From the business

"Downtown Tattoos & Piercings opened its doors to Frenchmen Street in June of 2012. The shop is owned by Terry Brown, a seasoned artist that has over 20 years of experience tattooing all across the country, along with his lovely wife Hayley Waldner. Besides sharing a passion for tattoo, Terry and Hayley are entrepreneurs at heart, and they jumped at the chance to create the optimal tattoo experience when the corner space on Frenchmen St. became available. In Downtown Tattoos, Hayley and Terry have created an atmosphere that makes one feel as though the shop has been around forever. They are heavily involved with their community, and they love to hold fun events to help them connect with and contribute to the people and causes around them."

Jim is dope! He did such a great job on me and my friend's tattoos, drew my tattoo from scratch, seemed super experienced and really knew what he was talking about. The shop is super cool too, great laid back atmosphere, and everyone was really nice.

Walked in to get a new piece and Jim immediately took care of me and my friend. Created my vision perfectly, hands down the best tattoo I ever have got. The whole shop talked with us and we’re nothing but professional the entire time. Highly recommend Jim @jim_couturier_tattoos. 10/10

I visited this establishment on June 7, 2017, and after my visit, I must say that I highly recommend this tattoo and piercing shop. The staff was friendly and professional. I chose this shop based on other reviews. I had to see the piercing technician, Jared, and he was wonderful. He was very professional, and he is knowledgeable in the area of piercing. A definite plus for me, too, was that the shop is very clean and their practice of keeping instruments, etc. sterile are very good. A thumbs up for me!

We drove 9 hours to get tattoos from Pablo :) Everyone was so nice. Great music playing which is actually pretty important to me for comfort. Clean space. Will be making the trip back as soon as possible!

Bianca was fantastic and Alyssa at the counter was incredibly kind. If I lived here, I'd be back!

I have 11 tattoos and Tracy is the best artist I have had. Even if i move out of town, she will be the only artist I go back to. She is super chill and accommodating in the most desirable shop in New Orleans. Peace.

Treated myself to a birthday piercing in January. The piercer accidentally hit a small vessel in my ear but it wasn't anything detrimental. He corrected the mistake and did a fantastic job on the piercing. He said it would take 6-9 months to heal (industrial). It's been 7 months and its pretty close to healed. Reasonably priced, friendly, fast service which was awesome, considering it's on Frenchmen street where there's tons of walk in business that keeps them busy.

My Wife and I got our first tattoos here to remember our New Orleans visit. Cool customer service and we were in/out in about a hour.

Visiting here from Wisconsin and Wayne has to be the best tattoo artist I’ve ever been to. I’m not too sure about the others customer service but his was phenomenal. 3 of us got a tattoo from him and he actually listens and makes you feel like all of your ideas are important. Very creative and a true artist who is genuine. I definitely recommend him and will be back!
