Dark Arts Tattoo Studio

Amazing shop with phenomenal artists! Everyone was so friendly and the shop was very clean. Smooth process for scheduling and Amanda was very communicative though the whole design process. I’m extremely happy with my tattoo and she made my vision more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Truly the best shop around. I could not be happier with how it looks. Will definitely be back.

I have now gotten 7 tattoos done at Dark Arts and I plan to get MANY many more. This shop is not only super clean, but it’s fun and fresh. From the amazing decor (unique to each artists personal style), to the general positive atmosphere, this place is more than just a tattoo shop. Every time I go, MicMacTats and the other amazing artists make me feel at home and comfortable, which is important since I’m usually there for multiple hours at a time. I enjoy myself there and on top of that, I get stunning tattoos! I would highly recommend this shop to anyone looking to get a tattoo! The team is respectful and considerate and each of them are true artists!! I can’t wait to go back and get another one!! 🥰

I’ll start this by saying I’ve only been to 2 other shops before Dark Arts, but after my first visit here I decided they would be the only shop I would visit in the future. Everyone here that I’ve talked to has always been kind and helpful. Whenever I’m in for a tattoo the atmosphere is always so welcoming. I’ve had work done by multiple artists and have never once had an issue with anyone. They always make sure to take care of you and make sure you’re comfortable with everything! I’ve probably had around 30 (if not more) visits here in the last 2-3 years and I have no intentions on going anywhere else! 11/10 would recommend.

I started getting my tattoos a little over a year ago and am so happy I found this spot. The atmosphere and the artists are amazing; such friendly people with insane talent. They always make me feel like I’m just visiting the homies during every session. I was originally drawn to the shop by Meg’s (@eightleggedmeg) super unique style, conjuring perfectly eerie creations straight from the uncanny valley. Within her style, Meg’s versatility offers a range of options from familiar favorite characters and delightfully bizarre nostalgic pieces to her one-of-a-kind custom creations, twisting ordinary and recognizable concepts to her whim. Meg is a mad scientist experimenting with the creepy, haunting, and enigmatic, and she’d be the paragon of her style if anyone else was doing what she’s doing. While I haven’t had the chance to work with many of the other artists at the studio yet, I’m excited to get started with them in the near future. I live in the middle of Baltimore City surrounded by countless studios but the people, talent, and general vibe of Dark Arts will have me taking the hour trip every time.

I've been coming to DA for a little while now. I've been tattooed by Paige and Brittany. Every time I've gone has been a great experience! Brittany did a scarecrow on my calf and she was amazing, professional and super laid back. I usually see Paige when I go. She does amazing work and is super cool and funny. The vibes are amazing in the entire shop, but as someone who has social anxiety especially in tattoo shops Paige makes it really chill and comfortable. Every time I come she is set up and ready to go which I super appreciate. 10/10 recommend! you should def check her out!

i love this tattoo shop! i’ve been tattooed by michaela, paige, and brit and they’re each so sweet and talented! i highly recommend them, although i’m sure all the artists are the same. michaela even bought me CFA during our session and i’ll never forget my tattoo experience with her! :) brit did my thigh piece, paige did my butterfly and shrek tattoo and michaela did my calf tattoo!

My tattoo is awesome. The pricing is insane though, my tattoo was 3.5 hours and was almost $1,000. The shop was cool. My tattoo was a Harry Potter collage and the shop is Harry Potter themed so that was comforting. My biggest issue is they don’t seem to care about their customers after you’re gone based on my experience and others that have left reviews. I’ve never had a big tattoo, and was very unsure about the wrap they give you. My artist said to reach out with any questions… I did and never heard back. Tattoos are life changers literally, I think they need to do way better at responding to EVERYONE in a business that gives you a product that is so important to people and something you do NOT want to mess up. Idc if they’re busy. All companies get busy. You still respect your customers!
