Our Story
Victoria Tattoos provides a professional, clean, safe, sterile, Island Health approved, fun & friendly environment to get your next tattoo in! Our head artist Douglas Melanson has been making beautiful custom artwork in the Victoria area since 2011. Our tattoo shop excels in Neo-Traditional, American Traditional, Japanese Traditional, black & grey realism, fine line, and bold color styles, and the vast majority of our clients are through referrals and word-of-mouth. With several “wanna-do” tattoo design books, full of custom artwork, there’s lots to see in our quaint shop. Stop by to say to hi, bring your ideas or pick one from one of our wanna dos!
9 years of tattoo experience
With over ten years of tattoo experience, our skilled tattoo artists can design, tattoo, and touch up any kind of tattoo.
Hundreds of happy clients
You don’t get to tattoo hundreds of clients unless you’re good at what you do. Our happy clients are our #1 advertising.
Local, affordable rates
We’re local, and offer reasonable rates. Beautiful artwork is priceless.
I contacted Douglas Melanson at Tiger Tattoo and received amazing service from the first chat. We discussed my tattoo ideas and timeline, which was very short, and he made it all work within my budget. I love the design we came up with and the tattoo itself turned out better than I even expected!
@douglasmelanson is so awesome check him out if you’re ever in #Victoria and are itchin for ink!
Douglas Melanson is an extremely multi-talented talented artist who listens to his clients and puts them at ease with his easy-going personality. I had an amazing experience with him at the shop and will definitely be returning for future work!
