Aart Accent Tattoos & Piercings

Experiencia fantástica: Fast and friendly service. Tattoos turned out beautiful, Yoko was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Sad to see such a great shop closing, best of luck to all the staff as they move on!

Experiencia fantástica: NOLA holds a very special place in my heart and this trip decided to have it memorialized with a tattoo. I did my research before hand and decided that the oldest tattoo palour in New Orleans was going to be the place. Sadly they are closing as of September 5th, but I'm so glad I got in there and got tattooed by Franky Sharps.

Experiencia fantástica: such an amazing experience. awesome people and awesome work. in love with my tattoo. franky was so dope

Experiencia fantástica: Noooo don’t go I love this place you all did my tattoo and piercing as well as my daughters piercing I’m not finish… I use to pass this tattoo shop as a young girl always saying Im gonna go there and get my tattoo when I get big lol and I did just that❤️

Experiencia fantástica: I promised my kid a tattoo for a graduation present but when we were down here for a college visit we decided not to wait. I found this place on a Google search and we walked in. About an hour later, my offspring had ver first tattoo and couldn't be more pleased with it. Awesome folks all around!

Experiencia fantástica: The experience was AMAZING! Thank you, and I guest artist @glyphontattoos for the ink. Thank you Aart Accent for your presence and impact in the industry. It was a privilege to be among you.

Experiencia fantástica: Loved this place! We were greeted warmly and the people were very friendly! The guest artist, Shane, was amazing! We were in town for my daughter's 18th birthday and needed 3 small finger tattoos. He is a talented tattoo artist, as well as, charming, and a decent singing voice too! He is truly our favorite person in NOLA! My daughter also had 2 piercings done by Kate. She was thorough and patiently answered all of my daughter's questions. She was great. Thank you for memories of NOLA that we will always have!

Experiencia fantástica: I am a Charity Hospital baby living in Brooklyn and I only go to one place to get tatted: AArt Accent's!! Traveled back home to be done by Chopper Pete; fellow Punk kid, great artist, and just all around Groovy Dude! I got 5 in one day and my Boi wAs so professional, sweet, and understanding! Blessings to him, the other great artists, and MS. JACCI!!!!!! KEEP ON TRUCKIN', Y'ALL

Experiencia fantástica: I walked in after a lovely walking tour in Armstrong park. I spur of the moment decided to pierce my septum. My piercer was experienced and did the best job. It's healing like a dream. 10/10 would recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Absolute breeze. Soft hand with an excellent understanding of what we both wanted. Let him do his thing folks. Ali nailed it and Jon did his thang perfectly. Check them out.

Experiencia fantástica: Chopper got me in his books with short notice. And did a a wonderful job with my vodoo doll piece ..

Experiencia negativa: Didn’t get a chance to receive a tattoo… My friends and I were met with a very rude young blonde women at the door. She condescendingly explained the minimum charge without letting us in the door and when we decided to not come in she literally told us “sayonara”.. I’ve never experienced this type of service before not sure if the young women was having a bad day, but regardless there is a way to talk to people and that is not it. I don’t recommend anyone spend their money here…

Experiencia negativa: The tattoo artists barely crack opened the door and barely explained their minimum prices. Her attitude was dismissive and non informative. There were 5 of us and we weren’t even welcomed into the store. It’s unfortunate she is turning down business even if she was the owner. This was the only bad experience we have had in our week long New Orleans trip.

Experiencia fantástica: This is a fantastic tattoo shop! Got my second tattoo by Chopper. He is quick with the drawings efficient with the tattoo I was done in no time and came out with the wonderful tattoo! I love it

Experiencia fantástica: I went to get a tattoo last minute and it came out beautiful. Both Sean and Ms. Faye were a pleasure. I'll definitely be going back.

Experiencia fantástica: I got my first tattoo! They made us feel like family. I will be back for me and my daughter's piercings.

