North Main Tattoo Studio & Art Gallery

Barb Jones did an amazing job! I had a rough idea of what I was going for, but she brought the idea to life in a way that was better than I even imagined. She made everything really easy - all I had to do was sit back and watch/talk true crime cases with her while she made it happen. Very cool, friendly, professional person who does great work.

I started my sleeves in L.A. and moved back to the Detroit area before they were finished. Aaron Ruby was able to continue my sleeves and improve the work I had already started. The work he did is WAY better than anything I had done in Los Angeles or Ann Arbor. Aaron was patient and listened while I showed him all my inspiration pics. He was great at communicating what would look good and working with me to assure I got the tattoo I wanted. The shop is the cleanest, most elegant shop I've ever been in and the receptionist were polite and knowledgeable. My entire experience was excellent. I'll never go anywhere else! Thank you North Main Tattoo Studio.

I had my first tattoo done by Aura and it was probably the best experience I could have had. My tattoo is still brightly colored and holding up very well after 4 years, even though it’s watercolor. I’m definitely going back to her once I figure out what I want next. She’s a very talented artist and has some the cleanest linework and shading I’ve ever seen

Absolutely love these guys & gals! Place looks amazing and so professional. Not your typical tattoo shop. Building has been totally renovated and has a great atmosphere. Love, love, love my tattoo that Jay did. I'm just amazed at his line work!!!

Good luck in your new place. No doubt it will be a success.

I had the most wonderful experience here! First of all, my tattoo artist, Ryan Methric, is AMAZING. He knows his stuff. He will work with you, and lead you in the right direction! We did half of my 3/4 sleeve this past Saturday and it is BEAUTIFUL.. very excited to finish in a few week!
Secondly, the receptionists and other artists are very cool and personable.
Finally, the shop itself is insanely clean and very classy!

If your looking for a place that has talent, cleanliness, and experience, this is your shop!

Can't speak for the other artists there, but Aaron Ruby is the GOAT. I'm a repeat customer and only trust him for tattoos at this point, especially for intricate and difficult works. He's worth the wait. His honey is tasty and worth a jar if you stop by after he harvests his bees.

Just saw Tiffany and all I can say is wow. My tattoo is everything I wanted and more. She made me feel completely comfortable and Maddie had me laughing hysterically. Loved the vibe and the overall experience. Can't wait to schedule my next!

I will not go anywhere else from now on, they are the cleanest and most professional I've ever seen. I have been tattooed by both owners now and not only are they amazing at what they do, they are kind human beings. It is extremely rare to find a tattoo studio that is not only good at what they do but make you feel welcomed and appreciated. Whether you're fully tattooed or you have no tattoos you will be just as welcomed.

My artist, Ryan Methric, was great! He helped me add/fix an older tattoo and it turned out better than expected. All the little details associated with the job were addressed as well: updating me on the progress, making sure I was comfortable, etc... I've found the artist that will be doing all my work from here on out. The studio and gallery was very classy and friendly. Everyone I encountered was a pleasure to deal with. Great experience!!

Aura and North Main are the only places I plan on going in my life. The ideas I send and her ability to make so much more out of them leaves me excited for the next visit. Even more so the personality of anyone I have met there has been incredible. Can't wait to go on vacation and come back to get a new piece of the world on my body.
