Best Tattoo Shops In New Orleans

“Stopped by while on vacations for a week and decided to get a tattoo. Matt and Jason were super helpful and very welcoming.“

“My tattooer at Lucky Dagger, Dani, is so talented and kind! Not only did she squeeze in my walk in for a flash piece, she did a stellar job. She has a light hand, but tremendous skill. I'd recommend her any day! Her attention to detail is attributed to her time tattooing. Era is also a babe who did my canine jewel. She is so sweet and gentle! She's forthcoming about the process and explained aftercare thoroughly. The entire shop is incredibly welcoming, their decor is top notch AND their merch is awesome. Don't skip on checking out some local art. Awesome shop with awesome vibes. Definitely go here if you're in NOLA!“

“Bottom line: Brandi has made me wish I had found her sooner. That's how good of an experience this was, with great suggestions for your time around the city as well. Best ink work I have on me, hands down. 11/10 would recommend.“

“We walked in to get matching tattoos for my bachelorette trip! We were able to get right in. Kenny was amazing! The shop was clean and had a great vibe! Highly recommend them!“

“The wife and I were down in New Orleans for our 1 year anniversary. We have talked about getting matching/similar tattoos for years and finally decided to take the plunge! We checked out a few different places and Space Tiger just seemed to be the one we felt the best about. We had Mat as our artist. We were getting simple song lyrics on our biceps. He drew it our exactly as we wanted and they came out better than we could have imagined! My wife had a little issue during her portion where she started to feel a little light headed and Mat was very compassionate and understanding in the matter. He gave her time to recoup before starting again. Great value, Great conversation, and great people! Also found out that Mat and I were born on the same exact day and year (3/19/87) only hours apart. So now he and I need matching tattoos!<br><br>Cleanliness: Very clean shop from top to bottom!“

“Chris did an awesome job on my tattoo and everyone there was awesome to hang out with. I can't wait to go back and get another one“

“Best spot for tattoos in town! Always putting out quality work, and the artists are always so nice ! I've been here several times and plan to go back several more!“

“For a first time experience, DT&P is absolutely superb. Everyone I spoke to was extremely welcoming and they helped me navigate the nuances of explaining the tattoo that I wanted and the style I was looking for.<br>On top of that, Jim's work is absolutely fantastic and remarkably painless. He's a very interesting bloke who will keep the conversation flowing to keep your mind off any mild discomfort you may feel.“

“Just got a tattoo here.<br>Super nice, super clean shop and love the new tattoo.<br>My new wife and I were on our honeymoon and each git a tattoo while visiting.<br>Great people, reasonable prices and great ink work! Would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality tattoo.“

“I messaged the shop and got a very quick reply from Flex, the owner about his availability, and we were able to come up with an appointment for the following day. I was nervous because it was my second and it was mostly on my ribcage, but he was patient and kind. My friends and I left there laughing, and had two awesome tattoos to show for it.<br>Already planning on my next one, and will definitely be returning (better snack bag options next time).“

“Wonderful experience today! Clean, professional service, and great customer care! Impressive and talented artists.“

“I just got my first tattoo, and I&#8217;m so glad I chose Forbidden Art. I first met Will, who was incredibly helpful in explaining what to expect. When I came back to get my tattoo, Will introduced me to Devin, who, along with Danny, made the experience wonderful. They were both so kind and added some humor that really put me at ease. Devin even played my favorite music during the session and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. If you're thinking about getting a tattoo, I highly recommend this place. Devin is truly that dude!“

“Reached out yesterday afternoon and received a response quickly. A friend and I worked with Markus. He was super polite and patient, had great suggestions and was easy to work with if we wanted to change something. His demeanor was very calming. I had designed a small, simple piece. He kept very true to it, but made it much better. Art work / portfolio was outstanding. It was as a great experience.“

“Just got yet another tattoo, I like to get them from the different countries I travel to. I was a walk in client and Jimmy was super helpful with my design and tattoo. He was helpful with my placement and the design was spot on. My whole experience was outstanding and came from reading previous reviews. Would highly recommend this tattoo store if you are in New Orleans. Love my new tat. Apologies for the picture as it had already been covered but trust me it's sick.<br><br>Requested style: Spot on with my design.<br><br>Cleanliness: Super clean“

“If you want good work and a great experience go to Electric Ladyland. Professional staff, clean studio, and located in a great place. Highly recommend Devin. She’s personable, friendly, and does awesome work.“

“Such a great place! I highly recommend Chad, he did such an amazing job on my daughter’s tattoo!“

“My husband and I went into the tattoo shop with a design picked out. The shop upon entering looked clean. Steven helped us from start to finish. The design he drew out and tattooed on us was EXACTLY as we wanted it! We are both SO happy with our experience from start to finish at Big Easy Tattoo Co.<br><br>Cleanliness: Very clean and well kept“
