Shanghai Tattoo

Shanghai Tattoo was founded in 2007 in Shanghai, China, by the world-renowned tattoo artist Zhuo Dan Ting, also known as Ms. Ting. Over the years, Shanghai Tattoo has earned international acclaim, with features in prestigious publications like CNN, Inked Magazine, and Skin Art Magazine to name just a few. It has also been recognized in numerous articles as one of the top 20 iconic tattoo shops worldwide.

In 2018, Ms. Ting expanded her artistic vision by opening Ms. Ting's Shanghai Tattoo in Historic Folsom, CA, USA. This high-end tattoo and piercing studio quickly became a cherished part of the Folsom community, known for its exceptional artistry and commitment to quality. In 2024, Shanghai Tattoo reached a significant milestone by purchasing their own building at 305 Wool Street, Folsom, CA, further establishing their presence in the area.

Our studio is home to a talented team of resident tattoo artists and a skilled piercer, each specializing in distinct styles that offer clients a wide range of tattoo options. Our artists excel in various styles, from large-scale to smaller-scale tattoos, including Japanese and Chinese traditional, black and grey photorealism, color realism, custom Chinese calligraphy, American traditional, neo-traditional, geometric, blackwork, bio-mech, watercolor, fine-line, and more.

While we primarily operate by appointment, we strive to accommodate walk-ins whenever possible. To ensure availability, we recommend calling ahead. At Shanghai Tattoo, we are dedicated to serving our community and clients with the highest standards of tattooing and piercing, and we look forward to many more years of excellence in Folsom, CA.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Tough to put into words the experience we had at Ms. Ting’s Shanghai Tattoo. It was a very emotional and sensitive time for my wife and I as she got a memorial tattoo for our son who recently passed away. Christian Urias was particularly responsive to her ideas and created and absolute beautiful piece of artwork on her arm. We are extremely grateful that this shop is in our town and their care and professionalism was so appreciated. We will return for more work very soon.

    Quick, easy, and very understanding. Listened to exactly what I wanted and just ran with it. Facility was really nice and clean, I will definitely be coming here a lot and recommend it to anyone who is looking. Yes their wait times are long but you have it for life so just be patient; it's worth the wait.

  • Beautiful shop love the aesthetic. The owners were awesome and made you feel welcome, it did not feel like a cool guy contest in this tattoo shop. They also have some very talented artists working here definitely go check the shop out. I was tattooed be Levi Miller, I wanted something pretty weird and he drew it up exactly as I wanted it and tattooed it perfectly had a great experience.

    Ting is one of the most amazing world-talents to come to Northern California. She is not simply a tattoo artist but an artist who does tattoos. The range of styles is limitless, whether you want old school or traditional Japanese or ultra-realism portraiture. The shop is immaculate, the artists are professional and friendly, the prices are fair, and the tattoos are world-class and will hold up for years. You'd be a fool to go anywhere else.

    This is the ONLY place I’ll go the get my tattoos done! It’s very clean, the staff is great, and very inviting! Ms Ting did a stellar job on my tattoos! She has freehanded a couple of pieces on my and I couldn’t be happier. Her artistic eye is out of this world 👽! Be sure to check out there Instagram page to see the work that comes out of there from the other artists as well. You will not be disappointed!

    This was my first tattoo and I searched for years to find an artist who truly understood the concepts of Asian traditional art. Ms. Ting is so skilled and such a cool person to talk with too. The tat was designed after talking with me about the concept I had in mind and was far better than I had even imagined it. Since it was a full sleeve, a lot of the work was free-hand and you would never know it! I will return for future ink!!
