Sarah did my tattoo and she is so sweet she did so good. it was my first tattoo and she made me feel comfortable. i would definitely recommend coming here and having sarah do your tattoo she’s amazing!!!
I am very happy with my choice coming here. Leanne tattooed my son and I. I can say we are very amazed at the customer service this establishment has and how they treated us like they knew us forever. Leanne took her time to get every detail right and her recommendations were spot on to achieve the look I was going for. She was very gentle and the the prices were very reasonable. I am looking forward to coming back to get more done from this wonderful place. Very clean and I watched them sanitize everything. You must come here! I dont even live in this town but will be coming back! Thank you Leanne!!
Jule is one of my go to tattoo artists! He has done multiple pieces for me! He does fantastic work! He’s light handed and pays attention to detail! He also shows a lot of patience with someone like me who has control issues and tends to move a lot to see what he is doing!! Also talks to you through the entire process so there’s never a dull moment! Highly recommend!
Angelica is my artist & has been my artist for a few years now. I am absolutely blown away by her work every single appointment. I really hit the jackpot going to Angelica. She takes the time to design pieces specific to what I like based on inspiration photos I send her way. She helps with placement & I always appreciate her honest opinion & feedback. I leave the shop feeling so happy with all my art. If you’re looking for an honest, hardworking fun artist look no further.
Been here since they’ve reopened post-hurricane, and all I can say is WOW!!! The changes they’ve made to Black Sails is extraordinary! The floors are redone, there’s 4 artists to choose from, and everyone is very welcoming! These people take pride in their studio- everything is clean and even the smell in the studio is clear. I love this place. Piercings, tattoos, and an almost endless amount of jewelry options? How much more could you ask for?! Stop in and meet everyone!
I always get my tattoos done by angelica she’s my go to artist, she does an amazing job with her work, with the details and time she puts into her art! everyone here is super friendly too makes you fit right in! this is one of my many pieces done by angelica
My friend and I wanted to get a small tattoo and when we walked in we didn’t know they closed in 30 minutes. We were going to leave, but Hope and Angelica said they would squeeze us in and stayed a little late to do our tattoos. Great customer service. Both ladies did an awesome job and everyone was very nice and friendly. Definitely come here!!
Sarah was fantastic! She took my vision and made it a reality. I can’t wait to come back for another. After my tattoos I decided on new ear piercings Chelsea was informative, helpful, quick but thorough.Loving all the work these ladies did.
Jule is the man you need to see. Great artist and a great guy overall. Made everything super easy and fun for my first tattoo
ASK FOR SARAH! Sarah is so amazing, especially for your first tattoo! She was comforting and personable, and did an amazing job! I got 4 small tattoos and my total was so reasonable! ($160, 1-2 inch tattoos) Extremely efficient as well, told her what I wanted and when I got there she already had multiple designs ready for me to choose from! I can’t thank her enough… So excited for them to heal!
Sarah is the person to go to for your tattoo! she did my first one today and she was so sweet and talks you through the entire thing!! Tina is also super knowledgeable about piercings and what to do with them 🩷
Absolutely the place to go!! Sarah is my go to artist and she’s absolutely amazing! They do quality and long lasting tattoos, very clean and fun environment! I’m happy with everything I’ve got done and will continue to go back everytime!
Sarah is the best! I got my first ever tattoo today and it was amazing! She has a great personality and makes you feel at home! I recommend Black Sails Tattoo an especially Sarah!
Sarah is amazing!! i always recommended her when people bring up wanting a tattoo. she creates an amazing environment when getting a tattoo and makes sure you know what she is doing and when she is doing it!! i have gotten 4 out of 5 of my tattoos done by her and she has always done an amazing job!! i will continue to go to her for all my tattoos in the future!!
Sarah did this beautiful tattoo for me and was so patient and so kind. Took about an hour, always made sure I was doing ok and if I needed a break since it was my first tattoo. Such a great environment too! 10/10 recommend!!! Definitely ask for Sarah
I went with my mom to get matching memorial tattoos and it was an amazing experience. Both Hope and Sarah are very welcoming and worked very quickly on our pieces.The shop is very clean and friendly, with reasonable prices.I will be going back for more work in the future.
LeeAnne was fantastic! She did an amazing job on mine and my daughters tattoos. Her art work was so perfect based of of my description! I highly recommend Black Sails and LeeAnne!
Absolutely love it here! sarah did my tattoos and did wonderful! so clean and welcoming 💚
Sarah was my tattoo artist! We were visiting from OOT and Had a couple hours to kill, let’s just say I would definitely drive back just to get a tattoo from her 😂😂. I came in with a friend that had never gotten a tattoo and Sarah walked her through the whole process! Made us feel very welcomed and did beautiful work! 10/10!!
