1st Place: Skin Prints
2nd Place: A Brand New Tattoo
3rd Place: Midwest Tattoo

Tattoos are things that people are sometimes reluctant to get at first, but then when you do, it’s hard to stop. They are like potato chips; beautiful, permanent potato chips. Skin Prints is Eau Claire’s longest running tattoo shop. Having recently moved to a new location on Farwell Street, Skin Prints produces quality work in a professional atmosphere. Located on South Barstow Street, A Brand New Tattoo continues the perma-inking tradition as a new face in a familiar space. Conveniently named for the best part of our fine country, Midwest Tattoo caps off Water Street with a professional atmosphere and walls coated with pictures of skin art sprawled all over people that you may very well recognize from around town. There has never been a better time to get that motorcycle-riding Yoda on your arm, and there have never been so many solid establishments in which to do it. – Aryn Widule
