Paign City Tattoo

Jessica has done my double nostril piercing in the past and they both healed beautifully. i would recommend her bc she’s very professional and have a positive attitude. she’s a sweet person when you get to know her. they didn’t even hurt that much. maybe 3/10 pain level. i can’t wait to get more piercings done by her (:

Just got some ink yesterday from KK! Not fully complete yet, but so in love with how it looks. Healing before the second session is going well. Highly recommend getting a portrait done by KK he’s super talented!! Thank you Paign City!

My daughter and I wanted to get our family tattoo for her 21st birthday. Tevin was our artist and he did an amazing job! He was fast, reasonably priced, and most importantly, he gave us beautiful tattoos. His linework is spot on and we couldnt be happier. Well be going back in the future for sure.

Jessica has been my go to for about 5-6 years now. Shes done 12 of my piercings over the years. I can’t imagine going to anyone else. She has always made me feel comfortable and confident about her work. All piercings have healed perfectly. I would recommend her to anyone considering any piercing!

TEVIN true artist 100%. He was so down to earth and just simply a pleasant to sit with an talk to while hes inking your skin. Truly thankful for the tattoo he did for me. Especially since its for my daughters. And he knew all about family. Which was even better. We will be going back and will be recommending him to anyone who wants to be inked with ART! 🎨 excited to see his growth as a artist as well. Forever growing an learning..

Jessica is amazing. I have been getting pierced by her for over 10 years. Everything she has done has healed amazing and I have had no issues. She is the best Im even going to drive 1 1/2 hours to have her pierce me again. LOVE HER !!!

My boyfriend and I got pierced by Jessica and it was the most pleasant and professional experience we had with any piercer EVER. She is very kind and extremely knowledgeable in what she does on top of being extremely clean with her equipment, she will make sure you feel comfortable and relaxed the entire time. I will DEFINITELY be going to her for my next ones. Give her a visit! She’s amazing!!

Jessica is the most amazing piercer that I have ever been to! She has been piercing me for the last 13 years and I would never go to anyone else. She has done my belly button, daith, rook, nipples, and multiple cartilage piercings. I have sent numerous of my friends to her and every single one of them have left a happy customer. I can’t say enough great things about her!

Jessica Lane pierced my septum 3 years ago and I couldnt be more in love with it. She takes the time to explain the process and goes over any questions or concerns. Jessica has a calming and professional demeanor. I honestly couldnt have had anyone better do my piercing.

Jessica who does piercings does the best there is! I’ve only gone to her for all of mine! She’s literally the sweetest human too. I will never go anywhere else! She literally does everyone’s piercings that are close to me so she knows what she’s doing! Love you girl!!

Jesssssssica is an amazing. She pierced both sides of my nose, my septum, my Medusa, and my double lip !!! She is so professional I’m always nervous to get a new piercing lol and she always reassures me it’ll be alright!!! She is the only one that has ever pierced me and none of them ever got infected or rejected!! She’s awesome u def want a piercing from her!!! She’s really great at her job and literally the best. I will be traveling to see her to do my dermal💟

Jessica is the BEST! She’s done all my piercings. Never had to worry about rejection everything has healed PERFECTLY! Book with her! She’s very reliable and helpful!

Their piercer, Jessica is absolutely amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable. Shes professional! She did all 5 of my piercings in 2020.

Their piercer is the best. she did two of my piercings and she was quick to respond to my questions. I would not trust anyone else with my piercings. get pierced by her. i guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Tevin did an amazing job! My mom booked us for matching tattoos, and he killed it! I walked away, loving my new tattoo, and he was fast and efficient. Tevin was super friendly and gave my mom and I an unforgettable experience. The shop was clean and the environment was friendly!

