Summer is winding down and as always there’s a
lot going on at Ink Assassins. We’ve got all new
tattoo portfolios up from all of our artists. Besides
the talented likes of Metal
Mike, Jake Miller, and Thorns there are a few names
that you might notice that are new to our crew here.
Over the years we’ve worked hard to bring into
our shop guest tattoo artists from all over the country
to leave their mark on Erie. Well it turns out that
a few of them loved Erie so much that they’re
back full time. These hard working guys are putting
out some amazing looking tattoos that are nothing short
of world class. So please stop on by and give a warm
“Welcome back to Erie” to Dillon
Hild, Justin Jarrell, & Suga Bear. Check out
their tattoo work, you won’t be disappointed.
On August 2nd the staff here at Ink
Assassins partook in the “Tattooing
to Save Babies” organized by Black Anchor
Tattoo in Denton, MD. All proceeds from that day were
donated to the March of Dimes. So a huge thank you to
all of our kind clients who came in that day and helped
out. Between all of the tattoo shops involved over $10,000
was raised.
In piercing aftercare news Ink Assassins
is now carrying H2Ocean.
H2Ocean Piercing Spray helps to cleanse all your piercings
and body modifications. H2Ocean helps to safely remove
dried discharge and lymph secretions when used every
3-4 hours on your piercings and body modifications.
You can pick up a 4oz. bottle at Ink Assassins for almost
half of what other area stores.
We have a few new sweet shirt designs
in stock for all of you out there looking for some new
gear. You can order them right here from our website
of just stop on by our headquarters. We’d love
to see your smiling faces! In fact we're actually running
a coupon for a FREE T-SHIRT right now. Click HERE
for the merch section to see more photos and order online.

Coming up really soon on Friday, May 30th is a really
great Charity Art Show / Auction @ the Brewerie in downtown

mediums of art including paintings, photography, and
even tattoo time. Many talented local and national artists
will be featured. All proceeds will be donated to Safenet
Domestic Violence Safety Network here in Erie (www.safeneterie.org).
Much props to Eerie Eric, Metal Mike, and Jake Miller

cause. It should be a really neat event so stop on by