This review is from my boyfriend who just got a tattoo with Jule. “Ill start off by saying the shop is super clean and all the artists are really friendly. Ive gotten 2 tattoos from Jule, and both times he has done an absolutely phenomenal job. He takes his time and takes a lot of pride in his work I would highly recommend him.”-Dom
Wow! What an experience…last minute let’s get matching tattoos to make a memory of my trip! Walked in and greeted by everyone…what a vibe!!! Great experience with Hope & Sarah!! Loving my new tattoo….thank you for helping making a forever memory!
Ive been tattooed by jule and pierced by shaun i dont trust any other studio! This place is a diamond in the rough. You simply must check it out!!!
The shop is always a good vibe and the LIGHTS! But as always Sarah always makes everything so comfortable but that’s no shock. shes always so fun and quirky in her own way but always remains super professional and informative. you never leave questioning anything. i also had the pleasure of getting worked on by Hope and let me tell you, light handed. tickled the whole time. easier than childbirth. 12/10
Love the artist here! They do an amazing job! Sarah has done 2 of my tattoos and 1 of my husbands! Hope has done both our arm tattoos! They are both very talented and we love our tattoos! Highly recommend you go check them out, you wont regret it!
Had 2 tattoos done same day by Sarah! She was amazing! She took my silly little traced sketch that was a memorial to a friend and turned it into something better than I could ever imagine! She was so patient and kind. Professional and her work was amazing! Will be going back for any more tattoos!
Got my Septum done today ans have nothing but good things to say about Chelsea and Sarah, Chelsea is very professional and friendly and pierces very well. Sarah was very easy to talk to about some tattoo ideas, even with my girlfriend and her mom too :) can’t wait to book with her!
Tina Stabz was the best! She made it quick & painless as possible, & was very precise! 5 stars all day, & definitely will be back again to see her for more piercings! ♡♡
Lee Anne Anderson was so grate with me n did a beautiful job on my ink thank you... Also the energy was so beautiful in there. Thats beautiful you dont find that every where else... To all staff that was there yesterday 7/5/24 thank you all you guys Rock...
I highly recommend Black Sails Tattoo! I booked with Sarah and she fixed up an existing tattoo that wasn’t quite right.. and she crushed it! I am so happy with the work. Now I’m going to have to come back and get some original work from her because Sarah rocks!
Sarah Colbert was awesome! I definitely recommend if you’re getting a tattoo then go see Sarah she has a very steady hand and very gentle! Thank you Sarah for calming my nieces before my tattoo!
LeAnn did an amazing job making me feel comfortable and informed and did perfect on the exact image I wanted.

She works extremely hard on all of her art and does a perfect job at bringing your vision to life! Highly recommend getting a tattoo from her and can’t wait to see her thrive at Black Sails!
The energy in this shop was great. Sarah has done multiple tattoos of mine and they are absolutely amazing, I actually just got two more done by her!
I’ve gotten several tattoos done by Jule and I absolutely love how they turned out. He takes his time to make everything is perfect and I always get so many compliments on them.
My cousin was here visiting we were at the beach all and then she decides let’s go get matching tattoos we literally walked in and we’re taking care of on the spot hope and Sarah were awesome would definitely recommend definitely good vibes
Ive had my bridge and septum pierced as well as a dermal done by Shaun and I love them all! Shaun is very professional and my piercings were painless and all of them look amazing! Vee has done a bunch of my tattoos and she does amazing work! All my tattoos are so clean and vibrant, and I cant wait to go back and get more tattoos by Vee! Overall, the shop is always very clean and welcoming! Everyone is awesome and very helpful as soon as you enter the shop! I will always go to Black Sails for piercings and tattoos!
Sarah Assisted in both my first and second piercings, (which I was terrified for!) by taking time out of her day to come and hold my hand. to say i was thankful was an understatement, considering she talked me through it the whole time! Literally such a sweetheart!!!
Go see Sarah she is the best! Great with fine lines and just an awesome person.
Sarah is absolutely amazing! Not only did she give me my favorite tattoo to date but she was so sweet and had great conversation the entire time she tattooed me! Will 100% be getting more tattoos done by her!!
Sarah is one of the SWEETEST artists i’ve ever met! she made the whole experience amazing overall and obviously she did a beautiful job on my piece!
Sarah was absolutely amazing to work with while getting my tattoo, she was super sweet and had a great personality and best of all she just does beautiful work. I will definitely be going back to her for more tattoos! 🤗
Absolutely amazing experience here from the artist Sarah, super chill atmosphere, amazing vibe from everyone who works here, and perfect end product left on my body. 10/10 would recommend
I had the BEST time ever today when Sarah tattooed me. she does absolutely amazing work made me very comfortable. will DEFINITELY be coming back!
Recently went in and got my calf done by sarah! she was so sweet and professional, consistently checking in to make sure i was doing okay. cannot wait to get more pieces done by her.
Excited for Sara to tattoo here!! She does a great job!
Leeanne was awesome and did a great job on tattoos for my mom and I, highly recommended. Go see her!
