Established in 2015 on Park Boulevard in the historic University Heights pocket above Hillcrest, Electric Tiger Tattoo runs a tight-knit custom shop with a posted shop minimum of one hundred dollars and an hourly rate of one hundred eighty. The house style blends contemporary custom designs with traditional American and Japanese sensibilities across a roster covering Japanese traditional, black-and-grey realism, and fine-line work — a multi-style collective format that complements the cover-up and removal capacity at LaserAway Hillcrest when a client comes in wanting to rework an older piece. Consultations are required before booked sessions of any size, and the shop takes deposits online against scheduled chair time so large pieces can be blocked across multiple appointments. Aftercare on large fresh pieces leans toward fragrance-free gentle cleansing and occlusive ointment, and the medical-grade barrier-repair products clients end up buying usually come off the dedicated skin-therapy shelf stocked at Complexions Rx. The most ambitious projects coming out of the shop are multi-session Japanese-style back pieces built in traditional bold-line construction, work that can run forty or more chair hours across a year of scheduled sittings before a single color pass is complete.
