Tattoo shops in Ajax
Ajax, ON has 85 tattoo shops on the map. All 85 are mapped as tattoo studios proper, and each one is worth a portfolio browse before you commit — style varies more between shops than towns. Walk-ins are worth asking about, but the good custom work everywhere books weeks out.
This guide covers every tattoo shop we could verify in and around Ajax (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include Chosen Ink Tattoo Studio and See Ya Studio, plus Yes Electric Tattoo. If a studio's missing from Ajax's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet — the scene is bigger than any single dataset.

1 of the studios are also tagged for piercings, handy if you're after both in one visit.

Tattoo tips for Ajax
First tattoo or fiftieth — the rules don't change in Ajax:
- Be honest about your pain tolerance at Chosen Ink Tattoo Studio. Ribs, feet and inner arms hurt more. A good artist will tell you straight and plan breaks.
- Tip your artist at See Ya Studio. Standard practice, like any skilled service. Twenty percent is the usual benchmark for good work.
- Browse portfolios before anything else. A studio's Instagram or website tells you more than any review. If nobody there does the style you want, keep looking.
- Aftercare is half the tattoo. Follow the artist's instructions, not your friend's. Keep it clean, keep it moisturised, keep it out of the sun.
Good to know
We searched about 40 km around Ajax — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new tattoo shop in Ajax can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 85 that's closed, or a great tattoo shop we missed, the fix is to update the map itself — that's where this guide reads from.
We don't rate studios or artists, and we never list prices — those are between you and the shop. What we list is the where and the how-to-find, from places real mappers have verified.
If you run one of the 85 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
Tattoo shop listings for Ajax: 85 mapped from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Photos from Wikimedia Commons contributors; individual photo credits appear in captions. Listing data was last refreshed automatically — verify hours before visiting.
