but also on dealing with my nervousness. It is an overall very clean and nice shop.Would go here again for the next one.

Absolutely great experience! We are in Pittsburgh temporarily for work and went to this shop based on some work we had seen from them. The guys there are awesome! We walked in on a Monday and my wife and I both had tattoos designed and done in the same afternoon. Aaron put in the extra effort to make sure our tattoos came out excellent! Cant say enough good things about this shop!!

Very nice and gentle had piercings done

I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs a piercing. The prices are great, the piercer is so kind, everything is clean and professional and no blasting music. We got the 2 for 1 tuesday deal, and while there is a bit of a wait, it was worth it.

Got my septum pierced here about a month ago and it healed like a dream, love this place

I got my first tattoo here during my first weekend of college back in August spontaneously when my friends wanted piercings. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better place to go! The prices are great and the artists are amazing! I cannot wait to go back eventually and get more pieces!

Great place with a welcoming vibe. Ive gotten a few piercings here & Im planning on coming back for more! Id choose this place over anywhere else in Pittsburgh for a piercing

They were super friendly and you know you have a good piercer when your new piercing barely hurts! 10/10 recommend going here. They know their stuff

I just went there yesterday to get my nose pierced, i was so nervous but they made me feel comfortable and I eventually calmed down but they were so nice and polite, didn’t cause any problems and it was smooth & quick I definitely recommend you guys going to this shop for any piercings

Came as a walk in for my first tattoo ever and everyone was super nice and friendly. The quality of the tattoo is awesome and they did it so fast and it came out so pretty. Highly recommend! Definitely wanna go back.

Shannon Daley is one of the best artists Ive ever seen and the only artist Ill go to. I have tattoos that she did seven years ago and people still ask me if I just had them done. Shes great to hang out with while getting work done, shes very professional and clean, and shes great at helping me convert my vague ideas to amazing artwork. I wish I could give her and her shop more stars.

Great place and friendly staff. Really knew their stuff!

Absolutely in love with my septum!! the person that pierced me was so nice, accommodating, and gentle. 100% reccomend!

Rev, the piercer, is incredible. Hes professional, gentle, and patient. Easiest piercings Ive ever gotten and 1000% recommended. Hayley is a great tattoo artist too!

Love this place! Got my lip pierced on Saturday and had Rev do it for me. The guy was really chill and I loved the joking atmosphere! I would definitely come back for another piercing

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Ive been a victim of terrible tatts the majority of my life, until I walked into P.T. co. It was such a welcoming, CLEAN, chilled atmosphere with amazing artists! Justin Sims was my artist and not only was he a great person but he is BEYOND talented! The tattoo he did for me he drew from scratch and it is absolutely breathtaking! I was in shock til I got home, looked at it and reality hit me.. the beauty of it made me cry tears of joy. I couldnt be happier! Its everything I could of ever wanted and more. Will definitely be back for more!

Wouldnt recommend Joe marante, he pushed back my appointment twice, once because he was completely unprepared for the session. I discussed with him what i wanted when i met him and i sent him references through email. he waited til I showed up to tell me he was confused about what I wanted rather than communicating with me before hand to get something drawn up forcing me to waste money on parking and my time. Promised me after the fact that he would use my appointment slot and his day off after to draw something up to see if I like it then reschedule before the end of the week to make it up to me. I then didnt hear from him for days and when I did finally hear from he was unresponsive. So I had to drop him. Very unprofessional behavior, lacked i terest in helping me and difficult to work with.

Liss helped me out when I was in a super tight spot when I lost the end to my staple bar. I was recommended to come to Pittsburgh Tattoo Company and Im so glad I did. Liss educated me on my bar and we had good conversation and she really helped me out of a stressful spot.

Absolutely loved this place.Very clean environment, and professional. A friend and I went to go get tattoos and had walked in, we were greeted right away and our artist took time to understand what we wanted and helped us pick the best placement for our designs. He made sure we were comfortable and loved the placement, design and so on. Absolutely love my tattoo and will be going back!!

I got my first tattoo with John, and I left disappointed. He didnt ask enough questions about my specific design and he seemed more interested in what he wanted to design that what I wanted to get tattooed. I imagined something pretty simple and thought it would be fine, but there was clearly some miscommunication.After some initial discomfort, getting the tattoo itself wasnt too bad, and he was pretty friendly, but he spent a lot of time talking to his coworkers complaining about other customers.

Great service by only hiccup was he did the piercing before telling me that they only accept cash. I was paying with credit card and it got kind of a sticky situation for me and uncomfortable. He let her get the piercing for free because it was his birthday I appreciate it but it was kind of embarrassing for me.

Rev was absolutely amazing with giving my friend and I navel piercings. We were both very nervous and he got straight to the point and got it done very easily. Didn’t even hurt!

I got my smiley and nostril pierced here and it was the least stressful piercing experience of my life. piercer was very thorough in explaining everything along the way as well as aftercare. will definitely be back!

