OH MY GOD! Just walked out of here with the most amazing looking tattoo! I have about 50 in all covering both arms and this just took top spot as my fave!! I enjoyed every moment of my experience here! My artist Chuck was top draw bloke and we had a lot of fun. The care he took of my tatt..the attention to detail..its just perfect! He was super organised, the least painful tattoo ive ever had, changed his gloves maybe 5 times..super impressed. The shop is very clean..and busy!! Guys on reception were very friendly both on the phone and in person. Cant reccomend enough. My tatt is healing so no photo but i live 2 mins away so if anyone wanted to check out the quality of the tatt id be happy to pop down! I also looked in on a couple of the other artists as they were tattooing...really good stuff..one by a guy downstairs just next to reception was doing a spiderman tatt and was awesome..after he was doing Jimi Hendrix and my goodness was epic! Get inked here!!!

Nothing special. I hate to leave less than good reviews however, not impressed. Went in with a couple of friends while visiting who said they were recommended to go here. The guy who did my tattoo could have been friendlier. While they do offer lifetime touchup on tattoos... I have 7 other tattoos, this tattoo was the first that I noticed withing days that I would need an immediate touchup on it, as does my friends, who also got a tattoo that night. Not sure if just the artist or the ink. Place was clean but honestly might just go to my usual tattoo shop and have them redo it instead of dealing with the hassle going back.

I had the artist Jared for an appointment for 12:00 PM. I set my appointment months in advance. For starters, it seemed as though he wasn’t even aware of my appointment. When I arrived, he was late by over an hour. Eventually, when we started the appointment, he was extremely unenthusiastic about having me as a client. I honestly didn’t think he wanted to do my tattoo or be at work that day. All of this is okay for another job, but it’s unacceptable for a service based profession. I hope that the other artists at Generation Tattoo don’t treat their clients in the same manner.

A clean and well run business with clearly talented artists. The owner would walk around to say hello to clients and see how the artists were going.
I personally had my work done by a guest artist, Vlad. His work is incredible, but it's also easy to see from their Instagram that the local artists are also amazing. This is what attracted me here in the first place, over any other spot around Melrose.
