Yi wu designed my tattoo for me and I love it! He is a very talented artist and is dedicated to his work. The shop is bright and clean and the atmosphere is very laid back which I really enjoyed. The staff are very kind and friendly aswell. I highly recommend getting tatted here! I will definitely be coming back!

I absolutely love this place. The place itself is amazing on its own. It's a very chill environment and you feel right at home the second you walk through the door. The people who work they're are all so funny and making you laugh all the time. They interact with their customers and that makes going there so great. I recently had a tattoo done by Francis. He is so great. Hes very nice and make sure that you know exactly what you want. Hes a little bit of a perfectionist, so even if he thinks the image is the slightest bit crooked before he tattoos you, he will fix it. I think its a great trait to have in this kind of work. I love love love love my new tattoo and i couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. Francis is very gentle and encourages you and tells you that you're doing great even though you could be in the worst pain you could ever imagine. Its all worth it in the end. Out of all of my tattoos, this one is my favorite. Overall, i had the best experience there and i highly recommend everyone to go there. I for one, will be going there to get many more tattoos i have already planned out. Thank you to everyone at playhouse and a special thanks to Francis :)

I’ve been planning new ink for many years. I reached out to Francis during the covid lockdown after I saw his amazing work on the Playhouse website. He was immediately responsive on IG and we struck up a conversation about the process once things open up again. I finally got my appointment yesterday, after being able to consult with Francis a few times as we worked and tweaked the design together. He made me feel at ease and was easy to work with and patient. Taking time to prepare was so important to get it just right. I did not feel rushed at all and it was an environment that felt safe and clean. Contact tracing, temperature checks - proper safeguards in place. My design needed around 2 hours of needle time. Francis was super professional and made the experience comfortable. He is a true artist. I look forward to my next piece. Thank you Francis! I will see you again soon.

Marianne

The best tattoo parlour I've gone to thus far. The place is so chill and the staff are just so welcoming. Yi's not only an amazing artist but he's a really down to earth guy. Very happy and satisfied with my piece! Thanks again Yi! You da best!

Judith Apong

Everyone in the shop was extremely welcoming and the shop was very clean. Ami did my tattoo and I’m so in love with it. I was nervous because I got it on my ribs but she made me feel comfortable and was super sweet. The design came out beautifully! She is sooo talented, I will definitely go back. Highly recommend.

Kira Taylor

I got my tattoo from Leah at Playhouse and it was the best experience I've had. She was very professional and allowed me time to debate and change ideas for my tattoo before deciding on the final result. She went onto Photoshop and helped me turn my idea into a reality. I went through the appointment process on the website and it was quite easy to set up my appointment. The shop itself is small but very clean and the staff are all friendly. It was especially nice that Leah let me talk her ear off while she was tattooing since I was nervous. The use of the tattoo bandage during aftercare is a lifesaver, and my aftercare process has been stress-free. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a quality tattoo.

Bronze Life Bullies

Would not recommend this place. They took me as a walk in as I was looking for two 1.5” x 1.5” tattoos done on my wrist. Ended up being charged $550. Completely insane. Can I rate lower than one star ? No ? Damn.

Dara Andino

I’ve been going to Yi for my past couple pieces, even before he opened up shop. Always have a good time in the shop, great atmosphere and ambience. Always amazed by Yi’s development as an artist, makes me excited every time I book a new appointment. He’s very chill and works quick and gently, 200% recommend ???????? Very pleased to get tattoos of this quality workout having to go downtown Toronto

Aaron Chandra

Was referred from a friend (who was referred from another friend, who knows a guy, who knows a guys cousin..etc) and I can see why. Shop is stacked with super talented artists, all very friendly. These guys are so chill that they ordered pizza and shared it with us and even offered seconds and thirds lol. What other shop would go out of their way to do that?!? Personally saw Vince - very talented artist, chill dude and overall a true professional. Highly recommend!

Victoria Ishaq

I've had two tattoos done here and every single time I walk into this place they make me feel comfortable in every way they possibly can. The atmosphere is incredible, the work is beautiful and everyone here is so friendly. I don't think I'll ever want to go to another place in my entire life. I got my tattoo done by Matthew and he really does know what he's doling. I highly recommend that you check out his Instagram (@matthew.playhouse) if you're thinking of getting a tattoo from here. He is incredible and it's definitely worth the price.

Josh_Dsz

Playhouse is one of the best tattoo studios I have ever been to. Francis was amazing. He took the time to go through various fonts with me and I am so happy with the finished tattoo. The whole experience from when you walk in to when you walk out was amazing. I will definitely be going back for more tattoos in the future. If you're looking to get a tattoo...check out Playhouse! You wont be disappointed!

Roland Piroutz

Not my first rodeo but my best by far! Great staff with incredible attention to detail and hygiene. Great experience Oliver!

Taylor Wettlaufer

I just received some tattoos from Ami and she's truly so talented! Her fine line work and attention to detail is superior and she's such a friendly soul. The studio was extremely clean with great vibes. Ami offers the best quality + value and I definitely will be back to see her for any future work!

Jennifer Spence

I was amazed by the art that hung on the walls and the artists hard at work in two of the many chairs Playhouse Tattoo Studio has to offer. I was quickly welcomed with a 'hello there' and was greeted by tattoo apprentice Adam. Having a small idea of what I wanted, Adam was very helpful in guiding me through the design process. He spent time with me sharing his ideas and together we came up with something truly unique for me. The artists are very friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming. I would highly suggest you check it out!

Aarti Mistry

I *highly* recommend this place. The artists at Playhouse are very friendly, enthusiastic and patient! I wanted a very personal and detailed tattoo done in terms of accurate measurements and Leah ensured the entire piece was exactly the way I designed it prior to getting it inked on my skin. Most importantly, the space is really clean and of course welcoming! Thank you once again and I'll definitely be back sometime in the future!!

Adrian Schieren

I loved my experience at Playhouse! I got my first tattoo here with Wookjin and couldn't have been happier! Their artists are very talented and they have a very clean shop with a cool atmosphere. I would recommend this shop to anyone!

Linda L

This was my very first tattoo with Matthew Tran. I was in Canada on vacation and decided to book an appointment with him. I’m so glad I was able to get my first piece done by him. I even came back for a second session and drove 9 hours, it was worth the drive! Everyone kept telling me why go back to Canada for the second session there’s other artists here in the states?! I was blown away by his artwork and for something so permanent I wanted it to be done right the first time around and let me tell you he definitely did not disappoint. He was amazing, very patient, detailed, and kind. I really loved the shops atmosphere and vibe. Very chill, relaxed, and the artists were very friendly and funny. I would most definitely come back and highly recommend others! Thank you Matthew for this amazing piece, we will definitely see each other again for many more to come! ????

Snoozy Montana

Matthew is the best, we are working on my back piece right now. He is super detailed oriented and nice and his work is amazing. Super professional every time he works on my tattoo. Great communication every time I have to reschedule and throughout the healing process, vibe of the shop is cool and all the artist and staff are super nice with encouraging words to help you through the sessions. Would recommend playhouse in a heartbeat

Alexis L

In the past year and half, my mom and I have gotten two tattoos done at playhouse. One by Yi and the other by Matthew. We honestly love it here! Everyone is so welcoming and the artists are so patient – which I really appreciate since I’m very indecisive. We also have gotten many compliments on our tattoos – the work is so clean and nicely done. My friends also came here for their tatts and all turned out amazing. It’s crazy how much they’ve grown in such a short period of time! I can’t wait to get another one done ????

Phillip Pereira

Ami did a beautiful job on my rib tattoo for my daughter. Overall great work and great person, I will definitely be getting my next done here.

John Salvattore

This place is amazing, I'm glad I found it, I was thinking for a long time where to get my tattoo, and I can truly say that Playhouse Tattoo Studio is the best by far, the lady in charge of the place received me very well, she asked me what kind of tattoo I wanted and suggested the artist for it, Francis, thank you very much bro, for the whole process, from the design to the tattoo itself was incredible, the time and dedication, listening to my opinions and giving me suggestions to have something that fascinates me. The atmosphere is incredible, comfortable, fun, sociable, and more, I know that very soon I will return for more tattoos, totally recommended, also, it was my first tattoo, so that made the experience even better.

Matthew Virgioni

Everyone made me so confident when getting my first tattoo. The environment of Playhouse is so chill and laid back it makes you really enjoy being there while your tattoo is being done. Ami Dave is an unbelievable artist.... the work she did blew my mind couldn't be happier with the outcome of the first 2 parts to my forearm sleeve and cant wait for her to finish. Very clean and safe environment

Saphera Peters

Amazing work done by Ami. Place was clean and everyone was really nice. All my tattoos this far have been from here! Definitely recommend.

Harlene Kundhal

Amazing staff and service. Everyone made me feel very comfortable. My tattoo artist Jordan took the time to get to know me and made sure my tattoo was perfect before getting started. Great atmosphere!

Alyssa Brik

I went to playhouse as walk-in yesterday and was treated wonderfully by the staff, and Francis did a fantastic job turning my ideas into tattoos. He was kind and understanding and wanted my tattoos to be perfect and to my utmost satisfaction. The atmosphere was inviting yet professional and i'm super happy with my decision to get tattooed here. The price was fair and the studio was clean and well-looked after! I recommend Playhouse for anyone interested in quality work!

Shivam Dubey

Playhouse provided an incredible experience for my first tattoo. The shop feels like home and the staff cultivated an atmosphere of comfortability. Ami Dave was who did my tattoo. She is an extremely talented artist and provided professional service, personalized consultation and design, and realistic fine line work. Would recommend Playhouse and Ami specifically for anyone looking to get a great quality tattoo at a fine establishment!

Reem Idris

Got a tattoo done by Madelyn, and I left super happy with the result, she delivered exactly what I wanted and more!!

Nitin Kattar

I initially contacted Chanelle a while back to get a tattoo done for my birthday. She was professional and very attentive when it came to the design and the idea of what I wanted. She eased me into the process; yet managing to keep my fear and nervousness at bay. We conversated over the course of my sit-in and realized we had a lot of shows in common; and thanks to her for redirecting my mind from the pain. Keep in mind that this is the first time getting a tattoo. Chanelle helped me pick an appropriate size for my wrist which was perfect. She's super talented and her work speaks for itself. Her work turned out amazing and I'm grateful for her to have worked on my piece.

Hersh Wazir

Francis & Vince tatted me and my entire family a few weeks back; they’re incredibly accommodating while still following all of their protocols. Mom started planning her next tattoo with Francis within moments of finishing her first. Love this place, can’t wait to go back!

Lambro Official

One of the best shops I've visited in the gta! Great experience with the staff friendly and helpful the tattoo I got from yiwuduan is unbelievable.!! Real good artist very detailed and walked me through the process! Get some work done @playhousetattoo and what's these guys bring your dreams to life

Justice Alleyne

Great place to get your 1st or 10th tattoo, Matthew tran too great care in bringing my 2nd tattoo to life. Will definitely be revisiting Playhouse.

T and E H

Francis was very friendly and welcoming. I had three tattoos done by him. I had to come in fairly quickly to get them re-touched as there were a lot of irregularities and fading within the first month. After I got them touched up, the lines were defiantly darker and everything looked nicer. However, I will add that there are some areas of the tattoo where the lines are not straight... some lines deviate slightly off course. On my tattoo that consists of writing, one letter had three random blotches (the line in the letter “T” is all over the place). I think Francis is very sweet and welcoming and he defiantly makes you feel comfortable just as everyone is saying ????

Mita Dave

Playhouse is THE BEST place to get a tattoo! They really aren't lying when they say they are best shop in Mississauga! Ami did both my tattoos and I had the best experience with her. She took her time, paid attention to all the small details and made sure the tattoo had everything I wanted. Definitely recommend!! All the workers were so great and are hilarious. Great vibes, great people, great art!! Keep it up Playhouse Tattoos!!

Emmanuel T.

I had such a great experience at Playhouse Studio - everybody that works there is super chill and they play great music throughout the session. The conversations are great and the staff are genuinely interested in you. Jeniya M. was my tattoo artist and she did an exceptional job - I will definitely be getting more tattoos from her and at Playhouse. I highly recommend making an appointment with Jeniya, as she takes the time to make sure your piece is perfect!

Jordan Burton

The Playhouse Tattoo Studio is hands down one of the best if not the best tattoo parlour in Mississauga. Friendly Customer service, great atmosphere and great works from the artist that are there. I was lucky enough to have Frank to do my Piece, very clean very clear cut consultation to make sure I was getting what I really wanted. All in all 5/5 Very Satisfied.

Ultra Lord

Took my safety deposit which was 135 dollars after tax, ripped me off. When I came in to talk to the supposed owner, he made veiled threats such as "I dont like it when people lie to me" and "dont disrespect me" he started asking me to sit down so he could talk down on me. I left when he started putting his hands on me and trying to get into an altercation. I knew that he wanted to aggravate me and realized I wasnt going to get a tattoo done here. They Stole my money and were very unprofessional. They rescheduled me 4 times and then cancelled it. Im going to Malefic Tattoos instead. I do not reccomend this place, its run by children, literally. P.S. once they take ur money they can do whatever they like. I walked in expecting I would be treated like a valued customer, instead I was told to sit down twice and when I politely refused the owner told me that he did not like being disrespected. He then lightly tapped the back of his hand on my chest. I promptly left and the owner tried to chase me out.

Melanie Tran

I got my second tattoo done by Matthew, who was very friendly, professional, and open-minded throughout our whole consultation. The custom image that he had designed for me was the perfect interpretation of what I had in mind! He—and his coworkers—went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable throughout the whole session because it was my first experience getting a large tattoo. Matthew is talented, focused, and highly dedicated to his work; the resulting tattoo is a testament to this. I am deeply satisfied with my new tattoo and it is exactly as I had wished for it to be!

Leo Fabulous

Ami has done two of my tattoos and her work is amazing! She did the first one and within two week I got the second one done that should speak volumes as to how highly I think of her work! The second tattoo I got was a silly idea my sister and I had and Ami made it a reality and way more than we could have ever imagined. She listened and did a custom design for us. Thank you Ami :)

Patel Vaishnovi

If this is your first tattoo or you're just not sure of what to get but want to get something I would HIGHLY recommend this place with Frank being the artist!!! I had the MOST pleasant experience with Playhouse and all the credit for that would have to go to Frank! I went in with an idea of what I wanted with my 2 siblings and a very tight time frame. Frank was VERY accommodative and he did literally everything he could to work around my schedule. Even with the tight time frame, he did not rush the process or skip out on any of the health and safety procedures. He made us all feel comfortable with the procedure and this is very important for people who are getting their first tattoo (NEEDLES CAN BE SCARY and on top of that putting something permanent on your skin is ever SCARIER!!) We loved the end result and are SOOOO glad we met Frank!! Everyone has already said so much about the amazing atmosphere of Playhouse but for us Frank's personal care and attention really made the experience for us! Thank you so much Frank and I can't wait until the next time I'm in town to pop by for a jam sesh :)

Cheryl Barry

Playhouse is an amazing shop. The staff is professional and made me feel like part of the family. Leah is a talented artist and completed a family memorial for me . All staff bent over backwards to make me feel at home. I loved listening to Francis sing ,such a happy person makes one feel at ease when getting tattooed. Kristen at the front desk was knowledable and very helpful when setting me up with Leah my artist. Thanks to everyone I will be back again and will definitely recommend all my friends and family. I certainly can see why this shop is #1. Leah my family ask me to express to you how beautiful your artwork is and how it made us all smile during such a difficult time. Cheryl Barry

Had a great experience, love my tat! The staff is great and the music was awesome. Matthew did an amazing job.

Linh Nguyen

Great tattoo experience. I called early in the afternoon and was given a time estimate for a drop in. Arrived on time, was greeted and helped out right away. The atmosphere was relaxed with great and funny staff. Received a tattoo from Leah, who was pleasant, patient, and professional working with me. I cannot wait for tattoo #2!

Marcos Fonseca

I went to get my first 3 tattoos here at Playhouse Tattoo Studio and I absolutely loved it! The environment was very inviting and I felt very comfortable there. Oliver in particular was absolutely incredible! He did an amazing job on my tattoos, and I loved how they came out! I will definitely com back here to get more work done, especially from Oliver!

Kate Elliott

Received my first tattoo from Francis today at Playhouse. Such an amazing experience. Fair price. The shop was super clean and everyone was extremely friendly and patient. We came up with a design we both loved and began tattooing. Francis is extremely gentle when tattooing and calms you down if you are nervous. Definitely recommend to anyone, and will 100% be back for more:) Thanks everyone!

Pooja Baraiya

Playhouse is an amazing shop filled with some amazing people. I have gotten my biggest piece done by Ami. She is amazing, I was unsure of what piece I wanted to get done and not only did she help me visualize what would look the best on my leg she also easily added some things I really wanted in my tattoo and did not want. That is by far the best tattoo I have gotten and her service was also amazing. Definitely Recommend ! Healing and everything was perfect.

E Rayoff-Pearce

I recently got tattooed a portrait of my daughter by Jordan @ Playhouse Tattoo Studio. As this was a portrait I took a long time before deciding on the right place and the right artist to work on the tattoo...so glad I did. The staff at Playhouse were extremely professional and made it easy for me to get this done. They were informative, clean and supportive. During our designing session listened to what I wanted and visioned with the tattoo to than make great recommendations. Jordan did amazing work with this tattoo!!! He absolutely captured every detail to perfection and appreciated his passion when working on it. Already planing my next tattoe and will be at Playhouse Tattoe Studio. Thank you again!

Kayla De Guzman

Amazing atmosphere & amazing artists! New artist that just started and did 3 tattoo's on me was Mary Tran, beyond amazing! Reccomend coming to this place!

Brittany Burton

Jeniya was amazing, her fine line work is incredible. I’m so happy with tattoos I will definitely go back.

Tara Cameron

I got a small, memorial pet portrait done of my late Pomeranian, by the tattoo artist Wookjin. He did an amazing job. The tattoo is so detailed and it looks amazing! Very realistic. I love it!

Supria Kalirai

Overall I had a great experience at playhouse. Oliver did a great job ensuring that my tattoo was the right size for what I wanted. Since it was my first tattoo I was a bit nervous, but Oliver was reassuring and made the experience seamless. The tattoo turned out great and it’s exactly what I wanted. Will definitely be back for more!

KIMM

Really great place! Super welcoming, friendly, and clean. I got a star tattoo done on my wrist by Jordan, and I'm really happy with it.

Rezeil Castellano

First time getting a tattoo and didnt regret any minute of my experience. Shout out to Arthur, he was great and patient with me, he walked me through everything i needed to know. Thank you!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All the staff was amazing as well, very friendly. ????????

Hri

Got my first tattoo with Francis, was a wonderful experience! Great cleaning protocols during covid, it was all very reassuring. Lots of wonderful talent housed in a creative, clean space. Will definitely be back for more! ❤️

Jenny Nguyen

Absolutely in love with the tattoo Yi designed and did for me! The atmosphere the staff exudes and the space in the shop is amazing. Will definitely continue coming back to extend my piece.

Isha Singh

I got my tattoo done by Francis and it was so lovely! I absolute love his patience and technique, he was very gentle and the tattoos were super clean !! he was also very cool and funny and easy to talk to!!!!! would highly recommend!!!

Kyle Sunga (Kyle Love)

The vibes and the energy is amazing.. First time coming in to get my tattoo done..and I never felt like family there. Definitely, I want to come back to get my sleeve done

Kaitlyn Sutton

Amazing job!! Absolutely love my tattoo which was done EXACTLY the way I wanted it. Couldn't be happier!! Great vibes, great staff, cool place all around!! Ask for Francis** He's super personable/keeps you distracted while under the needle and makes sure you're ready and totally sure when you do it! Such a caring guy, couldn't have felt more comfortable or happy with his tattoo. :)

Ryan Farnum

Great experience! The artists provide a collaborative environment to ensure that you leave with an amazing tattoo

Dire Darlings

Some great artists here, but not the cleanliest place. Prices run a bit high as they charge on a per-inch basis. I was told to come in one morning to speak with an artist but she didn't even show up

Amnit Sandhu

Ami.playhouse did a great job on my tattoo now shes a new sis ima come here more to get other tattoos❤️

vaytiere iglesias

I had a tattoo done by Jeniya and the experience was easy and painless and amazing work done by her. Great atmosphere in the shop as well!

brian padua

Friendly staff. Clean sterile equipment. Jordan was my artist and was completely patient. Offered multiple sizes to my ink, asked all the right questions with placement, and even offered recommendations. He specializes in realism. I'll definitely return!

Kartikay Srivastava

One of the best destination for all your tattoo desires in Mississauga. The place has a positive vibe. Professional, friendly and comforting environment makes it one ofbthe finest tattoo studios. Recently did my tattoo with Francis and he was just so much fun to be with. He was detail oriented and made my tattoo look so easy.

