inked-spots/smith-street-tattoo-parlour Fifty years ago, the tattoo game in Brooklyn was a strictly blue-collar business dominated by hard men with names like one-eyed Max Pelz, Tony the Pirate, Jack Red Cloud, and Brooklyn Blackie. They were tattooers, not tattoo artists. They worked out of parlors, not art studios. They needled strong black lines and bold colors. They had a code of conduct ......
inked-spots/elm-street-tattoo In 1990, tattooer Oliver Peck made the decision to never again wear a pair of shoes that wasn't red. "It's sort of an LSD-induced pact I made with myself," Peck explains from the floor of Elm Street Tattoo, which he opened with partner Dean Williams in 1996. In the 12 years since Elm Street opened its doors, Peck ......
inked-spots/iron-age-tattoo When tattoo veterans Brad Fink and Mark Andrews decided to open Iron Age Tattoo in 1994, they modeled the new shop after a place most people hate—the dentist. “When we opened, there were only nine shops in the St. Louis area, and they were all older and dingier,” Andrews explains over the sound of music and buzzing needles. “We ......
inked-spots/firth-street-tattoo Long gone are the sex shops and beatniks of London's Soho neighborhood.

inked-spots/keone-nunes Don’t even think about asking Keone Nunes to tattoo a dagger or dolphin on you. “All I do is Hawaiian tattoos, designs inked for various cultural reasons,” says Nunes. These designs (bold, geometric shapes) have names, meanings, prayers and can reflect the genealogy of the individual. Nunes, who has been tattooing since 1990, works nontraditionally—he has no shop ......
inked-spots/south-pacific-tattoo-co You might get a little claustrophobic in the small space of South Pacific, but it’s worth it. Owner Thomas “Wondo” Wondoloski, a Hawaii resident for 15 years, has been tattooing for 22 years and knows tattoos well. After all, his inspiration was the late tattoo legend Asa Lee Crow III. “He was like a carnival strolling down the road ......

inked-spots/perfection-tattoo Perfection Tattoo is definitely a custom shop. Located in Central Austin, and surrounded by an eclectic residential area, Perfection was opened in 1978 by Bob Moreau. Moreau passed the shop to his student Dave Lum, who then passed it to Chris Treviño, the current owner, in 1992. Treviño, known worldwide as Horimana, has garnered a well-deserved reputation for his amazing ......

Hailing from an artistic family (his father was a professional illustrator), Brooks began ......
inked-spots/diablo-rojo At 26th and Guadalupe Streets, right across from the University of Texas campus, Diablo Rojo has “probably one of the best locations in town, ” according to owner Doug Curtis. Though it’s within earshot of the school, the shop is for the most part custom, according to Curtis. But the weekends do have a tendency toward a “street shop atmosphere ......
inked-spots/kadillac-tattoo “First and foremost, we’re a neighborhood shop,” declares Cosmo, the owner of 13-year-old Kadillac Tattoo. “This ain’t no hipster hangout.” Located in the Manayunk section of Philadelphia, this clean, bright shop prides itself on being a mainstay of a neighborhood that has struggled to stay true to its blue-collar history, despite the chic shops and restaurants that have ......
inked-spots/chinatown-tattoo Walk around the streets of Philadelphia and you’ll quickly notice it’s a city that takes tattooing seri ously. “In the summer you’ll see ink all over everyone,” says Chinatown Tattoo co-owner Braden Kendall. “It crosses all genres; I’ve sleeved out two doctors recently.” The shop sees a lot of action from walk-in clients—“We do names ......
inked-spots/philadelphia-eddies-tattoo-haven Yes, you read it correctly; this shop is also called Philadelphia Eddie’s. “This was the first shop that Eddie Funk opened on Fourth Street,” explains Troy Timpel, who has owned the business along with Furry since 2002. “When he retired he offered ownership of the different locations to the guys who helped run them. We’re keeping his legacy ......
inked-spots/philly-ink Philly Ink may be off the beaten path, but it’s well worth the trip into the Port Richmond section of the city. The shop, another former Philadelphia Eddie’s, is now run by Danny Emery, who grew up just six blocks away. “I used to get chased out as a kid because I was always coming around wanting to ......
inked-spots/philadelphia-eddies For those who appreciate a walk down memory lane, there’s only one shop in town to visit: Philadelphia Eddie’s. Opened 13 years ago by (you guessed it) “Philadelphia Eddie” Funk, it was passed down five years ago to two of his longtime colleagues, Jerry Donohoe and Tom Napp. These guys are the real deal for both authentic traditional ......

