Best Tattoo Shops In Victoria

“Had a great experience at Mahihkan tattoo! It’s is a beautiful studio with the best vibes. Mason is a phenomenal artist who works hard to provide a great and comfortable environment. They were also selling the cutest handmade beaded necklaces while I was there. Would recommend to anyone looking to get tattooed, support your local Indigenous owned businesses!!“

“In September, my husband and I had appointments at Tech Noir to have our tattoos done at the same time. His tattoo was completed by Bobby and mine by Miles.

My husband and I both agree that our experiences at Tech Noir were exceptional and we plan to return in the future.

My tattoo consisted of a cover-up and Miles was able to incorporate most of my wants, within the confines of my existing tattoo. He explained that a cover up can be more painful than a fresh tattoo and thus, while tattooing me, he checked in with me frequently to see how I was holding up.

Overall, the atmosphere at Tech Noir is welcoming and upbeat. We both highly recommend this tattoo shop.“

“I absolutely adore this studio. Not only is it beautifully set up and welcoming, but it's also clean and tidy. It's an inclusive and safe business that prides itself on their work and client satisfaction. I've never been disappointed, nor have I ever had any negative interactions. All of my questions have always been answered with understanding and expertise. Overall, I would highly recommend this studio.“

“Doug is a phenomenal artist, who is passionate about his craft. Positive and professional. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for their 1st tattoo or their newest piece.“

“I had been dreaming of going to this store in the near future, once I could save enough money to ask Geri for a big cover-up of my old tattoo from another place. Then I saw what was happening, so I decided to just go to the store now and have a small piece done with the money I have. I'm 100% satisfied with the young artist's work. I recommend other queers like me go to the store now.“

“Came for a walk-in to commemorate our completion of the west coast trail and Vic did an amazing job on all 3 of our tattoos. A super friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Very clean and well kept shop. Highly recommend.

Cleanliness: Very clean and well kept shop“

“Such an amazing shop with artists who truly have a passion for what they do, I came to Autumn with a piece I was very passionate about that was designed by someone important to me. Autumn sensed that passion and put more than the same amount of passion into the piece.

About the experience
I walked in the front door and was warmly welcomed by my artist and a very cozy and clean environment

Adequate time was taken to ensure I was confident in the placement before any ink was layed out

Once tattooing started I was frequently checked in on and asked how I was feeling which really helped with it being in the center of my chest (ouch) I felt looked after

Even at the end of the piece the artist ensured everything was as perfect as it could have possibly been

All around very happy with my new tattoo
Highly recommend getting ink here

Bonus- this place has a wood stove which is a very cozy touch to an already awesome place!“

“It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Cohen of Paradigm Tattoo Company. I’m blessed to have
my body permanently adorned with his art. His studio is very calming, as is Cohen, and he has a wicked playlist. Cannot wait for my next tattoo!“

“Go see my boy Max at red lantern! Stellar vibes and an even better artist! Great work thanks again!“

“Dusty made all of my tattoo visions come to life, and was very friendly & encouraging all the way. I got my very first tattoo with Dusty at Union when I turned 25, and since then I have trusted him with both of my arms to a total of 9 tattoos! The shop is always 10/10 clean, welcoming, and full of good vibes. I always recommend Union Tattoo to my friends and also strangers when they ask about my ink. They have become my second family. Also another big shoutout the Greg and Nicole. Love you guys.“

“I have had tattoos done by Emily, Gwen, and Scott and everyone had their own style but everyone is also friendly and professional. a welcoming place with great artists!“

“Voodoo is literally the best tattoo artist I know. He's done all of my work over the years, always takes the time to make sure I get his highest quality, and is beyond a pleasure to work with. Couldn't recommend his services enough!“

“I see Megan for gorgeous blackwork tattoos and i am never dissapointed. She is super creative and empathetic and her art is so unique. Everyone is super friendly and the studio is cute!“

“Excellent space. I saw a guest artist but the whole place had a lovely atmosphere, great open spaces and natural lighting, and was very clean and welcoming. Everyone was respectful, attentive, caring and kind. Another customer had an issue and fainted, and everyone made sure to take care of them and make sure they were okay. 10/10 experience
Only downside I could see is it isn't wheelchair accessible!“

“I'm very happy with this studio. Ren is exceedingly talented, reliable, and easy to work with. I'm glad that I entrusted them to do this work, and will definitely be back for more.“

“I got my third and largest tattoo here with David, and as someone who is quite introverted and anxious, I felt extremely comfortable in a very relaxing and accommodating environment.

I tend to ask alot of questions about processes and whatnot, and I often feel somewhat like a pest asking so many questions, but not once did I ever get the impression that any of the artists were frustrated or irritated with my questions and instead happily and eagerly answered my myriad of questions.

I would 1000% recommend coming here to get a tattoo to anyone, and especially folks like me who are a bit new to tattoos and a little bit introverted/awkward.

I received my Scottish Family Crest on my calf, and I am extremely proud and honored to say I had it done here.

A huge thanks to the folks at Government Street Tattoo.

I look forward to many more tattoos to come :)“

“I would like to say that I’m really enjoyed my visit. I got my very first tattoo from Bob. He said he has done tattoos for 40 years and I love what he did so I would recommend universal tattoo in Victoria for sure.“

“alex did my hand tattoo and got exactly what I wanted. he was very professional and understanding. thanks alex!“

“Re -puercing ears for un-tatted 62 year old. Fast, painless, spotlessly clean premises.“
