1st Street Tattoo is easily my favourite studio in Calgary. The vibe in the studio is awesome, and you can tell everyone genuinely loves what they do, and I love how much the artists support each other. They’re always hyping each other up and giving props for great work, which says a lot about the kind of people working there. I’d definitely recommend seeing Sean, but truly all the artists are the bomb. Don’t bother going anywhere else.

Honestly, a great experience from the moment I stepped in the door as a walk-in to a week later when I was getting tattooed. Sean is the tits when it comes to artists - super friendly, welcoming, informative, creative, and that hair!!! I would highly recommend Sean and 1st Street Tattoo! Go now!

Did a great job of explaining the tattoo and potential outcomes with fingers tattoos. Was thorough in the design phase and made the entire visit, incredibly fun. These were pretty meaningful tattoos for me and my wife. They allowed us to smudge the area ahead of time which meant a lot to her and her heritage. But highly recommend these guys Thanks for a great experience

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.

Josh is that rare mix of class clown and perfectionist. He’ll have you laughing through your tattoo while double checking every bit of sanitation like he’s prepping for surgery. The guy’s got jokes, skill, and passion for doing things right. You can tell he truly cares about his craft and clients, equal parts good time and serious professional. Come for the ink, stay for the chaos, good vibes, and an artist who somehow turns every session into both a comedy show and a masterclass in tattoo fundamentals.

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.

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!
