Field notes
What locals say about Fort Wayne tattoo shops
Pulled from Google reviews of the top-rated shops in Fort Wayne.
“I’ve gotten two tattoos before this but both very small and minimal. For my first big tattoo I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The shop itself is spacious and clean with sections for all the tattoo artists that each have their sections personalized to show off things like cool figures and other collectibles/memorabilia across a plethora of fandoms and aesthetics. The artists there are friendly and welcoming and my artist Charlie was no exception. I had reached out to Charlie months prior to this tattoo because of recommendations and seeing the work he’s done in the past. For this piece I had requested a tattoo of my cat Bean’s head markings. I had seen this trend a couple of times on social media and asked Charlie if he’d have any interest in doing it for me and he not only accepted the request but fulfilled it better than I could have imagined. Charlie got an awesome sketch done of Bean’s pattern and also adjusted the style to more of a brush stroke style immediately upon request. His attention to detail, steady hand, and perfect level of pressure made this experience absolutely painless for me. I have more tattoos that I will be getting with him down the line since we had so much time leftover and I can’t wait to have more work done by such great local talent. It was also a pleasure conversing with him throughout the course of the tattoo and getting to know about his interests and future tattoo ideas that interested him. Excited to go back so see you guys soon.”
“Best tattoo studio around by far. I did a ton of research before booking my first appointment with Studio13 and now I’m a repeat customer. The shop itself is spotless, welcoming, and has an awesome vibe the second you walk in. They can do it all, black and grey, color, realism, portrait, American trad, new school, and yes… even cyber sigilism. Any style imaginable, they can nail it. The artists take the time to really listen, sketch, and add their own expertise so the final piece comes out better than you could picture. Every tattoo I’ve gotten here healed perfectly and still looks crisp and bold. The booking process is smooth, the staff are super professional, and the artists honestly feel hand-picked from the tattoo gods themselves. You don’t just walk away with ink, you walk away with a true piece of art.”
“Me and my friend both got pierced by matt. I got my belly button and she got her conch and tragus. He was so nice and fun, very personable and talks you through the whole thing. Everything is very sanitary and he is very precise! Absolutely going to him in the future and highly recommend.”
