This shop was accommodating and clean, reasonably priced and staffed with really cool people. As a group of six people visiting the area, each of us got tattoos and not a single one of us was disappointed. I have a couple of other tattoos, and honestly the one I got here is the most well done one that I have. Josh did half of the tattoos in our group, including mine, and I was blown away by his work. Im happy we decided to go with this place, were all very impressed with the shop as a whole, the staff, the guys that did our tattoos. (And between six tattoos spanning three separate days, we all spent our fair share of time here). Thanks again to everyone who helped us, you guys are the best! xx
On my recent vacation I wanted to get a tattoo to commemorate my trip and my love for one of my favorite cities. I called to ask if they take walk-ins for flash tattoos and was informed they are first come/first serve. I got there mid-afternoon and had about an hour wait (which to me is very reasonable for a walk-in). My artist was Joel, and he customized my design to fit the area of my body I wanted it on best and ensured that we had great placement. Joel was great to work with and I love the finished product! Would highly recommend for those wanting a quick, professional tattoo experience!
I got tattooed here with a friend while on vacation. The woman that did hers was amazing but the man, Tyler I believe, that did mine was terrible. Unfriendly and unprofessional. He put on my stencil while I was laying down(big no no) and then proceeded to not even tattoo on the stencil. I left with half a tattoo that has no straight lines and not in the location I agreed to.Super disappointed that I have to now figure out if these wonky wiggly lines can be fixed on the two words he did. Absolutely would never recommend this man to anyone ever
Joel did me and my wifes tattoos. Very professional, experienced and high quality work. Could tell cleanliness and health safety were high priorities. I would recommend calling ahead and setting up an appointment. Multiple artists on site but were pretty well booked. Prices were fair and I will recommend this place to anyone interested.Also in the middle of Frenchmen St. In the heart of New Orleans. Lots of jazz clubs and food nearby to add to the experience. Great for locals and tourists.
First I would like to start by saying I have a lot of tattoos. It’s been over 5 years since I have been tattooed. I scheduled with Joel. Never receive any artwork for my tattoo. The day of he drew directly on my hand. Due to the markings being so crude it was hard to see the direction. I was told this was a rough outline and more details would be added. I wish i would have left then but I decided to continue. Once we began Joel lifted my hand in the air multiple times.Another flag. This causes the lines to be uneven and inconsistent due to the pressure and lack of stability. That night upon leaving I was really unable to see everything clearly due to the hand drawn lines still being present. Once the tattoo began to heal it was evident that not only did a majority of the ink fall out. The lines of the tattoo were not tight. I called and sent photos. To be told to call the same artist or have the work corrected by another artist. Which after the work I currently have makes me uncomfortable. Further more the lack of concern regarding the quality of work performed makes me question the integrity of the artist. I will be going back to my long time artist and paying to have this corrected. Never again.
Absolutely amazing shop. Gotten two tattoos in the last few months, and cant recommend them enough.
Loved the experience! Very professional friendly guys! Listened to everything I wanted and didn’t try to force their opinions of what I should get. Reasonable pricing! Felt comfortable as soon as I got there. Highly recommend!
Ash was amazing! He was super attentive to detail, and had reasonable prices. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be back next time Im in town!
Very clean and professional. Mine came out even better than what I came in with. Highly recommend for a good experience! And barely hurt!
Got a tattoo last week while I was in NOLA, everyone was so nice and my tattoo turned out amazing. My artist, Chris, did an amazing job. And the guy behind the front desk was amazing
Three of us were looking to get a flash tattoo on a whim. Electric Ladyland came highly recommended and they exceeded expectations! Friendly, professional, timely, talented. Came for a walk in but we’ll definitely be back!
