Best Tattoo Shops near me in Downtown, Calgary

The absolute best brows and perfection for the fine line tattoo I had done. Alisha blends her grounded, laid back style with professionalism in such a way that it is a pleasure to spend time with her. Highly recommend!

My experience was fantastic. Alisha is an exceptional person with the skills and qualities that make me want to keep coming back. This is my 3rd tattoo she has done and I am genuinely happy with all 3 of them. The animals are my favorites 😍 so far. Anytime I want to pamper myself or have something done I check out her website. There are always promos and flash sales. Boss Beauty is a 1 stop shop of all your esthetic needs and wants.

My experience was great! I was greeted kindly. Offered a coffee, tea or water, some snacks... Alisha was amazing at helping me stay calm and breathe through some of the more spicy parts of my tattoo. It was a great experience and I will definitely go back for more of my tattoos and my pampering needs. At Boss Beauty they do almost everything! It's a 1 stop beauty shop. And everyone that works there are genuine and kind. Thanks Ladies and Alisha!

Friendly staff, clean shop # 1 shop in Calgary 👊

I was booked in for a color tattoo touch up. Alisha is a true professional, ensuring my comfort level was ok, her “Shop” is beautiful and well lit. My tattoo came out so bright and vibrant.

Beyond happy with the memorial tattoo I got yesterday for my brother. Cris is a guest tattoo artist, but I also got to see Josh’s work on a few people throughout my long session and I’d go back to see him if Cris is done when I am ready for my next. Very clean shop using high quality inks. Fun atmosphere. 100% recommend!

Great as usual

Loved the atmosphere and my tattoo by Milo, she has the lightest hand when tattooing, and draw my vision right on the spot. I’m so happy with the results and planning to go back :)

5 star great. Josh is very personable and the shop was spotless and inviting. Tattoo done by Sam. She is very friendly, always asks how you're doing during the tattooing and she does amazing work. I absolutely love my new art work. More than 5 stars given. Thank you Sam, Josh and 1st Street Tattoos.

Alisha always does an incredible job in a safe , clean work space. She always goes above an beyond anytime I am in and I would highly recommend getting your UV lashes done with Alisha at boss beauty.

Josh is hands down the best artist i have ever come across & the only one i will ever let tattoo me from here on out. Thanks guys so much. 💯

I had a great experience getting my tattoo done here. The artist was professional, easy to talk to, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. The shop was clean and welcoming, and I’m really happy with how my tattoo turned out. I would definitely come back again.

You guys are a great team and your lovely tattoo artist does a fantastic job

Just got a beautiful hand tattoo for my birthday. Jacob and everyone at the shop were amazing. Will definitely be back for many more tattoos.

Alisha was very calming therapeutic caring in the most professional practice I have experience from a tattoo artist 🪶🍄💐

Cris was incredibly kind and professional throughout the entire experience. It was my daughter’s first tattoo, and he made her feel comfortable and confident from the very beginning. He took her original idea and elevated it into something truly beautiful, guiding her with care and creativity every step of the way. The final result turned out amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with both the tattoo and the way Cris treated us. Highly recommended!

It was one of my better tattoo experiences.

Chris was amazing! So gentle and very good at what he does. Thank you again so much love my tattoo! 🩷
