Incredible experience with kitty at electric lady lounge. I was Dreaming about this tattoo and Kitty made my vision come to life. This date is close to my heart and that was taken sensitively as well. My husband was also allowed to photograph the entire time!! Kitty made both of us feel super safe and welcome in this shop! 10/10 would recommend.
Electric Lady Lounge is by far the best tattoo shop I have ever been too, the environment is comfortable and welcoming.I have been tattooed by nearly everyone at the shop and they are all so incredibly talented and nice!I would genuinely recommend coming here, it’s a great atmosphere and everyone is very inclusive.I always enjoy my time spent here getting tattooed and chatting with some really cool people!
My sister and I came in for matching tattoos from Em. They did such an amazing job! The shop is super clean and comfortable. Everyone was nice and the vibes were positive and relaxed. We will definitely be back. Thank you again, Em. Our birds are beautiful!
Electric lady is the spot to get tattooed! The shop is beautifully and colorfully decorated and always immaculatley clean. There is plenty of parking out front and all of the artists are always so welcoming and inviting when I come in. I personally have been tattooed by Bri on three seperate occasions and every time, the design is better then I ever imagined. I highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for an inclusive, safe, and comfortable tattooing experience.
I love getting tattooed here, it’s been my go to shop for the last year or so. My artists moved here, and since then I’ve been tattooed by two more artists at EL! The environment is comfortable, and everyone who works there is phenomenal. The artists are incredibly talented and you will not be disappointed.
ELL is my favorite shop! I have travelled from MN multiple times to get pieces from Bri. The friendliness of the folks here is unmatched! And the talent is out of this world. I go knowing that I will get a gorgeous piece, good healing tips, and a comfortable experience. They go out of their way to make sure you are happy and feel comfy while being in their shop. I wish I lived closer, but distance doesn’t matter when the experience is so wonderful!
Would not go anywhere else for my tattoos. Bri has created a space that is welcoming, creative, and safe. She is willing to work with designs that you have imagined, and always willing to be creative with you. However, her designs are gorgeous and full of whimsy and flair. Can’t say enough good things about Electric Lady Lounge!
I’ve gotten 2 tattoos at this shop by Bri, and they are by far the most fun ones I have! The vibrant shop is clean & inviting. I feel comfortable each time because of the atmosphere and all the people who work there. 10/10 would recommend any of the artists.
So happy I found this place! I have recommended so many people to get tattooed by these awesome artists. the artists produce amazing work (I’ve gotten tattoos from 2 of the 4 artists there but plan to get one from all!) and I get so many complaints on the artwork they have helped put on my body. Not only are they just talented, the vibes in the shop are immaculate. Never felt so safe in a space in my life. Thank you to the whole crew at Electric Lady for just being amazing!
I’ve gotten two tattoos done at Electric Lady Lounge and have two more scheduled this summer! They are amazing and very talented! The setting is clean, calm, and groovy, and I always feel so comfortable during the process. You won’t be disappointed!
I LOVE Electric Lady Lounge! I couldn’t county the number of tattoos I’ve gotten here from Bri and Kitty! I’m planning on getting work from all of their incredible artists. The place is full on vibes and their integrity behind the shops mission is just beyond! It truly is a space for ALL. They support our local LGBTQ community and lots of other community events and groups and are all just all around incredible people! 12/10 would recommend!
When my beloved childhood cat of 19 years passed away, I had been looking all over for the right tattoo artist to capture his essence. A friend recommended Electric Lady and I knew right away that was where I had to go! Em was the absolute right person for the job, they are a PHENOMENAL artist and so genuinely sweet and kind. It’s so delightful to get tattooed by someone who you know loves what they do! This was an incredibly sentimental and emotional piece for me and Em and all the staff at Electric Lady provided such a safe and welcoming space for me! I was so comfortable the entire time and felt so at home there! I don’t even live in town and had to drive an hour and a half but it was SO WORTH IT and I will DEFINITELY be coming back for more ink! 💖💖
Electric Lady Lounge is one of the most accepting and wonderful businesses in Kankakee County. Bri does a phenomenal job and I would recommend her to anyone!