Experiencia positiva: I got a watercolor cypress tree that my artist, Cueves, free hand drew on my arm. I called to get an appointment for the following week and they got me in the same day, which was awesome! I really enjoyed meeting her and talking to her. It's a cash only business, but they do have an ATM on site that charges a small fee. They also threw in a free shirt, so that was a bonus. I've struggled getting ahold of them since to schedule more appointments, but that may be pandemic related? I'll keep trying.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is amazing. They've been a part of the city for years. The staff is inviting and easy to talk to about whatever you might want to get done. Stephanie did an amazing partial cover up and killed the lettering for me!

Experiencia fantástica: Sean is an talented artist and an equally awesome person. Good vibes from everyone I talked with that works there. Highly highly recommend this shop to anyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Stephanie is great, worked me in on short notice for a little souvenir ink while I was in town on vacation— fast work, customized a basic image to fit my request, sharp clean lines, and fun conversation to boot.

Experiencia fantástica: This place has had a home in my heart for over 15 years. My original piecer BooBi has left for ATL years ago however I still send friends and those alike here for piercing / tattoos. My only red flag, is this place doesn’t feel / look as clean as it should especially during COVID. The piercing jewelry options all look / are cheap. But if it’s trying to maintain the original tattoo shop it’s definitely nailing it. On street parking. Tattoo area, Handicap accessible. Cash only. ATM on site

Experiencia fantástica: This is my 3rd tattoo from Aart Accent and now I'm looking forward to my next one!! Allie assisted me and she was so professional and she wanted to give me a tattoo I'd be pleased with, she did just that. The artist was so laid back and easy to talk to and that made me feel comfortable and confident with my choice to get my tattoo done. The price was great, perfect location, and great music, i'll be back soon. Also, the other staff members were so friendly and cool I just can't say thank you enough for this entire experience!!

Experiencia fantástica: My first experience was memorable. I wanted to step on the wild side for my bday! Got my first piercing! A night to remember great customer service. Place was very clean, Covid protocol was being followed. I was a bit nervous they were so patient with me. Awesome experience!! Definitely will be back when I find courage for a tattoo! Just so the owner remember me she gave me a nick name...Bling girl Awesome Team!!

Experiencia negativa: I called ahead to check pricing. I wanted to be pierced for my New Orleans souvenir. Pricing seemed okay. Paid $15 for a Lyft from my hotel to the shop only to be greeted with a sign that says $100 minimum and cash only. Sorry, but not sorry…no. Who carries cash these days let alone that amount of cash. In NOLA? I guess they only cater to locals because I know most tourists - like me - go cash free.

Experiencia negativa: I’m not going to speak to the quality of their work, because I truthfully don’t know, but as to their phone etiquette, simply put, rude as can be. When you keep questioning what kind of tattoo I want and make it seem like it’s impossible or ridiculous, then you’re probably too commercialized to understand that some people have their *own* ideas for what they want for *their* body. I chose not to go with them because I don’t have time to be mocked on the phone. I do have time to write a review and let people know what kind of staff they have.

Experiencia fantástica: Came here for a tattoo & got an entire experience Please be respectful when stopping by Allie is amazing I can't recommend enough!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely love this place. They're so friendly and the energy is great. My artist was awesome I can't wait to go back for more work.

Experiencia fantástica: Got an anniversary tattoo from J here during our 1st trip to New Orleans and it was awesome. The whole staff was amazing and fun. The line work on our tats is AMAZING best work my hubby and I have ever had done. I wish they were in KC.

Experiencia fantástica: They were nice. But a little disappointed that they were booked up even though the website said they accepted walk ins. And to a extent the did. But for piercings. My advice (for anywhere in New Orleans) call ahead and set up an appointment. Even if you’re only inquiring. The person I was with got a nose piercing and she loves it. She got the second side done and said they were fantastic.

Experiencia fantástica: Me and my fiancée got tattoos to commemorate our engagement. Allie was super awesome she was great. With everything from the tattoo to the conversation to educating us on why this parlor is important to the tattoo community. Super honored that we got inked here, could not recommend her and AArt enough!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing experience Chopper Pete. I.love it he makes you feel right at home. I will be back from Atlanta Ga

Experiencia fantástica: My friend and I got pierced by Collin last night and we’re both so happy with what we got. He was so cool and fun to talk to, he cleaned us up good and gave us some sick jewelry, he definitely made the experience more memorable and for that I’m a lot happier with my piercing than I would be otherwise. Absolutely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough about how awesome this place was. I, my daughter, and my husband all got tattoos, and my daughter also got a piercing. Erica Wedge took care of the tats and they are beautiful! Clean lines, perfect shading, and she was super professional and made it a great experience for all three of us. Colin took care of my daughter's piercing and she absolutely loves it! The energy was great, very professional, but still laidback. 10 out of 10, would absolutely recommend Aart Accent to anyone going to NOLA and wanting a tattoo or a piercing.

