Luv this place. Stan has done 7 out of 7 tats. Being a diabetic Iβm very careful who, what & where I go & do. Iβm treated like fam every time. Even got couple of piercings n cartilage & lobe. Respect is key & they give it always. π

These are some really nice ppl. Ms. Candy was extremely sweet and talked to me the whole time through my piercing I would pick them any day over any other tattoo parlor here in Albany

Pretty good and very sanitized, I went there for a nose piercing and the nose piercing was a success! Price is $40 and yes they take credit/debit cards as well. It wasn't painful, only a tear drop came out of my eye. Get your piercing today! I definitely recommend.

Y'all, I pulled up at 6:50pm. I'm about to be driving home with a NEW NAVEL PIERCING and it's 7:10pm now. They are ON POINT in here!!
Candy was my "piercer" (I'm sorry if that was the wrong terminology) and she was caring, kind, efficient, and effectively got me in and out in no time.
I'm 1000% coming back to see Stuart for my next tattoo here very soon. Maybe even tomorrow....
11/10 definitely recommend

Google reviews are very important for others to learn about othersβ experiences. These reviews allow us to decide if we want to go to the business and spend money or not.
Letβs face it β customer feedback is very important to any business.
I would like to share my experience with Think Ink in Albany, GA.
My first visit was Saturday August 15, 2020. I will not share artist name, because I do have respect for the artist and the artist trying to make a living. However, I did feel the need to share this experience with potential future clients. I requested a spine tattoo with 6 words (very simple words/font) with a small cross above the words. The artist took time to design the tattoo as I requested. I do not care for the font now, but that was not the artist fault. Although, the artist could have suggested something better maybe, for that particular location and lettering in my opinion. I should have gotten much thinner font.
CHARGED:
I was charged $200 for less than 30 minutes (if that) of tattooing.
Afterwards, I noticed one of the words did not appear to be as clear as I had wanted. I returned a few days later, and the artist fixed the word to read more clearly as I asked. The artist was more than happy to accommodate my request.
Fast forward, I got another tattoo over the weekend Saturday November 28, 2020. The artist (tattoo shop), is located about 2-2.5 hours from Albany in Middle Georgia. This artist charged a set rate ($120 per hour). He spent about 1 hour and 15 minutes on my tattoo and charged me $150.
This tattoo was much more detailed and took more time.
I was so hurt to learn how Think Ink ripped me off.
I donβt want to regret any tattoos, but the one I got from Think Ink is the one that I wish that I had waited to let another artist do. I did not know about this shop in Middle Georgia until a few weeks ago.
I was shocked to learn how much Think Ink over charged me for the amount of time and work NOT put into that tattoo.
A professional tattoo artist/shop outlines set rates and prices so the customers KNOW what to expect for any tattoo that day or in the future. Next time, I wonβt go in and sit for 30 minutes and be charged $200, because the artist just decided to charge that for that day.
I know exactly how much my tattoo will cost based on a reasonable rate.
This tattoo artist is very well known in middle Georgia, but I will not write names in this review, but I wish others could see his great work.
I will recommend this artist and shop in Middle Georgia to everyone.
Overall, Think Ink is not a bad tattoo shop, but I think the integrity of overpricing is a little unprofessional and frankly taking advantage of clients. I do not want to return, visit, or recommend a tattoo shop like that.
Pros:
Very friendly
Inviting atmosphere
Clean shop
Responds quickly with questions and concerns
Will make sure the design is what you what
Cons:
OVERLY PRICE (too expensive for the amount of time spent tattooing).
I was charged $200 for less than 30 minutes of tattooing for 6 simple words. (Would you like or want that?)
PRICE is not set like many other places (i.e. hourly), so the artist simply throws out a quote or price for that day, which I find so unprofessional.
Overall:
I will not return learning how much I was ripped off after getting another tattoo with more detail that took 1 hour and 15 minutes and was charged $150.
I was charged $200 at Think Ink for less than 30 minutes with absolutely no detail.
I think the artist ability is fine, and they try to help you get what you want, but to overcharge a client for this amount of time and work is ridiculous.
I do not recommend unless you have priced other places or just want a certain tattoo artist.
You will more than likely be disappointed like I was.
However, if you decide to visit them, I certainly hope you get a better tattoo that is not overpriced βor- feel ripped off like I did.
