Original by Design

A great tattoo should feel like it belongs to the person wearing it.

At Lucky Stars Tattoo, custom designs are developed around your ideas, reference material, placement and individual style. The goal isn’t to reproduce generic designs that have been seen countless times before, but to create something with its own identity.

Every piece is approached with close attention to detail, professionalism and craftsmanship, from the first consultation through to the finished tattoo.
