Village Diva

Turn left at Christopher Street and you’ve found Village Diva, a tattoo shop at 117 Christopher St, New York, NY 10014.

Inside the unassuming storefront, they focus on clean linework, fine shading, and bold black-and-grey pieces. If you need script or a single-needle portrait, they can handle it. Curved designs wrap around torsos or hug limbs, while geometric setups stay sharp and symmetrical. Color placement follows the body’s natural flow and fades heal cleanly over time.

Ring the bell or dial (212) 242-7840 when you’re ready to sketch ideas on paper.

Print the directions from their map before you head over; the walk from the 1 train is quick.