I had my eyebrows done here by Ari in 2021. I immediately felt like family and so comfortable. I have been there every year since and ALWAYS feel welcomed. Their acceptance and truth have a way of making anyone feel so loved. They are all THE BEST!
Two awesome experiences, walking out with two amazing tattoos, both done by the talented @emmaxskye!ELL is well worth the visit for the atmosphere alone. It’s an inclusive space, which is desperately welcome in the tattoo culture. Mid-century modern furnishing, bright pink paint, and an impressive accumulation of art greet you as soon as you walk in the door. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, and I did not once feel like I was invading their spot!Emma is such a talented artist, and I’ve enjoyed working with them as much as I’ve gotten to so far! I’m hoping that we can schedule some more ink in the coming months. They’re prompt when responding to requests, flexible when I had to reschedule, and their work speaks for itself. Not to mention their prices are, in my opinion, more than fair! I got one custom piece and one flash from them, and each speak to Emma’s strengths as a tattoo artist. I couldn’t be more satisfied with them!ELL is about 2 hours away from me, and even then, it’s well worth the drive. I highly recommend checking out the shop, you won’t be disappointed.Thanks again to all the folks at ELL, see y’all soon!
After moving shops, @emmskye landed at this awesome shop and we planned my tattoo. I sent them 3 or 4 reference photos of what I wanted, and they drew up a fantastic original. This shop is colorful, happy, and welcoming to all. The fun things to see are almost endless! I definitely plan to get another one of these days!
Traveled over an hour to get this piece done by THE Electric Lady, Bri Haug and it was SO worth it! Not only is her work amazing so is the shop! It’s welcoming, fun, inviting, & cozy! The work of every artist at the shop is incredible! I already have my next session scheduled! Bri took the time to get to know my sister and I, she was patient, kind, & gentle! If you’ve been looking for a tattoo artist or a new one? Look no further! Any of the artists at Electric Lady Lounge got you covered!
I got a tattoo here from Kitty, and was beyond pleased by my experience. Booking was incredibly easy. Kitty made the experience great, and was professional and friendly. I love my tattoo and already have an appointment for another one. Thank you so much to all staff for what they do here!
Bri and the team at Electric Lady Lounge run the best tattoo parlor you’re going to find anywhere in the Kankakee and Chicagoland area. I’ve had 4 tattoo sessions with Bri now and am planning on many more. Here are some things I love about Electric Lady Lounge: 1) The shop itself is beautiful, welcoming, super clean and just all around really cool. 2) Communicating with the business is smooth, easy and professional. Go check out their website. You’ll see what I mean. 3) Lastly, I’ve not encountered a tattoo parlor with a more uplifting and affirming atmosphere. Each time I’ve visited, I’ve left feeling better than when I came in.If you’re looking for a tattoo, it’d be a mistake to not make Electric Lady Lounge your first option.
Got a tattoo done here this spring. Great experience. Had an idea of what I wanted from a few photos. Bri was able to meld all the ideas into exactly what I envisioned. Very professional, prompt and timely. I will definitely go back and would recommend.
I’ve had three tattoos done by Bri at Electric Lady Lounge and I recommend their space & artists to everyone! Quick, beautiful work in a space that is welcoming to everyone. Can’t recommend highly enough!
Absolutely love everyone here at ELL! I’ve had services done from Ari, Em, and Kitty, and absolutely love the conversations with Rodrigo and Bri as well! Everyone at ELL has always made me feel welcome and valued. Thank you for all you do in our community!!! ❤️
Ive gotten tattoos from both Em and Rodrigo here, theyre awesome! the environment is so so welcoming and some of the coolest and fun art and furniture ive seen. such a safe space and im definitely a permanent returning customer !