Jessica lane is phenomenal! i’ve had a multitude of piercings done by her over the years. i’ve had my tongue, snake bites, both eyebrows, and both nostrils done by jessica and i wouldn’t want to go to anyone else! highly recommend jessica for any of your piercing needs! :)

I got my piercings done by Jessica and she is very nice and patient when doing it, she explains the care for healing very well, 100% recommended

I’ve had two tattoos done by Tevin and both were great experiences. Amazing work, healing process, and person. Can’t wait to get more done by him!

Tevin has done all 6 of my tattoos and an arm sleeve! He’s one of the best artist I’ve seen, with the way the work turns out amazing, to making you feel as comfortable as you can be, to giving you exactly what you want! 10/10 he’s the only artist my husband and I will go too!

My husband and I got matching tattoos by Tevin, he did an amazing job. This was my first tattoo and I felt comfortable the entire time and it didnt hurt much. The atmosphere is also great. We had great conversations with Tevin and Ray, the other tattoo artist in the shop.

Ray Allen & KK did amazing work.Awesome job making my wife comfortable.We love you both!Shaunna & Ryan

Tevin is absolutely amazing! Super welcoming and a very chill atmosphere. He is definitely my go to artist from here on out.

Jessica is the best person to do your piercings!!! She is amazing at what she does.

Just got inked and Tevin is a true artist and professional. The line work is flawless and he added color splashes to give it pop! Smooth and painless! Thanks Tevin

I came as a walk in and the shop worked to fit me in immediately, which in my experience is a little unheard of. I saw Tevin, who was probably the nicest most respectful tattooist I’ve seen in my 25 years of tattoos. His fine line work is quick and extremely accurate, he clearly stated price and size options, he did quick computer work to manipulate my photo idea and make a pattern. 10:10 would recommend.

If youre anything like me then youre here to read reviews and make a decision to either A.)choose a tattoo artist B.) Find a reason not to actually go with K.k as your tattoo artist. I take my reviews very serious. With that been said lets begin. On first appearance the location is kind of hidden but cant miss the Paign City sign. Upon walking in, the powder blue walls are uplifting, the aromatic scent of disinfectant cleaner is very relaxing and calming. The slow jams of the old school tunes ( the stuff that if you got any soul youll be tempted to move) playing in the background. The walls are covered by the culture that drives K.k ( Hand drawn portrait of Jay z,T.I, 80s picture of some young boys on Southside of Chicago sitting on an old school gangsta car). The environment is great. Enough seats for a couple of people to sit, so bring a friend. He has a bathroom available for his inksters. Would I recommend to others? The art speaks for itself. He is very passionate about his work, all his work cant be duplicated because its unique. K.K is very professional. I cant think of a better place to get a tattoo. Most of all hes a father, A god fearing man, and this is his business. A Black Owned business. I support the guys who choose to get it the right way. Prices are very very reasonable also. 5 out of 5 stars🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Jessica has done many of my piercings. I wouldn’t want to go to anyone else.

Tevin is seriously the best! i’ve gotten two tattoos by him and his station is so clean, he’s so professional, and they’ve both come out great! he’s quick to get you in and the place has a great vibe! couldn’t recommend paign city more!

Tevin did a cover up on one of my tattoos and did an AMAZING job. his work is truly admirable. I didn’t think covering up this tattoo would be easy or look good but he put together a piece so quickly and did such a good job. i’ve gotten so many compliments. He listened to everything i said i wanted and did just that!! His floral work is so beautiful!

Hello! For me to give a review that means the service was too notch! As a marketing manager I highly highly recommend Tevin at Paign City! He is very well educated when it comes to tattoos, he has excellent customer service, and I’m planning my next tattoo with him. If anyone is is seeking an artist please see Tevin!

Got tattoos with my roommates for Friday the 13th Everyone there was so kind and welcoming. Our tattoo artist talked to us about the history of the area which was a cool history lesson. Would recommend to anyone looking to get a tattoo in the area!