Great place to get your next tattoo highly recommend going here. Very clean and organized. All the tattoo artist seem to do amazing work! I Will definitely be going back for more!

Ok, I would like to start with this review is for piercings only. I do have a small tattoo from them from a Friday the 13th event and had no problems. My piercings on the other hand, have caused problems. I got my lip pierced here on the say day as my tattoo and ask for a hoop, knowing how I swell and heal. I was basically told told no and was pierced with a short bar. The placement of my lip is great but due to how much I swelled, healing was so hard. I ended up stopping at another shop to have it looked at because the base of the bar was digging in so much. The other shop didnt want to change it just because of the healing but agreed I should have been pierced with a hoop when I explained how I heal. The most recent time I was there was about a month ago for a cartilage piercing (as pictured with different jewelry). I really wanted a piercing during a bad day and knew my friend loves it there and was going to try it again. I again asked for a hoop and again was denied. I again like the placement of the piercing itself but the bar was far to short. When I swelled, the flat back dug into the skin so bad, I wasnt healing and scabbing bad. I ended up having to change it to a hoop earlier then I should have but I knew it wasnt healing with the bar. Looking at the bar, it was shorter than bars my roommate used for his healed cartilage piercings. Im now having such a long heal with this ear piercing, Im having another piercer look at it. Again, nothing against the tattoo artists but multiple bad piercing experiences.

My entire experience here was awkward and unsettling. My artist was 20 minutes late. Whatever, no big deal. But, while I was waiting, several people kept walking in and assuming I worked there because no one would greet them and I was the only one making eye contact (it was only me and two workers in the shop, no other customers yet).When my artist arrived, she didn’t greet me but I guess she knew I was her appointment because I think they had just opened and I was her first for the day. She just kind of shouted at me from behind the counter to come look at the sketch she came up with.Prior to my appointment, her email to me was very brief. No questions asked. No indication that she couldn’t/wouldn’t do anything I asked. So, when I asked her to space the flowers out, she said “THAT’S NOT HOW THEY GROW and if you’ve seen my Instagram then you’d know what my work is like.” Without another word, she sighed loudly out of frustration and began furiously erasing her sketch tablet like a child.The funny thing is that I felt like I spent months obsessing over her work before deciding to book with her. I felt like she was refusing to take responsibility for not really putting any effort into the sketch or for not putting in any effort to communicate with me.While I waited for her changes, I considered slapping $50 on the counter for her time and running out the door. Instead I decided to get over my anxiousness and just trust her. After all, I had seen plenty of her work online and I figured no matter what I ended up with would be nice. I 100% regret that now. We spent two hours in awkward silence and now I’m stuck with a tattoo that’s nice enough but not really what I was imagining. Sure, that’s partially my fault for being awkward, but this artist was so confrontational, aggressive, and unhelpful that I just felt backed into a corner.I think artists like these need to be more considerate of the fact that these are intimate and anxiety-inducing situations for some people. Also, we’re coming to you, a professional artist, trusting that you’re going to help guide us and create something unique based on our requests rather than just throwing any old sketch together. It’s not okay to talk to paying customers who admire your work like they’re stupid just because you’re feeling lazy and uninspired. I will definitely be finding a different artist to finish my tattoo.

Service was good and my artist was super nice but I just don’t think he was paying much attention while he was doing this. I was during the $20 tattoos but still, I think it should’ve been better than this. Stray lines and one of the circles isn’t even complete.

I have been to quite a few piecing shops in Pittsburgh. Liss by far has provided the best piecing experience I have had in Pittsburgh. Very professional, large selection of jewelry, and very enthusiastic. AAAAAAAAAA+++++++.

Walked in for a piercing was done in like 5 minutes flat. Piercing prices a reasonable too. Will be going back for another, and probably a tat once I figure what to get. Place is clean and tidy as well.

I’ve had multiple piercings done here. always friendly and sanitary. never any issues.

Got all my tattoos and piercings here. Everyone here is super friendly and super talented. I would highly recommend this place to anyone if they asked me where to get a tattoo or piercing

Just got done getting angel fangs there! The piercer was so sweet and did such an amazing job! Definitely coming back for more!

Clean and artists are awesome. This place is tremendous and must visit if you are seeking tattoo.

Awesome and friendly tattoo shop,great work and great prices,very satisfied with my tattoo.

Incredible shop! Everyone there are unbelievably friendly and welcoming! I got a piercing done by Revina, he is one of the best piercers in the area! cannot reccomend enough!

Ive gotten my last 8 of my 10 tattoos at Pittsburgh Tattoo Co. Adam Shields did 7 of those and Shannon Daily did 1. Both are fantastic tattoo artists! No need to go anywhere else.

Liz was amazing! She took time to hear what I needed, scheduled me and saw me right away when I got to my appointment.

Really friendly service for my first tattoo! Was quicker and cheaper than I could have possibly expected :) I will probably be back very soon!

