With over 24 years of experience, Cesar has worked with a vast amount of tattoo styles. With this, he discovered his love for black and grey realism. His works mostly with portraits, horror themed tattoos, and nature scene tattoos. Besides helping create the best tattoos in Fayetteville, North Carolina, he also works with mechanics, sculpting, rebuilding electronics, and multiple other hobbies.
Caring for your new tattoo is important to promoting a healthy and beautiful final product. The sun can be bad for your tattoo. Sunburns on tattoos can cause many problems. Please wait for your tattoo to heal completely before going into the sun or a tanning bed. Make sure to use a high quality sun block NOT sunscreen.

Made an appointment all the way from Nebraska and the staff was very professional and accommodating in order to find a time to fit me in. Very pleased with the quality of my tattoo done by Reagan. Would definitely recommend this service.

Excellent staff from the top down. Maya at the front desk is very professional, went out of her way to explain their process and the way they do things. She called me on the phone and spoke with me at length about my design style and helped me find an artist that best fit my desires. LouieG was awesome, super chill dude who took his time with my piece and really worked with me to create something special.

What a cool shop! Nice vibe and great atmosphere! Just wrapped up a birthday tattoo with Leo who was great to work with. He walked me thru the process, made great suggestions and created a great compass rose tattoo with a little color and Calico Jack. These guys are great! If you’re in the Fayetteville, NC area and looking for a tattoo check these guys and girls out, they’ll do you right!

This shop is amazing! Leo gave me the best arm/sleeve tattoo. His black and grey work is fantastic, I recommend him for any serious realism projects. The entire staff/shop is laidback but completely accommodating. I recommend this shop to anyone wanting a great tattooing experience

Flakiss did a wonderful job! I’m a shy person so I like to just read or watch a show while getting tattoo work done, and she didn’t make me feel awkward or uncomfortable at all. Her work was relatively quick but so high quality, and she was able to color match some previous shading I have on an already existing tattoo perfectly. Highly recommend her if you’re wanting a realistic floral design!

I want to give a major shout out to Cesar Morales for giving me the best tattoo I could have imagined! His attention to detail is what sets him apart from the pack. Cesar is very polite, professional and is an expert in the field of tattooing!! Cesar spent time making sure that the tattoo was designed perfectly and had proper placement on my arm. Cesar’s laid back persona, professionalism and proven talent put me at ease and I was able to sit back and relax because I knew I was in great hands. Words can’t express how impressed I am with the results. I highly recommend Cesar and Black Hive Ink

Black Hive Ink is amazing. Every piece of art I have seen customers leave with has been nothing short of being masterpieces. I used Louie G for my half sleeve and he did a fantastic job. Sat down and discussed my ideas and he translated them into a extremely detailed and beautiful piece of work. I'm not one to get tattoos very often, I waited 20 years to find the right person. Glad I patiently waited for Louie G. At the door the staff was courteous and professional. From the initial visit to completion Maya kept contact with me, even fitting me in when there was a cancellation. They kept their

In a word…WORLD-CLASS! The artists at this phenomenal studio (mine was Leo, and he’s a m.f. BEAST in the tattoo game) truly bring their A game. The price points are more than reasonable, the place is spotless (yes, even the restrooms), and even the reception/scheduling team are above-board. I was so blown away with my entire experience that I’m already booking another session! If you’re looking to get some sick ink from some bonafide professionals, look no further. Oh, and a special shout out to Maya. She hand-selects the artist to pair you up with, based upon what type of art you’re
