First let me share that I am born and raised in LES! I moved recently and came back to NYC for the weekend. I stopped at Addiction just to look around and check out the art. Spoke with Jon Brady, the nicest guy ever! We discussed the tattoo I wanted to get done, I showed him a reference I had and he truly made it his own for me. The shop itself is very well maintained, nice and clean. All needles were brand new and sealed, he opened everything up in front of me and walked me through his process. I have 6 tattoos already and am familiar, but I appreciated that he took the time to go over it with me. I felt totally as ease. I had a chance to chat with other staff there and they were all very nice and friendly. Would definitely go back and I highly recommend seeing Jon Brady :)

TERRIBLE!!!!!!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!!!! MY TATTOO WAS INFECTED THE MINUTE HE FINISHED!! Got Tattooed By some dude called SOCKS which would be fitting for him being that his work needs to be covered by like socks would cover your feet. I had the most terrible 5 minute tattooing experience. I have 10 other tattoos on all different spots of my body, this was the most simplest tattoo I have ever got but the most painful, for no good reason. He applied so much pressure when tattooing me I literally felt as in my arm was splitting open! They are only getting 1 star from me only because I have to pick one to make this post. If it were for me he would get a negative 10!! So disgusted and disappointed. This was one of my most meaningful tattoos to date. The picture posted is 5 days later, disgusting.!
Socks is an amazing artist. The place is small but the artist make it wonderful. Great work ethic. Socks is now my regular artist. I will go where he does. Thanks alot Jason "nice front store worker" and Socks. You guys made me feel comfterble
This is my spot! I love it here! Pito (aka Fresh) is the man! He's honest and professional AF! Won't rush his work and puts his heart into everything he goes. The entire staff at Addiction NYC is dope and I highly recommended this place to anyone looking for high quality tattoos, piercings and smoking goodies! Go check it out!
Got my first helix piercing here for 35 plus tax. Initially, I thought it looked sketchy since it’s in the back of a vape shop but staff (Jason?) was very professional. He asked for ID, had me sign a waiver, cleaned all tools/needles/my ear, etc. He also explained the process very clearly and made it easy for the nervous, awkward human that I am. Ear is healing well with no signs of infection. Bonus: my friend got her first lobe piercings at the same time as me and he was very friendly and kind about her initial questions and the whole ear-piercing process. We joked about Claire’s.
Julie and Rob are highly experienced excellent artists with cool personalities to match their incredible artwork! Will definitely be going back in the future.
I used to go here for my 60 body piercings and 22 inks back in the day in the early 2000's. Great place, always brought my own drawings and used the same artist whom was/is awesome. I highly recommend them. They sell all sorts of jewelry and glassware/pipes, bongs.
I've been getting tattooed for nearly 15 years and am pretty covered at this point. Though I still hate going to most tattoo shops. Addiction is different. They are a laid back non pretentious shop. I've been back to get tattooed by Sock four times and have had a great experience each time. I even trusted them with my first "job stopper" hand tattoo, which is probably my favorite out of my nearly 50 tattoos. 10/10 would recommend.
