I recently got a tattoo from Eva at her studio on Grand Street and the entire process was exceptional from start to finish.
I know it comes up time and time again in reviews, but it cannot be overstated — from the moment you step into the studio at Atelier Eva, you feel as though you’ve entered into a spa. Eva has curated a truly incredible environment laced with tranquility. Everything from the furniture to the flow of the space, the gentle sound of moving water, the serene music playing, the ample natural light, the plants, and even the design of the bathrooms exudes serenity. I could not imagine a more comfortable space to get tattooed.
Eva herself is a consummate professional. She took tremendous time and care to understand my intentions for my tattoo and imbued it with her own vision and style. Each step of the process exemplified the care and professionalism Eva brings to her art. This is my third tattoo (first from Eva) and getting tattooed by Eva was distinct in a few ways.
First, I never felt rushed. From our initial consultation to the design process and finally the sizing and placement, Eva gave me the space and agency to feel confident in the tattoo. She encouraged me to take my time, consider my options and voice my questions and feedback to her. She is not only a talented artist, she’s a thoughtful collaborator who brought my vision to life. Unsurprisingly, this relaxed, no-pressure approach left me with a tattoo that I’m in love with. It’s more perfect than I could have imagined.
Second, Eva has the most gentle touch of anyone who has tattooed me. Her delicate style of tattooing is so comfortable and relaxing that I actually fell asleep while she worked on the tattoo. As such, my aftercare and healing process was a breeze. I experienced minimal to no discomfort or bleeding in the days following my appointment and the tattoo has healed beautifully.
Of note, the entire staff of Atelier Eva is just as incredible. They are professional, informative and contribute to the overall experience. Wendy helped me book and confirm my appointment and was patient and kind with addressing any questions, concerns and aftercare needs that I had. Thanks, Wendy!
I cannot thank Eva and the entire staff of Atelier Eva enough. This was far and away the most luxurious tattoo experience I’ve ever had and I look forward to revisiting the studio at some point in the future.
Thank you for sharing your gift with me, I wear your art with pride!