Clean, well lit, comfortable environment, and knowledgeable staff. Shaun is a perfectionist with his clients piercings. I genuinely dont know if I could trust anyone else. All the tattoo artists are amazing and extremely talented. Very highly recommend.
Amazing experience! They were able to squeeze me in last minute while my friend got a tattoo.
Went to get a piercing (which I also loved) and ended up getting a tattoo also by sarah, who overheard me describing a tattoo that I wanted and drew it up in a few minutes then asked if I wanted to get it today! I had the best experience there 10/10 would definitely recommend, especially sarah she really connects with her clients 😊attached ; photos of my tattoo as well as bonus photos of my piercing 😍
I finished my tattoo at this shop with Chris Peters. This shop is also a great little place. It’s pretty unassuming as you drive by. You’ll probably think “oh another generic strip mall tattoo shop” but trust me man go inside and check them out. They have great people working there that do great work. My artist moved here from sacred rights and I followed him over. If you want the best tattoo around go see Chris Peters. I’ve gotten a bunch of compliments on my tattoo. Can’t wait to get more.
Took daughter and her friend to get nose and belly button pierced and was impressed with the cleanliness and professionalism. Highly recommended
Great shop, Sarah is super talented and makes you feel very comfortable. Very knowledgeable and sweet. 10/10 would recommend

Professional establishment with an extremely talented staff! i was tattooed by vee and felt completely safe in her competent hands!she made sure i was happy with the placement, we made jokes, and i walked out of there with a high quality tattoo that has since healed beautifully. if youre in the area and in need of a tattoo artist to trust, i absolutely recommend vee!
Sarah did my tattoos and she is an amazing artist ❤️ my tats still havnt faded and the line work is amazing , if you are into dark art she’s right down your alley !!
My daughter just got her first tattoo by Hope and she loves it! Talked her thru the process and made her feel super comfortable. We will be back!

I had the most lovely experience with Sarah for my first tattoo, she was very patient, explained everything to me and answered all my questions she is and will be my go to artist when getting tattoos
Sarah was Amazing ! She freehanded one of my tattoos and it’s got to be one of my best ones! Love the Environment and space . Very welcoming!!
Great experience. Will be back! They take the time to make sure your satisfied!
I love going to black sails for my tattoos! Cant wait to come in soon and get tattooed by Sarah, I absolutely love her work!
I just got my first tatoo there. The shop was VERY clean. Dave - the artist that worked with me was very patient, and very kind to a 64 year old woman. He and I joked and laughed and got along nicely. I squeeked once and he reassured me we were in the home stretch. Great experience! Love my tattoo and will go there again if I decide on getting another one. Love the place, and love Dave. One tip- if youre older - bring your earphones and music.
So, I came in July 26th for these tattoos and my artist was Vee. Im an older person with delicate skin and I just feel that she was way to rough and as a result of this work, I had to visit my Dr because of the pain and drainage. My Dr. Diagnosed the skin on both legs. The one with Linus has cellulitis, and the heart has second to third degree burns. I Was given 3 different meds and have to go to tempest night to have these re worked. Im not going to be mean, but does this look like a good experience!
My BFF and I decided we wanted matching tattoos we walked into Black Sails Tattoo hoping they would take us they welcomed us with no problems at all! They were very helpful and friendly ! Made us feel right at home ! Jeff did our tattoos they turned out better than we hoped ! Next time I have that I NEED a new tattoo feeling I will be going to Black Sails Tattoo!
Sarah’s always been the best and is always my go to artist, she is the sweetest and always so supportive of anything you want done and her style is the cutest 💕
Sarah was very sweet and did an amazing job on the first part of my half sleeve. I love her ideas and I don’t feel pressured into doing anything I don’t want!
I got my dermal done from these people and it was an amazing experience and my piercing healed within 3 days
Great staff and always there to answer the phone for questions. Jule was great to work with and communication and design of the tattoo was awesome.
Awesome shop with talented artists. The new shop after the ian repairs is gorgeous.
Hope did an incredible job on my tattoos and would highly recommend. Awesome way to show remembrance of our Max.
Shaun did amazing on my vch piercing!! 10/10!! Very professional!!
I had a great experience, they did awesome on my destiny tattoo!
Artists are stellar and super personable. Clean line work. I highly recommend this spot if youre looking to get some work done. Also, they do piercings as well.
Hope is the GOAT!! Light handed, funny, makes the experience comfortable and easy going. Will be going to her always!
My 14 yr old daughter just got her nose pierced and we had the most incredible experience there. All the employees were welcoming and polite and made her feel comfortable
Amazing people, fantastic atmosphere. Currently sitting in the chair getting my work done by Mario. Its coming out absolutely stunning!! Will definitely be coming only here from now on. 😍
My wife and I went here recently to get tattoos. First of all, the staff is amazing! They are super friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Jule did our work and he was awesome. We came in with basic ideas and he added the artistic touch that took them over the top. They are also very knowledgeable in their field and give great advice. Very professional. I would 100% recommend and will be going back for my next tattoos. Thanks guys!
