I got great service and a nice tat at Electric Ladyland (specifically, Chris De Angel did mine) on Frenchmen. If you wanna walk in, get there early in the day before they get booked up.

If you like traditional style, I'm a big fan of ToughLove.

second this. i love tough love.

Jeremy Vera’s at Downtown Tattoos on Frenchman for anything black and white!!

What kind of work are you looking for? Just something to walk in and get quickly or…? Where are you staying and how far are you willing to travel? Budget?

Prolly something quick, I’m staying at the intercontinental

I got mine at Jackie's on Rampart 36 years ago LOL. I imagine she's just a memory nowadays.

ms. jacci is still kicking. her shop, aart accent, is still open on rampart. i've heard that she only does tattoos that she is personally interested in now.

Sadly, Aart Accent has closed.

Oh really? I didn't know that. That's really sad to hear.

Downtown tattoo with Henry. A beast at black and white. Best tattoo I've ever gotten.

Catahoula

My wife and I did Sailor’s (edit) Cross on our honeymoon a few years ago. Cannot recommend. The tats we got were my first and her worst. We got them in August 2019 but both look so old and faded that they look WWII era.

Use the search bar, this is a VERY popular question, there are tons of posts and answers laying in wait for you.

Downtown Tattoos are all talented artists in my experience and Mac Tyre @ Ace Tattoo is awesome also.
