    I reached out to Ink Living for a quote for a tattoo I wanted to get. From providing the quote to finalizing my appointment, the staff was very easy to deal with and was very helpful! In terms of price, they also gave me a very fair price. I talked to at least a couple other tattoo artists, & the quote they gave me was double & triple the price that Ink Living provided. On the day of my appointment, Justin worked with me and made sure that the design of the tattoo that he prepared for me was accurate (placement, size and font/design). Huge shout out to Justin who took his time and was very gentle the entire time. The piece came out just the way I like it! Justin, thank you very much for this piece. I'll be back!

    Had a wonderful experience! From booking to the actual day, everything was seamless. Sam was very responsive when I was inquiring about their services. Their studio was clean and organized. Abril was my artist and she was on-time, professional and friendly. She made sure that everything was in place and that I was comfortable when she started. Would definitely go back and recommend to my family and friends. Thank you Ink Living Color Tattoo team! :)

    My sister scheduled an appointment with Liz to get her ears pierced and I decided to get mine done too. I was very gracious to find out that I could get mine done on the same day despite the very short notice. During the session, Liz was extremely professional and helped alleviate our anxiety about getting our first piercings. She chatted with us during our time at her station and made sure to check in with us frequently to make sure we were feeling comfortable the whole time. The owner of the shop, Sam, also popped by to chat and check in on us too. Sam was super friendly and remembered me from a tattoo session I had over a year ago. Despite the initial pain of getting pierced - I would definitely come again and recommend this shop to anyone looking for the same services 👍👍

    Ink Living Color is exactly the type of place you gotta go if you need an awesome tattoo! Jay is a fantastic artist, extremely friendly and talented, whereas Sam is really attentious and willing to help in any way he can. The whole team does an incredible job at making people feel comfortable and giving confidence on the work they offer. The space is super clean and well taken care of, you can feel confident you will leave the shop with an awesome tattoo! Thank you for being so great!

    Had a great experience at Ink Living Colour!! I went for a walk-in tattoo and the staff were all very friendly and professional. My artist, Abril, made me super comfortable and did an amazing job with the tattoo I wanted. Would definitely recommend this place and I will be coming back!

    The shop is conveniently located in a P-mall esque shopping concourse in a building with a food basics, LCBO and restaurants. Karen did two cute Halloween flash tattoos of my puppies. They came out so well. I love them.

    I love this place. I’ve tried a couple tattoo shops in the past, and this is the only one I came back to, and recommend other ppl go to. My artist was Abril. She is so sweet, kind and gentle. Her work is pretty great too!! Sam (possible shop owner) is wonderful as well. Very friendly. I will definitely be going back :)

    Had a great experience at this tattoo studio! The artists were all very professional, friendly and nice to talk to. I got a flash piece from lotus and I am so happy with it. 2 weeks later now and it is healing so well. I will definitely be back to this studio in the future. Thanks again!

    Great experience! Karen was so gentle and patient while I was getting my piece done :) The design is beautiful, and the finished product looks fantastic! Also, thank you to all the staff that were so great and helpful.

    Courteous, expedient, thorough and professional service. Very calm environment with super cool art work, talented artists and reasonable prices. I worked with Karen, Sam and Julia specifically but everyone was great! My experience was so relaxing it felt more like a spa visit! I will definitely be back for future work. Highly recommend to anyone expecting an exceptional experience.

    Love this place love the people super friendly love the environment very nice and chill. My friend actually recommended me this place and I’m very happy that she did because I’m very pleased with my tattoos. My second one Abril she added her own design, interpreted it into the tattoo that just made my tattoo 100 times better than what I had imagined it to be, definitely recommend this place for your first tattoo. You will not regret it.

    I am very pleased with the tattoo done today. I love the patience, and me being picky to get the satisfied design. Tania, the artist, and Sam both are truly amazing people. They took the time to understand my design and work with it. I had bad experience with previous artists to even set up a consultation for this design and it was a hard struggle to get the "dream" design. Sam is amazing at understand the meaning and relating that to the design. He took the time to explain all details and ensure every aspect was met to my standards. Tania is the amazing artist with very great lines and shadows to incorporate the amazing tattoo. Definitely, will be back here with future designs. Thank you. Keep up the amazing positive energy and thanks for fulfilling the design. The underlying message was: set yourself free and be the best version of yourself. Amazing day, amazing vibes. Definitely 💯 will be back 5/5. Anyone who is wanting a tattoo definitely check out their instagram and get connected with this amazing group.

