TatScout's findings

A young studio-only three years old-that's already cracked the 4.9-star threshold across over 100 reviews is doing something right. Goodkind's watercolour and traditional specialisms suggest artists with real technical depth; watercolour especially isn't forgiving of sloppy execution. The walk-in policy is a plus for spontaneous types, though the review count hints this place has found steady demand. Best suited for clients after either painterly, atmospheric work or solid traditional pieces, and who trust a studio that's proved itself quickly rather than relying on decades of history.

À propos du studio

Goodkind Tattoo operates in Chicago with a reputation built quickly since its 2021 opening. The studio has already accumulated strong client trust, reflected in its 4.9-star rating across 109 reviews-a meaningful volume for a relatively young establishment. This suggests a studio that prioritises consistency and client satisfaction from the outset.

The studio specialises in two distinct styles: watercolour and traditional work. Watercolour tattoos demand particular skill, as the technique relies on translucency, colour diffusion, and fine brushwork to create that signature soft, painterly effect. Pairing this with traditional designs shows flexibility in approach-whether you're after bold lines and classic imagery or something more fluid and impressionistic, Goodkind's artists have demonstrated range. The watercolour specialty in particular sets them apart in a city with no shortage of tattoo options.

As a walk-in-friendly studio, you don't necessarily need an appointment, though consulting ahead about design work is always sensible. For first-timers, expect the standard process: a consultation to discuss your idea, placement, sizing, and the artist's recommendations based on their style expertise. Deposits are standard practice in the industry and help secure your spot and lock in your design. Chicago's transit accessibility means reaching most neighbourhoods is straightforward if you're not driving.

Goodkind Tattoo has established itself as a solid choice in Chicago's competitive tattoo landscape, with particular appeal if watercolour work or refined traditional designs align with your vision.

Couldn't be happier with my tattoo. Matt Atkinson is an amazing artist. I sent him 6 pictures of my boy Jaxon and he drew the stencil freehand from those photos. It is a perfect splitting image of my dog! The atmosphere in the shop was awesome. Relaxed with great music. Couldn't be happier with Matt and the outcome of my tattoo. Thank you Matt and goodkind tattoo! I'll have my boy with me forever. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Matt and this shop

I have been returning to Goodkind tattoo for 11 years now; from Kansas, the old location, now the new location a few times even. I have completed an entire calf & back piece with Rob. He has a very distinct style & I love everything this man has tattooed on me. Everywhere I go, I get consistent compliments. I recently had my inner thigh tattooed by Tim on whim. In my defense, he drew up the most perfect frog & I’m getting limited on space. Who am I to resist though? If you have to get such a sensitive spot tattooed, I would totally recommend him. Tim offered me a pillow, made sure I was comfy, & gave me a perfect tattoo. I have also been tattooed by Dottie several times through out the years, she’s funny, a very talented artist, & accommodating. I even let her tattoo my knee & she made it a good experience somehow. Dottie started a cover up/back piece for my husband this week & it is gorgeous! I can only assume that everyone that works here is also amazing! 10/10 would recommend.

I have gotten a majority of my tattoos from Ashley and I cannot recommend her or this shop enough! Ashley is communicative, enjoyable to talk and work with, and comes of up with beautiful artwork. She’s fun to collaborate with and I love the way she stylizes her artwork to fit my vision for a piece. I adore her work and get countless compliments on everything she’s ever done. I really cannot emphasis enough how much of a delight she is to work with and I recommend her to anyone interested in getting work done. Also, I have gotten two pieces done at the shop during the pandemic and the efforts the shop has gone to in order to ensure the safety of their employees and customers is top not h.