Kitty did a small wrist tattoo in Klingon for me. She even double checked the spelling, how amazing is that?! It was quick and the lines are so clean. Plus its an LGBTQ+ affirming business which means everything to me. I cant recommend Kitty and Electric Lady enough.
This is by far the most welcoming and cozy tattoo shop Ive been too. The prices are very fair considering the artistic abilities of the staff. This shop is a cornerstone of our community.
Electric Lady Lounge has tremendously talented artists and is a clean and welcoming space with an outstanding and positive vibe! I have had multiple large very detailed pieces done there and will be going back for more!
I have been tattooed by every person in this shop and I feel welcome every time I go! Super cute, eclectic vibes and incredibly talented artists. You will not be disappointed.
Incredible artists working in an incredible space. Every artist makes you feel comfortable and welcome, and the tattoo work is so top-notch, theyre my favorite shop to go to.
Bri and her team are amazing. I’m honored to be in the same town as her and seeing the impact she has on this community. Definitely get a tattoo here.
Called looking for an opening for a last min idea that I wanted in a time crunch. The young lady that answered told me she had an opening that day. So after explaining what I wanted she told me that she was an apprentice and wasn’t comfortable with tattooing a finger yet (totally respect and love that she was honest and upfront. That speaks volumes on the type of shop this is!). She then proceeded to get me in touch with another artist there that was able to fit me in when honestly she didn’t have to do that at all. She could have easily told me to kick rocks and make an appointment online for another date. So my appointment was for 1230, I get there and was instantly greeted by everyone. Met with “Rodrigo”. We went over my idea that I emailed him about and he made it happen. Great guy, great artist. I will def return to have him tattoo me again. The shop is very clean. You can tell they take safety and cleanliness very serious. Great to see a nice shop finally in the Kankakee area!
Previously one of my eyebrows was burned off during a waxing appt. Also had bad microblading experience. Ari did amazing work with the challenges I presented to her.....so talented! Love my new brows!
Bri is an amazing tattoo artist. A lot of my tattoos are Bri’s art. And I love them all!
Amazing session with Bri! Best tattoo experience Ive had. Friendly and welcoming. Very comfortable environment. Great artistry!
The whole shop is immaculate. The aesthetic, the atmosphere, everything. My artist Rodrigo was nothing short of perfect, from incredible artwork to being friendly and making the experience a thousand times better.
I love this beautiful and expressive shop and it’s artists. Emmxskye recently did a beautiful piece for me and I appreciate their dedication to their clients! Incredible bedside manners too! Would make anyone looking for fresh ink feel good. Their husband Rodrigo is also an amazing artist! Both of them make a great team and have been inked by both of them over the past few years
The only place I will ever be tattooed. They have created such a safe space and are making efforts to better the community. I love them all!
Bri is an absolute delight to work with and ELL is such a fun, clean, and aesthetically pleasing environment to be in. Bri took my vision and gave it her special touch while staying true to what I wanted. She made the experience relaxing and safe while being so professional and a wonderful human being. I would always recommend going to her and would trust her with anything I would want done!
This was the best experience I have ever had getting a tattoo. Everyone who was there was so friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was comfortable and Bri did an amazing job!
I have to give a shout-out to Ari! She’s just amazing. I had permanent eyeliner done by her, she is very detailed, experienced, personal, has an amazing personality, just an overall amazing person. If you’re looking for cosmetic tattoos I’d highly suggest this be the place you consider. The shop is beautiful and such a vibe with some amazing artists. You don’t want to pass this place up.
Electric lady lounge is the best! such a comforting atmosphere for a shop and all of the artists are incredible
Got my first tattoo with Bri and 100% won’t be my last! Super welcoming environment and they calmed my anxiety and walked me through the process! Definitely coming back for more tattoos 🥰
Ari is incredibly talented! I had my eyebrows done and recently cat eye eyeliner and love, love love it! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to enhance their makeup routine and create a maintenance free makeup not only saves time but looks professionally done everyday now!