    Me and my brother got matching chest tattoos here done by @jayxink The quality of the art well surpassed our initial expectations, both pieces came out amazing. The staff all are super chill and easygoing, we were able to bring friends over to chill in their home studio, watch shows and blast music on their tv's, go out for smokes with the artists and have food during the sessions. Price's are unbeatable as well Extremely happy to have found this shop

    Went a few days ago and got the nicest lion on my upper back and the sexiest script on my spine. The outcome was incredible. Anisia was my artist and she is literally so talented its crazy. Her work reflects her skills and I would definitely recommend her. Everyone else there is amazing as well, the environment is super chill and so helpful of anything you might need. Their customer service skills are fantastic and the overall experience was very memorable. I will definitely be coming back.

    An absolutely wonderful tattoo studio! I called in for a tattoo and was booked in right away. Jay was my tattoo artist and it was done exactly the way I envisioned it. Skilled in fine lines and shading, Jay was meticulous with it all. I am absolutely in love with the work done and have received many compliments on it ever since! Owners of the shop were also very wonderful people! They ensured that my experience was top notch. Highly highly recommend!

    Highly recommend this shop! I got a tattoo with artist Abril, who she does some of the best work. She was very easy to reach out to and book with, and the quote she had to offer was very reasonable for the degree of her work. To begin with, she was very patient throughout the whole process, even constantly going over, and replacing the design I wanted to make sure the placement was just to my liking. Her touch is delicate and comforting - which is exactly what you want to look for especially if you’re a newbie to the tattoo world, or you just don’t do so well with pain. Also, the entire staff does a great job to welcome you and make the environment warm. They collectively gave me a lot of tips on how to properly heal and take care of my tattoos and piercings. The store manager Justin even took the liberty of going above and beyond in guiding me through some issues I was having with work that wasn’t done by them. I will definitely be returning for future work :)

    I could not have been more pleased with my experience LivingInkStudo. From the beginning Sam and H were a joy to communicate with. Liam is an awesome artist. The tattoo and design were gorgeous! He made sure I was happy with the size, placement and the design before we began and I'm so happy with it. He did an amazing job! Absolutely no complaints, and I would definitely book with Liam again.

  • 5/5 Daniel G. 2 years ago on Google
    It was a pleasure working with Samuel through the planning process of my new tattoo-he was very patient while I worked through several iterations of the design. Jay (my artist) was similarly great. Very patient upon my arrival with last-minute design tweaks. This shop uses modern design technology, so the accuracy and options for quick customization are practically limitless. The session, while 5-hours long, was a breeze. We counted while I was there, and I had 16 tattoos before we started-this one turned out to be the smoothest and most painless of them all. Credit to an experienced artist in Jay, and the state-of-the-art tattoo machines he used. The best part of the experience, was that I truly felt at home being there. I was checked-in on regularly, given breaks, offered drinks and my own choice of music during the stay (Sam Cooke). I would highly recommend this place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • 4/5 Palak B. 2 years ago on Google
    I visited this place recently and the first thing that I want to say about this place is "the team is fairly new with an experience of 2-5 years", they are rebuilding the name post pandemic and are struggling with managing the appointments. My experience with Jay was fairly good, he did justice in his work, he was calm, patient and professional. Studio maintain acceptable hygiene, artists knows their job well, if they can improve the management of appointments then this place deserves a 5 star rating but for now I rate them 4 stars.

  • 5/5 Amir K. 2 years ago on Google
    I was extremely impressed with my whole experience at INK LIVING COLOR TATTOO STUDIO. They were very professional and extremely skilled. Sam has trained and perfected his staff in offering high quality customer service experience for clients and unparalleled skill sets that his staff possessed. My artist, April, has done such amazing job by be meticulous with details and line works. everyone has been asking me who did my tattoo. I strongly recommend INK LIVING COLOR TATTOO STUDIO and I will be going back for more tattoos soon. 5 Stars for sure.

    Lovely people with a lovely studio! I visited them in March for a memorial tattoo - A rose vine on my hand. I reached out to them on Instagram. I was communicating with Sam initially and showed him a few references and designs. He guided me well and recommended Jay for the job. Jay designed my tattoo and Sam’s recommendations made it a pretty solid one! I almost backed out coz i was feeling a bit anxious and was about to get something safer (smaller) but I am glad they gave me that push! Jay is a professional and my experience with him was pretty good! He was chill and pretty patient throughout. We also ended up having some good conversations. Their studio is amazing and i felt pretty comfortable. Its clean, bright and cozy. Everybody who works there is nice and friendly :-) Overall, just love my tattoo and glad i got it from here. Totally recommend them and Jay.