Casey McCluskey

The atmosphere of the shop is very fun and welcoming! Right away I felt comfortable in the shop. My artist, Ami, was very sweet and took her time designing my piece to be exactly what I wanted. The shop is super clean and they have updated procedures to ensure the safety of everyone from COVID-19, including both the clients and artists doing screenings upon entry. I can't wait to come back here for another tattoo in the future!

Adnan Bashir

I visited Playhouse Tattoo Studio two days ago for my very first tattoo and I have to say that thus far, the overall experience has been nothing short of stupendous. From the moment you walk in, an aura of calm and reassurance pervades the entire place, and the staff go above and beyond to make sure that your experience is as pleasant and smooth as possible. The artwork, the music, the banter, the overall vibe - everything is on point. Major, major props to Oliver for rendering my vision (Elven script from Lord Of The Rings) in stunning fashion and being a major help throughout the process - both before and after our session. He works with you in a highly detailed manner to visualize and finalize your favourite piece before embarking on any project, and tirelessly explains the important post-care tips that everyone needs to keep in mind. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a friendly and welcoming crew for all your tattooing needs.

Tina Bambina

My cousin and I got matching tattoos from Ami. Her linework is incredible! She was so very helpful and creative in customizing our idea :) The environment of the shop is fantastic! I loved all the artwork on the walls and how comfortable the place really makes you feel. Playhouse is awesome!!

Linden Lirette

Had Francis do my tattoo recently and I couldn't be more satisfied with my time spent with him during my session. Francis showed passion and focus while working on my piece. It was my first big piece (which also happened to be in my inner bicep) and Francis did an amazing job of making me feel comfortable throughout the entire session. This is the third tattoo studio I've gone to in Mississauga and it was the one I've felt the most calm, relaxed and at ease. Very friendly environment and perfect for anyone that may feel anxious about a tattoo. Ultimately speaking, very happy with the finished product and very happy with the service provided the entire time. Thank you Francis!

Sh Shkr

I called afew times, left afew voicemails they never reach out to me! So disappointed ????

Kasey K

I highly recommend this place. The price the artist (you choose) is worth it. They're very understanding, friendly and just generally the vibe of the place overall is amazing. I went to an artist called Mathew to begin colouring in a tattoo of mine, and I'm beyond happy with the work so far (I have more appointments booked in the future with him to complete it) I will be returning to this place for future tattoos, that's for sure

Kitune Sono

Took someone to Playhouse to get her first tattoo after many years of contemplating. Matthew did an amazing job and she's already planning her next tattoo. He has crazy beautiful artworks, talent, and he knows how to make you feel comfortable, (especially for your first tattoo) highly recommend him. Find him at the playhouse in Mississauga, or message him on his IG. @matthew.playhouse

Holliday Productions

Very friendly, great experience and definitely will be back for more thank you yi and everyone at playhouse I love my tattoo. much respect

Patto

I recently got Tattoo work by Mathew at Playhouse! Super clean amazing lines exactly what I wanted and so much better!! I could not be happier! Thanks!

Ashavari J

Had a wonderful first tattoo experience with Wookjin! He's phenomenal at super detailed work and the tattoo turned out so clean and pretty!! I'm really happy with the results! I'm definitely going back for another one at some point. I also have to say that everyone at Playhouse has great taste in music. I LOVE the vibe and all the artwork on the walls. It's very welcoming, chill and everyone there is so nice to talk to! Especially the owner, Yiwu - he's very kind, fun to talk to and also a very inspiring person!! ^_^ Highly recommended ????❤️

Lurie Carrera Otero

Ami was the artist who assisted my husband and myself. We are very happy with her work. Her lines are just perfect. We will go back to do another tattoo in the future.

Aaron Reyes

Such an amazing place to get an ever lasting memoir piece. Playhouse tattoo is one of the most friendliest and professional places I've had the chance to experience. Their staff really goes above and beyond to make their clients feel at home. Huge shoutout to Francis and Ami for their hospitality and amazing talents. If you ever think of getting any tattoo soon, look for AMI she is simply amazing and will definitely give you the tattoo experience one could ask for. THANK YOU AGAIN PLAYHOUSE TATTOO!!

Katherine Silva

amazing place staff is wonderful i had Ami do my spine tattoo and she is hands down so great! she took her time and was focused and i have never been so happy with this piece of work ! i recommend her and i will get all my future tattoos with her :)

Hana Ishmael

I got my first tattoo done by Abi, she was absolutely amazing! It was a pleasure to be tatted by her. I'm super picky, but she was so patient and sat with me and designed it exactly the way I wanted. During the process she was sweet enough to keep asking and making sure I was okay, along with making jokes with me. Super chill. Thanks again Abi!!

michael pydiah

My tattoo artist was Ami and I gotta say she gave me the craziest and baddest tattoo ever. Had all my coworkers going crazy and wanting to get tattoos. She’s knows exactly what she’s doing and is fast and efficient at getting the job done. I’m 100% going to get another tat from her!!

Kristin Dattoo

I had my tattoo done by Francis and he's literally one of the nicest and kindest people I've ever met. I actually felt like crying because I could sense he genuinely cared about my emotions and wasn't annoyed when I asked questions or was unsure about tattoo placement. He was very patient and when I was anxious and couldn't really decide if I wanted my tattoo "a little to the left" or "a little to the right" he was like "yeah don't worry about it!" "Take your time :)" Not only that, but once he actually started tattooing me, he didn't just sit in silence, he kept asking me things about myself and actually held a conversation with me. I didn't feel uncomfortable for even a second when I was at Playhouse tattoos. I felt very welcomed and safe and will definitely come back for any future tattoos. Compared to the other tattoo places in Mississauga, no one can touch the quality and service Playhouse Tattoo provides. And, they don't overcharge :) Thank you Francis and thank you Playhouse Tattoos!

iaamSaam

This shop is incredible!! Between the dope layout and Yi & Alula being super accommodating, it's very easy to feel at home. On top of that, Yi is a crazy talented artist. I have two tattoos from him that I absolutely love and get a ton of compliments on. I will definitely be back for round three.

Matt Halycz (Official)

Great friendly staff, clean environment. Got a tattoo done by frank, and I couldnt be happier he ensured i was 100% happy with my tattoo and did an incredible job. Will be returning for more work. Thanks guys!

Roshaan

Got my first tattoo by Francis and it looks amazing. Couldn’t be happier with how it went, and I’m looking forward to getting my next piece. First hour and a half was spent putting the final touches on the design until I was completely satisfied, and I did not feel rushed at all throughout the entire session. He definitely made it a fun experience! I highly recommend Playhouse as it’s a fun and clean environment, and they are well priced compared to the other places I had checked.

Andy Nguyen

Great place to get your first tattoo! The price is very affordable and the people there are insanely friendly. The environment is very nice and I got my first tattoo there. Shout out to Matthew who did it for me and helped me throughout everything! Highly recommend!

Cobra Kai

I had walked in with my good friend to get some new ink and we were greeted by leah who did our walk ins. She was precise great personality clean station took the time to get our tattoos right and to our liking. Her lines are so clean precise I would personally recommend her to anyone. Her attention to detail is key. Needless to say my friend and I will be going Back for more. Thanks so much leah!!

Sarah Kosakowski

I was just looking for shops in the area and landed on Playhouse. After my first experience getting tatted yesterday, I am very happy to have chosen this place. I felt very comfortable and welcomed in their environment and by their staff and I really liked their space as it was clean and embellished with artwork. As an illustrator/artist myself, I had a general feeling of what I was looking for in a potential tattoo artist and how my piece could be translated by them, but I was blown away by how impressive my moon piece turned out thanks to artist Wookjin. I admire that he took his time with every fine detail (and so much dot work!). I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get their first or next tattoo. Look to Wookjin if you value intricate craftsmanship. So much talent in one space! Thanks again!

Jeff Presnail

Inviting, clean, modern space and great staff who make you feel welcome. Great aftercare and quality minimalist linework done on my girlfriend and I by Roxanna, even though realism is her specialty. (We were walk-ins.) Good rate as well, definitely not overpriced.

I got my first tattoos done by Matthew after they took me as a walk-in over the weekend. I had done a lot of research prior to committing (three years worth of research haha) and I am so glad I found the people at Playhouse. The environment is so welcoming and all the staff are super friendly. Matthew made my experience very comfortable despite how nervous I was at the beginning. He talked me through the whole process and I was more than pleased with the outcome. He took my own sketches of the designs and did a perfect job with placement and details, even though they were very small tattoos. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend to all! Looking forward to coming by for new tattoos soon :)

If you’re looking for a studio that works with professionalism, keeps very sanitary stations, equipped with talented artists, and has an extremely welcoming and friendly atmosphere then Playhouse is perfeft for you. I’ve had 3 pieces now done with Francis and all times was a fun and pleasurable tattoo experience. They make sure your expectations are 100% met and will do whatever they can to make sure you leave fully satisfied with their work. Will most definitely come back for more and would gladly recommend others here.

Ami did great work on a simple script tattoo on my left wrist. She was very thoughtful and help me with some design elements and made sure I was comfortable with everything as we moved through the process. I'm already planning the next one. Thanks Ami!

Leighla Peres

I found Playhouse tattoos on Instagram, I loved that it's was 5 mins away from my house, they had great reviews and the artists portfolios were epic. So I emailed them up and booked my father's and my own tattoos for my 24th Birthday. A few weeks go by and the day of the session comes up and there was a hic up but the artist doing my ink called and squashed any concerns and made it happen. Francis was amazing from the minute my dad and I walked in. Both him and Leah worked amazingly and we both adore our tattoos. I would also like to express how horrible I feel to whomever I was emailing as I know I probably came off super (b-itc*y) and I am so sorry. It just meant the world to me to finally get this tattoo. I'd been waiting a long minute. But honestly you are all amazing super chill and I can't Thank Francis or Leah enough for your amazing ink. Thank you so much! This won't be the last you see of me or my family I promise you've made forever customers or the Peres and Coluccio families. ????????????????

Playhouse Tattoo had an amazing atmosphere and extremely friendly staff. They made me feel welcome and I can tell the entire shop is filled with amazing and talented artists. Wookjin did an unbelievable job on my tattoo and I could not be more happy! I would highly recommend this shop and I would 100% come back again.

Adam Z (Adam Zareh Real Estate)

I knew the owner before they opened playhouse tattoo, and was very proud of the success of this store. until recently I found out that this shop has knocked off a design that I recieved from another tattoo shop location. My artist spent a lot of time and hard work on creating and tattooing the design for me and to find out that it was knocked off by someone in the same city as me and by an "artist" who I formally recieved tattoo work from leaves me extremely disappointed in the professionalism, integrity and artistic choice of this shop. I would not recommend visiting this shop unless you're looking to knock off a design that someone invested their time & energy in to creating.

Justin Seepaulsing

Got my first tattoo done by Jordan who is really talented in realism and it turned out amazing! Playhouse has some really talented artists working there and I would recommend them to anyone!

Justin Dantas

I wish I could rate higher than this. My experience at this shop was incredible. Francis did my tattoo and did a fantastic job. He took an original design I had and took the time to create his own version of it, which was 100 times better than the original. While tattooing me, he made me feel comfortable and safe so that I wasn’t as anxious as I was when I first arrived there. He pays attention to detail and being the perfectionist that he is, won’t say your tattoo is finished until he has made sure that every little detail is done. I will definitely be coming back for more tattoos in the future! ❤️

W Naj

Friendly and professional staff ... Nice atmosphere.. Very clean, while I was getting tattooed one of the artists finished his shift and he sanatized his whole area (chairs equipment and working station) .. Prices are very reasonable ... Francis was my artist and he did and excellent job

Dezzly Dee

Super friendly staff. Very clean equipment and work space. Perfect location for your first tattoo, everyone there made me feel comfortable :)

Meghan Hale

Amazing experience and very happy with my tattoo done by Leah. 10/10 all around, in terms of pricing, timing, planning the tattoo, etc.! Thank you!

Enrique Gutierrez

If you are looking for an excellent, perfect and kind service, go with them, a great experience, for a perfect piece of art on your body, just amazing, Francis did a ultra-amazing job, great artist.

Danielle Barbeau-Rodrigue

Well what can I say other than MERCI MERCI MERCI Ami! I am totally blown away with my new tattoo. It took me more than a year to find the perfect person for this piece as it means so much to me. You absolutely killed it! I absolutely love it!

Grace Bang

Each and every artist at this shop is sooo talented. Any time I get a piece done, I trust them more than I trust myself. They have a good sense of what looks good and what doesn’t. You can tell a lot of detail goes into their work.

Alana Corcoran

My tattoo artist was Ami Dave, I couldn't recommend her more! She custom designed a fine line rose tattoo for me and it was exactly what I wanted! Ami is extremely talented at what she does, I can't wait to get more tattoo's from her in the future. I highly recommend anyone looking for super clean, fine lines to check out her work!! Its also a bonus that she is super sweet and makes you feel so comfortable during the entire process. Thank you again for the amazing tattoo!!!

N0va

Had an incredible experience after finding Jordan from Playhouse on Instagram. He immediately ran with my concept and sent me ideas back as quickly as a few hours later. He also hands down gave me the best price in the city. The shop was awesome and clean, with a great atmosphere and music. Jordan showed extreme patience with me in getting my placement right and did incredible work during the tattoo process. Barely felt a thing and now have an incredible piece of art on my arm. Thanks Jordan and the team at Playhouse! I look forward to coming back

Marco Angelo Pelayo

The company I found at Playhouse was cool, approachable, talented, and with just enough vocal/rap gusto to still enjoy the classic pop tunes that fills the studio's overall good energy. My artist of choice was Wookjin (IG @wookjin.playhouse -- my tattoos can be viewed there). He may carry and describe himself as a shy dude, but on the contrary, he was easy to connect with both on the creative level and a personal level. His talent and work is bar none one of the best I've seen and am proud to own his art on my [right] arm. This place is nothing but a fantastic gem. Thus, google reviewer, fret no more in finding a studio (I'm doing that for you), and lean your decision process/future investment on which creative genius to ally with.

Megha Girotra

I had originally made an appointment at Playhouse to cover up a tattoo with an idea that did not end up working. However, Oliver took the time to help me choose and create a design that I would walk away with loving. He was very patient and understanding. Everyone at Playhouse is very kind and welcoming as well.

Leslie Fantone

Got my first tattoo here. Was able to fit me walking in, super clean space, friendly staff. Finished work was perfect and what’s more incredible is that the artist was able to tattoo me without me bleeding or being in pain. I have since gotten 2 more tattoos and both were mildly painful and has some bleeding. The new pieces were around the space spot so I can say with certainty that it was the particular artist who is exceptional. Highly recommend!!

Crystal McAuley

My sister and I had been contemplating what kind of tattoo we could get together for a very long time and had looked at different places for an artist that fit our style, and then we found Ami’s work on Instagram and we knew we wanted to go to her. I am very detail oriented and dare I say I’m very picky and don’t make decisions easily, so getting a tattoo was scary because I couldn’t know how it would turn out. Ami exceeded all of my expectations- she sat with us designing it for so long, listening to our ideas and also adding her own which ended up in the most perfect tattoo that we could have asked for! We just couldn’t stop staring at it since it was even better than we had expected. We were so happy with the experience as well as the outcome, and the studio had such a laid back atmosphere that we enjoyed while we were there :)

ajith megha

Today I had my first tattoo. Awesome experience with Francis . He got lots of ideas and It was so comfortable during that session. The tattoo that I expected came out exactly as what I told to him.I appreciated his patience for being keep updating my tattoo again and again during the session .

Hasti M

Playhouse Tattoo Studio never disappoints. Not only is Yi an amazing artist, but him and his colleagues are always warm and welcoming. Finding a tattoo shop that is comfortable and inviting can be difficult sometimes but these guys do that effortlessly! Yi will go out of his way to ensure that everyone leaves the place with a dope tattoo and a smile on their face. So glad I found this place, I will be coming here for as long as it is up and running!

Gesoth N

Very nice shop and people in the shop were very kind no one was staring at you like a alien Francis was very cool sat down with us took his time to replicate what was really in our minds as to a tattoo idea very open minded and also very polite and patient

Edison Oliver

Got my first and second tattoos done here by Matthew. He's paitent and easy to work with. He will be able to help you personalize and create a tattoo with you. His work is nothing but excellence. Definitely coming back again.

Tom M

Very good work done by Abby. Clean lines and very meticulous. Was patient with me and super nice to answer anything that came to mind. Everyone is very friendly that I interacted with actually. Place is clean and has some cool artworks hanging. Would recommend ????

Alessia Piccolo

I came to Ami with an old tattoo that I wanted covered up, and had the best experience! Not only did she give me a variety of tattoo designs, she sat with me until we got the final design just perfect and exactly how I wanted it. She was super patient and took the vision from my head and made it happen, and not to mention her line work is INCREDIBLE. The shop is also extremely clean and everyone is super friendly. Highly recommend!!

Maccnificent

Don't bother calling, no one answers. Don't bother messaging on social media, no one cares. Don't bother emailing, you'll get one response in one week, awesome customer service ????. If you enjoy being ignored and ghosted by a tattoo shop that doesn't care to tattoo you, then this is the place for you.

Julia Gordon

I got my first tattoo 3 days ago and was very happy to have Jeniya be the one to do it for me! She made the design better than i imagined. Jeniya made me feel very comfortable and took her time to make sure it was perfect.The tattoo looks amazing! Everyone at Playhouse studio is very kind and makes you feel welcome! Would definitely come again.

Alex Tyrie

Had my first tattoo done here by Yi recently - awesome experience. Super friendly and answered my numerous questions, and is a very talented artist. All in all everyone there was really nice and I wasn't nervous at all. Highly recommend this place!

Trevor Jones

I got my first tattoo here with Leah and it was a great experience. They worked with me to get exactly what I wanted and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process.

seema sadiq

I got my first tattoo done today, amazing work by FRANCIS .. He did a splendid job with precision and made my first tattoo experience a memorable one. A professional and an easy going guy full of life... Totally love his work ....Am already planning the next one.. Thank you Francis ...

Alex Wilk

Incredible first tattoo experience. Felt a bit nervous at first but Francis made it bearable with his friendliness and great sense of humour :) That being said, the atmosphere was very welcoming and the entire staff was amazing. The artists here really take their time to make sure you get exactly what you want. I’m super happy with how the tat turned out and will be returning for more, thanks so much Playhouse!

Rachel

I got a tattoo done by Matthew and have really enjoyed my experience from the start to finish. He is very kind, welcoming, helpful and made the whole process super easy. The artist was determined to make me feel happy and confident with the design, and had no problem making any changes that I asked for. I find the quality of his work very detailed, crisp, clean and impactful. The work is some of the best that I've seen. I hope to get more work done by him in the future. I HIGHLY recommend him!

Termeh Kamali

My best friend and I got matching tattoos done by Ami, and the experience was amazing. She was very professional regarding any questions or concerns we had, kept it fun and overall a positive experience. Staff is super friendly there. Side note but the art work on the walls was phenomenal.

Emily Tecson-Cook

The environment was amazing. Me and my friend went to go get out tattoos with Mary, she was absolutely amazing. It was my friends first tattoo and the workers were so welcoming and friendly they calmed her down. Great friendly workers! I will definitely be back.

Rebecca Dinh

I got my first tattoo done by Francis and all I can say is WOW!!! absolutely UH-may-zing!!! Best first experience I could've asked for. Francis is such a great artist; very genuine and dedicated to his work. He put so much time and effort into my tattoo to make it the best that it could be and I'm so happy with the results.. He's super patient and understanding and he made me so comfortable all throughout the session. No complaints at all, 11/10 definitely. Also he is a super fun guy!! Makes the lamest jokes but man oh man they are still funny haha xDD I'm definitely gonna be back for more!!

T S

I had a great experience at Playhouse Tattoo! Ami was extremely accommodating with my schedule and a pleasure to work with. She helped put together some great designs and I would highly recommend her to all my family and friends!

Nalini Jagnarine

I was hesitant at first going to place to do a tattoo that I have never been to before. Getting a tattoo is super important for me as its something you have with for life. However, I am sooo happy I chose Playhouse Tattoo. The service was amazing and the vybe was inviting. Ami did my tattoo and she will always be my go to girl. She made me feel so comfortable and took time to go through with me the design, colour and gave me suggestions on what she thought was best. Great service!!! Her talent and attention to detail is beyond impressive. Check her out!

Alya Naqvi

From the first consultation to the last time I went to get a new dressing on my tattoos, I had a great experience at Playhouse Tattoos. Leah was my tattoo artist and she did an amazing job! Not only did i love her work, but she was very patient with me, even though I kept changing my mind and had to come back a couple of times. She never made me feel rushed at all. I would def recommend this place for anyone. Nice people and atmosphere!

