Tattoo Services
Custom Tattoos
Every tattoo begins with a conversation. Whether you bring an image, a sketch, or just an idea, our artists collaborate with you to refine the concept and design a piece that fits your body’s shape and your story.
We’ll help you decide on size, style, and placement to make sure your tattoo complements your features and ages gracefully. You can book ahead for large projects or walk in for smaller designs—our artists handle both with the same level of care.
Traditional Tattoos
Bold lines, strong colors, and classic imagery define our traditional tattoos. From nautical designs to pin-ups and Americana symbols, we honor the legacy of tattoo culture while giving each piece a modern touch.
Traditional tattoos are timeless, and our artists ensure the lines are crisp, the colors stay vibrant, and the design holds up for decades.
Fine Line Tattoos
If you prefer clean, delicate detail, our fine line tattoos are designed with precision and subtlety. Using a single needle or small configurations, these tattoos are ideal for names, symbols, minimalist designs, and detailed outlines.
Our artists guide clients on size and placement to ensure fine line tattoos remain clear and legible over time.
Black & Grey Tattoos
Our black and grey tattoos use a blend of shading, gradient, and contrast to create depth and realism. From portraits to religious art to natural imagery, these tattoos carry sophistication and timelessness.
We carefully blend tones for smooth transitions and clear visibility. Every black and grey tattoo is customized to your skin tone and aesthetic preference.
Color Tattoos
If you want your tattoo to stand out, our artists specialize in vibrant color work. Using top-quality pigments, we create designs that pop while maintaining balance and flow.
From full sleeves to colorful micro tattoos, our color tattoos are saturated evenly to ensure long-lasting brightness with proper aftercare.
Minimalist and Micro Tattoos
For subtle, refined body art, our minimalist and micro tattoos are small in scale but big in meaning. These tattoos are perfect for first-timers, professionals who prefer discreet pieces, or anyone who appreciates simplicity.
Our artists use fine needles and gentle techniques to achieve precise results that heal cleanly and retain sharp detail.
Cover-Ups and Reworks
If you have an older tattoo that needs updating or covering, we can help. Our artists analyze your existing piece and develop a strategy to transform it into something you love. We’ll be honest about what’s possible and suggest designs that will achieve full coverage and balance.
Why Choose Professional Tattoo and Piercing Services
Getting a tattoo or piercing is more than a style choice—it’s a personal statement. Choosing a professional studio ensures not only the quality of the design but also your health and safety. At i45ink & Piercings, we follow state-approved sterilization protocols and use single-use, disposable equipment for every client.
Our experienced team takes time to understand your goals, explain placement options, and walk you through aftercare so you can heal properly and maintain your new art. We don’t rush appointments or cut corners, and we only use high-quality inks, needles, and jewelry.
Clients trust us because we combine over 20 years of experience with a genuine passion for helping people express themselves through body art.
Piercing and Body Modification Services
Ear Piercing
From lobe to cartilage, our ear piercing services use sterile, single-use needles and high-quality jewelry. Placement and symmetry are always double-checked before piercing.
Nose, Lip, and Facial Piercings
We perform nostril, septum, and lip piercings with careful measurement and precision. Facial piercings are performed with attention to balance and facial structure for the best look and healing outcome.
Body Piercings
We offer body piercings including navel, nipple, and dermals. Each service includes a full explanation of the process, aftercare, and healing timelines.
Dermals
Dermals are unique surface piercings that sit flat on the skin, creating a striking visual effect. Our piercer, Eddie, specializes in dermals, ensuring clean placement and symmetry.
Body Modifications
We also provide select body modification services performed by experienced professionals using sterile technique and proper tools. Clients interested in modifications can schedule a consultation to discuss placement, healing, and maintenance.

- Single-use, pre-packaged needles
- Disposable gloves and barriers
- Sterilized tools and workstations
- Medical-grade disinfectants between clients
Before each appointment, clients are briefed on what to expect. After each service, we provide detailed aftercare instructions and answer all follow-up questions to ensure proper healing.
