Shopping
Go get a tattoo at Good Work Tattoos on 3916 St. Claude Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70117. It’s open 12 PM-8 PM, 7 days a week (504.943.0409). It’s one of the best shops in the country and you can be confident in getting a quality tattoo at a fair price from anyone there (Brent is my favorite). The walls are covered in beautiful paintings that were made by the three tattooers that work there and it’s also one of the friendliest, least pretentious tattoo shops you’ll ever go to.
