In 1997, when tattooing was legalized in New York after a 36-year ban, friends Michelle Myles and Brad Fink opened their first parlor, on the Lower East Side. The duo has made a name for itself by inking musicians such as Joan Jett and Boy George. This new locale is just seven blocks south of the original, and features pressed-tin ceilings and Art Deco–tiled floors. Drop in or make an appointment to get yourself stamped. Tattoos start at $100, with custom designs costing $200 per hour. Vegans will rejoice at the animal-free inks available.
