24 adelaide-based tattooists to check out

By

Attention all Adelaideans: make sure to check out these rad tattoo artists for your next ink session.

It's no secret that we happen to be big tattoo fans over here at frankie. We've already scoured the web for the best tattooists hailing from Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, and we reckon that there's no better time than now to shout out some lovely artists residing in South Australia's biggest city. Take a gander at our picks down below. 

IF YOU'RE AFTER SOMETHING BOLD 

It's not just our clothing that deserves to be adorned with bright colours and vibrant prints, our skin also deserves a little zhuzh of boldness, too. Check out these tattoo artists that specialise in daring and flashy designs, if that just so happens to be your bread and butter.

IF YOU'RE AFTER SOMETHING CUTE 

We know that tattoos are usually associated with skulls, gothic motifs and a wide array of scary-looking critters, but if you're more partial to flowers, Disney characters and kittens, these artists have you covered.