Got my armpit done by Sarah ! And I highly recommend, great atmosphere and will definitely be going back !
My experience at Black Sails Tattoo was amazing. The artist That did my tattoo was Jule Rutherford. I came in with an open mind and showed him a design of what I wanted but told him to make it completely his own and he did just that. It came out beautifully and original. I’m very pleased!! He did my very first mother daughter tattoo wonderfully and I scheduled for my shoulder tattoo the next day!!! Wonderful work of art truly!
Have gotten several tattoos here and I won’t go anywhere else. You can tell the staff are close with each other by the friendly banter they sling around. Everyone does whatever they can to make you feel comfortable. I’ve gotten my tattoos done by Vee and she’s the girl! I’ve seen the others artists work while in the shop & everyone is extremely talented. If you’re looking for a friendly welcoming no judgement shop this is it. They’ll have an artist who can do what you’re looking for at a good price.
Vee is amazing! She is very fun and easy going and took the time to make my design exactly perfect for me. This was my first bigger tattoo and she took time and care to make the experience wonderful. I’ll be back for sure!!
Thai is the best hands down. I havent laughed so hard in a long time. Customer service is top notch too. Their alwayss ready and answer with in no time. Also has piercings done and hes great with kids too! Definitely would recommend.
I never do reviews, but Im still blown away at how well my experience went. I got my nipples pierced and Ive been wanting them done for along time, but to scared. Shaun who did my piercing made me feel comfortable and safe. I will be going to them for all piercing. Ill even be bringing my daughters for there ears. Thank you so much. I have no pain just discomfort. Thank you!!!!! Youre great at what you do!!! Very comforting and polite!!!
So fresh and soo clean clean no it smells so nice … wow great place, the piercer Shaun is top notch !
The atmosphere at this shop is great. Everyone is professional and welcoming! I got my tattoo done by Vee and she did an amazing job. She took what I wanted and made it better with her knowledge and skill. If you are looking to get any work done their artists have a wide variety of style and skills, definitely check them out!
I can’t recommend black sail tattoo enough! Visited on vacation for a week and they were able to work with me in between appointments to do 10 hours worth of work! Tyler was great to work with, incredible work and an extremely talented artist! If you are looking to get any pieces done, absolutely to visit black sail!
Had an amazing walk in experience! David did two tattoos for me, both were extremely well executed and well designed from what I brought in. My friend also got one, and they came out amazing! Super friendly staff that made us feel comfortable and great prices! Super happy to have gotten my third and fourth tattoo from here.
Great experience each time. Spotlessly clean, organized, professional, and everyone is always so friendly. Shaun did a piercing for me & he is fantastic. He made sure I was comfortable & gave me excellent after care instructions. Definitely worthy of 5+ stars! Check them out!
Got my night mare before Christmas sleeve worked on hop did amazing job
Immediately walking into black sails I felt welcomed and comfortable. I was greeted and sat within 5 min of doing my paperwork. My artist was V, and let me tell you, I feel like Ive know her my whole life with how comfortable she made me, And dont even get me started about the quality of the tattoo!!! I left black sails feeling more confident about myself and I was super pleased with their service! Ive gone back for three more since and each time V has exceeded all expectations.
I took my friend here yesterday for her first piercing! Shaun was excellent and informative! He also help change out my nose studs as well! I just moved to this area and was looking for piercers, I will definitely be coming back here for my all my future piercings. Clean atmosphere and friendly staff.
The shop was clean and the artists were great. They were super honest and even talked my friend out of placement of a certain tattoo because of fading. I will definitely be going back for more. Tyler did my tattoo and helped me design exactly what I wanted based on a drawing I brought in.
I recently had a memorial piece done here and the artist was Vee. She was absolutely fantastic. Not only did she tattoo exactly what I was looking for she made my experience flawless and memorable. I will always recommend her and I will be back for more very soon.
Vee is an AMAZING artist and I love her work! Everyone in the shop is friendly and quite fun to talk with! They all do an amazing job, and if I didnt live across the world (got one over summer while visiting home) I would definitely have more tattoos!
Got my first tattoo here and I made the right choice. Jule was so friendly, easy to talk to, and did an absolutlly amazing job on my wifes tattoo and my tattoo. Hope and Shaun were also extremely friendly and made us feel welcomed. The prices were great too and a very clean and welcoming environment.
I’ve gotten various piercings from Shaun over the years, he is the only person I will go to for a piercing! He’s awesome & always makes my experience easy. I’ve gotten a tattoo by Tyler & he did such a great job I’m still inlove w/ it & get so many compliments! The shop all around is amazing & I recommend them to anyone !
