I was a bit nervous getting my first ink at age 61. However, Arthur patiently walked me through the whole process, making everything easy. Seeing some of his previous work, I knew how highly skilled he was, and I'm super happy with my tattoo.The shop is clean and bright, and the whole crew here is professional. Overall, a great experience, and one I would highly recommend.

North Ink Tattoo Studio is simply amazing! 🖤 We were on vacation in Canada, and on our second-to-last day I spontaneously decided to get a tattoo. Luckily, I was able to get a last-minute appointment. The entire North Ink team is incredibly friendly and welcoming – I felt comfortable right away. Thank you so much for the amazing work and for making such a wonderful ending to our vacation! 🫶🇨🇦

I had an excellent experience getting a tattoo from Yev. He's steady, precise, and efficient. My tattoo looks great and it was an overall chill experience. Definitely recommend, especially to people that it's their first tattoo. He has a light hand, which is ideal for someone like me with hypermobile skin. Will definitely be getting inked here again in the future.

Highly recommend getting not just a tattoo, but a beautiful art piece from Erik! He truly takes pride in his work and puts so much care into every detail. He also checks in throughout the process to make sure you’re comfortable, which made the whole experience even better.I showed my tattoo to my mama afterwards, and she indeed loved it!! 😂

I have a number of tattoos already and wanted to do something a little different. My experience with the shop from beginning to end was amazing! The artist I worked with (Yev)!was patient with all my changes. He was open to discussion and came with suggestions and feedback. The atmosphere was welcoming and I would (will) go back.

How to Get a Tattoo You Won’t Regret
Most people get their first tattoo 'wrong.' Not because it looks bad, but because they haven't learned how to work with an artist yet. I’ve been tattooing since 2013, and I want to help you skip the 'beginner' phase and get straight to the magic. The Beginner Usually it goes like this. The first tattoo is something small and simple. Pain is a concern, commitment feels scary, so people play it safe. Then, gradually, tattoos get bigger and more complex.…

When a tattoo starts peeling?
Why Tattoos Peel After a Few Days After you get a tattoo, a few days later, it starts peeling. Why does it happen, and what should you do? Let’s go back to some fundamentals: Our skin is layered and grows from the inside. Skin cells are generated on the inner levels, they’re quite watery and full of fluids, and slowly they move up and dry out. The top layer of our skin is basically dead skin cells. It’s like a…

The Concept Behind North Ink Tattoo
When I tell people I own a tattoo shop, they assume it’s because of my love for tattoos. The truth? I’m obsessed with building great businesses. Tattoos are an amazing product, but what excites me the most is creating a shop that runs smoothly, serves clients well, and gives artists a great place to work. Although I started my first shop six years ago as a tattoo artist, I quickly realized that while doing tattoos is fun, my real passion…

My Perspective on Tattoo Pricing in Vancouver
When I moved to Vancouver and started tattooing here, I found the concept of hourly rates a bit unusual. It’s not just tattoo artists, plumbers, electricians, and basically anyone working in a trade often charges hourly. On one hand, I understand the logic behind it. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel; as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” However, I’m currently in a position where I don’t have to build my business from scratch…

The Road to Our Business License
A Rollercoaster of Challenges and Lessons We did it! We finally got our business license. Wohoo! But man, the road to this milestone wasn’t easy. As my first blog post, I want to share the journey with you, raw, real, and maybe a bit ridiculous. Migrating to Canada? Challenging. Migrating to Canada and opening a business at the same time? You’d have to be an idiot like me to try it. Looking back, I probably should’ve waited a bit longer……