Asked for a consult via email on August 3rd, was happy that someone got back to me on the 4th asking for more information. Sent back the requested info that same day and then on the 5th I was asked for a reference photo. I sent that over immidiately and have yet to hear from anyone regarding the tattoo.Reached out 9 days later on the 14th asking if Justin has an update. Its now another 8 days after that and 17 days in total since Ive heard from anyone. Pretty horrible customer service all around. I wish I could rate the facility or work done, but unfortunately Im not going to have the opportunity to do that.

Rev is the only guy Ill go to for my piercings!! Got my nipples and tongue done by him, both turned out beautifully and he is super professional and you can tell he knows what hes doing. Ill be back for more!

Man, this place is the best. I just got my favorite tattoo today from TJ on my sternum. Super professional (especially considering it being a sensitive spot) and kind. Good vibes only. I would highly recommend.

Wonderful place. Took me as a walk-in. Did a great job on the tattoo I asked for on the spot. Highly suggest this place to everyone. Very friendly and great artist. I WILL be back~

Super awesome employees and work. Ive gotten four piercings to date and everytime Rev is kind and helpful! Absolutely love it here.

Rev does an excellent job at making you feel at ease and comfortable. I will 100% be coming back. Nothing but good vibes from him and the establishment.

Very professional, welcoming, and easy going employees. The shop is clean and warm. They do only accept cash but and ATM is located in the shop for convince... I am extremery satisfied with my cover up tattoo... THANK YOU JOSH.... I will be back....~BRIE~

Absolutely wonderful. I loved the experience and the price! Only downside was finding parking. But that has no reflection on the shop whatsoever. If you need pierced, go here!

Clean shop, I just needed a new hoop for my conch piercing. Quick transaction and they took the time to make sure the hoop fit properly. I will go back when I want another piercing!

Came in without appointment, they fit me in for a tattoo. John is really professional and did some great work. Whole place is really clean and the staff is super friendly.

Ive gone here for multiple piercings and two tattoos each time the experiences varied, and Ive been here multiple, the reviews say the staff are very nice but I feel the complete opposite, they arent very welcoming and I dont know if thats due to me coming in spontaneously or just being a young adult they dont take me seriously, I do remember my tattoo artist not telling me even how to care for the new tattoo which I thought was odd and unprofessional, they do great work but the customer service is lack luster.

I’ve had multiple piercings done here, & I love them all! I’m definitely planning on coming back here for my next tattoo once I decide what to get!

Aaron did a great job on executing my vision. Im so happy with my tattoo and I would recommend this studio to anyone who wants a high quality tattoo.

Great shop. Super clean, chill, and friendly. Got some great advice and piercings by Melissa.

Rev pierced my nipples and he did an AMAZING JOB! 100/10 WOULD RECOMMEND ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I just got my septum pierced by Rev on Thursday, it was amazing, so smooth and painless and he did such a great job explaining what was going on.

Drove from Buffalo, Ny to see Madeline. This is one of the nicest shops Ive had the pleasure of being in. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get ink done. Cant wait to go back.

Rev is a wonderful piercer! Can’t wait to come back. Easy and thoughtful process.

Jim my guy to go to. Takes his time will meet your needs .Give him your respect He will give it back. Very talented. Will come in on hia off daya to finish any work left undoneWork is guaranteed

Liss was amazing and so patient with my daughter and her best friend. We will def be going back.

Thomas Kenney is one of the best tattoo artists around. Highly recommend!

Best piercing experience ever! Rev is kind, careful and educated! He will be my go-to piercer from now on

Cash only. Great service, friendly staff. We didnt have an appointment, but we called to ask about walk-ins and we got in very quickly. I was very pleased with my ink!

Excellent artists, its clean and leaves me worry free. I love the ink they did on my arm. Im definitely gonna be a returning customer.

Fast, friendly and great quality.Plus, they added my dads initials to my tattoo without charging extra and it came out awesome!

These guys have a signboard just outside of their studio says walk-ins and i i called these ultimate professionals if they can let me get a couple tattoo..lets get amazed here..they said send me an email about it super awesome....felt like i am going to apply for a tourist visa ;)

Most professional shop Ive been to yet. Adam Shields is truly an amazing artist. Will be back soon for more work.

Great place and great people very clean. Will definitely go back for more tattoos. Would recommend to everyone!!

I could not ask for a better group of guys! Thomas Kenny was my girl friends artist, and he was unbelievably fast, efficient, and produced amazing art!

Got my nose pierced by Rev. Super nice guy and made me feel very welcomed!

They was so careful and clean and so nice I just got my nose done and she did great

Great spot. Clean . Staff was helpful and professional. I was a walk in and they had me in and out in a reasonable time. Highly recommend this place for some great ink.

I got my septum and tongue pierced, my ears stretched, my mom got her nose and daith, my friend got her daith, and my other friend will be getting her tongue pierced soon, all at this tattoo shop and none of us have anything bad to say about it.