I have received a tattoo from both Gena and Vee, they are both fantastic artists. Very professional and wonderful in this filed. The shop is clean and well organized. It’s nice walking in there not being overwhelmed at any given time.Vee did an amazing job being able to get my grandparents handwriting perfect to make the perfect tattoo to remember my grandmother and my late grandfather so I can always carry them.And Gena did a fantastic job giving my sister and myself our gorgeous matching tattoos as well as touching up an old tattoo that was not done very well.I appreciate these two and will always come back. Did I mention we drive TWO HOURS just to see these girls? Fantastic all around! Everyone in the shop is super nice and accommodating.
I first came in as a walk in for a Friday the 13th tattoo back in December with Gena. Today I came back for another small tattoo. It’s gorgeous! Gena was really patient at all of my appointments — I’m really “particular” so we moved the stencil around a few times until the pieces fit in nicely with other tattoos on my legs. She was also really accommodating when I needed to reschedule due to a last minute emergency. I definitely plan on going back to Gena at Black Sails!
Sarah is fantastic!! Best tattoos I’ve ever had
Shop and personnel are amazing! Ive been back twice.
In the past 3 months I gotten a piercing and tattoo at Black Sails. I would recommend this shop to anyone! The shop is clean and the guys are beyond friendly. Shaun is a piercing extraordinaire and David is a tattooing genius. Both time I visited the shop I was so comfortable. The atmosphere is very chill and the company amazing. I would give them 10 stars if I could 👌🏻
After visiting many tattoo shops along 41, I chose Black Sails because of their clean atmosphere over everyone else. They were very professional and made me feel at ease getting my first tattoo. Tyler was great, he adjusted my design to fit exactly what I was looking for and had no problem taking me as a walk in.
Got my tongue pierced by Shaun, I absolutely love it. Everyone is professional and friendly. Will go there from now on for any piercings/tattoos.Edit: Went back again for my bridge piercing back in August, I love it. Went back today with some friends at two different times. First time, I got under eye dermals and my septum reopened, friend got the side of her nose. We all went back about half an hour before closing time and my other friend was able to get his eyebrow done. Always clean, professional, and exactly where I want to go to get any work like this done. Cannot recommend enough.
Hope was fantastic! I’m so excited to get more ink done by her!
Everything about my experience at Black Sails was FANTASTIC! My artist, Vee, was especially wonderful! She did great work, was extremely professional, and just an overall super cool person. She and the rest of the crew there made my experience a great one. I can’t recommend this place enough! Thanks for the awesome experience Vee!
Hope did an excellent job, will definitely be back! Thank you so much!!
Everyone at the shop is super chill and I love my tattoo! Jule is an amazing artist and very knowledgeable. He truly cares about his work and it shows. You wont be disappointed so schedule an appointment already!
I had been drawing three dot on my arm to remind me to calm down, and on a whim decided to get it tattood. Tyler not only squeezed me in but did an amazing job. He was extremely professional and very chill. The shop was inviting and clean, would absolutely go back.
I had a great experience here at Black Sails. Everyone there was just really nice and great conversations. My artist was Daniel and he did a fantastic job on my tattoo. I am very pleased. Give Black Sails a shot......I doubt youll be disappointed.
Me and my friend walked in to see if there was anyone available to do a tattoo on each of us... Gena greeted us and immediately got the process started. Gena is super personable (which I haven’t always had with a tattoo artist) and also talented. She made our tattoos better than we originally planned.
Hope did an amazing job with my tattoo I could not be happier with it. Amazing
Absolutely fantastic artists. All of them. Piercings to Tattoos, personalities and talent! You will Not be disappointed!
Wakes in with a very friendly welcome, my tattoo artist knew exactly what I wanted and was just a great artist. I will be recommending this place to all my friends. No wait time at all and very professional:)Also do piercings as well❤️
Husband got the roll n go pokemon tattoo with my daughters name on his leg. I was worried it was gonna be a cheap rush job like you find at so many tattoo places with these roll n gos. I was blown away. Hubs got a great tattoo. It looks sick!! Thank you! ❤️
I went to Level five yesterday and had some tattoos recolored and also added to. I was pleased with my experience. No complaints. Zae did the work and I was totally happy, the next time I need any work done I will definitely come back as a return customer. Not to mention I contacted 5 shops in the area and for what I had done they all quoted me a higher price than I paid total tip and all at level five. I thought everyone was professional and I felt comfortable here.
Tattoo artist Tyler Gray did a decent sized piece on my leg and did an amazing job, made me feel extremely comfortable and the piece came out awesome. Black and Grey work grim reaper. I would definitely recommend coming into the shop if you want some fantastic art work done by great people.
My friend and I both got piercings done by Shaun and had a great experience. We were walk ins for the Black Friday special and were able to be taken right away he was nice and the shop was clean and pleasant. I would defiantly recommend Shaun and Black Sails tattoo.
I absolutely LOVE black sails tattoos !! They are so professional and make the experience super welcoming & comfortable ! One of my FAV artist are Vee weeks ! She made my experience so fun and I am Inlove with her work ! Can’t wait to go back !
