Dinkytown Tattoo

Went here to get my first tattoo a while back and it definitely wasn’t the greatest experience. I felt very judged and just wasn’t vibing with the store. The tattoo was fine but I was definitely overcharged for 30 minutes of their time. And I tried to get another one done and never heard back from the artist. And they didn’t even wrap my tattoo. just put tape and Saran Wrap on it. Which wouldn’t have been a big deal but I got a similar one done at another shop and it got wrapped, was treated very different here though….

I got my first tattoo last week by Rodney! He does amazing work and is very informative when it comes to the designs, placement, layout, and aftercare routine! Definitely recommend getting tattoos from him! Also, I got to meet a few of the other artists and they are very kind and extremely informative too! Highly recommend this shop!

Dinkytown is this S**t! I've gotten %90 of my tattoos there and it's always a great experience. The atmosphere, the staff and their music taste are all amazing. They haven't seen the last of me!

Really cool atmosphere with some great artists, went to rodney taylor again and he killed it as always.

If you want an amazing portrait tattoo hollar at Sara. Plenty of other talented folks inside as well

Highly recommend this shop! Talented artists in a comfortable space.

Terrible customer service. They put pride over their ability to present quality work.

Very clean. Has that awesome sterile smell Lol Had my tattoo done by Ian. He was super nice and patient with me as I'm still new to getting tattoos. Clean line work and I felt very safe with him! Definitely plan to visit again in the future!

Super awesome artists. Everyone there has a sense of humor, which is well appreciated

There are some great artists there.

Rylee, Rodney, and Jesse are awesome!

I’d been searching for an artist for awhile when I found Jeannie’s page on instagram. I fell in love with her fine line floral work! She is incredibly talented and was so easy to work with. We enjoyed conversing during my appointment and I am obsessed with how my tattoo turned out. I gave her my ideas and she brought them to life with a beautiful, personal design. She puts a LOT of time and effort into each piece of art, and I’m looking forward to working with her again!

Adam likes to give me the pain.

Some of the most talented artists in the city!

Came here with my sister to ask about pricing and if they did fine line tattoos as I see their walk in signs constantly. All I asked was if they did fine line tattoos. A simple yes or no would've been great. But instead, the tattoo artist explained in a whole essay to me about why fine line tattoos are overrated and basically useless. I understand if it was just a few sentences of his own opinion, but it was a whole speech with lots of words of profanity too. Everyone has their own types of tattoos they like and I respect it completely. My type of tattoos that I am interested in are fine line tattoos, not sleeve tattoos, etc. All do respect, I've been trying to find a tattoo shop in Minnesota that does fine line tattoos but everyone's fully booked. I understand if doing fine line tattoos aren't your preference, but I didn't ask to get a whole essay about why they're overrated and useless because they'll fade and because skin stretches. It surprised me because this was my first time here as a customer and he shut me down super fast for having a preference I like. And I literally just asked one question and got a useless speech back about why they are overrated in todays time and he even drew me a picture to explain why when I never asked for a reason. Fine-line tattoos aren't common here, yes. But in Asia, they're pretty popular too, but I can't just travel there to get one done. Disappointed and not choosing this place nor recommending it.

called for a walk in availability on a saturday! was not expecting to be able to get in but I’m very thankful I was. got my mom’s birthday done by Travis on the back of my leg. literally amazing! i cannot wait to surprise her with this next weekend for mothers days. he was incredibly helpful with helping me decide what exactly i wanted. he also didn’t make me feel bad for changing something in his original design. very quick, very clean, & one of the best experiences i’ve had ❤️

Two of their artists have done pieces for me. Clean, smells good, quality work by the artists.

Jeannie is awesome, I’m in love with my new tattoo!! Can’t wait to go back to her for another :)

I had a great experience with Jessica Elliott. Clean and organized shop + artists seemed to be respectful and friendly with each other and clients.

I’ve had several tattoos done by Jeannie and I love them all! She has always been very professional and she’s so talented. She listens to what I want and turns my ideas into tattoos that are better than I could have ever pictured! I’ve always felt very comfortable sitting in her chair and working with her. I can’t wait to get my next tattoo with her!!
