We took our 4 year old daughter here to get her ears pierced. What an excellent experience! We are so delighted. They were very professional and patient with her. They talked to her about the process and made her feel very comfortable an at ease. She is a determined girl and she decided it was time and she decided she was going to be brave. They were very clear with me that they will not force her. They didn’t have to. We are so glad on how well they did. They measured her several times to make sure everything was even. We are very happy. Great work!

Great communication, easy going, but they do focus on getting the tattoo done the way you want it done.Reasonable pricing

All the guys at the shop are great. Even though Craig is the only one that I have personally be tattooed by he is fantastic and his work speaks for itself. If you are looking for a great shop look no further!

Let us make a last minute appointment. Suoer nice and sweet - did a great job with my daughter. Results looked great!

I got a feather with birds tattoo...Tristan did mine...they have an awesome and friendly staff...I already have other tattoos picked out for him to do! Cant wait!

The piercer was great with my friend and i! Definitely recommend 100%

Tristan was absolutely amazing and i will refer him to anyone getting a piercing. Both me and my mom had him and we both loved him. he was very sweet, i felt comfortable getting pierced with him, and he did a great job!

Craig has done two of my tattoos so far. He’s very professional and makes the environment comfortable! Thought I’d give the shop a review.

I walked in to get a daith piercing without an appointment and they took me right in. The guy was super nice. He talked me through everything he was doing and it went great! It barely hurt and I already love it!

I was a walk-in to get my lip pierced. Did not have to wait long at all. The facility was clean and the artist were all very professional. They were quick and thorough. Went over aftercare with me and I am very satisfied with the results. I was nervous at first but Tristen calmed me down. Definitely referring everyone I know to them!

Great job, good guys, amazing work. Highly recommended for serious pieces -- just be sure to call/book ahead.

Went there hoping and thinking I would get a great tattoo because of it being in a tattoo shop, but the guy who tattood me did a very bab job.. sloppy line work, Blowout and poor shading. I personally wouldnt recommend this shop & after showing artist the mistake he make no effort to fix it.

Tristan did an amazing job doing our piercings. I highly recommend him. And he is easy on the eyes.

Incredibly talented and professional artists, great rates, and amazing atmosphere. I highly recommend this shop. They did amazing work on me, and watched as they did amazing work on another customer. I will definitely be a returning customer.(the pictures I posted are the best i could take myself with shaky hands and crappy phone, work looks 100X better than my photos can show)- Domino, Smiley, Sinner, That Mossberg Guy.

Best tattoo and piercing experience I could ask for!

I have 17 tattoos, but for whatever reason I’ve always been too scared to get my nose pierced. Tristan did a septum piercing yesterday and had to deal with me being a bit of a baby about it, but he was so kind and friendly! I’m so happy he was patient with me and didn’t give me a hard time. I’ve had some bad experiences at other local shops before. Definitely recommending this place to friends looking for friendly service and a clean establishment!

Very patient and nice people working here. Loved my piercing. Will return for future work!

The vibe there is dope and the guys were all chill. Will be going back

Took me as a walk in and staff was nice and friendly. Will see them again.

Blacktide tattoo co. Has done most of my body art to date. Im thrilled with everything Ive had done. Every time I would go in with a vague vision of what I wanted, and leave with a beautiful work of art better than I could imagine. My sunflowers and luna moth tattoo was an incorporation piece of an old tattoo. And the boa constrictor is an amazing cover up. I recommend blacktide to everyone.

Customer service is trash online it says the business closes at 8:00PM but in reality they close when they fill like it! Trash will never support this establishment again.

Got my daith pierced here before, guy was nice and professional. Whoever handles customer service is indifferent and rude.

This is a great shop! Got my full sleeve done here and Erik was professional and knew his trade. I gave him some ideas and he brought them to life in an amazing way. The price was really fair and the quality of tattoo was top notch. Ill be going to this shop from now on and cant wait to get started on my next sleeve. Thanks Black Tide Tattoo!

Loved the shop. They arent awesome for a first time tattoo!!

My friend and I went into Blacktide as walk-ins recently. Luckily for us, it was a game day, so Craig was able to get to us in immediately. We both just wanted a simple, script tattoo. And he helped us to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. His work was beautiful! He was very quick and efficient. I would definitely go back for future ink.

Went in to get my lobes pierced, Tristan was very professional and did a great job! It didn’t hurt very much and he gave me plenty of instructions on how to care for the piercing. Would highly recommend!

Best place for tattoos

Love my tattoo by Jesse Burress. I will be back for more!! They also offer eyebrow tattooing and eyeliner!

My 1st encounter was frustrating! We called in advance, arrived and no one was at the shop. On my next visit I was pleasantly surprised! The Gentleman I spoke with was informative and kind!

