Body art is truly a way of expressing your individualism. Who you are and what you stand for. And, of course, we have different preferences. The size of the tattoos varies. The first-time visitor is often satisfied with a small tattoo on the upper arm, while others choose to tattoo large motifs that cover the entire back. The motives also vary greatly, and the trends change all the time. New technologies and modern equipment also create opportunities to make even more magnificent motifs. Only imagination sets the limits.
If you need inspiration for the next tat, you should not miss the famous tattoo convention Stockholm Ink Bash, which has been arranged in August every year Since 1996. Hundreds of award-winning tattoo artists from all over the world gather here, and you have the chance to experience world-class tattoo art.

Find the right artist for your next tattoo in Stockholm
Since your tattoo will be a companion for the rest of your life, a great result is important. You need to choose the right motif, do it for the right reason, and above all, have it done by the right artist at a good and serious tattoo shop. Then your motif or text will be exactly as you intended.
So, where can you get a tattoo in Stockholm? The fact that it is so popular to decorate the body has led to a city full of skilled designers and artists. Södermalm, Old Town, Kungsholmen, Vasastan – no matter what district you’re in, you can find a tattoo studio that can give you precisely the motif you want. (And should you regret old mistakes, many places offer tattoo removal.)
To help you find the right one in the large selection, we’ve put together a guide to Stockholm’s best tattoo artists. A tip on the way is to visit and talk to the artist once before it’s time for the tattoo. Then you can see if the atmosphere and the tattoo artist feel right. It’s also a good idea to compare prices on tattoos between different shops before you pick one – even though the quality should always be number one. And keep in mind that you must be at least 18 years old to get a tattoo.

Salong Betong
Salong Betong is one of Sweden’s most talked-about tattoo studios, a big reason being the documentary series about the founders, ‘Danne & Bleckan’, which was broadcasted on television. This is also a pretty celebrity-crowded place; both artists and actors have found their way here over the years. In addition, Salong Betong has been allowed to design Reebok shoes, listed as one of Sweden’s most powerful in men’s fashion, and participated in several charity projects.
