Slave to the Needle Tattoo and Body Piercing Ballard

For the first timer who is apprehensive... this place is for you. Totally competent and amazing artists that don't make you feel dumb for asking normal, first time questions!

awesome artists who take their work seriously and also have great ideas. Definitely no surprise that this is known as the best tattoo shop in Seattle.

When you go Ask for Van. He's easy to spot out too. He's the gentle giant tattooing in the back of the studio. Also he's my uncle. :-)

Everyone here is good. Pick the artist with the style that matches yours and you're golden!

Honest Jon is AWESOME... just look at my sleeve, you'll agree. He's an amazing artist .

2 letters, HJ - best ink in the city .

Allow me to recommend Clark. Great guy, takes his time and does things right.

Don't bother bringing your kids here. They refuse to pierce ears for kids under 8(girls) to 10(boys).

Ask for Van. Hes super talented!
