Hive Tattoo Collective is the cleanest and most welcoming tattoo shop I've ever been in. They are super nice and knowledgeable. Everyone I spoke to was really cool and down to earth...

JesuSandals

Place is amazing. Friendly staff. Very professional. I can't give this place enough praise. From the people who book the schedules to the artists themselves, they make you feel at home... I definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a new tattoo or piercing, and to anyone who's getting their first.

Catherine Burns

This was my first tattoo experience and it exceeded my expectations. The place was very clean, had a modern and edgy style, and the staff was incredibly nice and welcoming. My tattoo artist, Tina, was fantastic. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and we had great conversations while getting the tattoo done. I definitely recommend this place and will go here again for future tattoos.

I had the best experience here, from start to finish! When I called to make an appointment Jess answered the phone, she was extremely helpful and kind. Zach G was my artist and he was the best! It being my first tattoo, I was a little nervous, but Zach made sure to inform me about the entire process and tattoo aftercare. He did a beautiful job on my tattoo and I’m so happy with it! Definitely will be back in the future!

I got a tattoo on my forearm from my artist Brian Keith. The piece was pretty large and detailed. The work was amazing, I love it. The level of detail is insane and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. All the staff is friendly and knowledgeable and scheduling was easy. I understand why this shop is so highly recommended. For sure returning for future tattoos.

Dom is an AMAZING piercer!! She is compassionate and thorough, making sure you are happy with the service. Piercing was quick and painless. Large selection of navel jewelry to choose from. Very modern looking establishment and very clean!

Samantha Morgan

I have two other tattoos so this isn’t my first time but it’s my first time at HIVE and I’m never going anywhere else again. The vibe of the shop is off the charts amazing. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. Tina was my artist and she talked me through everything and is a wonderful artist! She did a phenomenal job. My tattoo healed beautifully and I’m so happy with it!! * said in the voice of the terminator * I’ll be back!!!

Kate Strange

I moved to Cinci back in February and as we all know it can be incredibly difficult to find a new piercer and tattoo artist that you trust. Well I was referred to Hive Collective Tattoos by a coworker. I walk in and the place has amazing energy, very clean, and very nice people working the desk! The experience was the best and I cannot wait to get done by them in the future. Thank you guys for being amazing

Heather C.

This shop is gorgeous! Very clean, sleek design inside, the friendliest staff ever, and such a streamlined check in process. The music selection is also top notch. I definitely recommend this shop - each artist has their own style and vibe and for my piece, Tina Petrullo was the perfect fit. Highly recommend her! She brought my grandma’s handwriting to life on my skin.

Nicole Boller

I appreciate the entire staff today. It was our daughter's first tattoo and they made her feel safe and were so great with her… amazing work and we couldn't be more pleased. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back!!! The establishment is gorgeous and extremely clean! Thank you so much for today

Sarah Kidd

A very clean, updated place to get a tattoo or piercing. This was my first trip there (I've had a lot of art done and have been to a few places) and I will be going there for more in the future. The people there are all really nice and welcoming. Zach did some flowers on my arm, and he made it a great experience. THE DETAILS...!! He does great work! I plan to go back to him for more. So yes... I HIGHLY recommend going to Hive. ❤️‍🔥

Dominique Alexandria

This is by far the best piercing/tattoo shop I’ve been to. The owners put so much care and effort into the overall look of the shop as well as being top of line with jewelry and tattoos. All of the artists are incredibly friendly and professional. It’s great work and a great experience, definitely makes me want to come back for all of my work.

Cody Foster

I recently found out Hive opened up and, living close, decided to pop by to see about getting something small done. My girlfriend and I saw their artists and work on Instagram and we were both definitely impressed. When I got there I noticed that Hive was one of the nicest and cleanest shops I've been to. Everyone was incredibly welcoming and Zach was more than willing to take on the small Demon Slayer piece I decided to get. He did a killer job and I will DEFINITELY be coming back for more pieces from him!

Kim Kleier

Everything about my experience at Hive was amazing! The woman at the front desk was very welcoming and friendly. The shop is extremely clean, sanitary and serious about all of the covid regulations. The ambiance is very cool and you can see all the hard work they put into the place! Highly recommend you check this place out for your next tattoo or piercing!

Tracy Edwards

Studio is immaculate, you could eat a donut off the floor it’s so clean. Once you walk in you feel connected to the staff. Great place and great work!

Cindy Walton

A-Mazing! Will be the ONLY place I go for Tattoos. Staff is friendly and artists are completely in tune with customer desires. Beautiful establishment, fresh & clean!
