The perfect spooky atmosphere paired with the loveliest staff! Salem the piercer was a delight to work with. She easily troubleshooted old piercings I had gotten from other shops that never quite healed right and figured out how to make everything old and new look and feel great on my ears particular shape. This will be my go-to tattoo shop from here on out!
Unprofessional and uncourteous establishment. I made an appointment for a phone consult for October 11 in April. The time for that consult came and went so I called the shop. I was told that Mitch was out of the country and unable to do my consult that date, they would let him know I called when he was back. I called a week later and was told that they were busy and backed up, but they would let me know when my consult could be rescheduled. I called again today and was told again they were extremely busy. Its frustrating to be excited about a tattoo and an artist when an appointment is made in April for October and then not have my time or value as a customer be considered. There are plenty of other shops in Richmond that are just as good that treat clients as valued people to go to instead. I would not recommend this shop or Mitch.
SinnerG is one of a kind! From Edens incredible customer service while booking to the magic tattoo work by Terry, I could not be more pleased with my experience at SinnerG. The vibe of the shop is SO COOL. Already can’t wait to go back for a piercing by Salem, who pierced my friend, and was the nicest person ever.
I got 2 conch piercings with Salem and the experience was amazing! She was super nice from the time I walked in and helped me decide on cute cohesive jewelry that I’m IN LOVE with. She also helped me with a healing piercing I was having issues with and everything seems great so far. The shop was clean, the staff was friendly and the jewelry options were incredible, 10/10 stars!
Checkout Terry downs at SinnerG tattoo. Her work is amazing we can’t say enough on how happy we are with what she has created for my wife an I. The attention to detail with her art/tattoo is by far the best around. If your looking for a new tattoo checkout Terry Downs you will be extremely happy you did. I am looking forward to having my next tattoo done by her soon.
I worked with Terry at SinnerG for my first tattoo. Everyone was so friendly. Super clean atmosphere. They were quick to respond to my initial inquiry and all follow up emails. Terry was able to make the perfect magnolia design from the example pictures I sent her. Definitely recommend Terry ❤️
I’ve had work done by Jorge, Sabrina, and Salem. Everything I have gotten has been perfect. This is the shop to go to if you’re looking for creativity and beautiful art. The vibe of the entire shop is welcoming and comfortable. Everyone is having a good time and friendly with each other. By far my favorite place to go for tattoos and piercings.
Amazing artists! Super friendly 10/10 would go back anytime
Mixed review...Salem is THE BEST. Get pierced by her, you won’t regret it! She’s so sweet and talented.Terry is super talented and you will be happy with her work once you get past her rude attitude. I had a really rough experience with her fighting my design and telling me she didn’t like it. I spoke to other people who had the exact same experience. It’s strange how abrasive she is with her clients. Not the positive experience I have had with other tattoo artists!
Amazing tattoo studio. I started going here after talking to Jorge, one of the owners, and have not stopped going. The staff is very welcoming and take into account the customers opinions and interests. On the occasions that I needed to reschedule they did not have any issues and gladly adjusted. The artists are very personal with the clients and adjust the artwork as need be to meet every persons needs and wants.
This is the second time I got tattooed by Sabrina and the woman literally takes the idea I have in my head and tattoos it onto my body. She freehanded both and I’ve never been more satisfied with my tattoos.I love working with her overall because she cares about building a relationship with her clients and you can tell she really values the work that she does. I’m SO happy that I found this place.-Maya
I love this studio! Sabrina Elliotte is a very talented and kind artist. She is very considerate to her clients and has a very light and delicate hand while working. She is very accommodating to her clients and ensures their satisfaction before, during, and after the tattoo. Great service, great quality, and great people.
Every time I’m in this shop it feels like visiting family. Everyone is so friendly and open and I really feel safe here. The artists are top notch, some of the best in the world imho and the girl that does piercings is a goddess, I swear she’s got supernatural piercing skills.The aesthetic of the shop (dark, spooky, satanic, all that dope metal stuff 🤘❤️) is juxtaposed but the sweet and caring staff.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
After scheduling a tattoo appointment with Terry I started looking into the other artists and stumbled on Salems IG. Shes a true artist. A next level piercer and I knew I needed it in my life. During my appointment, not only was she super excited about what I wanted to get, but she had all kinds of ideas for me. I loved her energy and enthusiasm, and I cant wait to work with her again soon!
Can’t say enough great things about this place. I truly had a great experience getting my tattoo done at SinnerG Tattoos. Amazing and wonderful people who are dedicated to making your tattoo and experience the best it can possibly be. 100% had a great time and would do it again in a heartbeat.
