11 of Bordeaux's Top Tattoo Artists
Bordeaux is known for its neoclassical beauty but there are many other ways to explore and reveal the city’s beauty. Culture Trip introduces you to the 11 top tattoo artists you should go to to get a tattoo during your stay. It’s time to get inked!
1. Maud Dardeau Tatouages
Maud Dardeau was initially a painter and an illustrator and after seven years, becoming a tattoo artist seemed to be a natural path to follow. She perfected her skills with Tin-Tin, an emblematic tattoo artist, developed her tattooing style, and is now well-known known for her impeccable engraving. In her work, you can see the influence of printmaker artists such as Gustave Doré and Albrecht Dürer. If you’d like to benefit from Maud’s mastery, you will have to wait a bit, as her agenda is booked until June 2018.
2. Sylvain Atelier Privé
Sylvain and Max’s ability to understand their customers and perfectly translate what they have in mind is what makes them one of the most popular tattoo artists in Bordeaux. All praise their formidable active listening, warm demeanor, and execution mastery. If you want a work of art on your skin, schedule an appointment right now.
3. Tetrodon Tattoo
Before settling in Bordeaux, Toni Lou, the genius artist working at Tetrodon Tattoo, has been traveling all over the world in order to master her craft. She has a preference for neo-traditional tattoos and her themes of predilection are animals, pin-ups, lettering, and realism. The studio regularly hosts guest artists and you can see some of their creations on the studio’s Instagram account: @tetrodontattoo.
5. Le Nouveau Labo
Le Nouveau Labo is another top-notch tattoo studio in Bordeaux. Rachel, Lionel, and Petit Jean will work their magic on you and grace your skin with incredible graphic, dot work, machine, or handpoke designs. If Le Nouveau Labo’s specialty is more oriented toward blackwork, you still can ask guidance if you want color work.
6. Bodyfikation
Getting a tattoo can be a nerve-wracking experience if poorly done, so it’s important the artist working with you makes you feel at ease, especially if it’s your first time. The laid-back atmosphere and very precise work of Peter Morgan, Groseb, and La Gueuse, the talented artists of Bodyfikation are exactly what you need if you’re feeling nervous about getting a tattoo. They will guide you and turn your idea into the masterpiece you had in mind.
7. Feeling Tattoo Piercing
Whether you want a ladybug or a gigantic dragon in your back, you will find the right person in the Feeling Tattoo Piercing salon to grant your wish. Each member of the team has a specialty and will take the time to sit with you and discuss your options. Stéphane‘s style is more oriented toward traditional tattoos whereas Sam‘s is more influenced by the Newschool and cartoon genres and Oriane will do great footwork and whip tattoos for you. You could also get a piercing while you’re there by Romain, the in-house specialist.