I love the atmosphere, the guess are so nice, informative and my daughter will be getting her first tattoo here

I went to K.K for my first tattoo and I loved it! It took me a long time to get a tat I’ve always been scared but he made me feel so comfortable and the aura of the shop is super chill. His work is flawless and his free hand is amazing! Needless to say that since my first tattoo I’ve gotten two other ones from him! I highly recommend this shop if you are looking for QUALITY tattoos in a nice professional environment.

Have had several tattoos done here. K is always professional, and holds the highest standard of cleanliness that I have seen. He not only listens to his clients but also works with them to create there dream tattoo and ensure they are nothing but happy. Quality and value is second to none. Will definitely being going back again and would recommend to anyone I know without a shadow of doubt. Easily place artist in the region.

I waited Four years for this particular tattoo. A piece close to my heart. Ray Allen did an amazing job capturing my story. The passion he put in my tattoo was Incredible from the drawing to the completion was the best experience and cant wait for my next piece to see what he can come up with. His artistic ability is amazing. If your tattoo tells a story he can create the piece. Thank you Ray Allen for the best experience and a amazing tattoo. See you soon.

I go to Ray Allen for all my tattoos. He never disappoints. He is always polite, charges fairly for quality of work and professionalism. His studio space is organized and always clean. He cleaned before and after my session and constantly washed his hands (with glove changes). I would recommend him to anyone!

Got an amazing tattoo from Ray Allen! Professional but also very friendly. I was able to walk in and he made me a custom piece in the same day. 5 ⭐️ quality & artist. If you need a A+ tattoo I highly recommend Ray Allen.

My new tattoo home. I’ve been to several different places in the area for years and never found anyone I loved. KK did an amazing job! The tattoo really came alive with his creativity and skill. Paign city tattoo is very clean, friendly, honest, welcoming, and there is a wealth of knowledge and experience. Highly recommend!

Really really needed some needle therapy, so I searched around for an opening and they had one! Ray did not disappoint one bit! The shading is beautiful, and the lines on his work are super clean. 10/10 reccomend if youre looking for a good, reasonable tattoo shop that makes you feel at home.

Tevin did my tattoo and Im obsessed. it looks so good. He was so friendly to me and my friends and did an amazing job. 100% recommend going here! Never going anywhere else again!

I was really impressed with the service that I received here. Not only is K.K. a GREAT tattoo artist, but he was very professional as well as amicable. He can draw very well and the art that my fiancé and I wanted was done PRECISE and even better because the artist added his own touch to add something else that we requested. His prices are so reasonable and I recommend that you tip him because he is a lot cheaper than most places in town and I dont think they are as good as him. Maybe I am being a little bias on that part, however he is VERY good. It was my first tat and I am impressed with the services.

K.K is an extremely talented artist. Every piece I bring to him he executes in the most prestigious way. He cares for his clients and makes sure that you and whoever you’re with is comfortable when you go to his shop. I bring all of my friends to him whenever talks of a tattoo come about. He’s definitely the man for the job no matter how complex your piece is. 10/10 would recommend!

Gave the shop a chance because of a deal & google rating. 1 Tattoo came out alright, definitely getting one removed though. The experience here wasnt like in other professional shops Ive been to. Guy draws on tattoos with a sharpie instead of tracing what u give him and then printing it on your arm, causes tattoo to be less sharp/neat they come out a bit off and look more free handed/messy.Update 2023: still hate it

Paign City is 1 of the best in 217. Ive received several tattoos from here and each time KK has amazed me with his work. I love how i can give him an idea and he comes up with this awesome piece of art. Very clean and professional. Highly recommend .

I have been tattooed multiple times by KK and never have I left the shop anything but satisfied and excited about my new added art work 😁. Kk was very professional and made sure he did my tattoos just the way i wanted. Actually better! 🤗. The shop was clean and well organized! Just GOOD VIBES all around. Also his equipments up to date! Thank you KK! and I will definitely be getting more work done in the future and for sure a portrait.

Tevin is the man!! I got a tattoo here with him, incredibly personable and friendly guy. Great conversation and a great quality tattoo, Im definitely coming back here again!