The folks here are some of the most friendly people Ive ever met. Its a true joy to be tattooed by such amazing people
I’m so happy to see Bri & the rest of the crew at ELL grow and thrive! Their new space is very inviting and relaxed! Bri is a fantastic tattoo artist who always makes sure you are comfortable throughout the process, fun to talk with and very talented and knowledgeable in her craft! I’ve gotten a few tattoos in the past with Bri and recently at ELL, and happy to say my experience was 10/10! :) Congrats on everything Bri! I’m so excited to see the future of ELL, & very excited for more tattoos in the future!
Best tattoo shop Ive ever been to. The friendliest people! Thank you for all you do!
Bri has created such a safe, intimate space to get tattooed. She listens and creates beautiful art for her clients and makes sure you feel seen and heard through the entire process. I am incredibly proud to wear her art forever.
What an awesome place and Bri is a great artist! She ensured I was comfortable and shared all of my ideas well ahead of time. She was professional and hospitable. My tattoos came out perfect. I’m so happy I went to Electric Lady Lounge. I can’t wait to set up my next appointment!
I’ve been getting tattoos from Bri for a few years. She’s a gem and I love her work! ELL’s old shop was amazing but the new space is even more intentional, inviting and fun. I am so excited to see ELL grow with new artists in the space
Seriously the best environment to get tattooed in. The girls here are so sweet and welcoming. All of my tattoos have turned out amazing because of her style and capability to interpret my ideas and make them a reality. I will continue visiting and recommending Bri to all of my friends and family. Ari also had a client and the results were very impressive. They’ve both very professional, transparent and mindful of health guidelines. Thank you ladies!!
From custom work to beautiful flash designs, I have never been anything less than elated after getting a tattoo by Bri! She provides a safe, clean and professional experience in the coolest groovy eclectic lounge space! All 10+ tattoos she has done for me have healed perfectly and hold color. I can’t recommend the electric lady lounge enough for your tattoos (& brows!) I am ready for my next appointment!
Bri is bar far a great tattoo artist and woman.her professionalism, personality,quality is top notch.Her shop is a welcoming safe space, all about a woman’s touch. It’s beautiful for one, the whole shop, the Aesthetic Is authentically Bri, I always enjoy my sessions, from the quality work to the great conversations. It’s just always a good time. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment you won’t regret it.
I worked with Kitty and she very creative. She did a cover for an old tattoo thats just beautiful. Ive gotten many compliments on it. She is interesting to talk to, and a lot of fun.
Bri is amazing! She takes my ideas and makes them exactly how I imagined them but better. She makes getting a tattoo a fun, relaxed, and comfortable experience. She’s the only person I would trust to tattoo me. The shop is so inviting and adorable, and it feels like your getting tattooed by a friend.
Always a lovely time going to Bri for tattoos! She’s professional in her work, while also being very welcoming and easy going. I’ve never had a bad experience with her, and all of the work she’s done for me has exceeded all of my expectations! 100/10 💗
I felt very comfortable and welcomed in the shop when I first walked in. Bri is super nice and a great tattooer. Everyone made me feel so welcomed and I could not recommend them enough!!
This was the best tattoo experience I’ve had. Bri and the whole team were amazing it felt like I was hanging out with friends versus strangers. Bri is a phenomenal person inside and out. I would recommend to everyone.
I highly suggest Electric Lady Lounge. Consultation was easy, pricing is transparent, and the business is very clean/sanitary. This business is LGBTQIA+ friendly and active in the surrounding community. The environment is very welcoming and the staff is very friendly.@emmxskye designed the tattoo better than I had envisioned and im thrilled with the result.
