My artist Mima tattooed penguins and ladybugs on me and it came out so beautiful! The place has a very comfortable atmosphere and the customer service was amazing; Mima was very sweet! I had such a positive experience and would definitely come back here.

10/10. Can’t wait to get tatted here again ‼️ - Mima is truly the most gifted, amazing & kindest tattoo artist I’ve ever met. It was a pleasure to have her create this beautiful piece for me. She has the friendliest soul and personality. There were times I felt her excitement for the piece outweighed mine lol. Which in hindsight I’d say I’m very grateful for 😭. Mima made the entire process very simple. I came to her with as many reference photos as I possibly could and within a few days she had already come up with ideas for the stencil. She possesses the perfect balance between perfectionism, patience & poise. She made sure I was comfortable with every version and update to the piece she made before ever putting the needle on my body, until I knew for sure which version it was I wanted. Throughout the entire process Mima was always open to constructive criticism and not once did I feel like I was being pushed or forced to get a tattoo I didn’t want. - L.O.V.E Machine is by far the greatest shop in all of NYC. I’m definitely recommending it to any and everyone. From the moment I stepped foot in to the shop, all I sensed was a warm polite nature throughout. Everyone is so respectful, patient and enthusiastic. You can tell that every artist shares deep pride in their work. Throughout my few sessions/touchups there was never a moment I felt judged or unwelcome. If anything I felt encouraged and safe to be myself. - Thank you again so much to L.O.V.E Machine and Mima for this wonderful tattoo. I will definitely be returning for another in the near future. 🙏

Cannot say enough good things about my tattoo experience with Mariana. Came for two cover-ups and she absolutely blew it out of the park. I like all of my tattoos but I simply love the one Mariana did for me. Her artistic talent is truly incredible. If you are looking for exceptional color tattoos, I highly recommend Mariana. This was also my longest tattoo session by far (a full day), but Mariana made it so much more bearable. Everyone else at the shop was so nice and friendly. Plus, the whole studio is decorated in original artwork by the artists. I will definitely be back for more tatts!

Got my first ear piercing ever here by Joe Snake - super cool, chill, and relaxed dude. The chill vibes actually helped me feel really relaxed and prepare for the piercing - which was also quick. Process was straightforward, professional, and no fluffs. Everyone is friendly and relaxed, and all the artwork on the walls are actually done by the tattoo artists at the shop which is a nice touch. Will definitely be back for my next piercing :)
