Best Tattoo Shops In Fort Collins

“Liquid Color Tattoo is a place where artistry meets soul. I came in with a very specific memorial piece in mind—something to honor one of my horses who meant the world to me. From the start, I felt like this wasn’t just a tattoo appointment—it was a collaboration rooted in care, respect, and emotional depth.

Lexy was my first point of contact, and our virtual consultation was everything I hoped for. She took the time to understand the story behind the piece, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure my ideas were not only heard but elevated. Her professionalism was matched by her empathy—she helped me make realistic adjustments to the design while preserving the heart of what I wanted. I never felt rushed or dismissed; instead, I felt like my vision was being nurtured by someone who truly cared.

Lexy scheduled me for a two-day session to ensure we had the time and space to do the piece justice. Both days were incredibly comfortable and relaxed—something I didn’t expect from such a medium and meaningful tattoo. Lexy checked in with me constantly, especially when we hit tougher areas in the placement. Her awareness and care made all the difference. I was never rushed, never pressured. I could take breaks whenever I needed, eat snacks, stretch, breathe—it felt like the studio was working on my timeline, not the other way around.

When I arrived at the studio, the energy was warm and welcoming. Lexy and Dan Cardon, the shop owners, greeted me like family. There’s something rare about the way they run Liquid Color—it’s not just a business, it’s a community. They’ve created a space where people feel loved, safe, and genuinely seen. I am so pleased with my piece.

Please come check this shop out!“

“Adam was the most professional and educational piercer I have ever had! He did a VCH piercing on me. I gave consent to have his intern in the room as well.. the way he was showing her and walking her through every detail including anatomy was amazing . His interns also deserve 5 stars for not only their ability to connect with customers but their willingness to learn ??????“

“Love my first tattoo, a memorial tattoo that is really special to me. Cei was kind and patient throughout the process and happy to answer all my questions. His place is bright and clean and quiet, great for a first-timer like me. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.“

“I cannot say enough good things about this tattoo shop, the artists and the work the artists put in. My fiance and I had been looking for a GOOD tattoo shop for a minute and we came across black oak tattoo which was the best choice we could have made. Mike did my tattoo and Doug did my fiances. When I came in my allergies were absolutely killing me but Mike didn’t make me feel bad or gross for it- that alone made me want to cry happy tears. Doug worked my fiance into his schedule so we could have our appointments at the same time. And again, as if the people weren’t already amazing the work and ATTENTION TO DETAIL was mind blowing. Thank you guys for everything, I will not be going anywhere else from here on out!“

“Jon was hands down, the best tattoo artist I have ever had. His communication from the start was amazing. He kept us updated and was very responsive. He was easy to talk to as well! If you had no idea who we were, you would have thought we have known each other for ten years. He was very professional, but knew how to have fun. He listened to what we wanted and was able to easily draw it up! We are driving 12 hours to see him again next year!“

“I get my piercings here by Jared, and he is so amazing! As painless as I've ever experienced, and very friendly and laid back while still making sure you leave with the knowledge and products to keep your new piercing clean and healthy! I won't go anywhere else for piercings now!“

“I just got my very first tattoo at Linden Street Tattoo Company, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I’ve always wanted a tattoo, and while mine is a “cheesy tourist” mountaintop line design, not once did anyone make me feel silly or judged for it. Instead, they made the whole process feel special.
Tony at the front desk was incredible—we instantly bonded over our microbladed eyebrows, which set such a fun and welcoming tone. Adam Fenner was my artist, and he was everything you’d hope for: professional, respectful, and kind. When I asked him how many mountain tattoos he’s done, he was totally honest, but he also took the time to listen to my personal connection to the mountains, which made it feel meaningful and personal instead of cliché.
For a first-time tattoo experience, I couldn’t imagine feeling more comfortable, heard, and cared for. Thank you, Linden Street Tattoo—this won’t be my last visit!“
