Why choose Oly Anger Tattoo for a walk-in?
Expert artists on hand
Our team brings together artists with a wide range of styles and experience: realism, fine line, blackwork, traditional, anime. Whatever design you choose, it’s done with precision and creativity. Fine detail, bold lines or bright colour: there’s an artist for your idea.
Convenient and flexible
The big advantage of a walk-in is simplicity: no need to book months ahead. Drop by the studio, talk through your idea with an artist and get tattooed the same day. Perfect for a spontaneous decision or a busy schedule.
A welcoming atmosphere
We want every client to feel at ease. A friendly team and a relaxed setting help first-timers and seasoned collectors alike feel at home. Our team speaks English and French.
Strict hygiene standards
Safety comes first. The studio follows rigorous sterilization protocols: all equipment is sanitized and needles are single-use, so you can get tattooed with peace of mind.
What to expect when you walk in
- Consultation and design: when you arrive, you talk with an artist about your idea, your preferences and the details that matter to you. They help you finalize a design that matches your vision, or you pick a ready-to-tattoo flash.
- Preparation and tattooing: once the design is approved, the artist sets up their station and makes sure all equipment is sterile. Depending on complexity, the session takes anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.
- Aftercare guidance: at the end, the artist explains in detail how to care for your tattoo. These instructions are essential for good healing; they’re also in our aftercare guide.
Our tips for a smooth walk-in
- Come early in the day: walk-ins are served first come, first served, and weekends are the busiest.
- Bring a reference: a photo, sketch or screenshot helps the artist understand your idea. You can also pick a flash design at the studio.
- Go for a small or medium piece: large work, like a sleeve or a realistic portrait, is planned in a consultation.
- Eat beforehand and skip alcohol the night before: you’ll handle the session better. All our tips are in how to prepare.
- Bring valid ID: the studio is 18+ only.
What our clients say
“My wife and I came to Montreal for a business trip mixed with some pleasure. We wanted to get tattoos to commemorate the trip. I found this shop after doing some google reviews and then stopping in and looking at the artists’ portfolios. They were super friendly and enjoyed talking about tattoos and styles. We loved the tattoos we got and were able to work with Karl W. to design a little something. Cannot wait to go back.”
“Great shop and experience! Super professional, high quality artists who truly care for the craft and clientele. Clean welcoming environment, hassle free. My partner and I stopped in while vacationing in Montreal and couldn’t be happier we did.”
