Our Tattoo and Piercing Services in Toronto

Custom Tattoos

When you’re looking for a high-quality tattoo and an enjoyable experience in Toronto, Black Line Studio is the place to go. Get your ink done by one of our professional tattoo artists and turn your body into a work of art in the most sophisticated environment. Deciding on a design for your tattoo idea? Our Toronto custom tattoo artists are there to make your ideas a reality. With colour options ranging from shades of grey to the pastels of your choice, we’ll have what you like.

Tattoo Cover-Ups

Cover-ups are a fantastically creative way to breathe new life into old tattoos in Toronto. Some people opt to simply remold an old design into a more updated/better version of the piece, while others prefer to completely block out any evidence of the old tattoo. If the regret is strong, people usually go with the second option. Whatever your choice, our tattoo artists will help you find the best solution.

Tattoo Removal

Toronto Black Line Studio’s professional laser tattoo removal technicians offer the process of removing embedded ink from the layers of skin using the highest quality laser. Lasers work by producing short pulses of intense light that selectively target the tattoo pigment while minimizing damage to the surrounding skin to leave you with the natural beautiful skin you started with. If you have questions about laser tattoo removal, just ask. We’re happy to tell you whatever you want to know.

Body Piercing

Black Line Studio offers an extensive range of piercings including traditional, surface, and transdermal. We only carry the highest grade of LVM surgical steel, titanium, 14K solid gold and bioplast to ensure a safe and high-quality piercing. Please tell us where you want the piercing and our artists will make recommendations for the jewelry design and style. Remember that our privacy policy ensures confidentiality always. Best prices for nose piercing and ear piercing in Toronto! You’ll also get the best in care too!

Temporary Tattoos

Want the look of a real tattoo without the permanence? Airbrushed tattoos are the leader of the temporary tattoo world, offering the most realistic appearance for any temporary tattoo. This approach is ideal for anything who thinks they might want a permanent tattoo, but would like to try something temporary first.

Body Art

Body art has been around for centuries as form of art and expression. From cultural events, parades, costume events, and music festivals to even supporting sports teams, protests or advertising – there are plenty of excuses to transform the human body into a work of art. We’ll guide you through your first round to get you started, from choosing a design to selecting ink colours that you love. Whether you want 1 or 100 in the future, we’ll be there for you.

"Hollywood" carbon peel

Often referred to as the “Hollywood facial,” the Spectra™ carbon facial peel is a revolutionary laser treatment which delivers the benefits of aggressive skin rejuvenation procedures instantly, without the discomfort or downtime typically associated with such treatments. The Spectra™ carbon facial peel allows you to save time and money while still reaping the same results.

Acne Scar Removal

The procedure performed utilizing the Spectra laser is called a peel. During a peel, a client will undergo several passes of the Spectra laser, which omits quick pulses of intense light. These pulses of light target the melanin in the skin, breaking them up for the body’s natural processes to flush out. During the process, the laser heats up the skin, causing it to contract and stimulate the production of collagen.

Had a phenomenal tattoo done here. The service was good and the tattoo artist truly cared. A really cool vibe in the place too- you feel like you're in a boutique business unlike mass tattoo producing places like Adrenaline or New Tribe. I would go back!

Lola A.

Honestly a great experience. I came in with an idea, and left with a beautiful work of art on my back. It was super important to me because it was a tattoo to honor my parents, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Daniel was the artist and listened to every comment I made and offered suggestions. Would recommend!!

Liz A.

Black Line is by far my favorite place to get cool jewelry for my piercings! Every piece is a unique work of art. Definitely recommend to go check it out!

Tina W.

I have been blessed to find this place! After suffering from acne scars for whole life, I am now a new person in and out. Recommended 100%.

Lina S.

I had sent an email to Black Line Studio and got a call back the same day and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating and was able to fit me in the next morning! Great work, friendly service, clean shop, the price was bang-on.

What To Expect When You Choose Black Line Studio in Toronto

A Clean and Safe Environment

Ever been in a tattoo shop and wondered about hygiene? That’s not something you have to think about when you visit one of our Toronto shops. We place a high premium on providing a clean and sterile setting for our clients. We address everything from basic cleaning to ensuring that we use the highest quality equipment also. Trust that the team at Black Line Studio takes your care and your comfort seriously.