Craig did an awesome job, a great atmosphere and very clean shop. Would definitely recommend

Got my septum pierced here, the piercing artist was very friendly and put me at ease. The atmosphere was positive and fun, everything was very clean and neat. The piercing process was simple and effective, I got the impression he really knew what he was doing and I had no doubts about the quality of his work. Very happy with how it turned out!

Got my first tattoo with tristan & he made sure i was comfortable, went the extra mile to make it perfect :^)

Since we are from out of state we searched hard for a new tattoo place to use. Craig took my husband and I as walk ins. He did a great job! The shop has a cool vibe and everyone was really chill and welcoming. Will definitely be back for more work! Thanks guys

Very professional and clean environment. Always a pleasure to work with everyone there. I have four tattoos and a couple piercings from them and its always been a great experience. Top notch artists and atmosphere. The only place I’ll go now. Would highly recommend Black Tide to anyone!

I saw Erik for my first tattoo, and it was the best experience I could have imagined. Hes incredibly thoughtful and detailed, and he really made me feel comfortable. I was super picky and nervous about everything, but he communicated everything well and was really kind through the whole process. Id recommend him to all of my friends!

I came in to get my 2nd nose and ear pierced, my 11 year old daughter got both her 2nd ear piercing, my sister and mother in law all got two more piercings and it went great! Tristan was chill, professional, sanitary and made everyone feel at ease. The location has a great feel to it and the staff is always friendly. Highly recommend and will come back for more.

Theyre pretty good one of the best in Huntsville

It was absolutely one of the best experiences of my life. Erik Javor was professional and informative and unbelievablely talented. I wont ever go any other place for my tats.

My daughter came here today to get a septum piercing . Judging by their reviews she thought this would be the perfect place to go but boy was she wrong. Tristen almost destroyed her nose! He was careless and hurt her really bad. She’s bleeding and in terrible pain. I hope she doesn’t get an infection. I guess they provide good service to some and horrible service to others. I just wish I could have been with her because I would have known right away Black Tide was not the place for her.

My wife and I decided to get tattoos before we moved abroad and scheduled with Jessie at Blacktide a few months in advance while we would be in town. He did a great job at interpreting our feeble attempts to explain what we each wanted, and was able to produce some awesome tattoos for both of us. Visiting Jessie at Blacktide is well worth your time and you will love the results!

Absolutely awesome! Erik is a great guy and incredible artist!

Very clean, professional, and nice. I love my tattoo!

I am very happy with my nipples pierced. He was the best! I definitely recommend him!!!

I really cant rate at this time as they do not take walk ins.

Best shop Ive ever been to. The staff is talented, easy to work with, and the facility is clean. They can be booked out for a while, but thats a trade off for artistry. I wont go anywhere else.

I called and was taken in within hours! It was quick, near painless, and affordable! I’m very happy.

Friendly. Came in with no appointment and they happily took care of me right then and there. They were thorough and made sure that I knew what they were doing at every step. I have a lot of piercings and tattoos and they could see that, it didnt change the level of professionalism and attention to details. Having a vertical labret you have to make sure its centered and in the places you want on your lip. They worked to make sure that it was even and accommodated my preference for setting. Would recommend for future work. Got to see some of the drawings they were working on at their work table and it looks like they do some amazing and detailed tattoo work if the sketches are any indication.

Shop is awesome. Eric did my tattoo and looks amazing! Never going anywhere else. Every quiet and friendly environment. Best shop in town.

Me and my wife have been here twice now for piercings and have had an amazing expierance. Tristan is very good with customers and the wait is never terrible. Will go here for as long as they are open and he works there for piercings.

Two years ago I said I would come back, and I finally made it. Im so glad I did! I love this shop. I cant wait to get my tattoo finished. Everyone is complimenting it already. Erik is awesome! I will definitely be going back.

First off, Eric is awesome. Always nice every time. My GF loved this tattoo shop, and it was the one she always recommended to her friends and family. However on her last visit, Craig was extremely rude to her sister and her to the point where she just left the shop. She no longer goes here anymore because she felt like they dont care about the customers anymore.

This is such an awesome place!! Everybody in there was friendly. All staff members were super nice. Tristan did my tattoo for me and he did such a great job. I love it very much!!

Just got my nose pierced there and everyone was really nice! Love it!

I’ve had 95% of my tattoos done here with everyone in the shop doing some part of them. Can’t say enough about how great these artists are. Clean and comfortable areas, great attitudes, and a relaxing experience.

Best shop ever!!! Very clean and Top notch work!

They make you feel comfortable and the establishment is so clean. If I wanted more piercings I would come here no questions asked.

Stopped in Saturday morning & spoke with Craig Smith, told him what I wanted. He drew up a picture that was just what I had in mind, & then some. The finished art was fantastic! Extremely pleased with his work. Shop was clean & lots of designs on display. Didn’t take all day & reasonable prices. Absolutely recommend Blacktide & especially Craig.

Jesse is amazing! Love this place. If youre needing ink definitely check Black Tide Out!

