I personally don't have any ink but when we got my wife's tattoo done 7th street tattoo in Little Rock was told to be the best place in the state to have work done.  With that said were very pleased with the professionalism and cleanliness of the place.  And her work was done perfectly.

I am an inkie, but I've not gotten any work done since moving to Arkansas.  I have only been to 7th Street Tattoo and I can also say that I was impressed with the friendliness and cleanliness of the place.

Tip:  Any good tattoo artist should have photo albums of the work they have done.  They should be laying around so that anyone can flip through them.  Make sure you look at these.  Tattoos are like any other piece of art.  5 artists could paint the same picture, but they would all have their own "style" to it.  Make sure you like what you see in the pictures.  Also, ask about which artist is most experience in the particular type of piece you want, be it portrait, color, detailed, etc.

Best of the best in central Arkansas. Chris Thomas  (he's a glockophile too) He has a few styles he prefers, is almost arrogant and no one in central Arkansas can touch him. He has every right to any attitude he may have about his skills.  They're custom only, no flash. So an appointment is a good idea, but probably not required if you're open to using any of his other artists. His other artists are good too.  They're in sherwood.

7th street http://7thstreettattoos.com/ will only keep pretty good artists around. I've had work done there and would go back.  They're in downtown Little Rock.

I've seen work done at Red Beard's living canvas in Hot Springs, they're good.

Cab at the vault has done some work on me and does good clean work. They're in an old bank at University and Asher in Little Rock. He's my current artist, though I'll go to anyone with skills.

Anchor in bryant is my choice from now on. I've seen some great work from those guys. Never, EVER, go to dermatech in benton. My letters bled together after about 2 months... It's a tat, and I'm gonna live with it because I got it for a reason, but I don't recommend him.
