Steel Rod Tattoo

Operating as normal today!

Vote. Don’t vote. Vote red, blue, purple, or for whoever promises cheaper tacos—we’re not judging your political views.

What we are judging is all that undecorated skin you keep walking around with.

Come let us help fix that.

- Walk-in tattoos are available on a first come, first served basis with available artists.
- Piercings are available every business day during normal business hours.

And keep your eyes peeled over the next few days—we’ll be dropping details on our Toy Drive and our Friday the 13th specials.

November is just getting started!

What a crazy weekend for the studio. Between events, contests, flash specials, and everything else, y’all definitely kept us busy.

So what’s November bringing?

Stay tuned. We may or may not already be plotting a Thanksgiving-related contest.

For today, though, the studio will be CLOSED while we celebrate the birthday of the real boss around here — Eric’s 10-year-old Anakin.

We’ll resume normal business hours tomorrow.

Thanks for an awesome weekend, Indianapolis.

🎃 Huge thank you to Tibb's Drive In for having Steel Rod Tattoo out for Trunk or Treat!

The turnout was absolutely insane and the night was a huge success.

We brought over 4,000 pieces of candy and somehow managed to run out right at the very end. That should tell you how many people came through.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, grabbed candy, said hello, took one of our cards, or just came over to see what we were doing.

And thank you again to Tibbs Drive-In for putting together such a fun event and letting us be part of it.

We definitely had a blast. And can’t wait to see what next year brings!

🎃 AND WE HAVE OUR WINNERS!

This one came down to the wire, but a late 24-hour rally pushed Joy James into the lead and straight into $100 CASH!

- 1st Place — Joy James: $100 CASH
- 2nd Place — Ashton Hale: $100 Steel Rod Tattoo gift card
- 3rd Place — Marco Enriquez: $50 Steel Rod Tattoo gift card

We weren’t about to let 2nd and 3rd walk away empty-handed after that kind of battle.

Thank you to everyone who entered, shared, voted, and made this way more competitive than we expected.

Gift cards can be picked up at the studio and must be claimed by January 1, 2027.

Congratulations, and Happy Halloween from Steel Rod Tattoo! 🎃

🎃🍬 WE’RE OUT HERE SLINGING CANDY AND HALLOWEEN CHAOS!

Steel Rod Tattoo is hanging out at Tibbs Drive-In for Trunk or Treat! We’ve got enough candy to make your dentist consider early retirement.

BUT DON’T FORGET! Our studio is STILL OPEN!

- Flash tattoos ready to go!
- Piercings for anyone looking to get a little shinier!

Walk-in tattoos are first come, first served with available artists, and piercings are available during normal business hours!
