Tattoo shops in Missouri.

GetMarkd lists 110 verified tattoo studios across 2 cities in Missouri, including St. Louis, Kansas City. Each shop is hand-vetted with real reviews, real portfolios, and active operations.

Most Missouri shops charge $150–$250 per hour, with small flash pieces starting around $80–$120 and full sleeves running $1,500–$4,000+. Pricing varies by city, artist demand, and complexity. Use our cost calculator for a tighter estimate.

Many do — especially on weekends and for smaller flash pieces. For custom or larger work, expect to book a consultation and wait 2–8 weeks depending on artist demand. Use the walk-in filter to find shops currently accepting same-day appointments.

Start with our ranked list of top studios for 2026, filter by the style you want (fine-line, traditional, black-and-grey, color realism), and check verified review counts. The best signal is matching an artist's portfolio to your specific idea, not just chasing the highest rating.

All licensed shops in Missouri are required to follow state health-department sterilization standards — single-use needles, autoclaved equipment, and bloodborne-pathogen training. Every shop on GetMarkd is verified as actively operating; ask to see the studio's current license on arrival.
