TOP-10 TATTOO STUDIOS IN KIEV 2025
Rating of the Best Tattoo Studios in Kyiv from Ukrainian Business Award
Tattoo culture in Kyiv has transformed from a niche art into one of the most popular areas of self-expression in recent years. The capital has become the center of the industry, where new studios are opened every year, and competition is growing not only in aesthetics, but also in service, hygiene levels and professionalism of masters. Ukrainian Business Award 2025 has prepared an analytical rating of the best studios in Kyiv, which demonstrate the highest level of quality, comfort and trust of customers.
The diversity of masters is the key to the versatility of the studio. The undisputed leader is VeAn Tattoo, which offers 24 masters, including classic, color, realistic and medical tattoos, as well as training programs for masters. In second place is Lamarch Tattoo with 9 masters, who combine modern techniques and creative solutions. Tsegla (6) and White Sharks Tattoo (5) hold stable positions, while Tattoo Time, Alliance Tattoo, Tattoo 044 and No Mercy have 4 each, focusing on a clearly defined audience. The smallest but clearly formed team is represented by Fusion Tattoo Studio (3) and Tattoo Studio Katana (2), which focus on individual orders.
The breadth of offerings demonstrates the flexibility and professionalism of the team. VeAn Tattoo once again takes first place — 8 main services, including piercing, tattooing, tattoo removal and correction of old work. White Sharks Tattoo (7) and Tattoo Time (6) provide a full range of services for clients, including after-treatment care. Alliance Tattoo also received 6 points for combining technical skill with quality consulting. Lamarch Tattoo offers 5 services, while Tsegla, Fusion Tattoo Studio, Tattoo 044 have 4 each.

This is followed by Lamarch Tattoo, Fusion Tattoo Studio, White Sharks Tattoo and No Mercy, which consistently attract the audience’s attention.
