Sacred Art Tattoos & Piercing

Although I seldom give negative reviews and I am a big supporter off local businesses, I feel I must share my personal experience to save others from making the same mistake that I made. Wanting to support local, I had my very first tattoo done here in June of 2015. For starters, I found the man quite arrogant, but I was already there and got it done nonetheless. It was only afterwards that I was informed on proper practices when I went to another shop to get it redone (change of colour). This tattoo artist knew what she was doing. She pointed out that my skin had been permanently scarred by the previous artist (I still feel the indent in my skin today). This was so prominent that she had trouble tracing in some spots as it wasn't a smooth surface. I have since gone to that shop for any work and will never step foot in Sacred Art in Rockland again. Another detail that she pointed out by putting a template over it, is that the supposed circular part of the tattoo was a big oval and not a circle at all.

Not very reliable. I would give a big 0 if I could. I sat outside waiting for him to open. DO NOT REFER TO THE GOOGLE HOURS. Clearly they are incorrect as 6 other people and I waited outside from their "opening time" (12 pm) to 1pm. One girl had put a down payment of $80.00 on her tattoo, she had an appointment at 12:30pm. The owner didn't show for her tattoo appointment. I called the phone number and it rang 2x then I got the default automated message. I left without my piercing jewelry. Disappointed, probably not as disappointed as the pretty girl who didn't get her scheduled tattoo.

Dave, the owner and artist, does great work and pricing is quite reasonable. Selection of piercing hardware and accessories is excellent.

I got my tatto done years ago. Dave is really amazing. I got cursed seal mark done and it was perfect. Hos prices are reasonable and he does not try to rip you off selling you expensive cream. Ignore the negative reviews Dave is awesome. I wish he was still in Ottawa.

Just yesterday Dave created a BEAUTIFUL floral piece for my shoulder/arm that turned out absolutely phenomenal!!!! I would highly 100% recommend Sacred Arts, over other shops. Amazing and diverse artist, very clean and sanitary shop, and a great tattoo experience !! 10/10 would recommend.