Experiencia fantástica: My piercings are so nice, didn't get infected, no rejection and is healing just right with the product recommended. !

Experiencia fantástica: Just got my very first tattoo... And I love it I will be going back... Thanks Allie for a wonderful experience

Experiencia fantástica: This place was amazing! Everyone is so friendly. I had Erica do a my little pony and its my favorite tattoo I have gotten so far. She did a phenomenal job! Her line work is so clean!

Experiencia fantástica: Chopper was very well educated on the topic of tattoos. I could not have more pleased with my experience. He answerer every question I had, and much more. I left feeling well informed on tattoo care and the science behind tattoos. He took what I wanted for my first tattoo, and drew something far better than I had imagined.

Experiencia fantástica: I got my bridge (area in-between nose and eyes) pierced by Colin and it was done perfectly! Symmetrical, sanitary, painless, professional, and the best price for piercings that I could find in all of the New Orleans area. Colin was very nice, respectful, and overall it was just a very pleasant experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Colin is the best! He pierced me and two of my other friends and he made us feel so comfortable. We chatted the entire time and it was a great experience overall. I also love my piercing!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a bad septum piercing done on me at another shop. I had to get it taken out immediately and luckily they were able to take me in last minute. The guy who took it out was Grouch, who despite the name was actually very friendly! He got it out quickly and with no discomfort, and was kind enough to offer me another ring to replace the messed up one. If I were to get a tattoo or a piercing, it would definitely be from him!

Experiencia fantástica: Great shop !! Thank you Chopper Pete for my amazing tattoo !!!

Experiencia fantástica: This shop is Amazing!! Recommend ‼ We made our visit a family affair and had a wonderful experience! Very friendly atmosphere! Our artist was Droopy, #droopydawg #tattosbydroopy #sharpiearttattos @droopydawg74, and he is all the way!! Highly recommend this shop and artist!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Has great atmosphere and sweet people i got my tattoo from tuba she is a wonderful artist and easy to talk to and a fun experience and she did a wonderful job on my tattoo and made sure it was something to be proud off i will be coming back only shop I will ever go to in new orleans

Experiencia fantástica: Super talented artists at this shop. They will check temperatures at the door and provide hand sanitizer. They also require masks. Cash only. Because they're so busy, and justifiably so, you'll want to call ahead to schedule a consultation.

Experiencia fantástica: Me and my girlfriend went and got our helixes done, she also had her ear lobes pierced. We had the piercers Jordan and Colin. They were both so nice and welcoming, we instantly felt comfortable around them and loved their senses of humor. I super highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: Leo was amazing me and my sister both got a tattoo by him and we love it. We will be back to see him

Experiencia fantástica: Loved the energy of the artists. Erica was amazing and fast, and made my tat better than I had imagined!

Experiencia negativa: Went to get a very important piece done, the "artist" completely ruined my wrist. Now I have to get an even biggertattoo to cover it up. This was an extremely sentimental and important tattoo for me, and my first. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome artists!!! If you love tattoos n want to be apart of art history you hav to come see Ms.Jacci the first black female tattooist in the country

Experiencia fantástica: Tattoo healed great! Chopper was super! Came in didn't know exactly what to add. Say than, worked together and created a masterpiece! Got to meet Ms Jackie too!

Experiencia fantástica: My mom, sister and I came here for celebrating my belated birthday and we decided to get a matching tattoo. Chopper was so patient since we were taking a while to get the design just right. It was mine and my mom's first tattoo ever so it was a great experience with Chopper.

Experiencia fantástica: Ericas work, nailed it!!! Everyone in the shop was very nice and helpful. Highly recommend coming here for tattoos for whoever is interested. Super fast. I would go back again for sure.

