The Best Edmonton Tattoo Shops

  • Bryan

Edmonton, the capital city of Alberta, is a fusion of metropolitan hustle and prairie charm. Known for its river valley parks, vibrant music scene, and bustling festivals, Edmonton boasts a spirit that’s as broad and vibrant as the northern lights that often dance across its night skies.

With a skyline marked by modern architecture and natural landscapes just a stone’s throw away, the city marries urban sophistication with a profound love for the outdoors.

The essence of Edmonton, however, lies in its celebration of self-expression and creativity, evident in everything from its innovative arts district to its lively music scene. This spirit of individuality also thrives in Edmonton’s thriving tattoo culture.

From Old Strathcona to Downtown, the city’s top-tier tattoo studios provide a platform for people to tell their stories through ink, blending the craft’s rich traditions with modern design principles. The tattoo scene in Edmonton mirrors the city itself – a blend of tradition and modernity, making it an exciting hub for artistic expression and innovation.

Our favorite tattoo studios

There are a lot of studios out there, some better than others. We created this list by searching the internet for the highest-rated tattoo shops based on their Google ratings, which should give you an honest representation of some of the best.

    I love these guys!!!! Am a huge fan. From the consultation to the final tattoo, my experience has been awesome. It was my first tattoo, so I was excited and anxious at the same time. I consulted Shan with my idea, and within no time, he drew up the image in my presence… wow I was super amazed and impressed! It was exactly what I wanted. Shan is an excellent artist and I was made comfortable during the entire session. I was in awe with the outcome. The ambience, the team and their work, are definitely one of the best!! Kudos to The Fountainhead Tattoo. Coming soon to get my next tattoos with y’all!

    I had a cover-up done by Shan. I let him choose the art for the cover-up. When I had shown up for my appointment to get inked, I was absolutely blown away by what he had chosen. I don’t think I would have been able to come up with something that I would have loved better. To say that Shan is very talented is an understatement. His traditional Japanese style of tattoos is unmatched. His attention to detail and unbelievably fine linework make for an outstanding tattoo. I am honoured to wear his work for the rest of my life. the tattoo healed amazingly, with no fading and all the colours just pop right out at you. The shop atmosphere is very welcoming, professional and clean, and everyone was very friendly. I will definitely be going back for all my future tattoo needs.

    An amazing experience for my first tattoo! Had my tattoo done by Jazann in March. Healed great and super easy process. Created an amazing peice from my concept. Super chill and fun atmosphere in the studio! Loved the energy by their apprentice when I had it done. Thank you so much for the killer tattoo! Will definitely come back for other tattoos!

    Denny was really accommodating and listened to what I was wanting, I really appreciated that! I liked the privacy of his studio and that I never felt like he was rushing to get my tattoo done. I am really happy with where we are at so far and am looking forward to my next appointment!! Highly recommend !! Thanks again to Denny and Carolyn for making the experience so great!

    Great, professional service. He fit me in on a last minute tattoo to commemorate being a US firefighter coming to Alberta to help manage one of the wildfires. He went above and beyond by even taking me to the airport for my flight. Would recommend to anyone on either Canadian or US side.

    Tattoo Forest was an incredible experience from start to finish! It was so quick and easy to book in, my artist designed my piece a couple days in advance and got my feedback, and the actual day went so smooth! For a spine tattoo, it really wasn’t as painful as expected, and I think that’s because I had an incredible artist (@rit13_ink). She really made my vision come to life. The studio is clean, modern, and fun. I cannot recommend this studio enough.

    I got a tattoo by Ara of a portrait of my dog and flowers! One of the best tattoo experiences I’ve had, and I have 13 tattoos. Very clean and professional place. They have snacks and drinks if you need and are free to take during your tattoo session. I felt very comfortable and safe throughout my time there. They truly care for you! And I couldn’t be happier with my tattoo, Ara is an amazing tattoo artist and the sweetest person!

    Silver Ghost is an inviting and inclusive studio. I recently took a course for Scalp Micro-pigmentation and had an amazing experience. Over the course of the program we were taught so many things by several skilled staff Mitch, Nate and Kurt. Also the front end staff was awesome and friendly and the guest instructor from Vancouver was also amazing. I enjoyed learning from everyone and feel confident in what you all taught us. Studio itself was very clean and inviting.

    I went to Nomadic tattoo to get a piece done that ties in my culture and morals. I booked with Jeremy Bjorgan who took excellent care of me and made the 5
    5 hour session comfortable and enjoyable, the piece looks fantastic and I cannot thank the team at Nomadic enough. Shoutout to Sean, Josh and Natalia for being welcoming to me during my first tattoo.

    Me and my sister got matching tattoos and Sean did them! Amazing work and I got mine a little different and he did great with creating it, he also was great on cleanliness, never been to a tattoo shop that has been that clean or tidy! Great work I’d 100% recommend

    I believe that a tattoo is as much about the art as it is about the experience associated with receiving it. I had been interested in receiving my first tattoo for a while but I had not met an artist who’s personality and art style clicked with me. That was until I was introduced to Alissa by my spouse. From the start Alissa was very welcoming and thoughtful towards me. I never once felt rushed, pressured, or uncomfortable throughout my time there. In my opinion Alissa is a very talented artist who is very detail oriented. It is presently a couple weeks after completion and I am absolutely thrilled with the quality of workmanship. I have only positive feelings about the entire process. Thank you for the great experience and for your exceptional work. I will happily refer people to you and I’m certain that I’ll return for more of your art in the future.

    I have gotten several pieces done at Wonderland Ink and Alissa’s artwork, application, talent, caring, and attention to detail are all top-rate. She is not the first tattoo artist I’ve been to – she’s the fourth – but she’s the one I will continue to return to. The experience is like getting a portable piece of art and visiting with a friend each and every time!
    🌟 Highly recommended. 🌟

    From beginning to end, I had a great experience with Kaitlyn at Chaos Tattoo. She is responsive with messages, conversations flow naturally, and it was easy to feel confident with whom I’d chosen to tattoo me. Kaitlyn is professional and authentic and she completed a beautiful and quality tattoo on my shin, ankle, and calf. Thank you, Kaitlyn, for not only meeting but exceeding my hopes for this piece.

    Kaitlyn was super friendly and helpful with myself and my friend getting our first tattoos. Easy to communicate with, extremely reasonable prices and great work! Will be back 😁

    My self and my best friend went to Rego Tattoos for two different tattoos. He was very fast, clean beautiful line work, and very easy to talk to. I will be recommending him to all family and friends.
    Having a private studio is a big perk so you are able to get comfortable and relax. I Will definitely be going back!

    I had an incredible experience at Rego Tattoos with tattoo artist Patrick. The shop was clean and comfortable, and Patrick was patient, easy to talk to, and helped me overcome my anxiety. He created the perfect designs for my first, second, and third tattoos. Highly recommended!

    I went there as a contractor to complete some work for them, but found that they are good people. Their artwork is unbelievably amazing!!
    So, I went there to work, and HAD to book an appointment so I can get some of his art on my arm. It looks amazing!! Prices were good and experience was GREAT!! Will update with a picture, after heal time.
    Definitely recommend to all.

    I have been going to see Ben and Autumn for over 15 years and will continue to do so. Beautiful studio and they always have all the highest quality supplies. I am vsibly tattooed and get asked often who did my work, it feels great to always get compliments on my tattoos and they’re all done by Fawcett.
