Jersey Sure Lines Tattoo

"I would recommend Jay and Jersey Sure Lines Tattoo to anyone looking to get a tattoo, whether it's your first or your seventh, a cover up or a portrait. For a little bit of background, I am a graphic designer and have always been hesitant about getting a tattoo because of my nit-pickiness and also my paranoia of not wanting to step on another artist's toes. But the design I had in mind for my first tattoo was extremely sentimental and also featured elements that I know can be challenging so I had to be sure that I had the right artist. And after speaking with Jay I was more than reassured in every aspect of the tattoo process. By the time we placed the stencil, Jay had put so much time into the design and it was far more than I could have hoped for. He took elements from my Twilight Zone pinball machine and turned it into a show stopping half sleeve that not only honors my late father, but is also a technical masterpiece. I am beyond proud of the final tattoo and my experience with the shop overall has been absolutely wonderful. I can't imagine going anywhere else!"

"Found these guys on Instagram and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve been going to Jay for about 3 years and I am the most indecisive person when it comes to placement and let me tell you he is patient, gentle, chill and just overall amazing. The hospitality the moment you walk in through those doors just makes you feel like home. Everyone a part of the shop has become family and I could never imagine going anywhere else to get my tattoos."

"tl;dr: This is THE spot for ink in NJ hands down. Initially went to check out this place after a friend got work done that came out fantastic. Knew after a short conversation with Jay that he would be the guy for my next piece. After seeing his freehand work on a difficult coverup, I knew I would only be seeing Jay for all my future work. Extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and prides himself on running a clean and drama free zone. Good luck finding an artist out there who will proudly show you pictures of their healed work months/years later (with no filters!), but Jay will gladly do this. Too many shops in the area dumping ink into people to take a filtered shot for social media which looks great day one but looks like a faded mess weeks/months later. After getting multiple pieces done here, I can say it’s always a pleasure hanging out at the shop and checking out the work the other fantastic artists are doing there as well. After getting multiple tattoos from multiple shops in NJ, I can safely say you would be silly even considering getting ink done anywhere else."

"The second I walked in everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming, everything was done very professionally and clean. All equipment was sterile and made me feel comfortable. My tattoo (by Jay) came out perfect!"

"This shop is the best in Ocean County, hands down! Jay has done a lot of work on me... fine line black and grey to more traditional color pieces. He did little mini color tattoos on my hands that healed so good. All his work heals amazing. Always have fun at the shop and enjoy hanging out with everyone. Clean professional and the work is the best!"
