In Short – This chic East Village body art jewelry shop and tattoo parlor is owned and operated by Maria Tash, aka piercing artist to the stars. She's supplied body jewelry to the likes of Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, and she even pierced Mickey Rourke's eyebrow in this very store. The shop is elegant and spacious, and the display cases feature designer navel pieces, earrings, necklaces and more, all designed by Maria. The tattoo artist at Venus, Ronda Xanthos, is no slouch either, as she has almost 20 years of experience.

Amazing Job
by akd424
I got my tattoo done last week by Logan. I could not have been happier with the service and with the job that he did. I got a short quote done on my foot. He helped me pick out the right spot so that the tattoo would not fade/look HORRIBLE after a little while. He was SO patient considering I asked him to write out the words in different fonts five times! He was extremely nice and funny and really helped me to relax and feel comfortable. He made sure I was okay with everything before he did it and was extremely helpful and knew what he was talking about, and was also an amazing artist! Seriously, if you want to get a tattoo done GO TO LOGAN! I have nothing but good things to say it was overall a great experience!

True Tattoo Art
by Adrian C
I went to Venus to get pricing info on a tattoo. I spoke with Logan Aguilar. Even on initial impression he was extremely professional. The pricing is pretty much comparable for any good tattoo. After looking over some of Logan's art I decided I wanted him to do this tattoo for me. Luckily, I was able to get in the next day to get the ink. The picture I had given was very pixelated when blown up. 4 hours of ink later and I was blown away. Logan took this crappy image and made the most beautiful tattoo. The ink has definition and depth to it. I'm not going to say it was painless, because no tattoo is, but Logan made it as painless as he could. The ink could not be better and I am so impressed with his true art. The only problem I have is that all of my other tattoos now look like they were done by kids compared to this new piece. I highly recommend Logan Aguilar for any work you are considering.
- Pros: Soft touch tattooing, great pricing, true art

Amazing Tattoo
by Lara Elena
I got a tattoo on my neck by Logan Aguilar of a Claddagh on my neck. He drew it up beautifully, and it came out amazing. It barely hurt at all. I am planning on going back soon for another one. I am 110% satisfied :)
- Pros: Best tatttoo I've ever gotten
- Cons: None
