Tattoodo - Your Next Tattoo Reviews

I was hoping Tattoodo would help me find an artist that could execute my idea with the fit my style I was looking for. So unfortunately I was very disappointed that I had to leave the entire thing in the apps hands instead of being able to find the perfect artist for me for myself. The BIGGEST problem I have with Tattoodo is that I cant figure out how to search for an artist in my city that can do a specific style. All the artist profiles should be required to select the styles they like to tattoo, so it could help us find the right artist and studio for the specific piece we want done. When I click from the apps style list, it shows me only pictures of tattoos from random places. I dont want to have to scroll through EVERY single artists profiles in my city to find a select few who do the "new school" style. Its extremely tedious and besides the point, otherwise I would just browse on instagram. There should be a sub category in the "artists in your area" tab where I can narrow down the results to what I need, rather than scrolling through every artists portfolios separately (extremely annoying process).

Well, it seemed like it would’ve been super helpful and for some people I’m sure it is. So my negative review is based off of my personal experience with it. After I made my account and people tried to search me to make sure it was set up correctly it said I needed to finish setting up my account to get verified, but it would never show me what I needed to finish. It wouldn’t allow me to create an @ handle either it kept saying that my name/username didn’t exist. Then it kept deleting all my information through Tattoodo , but through the website it would stay. It wouldn’t allow me to place how much my hourly rate was at first then after an hour of messing with it it placed it in there, but then wouldn’t allow me to select USD for the currency. It was nothing but problems and with having to pay the monthly subscription upfront to get the pro with that amount of problems, I would personally not sign up or redo load this again.

You’d have better luck just searching Instagram hashtags to your local area.
Asked for help finding a certain type of color artist (new school / Neo traditional) and they connected me with the local Los Angeles guy who was to help. Great!- I thought…
In turn, he sent me multiple black/gray color artist instead. After rejecting a shop for they primarily do black/gray, they sent me another artist from the same shop who again was only black/gray. Third time they finally sent a color artist (same shop again which is odd as I know LA has 100+ tattoo shops, why send just one shop) and the color work was watercolor, nothing close to new school / neo trad I pretty clearly requested.
Went to instagram, searched some tags and found a neo traditional artist within a day who can do the job.
Definitely cannot recommend Tattoodo.

Write this review from a tattoo artist perspective...so far I’ve been using this app for a month now and I’ve been able to secure several appointments, 2 of them are full sleeves. I like the tattoo leads features although I believe there should be more fields for the client fill out to give us artists more information. I’m giving Tattoodo 4 stars because a few little things I wish I could do. Like rearrange the order of photos in my gallery, edit times on my calendar and couldnt figure out how to edit the shop address but all and all I believe this platform has potential.

i am saddened by the new path this app has taken “…we’re partnering with studios in these cities and providing booking assistants to help manage conversations and schedule appointments…according to the above changes to our service, meaning access to client leads will no longer be open. If your studio wishes to apply for partnership…” i am an independent artist in new york and i was using the pro subscription of Tattoodo to connect to clients in which the turn out i would say was a fair % of my work since i have no support from the studio i am in and barely any walk-ins. Now with this recent change there is nothing much left to do with Tattoodo i have been cut off from potential clients requests

Two small things that are kind of bothersome:
1) the locations services are terrible. When I search my city, it doesn’t show it as Richmond, Va. It shows as Richmond, US making it so I have to filter through tons of results and even then none of them are for Richmond, VA?
2) none of the tattoos I like show up in my liked section and when I was registering, if I selected one tattoo I liked it selected all the ones in similar style even if I didn’t like them. Couldn’t unlike them without unliking the original one. Real frustrating.
Won’t be using Tattoodo because the location services are out of wack so I can’t find tattoo artists’ work in my city anyway

Feels like Tattoodo is still in its growing stage, but has huge potential. Couple of things I noticed: 1. Biography? I don’t know if anyone else can see my full Bio but I can only see a limited portion of it. I would recommend either creating a word count on it or fixing it. Great concept though! 2. Artist Artwork Style. I’m a person looking to get my next Horror & Surrealism tattoo, I wanna know which artists specialize in that! And the pics to prove it! There should be a feature to look up artists that specialize in a certain style or even a certain topic! That’s all I’ve noticed so far.

I absolutely love the functionality of Tattoodo! It is super accessible and amazing to help you plan your upcoming tattoos or figure out what styles of tattoos you love. I think that Tattoodo could improve in one simple way; Adding the feature to describe a tattoo board that you’ve made, I really like to explain what symbolism a tattoo may have OR share where the specific tattoos I’m composing in the board would be. I feel this feature would make Tattoodo ideal!

I got Tattoodo a few months ago to plan out my tattoos. It’s got a clean interface, a pretty good search system, and a really cool daily tattoo showcase.
But sometimes.. the language goes into automatic mode, and for me that makes Tattoodo into Spanish. I’m not sure how it chooses what language is automatic, but they were right since I do speak Spanish. Still weird though.
Nice app, 9/10, will continue to use

The artists work sometimes come up on my feed but not on their profile aswell as when I save something it doesn’t show in the folder I place it in aswell as has a terrible refreshing mechanism when trying to refresh folder to bring in new saved images. I’ve read the same issues from reviews in early January. Going into March and having the same issues is quite sad with how much potential Tattoodo has for new comers and artists alike. please fix!

This is the first time I’ve ever made a review and Tattoodo has a lot of potential but it’s kind of annoying how between the desktop website and Tattoodo there are certain differences that make it a bit painful to keep using.

An example being saving some thing to a folder on your desktop but then checking Tattoodo and for some reason it’s not there and vice versa.

