Three Kings Brooklyn is the Greenpoint shop of Three Kings Tattoo, a group of tattoo studios founded in 2008 with locations in Brooklyn, Long Island and London. The Brooklyn shop is at 572 Manhattan Avenue and takes walk-ins every day. It does tattooing only, no piercing.
Eleven resident artists work here, across American traditional, Japanese, black and grey and colour realism, anime, blackwork and sigil work, and guest artists visit on a rotating basis. Owner Chris Koutsis has been tattooing in New York for 25 years.
To get tattooed, request a consultation or call the shop. A deposit holds the appointment ($100 for a single session, $200 for larger pieces) and comes off the final session.
