Platinum Rose Tattoo Studio & Gallery

This studio is absolutely stunning! Ella is incredibly friendly and an amazing artist! My friends and I came all the way from New York to get our tattoos. The picture I asked for was pretty boring and she made it so creatively realistic and aesthetically pleasing, I love it!!!

Extremely talented artists and a clean, comfortable location. I am truly blown away by my experience here. My appointment was with Josh today - it was fantastic. You are in very good hands at Platinum Rose!

My dad got a tattoo done on his forearm from Jacob Grant & he absolutely loves it! They did a great job in a timely manner & are very reasonable in price! 5 stars for sure for Jacob!

First time at Platinum & I must say I love it! Great atmosphere with clean beautiful surroundings! Jacob took me in as a walk in & he is the greatest! He is kind, accommodating & gentle. I will be back to see him again!

Matthew did a great job on my first big tattoo. The atmoshere is great! A very eclectic group of artists. Would highly recommend the Platinum Rose.

The positive experiences that I have as a result of this studio and the talented staff are too plentiful to count. I had as a young man made some incredibly bad decisions regarding the art of tattoo.

Josh Fields apprenticing under the late Hardcore Hank Bertka took on the sizable task of covering up these mistakes. Over the next 20 years I would continue going back to Josh and later resident artist Matthew Lukesh for all of my tattoo work.

Both artists have spent hundreds of hours working on me including 160 hours on “The Origin Project” a sprawling half suit of cosmic beauty that spans from foot to shoulder. I trust no other artists but Josh and Matt and only would consider anyone else under their professional eye.

The work that The Platinum Rose has done and continues to do is in my opinion the best tattoo artwork in this area and beyond. The first few tattoos I had done elsewhere were immediately regrettable and no where near the quality of those I had seen in magazines and tattoo publications.

Every single tattoo I have had done at The Platinum Rose leaves me feeling extremely excited and satisfied. Josh and Matt have transformed my body into something I am proud to wear, which is a far cry from the tattoos of old I used to be ashamed of.

I will never go to another studio and it is likely I will never let anyone else touch my skin. I have to thank Platinum Rose for what they are, a group of professionals that goes the extra mile to ensure their product is the best the industry provides. If you want a tattoo there are plenty of places. If you want art on your body? There is only one choice.

Thanks for all you do fellas. No better artists and no better friends.

We walked into the studio and the vibe was amazing- the artisits were very nice and absolutley hularious, they make it feel like home. The place is extreamly clean and the layout is really cool over all.
I had Jacob, would definatly reccomend him, he did it exactly how I wanted and was very attentive to detail.
Will be back for my next tatoo.

Great, clean tattoo shop in downtown CR. Much more relaxed environment than other shops in the area. No flame printed carpets or black spray painted ceiling tiles here. Decently priced for the quality of work done here. It’s a shop you can safely go in without an artist specifically in mind, even with the most basic of ideas, and you will still come out with a unique and well done tattoo.

Matt was exceptional in his quality and professionalism. We will be repeat customers no doubt. Went again, this time met with Ella and she was a delight to work with. Her work is vibrant with intricate detail exceeding all expectations. Would give this place more than five stars if possible.

Platinum Rose is a great tattoo shop the best artists in Cedar Rapids! Ella is an awesome artist great detail even with very small tattoos! If your going to commit to a tattoo this is the place to go!!!
