Traditional Wolf tattoo
Jesse D.

I would recommend this shop to anyone who is looking for a quality tattoo. Everyone is friendly and very helpful. I got a tattoo from Frog and he absolutely killed it!

We got married right next door and wanted to get tats. I called earlier in the day to see if we needed an appt they said no someone should be free just walk in. I wish I did make an appt tho because it got super busy. We waited about an hour. They are cash only which I wish we knew prior although they have an ATM in the back. Charles and Ryan did our tats. We just got something super simple just a wave with a palm tree but they both did really clean lines. Shop minimum is $100 we kind felt that it should of been shop minimum with the size of it. But it is what it is. We were happy with how it turned out.

My husband and I got married in Vegas and wanted to get some tattoos to celebrate! Just walked in and asked if they had any openings and Frog was able to get us in right away ! Nice dude ; easy to talk to and did a great job ! Loved this shop -- Definitely check them out ! Thanks Frog !

Scarred tattoo
Imani S.

Buffalo Jake hammered into my skin leaving scares , no I am not prone to scarring or keloids . This was my 6/7th tattoo and I even got tattoos after this that did NOT scar . My lower stomach has stretch marks and it didn't scar after a decent sized tattoo . Seeing the scars I was left with often makes me sad or cry . Now I have to pay for skin removal if I want his mistake fixed

So glad I decided to come to here! I was in town for my birthday last week and had already decided that I wanted to get some ink and was not disappointed at all. Came in as a walk in and right away was greeted by Devin. Told him what I wanted which was super minimal and small and he was able to get me in with Buddy. Buddy made me feel super comfortable and made the whole process a breeze. I could've went to any of the shops on the strip for what I wanted but I'm so happy I chose this one. The shop itself is pretty gnarly and decked out with many many drawings that you could totally get lost in. Thanks again Buddy & Devin for making my bday even more special :) (Still laughing from you telling me to turn my head and I just couldn't get it right LOL)

Highly recommended shop! I LOVE American Tradition style and every artist at this shop delivers! Clean and loved the retro feel. My goal is to hopefully get something done by everyone each time I visit Vegas. I had reached out to Drew Curico a week before I got to Vegas and was lucky he had my available date and time. I already knew what I wanted and he did not disappoint. Super friendly artist and genuinely cares about his clients well being! He gave me my 8th tattoo and during the whole process, he made sure I was good. Thanks again Drew for my beautiful new piece!

I don't think I could truly give them a bad review, (Back Story- my daughter came here from Bakersfield and got a stunning tattoo from Jacob) I wanted to get a tattoo for my birthday. A really good friend of mine has a (Heck I don't know what he is, Baby daddy son in law, Ex -son-in-law, it doesn't matter) he is an artist, so we worked it out and that is a hole other story or review, It didn't work out the way I wanted, so I got in touch with my daughter and she gave me Jacobs contact information. I reached out to him via IG and we set an appointment for 1:00pm on Saturday. We walked in and they called me by name, and said Welcome Back! They remembered me from when I came with my daughter! Jacob said I am just about done , I asked him if I had time for Starbucks? He said yes. I went and got Starbucks and came back to the shop. They let my husband sit next to me and, Jacob talked to me the whole time and made me feel like I mattered. I got the Tattoo I wanted at a fair price and it is absolutely stunning! Scale of 1 - 10 Location 8. Parking is a bit of a Bear at first- until I found the parking lot in the back Cleanliness +10. I felt as though they went above and beyond with the cleanliness. Customer Service +10. Everyone was very nice and helpful. Artistry +10. Everyone of them are truly gifted.

Line work on point!

I booked with Amanda Bonhomme prior to coming into town after seeing her work and wanted to get a tattoo in memory of my grandfather who had passed away last year. I had sent over a couple of references and was going back and forth on color as all of my other work is black and grey. When I got to the shop everyone was super friendly and Amanda was awesome. She gave me a couple of layout options and several shading/color examples of what the finished product would look like. She's a true pro and killed it! My tattoo turned out even better than I had hoped for with all of the highlighting and color touches that she added to it. The finished product was perfect and an amazing way to keep the memory of my grandfather with me always. I would definitely recommend Amanda and Downtown Tattoo if you are looking for an awesome American Traditional tattoo. Thank you Amanda!!!