My daughter was getting her ears pierced for the first time on her 16th birthday. We refused to go to some mall outlet that may, or may not, clean thier guns. We met Salem Black online and knew that was the only way to go. She had a WIDE variety of choices in what we could get. My little gothling got a gold skull and a black ball. Salem asked if we wanted 16g or 14g. She explained the pros and cons of each and let us decide. She never pushed us in any direction but at the same time offered knowledge on both sides. My daughter is over the moon with her professional experience. The shop also had some of the most amazing shirts and witchy bath bombs. The Vlad Tepes shirt was a particular favorite of mine. There is not a person in this shop without expertise. I cannot recommend Salem and the whole staff enough. If you go anywhere else you are making a mistake. This shop, in my opinion, is the embodiment of goth, beauty, grace, and intelligence. Thank you all for making the best birthday ever.
Everyone in this shop is so kind and the decor is stunning! I went in for my appointment with Salem for a piercing. She is so sweet, professional, and sanitary. Especially in pandemic time, its nice to know the precautions taken to make sure its a clean and comfortable experience.
I got a cartilage piercing done at a different place that was irritated and not healing after several months. I came to Salem and she pointed out that it was originally done at a drastic angle, and told me about my options for fixing it. I decided to go with her advice and she re-pierced my ear. I couldnt be happier, it healed so quickly and looks beautiful. I am so glad I dont have to worry about my ear anymore, and they have a gorgeous selection of jewelry! Salem is so sweet, welcoming and genuinely cares about her clients and her craft.
I LOVE SinnerG! Everyone that works here is the kindest, most helpful beings. I have three tattoos from Sabrina and I would follow her anywhere for her work. She is a brilliant artist and always delivers the highest quality. I also have worked with their piercer, Salem, and she is a dream. This shop gives off a vibe that makes you want to keep coming back. Can’t say enough about it. Thank you to everyone there for being so friendly and professional :)
Best tattoo shop Ive ever been to, awesome interior, very clean and great artists
Amazing and professional staff and beautiful tattoos!Love the esthetic of the shop as well!
I’ve seen Sabrina for multiple sessions and she is truly a master at what she does. She is extremely sanitary and professional, and makes sure that her clients feel comfortable. I plan to go back to her for many more tattoos in the future and I 100% recommend her.
I’ve gotten two pieces done by Sabrina and they’re absolutely pristine. The shop is extremely clean. Everyone who works there is generous. Always an amazing atmosphere in there! The works I’ve seen done on other customers by Gwooki and there other artists have also been beyond perfect. Already have my next appointments set up to finish up my sleeve and I’m extremely excited to get it done by Sabrina! Nothing but professionalism for SinnerG Tattoos. 110% recommend getting your tattoo done here!
I didnt get a tattoo, but the staff and atmosphere are both wonderful! They are welcoming and friendly! Looks like their work is great as well!
I could see lot of tattoo styles here, I would like to get one done, I will update soon on my experience.
Absolutely wonderful experience through and through. Terry was very kind, helpful and professional and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire session. I was very satisfied with the cleanliness and sanitation used during preparation and the work itself. The environment and atmosphere was very relaxed and comfortable, will definitely be returning again at some point.
Terry has a horrible attitude and her lack of professionalism is unmatched. Book with literally anyone else
Words can not express how pleased I am with this shop. I got a tattoo and followed it with a piercing. Terry was amazing & her work is gorgeous. She was awesome. I am so happy with my piece. Salem is hands down the best piercer I have ever had. She really knows what she is doing and wants you to be happy with the piercing. The quality of work from all the artist here is immaculate.
If you want to get a tattoo or want a piercing in the Richmond Va area. SinnerG Tattoos is the place you want to go. Also, the shop is where the Memento Mori video from Lamb of God was shot. If its good enough for LoG, its good enough for YOU! Highly recommend! Its a unique blend of dark arts, tattoos, haunted house, and fantastic artists!
