    One of the best experiences I’ve ever had. I worked with Katya and she was incredible. The place itself was very clean, relaxing, and professional. The aesthetics of the place, from the outside, looked a bit «different» than what resonates with me, but once inside, it felt very welcoming for everyone. The experience was so pleasant that it made me start thinking of the next tattoo I want to get!

    An earthy likeness of my familiar, the paw he always placed upon me, the mark of a witch from his protection charm, and a life force leaf claim my sacred vessel till our dusts rest together. Fetch me, sweet CoCo. Tethered to the other side, I’m in the dark of my moon waiting for the earthly chain to break. I’ll see you soon. 🕯️🐶🕯️ My first, yet I’ve wanted a tattoo 30 years before finding commitment. Sodam (do follow his profile on IG) of Black Serum is my inscriber. Though intending to choose a female body artist, the elegant flow of style and pet portrait rendering in his art resonated above all. Sodam is respectful toward women and a devoted professional. I adore his work, and found him to be a perfect collaborator. He brought every aspect of my story to symbolism, beautifully. Sodam’s design combined from my refrence photos resulted in an artwork as personal and meaningful as the accumulation of living with the love who brought me to this day. He holds a swift focus in detailed illustration and creates a comfortable tattoo experience. One can sense he is in creative bliss. Relaxing as a spa visit, it’s a clean well kept workspace. After, we followed up with one another post initial healing weeks and scheduled a complementary retouch and review of aftercare. If you are considering a tattoo, I greatly recommend Sodam of Black Serum for the finest experience. 🕯️🐶🕯️

    I got my second ever tattoo, a fine line flower piece, with Katya and I am very happy with the experience. Everything was comfortable and her skill is superb. Katya helped turn my ChatGPT-sketch into something truly beautiful and refined, and worked with me on the placement and size until we arrived at the perfect solution. Zero bleeding. Even the recovery period has been easy, with clear instructions and no pain at all. I will absolutely be back to Black Serum (and specifically Katya) for my next piece.
