Ria did a great job! Didn’t take long and had some friendly conversations. Second tattoo done here and mostly likely not that last. I would refer anyone who likes a clean and great environment to get a tattoo. Nice couches and some Tv while you wait. Highly recommended!

I found Unicorn Ink by doing a Google search. My first appointment was right after they moved into their new shop. I had my second appointment and WOW was I even more impressed with the shop. The atmosphere, artists, and overall vibe is so fun and inviting! I worked with Greg and he is amazing. Super sharp lines, bright colors, fun to talk to, and he is not heavy handed at all (if you have been tattooed by a heavy handed artist you will appreciate that a lot)As I said the shop is so fun! Did that other shop you went to have a sparkly floor? I bet it didnt... But theirs does! The wall is also fun and stands out. Anyone that was young in the 90s remembers the show GUTS well the walk reminds me of the aggro crag from that show. The shop is HUGE and has a nice big waiting area and many artists to be able to accommodate whatever style tattoo you are looking for. All of the artists have their own room with their name above the door. They all have their own space and a comfortable make you feel at home atmosphere. I also must say the room I was tattooed in was bigger than a shop Ive been in that had 4 people tattooing in itSo between the quality of the work, the look of the shop, the overall atmosphere, and the friendly artists... You ABSOLUTELY need to check them out for your next tattoo.Been there, been tattooed, even got the T-shirt! Im proud to be welcomed into the Unicorn Ink family and look forward to continuing my sleeve with Greg.

I highly recommend Ria for all your tattoo needs. She has been my go to artist for years and I’ve had the pleasure of watching her talents evolve from fantastic to exceptional. She’s always polite, professional and answers any questions promptly. She’s a 10 out of 10 and I recommend her to anyone looking to get a tattoo.

I just got my first piercing done this week and it was such an easy experience! I felt at ease despite being nervous not only about the impending piercing, but i also am always on alert when entering a new space like this as a trans person. The shop is clean, quiet, and absolutely comfortable. The intake form asked preferred name and pronouns and the staff was as perfectly welcoming as you could want.Mikey gave me choices even with a simple piercing, didn’t rush me on decisions, and gave me very detailed after care instructions.I absolutely plan to go back, I’ve been very much wanting a new tattoo but didn’t know where to go that I felt safe. This is it.

I want to give this place a good review but after my last visit I just cant. Wont name any names but when your tattoo artist is saying they havent eaten all day and they are worried about keeping a steady hand, and you later discover mistakes on the line work when your tattoo heals, its not the greatest experience. And when the artist touches up one of their previous tattoos and somehow manages to make the tattoo worse during the touch up, thats the last straw. Fair prices but dont forget, you get what you pay for. Not to mention I had to send about 4 emails to get a response. Maybe the other artists at the shop are worth it, but not the artist I went to.

I have gotten easily more than half my tattoos from Nick, fantastic artist and everyone working the desk is super nice and wonderfully inviting. I also got my ears pierced with Mikey and he was great! Everyone should go here it’s the coolest shop on RI!!!

This location is very clean. Greg was awesome. He did an awesome job! very professional. He asked if I wanted the tv on for distraction, asked throughout the session if I was doing well and laid out what I should expect during healing. This wasnt my first tattoo and I wish I would have found Greg before I got my other tattoos. I gave Greg an idea for my tattoo and he made it work in the location I wanted. I recommend Unicorn inc 100%. my tattoo is awesome.

A few months ago my sister and I went to get tattooed by Liz and she was super friendly and made me feel relaxed. Yesterday we went back to get our tattoos touched up and Liz was friendly as ever! I also scheduled an appointment for September Itll be nice to establish a relationshp with her :-) A very nice man with blue glasses (Greg I think) gave my sister and I a free necklace as a little gift! The new building is so big and very beautiful! Very fun, very professional 5 stars

Review №17

My husband and I were referred to Unicorn Ink by a few friends and were so happy we chose them for our first tattoos. We reviewed all of the artists and saw that Gregs style matched what we were going for so we reached out to book an appointment via email. He got back to us quickly and though there was a bit of a wait until he could fit us in, it was totally worth it. When we arrived for our appointment Greg took us right back after we checked in and was patient as we decided on our exact placement and scale. He could tell I was nervous and that it was my first tattoo so he took the time to not only tell me what he was doing at each step but also what to pay attention to when getting a tattoo in general to be able to tell if the shop is following health and safety best practices. We loved how the tattoos turned out. Cant recommend Unicorn Ink and Greg enough!

This place is SO COOL. everyone is super nice, and the interior design is wicked fun too - rainbow floor, cool lighting, as well as a switch in a lounge area for while you wait. i got a tattoo from ria, extremely talented and did a really good job! this is my third tattoo from her and every time shes very friendly and works with you on what you want. cant wait to go back and get more. my friend also got his ears pierced for the first time by mikey, he was very knowledgable and helpful as my friend hadnt been pierced before. love the vibe and everyone in unicorn ink! i wish i could hang there all day! :)

Review №19

Went here to get matching tattoos with my sister in memory of our mom and am so glad we chose this shop! Sofia was great about making sure to offer design options and then when there helped talk through the best placement of the tattoo. The end result is absolutely gorgeous. Then after we were done getting our tattoos, we realized that my sisters cars battery died. AAA wouldnt help since the cardholder wasnt there but the shop owner came to the rescue and was so nice about it. Would recommend this place for great customer service and great tattoos :)