Experiencia fantástica: Affordable piercing studio, with clean and professional service. Would recommend if you are getting a piercing in New Orleans.

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely amazing service! They get you done quick if you can sit through a whole tatoo. Amazing staff with awsome skill! Great history aswell! Allie Cat did this awsome work! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Allie is the best! My sister and I stopped in for a tat for her birthday! Her lines are so SHARP! She is very passionate about her work. My sis got a cover-up and a new tat. The cover was so amazing!!! I got 2 also. Allie was clean and hygienic about everything. We were told about the credit card vs cash payment which was NOT a problem. It's not Walmart! LOL! Businesses pass those fees on to customers with their prices. The shop doesn't want to. At least they tell you. At least the ATM is in the shop. Definitely will come back when we're in town again!

Experiencia fantástica: Allie was my 16 year old daughter's tattoo artist and she was amazing, not just her art but her manner and personality. I couldn't have asked for a better person for my daughter's 1st tatoo.

Experiencia negativa: During my visit we encountered a very rude and unpleasant tattoo artist. This artist was not providing my service however he felt the need to argue with my group as we where preparing to receive our piercings. This exchanging of words escalated. The "artist" followed members of my group out of the shop and continued harassing them while he was supposed to be leaving for the evening. I hope the owners take time to read these posts.

Experiencia fantástica: Roc was the best. Everyone there was cool, chill place really helped me figure out my design. 7/7 would recommend. If you're going to get a tattoo in New Orleans. This is the place.

Experiencia fantástica: Went to take my daughter to get her nose piercing to this place that was recommended by a guy who was the host of the place we stayed as we visited NOLA . So I loved the customer service, the cleanliness and the hospitality. I had no plans in get mine done and did it was smooth, quick and easy less than 3 mins.. Excellent $$.!!! Thanks Grouch

Experiencia positiva: The actual piercing was great.... when it was time for me to pay, I was told that they didn't accept credit cards. I see the Visa/MC logo in the door. I was then told that they do normally accept cards but their machine was broken. This should have been mentioned upfront... what if the person I was with didn't have cash

Experiencia fantástica: My brother and I went as walk-ins around 10:30 Saturday evening. Everyone we met, and dealt with from the shop owners to our artists Tag and Roc, was friendly. The pricing is fair and the work was beautifully done. This is the oldest tattoo shop in Louisiana and the experience shows. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great experience!!! My wife and I were on vacation from So. Cal. and just walked in. They took us right in and we both got our souvenir tatts!!! She got a black key and I got this!!!!

Experiencia negativa: Not happy with my tattoo. The lines are uneven, sloppy and don’t even connect in some places. They have signs posted saying there is a 5% fee for credit card payments, but they insisted I pay with cash. They have an ATM in the lobby, but of course there’s a fee for that too. Weird and unprofessional. I do have to say that the place was cute in an eclectic way and seemed clean. The tattoo artist was hygienic as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Tag is an amazing artist! Very professional and did my tattoo on a walk in. It turned out perfect ❤️

Experiencia fantástica: Stopped in for birthday tattoos. My friend drew a quick picture and the artist took it and made it perfect. He gets so many compliments on his tattoo. I highly recommend this place

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone there was amazing. Alliecat did my work although it's small she was awesome. I will definitely be back to get more work done!

Experiencia fantástica: While everyone here is super friendly, Jessi is da bomb! We came in a little nervous for our first tattoo but she made us so comfortable. I had sent her a few pictures from the internet for some ideas and she came up with something totally awesome. She took her time to get all the details right and you can see how passionate she is about tattooing. If I ever decide to get another tattoo, I'm coming back here!!! Thank you Jessi, Jacci, Faye and all the wonderful people here at Aart Accent.

