Ive had several tattoos from this shop, Kristina specifically, I wont go anywhere else. Its always clean and professional, yet you feel like youre hanging with your friends. My daughter and I went together, this was her first and Kristina was so kind and patient with her. Made her feel so comfortable. She made our Dad and Daughter Date even more unforgettable. So grateful.The skill level of the artists at the shop is top tier. The environment of the shop is so chill and welcoming. While i was there, a little girl came in to get her ears pierced. The little girl was noticeably scared. The piercer took the time to comfort her calm her. The little girl even gave the piercer a hug afterwards. Highly recommend this establishment.

I highly recommend Bare Knuckle Tattoo. Kristina and her crew are extremely professional and exceptional artists! They make you feel comfortable and the comradely of her employees and their great sense of humor are a welcome distraction on those occasions when you might need it. I have had several tattoos done there and wouldnt go anywhere else. Top notch!

Worked with Pepper for my largest and most detailed tattoo to date. Not only was it an awesome atmosphere to be in, but it was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. As a plus size woman one of my worries is whether or not tables or chairs will be stable, these were perfect. I felt comfortable and safe to ask questions. We had an amazing conversation and the art she put on my arm gets consistent compliments. I will be returning and referring for all future works!

My experience at Bare Knuckle Tattoo has been nothing but amazing. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. The shop is kept very clean and presentable. I love the work that Kristina has done on my forearm. Both pieces were exactly what I asked for if not, more! Thank you so much Kristina! I’ll be coming back for some more ink!

All around great experience. The shop was clean and Kristina was great. Kristina goes out of her way to make sure you’re getting what you want. I added a few different things last minute and she added them right into the design. Highly recommend

Coming in to my appointment I was very nervous about the piercing I wanted, but the piercer I had was super kind and talked myself and my friend through the process before getting our piercings as well as answering any questions we had. The shop was very clean and I would highly recommend them to anybody in the area!

Marissa was absolutely fantastic! She was very nice, professional, and made sure to explain every step of the process to me. She made me feel very comfortable. The shop was clean and she showed me all of the materials/tools that were going to be used, as well as how they were properly cleaned and packaged. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you, Marissa!

I’ve gotten almost all of my tattoos on my sleeve done here. I even have three by the same artist (Luke). I have an anime piece by Pepper that I get compliments on all the time. Great atmosphere and even better artists. I recommend this shop to everyone!

Kristina the owner is great to work with and in my opinion the best tattoo artist in our area. I genuinely love every tattoo she’s done for me and I will be a lifelong client. Bare knuckle is the only place I’ll get tattooed.

I was very impressed by this shop! Very clean, friendly and talented. I had an appointment with Kristina and she absolutely knocked my tattoo out of the park! I would highly recommend her.

My favorite tattoo and piercing shop I’ve ever been too. I’ve never had a straight piercing until I came here. 10/10 recommend

Review №15

I got 4 peircings there so far, all of them amazing, i have got a nose, septum, tongue, and an eyebrow piercings from here so far and the peircer Marissa goes through every step and every piece of equipment used throughly before the peircing, bare knuckle is very sterile and I’ve never had a bad outcome with them and the prices are honestly low for what you get. Definitely recommend going here, and they have amazing decorations

Review №16

I got a second nostril piercing and gauged up my first one with Marissa and I’m absolutely in love with her work! I had seen what’s she’s done for others on Instagram and knew she was the one to go to but what I didn’t expect was how much less painful it was compared to what I thought it might be!! As someone with a huge fear of needles this was something I put off for a long time and now I can’t wait to go back and get something else done. They’ve both been healing beautifully and look so symmetrical. I stare at them in the mirror every time hahah. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I highly recommend Bare Knuckle Tattoo! Pepper is my artist and has been amazing to work with! I always feel welcome! It is a professional, safe and clean establishment. Each artist has their own unique style and I’ve seen such great work come from this shop! Pepper has provided custom artwork for my sleeve and I’m so happy with it!

My artist is Pepper and she is absolutely phenomenal. Give her ideas and watch her bring them together in the most amazing ways.Overall the people are amazing. Theres always great banter between the artists and the clients. Kristina is hilarious. Pepper is a sweetheart. Sofia comes in with lowkey comments. It just feels fun being in the chair getting worked on by people who enjoy what they do.Hygienically, its such a clean place. I highly recommend!

Review №21

The best piercing experience I have ever had! I went in having a previous industrial done somewhere else that has been giving me issues. Marissa was amazing in explaining why the piercing wasn’t done properly and we decided to take it out to close. I had initially wanted just one piercing, but she was very helpful giving her input on what she thought would look great in each ear. She explained everything she was doing very thoroughly and made me feel calm and relaxed. She was very patient with me in making my decisions and asking all of my questions. Absolutely amazing people here!

By far, this is the best place to get a tattoo or piercing if you want the best results. It is a very clean atmosphere. As far as the artists are concerned, they are very knowledgeable and have a genuine concern for their clients. It is the only place I will go to in the future.

Bare Knuckle has always impressed me with the way Kristina runs her business. During my first visit 7 hrs ago I was so impressed with her and her shop that I have told many people including my family members to only go to Bare Knuckle for their tattoos.Kristina has done over 10 tattoos for myself and my immediate family members so far. All have been great and the pricing is great also.Go to Bare Knuckle for your tattoos you will not be disappointed & ask for Kristina!