Chandni Jutla

This place is amazing ! Everyone is so friendly and not to mention, super talented. I had my tattoo done by Wookjin and I am very pleased with it! I will definitely go back for future tats :)

Graham Leckie

The team at Playhouse made my first tattoo an absolute pleasure from start to finish. I was on a relatively tight timeline due to playing hockey (and giving time to heal) and they were able to fit me in the same week outside of Ami's usual hours. Ami was amazing to work with. I initially had the idea for the tattoo and my fiancee put together the design which Ami had no issue in working with. I was in and out in a couple of hours and now a month later it has healed perfectly and there is only a small touch up required. I would definitely recommend Playhouse and their team - super friendly and a great environment!

Shakoor Chowdhury

I got my first two tattoos here on the same day. The environment is very relaxed and Abigail was really reassuring especially since I was so nervous. I can’t wait to get more tattoos here cause she was right: it is addicting????

Raeliana Morin

Super friendly staff that are detail oriented! They make sure you are happy with what you're getting and make sure you feel okay after the tattoo process. I never felt intimidated or judged which made me really happy! Definitely recommend this place ????

Marc Mandani

Had the opportunity to work with Francis on me and my best friends tattoo. Excellent service, he took the time to really help us find a design that we were happy with and provided multiple options. Definitely felt that he genuinely cared about what these tattoos ment to me and my friend and was completely ok with us taking our time finding the perfect placement for our stencils. Did not feel pressured or rushed to get it done, but more so comforted by how willing he was to re do the placements until we were completely happy. Truly cares about his craft and will definitely come back. Great environment, welcoming staff, quality work, playhouse is where it’s at ????????

Felix E Rosario

Wow!!! What an amazing experience!! I must admit that Playhouse Tattoo Studio is the place to go to if you want highly professional service when it comes to getting a Tattoo . It is a friendly, comfortable and welcoming environment which makes getting a Tattoo very fun and easy. Thanks to all the Tattoo artists at Playhouse Tattoo Studio,specially Matthew for the awesome job done on my Tattoo which totally fulfilled my expectations.

Taryn

Playhouse Tattoo is a great place to go! The studio itself is clean, fresh and edgy. The tattoo artists are also fantastic. Ami does my tattoos and she is so professional, friendly and extremely talented! She is patient, understanding and puts so much care and effort in her work.

Maria M

I have bee at Playhouse twice in the last six months. My experience has always been great, the atmosphere is very welcoming and there is a sense of community. I had one my tattoos done by Ami, she is very friendly and patient with me while I was deciding on my tattoo. She did an amazing job! My most recent experience was with Andrea, she is extremely detailed and took her time to ensure that the work was done to her perfection. I am definitely coming back as soon as possible. Great job guys!!!

Timothy Bergstrom

This place is exactly what I wanted from a tattoo studio. The staff were all very inviting and helpful and the skill level of the artists is phenomenal. I had originally planned on getting a tattoo with Yi, but he referred me to Wookjin for my specific tattoo. There are different artists who specialize in different styles and from what I have seen this place can be a one stop shop if you lean towards black and grey tattoos. Wookjin was very helpful with designing my tattoo and was able to create something that I wanted, while also incorporating elements of his signature style into my tattoo. I am so glad I picked Wookjin for my Venom tattoo because he was able to literally print the image I wanted onto my arm without missing any details. His attitude towards his tattoo and ambition to be great really show, as he was respectful to me as a client. Wookjin told me "I would not do a tattoo on someone that I would not want to have myself" which made me feel comfortable, but his execution was really what strengthened my trust for this artist. During stretch breaks, the whole staff at playhouse were very entertaining. I spent the whole day at Playhouse Tattoo Studio and it was just so much fun being there. Thanks for the sick tattoo Wookjin

Amanda Woods

If I could give this place more starts I WOULD! Awesome vibes throughout the place and the people are super friendly. Francis did my tattoo and did a fantastic job. I am very happy with how my tattoo turned out! Francis also touched up an older tattoo of mine at the end of the session and I am very grateful =) I will definitely be coming back here for more tattoos in the future and I HIGHLY recommend this place, cant stress that enough! Thanks Playhouse and thank you Francis !!

Wayne S

I have found my new home, i walked in and was greated by Francis right away and i stayed for many hours laughing and enjoying the comfort and friendly feel. I highly highly highly recommend this place to anyone. As a matter of fact i was texting people about the place while i was there, i will be there at least once a month and only this place from now on for all of my ink.

Medha Sarma

I have gotten 4 tattoos by Ami, all are very fine lined. She's incredibly talented and definitely has me coming back. Playhouse is all in all, a very aesthetic, neat place to get tatted. Would 100% recommend.

bearstearn3

Having being interested in getting my first tattoo for over a year, a friend of mine had referred me to his old friend from school who had just opened up a shop near square one. My first impressions of the shop was a lot different from what I had imagined a typical tattoo shop would look like. It was very casual and non-intimidating and they even had a pool table at the back! Yi, the head tattoo artist walked me through the entire process and what to expect for the end product to look like after he was finished. He was very patient and accommodating to what i was looking for even as i am a picky person. The actual tattoo was finished in a reasonable amount of time as it took only about an hour and a half and although there were painful moments, it was totally worth it. I'm extremely pleased with how the finished product looks like especially with all the compliments I got from my friends after showing-off to them. Overall, I'm glad I was able to experience my first tat here at this shop as both Yi and his business partner Alula, whom I had met on my first day of consultation were very personable. Thanks again Yi!

Bovem Life

Playhouse Tattoo's is hands down the best shop in Mississauga! It was my first tattoo and everyone in the shop made me feel super comfortable right off the bat. Ami did an amazing job on me and my brothers tattoo's and her line work is absolutely flawless! Definitely going back in the future to get more!

KingKdot

This tattoo shop isn’t rated number 1 in Mississauga for no reason. The vibes are amazing, the people are super nice, and they are efficient. I was scheduled to get my tattoo during February and Matthew found a spot for me during November. Matthew is an insane artist and really knows how to make a picture look so much better on your arm. If you want realistic tattoos with a lot of details; go to matthew! During my first session, I barely had any sleep and I didn’t eat much either. Matthew noticed the pain I was in and offered me pizza to feel better. I’m definitely looking forward to finish my sleeve with Matthew in the future. Thanks homie ????????

Mj Francis

Ami made my first tattoo experience super easy. She was easy to talk to and understood what I wanted and how quickly I wanted to get it done. This tattoo was to represent my pregnancy losses and wanted it done by October 15th (Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day) and Ami was able to take what I wanted, design and complete the tattoo in less than a two weeks time. She provided great after care instructions and my tattoo has healed beautifully. If I go back for another tattoo, I'll definitely be going there again. Thank you Ami!

Isabel Jasmine

Yi and Alula are fantastic. Booking an appointment was an absolute breeze. Very accommodating and caring staff. The shop itself is at an easy to find location, clean and comfortable. First time at the shop was a great experience - they made me feel like family and could talk to them forever. I highly recommend this shop - you don't be disappointed. Very, very happy with my tattoo - I will most definitely be back for more. Thank you Playhouse!! See you soon!

Maurizio becci

Thanks Oliver for the amazing experience at Playhouse tattoo. You did an excellent job and professional service.

Jeffrey Lo

Honestly, not gonna lie, this is by far one of the most professional places I’ve ever stepped foot in. People were friendly and polite, the atmosphere was beautiful and welcoming. I got my sleeve from Yi and he was more than willing to accommodate to my needs. Highly recommend this place!

Mimosa Nguyen

I got my first tattoo done with Mary about a month ago and I absolutely love it!! Her script is beautiful and her lines are clean. Mary was the sweetest; she made sure that my ideas for the piece were being fulfilled, that I was comfortable during the tattooing process, and even checked up on my progress a week later! Beyond that, the staff is so friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere of the shop is very comforting. The booking and consultation process is also very easy and efficient. Definitely looking forward to going back for another tattoo in the future!

Vishaal

I got my first tattoo with Jeniya and would highly recommend anyone to do the same. I sent over a font ahead of time that was too bold for the wrists and she was able to modify it before I came in. I didn't really know what to expect but the process was really smooth from booking to after care instructions. I'm loving my new ink! The shop followed COVID protocols and other artists were also very friendly!

Karla Cruz

My first experience with tattoos was with Jeniya. She was super kind, patient and took the time to guide me on my tattoo. I love my tattoo it was as I wanted. thank you for such a wonderful first tattoo experience.

Brian McCran

I just want to thank all the staff from the reception desk all the way to the staff all around. I had an amazing experience getting my tattoo with Francis. He took the time to show me my design on the computer to the finished product. If anyone is not sure to where to go for a tattoo, being it your first or your next “Playhouse “ is the place to go for sure. It’s a very friendly atmosphere where you can tell the staff are like family to each other rather than just co-workers. Highly recommended!!! Brian McCran Sent from Mail for Windows 10

Kaitlynn

I got my wolf done at Playhouse by Jordan. He did an amazing job and it came out better than I could of ever imagined. Such a great atmosphere filled with creative, talented and humble artists. The quality is no doubt some of the best I've seen. I live in Guelph and will be doing the hour and a half drive there just to get tattooed by Jordan from now on.

S. Sampson

Amazing vibes in this studio. Even on a slow empty Easter Monday! Francis was patient, professional and most importantly did an excellent job on my realistic chair tattoo. They gave me a seat at the table and they won't ever get it back! ???? …

Pete Nak

The staff is very courteous and it is a very welcoming environment for a first timer (first tattoo) like myself. I had the pleasure of being tattoed by Jordan whom I highly recommend as he is considerate to comfort levels and a pleasant, professional tattoo artist. His work is also meticulous and well-executed. I highly recommend this tattoo shop.

Jezebel Hades

Three weeks ago I got my second tattoo at Playhouse.Since Yi did my first tattoo I wanted to have him do a bigger piece..not only did he take the time to make my design perfectly the way I envisioned..his suggestions helped a lot with the outcome.This place is clean, the atmosphere is awesome and the staff are so friendly. My tattoo look badass and I`m already planning to have more tattoos done there!.

Saphera Peters

Got my second tattoo by Ami the other day. She's just so good I had to come back! Ami was kind and her work is phenomenal. She added on to an existing piece I had from a very long time ago. She sat down with me and we came up with a design together. Definitely recommend going to her, such a sweet girl! Also, the shop itself is extremely clean. 4/5 of my tattoos are from playhouse and I definitely plan on getting more. Love the vibe of the store!

Irina Dima

Very welcoming staff, they made getting tattooed a relaxing experience. All of the artists are very talented here. Good music and a great atmosphere.

Sammie Lei

Jordan le claire is fireeeeeee. Playhouse is professional, friendly, and the whole vibe of the shop is chill, fun, and full of talented artists. Got a whole sleeve done here.

Phxmmers

Dopest tattoo shop I've ever been too !!! Staff is amazing and yis a dope artist. Very well compose and easy to work with.

The Momsplanation A Podcast

Had the best experience with Ami! The shop is immaculate, and my tattoo is by far some of the best fine line work I have ever seen!

J Brideau

I am beyond impressed with Playhouse Tattoo. If you’re looking for a portrait or realism tattoo, reach out to Jordan! ???????? 10/10

Nero Ibi

I had my first tattoo here with Oliver and it was great. He was awesome to talk to the whole time, explained the procedure in great detail and kept me equipped with what I needed for the full process from tattoo ideation, to payment, all the way to aftercare. 10/10

Erica Streisslberger

I went in to book a tattoo and the guy I was to get the tattoo with had an appointment at 12:00pm and mine was at 1:00pm. The tattoo artist spent almost. 3 hours because he was doing 2 people and no one had told me I left without a tattoo which would have taken only a minute. He then had suggested I rebook so I did he gave me a quote of $120.00 because I had waited. I left at 2:40 and he still wasn’t done I came back the next day and he was still working on someone so he let another artist do my tattoo and I had a really good experience with her except she charged me twice I was paying 150.0 so I gave her 80.00 in cash and then was going to pay 100.00 on debit I ended up paying the 80.00 on my debt then paying another 80.00 on my debit. I really enjoyed my time with the artist who did my tattoo

Emily Wadham

Francis was an absolutely amazing artist! So friendly and took the time needed to make sure it was perfect. Thanks so much for the tattoo. I’ll definitely be back soon for round 2.

Jessica Galeano

I cannot even begin to describe how happy I was with the entire experience I had with my artist Ami and the entire Playhouse team. Very professional, friendly, and an extremely talented bunch of people. Ami, thank you times infinity!! I absolutely love my piece and cannot wait for the next one!

Sadie Edmond

Loved my time at the Playhouse with Matthew! I have been searching for someone for a long time to do this tattoo as it has a LOT of line work. When I saw Matthews work I knew it was a good fit. The consult with him was thorough and a unique experience compared to other tattoos I have had. It left me feeling confident in my choice and totally pumped for the day of! This champ sat with me for 5 and a half hrs straight to make my vision come to life. I get SO many complements on the finished product. The lines are so clean and it is exactly what I have wanted. I cannot thank him enough! I would happily sit in his chair again.

Kay Blas

Playhouse is the best, I won’t go to any other tattoo shop. They have amazing artists and a great atmosphere. I’ve gotten tattoos from Ami and Matthew and they’re both crazy talented. Thanks for the beautiful artwork. I can’t wait for my next one!

Edijah Williams

Walked in with my best friend to get some small work done. Matthew did both of our pieces and they both look amazing. He asked a lot of questions to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Everyone in the shop is patient and friendly. I'll definitely come back to get more work the next time I'm in Canada.

Lareen Wilona

Went to Ami Dave yesterday to get my tattoo done. It was my 5th tattoo && my first time at playhouse and definitely the best experience i’ve had. Ami was such a doll && had the perfect design for what i wanted!

Emily M

Jeniya at Playhouse is amazing! She's so talented and professional. She's also super sweet and creates a comfortable environment. Going back for sure!

Jason Wong

Matt was my artist, great guy with a great personality and skill. Got my koi fish done from him and can't wait until my next session in May. Keep up the great work. 100% recommend him to my friends.

Tirzah Love

This was my biggest/longest piece and I am so in love with it! I found Play house on yelp, reviewed their photos and feed back, and I knew t was the right place. I was visiting Mississauga from Cali and Mathew took great care of me! Not only was he kind, gentle, and tedious, I am in love with my tattoo. I can’t stop looking at it lol!! If you want good quality and great company, see Matthew!! I’ll be back for another on my next visit!

Geneviève Rodrigue

Fantastic experience getting tattooed at Playhouse! Wookjin is an incredibly talented artist, very patient and kind. The atmosphere was great, and everyone there was warm and welcoming. Super satisfied with the tattoo, highly recommend Playhouse.

Christina Mlinaric

Amazing vibe and amazing skill! Had my tattoo done by Ami and all three of us who got tatted by her that day LOVE it! Had an overall great experience and now have something beautiful on my body forever :) So happy!

Zilan Akgul

I had Jordan do my right rib. This was my first tattoo, and it was such an easy going process even though the rib “apparently” hurts a lot. The whole process from the different stencils and making sure I was fine with everything, to making me look at it to see if it’s what I want, was the best. Thank you so much Jordan! I will definitely be coming here for future ones!

Thea M

The artists are great and the atmosphere is positive. Mary did an awesome job on my tattoo. Already booked for another????

I had my first tattoo done with Ami back in October 2021 and I can’t recommend her or this studio enough! I was quite nervous as it was my first tattoo but, Ami was so sweet and welcoming. She answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. Ami is so talented. The detail she managed to include in my tattoo is amazing! I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out!

Tijanna Morrison-Gallant

I got my very first tatto done here by Oliver and all I can say is it was amazing. The piece looks amazing and I was very comfortable

Amanda Gillard

I just got a memorial tattoo in honour of my grandmother that loved hummingbirds. Oliver was so helpful and kind in creating something so beautiful to honour my grandma. I would highly recommend him !! It’s more beautiful than I could of imagined it and he was so friendly the entire time ! ????

Playhouse has such a relaxing vibe to it. Matthew was very patient and accommodating for my first tattoo. He was able to bring the sentimental design I had imagined to life. I'll definitely return to Matthew for my next tattoo.

Warren Ward

Amazing service and convenience. Made two appointments in the same day. I was accommodated in a professional manner and well taken care of. I would recommend Playhouse tattoo to anyone.

Debby Conderan

Today Ami did a small intricate tattoo on my wrist. First she sat at the computer and very patiently helped me find the design I liked the best. She reworked it and gave me good artistic ideas until it was right. During the tattooing process she was professional but friendly. I found her very gentle and there was very little discomfort. All in all it was a great experience. You can tell Ami loves her work.

Naiad Baksh

Yi's artwork and professionalism were tremendous! The tattoo exceeded my expectations and his line work is some of the best.

Eric Ryan

The best possible experience you could ever get when going for a tattoo. Not only is the environment super relaxing and creative-filled, the staff is friendly and are clearly MASTERS at their profession. Matthew (who did my sleeve) has done an AMAZING job and guided me through the whole process and has made my experience one to remember. I would recommend Matthew and this tattoo studio to ANYONE looking for a BEAUTIFUL tattoo with an OUTSTANDING customer experience. Thank you guys. You've earned a customer for life.

Bella Campanile

Playhouse Tattoo Studio truly upholds its position as the best tattoo shop in Mississauga. The environment and atmosphere of the shop is lively, friendly, and straight up amazing. Ami was the one who designed and tattooed me, an incredible conversationalist and an exceptional artist. She calmed my nerves and helped ensure that I was prepared, as well as satisfied and comfortable with the look, style, font, and sizing of my tattoo. I had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend going to Playhouse for your tattoo needs. Thank you again Ami I genuinely appreciate you and the work you put into my tattoo.

Ariana Kaminski

Loved my experience at Playhouse Tattoos. They were very welcoming, friendly and the atmosphere was amazing. Plus, Wookjin did an incredible job. Absolutely love my tattoo!

Sharon Cruz

I got my first tattoo here and the people were very welcoming and it had a good atmosphere, they made me feel very comfortable while doing the tattoo which helped me not be so sad or nervous.They are also very clean. Over all a great place to get your tattoo. Definitely coming back here!!

Harman Bath

Just got my first tattoo from Playhouse with Ami! I was extremely pleased with my experience. She was a dream to work with. Right from the beginning, she took the time to make sure I was satisfied with the look and placement of my tattoo. The attention to detail was great and the outcome was unreal! As for the studio itself, it is really clean and inviting. Proper measures were taken to ensure comfort and cleanliness. I will definitely be going back soon!

Jamie Brockie

I just went today for my second tattoo and again I had such a great experience. I went last year for my first tattoo and was so excited to go back. I worked with Oliver and he made the experience so easy and did an outstanding job. I would highly recommend Oliver and the studio just for the 2 great experiences I've already had, thanks again!

Nemanja Trbojevic

I had 10/10 experience at this studio! My tattoo was done by this gem Ami, she was amazing since day one and throughout our consultations regarding my design. I was pretty demanding with my ideas and wasn't really sure how to put everything together so Ami would literally work on my design and email me ideas at 2:30, 3 AM, talk about dedication eh. I thought it would take forever to get my design exactly as I want it, since I was pretty specific with the look but then didn't have the idea how to put it together so it all seems well blended and resonates with the look I was going for. I sent Ami couple of photos and she literally came up with a whole new design that looked way better than what I ever imagined, and I though I knew stuff since I work in a creative field as well lol, I was shocked how good it looked. The 8h session itself flew by really fast as Amy is pretty chill person to talk with as well as other people in the studio, everyone is pretty uplifting and easygoing. Thanks again Ami, make sure to drink water!! lmao

Jamie Wright

Thank you Ami. You did a great job with my daughters tattoo. It was her first tattoo and everyone was very nice there and made her feel very comfortable. Ami did great work and made her feel really comfortable. Mia really really loves her first tattoo. I would definitely recommend going here

Erick Reyes

Had my first tattoo done here by Oliver and I can't stress about how great my experience was at Playhouse and with Oliver. Not only was the piece he completed amazing, but his insight, design, suggestions and demeanor during the tattoo were great. I look forward to getting another piece done here soon.

Anthony Long

Had the whole family (me, my wife, and son) in to see Matthew. This was the first tattoo for all of us and Matthew made us feel comfortable about what we wanted and what he was able to provide. He met with us twice before we had the tattoos done and assured us that he could recreate exactly what we wanted. The results for all of us were awesome. Staff at Playhouse were also friendly and accommodating. Thanks Matthew, much appreciated. Tony, Cynthia, and Brendan

Rafael Buenaflor

Just got my first tattoo done here, it was a half sleeve and I couldn't be more happier that I chose playhouse! Francis took good care of me and is so talented when it comes to his craft. The atmosphere is also great at playhouse, good music, charismatic staff and I just felt really comfortable here. Especially during this pandemic, the safety procedures and consistency with cleanliness helped make me feel even more comfortable. I honestly recommend coming here to get inked and to just enjoy the experience. Thanks again playhouse and thank you Francis!