5 out of 5 stars / would recommend SinnerG to anyone in a heartbeat. (I can’t wait to go back!!!) I received my first tattoo with Sabrina at SinnerG and the whole experience was AMAZING. I loved everything about the process from our initial conversations to the final “that’s a wrap” moment. 😊It’s HIGHLY important to me that my tattoo artist give me time to talk about the design and express what I’m looking for without feeling rushed. Sabrina gave me the time I needed to talk thru my concept and not rush me. I have six tattoos now and I can tell you that while I always take plenty of time to research who I want to work with, Sabrina ranks super high on my list as a whole. She was on time, prepared (I’ve walked into appointments with other artists/studios and felt the complete opposite 😆), professional, and ready to jump into the whole design conversation when I arrived. (And the studio was clean, clean, clean!) Yay!Richmond is a super special place for me and my partner - and this tattoo perfect encapsulates that feeling/recurring theme perfectly. I love this city and it’s people. 😘Best of all - I LOVE ME NEW PIECE! I am so amazed by Sabrina’s talent!!! I couldn’t have imagined a better design, and the whole process was so FUN! It’s so awesome to connect on a deeper level with Sabrina - and the rest of the SinnerG crew! I loved them all. I really encourage you to review their portfolio of work and sign up to work with someone there to get a tattoo or piercing! 🌸
GO GET PIERCED BY SALEM NOW, THIS IS YOUR SIGN. I went in to get some piercings redone after taking them out for years. I was able to go back and forth with the piercer about what I wanted and she answered all my questions online ahead of my appointment. And once I got there she worked with me on a game plan for the work needed after a consultation for my anatomy and level of scar tissue. After we agreed on an approach she had everything setup and sterile. She communicated every step of the way. When the initial approach wasnt working out to her satisfaction she came up with a new plan of action, explained it thoroughly, got my consent and made it work. I had a blast while there and could not recommend this amazing person any higher, if youre in the area THIS is the place to go. The shop took COVID protocols very seriously and I felt safe there
I highly recommend Salem for piercings! She was incredibly patient with me from the very beginning and put me at ease. I had a TON of questions through email and she responded right away. Ive had painful piercing experiences in the past (literally and figuratively!) and this was the complete opposite. It was enjoyable! Even the piercing felt less painful than my past experience, and she was so much fun to chat with. Definitely go see her!
I got my first nose piercing here by Salem and I couldn’t happier with the result! Everyone at the shop was so kind, welcoming and helpful. Salem explained every bit of the process, did a thorough job of ensuring a pristinely clean environment, and was detail-oriented. It’s very clear she puts a lot of thought into every piercing she does and that she is a highly experienced professional.
I received a tattoo from Terry about a week ago and I can’t explain how awesome both she and the tattoo was. She took the design I verbalized and produced an image that was exactly what I had been picturing. After we already agreed on a final drawing, I had a quick question about the design, and she was very calm and patient while she once again talked me through the image. When it came time for the actual tattooing, she was very hygienic and was a lot of fun to be around! Terry very quickly created a flawless fine line tattoo that is beautiful. The healing process has been exceptional, and everything is looking great. I would 10% recommend Terry to anyone who was thinking about getting a tattoo. Also, a quick shout out to SinnerG as the studio was very clean, professional, and health conscious – which is even more important with the Covid-19 pandemic. I can’t wait to go back for another!
One of the best tattoo shops in Richmond. Local with a real commitment to Richmond based art, tattoo supplies and a very “Edgar Allan Poe”aesthetic.Love the work from all their artists, especially terry downs! She has some of the best fine line work in Richmond, and I trust her for all my tattoos with scripting. She’s also had her work featured on Tik Tok, so you are in beautiful hands!
Posting this review after Sabrina missed my consult appointment for the third time. I’ve been set up for three different consults with Sabrina (she requires a consult) and so far she has called 30 minutes late, over an hour late, and as of half an hour ago hasn’t called from her ‘Restricted’ number at all. For someone who charges $225 an hour for her work, I would expect her to be prompt and professional but I have been very disappointed with this experience.
Getting a tattoo from Gwooki currently, couldnt have asked for a better experience!
I got my tragus piercing done here today and it was a fantastic experience. Everyone at the shop was so kind, helpful, and professional. The jewelry is obviously high quality and beautiful, and the shop takes cleanliness very seriously. I would 100% recommend this shop to anyone!
Great staff. Very clean. Outstanding artist.
Fronkie was a delight to work with. Her art work is amazing! shes easy to talk to, no awkward silences, I was able to zone out when I needed and get a few stretches in. You can tell she wants her clients to be comfortable during the procedure. Youre going to be there awhile, so you should be as comfortable as possible.When I walked into the studio lobby I felt like I was home. Loved the Gothic, dark decor of the place. It really spoke to my inner Goth.I will return for my next piece and highly recommend this place.
They have awesome work. I know the owner Gwooki cool guy that loves his metal & loves tattooing!!! Check him out if you havent yet. Hes very talented.
So incredibly in love with my piece from Fronkie. I gave her a few details and she created something better than I imagined. Can not wait to work with her again.
