Tattoo Shops near East Lansing

“Brought my 10 year old to get her ears pierced today and couldn’t have had a better experience. Andy explained the process, after care, and answered all of her questions with patience and kindness. He not only made her feel comfortable, but also talked to her like a real person. Jupiter was amazing too! Very kind!! 💚“

“Best tattoo experience out of the 5 I’ve had. Very thoughtful, kind, thorough, flexible and patient. @lucasdoodlestatttos (insta) was amazing and I will definitely be coming back! Pricing was higher, but for a very good artist. Worth it!“

“Not only is Cali a top notch tattoo artist, he’s a top notch person! My whole family travels almost 2 hours to get our work done by Cali and will always do so.
I haven’t had any work done from anyone else in the shop but I’ve been in there plenty of times to see their work I’m and they are very good too!
You can’t go wrong with True Blue!!“

“Liv always does amazing!! Very good attention to detail, and she’s so sweet and patient! Will always recommend!“

“Love Love Love Steven there! Always super chill, professional, and kind. His work is amazing and definitely worth the price. I have three very different pieces done by him and all three still look brand new!“

“Got my first tattoo done by Tim and it was exactly what I wanted. Super chill guy and I would come back for future tattoos“

“Pedro was incredible! He listened to what I wanted and assisted me with adding to it to make it clean and impactful. Best black and grey artist around! And he is professional, kind and very comfortable to be around. It was an excellent experience. He is your guy for your tattoo therapy needs! I will be back. I want more ink from Pedro. He helped create a personal & powerful experience for me. Go see this guy!“

“Had another great opportunity to work with Boris gustav to get my tattoo, he’s done a few of mine and each one is exactly what I wanted. Very attentive to making sure you get what you ask for, an artist that actually doesn’t just do what THEY want and give you what YOU want. After a couple months the tattoo is still in great condition, bonus that I haven’t ever had to go in for a touch up either. Great tattoos, great humor, great energy. Definitely the person to go to for your tattoos!“

“Alix is an amazing piercer!! APP approved, very cleanly, very easy to talk to, easy to set up an appointment with, all the good things! I love that they have a huge selection of high quality and great priced jewelry to choose from too! It can be stressful walking into some piercing or tattoo shops - not the case with Ink Therapy. It is a relaxed and comfortable low stress environment. I love spending my money with them knowing I’m supporting an amazing person who stands up for my community 🖤 thanks Alix! I will say with tattooing I have had three friends who have had issues- one artist cancelled on my friend and didn’t reschedule. One artist started a piece on my friend and is ghosting her to finish. Another artist hasn’t replied to booking requests from another friend but posts that he has openings frequently.“

“Chris Costa absolutely crushed it. He drew an incredible pair of traditional cats — a panther and tiger — along with two beautiful trad roses, and was kind enough to knock out all four pieces over two days. My calves have never looked this good. The work is so sick I’m about to hit the gym just so my legs can properly honor his art.

On top of being an insanely talented artist, Chris is such a kind and personable human being with a super light hand, so the hours just fly by. He makes the whole experience comfortable and fun while still putting out top-tier work.

If you want bold, clean traditional work with a creative and unique vision, book with Chris Costa. You won’t regret it.“

“Greg was awesome, very flexible to our needs (4 gals all wanting the same word tattooed, but different fonts, sizes, and placements), and receptive to feedback. The space was incredibly neat, clean, and tidy. We were all super excited about the final results and will be returning for future tattoos!“

“My favorite thing about tattoo shops is everyone just hanging out and chopping it up, and not only does Fish Ladder have plenty of that, they have banter in a way where you can tell they all actually like each other. Oh also my tattoo looks excellent.“

“Seth gave me a tattoo with crisp lines, smooth shading, and vibrant color. Coming back here for more.“

“Kind of pricey. 80.00 for an initial on my ring finger. I know I know, trite but mine. Anyway. One color, black. Two touch ups included. But I love spies, sorry lost the spelling when I lost the card.“
