Best Tattoo Shops In Victoria

“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.“

“Great experience from start to finish. Geri is a knowledgeable and talented artist and beautiful human inside and out to top it off! Highly recommend!“

“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!!“

“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“

“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.“

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

“I met these guys at sunfest one year and they did an awesome job on my neck tattoo that i had gotten. I highly recommend them for their services. Theyre very professional and quite capable!Thanks a ton guys!“

“Scott from Painted Lotus Tattoo is the greatest. I was lucky to get a spot with him. He designed a stunning tattoo from a few brief exchanges and it was better than anything I could have imagined. He was polite, courteous, professional, fun and does 11/10 work. Couldn't be happier. Going back next month for more. The whole team here had a great vibe, it's a clean studio, with a great energy. Thank you all.

Cleanliness: Super clean studio

Stylist: Scott Robertson - 11/10“

“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!“

“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 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 :)“

“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.“

“Walked in and asked for a small simple tree on the side of my wrist. The artist said he didn't recommend the size for as detailed as the tattoo was. I agreed to the bigger size but I wish we would have talked about a different placement since it was so much bigger than I originally wanted. It's still a cute tattoo but I learned my lesson.“

“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.“

“*Cash Only*

Prices...just as competitive as others and artist will communicate cost before hand.

*artist still have to pay for supplies, time for designing tattoo, booth cost, how the economy has driven up prices of everything etc.*

Flash tattoos available but for unique (your own version) best ask for custom.

I primarly go to (almost ten years) Kyle but all artist at this location has instagram for you to decide what style of tattoo you want.

Shop store is naturally bright (unlike a tattoo dungeon), quiet, clean and have A/C and heat. A/C is a definate plus in the summer month. Helps relax and dry up that sweat while getting tattooed.

Lots of parking (free for two hours) available, if not, Johnston street parkade is just a block away.

If you are hungry before or after tattoo, there are quick bite restuarants below for you to choose.“

“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!“

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

“This place is the best, artists are friendly and super welcoming. It’s clean and sanitary. Which to most that’s a huge plus. John and Jen were there for my tattoo appointment and loved them both.