Sabrina is incredible. She took my ideas and made them even better than I could have imagined. She’s also super kind and gentle. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m in love with my tattoos are absolutely perfect.
Sabrina did an amazing job of personalizing my tattoo. It was my first tattoo and she talked me though the process and really made me feel comfortable/confident. It was a relatively small tattoo but she paid so much to detail, I was very very impressed with her work. I 100/10 recommend getting your tattoo from sinnerg, I don’t think I could ever go anywhere else.
Best tattoo artists in rva - hands down - I have 20+ tattoos and trust me I know . Super clean super professional and you will get your tattoo dreams met !!! Gwooki Fronkie Sabrina that is where it’s at !!! I have gotten also piercing from Salem there and it is amazing !!!
Jorge and Sabrina are more than great artists, they are great people and I have had a blast every time I have been in the shop with them.I have been a client of Jorge (Gwooki) for almost 5 years. Jorge has incredible attention to detail in his work. He has always strived to do his absolute best in designing and tattooing every piece we have worked on.
Sabrina Elliotte is honestly the best. Her art speaks for itself (seriously, look at the work she does, it isb e a u t i f u l), but she’s also so kind, personable, and fun to work with! I’m so glad I got my first tattoo with Sabrina, and while our first session lasted most of the day, I got to hang out with Sabrina & Gwooki, who were just the sweetest. I can’t wait to plan my next tattoo with them ❤️
Sabrina has done two pieces on my calf and the art is excellent! I highly recommend this shop if you are looking for a quality tattoo with artists that are passionate about their work.
Went here for helix piercing. Salem is great! Highly recommend her for all your piercing needs.
Sabrina and George are awesome!!!! Sabrina is my artist and her attention to detail and beautiful light hand are making my work in progress side piece a living work of art!!!
Ive done two sessions with fronkie, one to go. atmosphere is awesomely spooky and all staff are cool. go here or their sister shop two pillars
Gwooi was awesome to work with. The tattoo he did turned out amazing. Its everything you could ask for when getting a tattoo - a clean shop, a good vibe, and an amazing artist. I highly recommend SinnerG tattoos.
Absolutely a 5 star. Between the energy of the artists who are just genuinely passionate people, their story, and especially the intricate quality detail of the finished products, this is a shop that I will rave about until the end of time. If you have an idea, they have the creativity and skill to make it happen. It’s there in the name - Sabrina & Jorge are synergistic with each other, their clients, and their trade. The artwork speaks for itself. Thank you both ❤️! Can’t wait for the next round !
George took the picture I had in my head, improved upon it as only he can do, and I ended up with an even more amazing tattoo than I could have imagined. Clean, professional all while still making it a fun and personal experience. Going anywhere else would be a mistake. Go see these guys they are excellent.
Spectacular artwork and attention to detail. Sabrina and Jorge are exceptionally talented tattoo artists as well as wonderful people. Fine line work that can’t be beat and biomechanic style that’s nearly three dimensional. Can’t wait to get my next tattoo!!
I had 2 sessions with Sabrina and loved all of it! She is professional, easy to talk to, and her work is incredible. She took my words and drew it toperfection! The details constantly make people stop me and ask who the artist is. I would recommend this shop to anyone who wants art work to be proud of!!!!!
Ive had a fantastic experience having George design and complete my tattoos. I went to him for my very first piece and he was so personable and talented that I will go to him for any others I get in the future. Flexible with scheduling, patient and dedicated to awesome work that I get compliments on regularly!
5 stars all the way around! Work speaks for itself. Unbelievable custom ink and the most badass work i have. All coming from 2 great people. I would recommend them to anyone
After my beloved dog passed away, I knew I wanted a tattoo to commemorate her and I went back and forth on what style I wanted. I was afraid of getting a portrait because I wanted it to be perfect. After seeing Sabrina’s work, I was confident that she could do it. My tattoo is absolutely perfect and looks exactly like the picture I sent her. It’s also noteworthy that it’s a pretty small tattoo and she still put in an incredible amount of detail. Aside from being super talented, Sabrina and Jorge are also really friendly and down to earth, which makes for an overall pleasant experience. Highly recommended!
Gwooki is the best tattoo artist and one of the most creative people I’ve ever met. His vision and dark take on the designs he creates is insane. I’ll never trust anyone with my work other than him.
Sabrina took my sad tattoo and turned it into a beautiful piece of art, she made it look better than I ever imagined it would look. She was also so incredibly attentive during the whole process, always asking if I wanted water or coffee or numbing cream. I wouldn’t ever dream of going to a different artist for any detailed/floral work, Sabrina exceeded all of my already high expectations. Such an amazing person, 14/10!!!
