Duck Duck Tattoo Studio

Duck Duck Tattoo Studio is a queer owned and operated tattoo shop in the artsy Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The studio is built around creating a safe and welcoming environment for clients who often don't find one elsewhere, with a particular focus on serving LGBTQIA+, women, POC, and neurodivergent folks. Visitors are greeted with soft music, a clean space, and friendly artists dedicated to easing the nerves that can come with getting tattooed, taking time to listen throughout the entire process. The shop has been recognized locally, having been voted Best Tattoo Shop by Pittsburgh Magazine and named among the top tattoo shops in Pittsburgh by Pittsburgh City Paper.

The overall vibe is relaxed, peaceful, quiet, and clean, reflecting the studio's intent to make every client feel comfortable while they get the tattoo of their dreams. Artists work primarily by appointment, with frequent walk-in requests also accommodated. Beyond day-to-day custom tattooing, Duck Duck Tattoo Studio hosts flash events and collaborations with the local community, including partnerships with other queer-owned small businesses in Pittsburgh. As a small studio rooted in the Lawrenceville area, it continues to grow its team of resident artists while maintaining its core mission of inclusive, client-first care.
