The Ink Lab has been creating custom tattoos in the Uptown neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota, since 1995, making it one of the city's longest-running tattoo studios. Founded by David Dettloff, the shop has been recognized multiple times by City Pages and other Twin Cities publications as one of the best in Minnesota. The studio offers original custom tattoo work by appointment, along with flash designs and walk-ins as time allows, keeping the process simple and straightforward for clients who reach out directly to their artist of choice.
Artists at this Minneapolis studio work across a broad range of styles, including black and grey realism, color realism, vivid color and watercolor tattoos, portraits, and fine detail work. They also create botanical and nature-inspired pieces alongside illustrative, sci-fi, horror, and fantasy designs, giving clients plenty of options to find an artist suited to their vision. Beyond tattooing, the studio provides professional body piercing with an expert piercer, a sterile process, and a wide selection of high-quality jewelry to accommodate a variety of piercing needs, scheduled by phone.