Sabrina is unprofessional and egotistical. Her art is a dime a dozen, you can find the same stuff all over the place. Get a tattoo from someone who cares about you as much as they care about how they look.
My mom and I came across Sabrina and her work and asked if she would be interested in doing a mother/daughter matching compass & flower tattoo on our fore arm. Let me just say, Sabrina is absolutely incredible at what she does. She takes attention to detail not just in her tattooing but also listening to her customer of what is desired for the tattoo design. Her line work and shadowing is amazing! She also makes the time spent in the chair enjoyable with her laid back personality. She has definitely earned a loyal customer in me and I’ll be returning to her for more work!
I cannot say enough good things about Sabrina Elliotte. As an artist and as a person she is just wonderful.Two years ago I went to her to get a decent sized upper arm tattoo, after not getting a tattoo in 8 years. I gave her a bunch of vague ideas and noncommittal answers and was just generally the worst. She came up with a gorgeous piece and spent the next few months working on it. I came back a year later wanting to add on around the edges, and she jumped right in. You can’t tell that the outer inch was done a year later, because she made it all blend in so seamlessly. The detail and the line work are just stunning, and I have had probably two dozen people ask me where I had my tattoo done.On a personal note, Sabrina is just a truly lovely human being. She is kind and generous and really cares about people. In fact, I was a little bummed when we were done because I was so used to hanging out with her every few weeks!You cannot go wrong with SinnerG tattoos, and I would recommend them every time.
Gwooki is fantastic. I highly recommend SinnerG!
Gwooki did multiple tattoos for me and did a great job on every one! Great artist and even greater guy!
Sabrina does some seriously beautiful work. Her style is hard to come by where I live, so I was so excited when I found her. She worked with me on the design and was extremely meticulous during the whole tattoo, making sure everything was perfect! She was also super easy to talk to which made the time go by so quickly. Id absolutely recommend her if youre looking for something whos going to put every bit of time and effort into their work!
I cannot say enough good things about the team that is SinnerG Tattoo! Sabrina has worked with me the last couple years on the works of art that now adorn my skin. Her and Gwooki are the most down to earth, compassionate people who provide a great atmosphere and conversation, two important things to me when having a needle in your skin for hours at a time! Sabrina works with you and uses her own creative style to bring your vision to life. She created the most amazing memorial piece on my chest for my late daughter and has put a lot of thought and time into my growing sleeve. If you are looking for people who are not only talented but genuinely care that you are happy with what will remain on you forever, I highly, highly recommend checking them out!!
I can’t say enough good things about Sabrina Elliotte. Her work is amazing, and she did an amazing job of bringing life to a portrait of my pet. The tattoo itself took most of the day and I enjoyed getting to know her and her husband Gwooki, they made a comfortable environment which is important. I will definitely be sticking with Sabrina for all future tattoos!
Gwooki is an amazing artist and I love my tattoos. He did one large tattoo on my arm and one large one on my leg. I am constantly getting stopped and complimented on them. Went well beyond my expectations and I could not be happier with the end result. If you are looking for an amazing tattoo and artist you cant go wrong with Gwooki & Sabrina! I recommend them to everyone I talk to.
Their work is amazing!! Definitely impressed.
Sabrina and her husband George, their work is pristine ! I personally go to Sabrina and she blew me away with the amount of detail, shading, and line work ! I’m about to go back to her this week for a Sternum tattoo. I would highly recommend EITHER one of them! Check them out on Instagram @sabrinaelliotte @gwooki you won’t be disappointed !!
I have two tattoos by Sabrina and will be back for more! She is such a kind human being, each time has been a pleasant experience as Sabrina is very professional and easy to talk to. Her style is top notch and just what Ive been looking for. A lot of blackwork but very delicate and feminine. One of my tattoos is a portrait of my rescue pup Brewer and she blended realistic and blackwork PERFRCTLY. Very much so willing to work with you and accomadate to make sure you are getting exactly what you want. Highly recommend!!!
Excellent work. George(gwooki) took my basic theme idea and did plenty of research on his own time to create a one of a kind freehand biopiece that just blew me away. Although being tattooed for 10 hrs isnt pleasant, the great conversation we shared sure helped ease the pain. I was also fortunate enough to also meet his wife sabrina which also is extremely talented and a pleasure sharing stories with. To meet complete strangers that make you feel like youve been friends for years is priceless, you almost forget your getting a very sick tattoo at the same time. Definitely top notch group of people.