KKs lettering is beautiful. He was professional & very respectful. Conversation was great as well. He assessed the other tattoos that I have & offered suggestions to improve upon them. Ill definitely be back & I highly reccomend him.

I got my first tattoo here and KK was so incredibly nice and considerate! His work is amazing, Id definitely recommend checking him out!

KK is a very talented tattoo artist! One of the CLEANIST tattoo artist Ive ever encountered, very dedicated & serious about the quality of his work. Most importantly he cares about keeping costs affordable, while pleasing his customers. Wish I had met him 4 tattoos ago!

I have many tattoos by many other artist but K.K. is the only artist that has my business from now on. The Precision to detail that he does is absolutely amazing! He captures the exact image that your wanting and goes beyond that especially his free hand is on point. I always recommend him to my friends and family and you should do the same. K.K. is a ink therapy guru!

Best tattoo artist in town!!! Affordable prices!! KKs attention to detail is like none other... Highly recommend checking out Paign City Tattoos for all your tattoo needs big or small!! Amazing Realism and best portraits I’ve ever seen!!! I’ll definitely be going back!!

I got a tat from K.K and I was so pleased with my experience there. Not only did much tattoo come out great but he was so nice the whole time. I am pretty scared of needles so he talked to me while doing it so I felt more comfortable. Highly recommended, great experience, even better tattoos.

Very clean environment. KK uses a sharpie to hand draw the tattoo on your body and it looks amazing with just the sharpie. Once the tattoo is finished its better than you envisioned it. KK truly has the artistic ability to turn a simple idea into something more than you can imagine. I highly recommend Paign City Tattoo. Check out his pictures, his work speaks for itself.

Got a tattoo from Ray and was very satisfied! It was everything I wanted and more! Price was fair and environment was great.

I have gotten multiple tattoos at this shop and each time it was a great experience. KK always makes me feel welcome and at home. His shop is very clean. Overall the best tattoo shop in the 217.

I’ve had several pieces done by Paige City Tattoo and they are amazing. The shop has always been very clean, a nice variety of music playing, and the price has always been very affordable. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a tattoo artist.

Patient, creative, dedicated. This is an amazing shop full of great artists who are passionate about their craft. They did an amazing job, maintained excellent communication and certainly went above and beyond to ensure satisfaction. Great people, great work. Thank you so much! I love my new ink!

Awesome clean good environment to visit whether to get a tattoo or (if you’re an artist) to guest spot at. My guy K.K showed mad love. The talent and drive is undeniable. Would and will definitely recommend to anyone I come across in the area. Paign City Tattoo!!!!!!!!

One of a kind!!! So creative that he will never duplicate a tattoo. You can bring him any piece of art & it will always turn out exclusive 💯 Very clean & peaceful environment. After many f#*! ups from other tattoos artist, Kk is the only one Ill let do my tattoos.

Paign City is the place to go for the best tattoos in the 217 area. KK is not only talented, but also very friendly and makes you feel comfortable while getting your artwork done. It’s a very clean environment. I’d recommend KK and Paign City to everyone looking for quality artwork!

Great and friendly service with a very inviting atmosphere. K.k was very patient in understanding the vision i wanted for my tattoo. As well as educating me as to what works best for my skin tone and overall design. Most shops seem to jus slap anything on your body. Whereas, k.k helped understand what works and what doesnt so i can get the best esthetic for my tattoo. It was a small intricate feather and i can literally see every detail down to the last wipsy. I will definitely come back for more work, no doubt. Thanks! 🙏🏾

I HIGHLEY recommend the vibe is amazing they are so friendly and some of the best work I’ve seen in Champaign if your looking for an anime tattoo request Tevin he is the best

Had my third and largest tattoo done by k.k last Thursday. I have been wanting for awhile and finally showed him a pic of the idea and said you do you. I couldnt be happier. We put in 7 hrs and i had hardly any pain i still have another session but am already getting compliments ands its not even finished.

