Each of these parlors is filled to the brim with talented artists who run the gamut of styles, designs, and ideas. Whether you want a realistic black-and-grey pterodactyl wearing a cowboy hat, a traditional style rose with a dagger, or even something super original like an infinity symbol on your wrist with the word “abide,” there is a tattoo artist in the Queen City who can turn your dream into a reality. This is by no means a definitive list of the dozens of shops and hundreds of talented artists in Charlotte, but it’s a great place to start if you’re looking to get your first (or 20th) permanent masterpiece. Give these shops and artists a follow! And that tattoo you’ve been thinking about for years? Life’s short, go get it! ### **WE NEED YOUR HELP** We know tattoos are very personal. These are just some of our favorites. But, we may have missed yours. We’re going to keep this list going. So, if you have a suggestion of a parlor that should be added,[**let us know here.**](https://www.charlotteiscreative.com/contact/) (PSST! We’ll need a name and a website or an Instagram feed to help us find them.) --- ### [Charlotte Tattoo Company](https://www.instagram.com/clt_tattoo/) > View this post on Instagram > > > > > > [A post shared by Charlotte Tattoo Company (@clt\_tattoo)](https://www.instagram.com/p/CBY6JSrn8s-/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) on Jun 13, 2020 at 1:48pm PDT **Address: [1514 Central Ave, Charlotte, NC 28205](https://www.google.com/maps?q=charlotte+tattoo+company&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjTjfrAwdTqAhUrTt8KHVOcAncQ_AUoAXoECBwQAw)** **Website: [clttattoo.com](https://www.clttattoo.com/)** **Instagram: [@clt\_tattoo](https://www.instagram.com/clt_tattoo/)** **Artists:** - **[Billy Harris](https://www.instagram.com/billyharris/)** - **[Justin Carpenter](https://www.instagram.com/justintattoosnc/)** - **[Mickey P](https://www.instagram.com/mickeyputts/?hl=en)** - **[Kevin Smith](https://www.instagram.com/kevindoesworkkid/)** - **[Hugo Tattoo & Art](https://www.instagram.com/hugotattoonart/)** - **[Anna Hood](https://www.instagram.com/hoodlum_tattoo/)** - **[Scott Cole](https://www.instagram.com/scottcoletattoo_clt/)** - **[Bryan Flanagan](https://www.instagram.com/bfart/)** --- ### [Seventh Sin Tattoo Company](https://www.instagram.com/SeventhSinTattoo/?hl=en) > View this post on Instagram > > > > > > [A post shared by Seventh Sin Tattoo Company (@seventhsintattoo)](https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJb5xKFyg9/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) on Jul 2, 2020 at 10:05am PDT **Address: [927 Central Ave, Charlotte, NC 28204](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Seventh+Sin+Tattoo+Company/@35.2219087,-80.824406,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x8856a01cbc819aaf:0x6ce5c61ba0f22d15!8m2!3d35.2219087!4d-80.822212?hl=en-US)** **Website: [seventhsintattoo.com](https://seventhsintattoo.com/)** **Instagram: [@seventhsintattoo](https://www.instagram.com/SeventhSinTattoo/?hl=en)** **Artists:** - **[Chris Toler](https://www.instagram.com/christoler/?hl=en)** - **[Tivis Phillips](https://www.instagram.com/invadertiv/)** - **[Hannah Mckee](https://www.instagram.com/babysharktattoos/?utm_source=ig_embed)** - **[Will Gonzalez](https://www.instagram.com/willjgonzalez/?hl=en)** - **[Jon Ronzka](https://www.instagram.com/jonronzka/?hl=en)** --- ### [Made to Last Tattoo](https://www.instagram.com/madetolasttattoo/) > View this post on Instagram > > > > > > [A post shared by ???? ?? ???? ??????