Absolutely love it here! Bri is an amazing artist and created such a vibrant, comfortable, and safe environment to be tattooed in! Such fun, groovy vibes. She knew exactly what I had in mind when I suggested my tattoo, and it turned out BEAUTIFULLY. Also had the pleasure of seeing Ari do freckles and nano brows on other clients, and they turned out so beautiful! :)
With it being my first time ever being tattooed by Bri, I was amazed!! Absolutely adore her creativity that she pours into her work and that she poured into this space! Beautiful vintage furniture and plenty of things to look at while getting tattooed. She was very kind and quick to reply to my messages inquiring tattoos (which you rarely see nowadays with tattoo artists). She was light handed which made it so easy to just look at my phone to distract me as she was tattooing. Ive already made another appointment with her and I will continue to book with her until my whole body is covered!! The piece by her is one of my favorite tattoos ever! The coloring, shading, and all the details make my piece unique.. Bri, I couldnt thank you enough for creating such a chill, comfortable, and welcoming tattoo shop!! 💓
Such a fun, beautiful and safe place to get tattooed! Could not have picked a better place to get my first done :) Bri is such a master of her craft and she will have my business for many years to come. She made me feel completely at ease and her work is always so stunning! Definitely a stand out in the Chicagoland area.
It was such comfortable, safe, & clean experience getting tattooed at Electric Lady Lounge! Bri is an amazing artist and her vibe really just tops it off! Dont even question booking with her, just do it. You wont be disappointed!
Bri makes you feel right at home in her amazing shop! She is great at communication and making sure you walk away with a smile on your face and a great tattoo. Love being here and highly recommend!
The studio is extremely clean and the girls take all perceptions possible before beginning your session. They are so nice and caring, giving the studio a welcoming energy. Bri is an amazing tattoo artist with a light hand and amazing line work.
I was very uncomfortable in this shop. As a woman and the name being Electric Lady Lounge I was hoping for a all inclusive fem/non-binary space to feel comfortable in. They should not be calling it a lady lounge if a male is present. They should make it more known to the public on their instagram that they now have a male working there. Very unfortunate I wanted a safe spot to go to.
If you’re looking for a comfortable, welcoming environment, this is the place to go! Bri and Ari are both very professional and kind throughout the entire time I was getting tattooed. The space that they are in is S T U N N I N G. Bri has always been professional and she knows how to take the idea I have in my head and turn it into some of the most vibrant and fun art I could imagine. Ari also does amazing work from what I have seen. All-in-all, it’s an amazing place to feel welcomed and understood.
Absolutely amazing shop with amazing women behind it. Both Bri & Ari are masters of their craft and provide a safe and comfortable environment for tattoos and permanent cosmetics. Simply the best shop in our area hands down!
Bri and Ari are the sweetest people you’ll meet! I’ve had work done on me by both ladies and they are amazing!! The lounge is clean and inviting and is an all around vibe. You won’t be disappointed with anything you get!
Bri and Ari provide the highest quality care. Their location has the coolest vibe and you can tell every element has been specially selected to provide a welcoming environment for your procedures. They are both indeed artists and are wonderful with working with first time clients!
What a fantastic artist in a funky studio. This is my second time seeing Bri and I couldn’t be more pleased. Her work speaks for itself so she is worth the wait!! Support woman owned business and visit Electric Lady Lounge.
This place is fantastic! You get a homey yet edgy feel as soon as you walk in the door and the company is even better! Bris work is absolutely amazing and she is very professional while setting everything up! I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get some new ink!
I’m so impressed at Ari’s talent every time I see her for an appointment. Very proud of her and her sister for chasing their dreams so that myself and others can have the privilege of being their client.
I love that I can just give Bri my ideas and she’s turned them into exactly what I wanted. Her shop is the absolute cutest and they are really on top of things! I always feel safe and welcomed there in her chair!
Wonderful matching tattoos for my daughter and I done by Kitty.
This is THE place to get tattooed, Bri is an incredible artist that makes you feel safe and badass at the same time. She has created a space safe for all bodies to get amazing art!
Great experience with Ari! Will definitely go back! She is amazing!!!
Amazing, inclusive shop with the most talented, diverse, and passionate artists in town 🖤
