Do I need to create an account?

No account is needed to search, browse, or view shop information. You can explore our entire directory as a guest. We only ask for your name when you submit a review.

How do I search for tattoo shops?

Use our search bar at the top of any page to find shops by name, city, or state. You can also browse by state, city, or use our filters to narrow results by style, rating, price range, and more.

How accurate is the shop information?

We review shop listings before they appear on our site. Information is regularly updated from shop websites, social media, and user submissions. If you notice outdated info, you can report it via our contact form.

What do the ratings mean?

Ratings are based on authentic customer reviews submitted through our platform. They reflect overall satisfaction with artwork, professionalism, cleanliness, and customer service. We moderate reviews to prevent spam.

Are the reviews real?

Yes. All reviews are submitted by real users and undergo moderation to prevent spam. We rate-limit submissions to help maintain authenticity and remove any inappropriate content.

Do shops pay for better ratings or placement?

Absolutely not. Tattoo Shop Locator is committed to transparency. Shop rankings are based purely on ratings, reviews, and relevance to your search. We don't accept payment for placement or ratings.

How do I find shops that specialize in a specific style?

Use our specialty filters on the search page or browse shops by style. Many shops list their specialties (Traditional, Realism, Japanese, Fine Line, etc.) in their profiles.

Can I book appointments through Tattoo Shop Locator?

We don't handle bookings directly. Each shop profile includes contact information (phone, website, Instagram) so you can reach out to the shop directly to discuss your project and schedule an appointment.

How can I add my shop to the directory?

Use our 'Submit a Shop' page to add your studio. Submissions are reviewed by our team and typically approved within 2-3 business days. Listings are completely free with no hidden costs.
