Keys on Kites is pretty good with friendly staff / easy to book with parking in the back. Body Art & Soul only does tattoos - it’s is on state street where Zees used to be is also a decent place. parking can suck though depending on the day.

Hope doesn't have a piercer.

You're right. The title said "where to get a tattoo" but the text said piercer, so I'm not sure what they're looking for.

I’ve always been a fan of the upper arm/shoulder area, but I hear the retro tramp stamp is coming back

Darkside in East Haven. Another legacy place by virtue of the fact they have great artists

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Lovecraft Tattoo near Sleeping Giant. Very talented artists, and clean. I’ve personally gone to them for years.

Ask for Nick at Burning hearts in Hamden. Only person in the area I trust for piercings. Also recommend black diamond and stay true but they aren’t in new haven area

I got mine at lucky soul in Woodbridge, it’s basically in Westville. Clean and very friendly

Feel free to disregard my comment (because I haven’t been to this place myself just yet) but i’ve heard some good things about Dali Tattoos on Whalley.

Keys on kites can be rather flexible with times you need an appointment. Call or walk in to chat with the artists and look at their portfolios