My husband brought me to Downtown Tattoo for my birthday Ryan put my favorite scripture on my arm I LOVE IT!
Tiana S.

We like the work and service here and we're recommended it to family & friends. Thank you for the great job Ryan

I made an appointment with Amanda a week before my 18th birthday she took my ideas down and told me she's looking forward to me coming back to get the tattoo done. I had a 7pm tattoo appointment she met with me and I explained to her I wanted a baseball with the ribbon or a rose with a ribbon. 2 separate designs. She surprised me with 3 designs. The 3rd design she combined my ideas into into one & let me just say I am so happy she did! It turned out awesome. The shop was awesome clean & a great environment & amazingly priced! I will be getting tattoo'd by Amanda in the near future! I love my 1st tattoo!

Did the get what you get for 100 bucks
Ricardo G.

Came in The shop environment was cool, playing good music. I didn't get the shop assistant name but he has a skull tattoo on his head he's very friendly and makes you feel comfortable. I got tattooed By Ryan I wanted to come on here because I think he did an awesome job. Guy has a really light hand . I highly recommend him . Only complaint I have is that this shop is out here and I'm in Cali. Great place hopefully I can comeback again and choose something off the wall. Till then!

Hello! Has your shop minimum changed, or is it still $100? Thank you!

It’s still $100

What's the shop minimum?

Our shop minimum is $100! :)

Any I can get a quote?

How much is it for 1 nipple piercing

Sorry we don’t do piercings and we only tattoo people over 18.

Would y'all do minors (17) accompanied by a parent?

No. 18 and over.

What is the shops minimum tattoo price?

I found them to be very reasonably priced especially if you look at the quality of the work. You will be lucky to go there.

What's the minimum price?

I believe it was 80$

Do they except 15 year olds?

Nope

I'm taking my 15 year old daughter on a road trip to Vegas to get a tattoo... will you do it with parent consent?

I'm almost sure you must be 18 to get a tattoo no matter what in NV. But I'm not 100% sure.

Which artist would be the best to go too for a tattoo design similar to a tree of life?

I'm not 100%, however, Buddy seemed to be a well rounded artist not just a tattooist. I'd bet ya a dollar to a dozen doughnuts that Buddy would do an excellent job.

Do you do watercolor tattoos?

We do them all!

Will you be open Monday, Feb 19th?

Yes. The shop is open Sunday through Thursday 12pm-8pm and Friday and Saturday 12pm-10pm.

We do cover ups. You’ll need to come by so we can see what you want covered.

Sorry, we don’t do piercings.

What's the pricing like? i wanna get two small tattoos ones smaller than a dollar bill and the other is smaller than a small dinner plate?

They start at $80. For exact prices you’ll need to come by and discuss your ideas.

Are you doing the Friday the 13th tattoos deal?

No.

FRANK Oh. My. God…read more Where do I even begin with this absolute fever dream of an experience. I went to frank for a tattoo thinking I was about to embark on a meaningful, spiritual journey of self-expression. What I actually embarked on was a psychological thriller directed by someone who once saw a tattoo machine in a YouTube ad and said, "Yeah, I can do that." First of all, this man's studio looked like a storage unit that lost a custody battle. The "vibe" was somewhere between abandoned dentist office and haunted vape shop. There was a single folding chair that sounded like it was begging for mercy every time I breathed. Now let's talk about the tattoo. I actually had to take a lap around the studio because WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT'S ON MY BODY FOREVER AND IT'S PERFECT??? The lines are so clean they look AI-generated. The shading? So smooth it feels illegal. The placement? Spiritual. Cosmically aligned. If I stand at the right angle I'm pretty sure it unlocks inner peace. I keep catching myself staring at it like it's a new pet. I have shown it to strangers. I have adjusted my outfits to make sure it's visible. I moisturize it like it's royalty. If it asked me for rent, I would pay it. The pain? Worth it. The adrenaline? Elite. The emotional attachment? Concerning. This tattoo has changed my personality. I now say things like "yeah, my artist..." as if I've been part of an underground art collective for years. I have zero chill about it. If you make eye contact with me for longer than two seconds, I will show you. Five stars for talent. Five stars for making me question reality. I walked in mildly nervous and walked out feeling like I had just been branded by a mysterious but benevolent art deity. Would I go back? Absolutely. Would I understand him any better? Probably not. Do I care? Not even slightly. Anyway, 10/10. No notes. I would absolutely let this happen to me again.

