About Our Tattoo Studio
The Tattoo Studio Wilmington, DE Trusts
Tainted Flesh Body Art North is a professional tattoo studio at 1707 Concord Pike, Wilmington, DE 19803. Our team carries over 20 years of combined tattooing experience. We serve clients from across New Castle County — Brandywine Park, the Delaware River waterfront, Pike Creek, and beyond.
Every tool we touch is single-use. We run autoclave sterilization on all reusable surfaces. Our studio uses only vegan-safe pigments, which means no animal-derived ingredients in any ink we apply. Your skin deserves that care.

Our artists work in custom tattoo design, flash art, cover-ups, bold color work, and fine line styles. You bring the idea. We take it from a rough concept to a finished drawing you approve before anything touches your skin. No guesswork. No surprises.
We also have talented female tattoo artists on staff. Many of our clients — especially first-timers — appreciate the option. Our studio keeps the environment welcoming and judgment-free for everyone who walks through the door.

Tattoo Shop FAQs — Wilmington, DE
There is no single price — it depends on size, detail, and how long the session runs. Small pieces start at our studio minimum. Bigger custom work gets priced after a free consultation. Call us at (302) 553-7213 or stop in and we will give you a straight number, no pressure.
Yes — every artist at our studio holds a current Delaware state tattoo license. We meet all state health and safety requirements for professional body art. You can ask to see credentials when you come in. We have nothing to hide.
Both work. Walk-ins are fine for flash pieces and smaller work when we have an open slot. Custom tattoos and body piercing need a scheduled appointment so we can prep your design properly. When in doubt, call ahead — it saves you a wasted trip.
Yes. We have experienced female artists on staff who specialize in fine line work, botanical designs, and illustrative styles. Just say you would prefer a female artist when you book — we will make it happen.
Tainted Flesh Body Art North at 1707 Concord Pike, Wilmington, DE 19803 is open Tuesday through Saturday, noon to around 9pm, and Sunday noon to 6pm. We are closed Mondays. Call (302) 553-7213 to confirm availability before you head over.
We do. Every pigment in our studio is vegan-safe — no animal-derived ingredients in any color we use. This is a studio-wide standard, not an add-on you have to request.
Eat a real meal before you come in — not a snack, a proper meal. Drink plenty of water the day before and the morning of. Wear clothing that gives easy access to the area getting tattooed. Skip alcohol for at least 24 hours beforehand. That is most of it. We walk you through the rest when you arrive.
Yes. Cover-ups are not one-size-fits-all. We look at your existing ink first — the density, the size, the placement — then design something that actually works with it. We do not just drop a dark patch on top and call it done.
Yes. We do professional body piercing using implant-grade jewelry and sterile single-use needles. Book a piercing appointment in advance — walk-ins for piercing depend on who is available that day.
Keep it clean, keep it moisturized, and keep it out of direct sun while it heals. Do not soak it in water — no pools, no long baths. Do not pick at the skin as it peels. We send every client home with a written aftercare guide and the products we recommend. You will not be guessing.
