Tattoo artists at The Shop in Fowlerville specialize in custom tattoos and/or portrait tattoos. So, you will not feel overwhelmed by racks of flash designs when you walk in the door. It’s comfortable and inviting. We have elaborate portfolios of our own custom tattoo flash and photorealistic drawings for you to choose from.
Our art is created by the tattoo artists on staff.
Our tattoo artists each have their own preferred styles that are highly developed and include custom designs ranging from traditional and neotraditional tattoo designs to folk art tattoo designs.
We’ll create custom designs for your tattoos and then retire those custom tattoo designs, guaranteeing your tattoo is uniquely yours.
The Shop in Fowlerville is owned by a Service-Disabled Veteran.
Shop artists conduct themselves with a basic level civility because our shop consists of six different businesses (individual artists own their own businesses) all in one shared space. We expect the same from our clients.
Some people think it’s OK to make sexist remarks against men, since we live in a patriarchy. We disagree. We think all genders are capable of getting along. Some people think it’s OK to make fun of our neighbors in The Ville because they have tractors and are farmers. We disagree. The owner has a tractor and a farm. Some people think it’s OK to meanly make fun of gay, transgender or neurodiverse people. We disagree. We have transgender family members, friends and clients. Most artists renting space here (and probably most of our current clients) are either neurodiverse or members of the LGBTQIA community. We also tattoo police officers and veterans – a lot.
So in the next chair over from you while you are getting tattooed, there could be a disabled veteran, a Christian, a Jewish person, an atheist, a Muslim, a farmer, a transwoman, a lesbian, a person with ADHD, FASD or autism… I could go on, but you get it. If you’ve got judgmental or hateful thoughts in your head, keep them there while in our shop. Obviously, we need all our clients not to make our other clients feel hated while they’re getting tattooed.
We will continuously try to make our shop feel safe and welcoming for any clients who are willing to do the same for others. But don’t come in and be an asshole and expect that the customer is always right.
Also, we welcome trained service animals and we know that we’re not supposed to pet them. We can offer socializing-free appointments and are just fine with people who need to bring headphones in order to block out noise. We are willing to adjust the music for your comfort. We are willing to offer you breaks as needed. You can bring a hand holder if you want to. Our procedure area is an open floor plan and there are cameras put up for everyone’s, including our artists’, safety.
It doesn’t matter if you’re Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Socialist or of some other political affiliation. We believe most people are capable of getting along peacefully long enough for a full all-day tattoo session. But if you can not do that, please find another shop. We fall all over the political spectrum here and so do our clients, and we will not maintain a business relationship with rude clients.