Experiencia negativa: I caught staph infection from there ,, please go somewhere else and they are very expensive,, keep your money, they will tell you that you have a lifetime warranty to repair your tats but then say you should have been come back when it’s a lifetime thing,,,, do not waste your money or time,, you will regret it

Experiencia fantástica: My experience was A+!.Roc did my tattoo that i wanted in memory of my son. He did a fantastic job. My niece and nephew was with me. One got a piercing and the other got a tattoo. Both was very pleased. I would recommend Roc. Thank you Roc and Grouch for such a great time.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome shop! Damien does a fantastic job. Not only is the tattoo incredible, but he was so personable. Truly a great experience!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband and I could not be more pleased with our tattoos! The artists are so talented and NICE! We went with a couple friends and spent the afternoon there. We spoke with a couple of the artists and we really had a genuinely great time! Thank you Chopper and Damien for your professional work and awesome character. We will most certainly be back!!

Experiencia fantástica: Andy was amazing. From the moment I met him to my finished product (tattoo) he was friendly and accommodating. Played great music while I lay there for 3 hours and I could not be happier. The best and highly recommended

Experiencia fantástica: Jessi is incredible! She took the hard sketch my daughter made and turned it into exactly what I had envisioned. My tattoo turned out great and I had an awesome time talking with her while she worked. Her spirit and personality made the whole sitting go by in the blink of an eye.

Experiencia fantástica: I definitely enjoyed my experience with Chopper! I loved how he incorporated my first Mardi Gras experience into my piece

Experiencia fantástica: Great shop! We got two tattoos with lettering that the artist hand drew, and changed to our liking.

Experiencia fantástica: This was my first tattoo ever, but Steven made it amazingly easy and it looked really great afterwards.

Experiencia fantástica: Me, my sister and my brother came to visit New Orleans. My brother and I wanted matching tattoos, so we went to this shop. Steven did an awesome job. We could tell he loves doing his job, and I well definitely recommend him. I'm very happy with our outcome. Thanks Steven!!!

Experiencia fantástica: On vacation, my Mom and I went to this establishment and were greeted by smiling faces. They were easily accommodatable for what we were looking for and was able to fit us in. Would highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Very clean and professional. The artist we booked with is a pro at minimalistic pieces which is what me and my 2 friends wanted while we were on vacation. His Instagram is @chopperpetetattoo. He worked with on us on drawing something specific for each of us which required patience. Great experience!!

Experiencia fantástica: So, My wife and I were down in New Orleans for my birthday and I'd decided that for my birthday I would get myself a new tattoo and low and behold this establishment was opposite our hotel (would you believe). After reading a few Google reviews, I knew that THIS was the place! On walking in we met Chopper Pete, who was without doubt one of the most professional, straight up likeable dudes I've ever met.. And he also did a killer tattoo on me AND reworked an old too!! The next day my wife was (who had a tattoo booked) was let down and Pete came to the rescue and did the most beautiful custom design of a lotus flower. Soooo big thanks to Chopper Pete and all the staff, you guys rock!

Experiencia fantástica: The tattoo is hand drawn, beautiful and unique! All of the employees here are really friendly and fun to talk to. Fast service, clean and professional. Highly recommend Tag his work is amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place! Steve was great! Quick and the tattoo came out better than I ever imagined. Employees and owner are sweet. I give it 12/10

Experiencia negativa: When we walked in and asked if there was any availability for a small tattoo for 2 people we were told yes it would be a 10 minute wait. We ended up waiting for 2 hours for the artist to actually be ready by that point it was 2 am and we were tired and had a flight to catch in a couple hours so we changed our minds and wanted to leave. Jesi (the artist) proceeded to harass my friend via text about how rude it was to back out and because she “works on commission and has a son to support” she made us feel bad for not being comfortable and not being ready for a permanent tattoo even though it took her hours to do 2 drawings. I have multiple tattoos and I’ve never been treated like this before. You should always be able to say no at anytime.

Experiencia fantástica: I was very skeptical of the tattoo experience previously, but the artists here made us feel comfortable and informed about the process.

Experiencia fantástica: Steven was amazing, got a tatt that took 5 and a half hours and not only was his art work amazing but his "bed side" manner was the best I've ever seen from any tattoo artist.

