Tattoo artist Melanie Morreale (also known as 'Mel') is also the owner at Rite of Passage, but above all else considers herself an artist.  She attended art school in the 1990's, and has been a professional tattoo artist for over 15 years now. From a very young age her family and friends have known her for her passion for being creative.  She loves all types of artistic expression including making stained glass, and doing photography. She has done all types of tattooing and has a reputation of providing a professional, friendly and clean approach to the art form. She really enjoys technical tattooing most of all. In 2004 she also started working for a dermatology group in the Rochester, NY region.  She is capable and qualified to do reconstructive tattooing which includes camouflage, areola repigmentation, eyebrows, eyeliner etc. which is a relatively unique skill set in the region.   ​For a free consultation with Melanie, or any of our other artist, contact Rite Of Passage Tattoo today  at (585) 742-2280  and/or simply stop in during our regular hours of operations as listed below to set up an appointment.  We appreciate the opportunity to serve you and we hope to see you soon.
