5 5 1 Body Art & Soul Tattoos Service Irene Hoffmann I just found the most fabulous tattoo shop in Brooklyn. I have researched everything in NYC - I came upon this shop this month and felt welcome right away. The person at the front desk was very friendly and knowledgeable; no one was pushy. The atmosphere is so inclusive, artists are of different ethnicities and gender - wow! what a difference compared to what's out there. I looked at some of the artists' designs; impressive. I have some friends overseas who want to become apprentices here. They spoke to several people at BAS about it and were treated great - no one was pushy. I am thrilled they will have this chance to be in nyc and study with BAS. Thank you BAS! This review below makes no sense to me - I guess some people are always unhappy
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Stopped by for a Friday 13th tattoo & loved it. Really welcoming & laid back.” -Jenny C. from New Haven
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The artists here are so wonderful and talented, I love showing this place to all of my friends because of how inclusive everyone at the shop is. I don't feel like I can trust the artists- I KNOW I can. The service is excellent, the tattoos are bomb, and the people are absolute angels. Definitely try this place at least once, whether it's your first tattoo or your 50th.” -Krystyna H. from Philadelphia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I have had work done by two artists here and i just love how genuine and amazing everyone is here. I travel 55 minutes just to get here every time and it's always worth it!!! Kash did my memorial tattoo for my mom who recently passed away, and i love it so much…” -Nicole S. from Philadelphia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Called on a Sunday and walked in the next day to get my tattoo done. I emailed a picture of it to one of the artists and he had it all drawn up waiting for me. He was so patient and even helped me decide where to put it. Great experience here!” -Lara B. from Philadelphia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Everybody was so nice. The atmosphere was very chill and the shop itself was very clean and very organized. My friend and I were tattooed by Christian.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I struggle to put into words how pleased I am with my experience at Body Art & Soul. I went with some classmates while on a field study last week on fairly short notice, artists were very patient with us, extremely kind, and made great work! I certainly hope that there's another trip to NYC in the future for me, and if there is, I know that I will no doubt be making my way back to this parlor.” -Carly M. from Brooklyn

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I got a tattoo behind my ear of a stethoscope that kind of morphs into a heart with an ekg line at the end of it. I had initially planned to get it all in black, but the artist suggested a fade of red to black on the heart, and I LOVED it. She was so quick, not heavy handed at all, and her artistry is clearly on point. The pricing was great too, and I didn't have to wait long when I went (and I was a walk in!). I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone in the area! So clean, and the service is amazing!” -Karami from Brooklyn
