Reviews of Fortune Teller Tattoo

I could not recommend fortune teller tattoos more. I was pretty nervous because this was my first tattoo but Ivan was GREAT - made me feel comfortable, was quick, and created my design perfectly. The price was very reasonable. I’m over a month post tattoo and I still love it! I’ll for sure be a return customer!

Allison Perrotta

If I could give this shop more stars I would! TW/SH I went here for a coverup of some old self harm scars as a first tattoo. Doug Von did such an amazing job interpreting my ideas into a workable and beautiful tattoo and making me feel comfortable as he walked me through every step of the process. I asked for a small change to the drawing and it was no problem at all. I will be back when I want another tattoo!

Anna Youngmann

A little moth and moon tattoo adapted from Alicia's flash designs. Super impressed with her and with my experience at this shop!

Ashley Poirier

I have been here a couple times. The space is amazing, the atmosphere is great and the staff are all wonderful! I will continue to go here and recommend them to everyone!

Jenna Guiggey

Very clean and open shop, had a great experience being tattooed by Alicia! She’s very calm in her energy and does awesome work.

Taka Ranucci

Really clean, cool and professional studio! I had Laura do my first tattoo for me and couldn't be happier! She's super chill and was more than willing to re-work the art until I was happy with it. Totally recommend her and the shop!

Kelly McMullin

I sent Alex a couple of photos of what I was envisioning ahead of time and he totally nailed it! I can definitely tell that he took his time to customize this piece, and he was also extremely receptive and accommodating to any changes that I requested. The facility is very nice and it was easy to find. Prices are also reasonable. Highly recommend!

My first time (11/29/20) at fortune teller was awesome. There's a nice parking area so finding parking wasn't difficult. I had my tattoo scheduled for a few weeks with Alex since they are taking appointment only for safety precautions. The space is bright, beautifully inviting, and clean. They are following all safety standards and do require a mask. I felt comfortable the whole time. All the stations were clean and free of clutter. I was the only person there getting a tattoo at the time so it was nice to be able to talk to Alex who was very friendly and professional. I got my first traditional style with some variations. Alex took the time to design exactly what I wanted and gave me plenty of time the day of to make any edits and had 3 different sizes already printed for me. I'll be back in December to get a tattoo from Laura, and hopefully more from Alex in the future! Thanks for a great experience guys!

I saw Erin a while back for a coverup. She was so, so rad to work with! Her work is lovely, and I am no longer embarrassed to show my arm in public because now I have a killer one-of-a-kind eyeball-demon plant. The shop itself is pristine and welcoming. It is open-concept, but I felt safe and comfortable. All artists and clients were masked and following guidelines. I would absolutely recocmend this place for anyone getting larger, multi-session pieces because it is so pleasant. Are you going to spend a lot of money? Yes, but my dude, you pay for good work, and this is good work. Take it from me, the person who has spent my 30s covering up the cheap tattoos I got in my 20s: Just find a good artist - and if you start at this shop, you won't have to go far.

The experience I had at Fortune Teller Tattoo was incredible. The shop itself is clean, spacious and finely decorated. The team there went above and beyond to make sure that everything was sanitary and safe. My tattoo artist is Doug Von, and he is a absolute dream to work with. Thoughtful, kind, safe and friendly, Doug has the talent to work with any idea you bring to him, and treats each and every project with profound enthusiasm. He works hard to make sure that you are happy with your tattoo, that you are comfortable and that your experience together is a genuinely fun time. Doug’s line work and color is some of the best that I’ve ever seen, and he does consistently clean, sharp and spotless work. The end result is always a piece that I treasure, and a refreshing experience where I feel listened to and respected.

It’s a shame I live in Louisiana and won’t get to frequent this shop more than once every year or so. First appearances mean everything to me when I walk into a shop looking for art. I have turned quickly on my heel after opening the door to shops around the country for various reasons. Fortune Teller sets itself apart immediately. The open space is very well laid out, extremely clean, and very inviting. To me it felt less like a tattoo shop and more like an art studio. Kudos on capturing that ambiance! Alex is extremely professional. On time, very friendly, and very talented. It’s very obvious to me that tattooing is not a job for him, but a unique way to express his art, and he is clearly passionate about it. While I didn’t get the chance to visit with the other artists in the shop, I got a chance to catch glances of their work, and they all seem to share a very similar talent love for what they do. I will absolutely return for more ink, cannot recommend this shop and these artists enough.

