Destination Tattoo Studio

I love the staff here. They are kind, caring, understanding and so patient. It was the first time getting a tattoo for me and Justin was awesome! Jaime did a tragus piercing for me and she's awesome too! I will definitely give them more business.

Very impressed with this place! The artists here are all very nice and accommodating. I first talked to Jamie for an appointment and she was very sweet and helpful. My friends and I had Justin Jay do our tattoos. Highly recommend him, he is very talented and knows his stuff!

My wife and I came here for a tattoo! We had a wonderful visit our tattoo artist was extremely nice! The receptionist the owners and the other tattoo artists were nice as well :-) we would definitely recommend coming here they have Good Vibrations good people and good tattoos! It's not too far away from anywhere in Des Moines if you would like great tattoos and great customer service! Best tattoo shop around! Check it out in Grimes!

AMAZING service!! Everyone was super friendly and I felt very comfortable around everyone!

Justin and Jamie are amazing! They took the time to listen to my individual health needs and design ideas. Made me a priority in giving me a first time experience I will never forget. The environment is clean, fun and professional. I will recommend to all my friends and family! Hope to return soon.

Got a tongue piercing done and had to take it out after 2 days. I did everything I was supposed to do caring for it but she didn’t give me a rod long enough for my tongue to even swell so it got infected and it sunk so far into my tongue. I also got a tattoo here that was pretty simple and small, it’s probably been a year or less and it’s already fading and I took care of it like I was supposed to.

Cool shop with a great team doing tattoos, piercings AND laser removals. The best local place to go for any kind of tattoo, and they also did a wonderful job piercing my elementary age daughter's ears.

Ryan Hammel did a great job on sister bee tattoos for us! Arick was very professional and stepped in and fixed another tattoo we were not in love with. Overall very clean, professional, good conversation and I got the feeling the very much care about your experience and loving your ink!

Friendly staff. Taco aka Adam King did wonderful job capturing the personality of my dog! Will definitely be back in future for more work!

I was very excited to start my sleeve with “Taco” at Destination Tattoo. Consultation had to be rescheduled (they called about an hour before), which wasn’t a big deal at all as I had seen the work they do. The consultation went well and I was very anxious to get started! I was on my way in to get my tattoo started and I get a call saying it would “work best for his schedule to do it tomorrow”. I had left early from work to get the tattoo so some planning had gone into the schedule. I was told that if tomorrow didn’t work, which it didn’t, the next available time would be a week from now...that call came 30 minutes before it was scheduled to start. 2 reschedules in a row, within an hour of the appointment time. Ridiculous. If you’re willing to reschedule time and time again, go ahead and get your ink there. If not, don’t waste your time.