On vacation and decided a tattoo was in order, did some research and came across Black Sails Tattoo.... what a great choice! Hope did an amazing job, quick and painless! ;) Jule and Hope made it a great time! Kept us laughing all night. 4 tattoos in about 2 hours....AMAZING! I will be back!
Black Sails is my favorite tattoo shop. Shaun did both my Medusa and my Labret piercings and they turned out great, no complications. He’s very gentle and tells you everything you need to keep it clean. I definitely suggest going to him for your piercing needs. 😍
Vee did two of my tattoos and I am absolutely in love with her work I get so many compliments! Super clean shop and super friendly staff who make your experience 100x better ! Vee is extremely personable with her work & runs amazing deals!! Can’t wait for her to do more of my tattoos !!
My friend and I had Celtic friendship tatoos today on our wrists. Jule did a fantastic job. He was very nice and professional. He does amazing work. We highly recommend Jule!Joanne and Linda
Walked in to get my nose pierced with no appointment and Shaun got me right in. Everyone there was super friendly and professional. Shaun was very nice, explained what he was going to do before hand and explained aftercare with me as well, very good at what he does. He even said hed change my jewelry when it was time. Definitely recommend Shaun for any piercing you might need.
Recently pierced by Shaun. He was amazing. Clean. Precise. Informative. Comfortable. I stopped in to check them out a few days prior and got a good vibe as soon as I walked in. Relaxed environment. Friendly artists. Highly recommend for first timers or veterans.
Went in today to do the gumball machine tattoo and I must say I am super pleased, my artist was Tyler gray and so far he has to be my favorite artist ! He sat and talked not once did I feel out of place or uncomfortable and his work was amazing.he not only gave me what was on the sheet but he made it his own! I did not expect to get so much shading and detail out of a $60 tattoo but he blew my mind and I couldnt be happier
I have been coming to Black Sails for my tattoos and piercings since they became Black Sails. Ive had work done by many of the artists here and each one is so very talented. Shaun is the best piercer Ive been to and I wont trust anyone but him in the future.
The person who did my piercing was very professional! it was sterile and precise and exactly what I wanted. I always feel a little out of place going to tattoo parlors but the staff was friendly and made me feel welcome. just got my first facial piercing and i’m absolutely in love with it :)
Amazing Place amazing people for your first or next tattoo I recommend going to Black Sails and asking for Thai he did an amazing job last-minute idea to go get a tattoo walked in with an idea picture of what I wanted set an appointment to return later that day at 5 p.m. and he customized it made it his own and it is gorgeous also touched up the name on my wrist came out beautiful
I have had a great experience with both Vee for tattoos, and with Hannah, Shauns apprentice. The vibe and the professionalism within shop is incredible. 10/10
My sister and i went into black sails yesterday to get matching tattoos by Mario. I have to say it was the best experience i’ve had with a tattoo artist. He’s super nice and he explains everything in detail. Amazing work and clean lines. Thank you Mario for making our tattoos look amazing!
Jule never disappoints with whatever weird idea I come up with.
Very welcoming and comfortable atmosphere! Awsome artist and awsome vibes all around ! I’m In love with the tattoo I got from the artist Vee weeks!! she was so fun and sweet and made my experience so perfect ! I can’t wait to go back and get another one ! 10/10 recommend!!!!
Had an amazing day here yesterday, got two tats done, two+ to go, totally an all around amazing atmosphere. The staff are amazing and knowledgeable about their craft, the best place to go for quality work. I will be back, soon.
First visit. What a great environment. Hope did my tattoo and it is amazing. She has a great personality and would definitely be back to her for my next. Anyone wanting a great tattoo, go to Black Sails Tattoo in Port Charlotte, Florida.
This was my first tattoo and The designer I have was amazing. He was very talkative which helped my anxiety and every time it hurt he would stop and make sure I was okay to proceed. I will defiantly come back to this tattoo shop and get tattoos in the future. The artist that I had was Jule.
I’ve come here for 3 of my piercings and Shaun is AMAZING. I don’t know how he does it so effortlessly and with little to no pain but he does. Not going anywhere else but here for my future piercings.😊
Got a tattoo today at Black Sail. Tattoo artist was Vee. Awesome experience. Very professional and gentle. Art work was excellent!! Will be back soon for more ink by Vee. Thanks
Shaun is by far the best piercer in our area. No matter if its a new piercing or jewelry change, hell always have my business. Very clean shop and workspace, professional and knowledgeable.
Profesional and kind staff! The environment is clean and welcoming. Tattoo artist, Vee, was fun to work with and made the painful process amazing. Ive even brought my mom to get tattooed by Vee. I will recommend to all! 😁
Amazing experience. They were able to fit us in day of with a time constraint. Very easy to work with and made the experience enjoyable! V was exceptional and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. Highly recommend them!
I walked in today with no appointment to have my six year olds ears pierced. Shaun answered all of our questions, helped my daughter stay calm through the whole thing and took care of us right away.Would recommend to others and would go here again if I ever have another child that needs their ears pierced safely.
