Reviews of The Hive Tattoo & Co. (Tattoo Shop)

Mishy Sharma

The Hive is an amazing tattoo shop with one of the most talented tattoo artists. Jordan did my tattoo. She is talented, patient, calm and polite. I was a pain for her. Made so many last minute changes to the tattoo design and she with a smile did it all. Every single person who has seen my tattoo has said only one thing, the artist who did this is so talented, and I absolutely agree with them. I am definitely getting more and more from her. Thank you The Hive for giving me such an amazing experience and thank you Jordan for making my tattoo experience so beautiful and smooth!

Kyle has tattooed over 40 hours on me and I have had the best experiences every time. His artwork is modern and crisp and his new studio is gorgeous! Clean friendly environment. Feels more like a hair studio than a typical “tattoo shop”... Thanks Kyle!

I had the distinct pleasure of experiencing The Hive Tattoo & Co today during their grand opening in Sarnia! From the sidewalk all the way to the far back corner of the shop, everything is clean, classy & esthetically pleasing to say the least! Loved the local artist flair on the walls, the first class lounge feel flows throughout. The artists' areas were all pristine and each had a different feel based on the artist's own journey. Loved the furniture at the front of the shop! Such an elegant touch for sure. Not your back alley, neon sign cracklin' hole in the wall! Be prepared to be pleasantly surprised and warmly welcomed into this space. This has definitely renewed my appetite for my next tattoo! The owners Kyle & Olivia have recently moved to Sarnia and all tatt lovers should be excited about that fact;) Great humans they are! The sights & sounds of the grand opening were one heck of a first impression! Thanks to Dale for bringing the sweet rides, they worked! Best of luck to all involved, genuinely excited for you! Support LOCAL!

I went to The Hive for “Paws for Cause” campaign. It was the first time I’ve been to The Hive, first time meeting their artists. Honestly all I can say is wow. You walk in to this clean, warm and welcoming environment where you are greeted by friendly faces at the front desk and front area. While you wait you sit in this “fresh, modern meets amazing artistry” area, your artist comes and greets you. I had the pleasure of having my work done by Rik Harley. Although I believe all the artists are great in there. Rik took something simple and turned it into one of my favourite pieces. The inviting, friendly atmosphere is great for those adding to their collection or coming in for their first one. Highly recommend you go here!

This place takes a tattoo experience to a whole new level. Street view pulls you in and you walk into pure elegance. The entire staff are welcoming, engaging, laid back but very professional. Josh is THE MAN! Absolutely top notch experience and most proper business! Well done Gang.. You're hard work is clearly paying off and so deserved!! Can't wait to see you again.

Jordan is an incredible artist to work with! I have three pieces by her - I always feel safe and welcome and she does stunning work. She is satisfied with nothing short of perfection!

Such a wonderful experience. Kyle did one of my first tattoos years ago. Recently he did a bigger piece for me, which looks incredible. Amazing talent and amazing growth. Watching the journey from the beginning is incredible. I can’t wait for the store to open up after a disaster of a pandemic. Sign me up to be covered.

I had a tattoo done by Kyle a couple months ago and I am absolutely obsessed with it! He was very kind, professional and did an amazing job. The shop was beautiful, clean and the other artists were very welcoming as well. I could not be any happier and I seriously am dying to come back!

I have had all of my tattoos done by Kyle and Jordan! I wanted fine line for all of the wording I got done and they did not disappoint:) Both of the staff were extremely patient and kind making it a very welcoming environment.

Rik Harley did an amazing job on my tattoo. He was very professional and clean while working on it and the finish product was exactly what I wanted. The Hive is a great place with friendly employees and atmosphere. I would recommend going there if you are looking for a high quality tattoo. Thanks very much looking forward to my next tattoo.

Unbelievable staff and Kyle’s artwork is unbelievable he did my very first tattoo on my leg and it meant the world to me as it was a piece for my grandfather who had passed and he absolutely nailed it 100%. He’s the only artist I trust to do anything on me. would recommend Kyle and the hive for any tattoo needs!!

Shawnacee Loxton

I emailed Rik looking to book a larger thigh piece, he got back to me right away and was able to totally capture my ideas perfectly and add his input to make sure my tattoo looked great! The day of the tattoo I was nervous but Rik reassured me and made me feel totally at ease! I had such a great experience at The Hive, everyone was so friendly and Rik did a great job on my thigh peice and gave some great advice on positioning the tattoo on my leg and size. Rik’s apprentice Maggie was great company, also! Couldn’t have had a more positive experience or be happier with how my tattoo turned out!

Madison Hoover

Jordan was amazing from start to finish! I reached out to her with an idea in mind and she absolutely nailed it. I was extremely impressed by her work from start to finish and I love my tattoo so much. I will definitely be getting more done by her when they are able to open again!! Welcome to Sarnia, you will love it here!
