GOOD Tattoo Artists in Las Vegas.... please!

[Dolly Marlowe {*}]

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!

So, a good friend of mine has his heart set on getting tattooed at H&H over the Viva Las Vegas Weekend. I happen to think it'll be a mob scene over there & he should have some other options lined up. Does anyone know of some lesser known shops with really talented artists he could go to?

Last Chance Tattoo @ 4012 South Rainbow Blvd. not too far away from the Orleans (about 15-20 min maybe)
H&H will kill your wallet. Last Chance has fantastic artists there. they are very clean & professional. i had a hard time finding a good artist (i have a lot of bad work, ugh) until i found them. they are known here in town to have very good work. i would stay away from any Diversity shops & the strip.
hope this helps

I was gong to suggest H&H, but you can also try Vince Neil Ink, Starlight, and the place where a lot of the locals go Diversity.

[Dear Daniel]

The bad thing about Vince Neil Ink is its on the strip so its always jam packed. I havent heard too many good stories with Diversity. Before you go anywhere just do some internet research.

My husband and I were planning on going there for some ink, we called and they only take walk-ins, and his quote for a medium sized tattoo on his arm (which is kinda small) would be from 600-1000...holy expensive! so my husband and I are also looking for back-up artists

I think we'll go somewhere non touristy and off the strip

Don't go to H&H... it's VERY OVERPRICED! These are artists I already do trust and will always trust to do my work. They are all amazing!

Osker Gurerro @ Precious Slut on Charleston [phone]

Dano @ Vince Neil Ink @ O'Sheas [phone]

Reasonably priced, great artists and mostly my friends for years! And they are all great guys!

NOOO! H&H is insanely over priced. You pay more for the 'celebrity' of the shop than the quality of their work.

I recommend going to Studio 21 Tattoo. Austin Spencer is AMAZING (he did my back), but everyone at that shop turns out high quality work. Definitely look at their website.

Thank you! I'll pass these along.

GASP! Don't forget about Vegas' own DIRK VERMIN! Hahahhaaa!

I've heard lots of good things about that place. i've never personally had any art done there but have a few friends that have gone in the past who love it there.