I walked in as a normal human being and left spiritually reconfigured, emotionally moisturized, and…read morepermanently superior in a slightly concerning way. All because of Frank. The line work? Cleaner than Charlie Sheen. The shading? Smoother than my ability to make responsible life choices. At one point I genuinely considered framing the stencil and starting a minimalist life devoted solely to admiring it. Not only did he absolutely demolish my expectations (in a good way, like i demolish Taco Bell after a breakup bender), but the vibes were immaculate. 10/10 would trust him with my skin, my secrets, and possibly the deed to my house. Book the appointment. Let him alter your molecular structure. You won't regret it.

This was my best tattoo experience yet. I have sat for dozens of hours getting tattooed, and while…read moreI value the experience, being tattooed by Amethyst was special in specific ways. Along with her studio being very relaxing, the atmosphere she creates herself as the artist is safe and calming. Her artistry is unmatched, which you can see with examples of her work. I will certainly be returning for pieces by her and her husband. If you want a tattoo and you want it to be stellar, definitely come to Lunar Ink. I know I will be back again!

Getting this tattoo meant a lot to me, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience than the…read moreone we had with Amethyst this past weekend in Las Vegas. Inspired by the Welcome to Holland poem, my friend and I got matching tulip tattoos--something deeply personal, but also full of beauty and meaning. From the very beginning, Amethyst was everything you hope for in a tattoo artist and more. She was incredibly responsive, warm, professional, and knowledgeable. There's a calm, poised energy about her that instantly puts you at ease--especially if you're someone who finds the whole tattoo process a little intimidating (which, let's be real, a lot of us do). She walked us through every step with clarity and care, making sure we felt comfortable and confident the entire time. Her shop was clean, stylish, and had such a cool, welcoming vibe. And the aftercare kit she gave us? So thoughtful and well put together--it really showed how much she cares about her clients beyond just the appointment. Getting a tattoo is a permanent decision, and finding someone you trust with that is not easy. But Amethyst is absolutely worth that trust. Whether you're local to Vegas or just visiting like we were, she is 100% worth it. 12/10 experience--no notes

We found ourselves here the night before our flight, as I'm not one to trust a super cheap shop. Tony was amazing. I wanted to fit into the theme of north arrows but I didn't want to be literal as I already have a compass tattoo. I'm from Oregon and wanted a stalk of lavender and a bee. Tony understood the assignment and made it so artsy I can't stop looking at it. I'm not sure if I asked for an arrow, as I was exhausted from being out as sober support for my other surveyors after hours, but there is a shape of one with the bee and flower. I traced the lines on a photo because I am that professional and so my qa/qc . I truly love it! The whole appointment was a wonderful experience and now we both have a bee tattoo. I never get spontaneous tattoos and I'm so glad this worked out so well. I doubt I'll do it again unless I find Tony! I'll likely find him/travel if I get another larger tattoo in the future. Also, I want to note he was very respectful and aware I was a child of trauma with issues and a fidget toy. He not only watched for any buddy language, but also empathize with me in his families life experiences. Easiest tattoo experience I have had and it erased a "bad" experience relating to another tattoo artist, though their work was also very good.