Experiencia fantástica: Tag! Amazing artist and visionary. I wanted a magnolia flower to add to my collection of tattoos. He found a beautiful magnolia just for me. Went through an extensive process of finding the perfect colors to incorporate into this piece of art. I . Love. It.the people here are so meticulous and patient. I will forever cherish this night! Happiness is the world you create for yourself

Experiencia fantástica: Jessi did the best tattoo I've gotten! Definitely coming back for a sleeve or back piece

Experiencia fantástica: Where do I begin.. STEVEN.. one of the most important things I look for when getting ink is to have my artist be in love with my idea as much as I am. Steven not only showed professionalism but compassion like no other. He took my chair time to the next level, knowing how important it meant to me. Hand work is light as a feather, attention to detail can't be matched by any other, I'm beyond pleased with his work, I WILL return for more..

Experiencia fantástica: Found this shop last minute AlleyCat drew up want we wanted in mins. Supper friendly, & professional. Highly recommend prices are great $300 for 2 one of a kind voodoo doll tattoos.

Experiencia fantástica: Got us in as walk in. Super friendly people. Price was expected. Fast friendly and work is on point. 10/10 would recommend

Experiencia positiva: He was super efficient and confident. One of the most painless and quick piercings I've ever had. He didn't ask if I approved of the location, though, and afterwards I feel like the piercings aren't tilted as I would have liked on my nipples. One is certainly more vertical than the other. Other than that, though, I was super pleased. Would just recommend checking the dots before the needle happens!

Experiencia fantástica: Came here to get an easy freindship tattoo and met such a soul, Jenni was the best. Had a long conversation with her and she recommended places to grub out at. Thanks again jenni.

Experiencia negativa: Way over priced. Tourist trap. The guy who did my stencil was a good dude and was working with me. He asked me my budget I told him no more than$200. The woman set the price at $275, for what I calculated would have been about a 45 min piece. Then asked for $200 deposit. When I asked to make an appointment for the next day, they didn't want to make one, they rather me just walk in. Not interested.

Experiencia fantástica: Great group of people. Great artists, customer service, awesome experience. Faye will be sure you do not leave disappointed!

Experiencia fantástica: After having a horrible experience with another tattoo shop in NOLA we had been trying for weeks to set up an appointment with before finally managing to get one (which was then canceled upon us showing up to said appointment), we found Aart Accent Tattoo. They were amazing, professional and willing to create 3 individual fun little voodoo doll tattoos for us on the spot and complete all 3 tattoos on a Monday night. Steve is an amazing artist who went above and beyond to turn our ideas into reality, salvaging the final ending to our NOLA trip in the process. Go here if you're looking for skilled artists and a considerate and professional atmosphere. 10/10 will go back again on my next visit to New Orleans!

Experiencia fantástica: After a big let down by another shop, we came here and so glad we did. Great atmosphere, people, and reasonable pricing. We got what we wanted and it turned out even better than we expected. Very clean and professional.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place and awesome people, tattoos are great quality and were quick. My friend and I went in and were out in an hour and a half with superb quality tattoos that were at least 4 inches. Ask for Steven and Tag

Experiencia fantástica: My Fiance and I came in after a trip down Bourbon last minute wanting a tattoo. We ended up walking into this place 1 hour before close and had people ready to take care of us regardless of what it was we wanted done. I truly appreciate the service Steven and Tag. Thanks for inking us up.

Experiencia fantástica: Chopper is amazing! Such a talented, creative, patient, kind, friendly and professional artist. I provided a general idea for a cover up and he created a masterpiece! If you are ever in NOLA give him a call, it will be a fantastic experience! He even kept my husband entertained with conversation the entire 3 hour session. Thanks man, we appreciate all you did for us today!

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter, her friend, and I all walked in to get some tattoos while on vacation. I was nervous about going to a place that allows walk-ins and straying from my usual artist, but felt relieved once inside and greeted by Scott. Everyone there was extremely friendly and had us laughing from the moment we walked in. My daughter’s friend had a VERY tight budget with a very specific request for her first tattoo and Steven offered to take care of her so she wouldn’t have to compromise and get something different. He also did an amazing job on a dainty chrysanthemum on my daughters ankle. Tag drew up a design of a rooster that FAR surpassed what I had in mind and even incorporated wrought iron and a fleur de lis into the design to make it more special. We were in and out in 2.5 hours. I’m extremely happy I chose to go here and will continue to do so every time I visit New Orleans.
