Red Thorn Tattoo 1731 Maryland Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21201

"Absolute WORST tattoo experience of my life. Definitely not going back or recommending this shop to anyone ever. Combination of false confidence, lacking self-awareness, gate-keeping, drug use etc. If you're considering getting work here, it would be wise to look elsewhere. Don't like "one star" reviews? Don't provide one star service."

"I had an amazing experience with Emily on Saturday. I reached out to her to see if she would be able to touch up a tattoo that was done at another shop. She was super friendly and helpful through the planning phase and made me feel at ease. The tattoo I wanted to have touched up was a tribute piece for my parents, and the initial shop did not reach the vision I had in mind. Not only was Emily super quick, but also her tattooing itself was very gentle, and she checked in with me at various points. The shop itself had a really nice vibe to it and everyone there was very friendly. I am looking forward to getting more work done by her in the future. Thank you so much for making my special piece a complete one."

"Absolutely loved this shop! Not many places seemed to allow walk-ins and on a snowy Saturday I walked into Red Thorn. I was tattooed by Emily, she did an amazing job with the piece and her attention to detail is top notch! Definitely going to get some more work in the next few weeks"

"I have gotten two tattoos done from Red Thorn Tattoo. Ones my mothers name an the other is something identifying the time I have till we share time together again. Aslo the detail work they provide before tattooing your body is nice because it shows the customer how the Tattoo will come out. I've had a good experience an look forward to going back in the future."

"Ryan does amazing work. I traveled 3000 miles from Seattle to get this banged out with him. You won’t find a better artist or shop in the area. I highly recommend you get an appointment with him now before he blows up and you’re stuck waiting months for him."
