about us
Poison Ivy Ink all began in August of 2021 in a small private studio opened by Emaline Taylor. It was started with the intentions of providing something to the tattoo community that can often be far and few, a safe comfortable space for anyone to come in and get quality ink. After a few months in the private studio setting figuring out the vision and saving funds Emaline opened her first store front location in Tampa; it grew very quickly and shortly there after she opened her second location in Saint Pete.
Since its founding Poison Ivy Ink has truly taken the Tampa Bay tattoo industry by storm and has become a hot spot for women and the LGBTQ+ community looking for new ink and piercings. With an absolutely amazing group of piercers and tattooers, each varies in different styles, specialties, and personalities every client gets an authentic genuine experience when they walk through our doors; its no wonder there are over 750 five star reviews from clients sharing their experiences with Poison Ivy Ink.
Whether you are looking for a walk-in tattoo, to book an appointment, or to hang out at a flash event you have to come give Poison Ivy Ink a try. Offering a unique place for you to transform into your unique self you will wish you had come to get stabbed sooner. ​

-Gently remove with warm water.
-Use antibacterial soap to clean area.
-Apply whatever lotion/oil of your preference to moisturize as needed. (NO PERFUMES, NO AQUAPHOR; We recommend Lubiderm, Aveno, or sheabutter)

-If at any point the second skin begins to leak or is not sealed please remove.

​
Healing without Second Skin
-Clean tattoo twice a day with antibacterial soap
-Apply very thin layer of aquaphor to the tattoo as needed for the first 2-3 days.
-After day 3 PLEASE switch to non-fragranced lotion or oil of your preference.
-Too little moisture can dry your tattoo up and lead to fading, and too much moisture can cause infections so please be mindful throughout the healing process.
Piercing Healing Guide
Remember to wash your piercing 2x a day with Sterile Saline Solution.
Wash hands prior to cleaning and spray Q-Tip with Sterile Saline to remove any debris.
Touch your piercings as little as possible, and avoid twisting, turning and rotating your jewelry
Do not sleep on piercings and avoid snagging or causing trauma to area.
Do not change jewelry until your piercing is fully healed
To make sure you are downsizing and changing jewelry at the right time wait 4-6 weeks and visit your piercer for a shorter post or jewelry change.
Do not use alcohol, peroxide, tea tree oil, or any soaps to clean your piercing
*Healing varies from person to person; if piercing is irritated or infected do not remove the jewelry and reach out to your piercer immediately*
Client Reviews
‘Absolutely gorgeous work by people who go the extra mile to make sure you love your tattoo. I was given ample opportunity to ask questions and was given detailed answers, I felt completely at ease with the professionalism and care I received. Emaline was meticulous, attention to detail, brought my very specific idea to life—I am very pleased! 
 Amazing artist. This is the only place I ever want to get tattooed at ever again! Friendly staff and an extremely clean environment. Good vibes”
- Antonio Calos
"Julia did my first two tattoos back in January and I recently saw her zodiac constellation flash on her Instagram. Me and two of my friends went today to get them and our experience was awesome! Julia was really easy to get in touch with and responded pretty quickly to our messages, and was also able to fit in another person last minute. Everything was very clean and sterile, she changed everything in between each of us and made sure our placement and sizing was exactly what we wanted. The other artists in the shop were very friendly and made us feel welcome as well. I will definitely be coming back again in the future for my next tattoos!"
- Mandy Latimer
“I found this tattoo shop through instagram, and I’ve got to say that this was the best experience I could have as someone getting my first big tattoo. From the moment you step through the door, the vibe is positive, comforting, and upbeat from all staff! Emaline created a stellar tattoo for me that was beyond what I could imagine. Her talent and professionalism speak for itself and I will definitely be back!”
- Kristen
“Got my helix pierced about a week ago by Destine and it is healing so great! She made me feel super comfortable and was very kind. Love my piercing so much and will definitely come back to the shop in the future!”
