I wanted to get a Traditional Chinese Dragon for a long long time. I spoke to at least 20 different shops in NYC, if not more. Finally I decided to go with CJ. Since I wanted a full back tattoo, there is no room for a cover up correction in the future. I want the best of the best. CJ is definitely one of the best in the industry. My tattoo is about 60% done so far. It is over multiple sessions. Always satisfied when I left the shop. I still have a few session left and I can't wait to see him again.

Really wonderful experience for my first tattoo. They were extremely, extremely sanitary, clean, and safe considering the pandemic. Lots of hand sanitizer, masks all around, limited capacity. Felt safe. The tattoo experience was quick, easy, and they did exactly what I wanted. I could not be happier.

I went in to get my first piercing, while on vacation here, and was looking forward to because of the price point. It went by smoothly and was done quick . I noticed the stud on my nose was peaking out the whole time. The next day I noticed when looking for the piercing within my nose that I could not feel it whatsoever. She basically had "pierced" it but it never went though to the other side. So the stud was going inside my cartilage area instead of through my nose. I noticed by the time they had closed and was going to leave the state within a couple hours. I now have to go get it

Walked in after much research of the artist I was looking for. I knew cj was the one I needed to do my hand and lower arm sleeve. His style and the details was perfect. Went in and made the appt for a few months later cause he was so booked. But I've never been more satisfied with a tattoo than his work.( And I have quite alot of tattoos lolz) I highly highly recommend him and would go back for future pieces. Also he has a new location in flushing which is huge and so dope.

I hate to be that person who doesn't get anything done and leaves a bad review so please take this with a grain of salt! This is a review of the service only.
I was looking for a tattoo shop that could work on my right arm. It has an empty spot I'd like to get filled in and found CJ tattoo. I walked in at 2pm on a Tuesday hoping for a consultation (and totally ready to leave a deposit) and there was a man laying on the couch who was named, Jin. I asked him about another tattooist and he had no clue what his schedule was. He told me to try and just "come back tomorrow".

This is my first time for tattoo. CJ made it for me. It's my first ever pet, a guinea pig. And It's my new stage of life. I feel very grateful for CJ's responsibility, nice communication, and hard work. He is kinda a silent and dedicated man with warm smile. During the work, I chatted with my friends and knew two are looking for a tattoo artist. I immediately recommended CJ TATTOO.

I'm obsessed with my tattoo from here (a slice of cake on my butt cheek but I will not post a photo of my butt online). The artists are so clean with their lines and did not rush at all with the process. I took 3 of my friends here as well and it was very clean, hygiene wise, as a studio as well. It's beautiful and a great atmosphere to get your tattoo done and you can tell these people are passionate and smart and amazing at what they do.

I came here late on a Friday night about 2 weeks ago to inquire more about some of the availability of work I wanted to get done. When I got in, I was politely greeted and asked what I needed to ask, not knowing that they were actually closing up for the night! (It was about 9pm-ish, maybe later).
I wanted something small done, and they told me they would still be able to take me despite them closing up shop. Ling was my artist and she was extremely patient with me. Originally, the small piece was a "test" piece since it was simple, and she was really patient and took her time, again

I was looking for a good spot to get traditional Chinese tattoos as this was my first tattoo and I was nervous. So glad to come across this place since they are from China and know how to work with Chinese characters. They were super attentive and helped me figure out a spot for the placement. I even chatted in Mandarin with the tattoo artist as she was doing her work. Definitely recommend this place.

CJ is super amazing, very professional tattoo artist. I went for my first session today and honestly his work is great and I can't wait to see the finished product after session two. It has taken me such a long time to find a great asian style tattoo artist and after searching long and hard with the thanks to yelp and his Instagram, I have finally made it. He surely didn't disappoint and took his time on my tattoo with detail and care. This is my first color tattoo and the detail in designing is. Plain exquisite. Every step is the way he and his team made sure I was comfortable and if
