Devon is the best! My fiance and I are tattoo first-timers, and Devon went above and beyond, explaining the process before our appointment, creating a design based on pictures we provided, and making us feel comfortable. The time flew by chatting with Devon on numerous interesting topics and we both were 100% satisfied with the look of our designs. We cant wait to get more ink and would only choose Devon for the job! Highly recommend Devon and Sellwood Tattoo Parlor.
Love the vibe at Sellwood tattoo 💜 I have been getting tattooed regularly for all of my adult life (32 F) and had many good experiences throughout the years. My experience today was hands down the best tattoo experience I have ever had! Adam Strong is extremely kind, knowledgeable, and professional. Such a talented and versatile artist! I cant wait to work on more projects with Adam and come back to a comfortable laid back environment. Thank you to the whole team ✨🔥
Best tattoo shop Ive been to. Great people work here, woman owned shop. You will get a great experience here, and I highly recommend you book with Devon
Devon was AMAZING!!!!!!! I was nervous (yet excited) about getting my first tattoo and Devon did an incredible job walking me through the process and creating a welcoming and friendly environment in which I felt comfortable asking all my questions (regardless of how silly they may have been). Also, Im OBSESSED with the end result. Devon took my pika-huckleberry-avalanche lily vision and turned it into a beautiful tattoo that I cant stop admiring. Ive gotten so many compliments on the tattoos line work and detail and I just love it so so so much.
I have had six tattoos done here, including a sleeve (which is still in progress). The energy here is perfect. Everyone is so kind, plus its obvious they care about one another and enjoy working together. Being in a chair here heals my soul. If youre thinking about getting a tattoo, this is absolutely the place to do it.
I literal am obsessed with the work I just got done getting a tattoo today, super chill friendly environment very clean professional business, I was blessed to have Devon as an artist and she was amazing great personality very knowledgeable courteous she is a rare Gem!! I Will be back!!
Devon is amazing! I was so nervous to get my first tattoo but she made it the best experience. My tattoo is absolutely beautiful! I am so happy with it!
This place has a great vibe. Everyone is super friendly. I got my rib piece from Adam and Im ecstatic about the result.
DEVON DEVON DEVON!! Such a personable and kind person. She goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. Her work is also amazing. Could not recommend someone more.
My new default tattoo shop! Reed was super easy to work with, accommodating, and extremely talented! I will be back (hopefully) soon for more.
Devon is really good at her craft. Id definitely recommend 10/10 ⭐* Updated Devon is an amazing artist. I wont go to anyone else.
I got my first ever tattoo at Sellwood Tattoo Parlor and worked with Devon. Through out the entire experience Devon was absolutely outstanding and very professional.I had a custom piece that I wanted done and she did an incredible job.I knew what elements I wanted but was not sure about the design or layout.During my consultation, I immediately felt comfortable and confident in her. She was very easy to talk to and has a great energy.The design she worked up was perfect and I am very very happy with the finished product.Devon has a great attention to detail and is very talented at her craft.Also shout out to Cody who I didn’t work with but I enjoyed talking to as I was getting tattooed.These guys at Sellwood Tattoo Parlor are great and I highly recommend going there!
Ive been going to both Cody and Reed since they were at Jaded Soul on division and Ive always thought they were the BEST artists there. Ive since followed them as they transitioned into the Sellwood Tattoo shop and I can honestly say theyve only gotten better! The shop itself is very welcoming and has such a good vibe to it, everyone there is always laughing with one another. They always make sure the customers feel as welcome and comfortable as they possibly can. I couldn’t imagine goin anywhere else!
Devon is such a sprite! I love her passion around doing first tattoos and educating those getting them. She did my daughters first, my 3rd my sons 2 & 3rd (so far).The team at the shop all bring great energy and create an environment you want to come back to.
Devon is the best!! She did my Persian cat chest piece & did a cancer scar cover up for me. Also shes just fun to talk to! Everyone in the shop is super nice 👍🏻
Great staff, great ink! Took my nephew for his first tattoo on his 18th birthday and hes already saving to get his next one.
Everyone was so amazing, a few family members and I went in to get tattoos and the three artists we had made the experience so special and did an absolutely amazing job! Thank you!!
Brendo is absolutely my go to artist. Communication with him is always super easy and quick, he’s ridiculously talented, and he’s just one of my favorite people. As a woman, getting an under-bust tattoo can be a bit unnerving, but Brendo went out of his way to ensure I was safe and comfortable. Not to mention, Devon and Reed are some of the most genuine and down to earth folks to chat with and pass the time while getting work done there. Highly recommend this place!