Everything I saw on there website looked amazing. Ive never been there but trust and believe I will be planning a trip there as soon as I can. My husband is wanting a tattoo done there, and hes wanting Greg the owner to do it for him. And we live in North Carolina I follow Greg and Mikey on Facebook there business Unicorn Pearls. And I have bought a few times from them and they have awesome games and prizes they are 1# in my book. Greg and Mikey are so awesome that I am going to drive all the way there for tattoos and to finally meet them in person. Yeah!!!😍🦄

Review №25

I have sent multiple emails, and made multiple calls in order to get a tattoo. while i can understand that tattoos need to be scheduled a few months out, what i cant understand is the disorganized way in which these tattoos are scheduled. The artists i reach out to either completely ignore me, or will disregard everything i say. I requested certain days at certain times, only to have the artist respond to me with a completely incompatible date and time. It is extremely frustrating. Im sure they do good work, but will be looking elsewhere for a company that will at least give me the time of day.

Greg did two of my tattoos and touched up/fixed a third (not originally his work) and I am so happy with the outcome of all three. Will definitely be back and highly recommend.

My 13 year old wanted her helix pierced for her birthday. Mike took the time to show her everything, explain everything, answer any and all questions & waited for her wave of anxiety to pass before proceeding. He was patient, professional, super clean & so down to earth. His business card is still in her phone case (because it’s the coolest card ever) and just in case she has any questions or concerns. He promised to respond to emails no matter how silly her concern may be! We got her a gift card for Christmas because he (we?) created an addict!! See you soon, thanks for everything!!!

I always go to Unicorn Ink for my piercing needs! The piercer is super professional, clean, welcoming and makes you feel super comfortable when nervous about a piercing. I also went there once before for a cover up and it came out amazing! Everyone there are all so welcoming & the atmosphere is super chill and fun. I highly recommend going there for your piercing & tattoo needs!

I’ve had a few small tattoos done here, got my nose pierced and then most recently got my shoulder done by Angelo! Every experience I’ve had has been exceptional and I can’t wait to get back there in February to finish up my half sleeve with Angelo. Everyone in the shop is super nice and extremely talented. Wouldn’t go anywhere else for a tattoo!

My experience at unicorn ink was awesome! I got my conch pierced there yesterday and it was my first cartilage piercing, so I was pretty nervous. Mikey was very professional and made me feel as comfortable as possible before, during and after the piercing. Everything was sterile and cleaned beforehand and the piercing was quick. Overall 10/10 am definitely going back for my next one. :)

I found Unicorn Ink on Google after a bad experience. I was going to say forget it, but gave them a try and now I’m booked for an appointment and can’t wait!! They answered all my questions and didn’t make me feel like burden or like it was just about the money. They listened to my ideas and matched me with one of their many dope artist who was chill, flexible, and didn’t come off like a used car sales man trying to pressure you .... On the contrary she made me feel like I was at a luxury dealership and it was about me and what I wanted!

I had my tattoo done here several years ago but just remembered I never wrote Greg and his team a review.This group of awesome individuals were absolutely fantastic. I did a lot of looking around specifically to get my first tattoo done. I wanted an artist who was expressive, creative and most of all friendly. When I went on for my tattoo I got everything I was looking for.Greg gave my idea a lot of time, and really brought it to life. When the needles started going in, he was very friendly and accommodating.I have recommended Unicorn Ink to whomever would listen, and will continue to do so!

Unicorn Ink is fantastic. I got my lip pierced with Mike Demelo there. I was really nervous at first but he was really professional and kind. I didnt feel a thing and he kept me calm. He is really knowledgeable about what hes doing. The receptionist was really nice. It was a great experience. When I go for my first tattoo and future piercings, I will definitely be going here. It was also wonderfully decorated for Halloween. I definitely recommend Unicorn Ink if youre looking for new ink or a piercing.

Choosing a place to get your tattoo done can be really difficult. Its on you forever so its high stakes. You really cant go wrong with Unicorn Ink. Their shop has the coolest and most fun vibe of any shop Ive been too. They are all super nice and fun people. I worked with Greg. His portfolio speaks for itself. He did such an amazing job, was super chill, nice, understanding, and patient. The prices are very reasonable too. Greg is really great if youre looking for vibrant colors, watercolor, etc. Definitely a great shop Id recommend to anyone!

Clean, cool environment with a very festively decorated waiting room in honor of Halloween. The staff was super kind, patient, and helpful. I went in to take advantage of their Halloween piercing special with Mikey and he was an absolute angel who did an incredible job calming my nerves. He talked me through the whole process and gave me time between each piercing to calm down. His space was also decorated enough to distract me from the fact that I was about to be stabbed in the nose and chest 3 times.10/10, would pay them to impale me again.

Today I just got my first tattoo and honestly it was a really great experience. The people at unicorn ink were very welcoming and kind. Everyone there were quite reassuring and made me feel okay and comfortable with getting a tattoo. Obviously I was quite concerned about the pain aspect of it but Courtney reassured me and she was very sweet and funny. The entire time she was tattooing me she just kept reminding me about quirky things or making jokes with me. It made me feel really great. Its a great establishment and I already booked my next tattoo appointment. Thank you guys so much!
