Best Tattoo Shops In Kalispell

“If you are wanting a transactional tattoo then go somewhere else. If you are looking for a transformative experience where your ideas can become artwork and you make family along the way then you have arrived at your destination.

I began my research to find the place that could make my ideas a reality. I found EXEX and started following along to see if the content being put out was actually a representation of their work or just highlights. The finish product continued to never disappoint. I decided to reach out and the process for being a potential candidate blew my expectations out of the water. I sent an application online and was contacted by, “The Queen Of Communication” Mariah (she lives up to the name) the next day to talk through my ideas, placement, and who would specialize in exactly what I wanted She set the standard of what to expect. I was sent a questionnaire of framework from who I was, my definition of success to how I want the world to remember me. The whole team works to cultivate your individual needs. From there you get to meet your artist and I was paired with the wonderful Kelly. We met and talked through inspirations, ideas and concepts. She had me create a playlist that could accurately embody who I am, to listen to, as she designed my thoughts. We met back up to review what she came up with and she was as excited as I was to begin this process. Her work is exquisite, communication is unparalleled and she is the sweetest person and a joy to converse with. I just finished my last session yesterday and I am looking forward to having Kelly create my next masterpiece.

Kelly, Jake, Mariah and to all the others that I have met along the way, I want to say thank you for creating a space that is a top notch big city, high end feel in this small valley. Keep it up!“

Update 9/14/2025

Chad did an amazing job on my river and Irish tattoos. He designed the Irish one and couldn't be happier. He definitely nailed it. The river one he tattooed exactly to a T from my original drawing. He's very professional and very light handed. I have a low pain tolerance and was able to relax the whole time.“

“I was in a bit of a pickle after getting tattooed out of town- I desperately needed a new second skin as mine was peeling off after only 2 days. Hannah took time for me as a walk-in to clean and rewrap my tattoo. She and her co-artist were super kind and welcoming. I hope to be able to support them in the future again!“