Nothing but great things to say about this place. I researched and read many reviews about different shops on both the East and West Bank and kept coming back to Electric Ladyland. I didn’t know exactly how I wanted my final tattoo to look. I wanted to work with an excellent artist that could help bring my ideas into a cohesive design. I chose Chris and could not be any happier.When I walked in the shop for my consultation, I was immediately impressed with how clean it was. Upon meeting Chris, I knew I was in good hands. Chris was extremely professional, clean, welcoming, and kind from the consultation to the final cleanup. I had only given him a few vague ideas about how I wanted my tattoo to look: a steel magnolia with a steam punk influence that has rivets so you know it’s made of steel, and a green dragonfly. The moment he showed me his sketch I was blown away by how great it looked. The finished product turned out even better than I could have imagined. Chris is extremely talented and I would recommend him to anyone.In short, nothing but a five star experience with Electric Ladyland and with Chris. If you want a great experience, this is the place to go!
Walked in to get work done, was told to leave a name and number and they’d call when they know how long the wait is. 2 hours pass and we called to check the status. was told just kidding that means nothing and it’s first come first serve. terrible customer service and communication. don’t waste your time.
Excellent artists there especially if you are local, they take their time and effort to ensure your tattoo is what you wanted. Also customer service is AMAZING they definitely get back with you by phone or email.
Amazing experience! i went here for my first tattoo and i felt super welcomed and the artist that did my tattoo, Ash did an amazing job and i could not have asked for a better tattoo. Thank you so much!
The tattoo artist was amazing. She was super friendly and gave me exactly what I wanted. Beautiful tattoo!
Great place! Great staff and great tattoos! Definitely recommend, I had a blast!
Marc did a set of vampire teeth for me while one of the other artists did a set on my friend. We were in nola for 3 days and didnt plan ahead. We called and got set up but they had no appointments available. But they said they had some walk ins the next morning if we could get there early. We showed up and waited around a bit joking with Sam at the front desk. 10/10 customer service.Ill update this as my tattoo heals but I am super pleased with the work and recommend Marc and electric lady to everyone looking for work done in nola. Great shop, great artists. Ill be back for sure.
Me and my wife came in for matching tattoos. Service was great. Tattoo was beautiful. Lizzy was a great artist!
Amazing work by tattooist Chris. We drive 3 hrs each way to get work done and its worth every mile. See you guys again soon!
My artist was Joel and he did an amazing job. The staff were also really friendly and informative. My tattoo came out great. Joel really brought the tattoo to life with his design. Highly recommend this shop for anyone wanting a tattoo in New Orleans.
Mark did such a great job on my voodoo doll! Highly recommended 👌
Tyler and Ash are amazing artists. My husband and I got tattoos and we will definitely be coming back to see the guys.
Friendly staff, clean shop and nice work.
I had a tattoo done over Halloween weekend. Best tattoo on my body. They fit me in on short notice and Ritchie performed my tattoo faster than expected. Ritchie is a great artists, perfect blending of colors, perfect shading. They gave outstanding customer service, quick to reply to all my questions and concerns. Prices are fair. I would absolutely go back to get any other tattoos I recieve!
Visited NOLA for my birthday weekend and decided to get an impulse tattoo... I read the reviews for 15/20 minutes straight before emailing and setting up an appointment! Bobby did my work, and I’ve never been happier! pricing was perfect for what I got and I am truly in love! I have a friend coming here in March to get a tattoo, and I’ll be back this summer for another one! 10/10 would recommend!!
Stoped in on vacation and got my first tattoo would highly recommend Chris Deangel he did a great job talking me threw and did great work
The studio is awesome. Gorgeous, clean and spacious. Theres lots of great art to look at for inspiration. The staff was super friendly and accommodating to my last minute request. They do appointments and walk ins. Well worth the price. Marc was professional and great to work with. He fit a new tattoo around an old one and it looks great!
Talented artists, friendly staff, and clean facilities. I will definitely be back in the future.
Lizzy did a fantastic job on some matching tats for me and my sister. Highly recommend. The studio is clean and well run.
Marc did an awesome job and was quick as well. Very personable staff. Got a great permanent souvenir! Made my trip to nola
I went to get a Helix piercing, I was a bit scared Id admit. BUT.... I had Jared as my piercing consultant, he walked me through the procedure, sterilization and during the process. It was super quick and painless. I asked him a million questions, in which he answered professionally, patiently, and with in-depth knowledge. I was totally comfortable after receiving the information. Prices were exactly as quoted over the phone as well, a definite plus. I hate when prices change when you show up to a place.
