The Ginger Cat

BEAUUUUUTIFULLLL studio!!!! Gosh have they done an amazing job at representing themselves here! Cats everywhere and this is up there with the coolest tattoo places Ive ever been to. Wonderful people too. I got tattooed by Shannon and she was sooooo nice and such a great person.Onto why I gave 3 stars instead of 5... Though this studio and the artists are amazing. Its more about the location. The walls dont go to the ceiling and its a shared building with over 20 hair stylists, tattoo artists, barbers, massage therapists, etc. Depending on what time you go, it can get LOUD, and you can hear everything. Over half of the time I spent there, there was a child (under 5) getting a haircut and screaming at the top of their lungs. Absolutely not against The Ginger Cat nor Shannon and all of that is out of their control, but I wish they had their own place. I can only imagine how much they would utilize and maximize their own building. Its 2024 though and were in a financial crisis lol. Nothing we can do.I also do think that their prices are a liiiitttle high, but I absolutely understand why. Just my opinion based on my personal experience with artists. Cost for two flash tattoos (2x1in, 3x2in, 2 hours total) in photo: $400 (not including tip)

I dont know if I can even explain how amazing this studio is. Warm, welcoming, professional and clean is your first and lasting feel when you walk in. I havent even gotten to the artists. Shannon did my new tattoo and I cant stop looking at it, Im so in love. They have 2 other artists, Nina and Cas, I have no doubt would be equally stunning...I guess Ill just have to get 2 more tattoos so I can work with each of them? ;) The art on the wall, the comfortable conversation and easy-going (but still very professional) feeling, it was like hanging out with friends for the afternoon and walking away with art that will be with you forever.If you are trying to decide on your new local studio, look no further. Seriously.

Shannon and the team are A+ it’s hard for me to trust a tattoo artist because let’s face it. It’s permanent and you want to trust and make sure the artist and the business do a good job. My experience here was amazing! Can’t thank Shannon enough!

Very skilled artists. Shannon is great. The place looks awesome. Highly recommend if you can get in, they have a wait time of course, as all good tattoo artists do.

I love this spot. Ive been going to Nina for my tattoos for a couple years and have no desire to stop- her artwork is beautifully genius, the tattoos are clean, crisp, and stay well-defined. Shes also an absolute joy to be around which is awesome when youre sitting with the same person for several hours. And the shop itself is adorable and cozy. Will undoubtedly be going back repeatedly.

Awesome experience here!! The artist, Shannon, was very friendly and did some super fine, detailed line work for my first tattoo that turned out really beautiful. Highly recommend!

The ladies at The Ginger Cat are some of the most talented artists I have ever met, both in the skin and off. They are definitely artists first and tattooists second, which is a rarity in the industry. I will go to them for all of my work!!

I had them repair/touch up/cover up a 16 year old tattoo that had mistakes in it from the first tattoest (Different shop). They did amazing work! The imperfections are all fixed and it looks great which is the first time I can say that!

Amazing customer service!! Super professional, creative, and passionate team!! These gals know how business is done!! I can’t wait to set up my next appointment and show off their work!!!!

I’ve had some awesome experiences! Shannon is a truly talented artist that has great attention to detail! I’d recommend to everyone around the Twin Cities.

Shannon and Lu are some of the most skilled and kind tattoo artists in the cities. Absolutely check them out.

Had a wonderful experience here with Nina! Nina and Cas both made great conversations and made the energy in there very welcoming! I look forward to booking more in future!

I love my new tattoo from Cas at the Ginger Cat! They made sure I was comfortable during the tattoo and they did such a great job designing and putting it on my body based on what I wanted.

Under closer review my 4 star has now turned into a 5 star as my tattoo has had its touch up and now its complete and I am extremely happy with my tattoo! Thank you again Nina 😍🥰😊😉😄😃😀💉

Amazing experience, these are some of my favorite tattoo artist in the Minnesota! I can not recommend them enough!!

They do such amazing work!! Great people, cool studio, couldnt recommend enough!

Cutest shop ever, and the artists are incredibly talented and friendly! i cant wait to book with Cas again soon!

The facility is clean and sanitary with a beautiful and artistic decor. These professionals listen well and the experience exceeds expectations, they’ve a gained lifelong client

The hours posted or not correct we drove all the way here and found out they were closed. There’s no phone number to call to verify the hours before hand otherwise I would’ve.

Lovely humans doing lovely art
