Redeemer Tattoo 427 East Girard Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19125

"I am simultaneously writing this review of both the shop and the artist, Doug Hand. I've been going to Doug for about two years. He has done several pieces for me. He is an immense talent and a true professional. He is responsive to my numerous emails inquiring about design details. Most importantly, he gives me his professional opinion on what might NOT work; rather than just take a client's money and run, he is genuinely looking out for client in the long run. I will continue to work with Doug at Redeemer tattoo. I've have work done by other artists before, but I am a repeat Doug-customer for a reason."

"I had a fantastic experience at Redeemer Tattoo! I popped in the studio to check it out and met Doug and checked out some flash. Couldn’t have been more chill. Reached out to Ben Red and pitched an idea and he drew up exactly what I was looking for. Super comfortable shop, great conversation with Ben, Makayla, and Doug, and the tattoo came out perfect. Great tattoo, great shop, great people. Can’t ask for more than that. I’ll definitely be going back. Their attention to the small details really makes a difference."

"Redeemer is a beautiful and professional studio that was very welcoming and warm. Clearly a lot of heart went into the design and little details that make the place unique. I got my tattoo from Doug, who couldn’t have been nicer, more patient, or fun to get tattooed by. His expertise comes through in The work, but also his skill as a creative thinker and his ability to work through an idea with you to make sure you get exactly what you want. I couldn’t happier with the results of my broken vase and flowers, which is also a coverup if you can’t tell! I will definitely be returning in the future."

"Believe me, you want to go to Redeemer! All of the artists there are super talented, friendly, and professional. The work that they do there is super clean and expertly done. A friend and I had the pleasure of getting tattooed with Makayla, who does really great bold and unique designs. I have gotten tattoos by Makayla before for both flash and custom designs, which she has always been great at taking my half-formed ideas then putting her spin on it to make for a truly unique and special tattoo. She is really good at putting you at ease during the process and always bangs out really amazing artwork. I will definitely be coming back in and you should too!"

"I had a great experience with Ben Red. I messaged him on Instagram inquiring about a tattoo and he got back to me so fast, fit me in the next day, and did an awesome tattoo. I gave him a pretty loose description of what I wanted, and he drew it and knocked it out of the park!! The energy in the tattoo studio made me feel very comfortable, the studio was very clean and professional. Everyone was so friendly and I just had an overall AMAZING experience. Will 1000% be back to see Ben!"