Andrea Delsart

Great open , bright space. Very clean and sanitary. Alex worked with my ideas for design-created exactly what I wanted and quickly edited a few details to better fit my vision. Extremely happy with the result. Oh! And very quick responses also- no waiting to days for a person to get back to you !!

Selah Pro

I have been here in Portland Maine for 6 months and decided to get my last tattoo... I definitely picked the right place... Fortune Teller Tattoo has an awesome atmosphere and very clean. My tattoo artist Alex definitely did an outstanding job on my tattoo. He is very professional, listens to what you want, and takes pride in his work.... I’m very happy with the results and I made the right choice to get my last tattoo done by a very talented artist.... Awesome job Alex!

K Adams

Literally one of my favorite places to be in Portland. The space is clean, open, and has a really laid back professional atmosphere. All of the artist are super friendly to talk too. They’re also very active on Instagram so it’s always great to see what the shop is up to! I got my first shaded piece from Laura here and I loved her work so much I got a second flash design and am already planning out the next two. Definitely the place to be for a great experience and amazing art!

Destinee Hurson

LOVED my experience with Alex! He was very professional, and created a tattoo for me that went above and beyond my expectations. Quick communication through the booking process and was there to answer any of my questions I had along the way. Place was clean, spotless, comfortable and inviting - really everything you could hope for out of a tattoo shop. Would highly recommend, and I look forward to going back!

Abbie

I absolutely love this place! Everyone in there is so nice and welcoming. Laura has so far done 2 amazing tattoos for me and They came out exactly how I imagined and better!! One being a remembrance tattoo for my grandmother that recently passed away and Laura did it exactly how I wanted and I will cherish it forever. I get compliments on my tattoos that’s shes done almost everyday! And I recommend this place to everyone! I definitely plan on getting many more tattoos done here 😁😁

Nick Rountree

Portland has a lot of great Tattoo shops, Fortune Teller is one of them. All of my pieces are done by Doug Von but I've looked at and appreciated the work of all the artists here. Everyone working out of Fortune Teller is a highly skilled, talented artist capable of helping a client realize their vision. Friendly, professional, and clean, this shop is an ideal place to receive a unique permanent piece of art on your body.

Dave Tea

One of the best tattoo experiences I've ever had. The shop was clean and inviting. All of the artists were knowledgeable and friendly. Our conversation came naturally. Alex was truly professional. His work is meticulous and his lines are second to none. I recommend this shop to anyone who asks about ink.

W R

Great environment to be tattooed! All the artists were so friendly. Very clean and a good amount of space. I was tattooed by Erin Mealing and she did a wonderful job. She was able to cover up an old snake tattoo for me and I think it was very successful! I will definitely be coming back here for other tattoos.

Breanna Eschmann

Made a trip to the Portland shop— it definitely didn’t disappoint! Wicked relaxed, yet professional environment. And clean! It’s a place you can go to and feel safe as you’re being tattooed. And as always, Laura and her art continue to amaze me! She is super personable, and very accommodating. If you haven’t stopped in yet, this shop is definitely worth a visit!!

Evie Morales

I first met Alex about three years ago when he was in New York. He did my first tattoo and I loved it so much that he has been the only artist to do my other tattoos. I have nine and counting. I even drove up to Maine to get my last one and will go back soon. The place is welcoming, clean and has a great vibe. You definitely cannot go wrong with the amazing artists at Fortune Teller Tattoo.

Sabrina Rocheleau

Alex was amazing. Kept great conversation during my session and I left there with an amazing piece of art. I will definitely be going back to him for some more work. Easily the best tattoo I have on my body and I have a good amount! Couldn't be happier. The studio was clean and welcoming. Already telling my friends about this place.

C. Lowell

Laura gave me my first tattoo (a big color thigh piece), and she was amazing and patient. She really listened to what I wanted, and I absolutely love the result. The space itself is also gorgeous. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

Madeleine Scholz

After my original go to artist moved away I had been looking for a new tattoo studio to make my new “home”. This has easily become that studio! I’ve been tattooed by both Alex and Laura and have chatted with Ivan and they are all so nice and so professional. The place is comfy and clean and their work is amazing. Plus free parking! You can’t beat them!