My whole experience was awesome. Everyone in the shop was polite. But my artist Tyler Gray was super Professional and i couldnt have been more happy with my tattoo i will be seeing tyler again.
Awesome vibe and wonderful people. 10/10 would recommend. I see V pretty frequently for new art and could not rave enough about her and the entire atmosphere of the shop. Dont hesitate to get in here and get your new art. 💜💜💜
My mom and I got pierced by Sean yesterday and he made my moms first piercing experience very peaceful. He has a gentle hand too 10/10 would recommend. Owned and operated by kick ass people
A friend and myself went in yesterday to get new piercings, Im usually picky about who/where I get body art done and this shop was very professional, clean, and reasonably priced. I WILL be recommending to anyone who asks. Thanks again for the awesome piercings!
Great group of artists that are willing to do the extra for a great experience. Darian does great work and Im really happy with how my newest tattoo turned out! I strongly suggest you stop in and see what they can do for you!
Rob did my daughters piercings and was awesome! Not one ounce of pain! Im so happy with this place and will frequent for my own personal tattoos! Thanks Black Sails & team!
I saw V for my thigh piece and she and everyone else in the shop were so friendly and inviting. V did a great job on my piece and she worked with me through it very well. Highly recommend!
Great shop! Friendly, welcoming and do great work. Tyler was my artist. He did my tattoo dedication to the baby I lost and I love it! Highly recommend.
Vee is doing a cover-up on me that is much needed. This is the start of the process. Finished tattoo photo to come soon.
Jayson does some of the best traditional work I have ever seen, I also love the cleanliness and atmosphere of the shop and the fact that the staff is very friendly and down to earth. Great quality tattoos and piercings and Black Sails PC!
Definitely recommend black sails for all of your tattoo and piercing needs!! All my ink and piercings Ive gotten since moving to Florida have been here and for good reason!! The staff is awesome and laid back and they to good work to, its a place you can feel comfortable to walk into for a tattoo or piercing which is hard to find in alot of shops, definitely recommend.
I came in to see if they would be able to touch up a tattoo I had previously. Matt did a great job of walking through the different options with me. Im extremely happy with how it turned out!
I went in to get my first tattoo and everyone was so friendly. I made an appointment with Vee, she made me feel relaxed and comfortable. It was overall a great and fun experience:)
SUCH A AMAZING SHOP! Ive been there a good couple of times now ranging from piercings to getting tattooed, and Ill just keep coming back! They have an amazing atmosphere and the artist are phenomenal!
Best experience with an artist Ive had. Mario mackiewicz is the bomb. Highly recommend him and this shop. I also got a piercing done here. Nearly pain free. All around great people here.
Shaun was awesome with my daughters belly button piercing!! :) great deals for Black Friday!!! My daughter was soooo nervous for her piercing but didn’t even feel it at all!!!! She didn’t even know it was done!!!! Thanks Shaun!! Will be back!!
Im very pleased with the quality and professionalism of my new tattoo. It was one of my best experiences yet and I would highly recommend Black Sails Tattoo to anyone wanting some new ink, I will defiantly be going back soon. Thanks again
Got my first and second tattoo ever here and it was such an amazing experience. I had Hope as my artist. It was very calm and chill and the whole experience was very enjoyable. Can’t wait to go back for my next one
Joe did my tattoo. He is by far the best artist there is anywhere around. Ive gone to other shops for other work and hands down there is no comparison. Very professional, clean and friendly. Thanks. Ill definitely only go to level 5 for now on.
Ive had a couple of piercings done by Shaun and everytime theyre done quickly and he covers all bases with aftercare. Id recommend Shaun and all the tattoo artists at black sails to anyone. Class act business.
Vee was incredible for the 5 fine line tattoos I got! She worked with me until the designs were exactly what I wanted and her line work is amazing! Highly recommend!
Black Sails tattoo is an awesome shop with great people to be around......Ray and Shaun had me laughing the entire time I was there. The shop is very clean and the prices are very reasonable. I will be back soon for another tattoo by Ray Paponetti. 😊
I’ve gotten my cheeks, bridge, and belly button pierced from this shop and it’s always a great experience shaun is really professional and always makes my piercings look great and I love the upgraded jewelry options they offer! I will always choose this shop for piercings!
Super cool staff!! Definitely affordable prices and ink work is the BEST!! Travis is the cover up King!! Definitely going back for more ink! So if your on vacation or just live here I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND GOING HERE!!!
I got my nostril pierced for my birthday this year and they were professional and made the environment feel super comfortable, it’s been about a month and it’s healing beautifully!! thanks so much
Clean, amazing artists. They listen to your questions, great environment. Terrific energy. Jule did my chest piece ( started it ) and I could not be happier with the work.
Sean is the only trusted piercer in Port CharlotteAnd my daughter had her first tattoo done there and they made it a really great experience for her.
