Dark Matter Collective

Wadezilla is the man! My go-to artist, but EVERYBODY here is GREAT! Great prices, knowledgeable, safe, sanitary, and you'll be back for more. Started as a walk-in, and wound up getting 10 new pieces in 2 months! Best shop in town! 💯

Amazing!! They took me as a walk-in! Seth did a fantastic job! I definitely recommend going there.

Seth did my tattoo & he did an amazing job. Everyone was super friendly. Will definitely go back!

Great artistry n very convenient n working with wat U want over what they wanna do ,great art recommendations as well to make it YOURS

All staff are super friendly and great to work with. Jason is a great artist and does wonderful work and perfectly styled my design. Definitely recommend any artist at this studio!

Jason was wonderful. He did a matching tattoo with my daughter. She had hers put on her forearm and mine was on my back. He did a great job. We both love our tattoos

Will Philbeck is my artist and he is great!! I’ve seen many different artists in the area and he is by far the best. I won’t go anywhere else now. He is extremely talented and very pleasant to work with! Highly recommend!!

The most at ease experience I've ever had in a tattoo shop. Big Will did a cover up for me. He was helpful and kind and guided my idea to make sure my old tattoo would be covered properly and at the same time making sure I would be happy with the end result. All the artists there were friendly. The shop was very clean. My tattoo is beautiful. This will be my tattoo spot from now on!

My daughter called and they were very helpful

This is the only shop that I go to, to get any work done. The shop is clean, I love the vibe of the place. The décor is tasteful, and compliments the artists and their work, well. The atmosphere is welcoming, fun, open, light. The artists who work here, are phenomenal. They're easy to talk to, bounce ideas off of, they're honest and open with you. It doesn't matter if you're getting a 10 minute tattoo, or a 6 hour tattoo, you'll leave there well taken care of, and feeling like you just made a friend. I personally see Jason, his artwork and skill speak for itself. He's amazing. He has a light hand, easy to talk to, open-minded, and flexible with appointments and ideas. Jason makes sure I'm comfortable, takes breaks when needed, and makes sure I leave there with all of the instructions/information I need to care for my new tattoo.

CLEAN!<3 Professional. Easy going atmosphere. Artists are very knowledgeable and skilled at paying close attention to the most meticulous and intricate details. Enjoyed conversing with my artist, the owner, Jason, as well as Stump. Made me feel completely at ease. Stop stressing. Look no further! Do yourself a favor and just call up DMC :) My fiancé and I are very happy we did <3

This place is darn cool I'll tell u whuat

We went to Big Will, he did Amazing work. We will definitely be going back. I got my fingers done. He was very cautious on his placement.

Went to Dark Matter Collective to see Jason Dunavan about a tattoo to memorialize my parents’ passing. Consult was professional, and the tattoo environment was clean as a whistle. His work is phenomenal. I will visit no other place in the Champaign Urbana area for tattooing.

Had A Fantastic Experience with Stump he has the best Hand In Tattooing. Very Clean and Stump uses the best technique and I have never been disappointed.

Amazing service. Got Tattooed by Jason and he did an outstanding job. He made sure I was comfortable and was very considerate. Very clean in there as well!

Seth was very professional and his lines are some of the sharpest I've seen.

Gone here twice last time was for a memorial tattoo & Jason did an amazing job! Highly recommend

I love Dark Matter Collective! The guys are all chill and do great work. Special shout-out to Wade...you should see him for your next piece!

Nice clean and welcoming environment, very nice artists. AMAZING work. Will definitely return for more work.