Aleks V

Artist: Matt From the consultation to the tattoo itself, I'm seriously impressed. Matt went above and beyond to accommodate my ideas while being able to produce a wicked design from paper to skin. I wasn't the most still canvas but he still managed to make every line and detail perfect. I highly recommend both the studio and this artist. The place has a really laid back but professional atmosphere which really lends itself to the overall experience. Will be back!

Vm's Production

Playhouse Tattoo Studio... What can I say it's the place to be for unique and awesome tattoos.. Environmentally friendly, clean, unique staff and unique hospitality to make you feel comfortable and relax... PTS.. it's where you wanna get tatted up....

Grace Pinkerton

Went to get my first tattoo! Love how it turned out! Jeniya did a great job with my tattoo, it was in my moms handwriting and it turned out better than I could have hopped for! It was a quick and easy process!

Jay S

I have gotten a few tattoos from 2 different artists at Playhouse and my experience was amazing each time. The environment is really colourful, lively and the entire staff makes you feel welcomed. Getting my actual tattoo's was really positive, I really liked the amount of input I was asked for and how involved I was kept through the design and during the tattoo. Thank you again!!

Nino Lovell

I had Jeniya very recently for 2 tattoos and she was so lovely to work with. She was friendly right away and made me feel very comfortable. The detail on the line work of the tattoos was absolutely great, I highly recommend her! 10/10 experience, friendly and professional staff, clean environment, everything you could ask for.

jeremy fantin

Had such an amazing experience with Francis getting my tattoo done today. He is such a fun person and an amazing artist! I am so happy with the work he did for me today. The shop has such great environment that makes you feel right at home. Can't wait to get more work done from the artists at playhouse!!! I highly recommend this shop to anyone interested in getting another new tattoo! 6/5 stars!

Kris Sibal

After months of hesitation I finally decided to get my first tattoo. I was referred to Francis at Playhouse by a close friend of mine and I have to say the experience from beginning to end was fantastic. To begin we chatted online as I bounced ideas back and forth with him before actually coming In person. He was very quick and helpful with all his responses. Once I was set on a design Francis invited me in to the shop to get it done. The studio itself was trendy, pumping good music with lots of artwork on the walls to admire. Francis worked with me on setting the location of the tattoo and settling on a good size. I asked a lot of questions because the experience was new to me and he was extremely patient and helpful walking me through it all step by step. We got to work and I have to say I was really happy with the end result. I will definitely be back for future work and I would highly recommend Francis to anyone and everyone due to his overall professionalism and talent. Thank you Francis and Playhouse for making my first tat experience a great one.

Jean Pierre

Had my first tattoo here last September. I loved the people working there they even offered me iced cap. When I had my second tattoo last week they still gave me an iced cap. Wonderful people and they are all good artists. If you're looking for a cheap shop this is not it! But I can tell you they may be one of the best in Mississauga. You pay for your art so might as well invest in a good one

S K

Had been wanting to get a tattoo done for ages now, researched the best tattoo place in mississauga and playhouse came up. I walked in on Sunday and was lucky enough to get Ami as my tattoo artist. This being my first tattoo was very sentimental to me. Ami was very accommodating, she took her time to create exactly what I envisioned. As you can imagine I was a bit nervous for my first ever tattoo, Ami was very kind and patient she made me feel very relaxed throughout the whole process. For anyone looking to get there first tattoo done or any additional tattoos I definatly would reccomend Ami and Playhouse tattoos for making my first experience an exceptional one!

Angelina S.

I waited 2 years to get inked by Ami. I had initially contacted her pre-covid and she was great to communicate with via email, and then covid happened. She stayed in touch and kept all her existing and future clients up to date on her progress and status with the pandemic (since she was closed). Fast forward 2 years, my turn on the waiting list had come and booked the appointment for January 3. Met Ami for the first time (face to face, with masks of course), and she was a pleasure; friendly, very welcoming, very professional, explained the whole process from beginning to end (it was VERY informative), and always checked in periodically to make sure I was ready. After a bit of back and forth on the stencils (she was super patient), we finally got to ink'ing (is that a thing?). The pain was VERY minimal (but that also depends on the body part and your pain threshold), and Ami was very detailed and accurate. Fair warning: it is a little more cost wise than other places, but you do get what you pay for with regards to service, quality, and overall experience. PS: The Arrow is straight, it was my forearm was slightly twisted taking the photo.

Elizabeth scali

I had my first tattoo done by Jeniya the other day, I absolutely love the way it has turned out. From the moment I was in contact with her (almost a year ago due to covid) up until the day of my tattoo I had the best experience ever. From the initial design of my tattoo to the actual appointment I have 0 complaints. Everything was professional and super clean. During my tattoo I had other artists come up and talk with me and everyone was so friendly!! Jeniya has amazing skills and I hope I can soon get another tattoo from her and I highly recommend anyone to get a tattoo with her or any of the amazing artists at playhouse.

Rare’s World TV (#Raresworld)

Great experience, Andrea was easy to work with. She understood what I was trying to create with my custom tattoo. Made sure I was comfortable. Was very careful and took her time. Highly recommended.

maggie miller

I had my second tattoo done here and it was an amazing experience start to finish. Francis did my tattoo and he has amazing skills and is a great person to work with! The atmosphere of Playhouse is professional but really inviting and fun and everyone there was really nice. For anyone looking for a tattoo shop definitely look here! You won’t regret it.

Monique Fung

Had an amazing experience getting my tattoo with Ami - she was very detailed, amazing fine linework and lots of fun! Can't wait to get my next piece with her again!

Ashley

Yi is a great artist! Amazing talent to draw on paper and re-create the images onto skin. The shop is simple, one or two tattoo chairs, a veeeeery comfy couch for waiting on, or sleeping haha, and a pool table. Most tattoo shops I've been to play screamo music and have gory photos on the wall that scare people the second they walk in the door. Playhouse is a great environment, with excellent friendly staff! Got a tattoo done for my boyfriend & I, but I will definately go back to get more! Thanks Yi, Alula, Mary, and Michelle! ❤️

Amanda Diehl

I had a wonderful experience at Playhouse! Ami did a gorgeous line work piece for me today and I'm in love with how it turned out ???? Very clean and friendly environment! I'd highly recommended Ami and Playhouse to anyone.

Maya Jensen

Absolutely amazing experience at Playhouse Tattoo. Vince worked on my tattoo piece and it came out just how I wanted. Everyone was welcoming and the environment was fun and enjoyable. I truly enjoyed my experience and I’d like to thank the Playhouse team for making my dreams come true.

Jen Williams

I went to Playhouse to get a tattoo in memory of my Dad. Oliver helped me out and did the tattoo and it turned out better than I could have hoped. I love it. Oliver was very kind and patient and walked me through every step. I would definitely go there again. :)

Tatiana Franco

I had a great experience at Playhouse with Ami. From our first consult i loved her vibe and could tell she was the right one for my tattoo. Ami made sure i was comfortable during our 8 hour session and was great to talk to! She paid attention to detail and made sure everything was perfect! Im in love with my tattoo and will be back for sure. The rest of the staff was friendly and you could tell everyone loves what they do there! Thank you Ami and playhouse. Tatiana

Loveena Arora

I recently got a tattoo at playhouse tattoo studio. My tattoo artist - Francis Mendoza who is not only a very talented artist but also has an unmatchable sense of humor. It was my first tattoo and I was very nervous. Francis was very patient in designing the tattoo. To my surprise it wasn't a painful experience. I still dont believe i've gotten my first tattoo without having to go through the ordeal of pain and suffering. Already thinking of another tattoo. Thank you Francis!!!

Nolan Rego

Got my first tattoo here, and I love it. Everybody who works there is very friendly which makes the experience even more great! I highly recommend this place!

Jay Patel

Just got a tattoo from one of their artists. He was incredibly talented, detail oriented and really cared about getting the tattoo design right. Overall they were super professional, the studio was beautiful, and all around solid vibes. Definitely will be coming back in the future.

Zainab ZN

Did tattoo designing w/ Matthew and he’s pre chill and really welcoming, specially if you’re getting a tattoo for the first time; the staff won’t make you uncomfortable or anything. Really friendly staff :)) will definitely go again for another tattoo

Philip Zbozny

I LOVE PLAYHOUSE! I came to playhouse for my very first tattoo experience and the staff was super friendly, inviting and knowledgeable about everything I asked! My artist Wookjin was absolutely amazing. He was very receptive and made me feel comfortable to ask questions and work along side him on my tattoo design. I highly recommend Playhouse and/or Wookjin as your next tattoo artist if you want a phenomenal piece of body art to add to your collection! THANKS AGAIN!

sarah faulconbridge

Went back to Ami for a second time and she doesn't disappoint! She's quick and does a great job at turning my ideas into reality!! I'll keep coming back for more tattoos

Armel MacDonald

Really happy with Francis' work on my first tattoo! I'll definitely be back for more :)

Evita A

Every single employee was friendly and immediately outgoing, which really added to the atmosphere. I liked the shop layout, and they had great music (they even took song requests). I was really nervous going in, but felt welcome as soon as I walked in. Francis did my first ever tattoo, and made the experience memorable for me and my brother. He understood the sentiment behind my tattoo choice, and made me feel comfortable during the tattooing process. A 10/10 experience, and I will definitely go back in the future. Thank you again, Francis and Playhouse, for making me feel welcome!!!

Asiana Lee

By far the BEST tattoo parlour ive been to. The best customer service and the people make you feel so welcome! I was even offered drinks and directions home. Everything is very clean, unlike some other shops ive been to. Coming back for my next tats!

Jason Lin

Met the tattoo artist Yi and he was really helpful and nice. I explained to him what I wanted, a shoulder piece. He guided me through the steps on how long it was gonna take, and what to expect. The tattoo came out awesome. Overall I had a great experience and would definitely get another piece from playhouse tattoo.

Kaidoku_GG

Had my first appointment here a few days and it was excellent. The shop has a great feeling and atmosphere ;from the open concept to the style of art on the walls and area to bring a friend or a few with you. My appointment was with Matthew and I am not disappointed in the slightest by any part of the experience or art. His line work was spot on and was very professional during the entire time. Goegeous work, amazing people & a great studio 10/10 you will see me again soon guys!

Jake Deger

Francis did an amazing job. The place is very comfortable and relaxing. He cares about the art more than anything. 10/10

E B

Literally mid tattoo, 3rd visit. The tattoo looks awesome! The staff super friendly, and the ambiance unlike any tattoo parlor. Clean and welcoming. Highly recommend this shop. It is beyond anything I've experienced. Thank you and keep up the awesome work.

Brian Cropper

Everything you want in a tattoo experience will be found here. Great communication. Amazing artists. Chill studio vibe. Competitive price structure. Ami's skillset and attention to detail is well worth the wait. Highly recommend.

Smitty

Playhouse was amazing! Ami made my first tattoo experience very easy, and was always willing to work with my design to make sure I was always comfortable with it. The environment was very comfortable and lively; definitely going to recommend the artist and the shop to my friends!

Germaine Agustin

Got my first tattoo done by Ami and she did such an amazing job! She made the experience one to remember. She was very patient and made sure I was happy with what I envisioned the final results to be. I'm so in love with my tattoo. I would definitely recommend this tattoo shop and tattoo artist Ami.

Amanda Burke

one of the best experiences at a shop i've had so far. amazing people and amazing skill ❤

Vanessa Moraes

This was my first tattoo ever and I don't think I will ever go anywhere else. Ami was amazing throughout my experience here. She was patient while I took my time to decide and finalize my design and I she was done in 2 and a half hours. The entire team is friendly and fun-loving which makes the whole experience a lot more pleasant! I'm so happy with the final result and will be going in for my first free touch up in a month.

Cindy Cardoso

This was my first ever tattoo and My experience was a great one. Ami was professional but made me feel at ease. Thank you!!

ByTheBay

Just recently got my armband tattoo done from Francis. Ever seen how clean Drake’s lineup was on nothing was the same album? That’s how clean he did my lines and I couldn’t be more happier with the final results. Such an amazing atmosphere at the studio and having an outgoing & patient artist made my first tattoo experience perfect. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation!

Rafi

Worked with Wookjin at playhouse twice, very patient and skilled artist. Everyone else who works there is super chill, super welcoming environment. Highly recommend

Kevin Nguyen

Awesome experience with Matthew! Very professional and easy to work with. I gave him an idea of what I wanted and he created an awesome piece. The actual day of the tattoo was even better. The atmosphere at Playhouse was relaxing and fun. Everyone joked with each other and it felt like hanging with friends and family. Highly recommend! Can't wait to finish the piece. Thanks Playhouse!

Robert

Vince was amazing! He really took great care and made my first experience wonderful and kept me stress free for my first two tattoos! Thanks Vince see u in the fall for the third one

Joey Walker

I've been to several shops in the Toronto and GTA and I find that the staff here are amazing. Cool shop set up and very sanitary. Friendly and talented artists that will exceed your expectations! Definitely coming back to see Ami again for my next tattoo. Also, Yi has a wicked Spotify playlist for those long sessions!

J C

Incredibly talented artists, dope space & overall pleasant experience. I had Wookjin who did an amazing job (and this was his first intricate piece). Thank you playhouse!

Anyka L

Honestly, I can’t even begin to describe how incredible my experience was at Playhouse. I got my first ever tattoos done with the amazingly talented Ami. From walking into the funny atmosphere, through an awesome playlist and into Ami’s care, I felt welcomed and excited to get my tattoo. Ami listened to every picky thought or suggestion I had and created something beyond beautiful and meaningful for me. So much so, that when Ami was done, I could only convey that I loved it so much with a hug. Definitely would recommend these insanely talented artists (especially Ami)!! I don’t know when, but Ill totally be coming back Ami! Thanks again :)

Quincy A

Had an amazing experience with Matthew T of Playhouse Tattoo Studio. He went over the outline of what I wanted, made sure I was comfortable and payed attention to when I needed to take a break in between,. Matthew knows his craft like the back of his hand, probably because he has tattoos there. If you want someone to work with your creative wishes, look no further than Matthew T.

Kelvin

Great experience, shop is looks terrific, artist is exceptional and highly talented. Would 100% recommend going here for your first, second, third or all your tattoos :)

mL

I was very impressed and pleased with my experience at Playhouse Tattoo Studio. Wookjin did a beautiful floral piece for me that I am so incredibly happy with. I will definitely be coming back for another piece. My friend also had a tattoo with Matthew that she is super happy with. Would definitely recommend to anyone whether it's your first time or the next time around. All the artists have stunning portfolios. The studio is really clean and bright, with lots of original artwork, a really great vibe. A++.

shabana zafar

i’ve been to playhouse several times and the customer service has been exceptional each time. the artists and staff really try to make everyone feel welcome and that changes the entire atmosphere of your experience. i got two small words tatted on my wrist by ami, and she absolutely nailed it. ami is an amazing artist and super easy to talk to, so i felt comfortable before, during and after the session. she also pays attention to the details and is really precise with her work. will definitely be back (:

Julie Ambrose

My daughter and I dropped in for tattoos after her friend recommended going here (my first tatoo). Abby was awesome, made us feel comfortable right away, was very thorough and professional as were the rest of the team. A very nice creative vibe in a clean but cool atmosphere. I’m 57 my daughter 23 & yet we were both happy with our tattoos & the experience! Great job Abby

Adam Brethour

Professional and Sanitary. Great music and awesome staff. I had to try and hold my laughter back will getting the tattoo. Getting my next tattoo there 100%

Vetra

Quality. Atmosphere. Attention to detail. Clean. Great vibes. This is the tattoo shop to go to for quality work & great connections. I’ve known the team for a little over a year & their attitude is what ties it all together. They know how to cultivate a space where you’ll be running back, and not for the tattoos. It’s a family of creatives! The environment exudes all expectations of a tattoo parlour: - clean - professional - friendly - service oriented * (they dive beyond the physical tattoo, but the story you want to create) - artwork galore They know what they’re doing, go ahead and book a complimentary consultation. It doesn’t hurt to understand better what you want & the artwork that’s on you forever.

Sim Dillon

Ami was amazing! Her line work is unreal! Definitely would recommend her and I will be going back to her for my future tattoos! :)

kat s

The artist I had was Ami and she made my first appointment an absolute dream. She was very pleasant and accommodating on top of being a wonderful artist, and I can't wait to book another with her. The studio itself was really visually dynamic and enticing, and the energy was great. Highly recommend Playhouse!

Sarah Sam

Ami was amazing! Her work and professionalism is unmatched. I'm so glad I waited to have her do my tattoos!

Nicola Maldeniya

I LOVE this place. A very friendly vibe and awesome artists. I have been here twice and have not been disappointed. Both Wookjin (lion with rose) & Ami (single rose) are fantastic realism artists. I will be returning to Ami after they open up to get more work done ????

Maddie Cee

After many calls and rejections from other tattoo parlours, Francis picked up the phone and gladly accepted to take four walk-ins on a Monday night. As my first tattoo artist I ever had, Frank did an outstanding job. I do not regret my first tattoo at all, he was very gentle and humorous which is why I had to come back for a second tattoo! Andddddd probably several more!

Rachel Budden

Ami is an amazing Tattooist that makes you feel comfortable during the whole process. Her fine lines and attention to detail are off the charts. I am so impressed with her work. I got 2 done a couple of weeks ago, one being a pink ribbon for my mom who is fighting breast cancer and my mom cried when she saw it. Ami and I have already discussed my next tattoo and I seeing all the fine lines and attention to detail this one will need, I wouldn't trust anyone else with it but her!

Riddhima Chandani

Francis is such a great human being and a fantastic artist! It was such a pleasure to get my tattoos from him. He gives each tattoo such a personal touch & understands that the art is more than just a tattoo for some of his customers. I got a tattoo for my little pet. All I had to do is provide Francis with a concept & a picture of my pet and he made the design look exactly like my little furbaby. His work is neat, his hand is very light and his conversations are out of the world! THANK YOU so much Francis & Playhouse Tattoos for the most amazing experience & the most precious art that I will be with me for the rest of my life!

Ryan Spurr

Went to Playhouse to add on to an existing piece and to complete it. My artist was Ami and she was fantastic through the whole process. From the initial design to the modifications we made the day of she was thoughtful and kind. Her attention to detail was very impressive and the final product was well worth the investment. The studio itself was very clean and most importantly, friendly. Every artist in there made a point to make you feel welcome, especially Francis. I’m looking forward to our next session!

Melissa Grassa

I had my appointment with Jeniya and she was fab!!! She was very thorough, patient and did a beautiful job.

J O

Overall great environment at the shop, really neat vibe! Recently got a tattoo done on my arm by Francis. Francis did an excellent job, I’m really pleased with the work! If you’re looking to get a quality tattoo while having an overall great experience; I would recommend this shop and going to see Francis 100%!

Mike O'Connell

Have had a few tattoos done and Playhouse was by far my best experience. MY Artist Roxanne was awesome, very talented young lady and I highly recommend her. The whole staff were so nice and the Studio is so clean. Thanks for an awesome tattoo and a great experience. Will definitely be back for more.

Jasmine Soriano

I just finished my second session with Matthew. His work is amazing. His line work and detail is perfect. I highly recommend him to everyone that I know. I can't wait until my piece is done.

Chong Su Cheng

Got my very first tatt done by Oliver who was an amazing artist! He was very professional and made it a truly enjoyable process. I’d 100% recommend him to my friends in future!

Jin Lee

Jeniya was amazingg and accommodating as I changed the design multiple times throughout the process but she was patient with me and the detail in her work was beyond words !

Sarah Moodey

Ami made mine and my mother's first tattoo experiences so meaningful and fun! The studio is very nice, with incredibly pleasant staff, will be coming back for more !

Varsha Verghese

Francis did two of my tattoos and he was amazing! Such precision and detail. He was also hilarious and made the experience that much better! Not to mention all of the other tattoo artists were super friendly and funny! 11/10 would recommend and I’m definitely going back soon for another tattoo!

Naz Salahova

Francis was my artist and he drew a world map on my small and skinny wrist very masterfully. It is super gentle but yet the details are there. I came up with an idea but he took the time to do the research and find the right fit. The place was also clean with all the comforts and team was professional. Definitely recommending Francis.

Carly Lawrie

Such a nice shop and the vibe is great ! I got a word tattoo from Vincent and he was so friendly and very professional. I would highly recommend him if you want a word tattoo. It ended up looking exactly how I wanted, and we had a nice chat during the process. Will definitely be coming back in the future. Thank you !!

Qais Sahel

Got my first with Jeniya, would highly recommend. She's patient and diligent with her work.

Patrick Chrapkiewicz

Accommodating and reasonable. Decent customer service. Shop minimums are on par with other tattoo parlours in the area. Amy does great line work!

Amanda

Just got the most amazing tattoo here. I completely recommend this place. Ami is amazing, she did a great job bringing together what I was looking for. Also everyone was really nice and super chill. Great atmosphere. Already looking forward to getting my next tattoo with Ami.