Yes I definitely would recommend , Jule just started an amazing piece on me and can’t wait to continue this creative journey with him. And the atmosphere is very friendly, they hold great conversation!
Went to Tyler Gray at Black Sails today for a matching tattoo with my mom. Did such an awesome job. Super gentle and helpful. Will go back for sure
I have been to both Vee and Jule here for tattoos, they are awesome! Everyone here is super friendly and professional, they also have a great sense of humor!
Was very disappointed with Tyler. My husband had listed an old motorcycle on “buy, sell, trade” through Facebook, Tyler had contacted him offering a trade. He proposed a full sleeve tattoo for the bike that my husband was selling. I felt a little uneasy about this only because tattoos are permanent thing and so I told my husband to really look into him to make sure that he was good. After his first appointment, the outlined and everything looked good. He had only done from the wrist area to about 4 inches below the elbow. My husband is sometimes unfortunately a very trusting man and he believes that there’s good in this world which there can be but I have come to find that a lot of people are not very trustworthy nor good. So my husband goes in for his second appointment and this time he brings the bike trusting that Tyler is going to finish the tattoo. After this appointment my husband came home and told me that he had given the bike to Tyler, I of course was very mad about this because I said you should never give somebody something until you receive the full payment but he said “no worries I feel like I can trust him”. After Tyler had received the bike things started to become very shady. He would not respond my husbands messages or they would set up appointments and Tyler would bail last minute. A month or so had gone by with no word from Tyler and so I told my husband to contact him and to see what was going on and when they could do another appointment for the tattoo, my husband then received a message from Tyler and He was saying that he wanted money for the tattoo from now on, he wanted my husband to pay for supplies and start giving him some money for his time. I was obviously outraged by this because there was a verbal contract and technically written since it was all over Facebook messenger that there would be a trade, a full sleeve for the bike. My husband responded to his message by saying “no, we had an agreement I would give you the motorcycle for a full sleeve.” Tyler then blocked my husband on Facebook messenger. It just goes to show you can’t trust people. Now my husband has an unfinished tattoo on the lower part of his arm and we’re going to have to pay someone to finish it. I am very disappointed in Tyler’s honesty and character. Stealing is a felony. And that’s pretty much what he did.
Pretty cool. They do good work. First time and they treated me well. Zack did a great job on my tatts
I got my tattoo done by David and couldnt be happier. The shop was clean, the people are helpful and friendly. David is extremely detailed oriented and my tattoo came out perfect. Thank you!
Awesome shop with a great staff. Amazing artists doing amazing tattoos if your in Port Charlotte this is the only shop to go to. If youre not in Port Charlotte it looks like you need to take a ride.
Zae has done several of my tattoos now and all have turned out amazing. Rob the body piercer was cool as hell. He even blew fire in the parking lot. Over all a great time in a great place
Shaun pierced my Tragus and Rook. He was beyond gentle and very professional. He definitely knows what he’s doing. Will be going back for any future piercings I desire.
**editI changed it from two to five stars because they did call me back and offered to fix/redo the piercing. He was very nice about the whole situation and didnt make me feel bad for disliking how it turned out or my opinion on the piercing.
I went when they were doing palm size tattoos for $50 in late October. Everyone was very friendly and my tattoo turned out perfect. Very clean environment as well. Highly recommend
This is an amazing location with very friendly and talented artists!!! Tyler Gray has done most of my tattoos and he’s fantastic at what he does!!! I highly recommend Black Sails!
Gena White did a great job and I am beyond happy with her work. Please go see her and let her ink you up. 100% reccomend her for anyone looking to have a great artist to have your work done.
I appreciate how good they are with communication and working on giving you exactly what you want in your tattoo, ik Im very happy with how mine turned out.
I love this shop its sooo clean and the people are great ! Biggest thanks to Jason with my traditional tattoos ,his work is honestly the best I have ever had !! And he has a great personality!!
Great price, really clean place. Shaun does a good job, I got a cartilage and it was a simple in-and-out procedure. Heres to getting piercings out of state
Just got my third tattoo from Jule. It looks amazing, just like the other two! I reccomend him to everyone. Hes a wonderful artist and cares about his clients.
Very polite and professional, great atmosphere, and clean shop 👌
Just got my second tattoo here, love them both! Great staff and environment. I will for sure being coming back again soon for more.
My girl got a Mew tattoo done by Hope and it looks amazing. Everything was very sanatary, and Hope was very professional and we talked about anime the whole time. Any anime related tattoos you want to get go to Hope she is the best.

Great place, prices and staff. Had tattoo done by Jule. Very talented and pays attention to detail. Very happy with outcome and will return.
I went and got some work Vee had drawn up. Im more than thrilled with the outcome! I loved the environment and everyone was kind! 10/10 would recommend!
Shaun is definitely the best! He pierced my nose and he did it so effortlessly by not hurting me at all! Great experience😀
