Monster Ink Tattoo & Piercing Studio 1540 Carlemont Drive, Crystal Lake, IL 60014

"Facility is very clean and organized. Staff is warm and friendly. I had my earlobes peirced by Marcus and he was very patient and knowledgeable. Definitely will be returning for future services. Also very LGBTQ friendly, which is a huge plus in my books. Highly recommend any service!"

"They are phenomenal! Color, line work, shading. Sanitation, and all around great people. I come from Chicago to Crystal Lake to get tattooed over there. My Tatts get complimented all the time, and they have done cover-ups that don't look like Cover-ups. I wouldn't go anywhere else."

"I was looking to cover up a tattoo I got when I was 16 and was wanting a solid black band. Travis asked me if that was what I really wanted because we could do something really cool and cover it up. He was very patient in working with me on an impromptu design. I am 100% in love with the cover up and 100% grateful I didn't just get a solid black band to cover it up. He was very nice and personable, will definitely be back."

"Travis gave me and my little sister sibling tattoos that turned out amazing! He’s an amazing artist and my sister and I are both very happy. The shop was clean and each artist sterilized their stations as soon as they were done helping someone. Overall would recommend. This is my second time coming here and it’s been a great experience both times!!"

"I have been thinking of getting a tattoo for awhile now and a friend of mine said this place was great. Told the guy at the counter what I wanted he recommended Fee and gave me her email and she responded right away and we were able to set up an appointment just a few weeks from then. This was my first ever tattoo and I love how it turned out if I ever get another in the future I'll be coming back! Update: I did come back exactly one year later and my second tattoo turned out even better!"