I worked with Devon. She was very professional & sweet. Had nice time talking to her while being tattooed. She did a great job on my tattoo. I’m trying to post pics of tattoo but won’t let me? I want to post picts of her work. I can’t seem to? But Devin did a great job! I’ve had SO many compliments.
My fiancé and I came in for the weekend to get a tattoo here. We walked in with a warm welcome from them and a few other artists. From just chatting via email they were able to put together exactly what we were wanting. We had nice conversations with each of our artists and they gave us a good recommendations for Portland. Thats not even the best part - the best part is the beautiful art they left with us forever. Thank you for the great experience, Adam and Derek! We will recommend you guys to everyone!!
This place is awesome. I have been tattooed by Reed and Cody and both artist are amazing to work with. I highly recommend getting a tattoo by both artist. Very clean, friendly and fun to work with.
Come here and get a tat from Adam Strong. Hes a cool dude, and an incredible artist
Amazing experience, great vibes and talented artists! Professional, kind and nonjudgmental.
Brendon is an excellent artist and I will never go anywhere else or to anyone else. Extremely clean shop and clean work. So far he has done two of mine. A jar scene and a lantern most recent. Friendly and funny staff, keeps you distracted during the session.
Devon is amazing! She is friendly, professional and an amazing artist. Sellwood Tattoo is always clean and the atmosphere is very welcoming!!
Went in to see Chantel, after looking at tons of artists for the piece I wanted. She is one of the only artists that I saw that had numerous posted examples of the type of art and style I was looking for.After going in, which she was booked out for three months min, I sat down to get lady justice on my side. So far the only artist that I have felt comfortable saying, whatever you want to do go for it. With some minimal input of what I was looking for.All that to say, her art far exceeded what I was hoping for. She is an amazing artist and great person as well. I cant see going anywhere else in the Portland metro area for my art. Simply stunning art and skill. I am looking forward to getting more work from her done.
I can not say enough great things about this shop! I am always a little intimidated walking into a tattoo parlor, based of my previous experiences. I came in to ask some questions and get a little input and they were very friendly and helpful. Emi did my tattoo and made the entire experience exceptional! She is warm and friendly and now I have an amazing tattoo that I get to see everyday but also a fond memory when I got it. This shop is a gem!!!
Chantal was dope dude. She laughed at all my jokes while she gave my best friend her first tattoo. She was extremely patient with the three of us (we are quite loud and annoying) and we took most of the time deciding on the font for the tattoo. All the praise! Great job. Mary loves it. Maybe Ill come back and have her do mine as well :)
I have been going to sellwood tattoo for a year now and getting work done by Chantell. She is a great artist that has turned small ideas I’ve had into beautiful pieces of art. Derek and Emi are also awesome artists! The shop is great and everyone is really cool and it’s an easy place to get work done
Chantel did an amazing job covering up some small tattoos I had behind my ear. I hadnt set up an appointment and I walked right in. Very courteous, friendly and excellent artwork! I left extremely content! I will most definitely refer friends or anyone for that matter to sellwood tattoo! The other artists were also fun to be around! Lots of laughs! Thank you so much!!!
My experience was great! Chantel is a great artist and I cant wait to get back and finish my piece.This is a clean professional establishment and was a awesome place to get a tattoo. Be back soon !Made it back to finish my piece wow I cant say enough on how great a job Chantel did .Thank you !
I have several tattoos from various artists but my two favorites are the ones I just had done last week by Brendo(n). Brendo was incredibly time efficient, caring, and took the time to draft up exactly what I wanted. My sister, girlfriend and I all went in for an appointment together with different ideas and Brendo had pinpointed our tattoos to match exactly what each of us had in mind. In fact, after he did my first tattoo, I decided to go ahead and get a second design hed drawn that very same day. He was so incredibly professional; it is so evident to me that every tattoo he creates (no matter how small) is something he takes pride in, and appreciates attention to detail. His after care advice has also been phenomenal. It was my sisters first tattoo, and she had a few follow up questions the next day. Brendo responded to us immediately with sound advice. Whether youre seeking a custom first tat, or have had work done in the past, the designs Brendo can do for you will truly exceed all expectations. From now on, I will only get my work done from him at Sellwood tattoo. Thank you Brendo!!! 10/10
Sellwood Tattoo is, 100%, a place you want to get tattooed. Reed is who tattooed me today and is outstanding, but the same could be said for all of the artists. Covid safe, supportive of all humans, and woman owned - whats not to love?
Ive been to a lot of tattoo shops and i will say 100% this is where i will go long term. Had my father in law use Harry here at the shop and he loved the experience. Super professional and detail oriented. Didnt waste time and charge us time to sketch it either. Chantel is extremely nice and helpful. I would recommend this shop for those who want a great service, awesome work, and a legit experience. Only met Harry and Chantel but im sure anyone there is great. Would 100% recommend to any friends or family. Thanks guys see you soon!
