Tattoo Artist Mega List

I asked my Instagram followers for their tattoo artist suggestions and this is our community list for artists around the world.

It’s finally here.

The TATTOO ARTIST MASTER LIST.

Out of every master list I’ve made, this is the one I’ve been most excited to put together. I asked my Instagram followers to send in their favorite tattoo artists from around the world, and this is the massive roundup we ended up with. I also added artists I’ve personally been tattooed by, along with a bunch whose work I’ve been obsessing over lately and would love to get tattooed by someday.

There are some seriously incredible artists in here — I personally went through every single submission. The layout ended up being way harder than I expected. I originally linked everyone’s Instagram accounts so you could easily click through, but when I checked last night, a bunch of the links were randomly redirecting to completely different accounts :/

Soooo for now, I’ve linked my personal add-ons, and if I get more time in the future I’ll slowly keep updating the rest. Until then, go explore, fall down some rabbit holes, and discover some new favorites.

Hope you enjoy!!
