Ben Around Tattoos is a Virginia-based studio offering professional tattooing services (we do not pierce). We provide a high-end environment that balances classic aestheticism and popular culture. We take pride in the craft of tattooing and demonstrate it through each piece that is done in our studio!
Tattooing is one of the oldest professions as well as one of the oldest art forms in history. We pay careful attention to the fit and flow of each of our pieces and our goal is to ensure that each tattoo, no matter how big or small, gets done right the first time. Our team strives to create a unique atmosphere to get the custom piece of art that you would want to wear forever and can cherish for the years to come.
