On the Grid : Black Cat Tattoo

"Black Cat is a hand poke tattoo studio, art space, and shop, where women run the show but inclusion is key. Primarily focusing on traditional methods of tattooing, Black Cat has a roster of local artists wielding some classic ink, as well as stocking the space with leather goods, patches, apparel and heaps more. Nestled in the heart of Fernwood square, this dynamic parlor strikes a fine balance between witchy and wonderful, with some classic rock and old folk style thrown into the mix." - Friends & Neighbors

I had a tattoo appointment with Angela and couldn’t be happier with both the process and the result. She took so much care and time to make sure the design and stencil were placed perfectly, exactly how I wanted them. Throughout the session she was very caring, always checking in and offering breaks when needed. And the tattoo itself turned out absolutely incredible!

Ang is a not only a phenomenal artist, but also so personable and easy to talk to while making you feel comfortable during tattooing. I have four total tattoos from her over the years, the first one being while she was still an apprentice, and she has proved consistent with the quality of her work and kindness, it’s always such a pleasure getting tattooed by her. She makes the process so enjoyable I will definitely continue to be getting tattoos from her in the future.

I'm so happy I found Kaman to help give me my first tattoo. She was beautiful to work with at Black Cat. So gentle, listens to what you want to accomplish, follows through with all the details involved. I just love the result. Thanks Kaman.

I recently had my tattoo's done by Kaman at Black Cat, and she was lovely! I am super happy with the detail and time she put into my tattoos, and the entire experience was great. I strongly recommend this Artist and tattoo shop for your next piece. I hope to be back again soon!

Excellent space. I saw a guest artist but the whole place had a lovely atmosphere, great open spaces and natural lighting, and was very clean and welcoming. Everyone was respectful, attentive, caring and kind. Another customer had an issue and fainted, and everyone made sure to take care of them and make sure they were okay. 10/10 experience Only downside I could see is it isn't wheelchair accessible!

The shop is amazing!! Very spacious and bright, decorations are very cute, especially the taxidermy rat on the shelf. Did my first tattoo with Kaman Lu, she is amazing!!! She is very understanding and makes accommodations till you feel 100% confident in the tattoo. All the other artists are very nice too. Totally recommend everyone in the shop to go to for your tattoos!!

One of the best shops in town. I have always felt incredibly welcomed & comfortable at Black Cat. The quality of work from all the artists, both permanent & guests, is amazing. Robin Graves is especially fantastic & has the lightest hand in the city! She's great to sit for. Can't wait for my next tattoo there!!

I've had two custom tattoos done by Cate at Black Cat and had an amazing experience each time! Each healed great & I get tons of compliments. The space is clean & welcoming, everyone there has always been very friendly, and Cate was wonderful and professional at every step of the process. Great artists, super reasonable rates, and a very cool community-minded space. I'd recommend it to anyone whether they're getting their first tattoo or are filling in the little space they have left.