inked-spots/chicago-tattoo-company “I would rather be here, than anywhere else,” says Chicago Tattoo Company’s shop manager and artist Nick Colella. “I don’t care what kind of shit goes down, as long as I am in a tattoo shop.” He adds, with a chuckle, “I’m lucky that I have a wife that understands that.” Originally opened in the ’60s by ......
inked-spots/taylor-street-tattoo Opening up a shop in Chicago’s Little Italy wasn’t easy for Keith Underwood. In fact, the Taylor Street owner has become almost as famous for the battle he faced trying to get his business open as he has for his art. “You can’t just rent and open here,” says Underwood of his difficulties. Strict laws about property ......
inked-spots/tomato-tattoo When Tomato Tattoo owner Robert Hixon set out to name his shop, he jokingly suggested an unusual moniker to his girlfriend. “In our history, tomato is symbolic of love,” he says. “So I threw it out there and the more we thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense.” The name does seem perfect for the little shop ......
inked-spots/zulu-tattoo Spirituality rules at this famed establishment, whose client list includes Montel Williams and Dennis Rodman. “Western tattooing, unfortunately, is about money,” says owner Roni Zulu. “But the art of tattooing is a very ancient, very sacred art form.” Concerned with learning and preserving the primordial cultural aspects of the craft, Zulu frequently travels to places like the Tahitian islands and ......
inked-spots/mark-mahoneys-shamrock-social-slub “People come by the store all the time just to play pool,” laughs Shamrock manager Cody McCarthy. “That’s why it’s called the ‘Social Club.’” While the shop has famously tattooed celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Bruce Willis, its real claim is being the place to go for black and gray work. “When you talk about black and gray ......
inked-spots/purple-panther-tattoo You won’t find any heavy metal music blaring or stereotypical “tough guys” (read: assholes) with needles at this unpretentious shop. Specializing in high-quality, custom work and cover-ups, owner M. Alder stresses that it’s not about attitude at the Purple Panther. “The goal is to create an environment where people feel comfortable coming in with their own ideas,” says ......
inked-spots/spotlight-tattoos The difference between Spotlight and a lot of the other shops out there is evident as soon as you walk in. “Most shops in LA, or the world even, just have Xeroxed shit on the walls,” gripes artist Charlie Roberts. But at Spotlight, Roberts points out, “We’ve got original flash.” Much of that flash, it’s important to note ......
inked-spots/primal-urge Grime talks fast, but his work takes time; his website, grimemonster.com, informs visitors that the wait to get inked is currently a whopping three years. Opening the store just over a year ago (after, Grime says, he grew tired of the “speed freaks” and “shitty landlord” he was dealing with at the now-defunct Artwork Rebels), Grime and his staff ......
inked-spots/everlasting-tattoo “We are more or less the anti-shop shop,” says Everlasting Tattoo’s Henry Lewis about this staple on the San Francisco tattoo scene. “We’re more like a fine arts tattoo gallery.” Why? To begin, there is no flash of any kind in the store. Instead the walls are decorated with paintings by the artists, many of who have had ......
inked-spots/diamond-club Run by Bill Salmon with Juni, his wife of 20 years, Diamond Club is anything but your average mom-and-pop shop. Both Salmons have spent their whole lives tattooing, mostly as a team. “Working with my wife everyday is fun stuff,” says Bill. “It’s a good time everyday.” Before opening its doors to the public just a few years ago ......
inked-spots/blackheart-tattoo When you ask Blackheart owner Scott Sylvia what sets his studio apart from the sea of shops in the Bay Area, you are likely to hear words like “established” and “tradition” somewhere in his response. And, “We don’t suck,” he says seriously. “There are only a handful of good shops left in the area,” Sylvia says with a combination ......

