"Recently got my first tattoo from Noize and he killed it. From design to execution it looks amazing. Super clean shop, easy to talk to and do business with, and most importantly awesome tattoos. Even checked in afterwards to see how it healed. I'll be back for more."

"I got my first tattoo here and it was an amazing experience! Noize and his apprentice Dave did a great job both helping me get the design I wanted and then helping talk me through the process. I was impressed with how quickly the tattoo took (2 hours once ink first hit my skin), the quality of my tattoo, and the conversations we had in the shop. I would definitely recommend The Ink Society in Jenison!"

"I just want to start off with saying these guys are awesome!! I booked my tattoo about a month ago with three different pictures as inspiration and noize wonderfully mixed them together into an incredible tattoo! Also this was my first tattoo and noize was awesome about checking in on how I was doing the whole time and offering plenty of breaks. He also was super cool about working with me about the idea of the tattoo, based off of what I sent him he thought I wanted just my forearm and then when I came in and said full arm and quickly re sketched the design and still knocked the whole thing out same day. With this being my first tattoo noize definitely set the bar pretty high for future experiences!!!"

"Noize was absolutely AMAZING and created the best piece ever. I got my tattoo in remembrance of my cousin who passed sway about a month and a half ago from Neuroblastoma. His favorite things were legos. I couldn’t have asked for a better piece! This was also my very first tattoo and I was extremely nervous but Noize walked me through everything and made me feel comfortable the whole entire time. Highly Highly Highly recommend going here and working with him!"

"From the friendliness you receive upon walking in the door, to the cleanliness, and attention to detail during the tattoo process, every single person in the building was the epitome of hospitality. Noize did a memorial tattoo for me for my best friend and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. If all of that wasn’t enough, they just started a podcast for recovering addicts. The love that truly pours from this shop is felt all the way from Oregon now and I couldn’t give higher regards or recommendations to the Ink Society."