Harry Thakur

Playhouse tattoo in my opinion is the best tattoo shop. From the second I walked into the shop, the vibe, the talent, the family environment was extra ordinary. I was recommended to the shop by a friend and I could not be happy with the service here. All the staff is super friendly, feels like you’re simply just hanging out with friends and family. I had the pleasure to work with Francis and his work is unbelievable and very detailed. I came in for a consult and Francis immediately got to work. I ended up not getting 1 tattoo but 3 under 2 weeks period. If you’re looking for talented artists and excellent customer service in a fun friendly environment, playhouse is the way to go. ????????

Mark Newman

My daughter went in yesterday. Showed a simple design. Two stick flowers and a word. No shading, no color about 1 1/2" x 2". Told them she wanted 2, one for her and one for her Mom who would be coming with her. She was told the minimum charge is $150 so it would be $300. She made an appointment for the next day for 1:00. They were the first two there when they opened at 1:00. No one saw to them until 1:30 after the staff had finished eating and chatting. Each tattoo took about 10-15 minutes. When it came time to pay suddenly the bill was $440!!! My daughter was real embarrassed. This was to be a present for her Mom and she didn't have enough money. Then the guy asks her for her Instagram!! Not cool. Tears after she left. I would have to recommend avoiding this place.

Hamza Shubbar

Amazing first experience, Francis did an amazing job helping me with the design and his art is phenomenal. Everyone at the shop was incredibly friendly and made me feel like i was hanging out with my friends. I highly recommend getting a tattoo here, you’ll never regret it

Jennifer Nguyen-Do

Matt did my first big piece and designed me an original second piece. Can't wait to finish my half sleeve. I'd highly recommend his work.

Fay B

I recommend Playhouse to anyone that asks for where they should get a tattoo. The staff make you feel safe, comfortable and like you are the priority. I had the absolute pleasure of being tattooed by Francis. He is so wildly talented at tattooing and has the lightest touch. Having him as an artist is not like any other, it's better. It felt like we were hanging out and at the end I got to walk away with a beautiful piece of art on my body. Amazing work! Thank you!

Tatyana Melo

Today i got my very first tattoo done at Playhouse Tattoo Studio! Front desk & other tattoo artists were super cool and friendly. Ami did my tattoo, she is the sweetest, made me feel comfortable and made sure everything was exactly as i wanted it. On top of all that greatness the studio was very clean, played dope music & since my shirt was half off as i had a rib piece done Ami made me feel comfortable by closing the curtains and made the space nice and private! If you are looking for fine line tattoos hit up Ami for high quality work! Any other tattoos hit up this studio because you won’t regret it! ❤️ P.S. i am in love with my tattoo I cannot stop staring at it!

Up and coming tattoo shop in Mississauga! This place is looking to becoming the best tattoo spot in Mississauga. I got my experience first hand, and its safe to say that this place is committed to give everyone amazing tattoos. Looking forward to getting my sleeve, and future tattoos here.

Kiana Parsaie

This studio is absolutely amazing as well as all the staff. About a month ago Ami did a tattoo for me and I love it. She did great at knocking it out in one long session because of my schedule. Since I was out of the country until my actual appointment Ami was great at keeping in contact with me and sending me updates. I can't wait to get another tattoo here in the future.

Kimberly Boulge

Had a great experience at Playhouse, with all the artists being so nice! Have had many of my tattoos done at Playhouse, with my recent two done by Ami. She was great to work with, and did an amazing job!

Melis Mevlutoglu

I went to get two tattoos with my friends yesterday. The artists were very accommodating with taking us as walk-ins. Arty was our tattoo artist, he was very patient and ensured we were completely satisfied with our pieces. The vibes of this …

Rayne Jones

Super friendly! They welcome you into their tattoo shop family right away. They dedicated their playlist to me, super talented and go with the flow kind of people, definitely would recommend!!!

peter li

These guys are the real deal. Went in with a crazy photorealistic tattoo concept and Yi managed to blow my expectations through the roof. He drew it better than I could have ever imagined it. I thought he was a bit pricey at first but by the end, I couldn't have been any happier with the work and it became very clear where my money was going! Currently saving up to get my next piece from them. Would highly recommend to anybody who values craftsmanship and artistry.

Jeff Schultz

Fantastic staff. Really great vibes. If you are looking to get your first or next tattoo, this is the place to go.

Maddy S

My mom just got her second tattoo from Francis at Playhouse Tattoo and has said this: Based on my research of ink shops - I booked an appt. last year with Francis to get a tattoo my leg. He could not have been nicer and made me feel very comfortable. He was professional, kind and his work was spectacular. Exactly what I wanted. The shop is impeccable and everyone is very approachable. I went back today, to have my 2 grandson's names added to my other leg. Francis remembered me and it was like seeing a long lost friend. I was more than pleased with the end result; clean lines, no pain. I would highly recommend Francis.

Hani Greiss

Leah managed to truly replicate my design with her amazing fine line work! This is my first Tattoo and I was concerned that my design would not end up as detailed for the size I selected. Leah helped me pick a perfect size to show off the details without being too conspicuous. Her professional yet friendly attitude put me at ease while her precision and fidelity to my original design exceeded my expectations!

Ronda Robinson

Working with Ami was an incredibly easy and fun process! She was extremely communicative and professional before, during, and after the session, providing details on creative choices while giving me space to discuss what I wanted. The outcome of my piece for my parents (pictured immediately after) was even better than I could imagine. Thank you so much again for your kindness and amazing work! ❤️

Nasim P

Have 3 tattoos done by Oliver and I highly recommend him! He has a very light hand compared to some other tattoo artists which makes the whole experience much less painful. He is very respectful and takes his time with the tattoos to make sure they look as good as possible. Everyone else at the shop is also very friendly and the shop is a very friendly relaxed environment. I will be coming back very soon! And I highly recommend!

Germaine Agustin

Got my first tattoo done by Ami and she did such an amazing job! She made the experience one to remember. She was very patient and made sure I was happy with what I envisioned the final results to be. I'm so in love with my tattoo. I would definitely recommend this tattoo shop and tattoo artist Ami.

Marin Goodwin

I went searching for a tattoo artist who excelled in fine lines and small details, and I knew I struck gold when I discovered Ami. Her portfolio is simply gorgeous, and quite remarkable considering how talented she is at such a young age. I have high functioning anxiety and was incredibly nervous on the day of my tattoo but Ami made me feel more than comfortable and helped me find a confidence I didn't even know I had. The entire process was an absolute breeze - from reaching out and planning a design, to agreeing upon a final drawing, to actually getting the work done. For anyone looking for a fine line artist with a light touch, Ami is absolutely your girl. She is professional, charming, easy going, and an absolute delight to spend time with. The entire atmosphere at Playhouse was overall very welcoming and made me feel incredibly comfortable despite my obvious nerves. I could not be happier with the final product that is my new tattoo, and would absolutely recommend Ami to anyone and everyone.

Jess Tran

I had my tattoo done by Matthew. The atmosphere of the tattoo shop is very welcoming and comfortable. Matthew is able to listen to my ideas and create a piece for me the way I had envisioned it. He is careful and tedious with his work. I highly recommend Matthew to others to get a tattoo done by him.

Santosh Vijayakumar

Francis was amazing to work with right from our first design session meeting. He lostened to all my ideas and made it a completely collaborative process. He designed my complex idea easily and on the day of, he patiently tattooed the whole thing through the course of the day! He tirelessly kept adding more and more detailing and made my surrealist tattoo really pop oit! 10/10 would recommend to anybody!

Anupama Sharma

Very professional service. Oliver was very patient and helpful while designing the tattoo. The tattoo itself looks beautiful and just like I expected. The place is clean. Everyone is friendly and nice. I would definitely recommend this place.

Hope Giangrande

I have recently had a tattoo done with Matthew and hands down I was incredibly impressed! Both the shop and people in it gave such a great vibe and really made it an awesome experience! This week I brought my mom in for a tattoo as well by Matthew and once again, absolutely no complaints! great people, great shop, not to mention the tattoos turned out amazing! Would definitely recommend!

victoria brown

I got my first tattoo done by Francis (who is super fun and amazingly skilled) and him and the other artists in the shop made the experience super fun and also comfortable. The studio is very well kept and run very well during this pandemic. Francis also was very helpful with all my questions before, during and after the tattoo appointment. I would highly recommend getting your first/next tattoo at playhouse!

Barb Collins

Great vibes thru the whole shop, everyone is helpful and friendly. Took my son in for his first tattoo (under 18) with Leah and she was amazing with him and the quality was 100%. I came back two days later to get my own small one with Leah and she was able to add my ideas to the tattoo and make it what I wanted. Would recommend this shop 100%

reuel castellano

amazing place great people. At first i was bit scared to get my first tattoo but thanks to fancis he was amazing i did not regret my first tattoo and i would love getting more it was a great experience and its a great crew. i highly recommend francis ???? shoutout to fransis thanks bro????????

Yuti Patel

Had a great experience with my tattoo by Ami. Ami is really sweet and very patient. Even during covid the safety measures are in place and the process is seem less. The staff is extremely skilled, professional and the atmosphere comfortable. Highly recommended to anyone looking to get a quality tattoo first or 100th!!

Peri Flores

My family and I went there a couple days ago to get matching tattoos, it was such a great experience! It was very professional and they made us feel very welcome! Amazing tattoos, we love them. Thank you Ami :)

Amanda Couto

Playhouse is absolutely amazing and has the most talented team of artists! I had gotten a tattoo done by Jordan in May and just went for my touch up, he did such an incredible job. I am so happy with my tattoo that I’m already planning my next one! Such a great group of people, they make everyone feel so welcome. I happened to be there on my birthday, and Francis also happened to be working. You better believe he got the entire shop to sing happy birthday to me! Keep killing it you guys!

G C

Jeniya is awesome! She took the time to make sure mine and my friend's matching tattoos were perfect! She has the most gentle touch as well, my least painful tattoo ever!!! Thanks so much to Playhouse and Jeniya!!!

Eshwyn Makkar

Playhouse Tattoo Studio is awesome! Great people, chill vibes, and the tattoo artists are amazing. My artist Francis, was perfection.

Janki Desai

Playhouse Tattoos was AMAZING. My sister and I have always wanted to get a tattoo and we spent so much time searching for the right place because this was our first time. We had taken a chance on Playhouse Tattoos as our first tattoo place to go to, and the experience was AMAZING. Our tattoo artist was Ami, and she was so great. She took her time to make sure that what we both wanted was exactly the way we wanted it. She made sure that we had the right size and shape and that we were certain about our tattoos, she was patient and super friendly. She did an amazing job with my tattoo and she was really patient with me, as some parts of my arm was a bit painful. Ami was gentle and calm, she had also made sure that she sterilized everything before I was next for my tattoo, making sure that everything was clean and ready to. The overall experience and environment of Playhouse Tattoos was so relaxing and fun. The entire staff was so friendly and they all really take care of their tattoo studio. Everything was organized and clean. It was like we already knew everyone there and it was our first time, we instantly bonded and made friends with the stuff especially Ami. I highly recommend Playhouse Tattoos to all my family and friends and I definitely recommend that people check out Ami. Ami was just amazing! Thanks Ami and the rest of the Playhouse Tattoo family, it was an awesome experience!(:

Isabella Arboleda

Extremely friendly & down to earth!! Patient with each client, very clean & organized! They have a pool table for any waiting clients to use & an aux cord to play your favourite tracks. They even gave me an ointment to use for my tattoo. Ive been to 3 other tattoo parlours & none of them gave me an ointment, I had to go out & buy one. If I could give more than 5 stars for Playhouse, I definately would!

Cheyenne Wells

My husband and I went yesterday evening to get a very special tattoo for him for his mom. Francis was our artist and he was amazing!!! He has a real attention to detail, patience, and so so kind. He made such a special piece for Ryan, and made the experience awesome. We were so relaxed and really did have a good time. Everyone in the shop is like family and go above and beyond to make sure you are happy and comfortable! We will both be coming back soon for some more ink. Thank you Francis for the great customer service, experience, and of course the tattoos you did for us! We really couldn’t be happier !! :)

Cindy Tran

Really glad my friend recommended this place! Both times I came by (first time to book my appointment and second time for the actual appointment) I felt very comfortable as the staff is super friendly and welcoming. Not to mention they have a really cute cat !! The artists there are really talented. Though my tattoo was done by Mary, I've seen Yi's work for many of my friends and their tattoos look gorgeous too. Based on my experience with Mary, she is really patient and takes her time to make sure that you are getting what you want! She's very precise with her work and my tattoo turned out beautiful. I've gotten many compliments from friends & family. Tons of people have asked me where I went to get it done too! Will be back in the future & will definitely recommend Playhouse Tattoo Studio to everyone I know.

Jonny Karl

Everything was amazing , francis is an amazing artist and even better person , everyone made me feel welcome and part of the family. Can’t express how much I’m in love with my tattoo and the experience was on par with the best of the best. 1000% will be coming back for all my pieces and will be recommending to all my friends and family to come here

Nic Belanger

Amazing staff and awesome work Francis did an amazing job, highly recommend

Lian Lo

I went in to get a double lobe piercing on both ears. We went in to see the place first and my mom emailed back and forth with them since she likes having a lot of details. The staff are very friendly and the environment of the shop is great. Everyone smiles at you and makes sure you are comfortable. It's also very clean and doesn't look like most tattoo shops, there's art all around and it looks very nice inside. After receiving the piercing, I realized I wanted it a bit further apart on the right side. I called and Abi was very kind and told me she would repierce it free of charge. Overall playhouse is a great studio with friendly people and I have had a great experience. I would highly recommend them.

Andie Z

I got my first tattoo yesterday and I already want to go back for more. From the very beginning I received prompt and thorough responses to all my emails and questions. On the day of I came in with my husband and toddler and we were all welcomed and made to feel comfortable right away. Francis was awesome to work with, he is funny and so laid back it made me feel at ease right away. He worked meticulously with my husband, who designed the tattoo, to make sure everything was perfect. Honestly it was one of the least painful experiences ever, and it looks awesome already after 24 hours, even though I am not usually the best healer. Thanks to Francis and the Playhouse team for making my first experience go so smoothly. Highly recommend!

Jessica Parkinson

Got my tattoo done by Ami! She did an amazing job & i will definitely be back to get more work done! The shop is clean, professional and has a great vibe!

Carmen Galea

Went in with a friend for her appointment with Francis, he also squeezed me in for a small finger tattoo! He went out of his way to make our experience there amazing! His attention to detail in his art made both tattoos turn out even better than we imagined! 10/10 will go back to Francis at Playhouse!

Arzeen Farzadi

Loved my experience here. The staff are super professional and Yi Wu does a great job of making you feel comfortable. I was really happy with how Yi redesigned my tattoo and made it better than what I brought in. Really talented staff and would definitely go back :)

Mohit Veoli

Had booked a session months in advance (with paid deposit) only to be told two weeks before that the artist will not be available and we are not sure when he will be back.

Justin Timbol

They made my first tattoo a great time! Everyone was fun, very welcoming, and made me feel comfortable. A whole lot of talent in that shop; Jeniya did a perfect job with my tattoo, and the planning process was a breeze!

radha joshi

I had my very first tattoo done a few days ago by Jeniya. I was very nervous to get it done, however Jeniya made me feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire process! She did an amazing job and did exactly what I wanted..I'm so happy with my tattoo and would definitely go back again!

S Pikl

If tattoos are in your future, get in touch with Oliver at Playhouse Tattoo Studio! Every step of the process, from the sign in to image design to the final care suggestions, was expertly done! As was the tattoo! Oliver makes sure you have various sizing options and chats like an old friend along the way. I'll certainly be going to him for my next tattoo. Tattoo places can be intimidating, but Playhouse is not. It's playful, professional, and there's a solid soundtrack in the background.

Thais Johnston

Got my tattoo done by AMI and she definitely exceeded all my expectations. She is so talented and deserves nothing less than 5 stars. P.s ...Her line work is real fire...

Monique Chestney

AMAZING! Matthew did my tattoo and his work is fantastic, definitely will be going back! The whole vibe including the improv singing made the whole experience that much more enjoyable!!! thanks for the laughs!

Jeremy Anderson

I love you Francis

Ryan Moore

Great Place. Very clean, the take pride in cleanliness and hygiene. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. Highly recommend the artist Matthew Tran. It was my first tattoo and he took the time to go through the design I wanted and even added some of his own artistic flare. Attention to detail was amazing. He was very professional and helped make it an amazing experience and for my first tattoo that was much needed. Would recommend this place to anyone reading. Matt definitely earned these five stars and I will be going back again and again to finish the half sleeve tattoo and eventually get others. Thanks Matt.

Kevin B

I was a little nervous, this being my first tattoo, but the best thing I did for it was trusting Wookjin at Playhouse Tattoos. He did an absolutely amazing job! People have stopped to compliment me on my tattoo, even people who don't usually like tattoos at all. It's because of the artistry; from the textured mountains and tone of the dragon, to the captivating silhouette and stars beyond it - people love it. But more importantly, I love it. There was something incredibly special and satisfying about being able to design the tattoo alongside Wookjin, as he included me in all parts of the process; implementing what I wanted, but also suggesting some of his own creative ideas that really helped make my tattoo come alive. During the actual tattooing, Wookjin displayed a level of concentration and attention to detail that only someone whose passionate about their craft can do. The idea behind my tattoo is very personal, and I couldn't be happier with the artistry that Wookjin used to give that idea life. .

Steven Rana

From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave you’ll feel the love and family atmosphere at playhouse. I’ve been to a lot of shops but nothing compares to the vibe you get at playhouse! All the artists are amazing, I’ve been tattooed by most of them! If you’re looking for something small or a big piece you’ll be in the right hands at this shop! So many different styles and I love how they take the time and sit down with you and you create something together. Jordan has done a lot of work on me and I couldn’t be happier! His realism pieces are amazing! He takes his time to create something you’ll love forever. He’s such a talented artist and Would highly recommend him! It’s been a pleasure getting to know him and I’ll be back under the needle getting more work done shortly! To everyone at playhouse, thank you for the experiences and thank you for making me feel like family love you all!

Derek Smith

Went here to have my second tattoo done together with my sister's first. Wookjin was the artist that completed our pieces, and we are really happy with how they turned out. We had a general idea of what we wanted, and he put a good amount of time and effort to incorporate our ideas into the style. The price was more than reasonable for the quality of workmanship, and there were no surprises on cost. Shop had a very cool atmosphere, and from what I saw of the other artists, they all have remarkable talent. I definitely plan on returning here for future tattoos and am excited to see what else Wookjin will design.

Priyanka Desai

My sister and I decided to get inked by Ami at Playhouse for our first tattoos! Despite spending over 30mins on our initial consult asking Ami to rotate, flip, resize, shade and tweak our designs, she was patient and always encouraging of our ideas throughout the appt! As I was new to tattooing, I was like most, beyond nervous on the day of our tattoo appointment. However, all such was forgotten when I sat down on Ami’s bench. Not only did Ami treat us like friends rather than clients which was conductive in relieving my nerves, but the entire playhouse family jumped in to alleviate any stress or pressure I felt as well! All the while I was being tatted, the playhouse team kept me laughing, entertained and most of all pleasantly distracted! In addition to this, Ami was more than willing to ink at my pace+pain tolerance, while providing her killer watt smile, which could ease even the tensest of nerves of a first timer! In terms of safety, the studio was clean, organized and Ami was diligent in wiping down benches/equipment and using new sterile materials every time! However, despite all that I’ve written, it does not even begin to scratch the surface in describing how lovely the playhouse staff is, and what an incredible job Ami did on our tats! Her light touch and artistry exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with the final results! I can confidently say that I will be recommending Playhouse to all my friends+family, as well as coming back to complete a long list of tattoos with Ami in the future! Thanks Ami + Playhouse! <3

Mello Taylor

Walked into a welcoming environment and was instantly greeted with big smiles; the atmosphere has a very comfortable vibe and takes the edge off any second thoughts that come with getting a tattoo. The artist is very talented with experience and skill - definitely recommend to anyone especially first timers

Denise Brodie

My whole experience with this studio was exceptional! They are closely following all of the Covid protocols from screening clients, collecting contact tracing info, hand sanitizing, mask wearing etc as well as all of the usual health and safety protocols. The studio itself is clean and spacious with an artistic flare. The artists themselves are very friendly and supportive of each other. As I was at the studio for the better part of 7 hours, I was able to observe another artist (Jordan) doing a portrait for his client and it turned out fantastic!! My artist is Francis. He is a great guy who is very creative and so willing to do anything you ask of him. Our design consult went very well and I felt that he really heard what I was asking for. He shared some of his ideas and the collaboration turn out so well. The tattoo that Francis gave me surpassed my hopes and is in fact stunning!!! Actually, it is on the same arm as a previous piece I had done only a few years ago that I was satisfied with. Now however, when you see the piece that Francis did and the previous piece at the same time you can’t help but see the huge difference in quality- Francis has spoiled me for any other artist. This was not my 1st tattoo so I have had a variety of other artist do work for me but with Francis and Play House I have now found the only studio and artist I will be using going forward. I can not possibly say enough good things about Play House, their artists and especially Francis. He is now the artist I highly recommend. - even to my own daughter.

