The Okie Dokie storefront on Main Street: a black cloud-shaped sign in white script above the window, and a hand-painted board on the sidewalk reading Okie Dokie Tattoo, Walk Ins Welcome.

Walk-ins welcome, every day

No appointment, no deposit, no waiting weeks for a slot. Come in with an idea and we’ll draw it up with you.

Or just turn up. Both work.

The work

Fourteen pieces off the wall

Everything here was done in the shop. Different hands, different styles, and that is the point: you shouldn’t have to pick a shop by whichever one style it happens to do.

What we do

Six styles, one shop

01

American traditional

Bold line, solid colour, built to still read in thirty years.

02

Black and grey

Smooth shading and stipple, from portraits to full panels.

03

Colour realism

Soft blends where the colour has to carry the whole piece.

04

Fine line

Small and precise, the kind that has to be right first time.

05

Geometric and dotwork

Mandalas, honeycomb and sacred-geometry sleeves.

06

New school

Cartoon shapes and loud colour, for the ones that should be fun.

The shop

Bright, clean and not remotely intimidating

One open room on Main Street: proper chairs, ring lights, a wall of framed flash and a mural you can see from the sidewalk. Reviewers keep using the same two words about it, clean and fun, and one of them called it “the environment and the vibe in the shop” before she mentioned her tattoo.

  • Free parking lot and free street parking
  • Wheelchair accessible entrance and parking
  • 694 Google reviews and still a straight 5.0
Inside the shop: a tattoo chair and ring lights under exposed ductwork, with a turquoise and pink mural along the back wall and an Okie Dokie Tattoo banner.

What people say

★★★★★

My best friend and I walked in to ask about matching tattoos. We were just going to get an appointment if we liked what we heard. He drew exactly what we were thinking. We are so happy with his work. Thank you so much for making this experience so fun.

The artist was professional, welcoming, and made the whole process comfortable from start to finish. The tattoo turned out exactly how I envisioned it, with clean lines and excellent attention to detail. Even though the appointment was quick, it never felt rushed.
