Field notes
What locals say about Portland tattoo shops
Pulled from Google reviews of the top-rated shops in Portland.
“I had to get my labret removed, and have help removing the ball from my septum ring, for an upcoming MRI. i had called ahead and scheduled the appointment a day ahead and was quoted $11. I was grateful to find somewhere that could get in done in under 15, cause that's really all i had for the rest of the month. I was a few minutes early for my appointment and the person working the front desk immediately went back to grab Fara Te. I perused the rings for maybe a minute, not long at all before they came out front and lead me to one of the piercing rooms. Everything was of course super clean, smelled sterile but not in the gross over the top way that hospitals smell, and the decor helped the space feel homier. they saw I was wearing a KN95 and immediately put on their own trifold mask upon entering the room. it means a lot to not have to ask. I've been in to probably a dozen piercing shops in my life, with over 30 visits total and despite feeling at home in them, i still have a level of underlying anxiety that stems from medical trauma. Fara was so kind and welcoming. We talked about our knuckle tats a bit while they sterilized things and got ready. The connection beforehand really helps me calm down. They confirmed with me what i needed done, and gave me a bit of a verbal walkthrough before having me lay down. They were so communicative and warm which really Helped curb my anxiety. They never touched me or moved on to the next step without telling me first. The process only took a few minutes and was painless. They gave me the piercings / pieces back in a little zipclose baggie and sent me on my way to the front desk. Will absolutely be coming back once I have more solid work, to get my next piercing, and have my septum sized up! I'm recommending Ritual Arts to all my friends ❤️🔥”
“Toby reworked a floral tattoo I got from a different artist a few years ago. Because of my initial tattoo experience I was really nervous going into it, but Toby was great! I was on the fence about whether to get it reworked, and was very anxious. He did a consultation with me so I could get an idea of what he would do if I moved forward with it. I ultimately decided to go ahead, and I am so glad I did! Toby's floral work is stunning, and my only regret is that he didn't do the original piece. He was so kind and patient through out the process, and really took the time to make sure I loved the piece and got what I wanted. Getting work done by him was a very redemptive tattooing experience, and I would definitely go back to get more! The vibes at the shop are incredible as well. It's full of plants and natural light, and feels like an inviting environment. That definitely played a part in helping me feel comfortable too! I can't recommend Toby and Tattoo34 enough!”
“If you’re looking for a good tattoo shop - you must come here!!! My friend and I had a walk in and were assisted right away. We worked with Mitchell & he was fantastic through the whole process. He made us feel very safe and welcome, great conversationalist & the tattoos turned out incredible!!! The shop is covered in plants and has such a nice vibe. Everyone we interacted with was very friendly and we were even provided snacks and a drink!! Would highly highly recommend seeing Mitchell for your tattoo needs! Thanks Birdhouse for the incredible visit :)”
