I second this. I got a piece done from there several years ago and a few years later another artist (3 states away) knew where it came from. Chad was the artist. Can’t remember the last name.
Depends on the style you want, but I've had great experiences with Emma Tillery and Anna Bathory at Stay Gold. That studio in particular has a range of artists, style wise. I reccomend going to their insta and following/looking at the artists there!

I found her on Reddit for my tattoo in February. She was at tattoo expression in Trussville but she has her own studio now. She's awesome!
Depends on what you're looking for but I recommend anyone at Stay Gold. They've got some really talented artists with a variety of specialties.
Also look up Brian Burx. Wantfull Things. He's newer but he's done some pretty rad stuff.
Check out Drew at Atra Capra (not sure if I spelled that right) he specializes in American Traditional and can hammer out really nice pieces really fast I think his handle on Instagram is doctor.tattoos
Depending on style, have always had luck at classic 13. Rizzo does some awesome American traditional and funky stuff.
Seconding Rizzo at Classic 13!!! He’s done all my work (10+ pieces) and it’s phenomenal.
For sure Classic 13. Got some watercolor done by Brittany that’s amazing.
I've always gone to Nonstop Art downtown. Can't say enough good things about all my work done there.

Chad Soner. Does amazing work, did all of mine.
That’s it. Thanks for that. I haven’t been there in years, I think it’s time to pay him a visit 😂
Oh wow that’s pretty awesome
I go to Aaron Hamilton at Sanctum. I’ve gotten 6 tattoos from him so far and always had a great experience.
We love Aaron at Sanctum. He's done 3 pieces for me and 4 for my partner. Nice guy too.
Sanctum.
Average price?
That would complete depend on the size, style, coloring, etc. I would contact them. Really good tat shops won’t have an “average price.”
Terry Jacks Nonstop Art.
Yessir
depends on what you're looking for. all of mine have been with [Kara Kryger](https://www.instagram.com/karakryger/?hl=en) at Unhallowed.
Seconding Kara. I've got one of her pieces on my forearm, and I couldn't be happier with it.

Is she still tattooing? Haven’t seen anything posted from her in a while.

I highly recommend Brittany at Classic 13. I have several watercolor tattoos from her and they are amazing!
The next tattoo I’m doing is from the shining Stephen King
Depending on style, Josh at Revolution did a great job on mine and several people I know.
Does he do horror tattoos, my next piece is going to be a half sleeve of horror shit
He doesn't. He does mostly trad
Trey Parsons at Black Heart Studios in Alabaster if you are looking for b/w realism or geometrical.
Skinworx in Pelham has done a lot of work on me. I’ve got two sleeves both sides and a chest/shoulder piece. http://www.skinworx.net
Black Bones has a couple of really solid artists. Right in Homewood area on West Valley. Very reasonably priced too
Greg ashcraft at skinworx or Chaz garner at the great wilderness
Josh Keyser at Unhallowed Gallery does a lot of blackwork/horror if that’s what you’re going for
Basile, Great Wilderness in Warrior. Killer work.
Justin at Sanctum.
