We're not scared of Friday the 13th over here at DoLA. What could possibly be unlucky about some tattoo deals?

Instead of dreading the cursed day, celebrate with these tattoo specials at some of our favorite shops in Los Angeles. Whether you want to be impulsive or have been planning new ink for some time now, there's a spot for you. We've provided some flash sheets and updated our guide with offers taking place on Friday, December 13 at participating locations.

Please note: We recommend checking out each tattoo shop's individual Instagram or website for the most up-to-date designs, flash sheets, and prices before you get your ink!