Supportive Staff

Some Toronto tattoo shops will hire anyone. We don’t do things that way. When you decide to come to us, you’re getting the top tier in customer support. That begins when you walk through the door. From a friendly greeting to discussing what you would like, our staff is trained to help. Whether you already have a design in mind or need help checking the designs we post on Instagram or have in the shop, tell us the name and we’ll find it for you. If you’re not interested in one of our designs, we’ll ensure you see a Toronto artist who can help the vision in your head become reality.

Experienced and Talented Artists

Just as we’re one of the Toronto tattoo shops that place emphasis on customer support, we also only have the best artists on hand. Whether you walk in on a whim or schedule an appointment, our team is happy to help you find something that’s just right. That includes customizing one of our Instagram designs or creating a sketch of a design that you have in mind. One way or the other, our Toronto artists will make sure the design becomes what you like before we get started.

Answers to Your Questions

Since it’s your first time with us for getting body art or jewelry, there’s bound to be questions. We’ll be happy to discuss all of those with you. From what area to choose for a piercing or tattoo to the type of jewelry that fits your lifestyle best, our team is ready to help. You can look all over Yonge Street to find more dedicated Toronto tattoo artists or piercing professionals, but it’s only at Black Line Studio where you will get the personalized attention that we offer.

Only The Best Jewelry

You’re read that selecting body jewelry can be difficult. We don’t think that’s true. It is important to know what type of jewelry is right for you. That includes choosing materials that will not irritate or lead to infections. Along with making sure your tattoo needs are met, we’ll help you make wise choices about your jewelry. You’ll find that our team is well-versed in just about any type of material used for all kinds of body jewelry.

And The Best Skin Care Products

After you get your tattoo or piercing in Toronto, we don’t consider the work done. We’ll go over how to care for the skin properly. To that end, our team provides suggestions for how to nourish the skin and prevent any type of irritation from developing. You’ll also find skin care products in our shops that are top of the line.

Don’t Forget Aftercare

Many Toronto tattoo shops are happy to provide piercings and tattoos, then leave customers to take things from there. We highly recommend aftercare and offer that type of support. It’s not just about skin products. We also help with things like new ink, adapting older tattoos if you like, checking the health of piercings, and in general making sure you always have the best support before, during, and after receiving one of our services. Check our Instagram account to learn more about what forms of care we provide to our clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Generally, a tattoo takes anywhere between 2-4 weeks to heal properly. It is important to follow your artist's aftercare instructions while healing your tattoo, and to keep the area moisturized and clean.

The cost of tattoos varies greatly depending on the size, complexity, and style of your tattoo. Generally, tattoos can range anywhere from $50 to $1000 or more.

The amount of money you should tip your tattoo artist is ultimately up to you, but most people generally tip between 15-20% of the total cost of the tattoo.

The legal age for getting a tattoo in Ontario is 18 years old.

Anyone who is not of legal age, is currently pregnant, or has certain medical conditions should not get a tattoo. If you’re unsure whether or not getting a tattoo is safe for you, consult your artist for answers.

Yes, tattoos do hurt. The level of pain from a tattoo varies from person to person, and depends primarily on the location of the tattoo, the size of the needle, and the type of ink used.

Before getting a new tattoo, there are a number of steps you can take to help you feel more prepared. Some of these steps include:

Make sure to read customer reviews and look at your artist’s portfolio ahead of time.
Schedule an appointment and bring reference materials, such as photos or sketches.
Eat a meal prior to your appointment to ensure you have the energy for the procedure.
Make sure your artist has a sterile environment, and that all equipment is being properly sanitized.
Wear comfortable clothing that will allow the artist access to the area you are getting tattooed.
Bring a friend or family member with you to the appointment for moral support.

No, tattoo ink does not stay in your blood. Once the ink has been injected into your skin, it stays in the dermis (the deeper layer of the skin), and does not enter the bloodstream.
