Unbelievable. Thatβs the only word I can use to express my experience with Milani. This was my first tattoo, I was super nervous but upon arrival was immediately put to ease with Milaniβs approach and experience. The design she created made me cry and couldnβt believe how she did this with only an email and examples of what I like. Sheβs earned a customer for life. If you are like me and nervous, unsure of who to chose for your first tat and have trust issues, shop no where but with Milani. Her manager Sean is also amazing and responsive for any questions and concerns you have throughout the process. Thanks again!

Milani is incredible! She really blew me and my friend away with her design for our tattoo. From the beginning, her assistant was so quick about answering our emails (i feel like its so hard to get a hold of a tattoo artist and actually get a response), answered all of our questions and gave us very clear instructions on what information Milani would require for our tattoos. We sent over references and a basic idea of what we were looking for and she did incredible! We are so happy with our tattoos and she is soo sweet and down to earth. Her studio is in a very clean office building and has such great decor! She even provided snacks and water! Milani made us feel super comfortable from the beginning to the end. Her linework and coloring is fantastic and clean. its so hard to find artists with such clean and crisp linework! She doesn't have a heavy hand and makes sure that you're doing okay during the process as well.
I highly recommend her!! 10/10!!!! Thank you so much, Milani!!!!

Milani is the REAL DEAL. I had an appointment with her today for a tattoo session and she was AMAZING. Professional, sweet, and extremely talented. She exceeded all my expectations in every possible way. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Milani to anyone looking for a great tattoo experience, and will return to her shop for my other tattoos! Thank you so much, Milani! You're a true artist! :)

I had been doing a search for tattoo artists for a while and came upon Milani by doing a simple google search and was blown away with her line work and the variety of tattoos she could do! I was able to book my appointment quickly and efficiently with no problems.
Sheβs very friendly and kind, the studio has good vibes and itβs very comfortable since the start. I went in blind with how the design was going to be and it was absolutely beautiful, she was able to do exactly what I wanted and I didnβt request for any changes.
Overall it was a very good experience and I will definitely be seeking her out in the future for my other tattoos!

I was scouting around tattoo artists for interest in a new tattoo and was wanting to do something more local to me since I was not really super keen about wanting to drive back to New York for a tattoo. In the end I came across Milani's studio after looking at her portfolio on instagram. After a bit of back and forth discussion about references and where I would want the tattoo, we agreed upon a time and place.
On the day of the appointment, I came to her studio and found that it was a private studio with just her working in it. It was clean, everything was professional and she was super nice to talk to about everything. We agreed on a design that she had set up for my upper arm half sleeve and set to get to it.
My first session was 5 hours long and I will be back to finish up the piece in the future. Once we were done, she gave me instructions on what to do with the piece and healing turned out pretty well for me.
Definitely recommend her to others who are interested in her work. She's super busy however so expect a long wait period if you plan to book with her.

Super clean and beautiful location. From the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out I felt nothing but comfortable. Mimi is truly an artist. I was speechless for my design. She really understood the assignment. She was so helpful and knowledgeable about the process of the tattoo and the after care. She even gave me snacks(: I 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for a devoted, passionate tattoo artist. I wish I could give her 10 stars!!

Milani did such an incredible job on my tattoo. Her work was so meticulous, that when I sent a picture to my buddy, he told me it looked like it was photoshopped onto my arm. Super friendly with a very clean studio, I can say this was the best tattoo experience I've ever had. Will absolutely go back to her for my next one!

I was referred to Milani by a good friend. I went to INKMI Studio with my first experience getting a tattoo. Not only are they professional they handled everything from start to finish with such detail Sean is amazing at communicating and getting your appointment set up. Milani has a customer for sure for future tattoos and many referrals from me. She is detailed and talented I loved my FIRST tattoo she is awesome!!!! I did not experience the pain I was expecting - very gentle- Detail oriented at perfectionist at heart and I can tell she loves what she does.

Milani did SUCH an amazing job with my tattoo! From the moment I walked in the door for my appointment, she made me felt at home and comfortable. Her studio is beautiful, clean, and full of great vibes. She was extremely patient with me as we refined the design, and printed the stencil out in five different sizes so I could look at each one and pick the right fit. She took the utmost care during the session, and my end result was AMAZING. This is definitely my new favorite tattoo, and I will be back no doubt.
