Third Eye Tattoo is now closed. Citysearch isn't letting me edit the info on my listing, so I have to do it like this. Thank you for a great 15 years. Much love, Maya

The BEST tattoo shop around by far!. I will start out by saying...awesome! I have gone to a few places for ink in the past and while they are ok, I never had a kick ass tattoo that I was happy with until today. And I have had a few bad times while getting tattoos. I spoke to Maya before going there just so she could get an idea what I was looking for. I am a total nut and I was all over the place with my ideas. She was a total pro and helped me out so much. She really took the time to help because she is a pro and wants the client to be happy. And that is no b.s. I found the place real easy and it was very clean. Some shops make you feel like you are getting a prison tattoo. Not here. It was real relaxed and no pressure. The artists are all real friendly and I just had a great time. Then on top of that I got a great tattoo by a real artist. I sound like I am gushing but its because I am really happy with the who experience. I HIGHLY recommend Third Eye Tattoo. And trust me I am going there for all my future work. You won't be sorry, go there.

Major kick-ass and worth travelling to!. Maya gave me my first tattoo about a million years ago (okay, actually it's more like going on 18 years now) and even as a young sapling ;-), did amazing work. I've continued to follow her work over the years, even though I've since relocated from Brooklyn to Portland, Oregon.

When I found out several years ago that she'd opened her own shop, I was absolutely stoked about it, and made sure to bring extra cash on one of my trips back so I could get my next tattoo done. It only seemed right that I should go to Third Eye to get my second tattoo, since Maya had done my first.

Unfortunately, being a walk-in, Maya wasn't available to do the work, but I felt completely in good hands at the shop and was willing to let one of the other artists do the work. It's been 6 years now since that day, and I don't remember the name of the guy who did my tattoo, but I can say without a doubt that as I sit here today and write this, my tattoo STILL looks absolutely GREAT and has "aged" well. I get compliments on it all the time, and people are often surprised to learn that I've had it for as long as I have.

When I first walked into the shop, the first thing I noticed was how clean and professional it was. I was actually VERY impressed. I'd been in other shops in and around NY, and Portland as well, and Third Eye is still the nicest shop I've been in. It's a great atmosphere, the staff is very professional but laid back, and what I really appreciated was that none of it was intimidating the way some shops can really be. I've walked into shops since then to inquire about having work done, and have often felt a weird aura of disdain towards me because I definitely look more "mainstream" on the surface. Or, the places have just seemed unkempt, and that's just NOT something I'm willing to take a chance with.

I've had two tattoos done since getting my second tattoo at Third Eye; the other two, I had done at a small shop in Seattle. BAD IDEA. They suck complete and total ASS. Needless to say, I'll be getting them repaired at Third Eye. Lesson learned, I should have just stuck with my gut and held out for my next trip back to Brooklyn.

I'm planning a trip hopefully in the next month or so, and will ABSOLUTELY be getting work done at Third Eye when I go. It's worth the wait for me, worth the trip, and is the only place I'd trust to have myself permanently altered in such a deeply personal way.

Third Eye Tattoo. I have had beautiful experiences at Third Eye and got all my tattoos there. Had my first tats and piercings from Maya over 15 years ago and they still look fresh. Since then I also have gotten ink from Lou and Brian too. I have never seen more happy clients than I have in this shop. And believe me when I say... Third Eye is sterile sterile sterile! It is a friendly, easy place with great artists... you just have to book ahead because they get so busy. While you can get lucky with the occasional walk-in, but do not count on it at the last minute. I do want to mention that Maya has the lightest touch ever. A real blessing when you're bleeding (or just sniveling a bit.. .... lol..).