This place is amazing! My tattoo artist Emi does amazing work, is receptive to ideas and has great vision. Theyre a great bunch to hang out with and get tattooed by. Id reccomend them to anyone!
Got tattoos so far at this location and it’s has always been a great experience. Great job by the artists, high quality, very professional and a good talk with your artist. Highly recommended.
Chantel is an amazing artist, and takes the time to find out exactly what you want down to the smallest detail. Love her work, and will definitely be visiting again and again.
Went in with an unfinished tattoo, Devon re-worked it and kept the art true to the anime. She is also a pleasure to chat with, highly recommend her!
Got my annual birthday tattoo here, since I live in the area. The atmosphere is laid back and friendly, and Brendon was efficient, quick, knowledgeable and fun to talk to, and gave me a fair price. I’ll be back.
After not being happy with the finished product. I thought we would work together to fix the situation and instead I was told she would not work with me anymore. Now I am stuck with a tattoo I don’t like and have to find someone else to fix it.
Derek did an awesome job on my wedding ring tattoo. It far exceeded my expectation. Friendly artists and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend them.
Had a great experience with Cody! He managed to get all 3 of us on a girls trip in for some quick tattoos!! Thank you sooo much Cody!!
The best Tattoo shop Ive ever been to hands down, 10 out of 10 I would recommend to anyone. I got to sit down with my artist talk about some ideas and I have my favorite tattoo now because of it! Thankyou sellwood tattoo🤘🤘
Derek is awesome. He did my last 2 tattoos. And will be my next tattoo he also did my two boys his tattoos keep up the great work Derek.
Choosing a tattoo artist can be a difficult process. After several months of reviewing portfolios, I decided that Chantels portfolio spoke to me. I wanted a custom design melding various elements, and from all accounts, custom pieces are Chantels specialty.On October 17th (2017) I sent Chantel an email explaining that I wanted to get a custom piece designed, and would like more info on the process. I never got a response to that email.On January 28th (2018), I sent a follow up email; I received an automated response that included, my response time may take a few days, so I waited, but when I hadnt heard anything after five days, I sent a third email. In this email I advised that I would be in town for a few days in February, and asked to schedule a consultation in person. Again I got the same automated response.On February 9th, I wrote my fourth email which said, Can you PLEASE confirm receipt of this email and let me know why you havent responded to me. Are you selecting not to take me on as a client? Or was it an oversight with my last three emails?Again, I got an automated response, so I know the email went to the right email address, but I never got an actual response.In a last ditch effort, I called the shop on February 26th, and left a message requesting a call back or a response to one of my four emails.It is now March 3rd and I have not gotten any responses from my four emails or my voicemail.I am very disappointed that this shop does not treat customers better.My attempts to reach the shop for scheduling:--10/17/17 email--01/28/18 email (104 days later)--02/02/18 email (5 days later)--02/09/18 email (7 days later)--02/26/18 voicemail (17 days later)
There is no debate Adam Strong is the MVP no one else wanted to take on my chest cover up. He did and its a masterpiece in the making. He has a easy hand, a rotary gun and a CHILL attitude. What else is there to ask for.
Brendon was professional through the whole process. From initial email, the artwork details, and the work itself. I highly recommend Sellwood Tattoo
Hands down the coolest shop in the area, it has a fantastic atmosphere with great music playing, and all of the artists are exceptional and professional. If you want a tattoo, get it done at Sellwood.
My man Reed Davison is a great artist and a great person to talk to, keeps your mind off the process while he talks to you about anything you can think of. Five 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The artists are all super cool and helpful and not stuck up/full of themselves like too many shops. Great deal for great ink. Their my shop!
Chantel is a first class artist and her personality makes the time fly by. My #1 go to tattoo parlor.
Great shop for anyone looking to get a new tattoo or touch-up/cover-up of existing tattoos. Good price point and variety of artists that can provide any style you desire.
They were able to get me in last minute, and did a great job on drawing up what I was looking for. Great atmosphere and friendly staff!!
Chantel is a wonderful person and makes each tattoo session a special experience!
Wonderful people there. Respectful, kind, accommodating. A genuinely wonderful tattoo experience.
Brendo knows how to take your ideas and bring them to life!I wanted to keep simple but my wife goes the extra mile!
All of the artists are amazing, funny and made the whole experience great. Will definitely be going back again and again.
Harry is amazing! Very professional and talented. Clean environment, friendly atmosphere.
Chantel is always awesome. I love her work!