Kristianne Najera

Great staff, very welcoming and friendly. Got my work done by Matthew and it was a comfortable experience from start to finish, as I was very anxious. He did a phenomenal job on my realism rose tattoo and I definitely plan on coming back for more. If anyone is looking to get roses or Asian style tattoos, look no further! Matthew is awesome

gabriel goncalves

I had a great time at Playhouse with Ami. Her work is fantastic and I couldn't be happier with the result. I can't wait to book again.

Samuel Mendonça

Amazing and professional staff. Very clean shop. I recommend that you get your tattoo from Ami! One of the best at playhouse!

damien selva

I had 2 separate pieces done by Ami.... one of them was a realism piece while the other was scripture. She did amazing on both and could not be any happier of how they turned out. I’ve decided that my whole sleeve is going to be completed by her. As well, she will give you her truthful professional opinion on the structure and layout of pieces that will only make the end product so much better...which I find rare in most other artists and her line work is always on point. I recommend to anyone who just wants a dope piece of art on their body.

amy stasiuk

I just had a tattoo done by the lovely artist, Jenyia. Jenyia was very accommodating and personable throughout the whole process; from the initial design session right through to the end of my first appt/experience at Playhouse. She took an idea I gave her and created an amazing piece of artwork. Her line work is perfect, and delicate and I am so happy with the result. It is exactly what I wanted. Thank You so much Jeniya. I'll be back soon ????????

Lynn

Highly recommend this place. I got my 2nd tattoo today and Matthew was my artirst. He agreed to come in ealier 1 hour and did such a great job. I really like my tattoo and will come back for my next tattoo in the future :)

Davis Pelletier

Highly recommend this shop, artists are all amazing! Francis does my girlfriends work, it’s always amazing! Jordan and Vince have done mine (so far) and they’re both amazing!! Will likely get more pieces by different artists at playhouse!! Really warm family like atmosphere! Always love coming to the shop! Great work, done by even better people!! Definitely going there for MANY more tattoos!! My

Ashley Slater

Playhouse has exceeded my expectations, it's clean, fun, and everyone is so friendly! This is my second tattoo I have gotten done by Ami and let me just say she is AMAZING! Ami is detailed and gentle and just overall talented, I gave her my idea of what I wanted done and she created something so beautiful. She took her time to make sure the stencil was placed correctly and that the size was right, her line work is just beyond perfect... I'm beyond happy with the results of her work. I will definitely continue to go to Ami and I would 100% recommend Playhouse Tattoo Studio to anyone!

D Zrelec

Had great time with Francis and got two perfect tattoos.

k pel

I recently had a tattoo done by Jeniya, she was amazing! Her work is very detailed and she is a very talented artist. The other artists were super friendly and the studio is very well kept and clean!

Harpreet Kaur

Playhouse tattoo, the best place to get inked.Got my 3 tattoo’s from here. A professional place with friendly touch. Matthew Tran (Matt) is totally awesome, he did superb job!! He took the time to listen to what I had in my mind and came with a lovely design. My 3rd tattoo is beautiful. Special THANKS to “MATT”

Leigh Anne Bell

Francis did my tattoo as well as 2 tattoos on my girlfriend, not only was he am amazing artist but he has the most gentle hand. 10/10 recommend him and Playhouse. Clean and friendly all the way around. Amazing vibes. ❤

Miranda Winters-Sayle

I went to Playhouse for the first time as moral support for a friend and was so impressed with the quality of the studio and friendliness of the staff that I booked an appointment of my own. Jordan made sure that the portrait of my fur-baby was right down to the smallest details. Had a great time, and will definitely be back for more in the future!

V Nguyen

Best tattoo shop in Mississauga. Got my first tattoo done by Vince back in 2019. The atmosphere here is very chill and just good vibes all around. Also a lot of talented artists here. If you live in Mississauga, and looking to get a tattoo, check out the artists here. You'll foresure find one!

Jason Caines

I got a tattoo cover up done by Francis (8.5 hour session). I can’t say enough about Playhouse, they are very professional and clean. My tattoo looks incredible and I couldn’t be happier. The extra steps they are taking during this pandemic are above and beyond, making sure everyone is safe. I would highly recommend Playhouse to anyone looking to get a tattoo, they make you feel comfortable the entire time. Look forward to getting more tattoos done in the future. Thanks again to Francis and everyone in the shop.

Srishti Sheoran

Amazing vibe , came in spoke to Kristen and immediately she was just super chill and informative. Got an appointment with Vince and he was super patient with our design creativity and had great input. Overall, very sanitary and a great time and place especially for my first tattoo. <3

S Sheikh

GOT MY TATTOO ADDITION FROM AMI, who was extremely talented and provided helpful and super creative service she completed my tattoo on my arm that will forever be mine and I will forever be thankful to her! Thanks playhouse xo

Tanmay Deotale

This studio is absolutely amazing! Got my first tattoo here and it was a great experience. I’ve gotten many tattoos since and I’ve never wanted to go anywhere else. I absolutely love Ami’s work. ????

Brandon Marion

Francis is the man! He hooked me up with a dope tattoo for my first, when he did my tat he had only been tattooing for 8 months, but it looks more like 8 years! The lines are perfect and crisp after healing, the shading is picture perfect and everyone who has seen my tattoo ask my where I got it from. I couldn’t recommend getting a tattoo from him anymore, super cool dude, really funny and a great artist. I’ll be getting a second piece from him soon

Brittany Semplonius

So pleased with the service! The environment is great- chill, relaxed, creative, and very design based. The space is very artistic- from the music to the gallery style canvases on the wall. The staff is very friendly. The tattoo artist that I had, Francis, went above and beyond. Super patient and talented. I am really impressed with his line work and his passion for tatting. He really puts his heart into his work.

Simryn Parmar

Awesome place with awesome people! It's clean and they let you play your own music while you're there which is pretty cool. Everyone is so nice and friendly. I had Mary and she was great! She even checked in on me a few days later to see how my tattoo was healing! It was a little out of the way for me but totally worth it!

Suzanne Trieu

Yiwu is a great artist! He made the whole process easy and accommodating. I previously had a tattoo done elsewhere and was not happy with it from the beginning, so I was looking for a cover up. I came across Yiwu's instagram and then googled it as well only to find amazing reviews! I decided to book my consultation with him and it literally took 10 mins to figure out how I can cover up my tattoo. From there, we booked an appointment a week later to have it done! I am so happy with the cover up and have been getting many compliments. The staff at Playhouse are so nice and welcoming :) Def recommend getting a tatt done here!!

Brendon Seepaulsing

Amazing experience and awesome artist. I got a rose piece done by Matthew and was so happy with the results. Matthew was very informative and helpful with the whole tattoo process. I recommend anyone who is looking to get a high quality tattoo to go see him! Very creative, talented, and professional. Perfect artist for anyone getting their first tattoo. I know I will be back to get more work done with him in the future.

Andrea Kimmel

I can't say enough about how great my experience was at Playhouse. It's a beautiful new studio, with talented, knowledgeable, friendly staff, and state-of-the-art equipment. I went specifically for Ami through a friend's recommendation and she is simply a gem. I'm so happy with my tattoo and I'm even happier that I was able to sit down with her and be engaged in the process of creating exactly what I wanted for my first tattoo. I was a bit apprehensive (I waited longer than most for my first), but she put me completely at ease. I'm absolutely in love with my tattoo -- the first comment anybody makes is about the intricate detail. Ami is an artist at heart and a meticulous one at that -- I would recommend her without hesitation. Also, there's been zero issues with my healing process. It's been a week and a half and I've already finished peeling (which was fairly minimal). I'll definitely be back!

Dave Catarino

Thank you Ami, your patience, kindness your eye for detail was remarkable. For my first tattoo I couldn’t of asked for a better experience. Thank you I love it and already getting comments on how beautiful your art work is and already referring people your way ???? until we meet again !!

Marina S

Wookjin at the Playhouse is an amazing tattoo artist, highly recommend. I had a specific idea in mind and he did exactly what i wanted without trying to change it. He pays immense attention to detail in tattoos and definitely perfects his craft! I 100% trusted him with my first tattoo and was very gentle and made sure I was comfortable at all times. Me and my friend went together and he did both of ours, we’re very happy with the outcome. The Playhouse is an awesome studio with a cool atmosphere, everyone inside is friendly and genuine, I’m sure I will be back for more.

Heather Kerr

Wookjin is an extremely talented artist. He did an amazing and beautiful job on my tattoo. I did a lot of research before choosing him to do my tattoo because I’m an artist myself and very particular. His work was fine and exacting and beautifully done. This was important because we built geometry into my design and it needed to be perfect. And it was. I am extremely pleased with the result and would recommend him to anyone.

Utkarsh Gaur

Really impressed with the work Matthew did. Playhouse has a great atmosphere and very chill staff. Definitely coming back here for my next tattoo!

Ana Banana

I decided to get my first tattoo here and I'm so thankful this is the place I chose! My tattoo artist Francis was super patient and collaborative while I was choosing exactly what to get and where to get it which made the whole process so comfortable. The atmosphere and cleanliness of the space also made that experience so much better for me as well seeing as it was my first ever tattoo and I was a little bit nervous. Overall it was a great experience and I'd recommend Playhouse and Francis to anyone who's looking for a comfortable space and a meticulous and thoughtful artist!

Ceara Walsh

Just recently left a session with my friend who got a tattoo from Francis. He is amazing at what he does and truly takes his time with his work producing great pieces. He made her feel very comfortable and we easy to joke with. The shop was very clean and had good vibes all around. Will be going for my own tattoo here soon. 10/10!

Lisa Lopatriello

Just had the most beautiful custom tattoo done by Wookjin! He is so talented, and a pleasure to work with. It was a great experience, everyone in the shop was friendly and made me feel welcomed. The communication was great from my first email sent. Wookjin has such a gentle hand, I literally felt no pain at all during my session. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a tattoo artist. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks again Wookjin!

First thing I ever noticed about playhouse tattoo shop was how clean and organized it was and the staff are super friendly! Went to Matthew for a cover up and he is honestly one of the most talented artists I know, very detailed in his work and he was very patient with helping me design my tattoo and explained on how he would cover the preexisting one which helped me feel at ease. I’m so happy with the cover up it looks freaking amazing ! 100% going back for more tattoos! Hands down the best tattoo shop in Mississauga.

Melika Amar

Hands down my favorite tattoo studio in the city. Everyone there is really friendly and welcoming. I had the super talented Ami Dave do cute small tattoos on my fingers and wrist, which came out so pretty. She made me feel super comfortable the entire time, as did the entire staff. I highly recommend you see Ami Dave, she is honestly one of the best artists I have seen so far.

I had my first tattoo done recently at Playhouse with Jeniya. The shop was clean and beautifully decorated with a lot of art. The shop also had a good system in place to deal with Covid. Jeniya did an amazing job not only on my tattoo (which was beautifully done) but also making me feel welcomed and less nervous about getting my first tattoo. I would recommend this shop to anyone wanting to get a tattoo!

I got my first tattoo done at playhouse. These guys are awesome. They are so friendly. Francis did my tattoo and he is nicest person and engaged me in a conversation whole time to get me distracted. I will suggested all the people out there to get their tattoo done at playhouse.

Melissa Dang

Best tattoo shop ever! Can't go to anybody else but Yi from Playhouse. His creativity and vision is mind blowing and so understanding. 100% recommended.

Lindsey Azevedo

Matthew from Playhouse is amazing!!! Crazy artist, collaborative and has some made skills. Just sat for a 7 1/2 hour tattoo with him and me made me not only feel comfortable, he made it feel easy. Thank you for everything. Everyone at the shop is cool and down to earth, feels like visiting friends lol they know how to make you feel welcome and at home!

Sarah

Awesome job Francis! You’re one odd dude but you made the process so fun and easy! Thank you for all the time you took perfecting the design and your total attention to even the tiniest detail of my “cute” tattoo. Also thanks for the awesome customer service all around, you guys were so quick to respond to my inquiry online and so accommodating when fitting me in!

Joseph Genovese

Got 2 tattoos done by Ami very happy with both so far, the line work is amazing. Shop is very clean and staff is really cool. Will definitely be back

altrisha rodrigues

Got my first tattoo with Francis! He was absolutely amazing. Made me feel at ease the second we met. Couldn’t have picked a better place for my first tattoo. The staff there is super friendly too. Will be seeing Francis again in the fall for some more tattoos :D

Carmel Myrced

Mary tattooed me about two weeks ago and it was an amazing experience. The booking process first of all was really simple and easy. Most places I find never get back to you if you email them for an appointment. But their booking system is efficient. The studio itself is really nice and has a good vibes. They even have a cute kitten to keep you company. My boyfriend is allergic to cats but didn't have any issues while he was there with me. They have a pool table where my boyfriend and one of the owners played while me and Mary were together. Mary herself was amazing and talented. Very new but if you've had time to see her work you can see the improvement and it's crazy. Her lines are CLEAN! She asked all the right questions ... how thin do I want it, where do I want it, how big do I want it, etc. She made sure she was giving me exactly what I wanted. She even checked up on me after a few weeks to make sure the tattoo was healing okay. That was new and really sweet of her. Overall I would recommend this studio! I already have and will keep recommending

Jessica Rodriguez

I recently had a simple mountain tattoo done by Jeniya and my experience with her and Playhouse was incredible. Replies from both management and Jeniya were quick and informative. …

Jazz V

Amazing place. The atmosphere was nice and chill. Staff working were all cool good vibes. It was my first tattoo and the whole experience was amazing. Francis was the tattoo artist that took care of me he was extreamly gentle since he knew it was my first tattoo. Amazing artist and wonderful place. No complaints. Will def recommend this place and I for sure will be going back for more tattoos.

RUCHIKA AHLUWALIA

I recently visited Playhouse Tattoo Studio for my first tattoo. Oliver did a great job with the tattoo, he was very considerate when I told him that it was my first tattoo. The tattoo was in a foreign language which he didn't understand even then he made all the possible efforts to understand the phrase and design the same properly. Thank you for the amazing experience!

Cisca McInnis

Madelyn did a great job for my son's first tattoos. She was super patient and listened to all his thoughts and opinions. They turned out great

Ms. D

Got a beautiful ankle tattoo with Vince. Consult was thorough, listening skills are excellent, tattoo experience was smooth and he took his time to make sure the process was precise and he explained everything throughout. I took a look at the work of the other artists as well. So original and beautiful. Depending on what design you want, they are all talented. The studio is spacious, the employees are all friendly, and the environment is positive. Going back for a second one soon.

Megan Prabhu

Ami is the absolute BEST. her work is amazing, I have had 2 tattoos done by her so far and they’re incredible. Her eye for tiny details is amazing and she takes her time and will give you her honest opinions. She took a very big detailed idea and made it into a size which I wanted (very difficult but she was up for the challenge) I love this shop and will only go to her !!

Steph Vic

I got my tattoo yesterday by Leah. She is awesome. It looks amazing and I've already had so many compliments. The shop was clean and bright and comfortable. I already have another appointment booked.

Pau N

Matthew Tran did my first ever tattoo and he’ll be doing the rest of my tattoos! he’s precise and ensures you get the best possible result that'll make you happy. This shop by far have the best customer service out there. I highly recommend going to Matthew Tran if you want a high quality tattoo!

Janu Patel

I came to Playhouse to get my first tattoo done by Ami after seeing her work on Instagram, and my expectations were definitely met. She is a very talented artist, and the whole process was quick and painless. During my appointment, the other artists who were there were also very friendly and contributed to a lively atmosphere. My entire experience was great, and I look forward to coming back soon.

amber McCabe

Playhouse is honestly the best shop I've been to, they are super helpful, nice and always go above and beyond for their clients. HIGHLY recommend any of the artists at the shop. I got a piece done by Jordan and a few others and their work is phenomenal.

Jade Lillywhite

Ami was the best, she was extremely friendly and gave me the most beautiful tattoo. For being an extremely picky person myself, Ami accommodated all my requests and gave me something I am really happy with.

Ishan Virdi

Man came here for my first Tattoo and it was a dope experience! All of the staff members are super friendly, and the vibe inside the shop is super nice. Like myself, many of my family members come to PlayHouse to get Tattoos as well. Francis is steadily killing it and I recommend to anybody that’s getting a tattoo for the first time to go check him out !!

Cristina L

First time tattoo done by the lovely Andrea! Shes very sweet and well skilled. Would definitely recommend this place to who ever reads this. Theres a reason these guys have a perfect rating on google, cause they’re perfect! Thanks Andrea!

Soulful Boogeyman

My artist was patient with me and kinder than words. The staff in there amazed me in their ability to make me feel at home. While I was in there I watched them tattoo, consult, and work with other people. Their professionalism was beyond expectation. I watched as each artist put the clients needs first, never watching the clock to speed the customer up. I listened as they dealt with potential clients needs and wants and watched as they made ideas and visions into art. Amazing artists. Clean contemporary atmosphere. A bunch of talented loving souls. By far my best tattoo experience ever. I would recommend the studio and all of the artists in it to anyone and I have definitely decided this is where the rest of my tattoos will be done. Thank you Playhouse family and Francis!

Jill Gillard

I would give this place and Ami 100 stars if I was able to. Completely exceeded my expectations. **Ami was genuine, artistic and EXTREMELY talented to say the least. Her line work skills are out of this world! The shop was clean, great environment to be around overall great time. Would recommend this place to the world. Already planning our next tattoos!

Vitaliy Kunytsin

Had a large back piece done by Matthew Tran. I enjoyed the whole experience from start to finish. Matthew took my idea and suggested a few changes to make it look even better; Really good at his job, true artist! Rest of the staff was very welcoming too, even went out to get us coffee.

Harvir Grewal

Booked with Ami and she did an amazing job! She took her time to make sure i LOVED my tattoo, very very professional and amazing at what she does - high quality work! Playhouse as a whole was a clean shop, all good vibes in there!! I love my tattoo and so does everyone else, cant wait to book again with Ami!

lmiranda

Clean and professional from start to finish. Ami’s talent is second to none. Highly recommend Ami and Playhouse Tattoo Studio!

Sasha Bertusa

I got my tattoo done back in November of 2018, so this is kind of a delayed review, but I can't say enough amazing things about this beautiful place. The atmosphere, vibe and friendly artists make this place the best in Mississauga. Wookjin was my talented artist and really took the time to listen to my ideas in the consultation and through various emails back and forth, my tattoo turned out AMAZING. His line work and attention to detail is unmatched. I highly recommend Playhouse to anyone who wants a beautiful piece!

Nadien Elias

Play real good music, good vibes as everyone is really friendly. Clean facility with experienced tattoo artists. I personally go to Ami Dave! She has an amazingly steady hand, she has super creative pieces, and is very detailed with her work. She always makes sure the tattoo is exactly the way I want it and she has great energy!

Lena Rafael

MY daughter got a rose placed on her wrist, was charged $200 for less then an hour and looks like a 2yr old did it. I would NEVER recommend this place, they are not experienced tattoo artists. One very disappointed MOM. Shame on this place

ethan d

got my first tattoos with oliver and he made it a great experience made sure i was comfortable and the tattoos were amazing, i’d highly recommend him

M K

Had an amazing flawless experience to say the very least! Went right at 12 on a sat as I was told that's the best time for walk-ins and indeed it was! Wanted to surprise my husband with a tattoo on my bottom with his name & infinity symbol, and as it was my first tattoo (I'm 26) I was super nervous, but all the Playhouse staff made me feel assured and comfortable I cam to the most artistic and clean place in Mississauga. My artist was Francis, a super professional and incredibly talented artist at the location, although my tattoo was only 3 inches, he spent an hour just sitting with me and creating the perfect design on photoshop with a combo of my pinterest and google images/letter generator haha. He is meticulous, and made sure the design was 100% immaculate before printing and stenciling, and indeed it was up to my high expectations, being in a creative industry myself. Also he kept my nerves calm and the pain was minimal as he promised for what I wanted and where I wanted it. Overall, perfect experience and will recommend to others!! Can't wait to show my husband tomorrow when he returns from a bachelor party weekend haha :P - Melia

Danielle Bray

My cousins and I had a great first tattoo experience with Oliver. He created a great design and was very thoughtful about the placement and execution. He put us all at ease and I will definitely be back! Highly recommend Oliver for any first (or subsequent) tattoos!

Cathlyn Ramos

Got my first tattoo here; Francis is amazing and achieved beyond my expectations. He made me feel comfortable throughout my time there and didn’t start my tattoo until I completely fell in love with the design he created for me. I couldn’t be any happier with my experience here!

Anthony Pham

Got my chest piece tatt done here by Matthew he was very patient and listen to what I wanted and did an amazing job I absolutely love the work he did!!

