Tattoo Shops near Lake Forest Park

“Josh was fantastic and super clean and gentle, he was able to help out with some Touch ups and anew tattoo! Also he was so great at giving me the size and placement I wanted ! Would recommend“

“I came in about 4–5 days ago to get a vertical labret and an eyebrow piercing, and Connor did an amazing job! He was super patient with me and absolutely nailed both piercings, definitely a 10/10 experience. I’ve had little to no swelling, no bruising on my eyebrow, and my lip piercing is perfectly placed. Everything is healing beautifully. I just wanted to leave a review to say how happy I am and to highly recommend Connor! I’ll definitely be coming back for future piercings. Thanks, Connor! :)“

Specialties: Traditional tattoos, flash tattoos, custom tattoos, walk ins

“Jason Middleton 4EVER ?‍⬛?‍⬛?‍⬛ my favorite tattoo I’ve ever gotten!!!!“

“Great work, awesome guy!! He is really funny and made the experience great. I recommend, I searched him up from Houston and he did not disappoint .“

“Got my first tattoo here and John did a great job. He really listened to what I wanted and honored my request. Also, just a super nice guy!“

“Came here to get my first tattoo with Vegas! I love it already and I'm super excited to see it once we get to color it in. They did a great job and I'm already looking forward to working with them again.“

“Amazing piercing shop! The front desk staff are lovely people, me and my mother went to get our rooks pierced, our piercer was Otto and he did a wonderful job, he was quick and the piercings themselves are straight and wonderfully placed! Not to mention we waited less than 20 minutes from arrival, to getting pierced. We highly recommend this studio!“

“I came in full of anxiety due to getting a pretty risky set of piercings. Sat in their beautiful waiting room while my anxiety built. As soon as Colin o came and grabbed me he went over everything in detail. He also told me he had only had a issue with one of these piercings the entire 16 years he's been doing this which instantly built trust because he was honest. Let's face it no one's perfect. But the way he was so thorough, honest, quick, and for the most part pain free made me feel extremely comfortable. This place has become my new piercing spot and I will definitely be recommending my family and friends to him. Thanks again Colin O!“

“Sasha King and Chris did an amazing job on both of our tattoos. HIGHLY Recommend both of them to get your tattoo work done. When I come back from AZ to visit Seattle again I’ll definitely be coming back for more work.“

“The shop is so cute, cozy, and clean. Joe did a tattoo on my leg and he was so kind, knowledgeable, and patient with me while we got the stencil just right. He does beautiful work and I could not be more happy with my tattoo!! I’m already trying to figure out when I can come back and get another one done by him!“

““I want it to look good, this is going to be on you forever,” Hep says as he sits and takes a final look at his work. It has been 7+ hours, and I just asked him what was going through his mind.

His response encapsulates his approach, which includes genuine care, thoughtfulness, and creativity - qualities one should look for when searching for an artist (or their first tattoo). This was certainly my first one, and I can attest to the hard work Hep places on his craft.

Additionally, Hep worked on my wife’s first tattoo the day before and for someone who has a low pain threshold, she reported feeling minimal discomfort. Hep made us feel right at home and addressed all our concerns and questions throughout.

There is another review revealing that he assisted a customer (who wasn’t even his) in going to a local CVS for tattoo care (or something like that)…he is definitely the type to do this.

In all, Hep is amazing and worthy of the praise he receives on his work.

***The tattoo can be found in a review below. My wife posted our tattoos :)“

“I got my first tattoo with Michelle. She was amazing! So helpful! It was a great experience and I can hardly wait for my next!“

“I cannot recommend Ying's Tattoo highly enough! From start to finish, the experience was beyond incredible. Carson's artistry is unmatched--his ability to bring my vision to life with a stunning blend of watercolor and calligraphy was nothing short of masterful. Every line, every detail in this memorial tattoo for my pups holds meaning and beauty. Ying'a customer service was equally phenomenal. Thoughtful, responsive, and deeply invested in making sure every part of the process felt personal and smooth. They both truly went above and beyond, taking every one of my ideas and requirements and transforming them into something even more meaningful than I imagined--while adding their own creative flare that made the design shine. If you're looking for artists who care deeply about their craft and their clients, look no further. I'm already sending everyone I know to Ying's Tattoo!“

“The tattoo came out really well. Exactly what I asked for & the place was clean. Offered drinks while we waited. The tattoo artist made sure I liked the tattoo he drew. I would recommend this place.“

“Ted was amazing! Super friendly and overall welcoming and comfortable vibe. Great price! Told him what i wanted and he delivered just that, will definitely be coming again for future tattoos!!“

“I've been getting tattooed for over 20 years now & EKT is simply the best. Robyn fixed & finished a sleeve of mine, my hands & now Misha is finishing out my neck by doing my chin.

Their diverse staff serves a very diverse swath of people. It's super accessible for all bodies, as I've seen a client in a powered wheelchair get tattooed here. They also offer unique community events & donate to local charities throughout the year.

All the above, AND the talent runs deep!? Don't sleep on The Kitten. Plus, they have killer snacks & an awesome bathroom.“

“Andres has been with Tracy for just over a week and is great! His sketch of my vision was exactly what I wanted! He made sure I was doing alright and had no issue with me needing a sustenance break or moments to just chill. He’s friendly, caring and empathetic. Tracy was great setting up the appointment for me. Thanks guys! I’ve got a stellar tattoo of my visit to Ballard, reminiscent of the Chihuly Glass exhibit!!“

“Had a great experience with Gunnor Faulk at Nova Expansion! Scheduled an appointment with him on behalf of my mother- and father-in-law to get matching tattoos for her 63rd birthday. He was exceptionally kind, welcoming, patient, and skilled with both of them. Attentive to cleanliness and care instructions. They were both nervous and he put them right at ease! They had a great experience and both of their tattoos—small line work in their handwriting—look super sharp. Saw some of his portfolio and know he’d be excellent for more extensive work, too. Would recommend him to anyone!“

“Felt very comfortable coming here for my first tattoo. Very clean and welcoming environment. Everyone was very kind and Kingsley did an amazing job!“

“An artist here did a memorial tattoo for me today, for my dad i really appreciate his work he did an amazing job. Everyone here is always kind and awesome.“

“Wonderful experience having consultation for mastectomy scars cover up. I'm looking forward to getting started.“

“Had a memorial tattoo for my Aunt Ellen who recently passed at 104 years old. Talked to Holly and felt comfortable with her abilities. She quoted me a time and price and was spot on. She's very nice and friendly. It was a very comfortable process. I would go back to her without question. Very talented. Very happy with my tattoo. I have appt. 16 tattoos and am very proud of the work Holly did!!“

“10/10! my tattoos Josh did are the best ones i have. i have tourette’s syndrome so im not an easy client but josh is very professional and gives me as many breaks as i need and all of my tattoos from him are symmetrical with good lines and well saturated.“

“I am 50 and this is the best tattoo experience I have had. Staff is great. Artist are exceptional. For the older crowd; check out “Chief” he is an amazing artist and understands aging skin and the tattoo approach necessary.“

“Danny “One Shot” Chan was booked solid, but they snuck me in for a Saturday session and he brought my drawing to life. Nailed it!“
