This was my first time ever getting a tattoo and my experience is something that I will cherish forever! Caitlyn was my artist and she made me feel comfortable and at ease. The procedure was super painless and I am definitely going back for more! I totally recommend this place! 😊 especially for first timers!

Tannis is the BEST. She did a large cover up for me and I never imagined it would ever look as good as it came out! Everyone was super nice and made me feel comfortable which is super important when you’re going to a new shop. will definitely be going here from now on!

Black Rabbit is a really welcoming and neat shop where all the tattoo artists are talented. I decided to work with Alyssa and I couldn't have been happier. While it's never number one on my list to have my tattoo artist be friendly and personable, it is important to me to be able to have an artist I can feel comfortable being around for 6+ hours. Alyssa was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. She made what can definitely be an uncomfortable process into something that went by pretty quickly, despite not being very quick at all. As for the art she did, Alyssa doesn't do art that's 1 to 1. Instead, she keeps the essence of the tattoo and keeps true to the character she's working on, but she adds her own flair to make them adorable. I personally love kawai, chibi, cute tattoos and my new Rosalina and Luma tattoo from Alyssa still managed to exceed my expectations. It came out way better than I could have pictured in my head. I'm blown away and upset with myself for not going sooner. If you'd like to not make the same mistake that I did, book with Alyssa or check out her work on Instagram (RisuTattoo)

10000/10 tattoo experience. I went with my best friend today to get matching tattoos with Raigan and we were both blown away by the experience. We both have plenty of tattoos and so are familiar with the process/vibes/etc. First impressions- the shop is gorgeous and heavily decorated in anime and other kinds of art (including some k-pop pieces at artists’ stations that we appreciated). The front desk person was friendly, charming, and helpful. Raigan came up and showed us the design she had made, with different options for us to choose. We were immediately happy with it the way it was but I’m sure she would have been very receptive to feedback. The tattooing process was extremely chill. The artists all chatted freely which gave everything a cool, comfortable vibe. The main topic of conversation was anime which we also really vibed with. Raigan did an AMAZING job on our tattoos. It’s my favourite tattoo out of all the ones I’ve gotten. She was very informative, knew what she was talking about, was very knowledgeable about using colour on darker skin (for my friend), and had a light gentle hand. Seriously look at this line work it’s so good. I’ll be coming back to Black Rabbit for my next tattoos for sure. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

Love love love 💕 My tattoo by Raigan @strawbbink was wonderful! While my choice of tattoo wasn't her norm I could see the art in her work! Her talent was on point and she made me very happy I chose her. She catered to my comfort and modesty with a screen a paper sheet. She was nothing but respectful throughout the experience and my tattoo is stellar! I'm definitely returning!