On the spine, there was a shield with a cross in ......
inked-people/laura-santana Laura Satana was born badass. Growing up in the Paris suburbs (think projects, not picket fences) the 31-year-old picked up her first tattoo machine at 15. The setup, a homemade scratcher piece, was a gift from gypsies she often watched tattoo her young friends, sometimes using Satana's own drawings. With machine in hand, the teenage tattooist opened up shop ......

Reply to ' L.A. ' (63 words)I never really figured true to have celebrity status. But there are also tons more shops. Spotlight tattoo on melrose is great too. Juan puente tattoos there and some other greats.
As far as high voltage goes. There are other tattooers that work there too that are not featured on any shows. Perhaps their prices are more friendly. Couldnt say ......
Reply to 'Touchy Subject... Tattoo Prices' (93 words)hey just wanted to clear something up before anyone misunderstood me...
when i referred to no-name hidden gem local tattooers, i was referring to local tattoo shops.

Reply to ' L.A. ' (150 words)yeah true is def the place to go. though im sure there are many great tattoo shops with less of a celebrity status, true's reputation is thru the roof. just dont go to high voltage. though they do great work, the prices are INSANE. im not a price shopper when it comes to tattoos, but i also dont appreciate ......

Reply to 'Would You Ever Get A Tattoo At One Of The Tv Shops' (83 words)so the shop minimum was $200? i get tattooed at true tattoo in hollywood and i think the shopp minimum is $80. this is the shop where both kat von d and chris garver worked before miami ink.. and on a side note... i watched a youtube video of kat von d doing a dog's portrait on some dude ......
Reply to 'Instant Sleeve' (55 words)exactly.. i have a portrait tattoo done by a real dude from a real shop and it looks amazing.. kat von d never came near it.. but everyone tells me it is the best portrait tattoo they have ever seen.. and you know what.. it only ran me 350 bones.. plus snacks, scotch, and tip....
Reply to 'Instant Sleeve' (81 words)point proven. people are stupid!
(dont get me wrong, Kat von D is a GREAT tattooer, so are all those guys on tv, but no better than your other great tattooers. theres guys in my town that im pretty sure could blow those tv guys out of the water. [well, except Garver, that dudes somethin else.] point being, they're ......
Reply to 'Instant Sleeve' (107 words)i think it should be a lower process. situation dictates i guess. ie a certain branch of the military outlawed sleeves after a certain date, well in order to get grandfathered in i know of several people who walked into tattoo shops, threw down a couple g's and said go to town. what im getting at is these people ......

How To SERIOUSLY Heal Tattoos
1. After getting Tattooed leave the saran wrap on for a few hours before removing...this allows the tattoo the bleed out without your lymph drying and scabbing.
2. After leaving the Tattoo shop go ......
Reply to 'Should Your Tattoos Match?' (50 words)that's another concern a lot of people have.. it's as if you have to get matching tattoos on each arm.. you see that all the time in tattoo shops.. people come in and get something of the same size on the other side of their body to "balance themselves out"...

Reply to 'Deciding On A Tattoo.'

I used to work in a tattoo shop and during downtime a lot of the work that gets done on employees is spur of the moment. Do I regret getting some of what I got, ya...kind of. We used to tell customers to pick something out and then ......
Reply to 'Tattoo Etiquette' (34 words)I agree. I've definitely experienced some serious attitude at certain shops. Not sure why. There's a weird mystique to tattoos that enables that. That would kill any other business. Somehow these shops keep going. ...