Another annoying thing is how you will save or like things and how your save or like folder will be missing certain things or will be nonexistent entirely yet when you manually look for the thing that you saved or liked it still indicates that it’s saved or liked it.

This ad genuinely has a lot of potential but these shortcomings make it somewhat annoying and painful to use.

Tattoodo was absolutely perfect when I downloaded it. I’m not sure what happened but it won’t load more than a couple pictures on anyone’s profiles so you’re forced to search by tattoo or areas. This includes my profile and all of my saved pictures. Hope this can be fixed soon as I would love to give u guys 5 stars. Please look into this issue. Thank you.

Tattoodo is fantastic! I knew next to nothing about tats before I got mine and had no idea what to look for in a good artist. I was steered towards this app by my friend Joe Letz and I ended up getting two amazing small wrist pieces done by Brittany Rusznak at Black Fern in Cincinnati. They had great personal significance to me and I wanted them to be perfect, and she delivered—I’m so glad I found her through Tattoodo !

I have made some progress on a tattoo I’ve wanted for awhile. I discovered a good shop near me with some great artists. But I have yet to pull the trigger.
I thought artist responses to my tattoo proposal would be more personalized and sincere. However, all artist responses so far are 100% generic and likely what they send to anyone with a tattoo proposal.
As a middle-man in this process, I’m not sure this app has given any real value to get a $$$ cut off a project, etc.

Can’t check on the status of your profile to see if you’re a “pro” account or not. I also find it difficult to find where the classes are which is frustrating since it’s the only reason I did subscribe

Tattoodo is cool! My only two complaints is that for some reason, the menu buttons at the bottom of the screen are half way cut off. At first glance I wasn’t sure which button did what until I tapped them and found it. Another complaint I have is that if I am browsing the images and switch to a different app for a short period of time and return back to the this app app, it refreshes me back to the home screen. Kind of a pain, other than that, it’s dope 👍🏼

I love the potential for Tattoodo. The feedback I have is the responsiveness of tattoo artists as well as support in the chat is so far, nonexistent. I posted a job with no response. Also wanted to add additional photos for inspiration for the tattoo and can’t. Support chat has been open for days with no response. Again, this has sooo much potential to be the perfect app for tattoo canvasses looking for their perfect tattoo done by local artists, just not there yet.

There should be a section where you can see the tattoos you liked before. Also, add option to filter when you’re searching such as colored tattoos or minimalist and such. When users add their tattoos they’ll specify whether it’s just a black tattoo or whether it’s greek, mythological, religous etc. or they can just leave those options blank.

As a lifelong tattoo enthusiast, I love this app. It’s my favorite place to look for inspiration and amazingly talented artists. My only complaint is that it can feel like a smaller pool than some other major social media tattoo posts. That being said though, Tattoodo is very easy to use and has beyond incredible content, definitely my favorite spot for tattoo content.

I honestly was stuck trying to find a new tattoo idea until I came across Tattoodo. I used to use Pinterest to get my ideas but never really felt comfortable with it but now my stressed is lifted because I can finally choose from all these tattoos to get inspired. Thank you very much!

Tattoodo is amazing, I use it a lot to get ideas and there are a lot of great ones here. But the new search system makes it a bit harder to find. Before you used to be able to actually choose what body part to too look for but that feature was removed, I think they should bring it back, it would be 10x better!

I love Tattoodo! I’ve had it less than a day and have already found multiple tattoo shops near me and found many ideas! It’s a must have if you love tattoos or have a tattoo craving but are unsure of what you want, Tattoodo is for you!

Some user that may seem like they are looking to get a tattoo are actually spammers. As they state the reasoning budget . You reach out and they sent a message they found a better artist with a better quote and still have the same post asking the same picture since weeks later . Clientele are marketers for Tattoodo to make you believe these are customers looking to get Tattooed. This is just my review.

I tried it out and found that 99% of people are just cheap, don’t understand tattooing at all and are getting a poor representation of how we do business, and most of all, they’re all price shopping.

It’s not good for tattooers... it’s not good for the industry or the General public coming into the tattoo world for the first time. If there ever was an overproduced systemic hybridized version of consulting with tattooers that completely dumbed down and removed the integrity that accompanies showing face, Tattoodo is it.

It’s another avenue for non tattooers to profit off this industry.

it’s more catered to the clientele side and doesn’t really help people understand how we as tattooers do business, rather enables them to completely side-step that process and take the entitlement approach.

Not really writing a bad review but can one of Tattoodo admins or developers help me understand, why on a browser its english but Tattoodo is spanish? Like... i even deleted to redownload it but its still in spanish.

I listened to an interview with Ami James stating that he got rid of the likes to make Tattoodo less like instagram but there are likes and comments very similar to instagram. The worst thing ive noticed from Tattoodo is the bidding style tattoos that customers ask for. They put up cheap quotes on tattoos that they have no basis for understanding the price and rates of and theyre gonna get cheap artists or scratchers responding to them. Seems like it just is a place for cheap tattoos to be auctioned and found 🤷🏻‍♂️

As an artist on here the tattoo inquiries are somewhat of a joke. They send pictures with out descriptions and among those pictures I’ve received completely non tattoo-able images, pictures of men in their underwear(no tattoos) and even a picture of what looked like someone’s dinner. Among inquiries that seemed serious and I replied to, there have been no client responses. The problem here is that there are barely, if any at all, serious clients. All the serious clients are on Instagram.

App is great. Especially the concept on it. It’s like a dream tattoo social media. Just wish it wasn’t so laggy and more streamlined. Also wish more people and artists knew about it. It would be cool if it had a timeline style