Charlotte Doherty

I’ve been getting tattooed by Ivan for 6 years now and absolutely love working with him. Whenever I have an abstract idea he can help me pull it together to create an amazing tattoo. Having gotten tattooed before meeting Ivan I will say his work has healed the best. His time and talent is worth the investment. The Portland shop is classy, clean and everyone is very friendly. I’ve been really impressed with the shops response to COVID and felt totally safe and at ease getting tattooed during the pandemic. If you’re looking to get some ink definitely reach out to Ivan or anyone at Fortune Teller Tattoo. You will not be disappointed!

Madeline Jackson

This is a special place. Laura is an amazing artist. Her attention to detail and intuition make her an artist to travel for. The shop is spectacular. It is super clean, bright and airy, and most importantly it is welcoming. I am very satisfied with the tattoo I had done and I will be back for more!

James Wauer

Really cool shop; spacious and clean. Three artists working about 10 feet apart with walls between them. Laura, who did my piece was really fast and did great work. It was my first tattoo and she made me feel comfortable.

Ken Bernard

I was a Fortune Teller patron in Vermont and now I’m a patron in Portland! They all do amazing work, run a clean and beautiful shop, and they’re some of the most fun, professional people I’ve met. I’ll never go anywhere else for a tattoo! If you’ve got an idea, they’ll make it come to life. Just finished a leg piece with Alex and he’s an amazing artist with great vision. His work is even more killer than I imaged when I pitched it to him.

Gina M.

This shop is super cool, and I'm so in love with my tattoo from Laura! She worked with me to get the design and placement exactly how I envisioned, and the whole experience was comfortable, professional, and not at all intimidating. I definitely recommend this place!

Traci Schilling

Bright shop with a good vibe. Laura is a true professional. She's a great artist with wonderful ideas and is very easy to work with. She translated my vague request into something more than I had envisioned! I completely love my tattoo and will be a returning client.

Krista Lucht

Can’t recommend Doug highly enough. Just got my second piece from him and it has exceeded all of my expectations. Aside from being insanely talented, he makes you feel comfortable and heard from consult to end of appointment. The space is open, bright, and clean. If you’re lucky like me, you’ll be positioned just below the sky light where you can watch the clouds pass by as you get tattooed—how relaxing!

Tina P

Alex is amazing. Talented beyond belief. Always takes my ideas and comes out with an awesome tattoo. Today I received #5 from Alex. I'll definitely be back.

Allister Fae

I always love seeing Laura for my tattoos. I’ve been her client for a few years now and every piece from her is absolutely beautiful. The new Maine location is spacious and inviting. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for top quality artists!

Michelle

If you’re looking to get tattooed in Portland, you have to come here. Laura Cui took my tattoo vision and made it more perfect than I could have imagined. The space itself is really cool, and Laura made feel so welcomed and comfortable. Definitely check it out!

Maura Kenney

I recently started working on a few pieces with Laura. She did a consult where we sketched things out and talked through my ideas. I loved how professional she was and how thoughtful her questions were. The finished product is beautiful. She really brought my idea to life. Thank you, Laura! Everyone in the shop was great. (Suggestion: They all post their work on instagram, which is how I decided on Laura. I’d strongly recommend looking there. Their work speaks for itself!)

Liz W

I’ve had two tattoos by Laura and I constantly get compliments on them. Her style is unique, she is ultra professional and the studio itself is pristine. Very fair prices especially for the quality of the work.

Jordan Ramsey

My wife and I were on the hunt for some anniversary tattoos. We tried to make a reservation at another tattoo parlor that shall remain nameless who didn’t get back to us for a month. I then saw Alex’s work on Instagram and sent him a dm. He got back to me within minutes. He’s either really dedicated or really addicted to his phone! But we chatted and came up with tattoo ideas and I booked two weeks out. The tattoo is amazing! He did such a great job and fit it into my budget. I am going back for color next month and if you havent seen Alex’s work then check out @passaperatattoos on Instagram. I am incredibly excited to finish this tattoo and have fortune teller finish out the sleeve. Hit them up! They are very friendly and willing to help you out. They are experienced and the shop is bright, huge, and inviting. Not to mention you can go bowling next door when you’re done.