Awesome artists, amazing tattoos, and it wont break the bank! I got tattooed by Chris and my husband got tattooed by Dan, we got them as a permanent souvenir from our New Orleans Honeymoon! Both artists were very friendly and had exceptional skill! The shop itself is very clean and the rest of the people working there are also super friendly! They are taking extra precautions for Covid 19 in addition to the already great hygiene standards of the shop! We definitely reccomended anyone looking for quality work, friendly staff, and good prices! Thank you again Chris and Dan for the awesome artwork!
This is another awesome tattoo shop that has many artists and inked a beautiful piece on me and my sister. Thanks so much and stay safe in these times!❤❤
If you want a tattoo that will take longer than 30 minutes then this is NOT your place. They will literally turn you away even if you have money in hand. Girl up front was really nice and everything, just didnt understand why they refused to do the tattoo saying they were just too booked but literally took three little tattoos while we stood there talking to her.
Sam AKA Daddy Shark lol was the absolute bomb for my hand tattoo great conversation witty banter and all a great guy and an even more amazing artist to get my tattoo dream to be as photo realistic as possible! St Louis Cathedral Historical Landmark of New Orleans is what i wanted and exactly what i got its beautiful healed up well just need to touch it up a little because my skin doesnt take well in my hands! but still fantastic 100 out of 10 a must go to stop for your nola tattoo!
If you want to get a great tattoo in New Orleans this is the place to go.
Bobby is absolutely amazing artist! Light handed and fast! Definitely going back!
I visited New Orleans on vacation in July and went to Brianna for my first ever tattoo. It was an amazing experience! Brianna was such a sweet person. She kept everything clean and changed her gloves frequently. She was very gentle and the tattoo healed nicely. I love it so much! I’m wanting to extend the piece she did now, but I’m having trouble finding someone local that’ll bring it to life the way she did. It was wonderful chatting with her and getting a piece of her art on me forever. If you’re ever in the area, go to her!
Got quick little ones from Dan. Super accomodating even with the last minute booking. He did amazing. Super meticulous even with the little stuff
Dan did fantastic!! I absolutely love my new tattoo! I definitely recommend coming here.
Great tattoo, friendly staff. They do take same day walk in appointments which is great if you want a spur of the moment tattoo.
This place absolutely rocks.Fast,good atmosphere,clean work,great artists,badass vibe,and most importantly sterile and healthy tats.
Great artists and awesome work!!! 10/10 recommend if you get the chance!
This is the only place I trust for tattoos in New Orleans. Purely professional - - they take a lot of time up front to be sure theyre giving you exactly what you want; the facilities are neat; the guidance for care of your new tattoo is medically appropriate; if youre trying to make a big mistake, they will let you know. Yesterday I visited Electric Ladyland for the second time. My artist was Sam Dishongh and I highly recommend him. His art is beautiful. He is kind, quick and fun. Love, love, love Electric Ladyland!
We had an amazing time at Electric Ladyland! Chris was mine and my bffs tattoo artist, and did a phenomenal job with designing individual tattoos but making them so they go together! Couldnt have had a better time and the talent certainly lives up to this shop being the most popular in NOLA
Friend got a tattoo, good line work but overpriced.
I had them add on to a piece I had- Richie did an excellent job! He worked with me to make sure it was perfect, and it really shows- the line work came out flawless! Thank you so much!!
The gray and white picture is what I asked for with the red star and the word added, and the color is what I got. I asked to see albums when I came in because I am putting something permanent on my body (I have several tats) and after seeing my piece the desk clerk kind of blew me off because it was easy. But as you can see he didnt really take his time to make sure the lines are clean on the star shapes or that the spacing was good, just kind of sped through. Its an okay tat but definitely could have been better. I didnt try to low ball them either. So make sure you ask for books. Especially at a shop in the main area of a downtown where they get tourists constantly and because of that tend to take things less seriously...
