Being new to the Oneonta area, I did my research and found Oculo Visitant Gallery. Went in and was able to chat about what I wanted and got it scheduled right away. Since, I’ve had a few sessions with Travis and have been nothing but thrilled with the process. Each session at the shop is relaxing and fun. Travis is a pleasure to work with and I am impressed by his work on my tattoo every session we have. He has turned my idea into a great piece of art. I’m excited to keep going back to Travis and to Oculo. The other artists there are insanely talented and friendly. I would recommend Oculo Visitant Gallery to everyone looking to get amazing work by some of the best talent in this area!
Shani is absolutely amazing! Very good work, very polite. Last time I went there it was pricy for a smaller tattoo, today it was so cheap and got a good sized one! Thank you Shani!!
I love my tattoo. They did a great job.
I was a walk in appointment and I was offered a spot that same day. I was not able to do it that day but I was then given an appointment the next day. The price quoted was very reasonable and when I arrived for my appointment a few minutes early, my artist, Shani, was already waiting for me. I was having the tattoo done on the top of my foot and she did such a awesome job! It came out beautiful! I would recommend this place and also going to see her!
I had a tattoo completed by Dan. He did an amazing job the art is beautiful. I enjoyed my experience working with Dan. When I met him for the consultation he was very professional and knowledgeable. I like how he designed the tattoo with the mindset of longevity and traditional ideals. Overall a 5 star experience! I’m looking forward to get another tattoo by Dan in the future.Thanks!
The best tattoo experience I have ever had!
Called to see if they had openings, they told me to walk in, and I got seated almost right away! Super clean, super friendly, and pretty quick. Travis was awesome and made quick work of the piece on my ribs. Made good conversation too, which helps distract from the pain... Only cost $150 for a piece spanning most of my ribs, and I couldnt ask for better quality.
Great place. Really looking forward to getting my tattoo done.
I’ve been getting tattooed here since 2016 and I’ve always had a wonderful experience. All of the artists take their time to get to know you and make you feel incredibly comfortable during the tattoo. The shop is incredibly clean and any questions you have about the tattooing process, they will answer without hesitation. Unfortunately I have moved from the area but will always put a trip to OVG on my to-do list when I’m back in town!!
Great staff. Dan took a example of a tattoo that I wanted and made it happen. The tattoo is better than I imagined. Thank you Dan and every one else at Oculo.
Came to Oneonta for a walk in tattoo, the studio had time and was so happy to do it for me. I have a mild form Adhd so sometimes I move because my brain is going a mile a minute. The tattoo artist simply asked if i was okay and reminded me to just relax it was a really good way to handle it. I would totally recommend a tattoo for this studio!
Professional and very talented. This place is THE go to spot for all your tattoos in Oneonta. Always sterile, clean, and thorough. Also, Dan is the man
This is a super place to get a tattoo. Very friendly, talented and knowledgeable staff. I have loved every single tattoo Ive gotten here (8 from Xanthian, 2 from Dan and 1 from travis) and will continue to send anyone looking for a tattoo their way!
I’ve had 4 tattoos done at Ocula and each one is amazing!! I would never go anywhere else! Prices are fantastic- artists are ridiculously talented and friendly... !!!!
Went here for my first tattoo and it was perfect. My specific artist was really friendly and did a great job!
I’ve been a few different places to be tattooed and Oculo is by far the best one I’ve been to and the one I most recommend to anyone. The environment is clean and the staff is extremely friendly. So far Xanthian has done all of my work and always goes above and beyond what I could expect. If you’re looking for a place to go, this is definitely the one.
Got my second and third tattoo at the same time. They have great price system and I love the environment
The artists were super nice and the shop was very, very clean! I got my first tattoo and I can’t wait to go back !!
Xanthian did my tattoo. She did exactly what I was imagining and was just as excited as I was about it. Would definitely go again.
Nice clean shop. Artist was very friendly, made sure we were comfortable and informed. Didnt hesitate to answer all our questions. Clean organized station. Does nice work. The guy that greeted us at the front desk could work on his customer/social skills, not very friendly. Overall, I would recommend shop.
Beautiful work by talented artists.
I just got another tattoo done today. Every time the service was excellent and the staff was kind. When it comes to tattoos I would highly recommend going here. Their cleanliness and knowledge is bar none.Ive seen work by many of the artists and all are highly skilled. A special thanks to Dan for exceptional tattoo work. He is seriously a skilled tattoo artist.I look forward to my next visit. Thanks Dan.
GREAT LOOKING bUT very rude
From the first contact, by email with Jan, to the consultation with Craig and Travis, to the actual tattoo by Travis...all 5 Star. Very clean, very personal, great music playing in the background. (Not to loud...just perfect.). Since it was my first tattoo, Travis was great about explaining everything in detail for me. By the time he started, I was very relaxed. My tattoo was inside the wrist...and it didnt hurt at all. After Travis finished, he explained in detail how to care and clean the tattoo. While there they were doing much more detailed tattoos then mine, so if you need an experienced talented tattoo artist, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended.
They couldnt do the style tat we wanted but I give huge props to the artist. He turned us away because he didnt want to give us a piece we wouldnt be happy with, acknowledging his own lack of ability in the genre.
Amazing shop and amazing staff! Gene is a master at his skill and trade. He did a perfect double nostril piercing on me and I couldnt be more happy. He was recommended to me by my first piercer who moved out of area and I drive over an hour to see Gene and its more than worth the drive!