Ray is an awesome dude and a fantastic tattoo artist. He is professional, precise, and very talented. 100% recommend this place. Great work!

Poor, slow, incomplete communication. Strung me along for a week beating around the bush but never actually booked my appointment and stopped replying. Unprofessional.

Kk’s shop is very clean, he has very clean line work and unique lettering styles. He is great with realistic tattoos as well, he has done all the work on my lower arms an I have always left Paign City a happy customer.

Tevin did an amazing job with my piece!!! I highly recommend going with him, he’s super friendly and very profesional.

Even though I was 20mins, he still did my tattoo. He did a wonderful job. I am very pleased. Great people, Great work, Great prices and Great Atmosphere...I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!! 😁THANK YOU-JAY

I went here for my first time tattoo and loved the experience!Hes professional with his craft and has chill vibes to help you relax when youre going for your first time tattoo.

This is a great tattoo shop, the owner K.K. is extremely talented and easy to work with. He offers great prices and provides even better customer service and quality of work. I highly recommend this location!!!

Ray tatted me and my buddy up dam good guy and dam good work was visiting from Minnesota and definitely wont forget how cool he is.

Absolutely awesome guy! He really did a great job and I give him mad props at what he does! Thanks my bro!

Wonderful experience. I have gone to KK 3 times now and been extremely pleased every time. Kk had to do a cover up for me and it looks amazing! He is very talented and very professional! I will continue to come back!

He has done 2 of my tattoos done and they have turned out great...he is a great tattoo artist...he is just a giant goofball so when you get nervous getting a tattoo he is very funny guy...I would definitely recommend him to do a tattoo

Ray was awesome! He took his time making sure he knew exactly what I wanted and where I wanted it. He was time and very thorough. I love my arm piece!

I had a great experience at paign city tattoo, k.k. is very professional and keeps a clean work environment. The quality of work he does for a reasonable price.

Great prices! Artist is professional and sanitary. No complications with the healing phase either. The tattoo process felt more like a massage!

My husband and I came to get our tattoo done together and my husband comes a lot to get his tattoos. KK is an awesome artist and is very professional!

Tattoos are something that you have for life unless you feel like covering them up in this case KK is the man to go to for both proudly getting tatted by him love the artwork and the connection he makes while getting some awesome ink 💯 it’s lit ke a barber to me if it’s crisp and clean than he gone see me every time I want some ink 🅿️

Very clean, friendly, and afforable price. The name is KK, he will take his time and get you right on your tattoo and you will leave the shop satisfied 😊

Very unprofessional, KK took my deposit money and has not replied and has made no effort for a week to get back in contact to figure out what to do with the tattoo, no reschedule, no exchange for a colleague. Nothing. What I get for going to a hole in the wall.

Ray Allen has done several of my tattoos. They are all great quality and his prices are always fair!

Aye these mfs are quick with it, VERY well priced and the line work is pretty dang good! Easy going chill af environment, I’ll be back around for sure.

Easy to make an appointment, and service is great. Low cost for outstanding work. Incredible artwork and very clean work area. Going back for more soon.

KK is talented, friendly, and efficient. Hes done 4 of my tattoos and Ive yet to be dissatisfied.

Super great experience and really well done job ray did a great job making me and my friend feel comfortable and that we got exactly what we wanted fell in love with the job!

Very accessible “free” parking , super flexible schedule, and some of the most reasonable per hour rates in town, overall best experience in a shop I’ve ever had , always considering coming back for more

Great experience and quality work. I would recommend KK to anybody in Champaign. I will continue to come back. I admire your work. Thank you

I appreciate your advice. Especially since I went to go workout right after I got tatted. Your service was great. I recommend your business.

My boy got it!! He official wit whateva u need him to do. He adjust to his customers so that they are happy with his work of art!

The artwork was over what I expected. I would highly recommend anyone to get your tatts done by Paign City Tattoo.
