Portland's Underground Tattoo Studio

Joseph is an amazing tattoo artist. I came here after reading his phenomenal Google reviews and decided to do a walk-in. I met one of his previous clients who was waiting for an appointment with him and we all started talking. She graciously gave up her appointment time and decided to wait for him to complete my tattoo. It's my first tattoo and I was pretty nervous about it, but he reassured me the whole time and walked me through the process. It felt like a safe space to open up about what I wanted and what it meant to me. He spent time on drawing up the idea I had and making it come to life. I can't speak highly enough of him as a professional and as an artist. I absolutely love my tattoo!!! I'd come back to Portland for him and will continue to recommend him for any tattoo work.

I can’t recommend Joesph enough. From start to finish, the whole experience was solid. He really took the time to listen to what I wanted, added his own artistic touch, and made sure everything felt personal and meaningful, not just another tattoo. His attention to detail is next level, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his work and his clients. The shop was clean, professional, and had a relaxed vibe that made it easy to feel comfortable the whole time. What stood out the most was how much pride he takes in what he does. He doesn’t rush the process, and it shows in the final result. My tattoos turned out even better than I imagined. If you’re looking for someone who’s talented, professional, and easy to work with, Joesph is your guy. I’ll definitely be back for more work. Thanks bro

Been rocking with Joseph for a few years now. Amazing artist and even better human being! Highly recommend popping in for you and the old ladies matching tattoos…. Or any other tattoo needs you may have 🙂‍↕️

I cannot say enough amazing things about Portland Underground Tattoo and my artist, Joseph Jacobus. Every tattoo he has done for me has been absolutely beautiful, meaningful, and beyond what I imagined. From delicate line work to shading, detail, and placement, Joseph always brings my ideas to life in the most perfect way. Whether it was my spooky doll, moon piece, hand web, celestial arrow, heart handcuffs, or even my colorful pieces, every tattoo has healed beautifully and gets compliments all the time. He has an incredible eye for detail and somehow makes every piece feel personal, unique, and perfectly placed. The studio itself is clean, welcoming, professional, and comfortable. You can tell everyone there truly cares about their work and about making clients feel at ease. Joseph is patient, talented, creative, and makes the whole experience fun from start to finish. If you are looking for a tattoo artist who can do it all and truly cares about creating something special for you, I highly recommend Joseph at Portland Underground Tattoo. I would never trust anyone else with my tattoos!

Joseph is a very attentive artist. He has a way of helping you feel comfortable with the choices you make. He was very patient with all the changes my wife and I keep making. He is willing to guide you by letting you k own what could happen and allowing you to make informed decisions. My mife and I have gone back multiple time and he is one of our trusted artists.