Kimmurr Sunga

Everyone was super awesome and friendly! Francis did an amazing job and I’m super happy with my tattoo! I love it so much! Thank you!

Jason S

Got a rose piece from Yi and he did an amazing job! I easily recommend everyone to check the shop out! Wouldn't have gone to any other shop to get my first tattoo. Yi is an amazing artist!

Kelly Le

Matthew did an amazing job with my tattoo and being patient with me despite my complaining! Super friendly and calms you down if you’re nervous. The parlour itself is very clean and nicely decorated.

Anastasiya K

I got my first tattoo done a couple days ago, a set of cat eyes as a memorial for my cat. It was done by Jordan and he did so amazing it looked pretty much identical to the picture I gave him. He put in a lot of effort into it and it shows! I definitely recommend him for anyone that is looking for a realistic tattoo. It was also a great environment to be in, I felt very comfortable there because of how friendly everyone was and especially Jordan being very kind to me throughout the whole process.

Meagan Caicedo

I got my first tattoo here, and I love it!!! Clean line work was what I wanted, and my artist, Oliver, gave me exactly that. He was super patient, careful, and easy to talk with, it was a great experience. I've wanted to get this tattoo for a really long time, I'm glad I went here to get it. I would definitely go back to playhouse, and to Oliver specifically, highly recommend!

Anna Gabriela Rosas

My experience was amazing! Francis really took his time to make my tattoo perfect from the consultation process to the actual tattoo! I’m really happy with it and highly recommend him. I’ll be coming back for sure, thanks again!!!

Monique Bettencourt

I've been in love with this shop since the beginning! My brother got his first few pieces done by Yi when the shop first opened, and they are incredible quality. I started going to the shop myself at 19, and have made Playhouse my go-to. Ami has done both of my pieces, and I have another appointment in a month! You will not find anyone better than these guys. They are dedicated artists who work hard to master their craft and give every customer the tattoo of their dreams. I recommend Playhouse to all my friends, and drive up from London to get tattooed there. Playhouse is the way to go for a quality tattoo--there's a reason they're #1!

Laura Lorenz

Great people. Clean establishment. Oliver took great care of myself and husband.

Kevin Domaoang

If you are going to get a tattoo I highly recommend choosing Matthew as your tattoo artist. He is incredibly creative and takes his time with his craft. I cannot wait for my second session with him!

Al Alarakhia

Jeniya did an amazing job on a tattoo I designed. Before my appointment, she responded to my emails and gave feedback on my designs. Jeniya made me feel very comfortable and took her time to make sure it was perfect. She has very steady hands with a soft touch. Her line work is amazing. Surprisingly very little to no pain. The tattoo looks amazing! I'll be coming back in a month or two for my next one.

Claudia Kozlowski

If you're looking to get a tattoo from Playhouse, set up an appointment with Ami Dave!! She will bring your vision to life and make it look flawless! She's extremely patient and dedicated, and really can do anything!! Her fine line work is out of this world!!! Amazing experience at Playhouse, highly recommend! :)

Alexa Dimaano

Came here from the recommendation from my brother in law and I understand why he is a regular now. Such a positive experience getting my tattoo done by Francis. Thank you again for the great work (and for feeding me timbits)!! Definitely coming back here again when I’m in town

Jasna Gia

Had my tattoo done by Francis yesterday and I am more than happy. He is an amazing tattoo artist and a fun person. I highly recommend him! Also I will be going back soon for more.

Got my first tattoo done by the talented Ami. She had an idea of what I was going for and ran with it. The end result is an incredibly beautiful and amazing tattoo. Sooooo happy to found Playhouse Tattoo. I will definitely come back for more. Thank you Ami!

Madelyn Pagani

I just got my first tattoo with Jeniya today and my experience was honestly so great. for someone like myself who doesn’t have much understanding of how it all works, she was super patient and helped me make some style decisions. you can totally tell she loves what she does and her line work is insane - worth every penny!!!! highly highly recommend :)

Linda Ma-Konecny

I had Jeniya make my vision come to reality with the 2 tattoos that I received from her this week. She is super patient, friendly, professional and has a light hand compared to previous tattoos that I received. I highly recommend Jeniya, she's sweet as pie and her work is amazing!!!

Seinthan Sangar

Had a great experience here. Came in for a walk-in to get a wrap around ankle piece that was done by Francis. He was really accommodating with my requests and was very patient to make sure that the sketch was done perfectly to my liking. The shop vibe and atmosphere was very welcoming and everyone that works here was very friendly as well. Would definitely recommend to a friend and Playhouse has definitely become my go to spot.

shivan mahendran

Amazing experience getting my first tattoo at Playhouse. Talented tatoo artists with great pricing . Highly recommended!

Cassandra Medel

I went to Playhouse for my first tattoo, Ami was my artist and she did an amazing job! staff was helpful and welcoming. I am definitely getting my next tattoo done with her again.

Kyle Marks

Just got a memorial peice for my dad who past away. I spent some time searching for a tattoo artist and came across Matthew and it was a no brainer. Matthew has got mad skillz. He made me very comfortable nothing but good vibes. I will definitly be going back to playhouse tattoo studio to see him. When im ready for my Japanese dragon.

Dee S

For those of you who have never experience having a tattoo and was petrified like I was. The experience here was fulfilling. Thank you Francis for having patience with my first time experience. I had my moms name tattoed in sanskrit writing. Francis was able to get the details exactly to what I wanted. It took quite a few visits before I decided to have my first tattoo. Keep up the good work. I highly recommend this place. Thank you Francis and keep up the good work.

Brendan Long

My parents and I went here to get our first tattoo together, and had our artwork done by Matthew. We were somewhat nervous at first, but as we talked to Matthew and looked at designs for what we wanted, we became more comfortable- he was extremely accommodating. The art work was completed exactly as we wanted it done and I could not be happier with the result; the piece looks intricately done and clean. I will definitely be going here for any further tattoos or touch-ups. Friendly and talented artist.

Daljit Padam

Heard about Playhouse from a friend. So I decided to email regarding what I was looking for. I got in touch with Matt and rightaway, I was happy with the communication and the appreciation for my tattoo vision. I had 4 done from an apprentice previously and I got my first professional one done by Matt a few days ago. It has yet to be finished but im so happy with the piece so far. The detail is perfect and I recommend this shop to anyone looking for a perfect tatt. Dee jay

Mandy P

I had the pleasure of being a skin donor and working with the apprentice Adam. He was phenomenal to work with from start to finish. From spending the time to design exactly what I wanted and even improving on my original idea, to being confident, professional and comforting through the duration of my tattoo. I absolutely love the work he did!! I will definitely be coming back (and not just for the free tattoos lol). Also shoutout to Abby who was super friendly and helpful! 10/10 all around.

Connor Rogers

Had a great experience here. Place is super clean and they have all the Covid protocols in place. I had Oliver, he’s really friendly did a great tattoo for me. Highly recommend this studio and Oliver!

Ale

I came to Playhouse tattoo for my second & third tattoo after finding them on Instagram and Ami did such an amazing job. I went for a consultation about a month prior and changed my ideas entirely before the day of my appointment and Ami was amazing. She was very patient and provided her professional input, which was very much appreciated. She is amazing at what she does! Her script work is so precise and clean. Will definitely be going back to her for my next tattoos. Thank you Ami!!

Allison Rizzo

Ami was amazing! Took her time to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and she did such a good job on my tattoo and a friends. Would highly recommend booking with her, she is very talented!

Connor Loft

Amazing experience. Matthew is an amazing tattoo artist and did an amazing job taking an idea and turning it into exactly what i wanted. Would definitely recommend Playhouse because of the quality of work and how great the artist’s are making you feel welcome and relaxed.

Jeffrey Blake

Got my first tattoo here by Oliver and he did a fantastic job.

LINCOLN BURNETT-CARTER

I had an amazing time today here at playhouse I got my first tattoo done by Francis he's an amazing artist with a gentle touch he also knows how to really lighten up the mood and make you feel relax I strongly recommend trying him out ! :)

Cathy N

Matthew did a coverup tattoo for me yesterday. He is very talented and such a perfectionist. I absolutely love his work. He is so gentle, and his hands were so steady, I was very comfortable through out the whole session. The tattoo he gave me exceeded all my expectations. You have to book your appointment for Matthew because he’s that good! He is definitely worth the wait. The shop is professional and all the staff there are so friendly and down to earth. By the way, they play awesome music, so spending the time there will be all worth it. Especially when you walk out with an awesome tattoo!

Albert Cousins

Very nice and clean welcoming atmosphere. Francis did a great job with the tatoo nice and friendly staff.

Maraya Joseph

I had an amazing first tattoo experience with Ami! I wasn’t able to take anyone to the session due to Covid restrictions, but she made it so comfortable. And her work is so STUNNING. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of my tattoo and she was so accommodating during the whole design process. I’d highly recommend Playhouse and Ami!

Roudi S

MY fav. Place to go to for Tattoos ???? Francis my greatest Artist ????

Vincent luu

I had my tattoo does from Matthew, great artist! Took his time and did a great job .When we were finished he gave me all the advice I needed and everything to be done with the after care. Would go again

Kassandra Arroba

My entire experience here was incredible and perfect. Right from the very beginning everyone was so welcoming and friendly, which created a very calming environment. I was tattooed by Ami and she was absolutely phenomenal! I got the solar system around my ankle, a UFO on my arm and the Aquarius sign behind my ear. Ami is so nice and kind. She has such a gentle hand, which made the experience as painless as it could be. She also created such amazing details in my tattoos that have gotten so many compliments! I am definitely coming back here for all future tattoos. Thank you so so much again Ami! I highly recommend everyone to get your tattoos done here!

mohammad abdul karim

Highly RECOMMENDED would go again for next tattoo if I am back to Canada, got me a last time booking which was perfect, design and tattoo got done on the same day. Thank you ami you’re the best . And abi thanks for recommendations :) WORTH your money for great work.

Hailey McGowan

I absolutely love playhouse! Yi and Alula are super friendly and always make you feel welcome. I've had two tattoos done by Yi and both have come out amazing. Yi takes the time to make sure it comes out how you want it to, and it's super clean! I would definitely recommend playhouse to anyone

Mo

Great first experience, at Playhouse Tattoo! Friendly staff, Matthew my tattoo artist did an awesome job!

Ankita Kapoor

I always had my eye on playhouse tattoos because every tattoo on their IG page screams “personalized”. I decided to get my 4th & 5th tattoo here when it opened after the lockdowns. I approached Francis & he was one of the MOST AMAZING HUMANS I have interacted with in my life. I gave him a concept & he hit a home run with it!! The tattoo of my dog couldn’t have been better imagined that Francis. So much so that after 2 weeks I went back for 2 more! Francis is very light handed- goodbye pain! He is so engaged & it clearly shows that he loves what he does. He puts his soul with each tattoo & the end result will BLOW YOUR MIND. The conversations are great and so is the hospitality by the entire staff. They are clean, professional & so much fun to be around! Francis is my artist for life! Thank you playhouse & Francis for being so awesome.

Anthony Wasmund

After years of putting it off I decided to finally get coverups for some really bad tattoos from my youth. Did some looking online and found Playhouse Tattoos. I booked a consult with Francis and right away knew that I wanted him to do my tattoos. With his help the design for the first one came together even better than I had planned. The finished work is fantastic. He made the entire experience enjoyable. 6 hours in the chair with him flew by. Already have a design appointment booked to begin my next piece. Cannot wait.

Catherine D

I've been a returning customer at Playhouse over the past 2 years, and it's always a pleasure stepping into the shop. The staff is very lively, friendly and welcoming - whether you're in for your 1st or 10th tattoo. I had the pleasure of having my latest piece done by Matthew recently. Matthew is a great artist, and I appreciate his talent and keen attention to detail. His work is clean and will not fall short of your expectations. Thanks Matthew!

Sebastian Koniecek

One of the best experiences I could ever have with my first tattoo. I was a little bit nervous and worried at first, but the staff there showed me how much of a good experience it can be. The entire staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, I really enjoyed the small talk I had. I let Yi run with the original design I provided and I was amazed at how detailed, vibrant and beautiful my first tattoo turned out. They also took me through the steps of maintaining and healing my tattoo since I was worried I would mess it up. This place is amazing and I hope they grow even more. When I get my itch for my second tattoo, I will be back at this place. Also chicken nugget is the cutest cat ever!

Martin Astudillo

Walked in without an appointment and first person to greet me was Matthew/Matt (IG: @Matthew.playhouse). Matthew exceeded my expectations, easily! Attention to detail is amazing and definitely did not expect the work to be done very well. I have tattoos around the hands and knuckles, by far best tattoo yet! Will be booking with him very soon!

Carly White-Sjolin

Madelyn was my tattoo artist and she did an amazing job!! I love my tattoo so much. absolutely KILLED IT :) she has a great eye for detail and her line work is solid. highly recommend

Chris Malando

Wouldn’t recommend this place only because I feel like they take advantage of people who do not know much about tattoos. A family member of mine came here to get a bigger piece done, and the artist definitely overcharged ; considering her tattoo was only around 4x4”. On top of that, the artist did not collaborate with her in creating the design. Compared to other people i know who had a much bigger tattoo done, definitely a rip off.

Ally P

Absolutely love this place! Clean, professional, welcoming environment with incredibly talented artists. Would highly recommend! Recently got new ink from Matthew and I'm super pleased. He is amazingly talented and a great spirit!

Michelle

Jeniya did an incredible job! She did three tattoos for me today and I am obsessed with each of them. The line work and overall quality is incredible. Jeniya really showed care and patience and wanted to ensure I was satisfied with any design changes, sizes, and positioning. Very clean and welcoming environment. Can't wait to come back!

Dan Irvine

Very friendly environment with staff being very helpful for us first timers. Leah did our tattoos and was very thorough and patient with us. We would strongly recommend Playhouse for your tattoo

Kelly

Amazing place! Francis was so kind and patient during the whole experience and really took the time to understand and design the exact tattoo that I wanted. So incredibly pleased with his work!

Sonal Mohindra

After long 3yrs of wanting, researching and planning to get my very first tattoo I came upon Playhouse Tattoo studio website. I loved the portfolios and decided to check it out. It was such an amazing experience. I was a lot nervous and wasn’t sure what I would walk into, but the moment I entered the shop I was warmly greeted by the whole staff. I felt like I was just sitting between friends and swapping stories. My tattooed artist Vince had a very calm personality. As it was a new experience for me he made me feel comfortable and went through each and every step thoroughly. I would highly recommend Vince. He is an amazing artist with an awesome personality. Vince, I’ll definitely be coming back again when I’m ready for my next tattoo. For the first timers who are a bit scared of the pain I highly recommend the numbing cream. It took the edge off for me. It wears off after a while but the starting point when you are a whole lot nervous, it makes that part bearable.

Mahendra Singh

Awesome first experience there went for my first tattoo they walked me through the whole process. The artist came up with exactly what I had in mind !! It came out better then what I expected . I already booked another session need to get 4 more .

J C

I would reccomend this place for your tattoo experience. The employees are so great and honest about the work they do. Oliver was the person that did mine and I was the happiest person with the outcome of his work. Would definitely go back again if I get another.

dayna gregory

i got a coverup done by Matthew on a tattoo that had been poorly done and it turned out amazing. he paid such close attention to detail to make sure it looked perfect when he was done. he's super talented and gives you exactly what you want! the studio has a really good vibe and everyones friendly :)

Teri Kim

Playhouse is a great studio, and Ami is an amazing artist! I went in to fix a tattoo gone wrong and she more than fixed it, she made it absolutely stunning!

VW Scirocco

This is a unbiased personal experience I do think the tattoo artists here are really good and my tattoo experience might have been a one off The shop does seem to be very clean but my experience made it seem like more of a hang out spot then anything. Clients bringing 4-5 friends with them and hanging out all day. Other shops I’ve been to have a max 1 person policy and I really appreciate that. One of the problems most people have is price. I don’t care as long as the work is spot on then I’ll pay whatever, the only thing that caught me off guard was the tax added onto the quote. This is the first time I have experienced this at a tattoo shop and when u get a quote of 1000$ you don’t don’t expect to have to get hit with more then that unexpectedly. One of the problems I had was it seems like no one here has original work. All the artists I saw there were just pulling images off the internet and dropping them into photoshop. For what they charge here you would expect some originality. The tattoo I did get here I have already contacted another artist at a different location to cover because it just wasn’t anything that I had expected and the quality wasn’t there If you are interested in something pulled off the internet then these guys can put it on your body but if you have an idea with references but want something more original I’d suggest checking somewhere else out. Don't get me wrong, I know these guys can tattoo because I know people that have gone there and they love it. But this was my experience

Olivia Tarr

Got my first tattoo ever here, Jeniya was such an amazing artist to work with (even for a nervous wreck like me lol)! It had a great, fun atmosphere, and was very clean. Definitely recommend!

Ashank Menon

Dope spot to get a tattoo. Went in for a design session with Ami and came out with a design I really liked. The tattoo was done great and very close to what I wanted. Definitely would recommend Ami to anyone that’s looking to get some new ink.

Adriana Carolina Carrillo

Ami did a geometric floral tattoo on my wrist and it turned out beautiful, I am super happy with it. The whole time everyone was very nice and the environment was very friendly. Ami worked with me to design the tattoo, which was a cover-up for a tattoo I didn't love. She was very good at guiding me through what would look good and what wouldn't look the best, she took all of my ideas into consideration and added her own style and it turned out better than I could've even imagined. 100% would recommend Ami and this tattoo studio to anyone who's not sure where to go, everything was clean and hygienic and they were very professional while providing excellent customer service.

karolina mrozowska

I got my first tattoo done by Mary!! I booked my appointment about a month prior to and the booking process was straightforward and really easy. The tattoo studio is super cute and they play very good music which helped calm me down because I was super scared. The other tattoo artist is also super cool. Mary is super professional and helped me out by drawing out the tattoo and changing it up a little because I didn't like a part of the one I had originally picked out and she was super understanding. My tattoo turned out beautiful and so did my best friends'!! We will definitely be coming back for more tatts! Oh and there was a super cute kitten there as well :-)

I had my first tattoo today and I booked with jeniya. I was super nervous and felt very worried. As soon as I walked in the store, I felt comfortable and the atmosphere was amazing. Jeniya answered all of my questions, and made me feel so calm and comfortable. Her work is INSANE!! It’s amazing and I’m so beyond happy with my tattoo. She is so talented and the whole store is clean and fresh. Such great staff, I was welcomed by everyone. I totally recommend jeniya and playhouse!! Will be going again for my second. Thanks guys

Yuvrajvir Sidhu

My first tattoo and I'm glad I went to Playhouse and Oliver. Oliver took his time and made sure I was comfortable all the way until the end. Definitely coming back here again

Jordan StCyr

I finished my sleeve with Francis, great experience working with him to sit down and create a design from scratch and negotiate a fair price. Awesome shop everyone is friendly and all in all a great atmosphere to be in when getting a tattoo, highly recommend.

Julia Liuzzi

Look no further for a tattoo shop! The guys at Playhouse were friendly and professional all the way through the experience, and it is such a fun environment to be in! Ami specifically was amazing, I spent years looking for an artist that could do line work and Ami exceeded my expectations! Will only go here for my tattoos from now on!

killergoalie16

Jordan is a true professional he took a charcoal drawing of my wife and reproduced it in a beautiful black and grey portrait tattoo, he spent the time to get the sizing placement just right for me. Jordan’s skill as an artist made choosing him to do the portrait easy. I’ll be going back to have Jordan tattoo me again. 5 stars

Matt P

Today was the start of my sleeve tattoo and had an awesome time. The staff is outstanding here, everyone is friendly and polite. I’ve had a great experience here from the start. I have gotten tattoos before and honestly I will not go anywhere else. Can’t wait to go back and finish the sleeve and have more done . Thanks guys for the great experience. Wish I could give a better rating .

Brittany McAuley

Got a matching tattoo with my sister recently and Ami helped us come up with the perfect design! I’m really glad I found this shop. A) it’s beautiful and has artwork done by the artists all over the walls, which is stunning; B) everyone seemed super fun and chill; and C) Ami is amazing! I’m obsessed with the tattoo, she couldn’t have done a better job. Will definitely be going to her again!

Parmjot Jutla

Leah was amazing in sitting down with my husband and I to design a meaningful tattoo. Her work is clean and very fine - exactly what we were looking for. Everyone in the shop was very nice and professional. Their work area was extremely clean and they washed their hands before and after cleaning each work space and working with each client. This was our first tattoo and I would definitely come back should I get a second.

Charles Leung

Staff is professional and friendly. The tattoo work was clean and healed very quickly. I will definitely be returning soon .✌️????

Sam Duong

For my first tattoo, My artist was Oliver. He was awesome. He made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. No complaint at all. Unfortunately, it will only one for me but I would highly suggest my friends and family members. Thank you Oliver.

