Love Ink & Dagger! I've gotten my last 3 tattoos here. Mel Perlman's creativity, artistry, & talent is unparalleled! And the staff is always super nice and professional

Really cool shop with a laid back vibe, everyone I’ve spoken with is always nice and helpful. I’ve been tattooed twice now by Mel because i dig her style and she’s a lovely person. I love tattoos but hate getting tattooed (lol) so she’s always patient when i ask for breaks. I definitely plan to keep coming back!

Ericka at the front desk was very rude and smart with me.Izzy did an awesome job making my tattoo flow together. Definitely found a great tattoo artist. Just have to get past the front desk.

Got a tattoo from Mel Perlman and I'm in love! It's absolutely my favorite tattoo I have! She worked with me to make sure I loved each and every little detail, and the color scheme. And she does free touch-ups!!! Totally worth the 2 hour drive and price.

I got my very first tattoo here with Mel and it was an amazing experience! I saw this design on the flash sheet and sent an inquiry to the studio. They responded within 24 hours, got my appointment set up for me, and emailed me necessary paperwork to complete prior to the appointment. I appreciated the shop’s transparency in pricing and policies and the ease of setting up an appointment. On the day of the appointment, Mel took great care to ensure I was comfortable throughout the appointment and accommodated to my needed breaks since it was my first tattoo and it was fairly large. I absolutely love Mel’s artwork; she’s truly an artist whom I connected with her art the moment I saw it. Her entire portfolio is amazing and her tattoo work exhibits great line work, fantastic shading/color work, and an unmatched attention to detail. She answered all of my questions, checked in with me on pain throughout the appointment, and her work reflected the exact design I selected from the online flash sheet. The overall vibe of the shop and everyone working there was very welcoming and I would definitely return for future tattoos. I also loved how they provide a care sheet with information and stickers at the end of the appointment. My first tattoo experience was truly amazing and all credit goes to Mel - the friendly, talented, and professional tattoo artist and Ink & Dagger Studio.

Ink and Dagger exceeded my expectations, which were high to begin with, in every possible way! This is an extremely professional studio with equally talented artists; I had fantastic experiences with Amber Grey and Mark Kalinskiy specifically, and will be returning.

Mark is a pleasure to get to know and a wonderfully thoughtful, detail-oriented and creative artist. Can't recommend him enough.

Hands down one of the best experiences in getting a tattoo. I got a full sleeve by Robert and words cannot even describe how happy I am with it. If you are wanting black and white realism Robert is your guy. From start to finish the experience was nothing but exceptional. Would highly recommend this shop to anyone.

Mark is awesome! He’s done a few of my fine line tattoos and they’ve all turned out perfect. His attention to detail is amazing and he’s super nice, which makes the whole experience really comfortable. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for clean, beautiful fine line work!
