What the map tells us about tattoo shops in Blackburn
26 of the 148 list their opening hours on the map, which is genuinely useful — tattoo studios often work by appointment, so posted hours can be more of a guideline than a promise.
24 have websites listed. Studios with websites usually show portfolios there — the fastest way to tell if a shop's style matches yours.
2 of the studios are also tagged for piercings, handy if you're after both in one visit.
The Blackburn tattoo shop tour
Plot these on a map and the day plans itself: 72 Tattoo, Tattitude Tattoo & Body Piercing, Beauty By Sue on 74 Portland Street, Inky's on 30 Water Street, Tattoo Parlour on Shakespeare Street, Inkarma on 123 Eastbank Street, Phil's Tattoo Studio on 5 Princes Street, and Body Mech on 19 Princes Street. That's 148 stops on the Blackburn tattoo shop tour. 140 more are listed below.
Tattoo tips for Blackburn
Picking a studio in Blackburn? A little homework pays off:
- Book a consultation first at 72 Tattoo. Most good shops offer free consults. You get to meet the artist, talk placement and price, and see how clean the place is.
- Wear the right clothes at Tattitude Tattoo & Body Piercing. Easy access to the spot being tattooed, and nothing you love — ink stains don't wash out.
- Small first tattoos are smart. Your first session teaches you how your skin takes ink and how you handle the pain. Start modest.
- Trust the artist's placement advice. They've seen thousands of bodies. If they say the design won't age well there, listen.
Good to know
We searched about 40 km around Blackburn — 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 Blackburn can take a while to appear. The 148 above are only as current as the community map. A tattoo shop that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.
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 148 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.
