Keys on Kites Tattoo & Gallery

They do great work the environment is super chill relaxed and you can always get a good laugh. Darius does my tattoos and he's amazing at what he does.

Mati was a fantastic piercer! Super professional, knowledgeable, clean, and quick. He talked me through the whole thing and was able to do the piercing quickly. He was very knowledgeable on anatomy and was able to make recommendations based on that. He was very professional and I felt very comfortable with him. It's been about a month since I've been there and my piercings are healing great! Will definitely come back in the future

I’ve come here for both piercings and tattoos and these guys are hands down some of the best guys in the business. Mati has done a few piercings on my sister and I and he’s super professional and makes sure you’re happy with the placement before piercing. Eric, the owner did my Japanese dragon sleeve and he killed it! One of the most creative and coolest artist around and I can’t wait to go back and get more work done. Everyone at this shop is awesome and they’re all great artist. You will definitely leave this shop happy and excited to show off your new tattoos or piercings.

So happy with my little slice! Walked in on a Saturday afternoon and was taken right away. I wanted a little souvenir from my trip and Katie gave me exactly what I was looking for. Shop was clean and professional. Definetly reccomend for someone looking to get quality work done.

Switched out my conch piercing that was originally too short - super nice, clean, gave great advice and now with a longer stud to allow room for healing. 100% recommend for anyone looking to get piercings here.

I could not have envisioned a better experience! Mati was so friendly and personable and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. I let him know I was very nervous and he took the time to chat and joke around with me until I was ready. The piercing itself was super quick and pretty much painless. I 100% recommended Mati and will definitely be back for another piercing soon!

I came to accompany my gf as she got a piercing. Mati was professional, competent, and friendly. He really seemed to know what he was doing and answered all of our questions. I'd recommend him. The place is cash only so stop by an atm first.

I scheduled an appointment with Darius. His usual style is traditional but I got something that was just line work. He did a fantastic job. He definitely has a very steady hand. Part of my tattoo is a quote and the lettering he did is perfect. I really love the design he came up with. It isn’t his preferred style, yet he still captured what I wanted. He also was very helpful when I asked him questions about the placement of my tattoo. I didn’t express it enough when I went in, but I’m really happy that he was the one that ended up doing the memorial piece that I got done. Overall the shop is dope and it seemed like it has a good atmosphere. Covid kind of impacts what’s up right now, but despite that, it’s a great shop that everyone I know raves about constantly.

I have a few tattoos from keys on kites. Every time I go they are very knowledgeable. I was interested in a few different ideas for my tattoo, and the artist Eric did some background history and gave me a great explanation of why he chose to draw the design and placement, with the look I was going for. The shop is definitely run with order and professionalism. The cleanliness from walking into the lobby, and each professional tattoo artist room is very reassuring. I would recommend this shop to anyone who has just an idea or thought of a tattoo, because there’s no place that will advise you better. The work speaks for itself. I can’t thank Eric enough for the one of a kind designs and the consistent perfection to detail.

I came from Baltimore to spend time with family and decided I wanted a tattoo while I was there since here in Baltimore, every shop had limited openings. I called this shop the day before I left town and someone was texting me within 30 minutes. I got there, they greeted me immediately and got to work with 15 minutes of my arrival. Darrius did an awesome job and he was very patient with me (I didn't necessarily hide the fact that it was painful LOL)! He was fast, he was friendly, he explained to me how to care for my tattoo, his work is great, he was just simply phenomenal. Although my tattoo is currently only 2 days old, it's looking really good and I'm SO in LOVE. I'm definitely considering another tattoo with Darrius the next time I come to CT.
