Tattoo shops

Hey guys. I moved from the quad cities to dsm about 2 years ago now and i dont really want to make the 6 hr round trip to get some stuff added to my sleeve. What are some of the best shops around here? Im talking top notch 5 star quality

Skin Kitchen, specifically Jack, is arguably the best shop/artist in Des Moines.

Derek Hutchison at Bombshell Tattoo is also very well respected. His wife Nicci is covered with his work.

Really all depends on what style your after.

Tattoo artist are like a good doctor or provider. Once you find one that you're comfortable with its hard to move to someone else.

Good luck and thanks for reminding me that I need more ink.

I second Arcadian Tattoo, Taylor Ross does amazing work.

I'm so jealous. I want/need more ink. It relaxes me
