Tattoo Shops near Metairie

“First tattoo. I went to visit the shop, knowing I wanted a hurricane swirl tattoo. The owner greeted me and we discussed the design and size. The price he quoted was good, and he asked me when I wanted to do it, adding he could do it now. So, now was good for me. He asked for a few minutes to set up the machine, I filled out a short form with a minimum amount of information and he was ready. I was comfortable and relaxed while he worked, we chatted about stuff, and he was finished in a reasonable amount of time. The tattoo is awesome. Lastly, he gave me all the information I needed for taking care of my new tattoo. Not sure what tattoo I'll get next, but I will definitely return to Galactic Tattoo, and will highly recommend Galactic Tattoo to anyone looking for a great tattoo studio.“

“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.“

“I have been for 3 tattoos and have been very pleased with them all. Thanks to Joey for his patience and attention to detail. My last tatoo was in honor of my mom, and the rose has amazing detail and depth. I'm sure I'll ll be back“

“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!

Cleanliness: Very clean shop from top to bottom!“

“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.
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.
Super nice, super clean shop and love the new tattoo.
My new wife and I were on our honeymoon and each git a tattoo while visiting.
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.
Already planning on my next one, and will definitely be returning (better snack bag options next time).“

“I have gone to World Class Tattoo to see Josef (Joe) for my last three pieces, and have found a “home” with him. He is a phenomenal artist with undeniable talent, and he’s able to do a variety of tattoo styles. He will be the main, if not only, artist I go to for all of my permanent artwork. As far as the actual establishment, it’s always been clean, well-maintained, and accommodating. If you’re looking for a “home” in the realm of tattoos, you can’t go wrong with choosing World Class. <3Services: Tattoo aftercare“

“Power Poe Studios is a superb spot to paint, sip, and even get a tattoo! The owner is very friendly and responds quickly to any questions! Power Poe Studios is also a great place for event rental and the owner will cater to your needs and ensure that your event is unforgettable and hassle free.
The sip and paint sessions are great as the instructor is very interactive and makes everyone feel like a true artist! I can't wait to visit Power Poe Studios again!“

“James is an amazing tattoo artist!! I love all my tattoos he’s on a different level!! 100 stars!! Highly recommend!!“

“I just had the most AMAZING experience at Artist Lodge getting a tattoo done by Amber. She was professional, nice, funny, and is so very talented. She put so much care into my personalized piece and designed a tattoo that felt very true to who I am and what I wanted. This was my first tattoo, she worked quickly, and the lines and shading were sooooo neat. I’m so in love with this piece and will be back for more!The tattoo parlor itself is very clean, and has a very laidback and comfortable feel. Check them out!“

“I want to love this place-
Kai rocks!!!

Sad the piercer there corrected my daith for $60; $40 for getting my ring removed and $20 for jewelry vs a customer’s nipple ring that fell out only for $20. I paid that customer because I felt bad she couldn’t afford it.“

“I just got my first tattoo, and I’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!“

“Cleanliness: The prettiest and most cleanly shop I’ve ever seen. Shop is shiny and clean always!

Stylist: Any of the artists here can come up with an absolutely unique one of a kind design for anyone with the right references. Piercers will even work with you on placements if you’re not completely happy with placement, one of a kind shop.“