It was my daughters and my first time getting a tattoo. Our tattoos came out fantastic! I will go back again. Very clean atmosphere, I watched how they prepped their areas before and after each customer. Our artists name was Xanthia Moon.
I visited today and received my first tattoo, the artists were all very kind but especially Xanthian! She truly took her time to explain everything to me. Very clean and sterile facility. Would highly recommend them to any of my friends or family looking to get a tattoo done. I absolutely love my tattoo!
SAVE YOUR SKIN GO SOMEWHERE ELSE WITH YOUR MONEY!Craig Rodriguez was supposed to be my artist, 2 weeks after putting my deposit down haven’t heard from him finally gave me call resounding in him telling me he’s gonna bash my head in the street and to bring my mom and father so he can fight them to as well as my boss,All because I wanted to know what was going on.. as a paying customer getting a 600-1200 tattoo I was treated with so much unprofessionalism and rudeness I would not recommend this artists to anyone!Does not know how to treat people!SAVE YOUR SKIN GO SOMEWHERE ELSE WITH YOUR MONEY!EDIT !reply to the owner!I see none of these are about Craig?I went to your shop for the good reviews and Brian.. whom recommend Craig who did say all that messed up stuff to me on the phone and I will keep telling people about it because it happened and it was unprofessional bottom line.... when I went in a week after not hearing anything I was in no way rude to any employee defiantly not a customer I work two jobs and know how to treat people you lost that customer and me because of your unprofessional staff and they were lucky to not have invested time and money with you like I had.
Excellent work. Excellent music. Great tattoo artists. If you have any questions they are really easy to talk to about any concerns that you have.
Very happy with the tattoo I got here. The staff was awesome. The place was very clean. I love how the tattoo guns are digital now so I was only charged for the time the needle was moving.
Travis did an amazing job fixing an old tat (he didnt do the original) that wasnt right from the start. Its beautiful now!
Love this place! Everyone is so friendly and they do excellent work. Definitely going back again!
We took our daughter here today to get her nose pierced, and we couldnt have asked for a better experience. Friendly, professional staff and a beautifully decorated, immaculate space. Thank you so much, shes very happy!
Ive been to this shop for both piercings and tattoos, and I must say, this shop really nails it in their customer service and work. The piercer was very informative about the piercing I went in to get. Their pricing was fantastic, and their custom jewelry is simply gorgeous and high quality. Im allergic to most metals, so it was refreshing to see that they had good quality gold and silver jewelry that was decorative as well. The tattoo artists are incredibly talented, and were as excited about my tattoo as I was. Ive had multiple tattoo sessions there, and the artist was sure to make sure that I was comfortable throughout my sessions, which werent short by any means. They have a great tattoo team that are skilled at doing multiple tattoo styles from traditional Japanese styles, to traditional American styles, realism, portraits and even the more whimsical styles. Every time I have gone to this shop I have been met with professionalism and great quality work. I would recommend this shop to anyone who is tired of having to get coverups due to unsatisfactory work at other shops.
Clean, Professional, Modern and Experiened. They carry and can order Custom Fine Jewelry. Cool Art and People to go and look at. Go here first! (They accept cash and cards! Dont forget your ID!)
I had my first tattoo in 22 years done today. Travis was great to work with and I was very happy with the result. I will definitely be back for more and will recommend to friends.
Great experience!! I would recommend this place to anyone that wants a piercing. Gene is great, he pierced my nose it was quick, easy and Painless!! Love my new piercing!
Exceptionally clean shop, friendly staff and artists, and incredible work. They walked me through each step of the tattoo process, gave great advice, and made sure I was happy. Cant recommend this shop more highly.
So about a month or so ago we called to make an appointment for a very nice Japanese dragon and such and our artist went in vacation. Not a big deal but then we weren’t notified of this, the shop still took our deposit even though there were no plans to have this tattoo drawn up or have actual contact with our tattoo artist. Then about a month of not hearing anything out artist CRIAG calls us and threatens us to beat us up and our bosses and family? Very unprofessional and then proceeds to keep taking down our reviews because they don’t want to people to see how unprofessional CRIAG is. I have nothing against the actual shop or the other artist I just find it extremely inappropriate to be harassed from an artist when there was clearly a miscommunication.
Really great atmosphere and artists! They are friendly and talented. You will definitely get what you pay for!
Dan is a master at what he does!
A special and elegant body piecing shop. Beautiful decor, beautiful people, beautiful jewelry and super super clean!
I cant rave about this place enough!!!! Im stoked about the peircing I got done and the dude that did it was AMAZING... If I could give 10 stars I would... I know where Ill be going to get my next tattoo!! A Stellar place to go!!! You guys/Gal ROCK!!!!
Fantastic place and the best artists. The only place Ill go now.
Best piercing experience I have ever had, healed fast.
Overwhelming kindness. Walkins welcome. Talented and confident in his trade, Travis did amazing work.
Pretty cool place. Good work
So far I been tattooed by Dan and Travis both are clean and professional! I will be back for many more ....Richie Rich
Had my first tattoo ever done here, and the experience was amazing. Great vibe, extremely clean from what I can tell, and great art! Will definitely be getting another soon. Shout out to Brian it was a few months ago but he did my sons name with a flor de lis under it and it came out great, love it. Would reccomend going here to anyone.
Beautiful shop and great work!! Thank you for fixing my tattoo by Jess at Indelible!! You guys rock!!
Very friendly, professional and talented crew. Super happy with my choice of shops and couldnt be more stoked about my awesome tattoo(done by Aaron Wyckoff).
Knowledgeable artists, top concern is quality work, clean shop, high quality jewelry