Very professional and clean. Guidelines for Covid are being practiced to make it safe for everyone involved. Sam will provide the information and what you need to do to get started. Chris DeAngel did my work and I am very impressed and happy with the work he did. This was not my first tattoo by far but I think it is one of the best! I live three hours away but I am definitely going back for more!
I went get a tattoo done here and the environment was great!! My artist was Tyler Myers and he was phenomenal!!! I highly recommend him and I plan to go back along with my girlfriend to get more work done and she is excited to get work done from him as well.
Clean and respectable shop! Brianna has done 2 of my tattoo and she’s been such a pleasure working with!! I’ll definitely be getting more tattoos from her and the other guys in the shop. Front desk guys are always warm and welcoming!!
It’s our last day in New Orleans, and we were wanting to get matching tattoos (as a way to commemorate our trip). Luckily we were able to do a walk-in. I had Chris as my tattoo artist, and I highly recommend him. He was very nice to have a conversation with while I got my tattoo, and he did a great job! I’m hoping that I can get back to NOLA again sometime, and would definitely go back!
Wasted our precious time. My daughter was very disappointed after I booked an appointment. An upon arriving I was asked to wait outside after telling them we had an appointment for 2minutes for her to tell me Im sorry but the piercing person did not show up for work today. They could have call me to notify me.However I asked for a refund. I cant trust undependable people. GOOD LUCK
Clean nice friendly staff great
Very expensive on your tattoo pricing.
Super nice, great work.
They are excellent. Always helpful and courteous. Chris Deangle does excellent work. Prices are are reasonable. I highly recommend stopping in if youre in new Orleans visiting
I came on vacation and had plans to get some sort of piece while visiting. I had jimmy and he was awesome. He was very friendly and efficient. The line work on my tattoo is perfect and he did such a good job. Very clean shop and knowledgeable staff. I definitely would recommend!
Great place in the Nola to get a tatt worth The $$$$
Last September Me, my husband, and a group of friends came down to New Orleans from Dallas, TX. I knew I always wanted to get a tattoo while traveling and looked up a few reviews on Electric Ladyland. I sent in an email with my request and with in a matter of minutes I got a reply back. They were very transparent and detailed. Chris asked me multiple questions to make sure he got everything right. Honestly Chris was amazing and I cant recommend him enough!! Will possibly get another when we head down this September. If you are looking at a tattoo parlor this is the one.
Clean place. Great artists!
Came in as a walk-in to get a tattoo to mark my 50th bday. Looked through some New Orleans flash and picked out a little voodoo doll, and had them ad New Orleans- 2-23-18. Price was more than reasonable! New Seattle transplant artist Sam did a quick and excellent job, and my girlfriend got the same tattoo by him right after I was finished. Great place, friendly people. And even recommended a cool bar down the street. Highly recommended!
Great experience. Josh is the best!!
Got a tattoo here with my husband just over a week ago. Bobby did this tattoo quickly and with the ultimate care. Its almost fully healed now and I couldnt be happier with how it turned out. My husband was tattooed by Sam and his tattoo turned out awesome as well. I definitely recommend this tattoo shop and would go back in a second if we lived in the area. Thanks again fellas!!
Dan was great! Easy to get in and executed our idea perfectly!
The staff is amazing! We were walk-ins and my mom and I decided to get matching tattos while we were in town. They flawlessly executed the concept for that one but ESPECIALLY my moms other one that she wanted. She came in with barely a concept at all and they walked her through sizing options, design options, and created something she loved. Chris andMark were our artists and they. Are. AWESOME!
Excellent artist and superb, clean shop!
Writing this review 7 years after I was there to get the skull tatty on my thigh. I have 30+ tattoos and this one is by far the best quality. The ink has stayed fresh and the line work is amazing. I’ll be heading back there next month to get my next one. If you’re in NOLA, this is the place to be.
Who would have thought Id be getting a tattoo? Well, on a short layover to NOLA, I mustered up the courage to get my first tattoo.I was walking around the area and happened upon Electric Ladyland Tattoo. My artist new I was a virgin and treated me with the greatest care. I am so thrilled with the results, Im considering a second Tattoo! Thank you for the excellent service!
