Downtown Studio

With bright walls, an open layout, and bold artwork everywhere you look, the Downtown studio feels fun and welcoming from the moment you walk in.
Massive front windows pour in natural light, keeping the space warm and relaxed—and our artists work side by side, so the studio is always buzzing with good conversation and good vibes.
Immaculately clean, fully professional, and stacked with serious talent—the Downtown studio earns its rep as one of the best tattoo shops in St Louis.

St. Peters Studio

Our St. Peters studio is a top-rated tattoo shop in St. Louis for clients who’re looking for a more private, laidback experience—without losing the edge or artistry.
Curtained artist stalls, cozy corners for waiting, and a collection of arcade games at the front of the studio combine for a homey experience where you and your guests can truly be comfortable.
And on top of the studio being spotless from wall to wall, each artists’ space brings its own vibe—layered with personality, artwork, and details that make it instantly clear who you’ll click with.