Michelle Burns

Playhouse is AWESOME!!! Ami did both of my tattoos, and I’m already planning my next one! The shop is clean, warm, and welcoming. The staff are all very welcoming, friendly, and professional, and they go above and beyond for their clients. I would recommend Playhouse to everyone. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Thank you Ami, and all of Playhouse- you guys rock!

Jagnoor Virk

The environment is very welcoming and comfortable. Both yi and Mary provide a great experience and I would recommend playhouse to anyone looking to get a tattoo. You won't regret it.

justin beshay

I recently got a medium sized piece done by Jeniya. She gave me an amazing first tattoo experience. She was clean, polite, and all around amazing. I recommend her 100% if you are to get some line work done. I wouldn't want it any other way.

Royan Norman

My experience at Playhouse was outstanding! They were professional and friendly throughout the entire process, and provided email reminders of my appointments as well. It's a very clean, and comfortable environment. I had my tattoo done by Oliver, whom was very friendly, and accommodating, as well as knowledgeable and talented. It was my first one in over 10 years, and from the time I met Oliver, I felt I was in good hands. From start to finish, he remained dedicated and was sure to follow up with an email outlining all the aftercare guidelines for the healing process. I'd highly recommend this place, for their professionalism, talent, fair pricing, and most importantly for the sense of comfort, and piece of mind that your work will match, or exceed your expectations. Cheers!

Amanda Ceci

I recently had my second tattoo done at Playhouse in Mississauga. I love this place. The staff is fun, welcoming and exceptional at what they do. Ami is the artist that created and completed my latest tattoo. I was very impressed with her skill and attention to detail. She is also really easily going and makes the entire experience a positive one, from beginning to end. Thanks Ami and thanks Playhouse. I will be back soon ❤️????????

Ashley Amenta

I’ve been to playhouse tattoos twice with Francis. I can’t say enough how happy I am with the art he has given me. The studio is so clean, and everyone is so welcoming. If anyone is ever looking to getting tattoos done I would 100% recommend!!! Thank you to everyone at playhouse!

Scurci

Had a rib tattoo booked with Matthew yesterday and the entire experience was amazing. From designing it, to placing it perfectly after many tries, he was patient, helpful, and understanding throughout. I was really worried about the pain since it was at the rib area but he did a great job in making sure I was always comfortable. I would 100% recommend getting your tattoo here. You're not just paying for the tat but also an amazing experience that will definitely have you coming back for more!

Justin Phan

Awesome shop and very clean. Got my first tattoo from Matthew. Talent artist. He was very detailed and took his time. Love his work. I would recommend him to my friends and family. Excited to go back for my second session. Big thumbs up to Matthew. Thanks!

Rahul Pal

Excellent work. Great Staff. Amazing artistry. I have been to a few places. They operate a clean professional joint. Go see Matt. He can do absolutely anything.

Claudia C.

Ami is fabulous! She's patient, kind and so talented. She took time to draw my 2 tattoos and was really open to discuss about any changes. She is really a great person and I am so so happy with my tattoos. Thank you so much. She's THE one you need for your next tattoo :-)

Thai Pham

I definitely recommend this place, I got my tattoo done by Matthew, and he was so patient with me, as I'm a hair dresser i wanted to get a scissor on my right arm and he took his time to design the look and explained to me how big it should be and the best placemet for it. Would go to him again for my third tattoo.

Caitlin Brodie

Playhouse is an amazing studio with FANTASTIC artists, Francis in particular. He’s is one of the nicest, funniest people I’ve ever met, he always makes me laugh and feel so comfortable when I’m getting tatted. I’ve trusted him with 2 major tattoos that are very important to me and he knocked them out of the park!! I know I’m going to keep coming back to playhouse for years to come and I recommend them to anyone and everyone looking to get a tattoo done!!!

Drazen Cubrilo

Amazing group of artists working together. Ami was the artist that did my tattoo and I could not be happier. Thanks so much Ami! The vibe of the place was great and very clean! Highly recommended!

Varun Sheth

Ami@Playhouse is the best, I got 2 tattoos done today and this was my first time, she explained the process well and very thorough with her work. I was a little skeptical about one of the tattoos I was getting since it was a realistic image of my dog, but it has come out to be awesome. The place also deserves 5 stars for its cleanliness and the staff's friendliness in general.

Joel Xerri

Soo showed up knowing that something like this was gunna happen. Considering a minimum price was a 1600 knowing i told him on the phone that my limit was 1600 for a half a sleeve. Get there has me waiting half hour. Comes out , and tries too tell me that he is the best in the city snd that his work is gunna cost me 3600 plus tip. For a half a sleeve i dont care how good you thats how u definately loss business.

Codeh

Had a tattoo done as a memorial piece for my father, Francis my artist was amazing the entire process. Not only did he sit with me and help me tweak the design and understand how important certain elements were, he also had amazing suggestions to add to it. We spoke at great length and he really cared and shared in the passion and love behind the tattoo. 10/10

Alena Persaud

My tattoo artist was Jeniya. It was a pleasure working with her because she understood exactly what I wanted. My tattoo was line work and Jeniya’s lines are thin and clean. I would definitely get tattooed by her again in the future!

Domenic Logozzo

Great Atmosphere! Francis was awesome. Great artist and even better person. Highly recommend you check out his artwork at Playhouse Tattoos.

Anthony Ferg

Staffs are really inappropriate with their jokes. Most artists are sitting around making fun of eachother and also clients in chair! Made my girlfriend feel very uncomfortable with the comments the long hair guy was continuously making. Dont come here if you expect politeness and customer service :|

Sara Charyshyn

Just had the privilege of being tattooed by Jordan, he is an amazing artist with great attention to detail. He made the whole experience from booking a consultant to the actual tattoo a totally great experience will definitely recommend Playhouse. Thank you so much Jordan will definitely be back for another one.

Laith Al-Durrah

Great experience! This was my first tattoo and it was a memorial for my dog Suki. Got the work done by Francis and he absolutely killed it! The art and application were exactly what I asked for and more. The cleanliness and care taken prior, during and after were on point. He even extended his patience and extra effort to open up a time slot to suit my specific schedule despite his already busy schedule. In fact all staff from artists to management were courteous, helpful and professional along every step of the way.

Lia Massoumi

Ami did an outstanding job with my partner and I's tattoos. We already made several recommendations to my family and friends and will be back! 10/10

Jan Magno

Awesome place to get a tattoo. I highly recommend coming here. The artist are very talented and friendly. Also, Francis who did my forearm tattoo is great! He did an amazing job and to top it off he’s an amazing dude :)

Danielle Kleiber

Ami did tattoos for both my wife and I and she absolutely nailed them. We would highly recommend her!

Tanisha

My first tattoo experience was with artist Abi! To begin with, I was late. & I was horrified because I know some artists get annoyed and I was worried I was gonna get the boot as I quickly ran inside 30 minutes late. BUT that wasn't the case! Abi took me in with open arms, sat with me and was so nice about choosing the font I wanted for my tattoo and was so patient even when I took a bit of time (I was indecisive). She offered to stop for breaks as she was doing my tattoo which I thought was so nice because it was my first time and she was completely honest with me about how painful it was going to be. Overall awesome experience, Abi is a great artist and person. THANK YOU! :)

tukster97

The staff were very knowledgable , friendly and very good at what they do . I'm so happy that I chose to get my tat here . Highly reccomend for anyone who wants a good tat ;)

Robert Saniga

This place is amazing. Had my tattoo done by Oliver who did a great job and made me feel very comfortable. The whole crew there were very personable (and funny)... Would definitely return for my next one

Jay Park

I really enjoyed my time here and the work that the tattoo artist Yi did on me! Everyone working there made me feel very comfortable and provided a friendly environment during my stay. Will definitely come back and do recommend to anyone wanting a tattoo. The tattoo artist is well qualified and experienced and will listen to your ideas to modify and improve any design you bring to him!

Shayne Roneil

Playhouse is an absolutely stunning stunning tattoo shop, not only is it very welcoming and aesthetically pleasing, but you can immediately sense the hard works and dedication that has gone into creating such a beautiful and inviting environment. The staff is incredibly friendly and make everyone feel welcome no matter who you are or why you're walking through the Playhouse door. But above all, Yi is an amazing artist and after going through his Instagram and seeing some of his work in person I can easily say that he puts 110% of his effort and focus into bringing all tattoo ideas to life, and does a fantastic job with every piece!

KB M

Was looking for a tattoo artist to start my other sleeve and came across 2 artists I was really interested in that work out of this shop. I narrowed it down to 1 artist and messaged him to book for a consultation and that was nearly 2 weeks ago, no word or response. So i thought he was extremely busy and decided to go with the other tattoo artist, it has been little over a week and still no response from either. I understand talented tattoo artist are very busy and can only do so much, but it cant be that hard to reply to an e-mail.. Won't be waiting anymore as I won't bother even going to the shop..

steph -

Had a great experience at Playhouse, it had a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. My artist was Oliver who was professional and his time to fit the tattoo to my arm and explain what to expect during the process. I would definitely go back for another tattoo.

Kristen

Love my tats all done by Matt ????????????. Love this place!! I read one review from someone saying playhouse doesn't know how to tell people how to care for their tattoos afterward. All my tats done here have healed BEAUTIFULLY. Leave the clear wrap on for 24 hours. Then I take it off, gently wash the tattoos, and reapply more clear wrap. I do this once every 24 hours for at least 4 days maybe more, depending on how big the tattoo is, then will not need the clear wrap anymore and will just continue to keep tat clean by gently washing but not scrubbing and using an ointment to keep the tattoo moisturized as drying will cause more colour to be lost as skin peels off, so needs to be kept moisturized. I am actually shocked by any negative reviews of Playhouse bcuz I love this place and bcuz I love it, it is making me addicted to keep coming back for more tats ????

Renelle Lafond

It's a very friendly and amazing place! I felt welcomed and right at home. It's full of positive and talented young artists. I was there for a couple hours and the atmosphere made me want to stay and get to know everyone. It's truly a great tattoo shop. I would recommend them 10/10.

Stephanie Larose

All I have to say is WOW. If you're considering getting a tattoo and debating between places, Playhouse should be your decision. The shop is very clean, well kept and has beautiful art all over. Francis is a very talented artist, he's fun and made me feel super comfortable from the start. He created a very special piece to represent my dogs and he made it extremely original, modern and I was really wowed! Playhouse workers are professional, friendly and great to be around and I am definetely going to go back for more ink! Thanks playhouse for making this experience great!

Jenny Ly

When I first found out about Matthew, he was an apprentice at the time but his artwork on his Instagram @Matthew.playhouse was more than just an apprentice. I’m so glad my sister and I got to share an experience of a lifetime walking in those front doors to be greeted by such wonderful, hilarious, and creative artists. Since then, Matthew has done a total of two beautifully detailed pieces on me and I couldn’t have been more happier with the experience, the outcome and all the compliments I am STILL receiving! Thank you Matthew for your patience & dedication and to all for creating a dream, this Playhouse Tattoo Studio will forever be the O.G????????

BLG Gaming

I had a great experience today, having my very first tattoo. Francis at Playhouse Tattoo was awesome.He kept me engaged in designing my tattoo, he was attentive, gave great advice and put me at ease. Francis's skills are exceptional and he pays attention to the details. The music in the shop was great and the rest of the staff was very nice and welcoming. I would recommend anyone looking to get a tattoo, to go to this place. I will be definitely be going back to get my next tattoo.

Richard McLean

I got my whole left hand done by mathew, the picture I gave him is identical to the tattoo he did on me, hands down my favourite tattoo I have would definitely recommend him to anyone

Misty Wellman

Wednesday Night, My son and I got matching tattoos. My artist was Francis who drew an amazing piece for us to enjoy over the years. He came up with an amazing design from only two details that we provided and we fell in love with it. The shop is clean with a professional with a relaxing environment. The staff are very friendly. I would recommend visiting and checking out the different styles they have to offer.

Thomas Horvath

Ive gotten two tattoos now by Matthew at playhouse and both have turned out amazing. The quality of tattoo you get is surreal for the good pricing at the shop. Matthew is a great artist, great guy, and will give you exactly what you would imagine in your tattoo. He is the only artist I trust to tattoo myself and would recommend him to anyone looking to get one. Playhouse is a great place with great artists.

Monika Rogacka

I had 2 tattoos done by Francis on Monday . I love them both, one on my wrist and another on my rib . He helped me design it and took his time with me and was very patient . He has a gentle hand and is super professional . see you soon Francis ;)

S M

Check out Francis, he’s the real deal. You’re getting a character person who brings both expertise and great energy. It was my first tattoo and he helped me get exactly what I wanted, cutting no corners in the design and inking process. 10/10 satisfied and highly recommended!

George Mikhail

Jordan did a great job on my tattoo. Loved the vibe of the shop. I felt like I had a lot of input on the collbaration on the my design which was important to me. 5/5!!!!

Polilan T

I got my first ever tattoo with Ami as my artist and the whole experience couldn't have been any better. Went in feeling a little nervous but Ami gives off welcoming vibes and instantly made me feel more comfortable. Super talented artist as she designed my tattoo exactly to my liking. Definitely would get any possible future tattoos with her. Highly recommend her for any tattoo as she is very professional, exceptionally skilled and detail oriented!

Vu Nguyen

Took my girlfriend here to get her second tattoo and oh man is it ever better than the first one. The floral design and details are so much better than the first one. Beautiful and clean shop. She got the tattoo done from Matthew. A talented artist, he was patient and understanding during the whole process, would recommend him to anyone!

Magda Campeau

Amazing place, great atmosphere! Went in for my first tattoo and was blown away by the amount of time and attention that was given to me. Ami you are amazing! I couldn't be happier how it all turned out. Thank you for everything!

James Bae

The artist was very helpful on my opinion of the tattoo I want. The shop has a nice environment where you can just chill out when your buddies are getting a tattoo. The customer service is solid.

Khang Nguyen

Amazing customer service, very friendly. One of the artist named Francis was very welcoming and easy to talk. He did an outstanding job on the tattoo, it came out better than expected. Took very good care of my friend and I, I would definately come back!

Ben Koonsakda

I had the pleasure of getting my first tattoo with Matthew. He is very personable and talented. I have never seen anybody with so much attention to detail. I would definitely recommend him to others looking to get a tattoo.

Alayne Brisley

I just got my second tattoo done with Francis and the experience was just as good as I remembered it! The atmosphere of playhouse is amazing, the artists really go out of their way to make sure that you have a great time with stunning results. The quality of the artists in this studio are extraordinary! Francis was more than enthusiastic to get my input at every stage of the process so the end result is exactly what I wanted! I will definitely be returning! Thanks again Francis for the awesome tattoo :)

Radu Clotea

Got my first tattoo with Jeniya, it came out amazing. Her script work is clean and she replicated my gf's writing perfectly. Super happy with the end product. The studio was also very clean and professional looking

Adam Nowakowski

I had a great experience at playhouse. From the minute I walked in to make a appointment I was welcomed with friendly staff. The shop is super clean and looks dope. I had my work done by Francis who is so professional and really took his time to make sure that everything was perfect. Not to mention he is friendly and funny, made my visit a 5 star experience. I'm really happy with the work he did and I highly recommend Francis!!!

Ancilla d'silva

Had my first tattoo done by Oliver Urbano. He took the time to see my choices and explain which one would stand out . He also added his personal touch to the final design. It turned out amazing . He was very caring and made sure to check how I was doing during the procedure. Thank you, Oliver. I'll definitely be back .

Aayush Sheth

They don't care. Their policy is to book online so I went ahead and did just that. I get a reply telling me that the recommended artist would reach out to me soon but after a week nobody had reached out. I email them again and they tell me to wait again and say the same thing that the artist would reach out and again after another week of waiting nobody reached out . After two weeks of being ghosted I decide to stop by the shop and they tell me I have to book online, I explain how I was ghosted and they have me do a quick 5 minute consultation with the artist while he's on his smoke break. Artist tells me to email them and they would schedule a design session in a few days. I email the artist the same day and again the artist never reached out to me to schedule the session. So after 3 weeks of being told I'd be reached out and then getting ghosted I'm not sure what to say other than the fact that they do not care about potential new clients.

ye yekaterina

It was such a nice experience in playhouse, the environment here make me really comfortable, especially for people who getting tattoo for the first time. I got nervous, because i thought this would be painful, but actually not. The tattoo artists are great, beautiful design! I love my first tattoo, Thank you Francis for giving me this, and thank you for encouraging me to do this for the first time

Emily Rezkalla

I am so happy I came here for my first tattoo! I got a floral design that had family meaning so it was a big deal for me. Francis was my artist and I have to say, I don’t think I would’ve received the same amazing service anywhere else. Francis was extremely patient and authentic. Legitimately felt confident in his creative decisiveness and how he listened to every detail I was hoping for. The piece came out exactly how I wanted it. I 100% will be back for my next tattoo, and if you are looking for an ‘amalgamation’ of delicate pieces with fine detail - Francis is your guy!

Lara Mangsat

I got my first big piece here, and was pleased with how comfortable and calm the artist made me feel throughout the tattooing process. As well as the atmosphere in the shop as a whole was welcoming. The only thing that I was not happy about was my experience getting my tattoo touched up. After my touch up, I felt that the tattoo was no longer as good as the first time I got it, and looked worse. I thought that it was rushed and lazily done, in order to serve the next client. I made an appointment for this touch up, so I expected to have been dedicated the time and effort. I thought that the tattoo would grow on me, so I waited for it to fully heal. But now every time I look at it I feel like I wasted my money’s worth.

Peter Dicintio

Francis made the process of getting my first tattoo seamless. This studio deserves a lot of credit for its cleanliness, as well as its relaxing environment, and obviously its talented artists.

Ken Vidmar

Got my first tattoo ever done here awesome vibe and wasnt intimidated at all my artist was matt dope guy and an amazing artist he exceeded my expectations truly talented artist was a pleasure and im proud to have your work on my skin cant wait to be back

Raj Dave

Amazing tattoo done by Ami. Definitely a talented artist. The shop was very clean and all the workers made it a fun and comfortable environment. Totally recommend coming to this shop! Thanks Ami for the tattoo

Cassandra Stoughton

If I wasn’t moving out of the province I would be going here for all my tattoos! I’ve been here twice now and my second experience was only better than my first! Francis was amazing! Not only did he give me a tattoo that I love but also took my friend as a walk in. His work amazing but It was a fun and comfortable atmosphere!

Thomas Perrotti

Recently got my first tattoo from Matthew and have to say, the overall environment of the shop was amazing. As soon as i came into the shop i felt very welcomed and comfortable, everybody in the shop from the artists, other customers and especially Matthew himself were great. Overall i had an excellent experience, my tattoo came out better than i could've imagined. Definitely going back to Matthew for my next tattoo very soon!

Carina Ribeiro

Ami did an incredible job on my recent rib tattoo, she has by far the cleanest lines I have ever seen. I would highly recommend her for any tattoo.

Daanish Sosan

I got 3 tattoos in a day which took a total of 10 hours. Despite the amount of time spent there, I felt very welcomed and involved and at home throughout. I had my tattoos done by Francis and he gave a full breakdown of what to do before, during and after I got my tattoos. He answered any questions or concerns I had. The atmosphere there is very friendly, all the artists converse and joke around in which they include their clients. This was the best customer service I've experienced at a tattoo studio. All the artists are very creative and unique and the tattoos I wanted turned out exactly the way I imagined. I would 100% recommend everyone to go here to get a tattoo, I will be going back for sure!

Silsila Bahrami

Playhouse is a really cool and relaxed tattoo studio and I got exactly what I wanted from Mary. She is super nice and professional and she did a great job. Would highly recommend! ????

Leeyon Gopie

Postivte: The place is neat, cleaned, fridendly zone, lots of respects In the room. Ami is actually my artist tattoos. She is really amazing tattoos artist. I would recommend you get direct with amis work Negative: when you set up the table chair laid that’s where it’s closer to the front door, it’s windy cold come in. I was shudders as cold. I’m trying to comfort myself as I could try not move. I’d suggested you should installed the window wall so your customer feels warm comforts OR change move the table chair to stay distance the front door-just watch out the winter is on the way! Good work Ami!

Sam K

Recently got my first tattoo here and Jeniya was absolutely amazing! She spent a ton of time designing and making sure I liked that I was getting. Also given that it was my first tattoo, she explained the whole process and made me feel super comfortable. The vibe at Playhouse is professional but also laid back so its definitely an enjoyable experience. Can't wait to go back!

dreaming in colour

Extremely professional yet still fun, good vibes in the shop. Felt so comfortable and welcomed by everyone. Studio is clean, bright and inviting. Vince did an amazing job and is a fantastic artist. I couldn't ask for a better experience. I am already planning my next piece of work with Vince and will be referring everyone I know to the studio.

Bryson Klyn

Made my first tattoo a phenomenal experience. Love how it turned out. Also the staff are super friendly and the facility has a great vibe!
