5 stars for my girl Chloe (@bugpin.bunny)… best guest artist experience ever! i travelled in from Long Island, we collaborated on 4 tattoos and they came out better than i could’ve dreamed!! She truly takes the vision and produced it so effortlessly… no questions asked, AND with incredible quality. I have a bunch of tattoos and 4 of them from her prior to these… and her work is ALWAYS the ink that gets complimented the most!! she truly is the ultimate fine-line tattooer. Can’t express my gratitude enough for her flexibility, communication, collaboration, and VIBESSSSS!!! Can’t wait to get inked by her again in the near future, she always delivers at the highest quality

We got at NO IDOLS for an appointment session with Gabe (Ig:@gabetattoos) and ended up spending the whole day there getting two tattoos. The vibe was super chill and welcoming, full of great talking and jokes.
The next day, Ermis (Ig: @ermisart) helped us with changing the second skins - really appreciated that.
The spot is on the best street in New York - Orchard ❤️ Thanks a lot, we’ll definitely be back!

What a place! Together with my husband we got here accidentally, just wanted to get first tattoo to be done in NYC - and it turned out to be a pure destiny. Very welcoming shop with helpful staff and talented artists. Gabe left a masterpiece on my arm and entire session was simply a smooth experience. The day after we needed to change our second skin and here Ermis from the team helped us out, sharing some local tips on LES area. Highly recommended this shop as one that live and breathe the art of tattooing. Will back there for sure! :) btw, not only appointments are needed - walk-ins are welcome.

From entering the shop to getting my tattoo from Jon Mesa, and leaving, the experience was relaxing, professional, friendly and worth the wait. Jon is soft-handed, laser focused and detailed. Many other tattoo shops told me that they can only do a version of what I wanted, Jon tattooed exactly what I wanted. I'm setting up an appointed for my next tattoo, within a week. If you're searching for real artist...come to No Idols Tattoo!
This is not AI😁 Went back for my second tattoo and as you can see, Jon is an amazing artist! I cannot wait to finish my full sleeve, then do my other arm. I have told all my friends about No Idols Tattoo on 75 Orchard Street in Manhattan. If you want a real lifetime tattoo, Jon Mesa will give you one!

I stopped by only for a consultation but the staff and tattoo artist where available so I did a small piece. Everyone is so professional and friendly. I really enjoyed my experience. I will definitely return for a bigger piece. And I recommend them for first time tattoo or for traditional style desing!
