RISING DRAGON TATTOOS NYC

Rising Dragon Tattoos has worked in Manhattan since 1997 from a private second-floor studio, with a team of four artists who each have at least ten years of experience. The shop has been in business for over 30 years and keeps a clean space with handmade art. Custom work is central, covering Japanese art such as dragons, koi, hannya and cherry blossoms, along with Polynesian tribal, realism, traditional and neo-traditional, black and gray, color, cover-ups, fine line, sleeves and back pieces. A reviewer found one artist online because he does a lot of cover-ups. The studio welcomes LGBTQ clients and has a wheelchair accessible entrance and Wi-Fi. The shop also keeps pages on Japanese tattoo meanings. Rated 4.9 from 696 Google reviews, 658 of them five stars.