  • 5/5 Colin M. 1 year ago on Google
    I decided to go here for my 3rd tattoo, and I’m glad I did. The staff were very friendly and cooperative, and showed a lot of care and dedication when finalizing my design for me. Great atmosphere, very comfortable, I felt no judgement. I would definitely recommend to anybody, these guys are great!

  • 5/5 Andrew M. 10 months ago on Google
    If you're looking for an artist that specializes in micro realism, Jay was awesome and is very talented! 5/5 for Jay. Also a 5/5 experience with the shop itself. It was great to meet the owner Sam and that also contributed to an amazing experience. I felt like I was treated as a friend rather than a customer. I definitely found my favourite tattoo shop and my experience here went above and beyond expectations.

  • 5/5 Yvonne L. 1 year ago on Google
    Well what can I say, going in there for my first tattoo yesterday (in memory of my Mom who we lost 6 months ago), I was very nervous but staff put me at ease very quickly. They were all so friendly and very professional, the tattoo artists did an amazing job with mine and my daughter Amandas' tattoos. We will without a doubt be going back and referring them to everyone we know...Ink Living Color Tattoo Studio, you made two new customers for life yesterday ❤️❤️

  • 5/5 Mathee 1 year ago on Google
    I had my first multi-session tattoo piece done here and the experience was beyond 10/10. From the receptionist, to the owner, to the artist, all great, warming people. I had come in with a custom piece in mind and Abril and Sam had worked together to craft the masterpiece that is now on my arm. They did a great job listening and bringing it all together within the tight budget I had. Huge shoutouts to Abril, who is an amazing, talented artist! I had 3 sessions and walked out of each, impressed with what she had done! Ironically, I had come to this shop after a visit to Chronic Ink and the experience was the polar opposite. Would highly recommend Ink Living over any other tattoo studio!

  • 5/5 Helia E. 1 year ago on Google
    Amber killed ittt!! The shop is super nice. The other artists and manager are super friendly and welcoming. If you want a super detailed and realistic tattoo while having a great experience, this would definitely be the place for you.

  • 5/5 Zakirah A. 10 months ago on Google
    Had the pleasure of coming to the studio! The artists are so friendly and give you lots of information. The environment is very chill and super clean and sanitary. Cass absolutely KILLED my half sleeve and Abril gave me a beautiful little tat for the $75 promo. I will def go back. Great artists, great vibes!

  • 5/5 Virginia B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing experience getting a beautiful floral quarter sleeve fine line tattoo by Abril! Everyone was so nice and made me feel super comfortable. And the tattoo turned out better than I could have imagined. I get so many compliments. Will definitely be going back.

  • 5/5 Nic 10 months ago on Google
    I had an amazing experience here getting my third tattoo. I got a flash design done by Abril, and they were so kind. I love showing off my tattoo and everyone I show it says that the detail is amazing. Clean/sterile space, friendly and inviting, a small Toronto gem!!

  • 5/5 A F. 1 year ago on Google
    Got my first tat here and the experience was immensely exciting and remarkably satisfying. I was so nervous and didn’t know what to expect, but the staff were very friendly and made it feel like home. It was incredible to know such passionate people who take pride in their work. Alberto was impressive on smooth shading and attention to detail. He was also extra helpful and considerate since it was my first tat. Definitely recommended! You’ll leave their shop wanting to come back for more.

  • 5/5 Sarona t. 1 year ago on Google
    I loved it. Everyone there was just so kind and sweet. I did two tattoo's there, and my tattoo artist was Abril. She was sweet, and she was very clean and neat. The owner was also amazing as well. My tattoo's were well done. I'm looking forward to doing my next tattoo there.

  • 5/5 Edmund S. 1 year ago on Google
    Just wanted to say that I am very happy with Bri’s work on my inner bicep. I especially like the fine lines and the minimalistic look. Sam also facilitated the process and followed up with me multiple times before and after the appointment. For my tattoo aftercare, I was given a protective sleeve to wear for three days and some Hustle Butter lotion.

  • 5/5 Jessajen A. 1 year ago on Google
    Got my first ever tattoo last Tuesday. A very easy experience, the staff are very accommodating and responsive to my inquiries. Efficient quality service not only for the tattoo itself but customer service too. My artist, Jay, did a really good job with the moon design I gave him and been getting a lot of compliments from it. Really a worth it experience given its my first time! Kudos team. Would recommend 10/10. All the best!

  • 5/5 Sybil N. 1 year ago on Google
    I've waited a few months before posting just to give my tattoo some time to "settle". Highly recommend Ink Living! I loved working with Abril - attentive and meticulous. My tattoo were combined signatures of my parents and required very fine work. No complaints as the owner was also wonderful and accommodating. No hesitation coming back!