Extremely professional and respectful every time Ive came in. Ive had many pieces done by Craig and am beyond happy with the detail and care that is put into each one. Black Tide is the only place I ever recommend people to go and the only place I will ever go around here.

These guys rock! Jesse, Craig, and Erik are some highly skilled artists ! I’ve got a whole sleeve done by Jesse, multiple buddies of mine and even my own clients have gotten work done from Craig and Erik. Light handed and patient. Always a top notch experience with these guys. I won’t get any work done from anyone else. Customer for life ! P.s. they love Taco Bell and chick-fil-a! Always hook up my boys whenever I get work done. ;) 5 stars is truly NOT enough for the standard they set. Thanks guys !!!

Eric was awesome!!!! It was my first time there. My daughter and her husband have been using Eric for awhile now and she took me there to get our family motto inked on my arm. I was immediately impressed with him and the shop, and it was the first time Ive been tattooed without hearing any foul language. Will def be going back there!

My partner and i just got some ink by Craig, and mom got 5 (yes 5🤘🏻) piercings by Tristan. Great work...super nice guys....and very clean shop. We highly recommend and we will certainly be back!

Thank you so much for the fabulous tattoo!!! Was very happy with the image I ended up with after getting help from all the folks there. When they couldnt get to us that day because of previous appointments, another artist was contacted in another city & he came right away, even though he had to drive over 60 miles. Each way!!

Great customer service, awesome experience

I got with Erik for a highly personalized piece and he created the perfect tattoo, Ive received several compliments on it.I have since moved to Birmingham, but I will make the drive to Huntsville for all my future tattoo needs.Also a great spot for piercings... got my industrial redone quickly and painlessly. Black Tide is the perfect one stop shop.

Got my belly button pierced here, I was nervous but the guys were super nice. And Tristan did an awesome job. Totally professional, and really nice people.Thanks Blacktide. 😁👌👍

This is an amazing shop. Eric, Jesse, Craig, and Tristan are amazing artists. They are very professional, super friendly, and personable. The shop is incredibly clean and sanitary, just watch out for the samari sword.

Jesse did a great job. It was fast and accurate and his interpretation of my piece is spot on! I highly recommend Black Tide and Jesse!

I just got my first tattoo! Jesse was great and professional. He made it a comfortable experience for me and I love the tattoo.

Very homey atmosphere and the guys up there are great. You feel like youre sitting around with your friends getting tattoos. Eric and Jesse are phenomenal tattoo artists and recommend them highly. Very professional and they take cards!

These guys are great. Craig did an amazing job. He is a great artist. He is very personable and I will definitely recommend him. Thanks guys!

If you want a great tattoo or in need of permanent make up or lash extensions this is the place! Everyone there is so nice and willing to please! Ask for Samantha for your permanent make up! She is awesome!

Awesome work Jesse! Great detail! Fun shop, good people, highly recommend! Will be back soon!!

The tattoo artist said he “ doesn’t do color on colored skin”. That’s crazy any other professional tattoo artist do and I’m not even dark !

When I first walked in I felt so welcome they were nice and the person piercing me helped me pick out the jewelry that best fit me. The place looked nice and really clean. I will continue to go to them for any of my future piercings!

Awesome job by Tristan performing the Septum piercing.

Tristen was extremely prompt with his service, very easy going and made my experience great.

A+++, Love Samantha (perminant make-up artist), she did my eyeliner and I couldnt be happier. Shes very compassionate, professional and on point .

I got an ear piercing for help with my severe migraines. Erik was very professional and kind. He put me at ease and talked to me as he did each step. I highly recommend Erik and Blacktide Tattoo!! Just a note...I have been migraine free for a week! I usually get one at least every 3 day.

Excellent work!! Very pricey!! But you get what you pay for i suppose and they are worth every dollar.

Great studio, super friendly staff. If you want some high quality work done, this is a great place.

LOVE LOVE Black tide tattoo company! Erik Javor and Jesse Burress are THEE guys to see. Hands down best work Ive ever had put on my body. These guys love what they do and do a phenomenal job, every time. Piercings and tattoos. Id definitely recommend. And call for an appointment.

Tristan did a great job

Some of the best artists around. Well worth the wait and money.

I have had a few piercings done here and 3 tattoos now very professional and clean, and amazing art and fun

Loved my experience here!! The guys were so nice and made you feel so comfortable!

Went in for pricing consult. Absolutely rude and blew me off. Like me business was not important

The artists here are amazing and they are now offering micro-blade services for eyebrow and eyelash care.

Your work looks great, I plan to come and check you out soon. The shop is awesome as well.

Erik is te best. He saved my 2face tattoo and I love it!!

Great artists. Great atmosphere

Great people, great tattoo, couldnt ask for anything better.

Good artists, fair price. Creative tattoo designs.

Eric did great work for my husband and I in a quick time frame.

Great artists and all around awesome people
