Bloodlines Gallery & Tattoo Studio

I’ve been tattooed three times now by Dmitry and his work is THE BEST. The prices are comparable to other great tattoo shops and you definitely get what you paid for… (or more!) I have an entire back piece that Dmitry has been working on and I can tell you it is far and above most of what I’ve seen. They are all also very professional, unlike some other artists you’ll find out there. The shop is SUPER clean and they will always treat you amazingly. Definitely the best place in Pittsburgh to get tattooed. I know — I’ve been tattooed in probably 3 or 4 other places before this. Never again!

I’ve known Seth for a few years now, and it’s been a goal to be tattooed by him. If you’re not familiar, Seth is an incredible up-​and-​coming artist. His work is focused on realism, but his talents are diverse. He pays exceptional attention to detail, and he’s truly a kind person. He’s also an incredible piercer. He pierced my nose, and it’s so perfectly positioned. I couldn’t be happier with his work.
I emailed him months ago to get a spot. We discussed what I was interested in and why. A day before my appointment, he sent me a mock up. When I showed up for my appointment, we talked quite extensively and got started.
A few things to note about this shop:
They are incredibly laid back.
The shop is probably as clean as it can get before being a sterilized-​scientific lab. I was super impressed with how clean it was. The bathroom was pretty clean too, and that’s important to me.
They play a lot of various music. It’s fun.
Art is everywhere, and that makes it an aesthetically appealing environment.
Seth is a slower tattooist, in my experience, but the work is so worth it. He wants to make sure you’re absolutely happy with your result. I definitely was.
I can’t wait to come back for more ink. If you haven’t been in the shop, pay these fine folks a visit! They are incredibly talented, and you won’t regret any ink you get here.

One of the nicest shops I’ve ever been in. Super clean, staff was great and the artists are all phenomenal.
Fiancée and I drove up from North Carolina just to get tattooed by Seth. And the man did not disappoint. Ended up being a 13 hour day for him and he was a rockstar the whole time. We love our new art. Thanks again Seth!

Stop looking for a tattoo shop and go here! Seriously amazingly talented artists, all of them! I CANNOT wait to go back!
This is a a newer shop and within the past few months they expanded and added a gallery. Super cool inside and they have very interesting artwork all over. Each station is kept SUPER clean as well as the rest of the place. There is a nice sitting area in the front so you are comfy while you or your guests wait.
I was tattooed by Dimitry. My brother was the one who found him and he has almost an entire arm sleeve by him. His work is incredible. He is known for his realism, so he is your guy if you want that type of tattoo! He is super Russian with a thick accent! He really takes his time to make sure the tattoo he is putting on you is right and fits the area of your body. My tattoo took about 8 – 9 hours total and I sat for that entire time. He isn’t light so be prepared for that! Wasn’t too back for me though, I don’t mind tattoo pain at all! He was so cool to watch tattoo because of the way he does it. It slowly comes together where when he first starts it looks nothing like you think it will end up like.
I get compliments all the time on this particular tattoo. People cannot believe how real and bright it is, still to this day! It is almost a year old but it still looks like it was done last week.
They are also starting to have guest spots here so be sure to check and see if your favorite artist or someone you super love is going to be in!
I plan on coming back and getting tattooed by the other artists. They all have amazing work and know exactly what they are doing so I know I will never be dissapointed!
