I have been going to Black Amethyst for almost 7 years now, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get a tattoo. J is the best and an amazing artist! I always receive compliments on his work and the colors. The shop is clean and decorated with amazing artwork. I highly recommend Black Amethyst for your tattoo needs. Always a great experience, and you’ll be coming back for more. Trust me.

Jay is such a great guy. A past co-worker did my tattoo and it was not exactly what I wanted. Jay had me come back and made it right. No charge!
I knew he would make it right and he killed it. I love it and I will be coming back for a touch up of another tattoo I have. Thank you so much Jay for taking time to fix it. It was cool chatting with you. I will be back.

If I could give more stars I would. I took my idea, and a picture of my frenchie, and Jeremy made it happen. Really appreciate the time he took to complete the artwork. This tattoo has great meaning, and he put the time and effort into it like it did to him too. Thank you, Jeremy.

This is a great shop if you’re looking for a skilled artist to do custom work. I was lucky enough to work with Dimitri to come up with a sleeve design and I couldn’t be happier. All of the artists are great and do incredible work and you won’t be disappointed if you choose to come here for your tattoo!

I highly recommend Black Amethyst Tattoo Gallery! I have been getting tattooed here for years by J. Michael. He’s done all my work and I refuse to go anywhere else. J. Michael’s line work, shading, and drawings are like none other. He takes his time to ensure straight lines and perfection. J. Michael is a color expert and always makes the design pop. This shop is very professional and personable, not to mention clean and well designed. If you’re looking for top notch work, I suggest you go to Black Amethyst. They are worth every penny!

I have been working with the owner J. Micheal for years now. My body is now adorned with several of his amazing art pieces. He is thorough, talented, helpful and fair. I have referred countless others to Black Amethyst and everyone who has gone has been impressed and grateful for my reccomendation.
The atmosphere in the shop is VERY different from what you might expect in a tattoo shop. It really feels more like a really hip art gallery. Clean, beautiful, and sexy. I feel at home when I walk through the doors.
If you are looking to support a local business for your next tattoo (or first tattoo) this is hands down the place to go.

Great atmosphere. J is a total professional. I’ve sat with him for at least 30 hours. He is delicate and dedicated to making your expression a reality. His color is incredibly vibrant! I’ve had people for years ask if recently had the color done. It always looks fresh!

I loved everything about our visit today. The shop is beautiful and filled with amazing paintings by the artists. The atmosphere is relaxing the staff is great. Our artist, Zack C was extraordinary, I had a piece done by him in NY and was so excited to see him when we came to Florida. We drove an hour and a half from where we are staying for our appointment and it was worth the flight and the drive. We will be back as soon as possible.

Great, clean, quality work, and professional which is exactly what you should be wanting in a tattoo shop. I recently had my old finger tattoos touched up/re worked before my wedding and had a transitional piece added on my middle finger to tie my hand piece into everything. Jay (owner) was very friendly and helpful with guiding while listening to my artistic wants. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
Mackenzie Hoskins
The best tattoo artist in St. Pete! Professional, clean, and creative, I wouldn’t go anywhere else. This piece is a work in progress cover up!

Jeremy Gullett
I had my first tattoo at the age of 79 last December. It was a small outline of my cat. I liked it but not everyone that looked at it knew what it was.
I wanted it colored and more defined Because it was a small job no one would call me back I spoke with the owners wife of this establishment and she said she thought her husband would do it for me. I went in the next day and he gave me the. beautiful cat i wanted.
It was s small job but he worked as hard on it as if it were a big job Jay is caring and loving and a wonderful artist The place is clean and the tattoo artists are extremely talented It was a wonderful experience for me.