Locey Family

I took my daughter here for her 1st tattoo and her and I got matching ones. We saw Alex and we plan on going back to see him very soon. Very patient and understanding.. very clean and comfortable. I have many tattoos and Alex is the best I have had..

Hannah Riegler

I got a tattoo with Laura and she was amazing! Very accommodating and professional. Love my new tattoo! Highly recommend

Brooke Long

Laura made my first tattoo experience super comfortable and awesome. I'd highly recommend her and any of the artists there! The shop is incredibly clean and laid back.

Jay Stonerook

Absolutely love this studio and would recommend it to anyone. The place is super clean and absolutely following COVID safety guidelines. I got a flash piece from Alex Passapera and am so in love with it. He was super professional and responded to my emails and set up our sessions super quick. I definitely have plans to return for more work in the future!

Gabe Natale

Awesome shop! I made the 2 hour drive from Boston to get work done by Alex and it was more than worth it. Great people, environment, and followed social distancing protocols to a T which made me feel super safe. Will definitely be back soon.

Joe Deschaine

I randomly went to Fortune Teller Tattoo because I wanted to give support to a new business, and I think I made a pretty good move. Alex got me right in there, listened to my requests on how to personalize the piece from his flash, and then knocked this beauty out in a very short amount of time. Very professional, very clean, and very serious about his work. I actually hit it off with everyone in the shop at the time and invited them out to my gameshow that night. Not only did they show up, they sat in the front row and were fantastic audience members! 10/10, would recommend, will go back. Thanks, Fortune Teller folks!

Doug Howard

What a find. Alex was my artist. Did some custom Boston Bruins work for me and nailed it first try. Extremely talented and creative. You can tell passionate about his work. Great clean shop. Highly recommended !!

Bradi Sladek

If I could rate this shop 10 stars I would. I am constantly astounded by the work put out by this shop. I had a shoulder piece done by Laura last year and am still so impressed by how amazing it came out. I am currently seeing Alex once a month to work on my leg sleeve and he is super chill and so nice. Honestly unless I move I won't be getting tatted anywhere else.

Isaac Wade

Great shop! When I went in it was only me and the artist in the shop, Andrew was super professional and gave me an amazing tatt! He worked with me through Instagram & in person to make sure the flash drawing I was getting fit exactly to my liking. Will definitely return for more work soon!

Emma Flaherty

FTT is amazing! I have collected several stunning pieces from Laura over the last few years and I cannot wait to keep working with her. Laura’s designs are incredibly unique & detailed and I couldn’t be happier with the tattoos I’ve gotten from her! FTT is friendly, professional, & easy to work with!

Nick Zabenko

Went here for a tattoo. They’re just getting started over here. Seeing the stuff they plan to put in there and hearing the bigger plans from Alex makes me know this place is going somewhere. Very professional and clean. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Definitely made a returning client.

Paige Auber

clean, friendly and inviting. the space is beautiful, welcoming and the staff is more than willing to listen to your ideas. Laura is such a talented artist and I can’t wait to get more work done by her!

William Durst

So happy to see my favorite shop in Burlington Vt open up a location in Maine. Worked with Alex and he is professional, very detail oriented and an incredible artist. Cheers!

dean a.

Got a little flash from Alex and he was great. Highly recommend this shop—clean, bright, and with amazing tattoo artists! Will definitely be coming back!

Nick Doyle

I was in here the other day. Cool shop with a friendly vibe and talented artists. Doesn’t creep me out like some places. While I was in the parking lot I even got to meet a cute dog named spaghetti. Best day ever.

Jed Siripun

Got my tattoo from Alex about 2 weeks ago and it's healed great. Clean lines and shop. Friendly and professional!

Sequoia Feinson

Wicked sick place. Got a stunner here about a year ago and thought I’d never be able to wear bike shorts again 😂. Always professional, great work! I’ll return when the dust clears after this “pandemic.”

I'd been waiting years to find the right artist for two half sleeves. Working with Laura to have my vision come together was easy, and I love the final pieces.