I was referred by a friend. Kristine came in on her day off to service me. That alone set great first impression. Upon walking into the shop I noticed how clean it was. A home feeling came to mind. Great atmosphere and great overall vibes. Kristine gave me options and really took the time to explain things to me in details. Only took 10 minutes and Kristine was already prepping her station. Tattoo took about 4-5 hours. Overall result was just AMAZING! So worth driving 5 hours just to see excellent work on my forearm. I will definitely be coming back......#BRAVO

Kristina is the best there is.Each tattoo tells a story, so beautiful and passionate. Its the art that comes to you naturally. My tattoo is beautiful and I get stopped often for people to look at my sleeve and admire it. You took what I gave you and worked your magic on it! Thank you for all you did so far can’t wait for my next session.

Pepper did an amazing job on my tattoo! I had a drawing that my niece had made me done on my side and it looks amazing. She was friendly throughout the whole appointment and took her time to make sure it was perfect. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that is looking at getting a tattoo.

I went to get my septum pierced, I was a bit nervous because I have a deviated septum that’s pretty apparent when looking straight on. The piercer, Kristina I believe, was friendly and knowledgeable. They did a very good job making sure the placement was correct and eased my fears. They also follow APP guidelines for placement and healing which is awesome! My septum came out beautiful and I love my nose for the first time in my life! Thank you!!

Pepper designed and tattooed an original D&D themed memorial piece for me. It was designed with care and expertise. She involved me in the process, and took my crazy thoughts and organized them into a beautiful piece. This was my 4th tattoo, and Pepper had a very gentle hand while tattooing. Her professionalism showed throughout the whole process. Her artistic talent is astounding, and her tattooing, is flawless. I am extremely happy with my piece and look forward to getting more work done by her.

Review №43

Of all the tattoo shops and piercing parlors in the Watertown, NY area, this is the one to go to. It is not a typical smaller area shop! This place not only is the most well kept shop I’ve been to here, it is one of the most professional establishments I have ever been too. They have a very business oriented outlook, and do they’re absolute best to give you the best tattoo they can. The artists here have a very no nonsense attitude so if you are looking to make small talk and beat around the bush, you might have better luck elsewhere. But if you are looking for a high quality tattoo at a well run, clean, client oriented place, this is it!I only got the outline of my tattoo done but I cannot wait to get it finished and I could not have asked for a better artist or shop to get this massive price done in!

I had an amazing experience getting tattooed at Bareknuckle. I sat for a 6 hr session, and it was incredibly refreshing experience. Kristina was so knowledgable, friendly and charismatic and her apprentice was also extremely kind, and I felt so trusting having two sets of eyes on the piece at all times. Kristina is extremely observant, and her attention-to-detail was admiring and very appreciated. I would recommend Bareknuckle Tattoo to anyone, and I can’t wait to visit them again!

Bare knuckle is hands down the only place I would go for any tattoo and piercing. Their staff is made up of capable, knowledgeable worthy artists who all Excell in their craft.

Out of all of the shops Ive been to bare knuckle has to be the best. The service is great, the prices are fair for the work they do, and they maintain a clean and comfortable environment. In the last year or so Ive gone in for 3 smaller pieces and was never disappointed. Ive seen a few of their artist working on larger pieces and they looked phenomenal. Would definitely recommend paying them a visit next time youre looking for some work.

Review №62

Absolutely love this place!!!! Walked in for piercings and they got us in immediately, I also couldn’t get over how clean it was!!! Not only did the piercer know what she was doing but she could spot my scar from previous piercings and avoided piercing the same place! You can tell she knows what she’s doing! Will definitely be sharing with more friends

Kristina is by far the best tattoo artist in the north country, and an awesome person all around. Very reasonably priced, and she never disappoints. You can walk in there with just a general idea of what you want, and shell turn it into a masterpiece. Ive sent many of my friends in her direction, and theyll no longer go to anyone else. I recommend Kristina 110%!

My husband and I both had made appointments months ago with Kristina, when it came time to attend my appointment we had an emergency and had to cancel the day prior, and yes it was 24 hours prior. Now today Oct 23rd my husband’s appointment came around and he showed up on time ready to go but as soon as Kristina got there she said she had cancelled all his appointments that were upcoming because “she wasn’t sure if he’d show up” that is one of the most unprofessional things an artist can do, when we had cancelled my appointment we clearly stated to cancel JUST MINE, NOT HIS. Never scheduling appointments with her again.

Review №66

I am been getting work done by Kristina since before Bare Knuckle Tattoo opened. Didnt have to debate to follow her when she ventured out and started her own shop. She is a real artist and did a huge cover up on me, touched most of the work I had in the past as well as did portrait work. Kristina and Kandy (both are well rounded artists) have done work on me, my daughter, my mother and numerous people I work with and ppl commented on my work and got their own body art done. This is definitely the best tattoo shop I have been to in my 23 years of getting tattoos and anyone who works with her has lived up to her level. This is worth the wait for any tattoo that you can look at for the rest of your life and not regret who did it.

They did nipple piercings on me and the right one was pierced right through on the nipple and other side went through my aerola and the left one was pierced perfectly. I went back to ask the piercer if it was normal she said, “yeah, use more saline and I’ll give you longer bar. I can’t pierce it again because your nipple is too flat”. Like lady, just say you don’t know what you’re doing. I’m glad I didn’t have to pay for anything the service wasn’t great at all. She didn’t even hear my needs when I back again because it got red. I’ll never give them no more business again. I had to end up taking it out!

Review №88

The owner is great while at the shop but outside of the shop she is absolutely awful and rude to her customers. Goes out to bars and gets drunk and insults her customers (one being a good friend of mine). It’s unprofessional if you aren’t professional outside of the workplace as well. I’m sick of the way she treats people outside of the shop. It just isn’t right. I’ve had sent a lot of people to her shop but due to her disrespect and belligerent usage of words with my friend, I’ll no longer be recommending them to that shop.

Best tattoo shop Ive ever been too, Alfred has done both my tattoos and did an absolutely amazing job.
